Day 422 [Closed Action | Chekov]
[Kitty leaves her apartment while it's still dark out. The strange music and fog aren't lost on her. It's giving off strong creepy vibes and adding to the drama of the moment. Clearly, the wardens are up to something today. In fact, she's half expecting raptors as she crosses the dome, but she doesn't let her stop her. She thinks she's feeling clear headed, not that you ever really know until the next day, but in this case she's right. She's also lucky, because there is plenty of nightmare fodder in her mind to play with. Maybe they wanted more of a challenge.

After a brisk walk she reaches Chekov's apartment and knocks on the door, realizing that she's probably waking him at this hour, but she really needs to see him.]

	[She smiles back at him and leans in for another kiss.] I promise the same. I'm sorry if I scared you last night, Pavel. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's fine. You came back. [Pausing for the kissing, which takes precedence over the talking.] I'm sorry for not saying everything sooner. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Like a boomerang. [She nuzzled him.] I think our apologies cancel each other out. Forgiven? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-04-04 12:05 am UTC (link)
	Yes, of course. [She was forgiven before there was anything to be sorry about.] You're the most beautiful boomerang. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think I'd like to meet the second most beautiful boomerang some day. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That would be me. I'm the second. [Why are they allowed to say words, this makes no sense.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She laughs lightly.] You are very beautiful. [And it feels very good to be loved and wanted and to hear sweet, silly things.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Thank you. [It's a good thing she likes it because the forecast calls for more.

He has to just... pause for a moment and let this be real. Kitty loves him. She wants him. She's next to him and smiling and she looks truly, genuinely happy. He should definitely kiss her again before he has a chance to say anything else stupid, but.]

I would follow you anywhere you asked me to, to any universe. Wherever you want to go. [It might be a silly thing to say since she has nowhere else to go. It's never been true before, though, so it's worth being said.]

Disney world? [Teasing. Of course she is going back with him. She has nowhere to offer. But even through the teasing she recognizes this is big. His past relationship ended because they parted ways. She wasn't willing to go with him and he wasn't willing to go with her. His world is important to him. She presses a kiss to his forehead.] Do you think I'd be good in Starfleet?

	For you I would go to Disney World. [Teasing even if he totally would.] You would be incredible in Starfleet, in any division. Better than me if you chose command, probably. No one would think that your powers are strange. There are so many things that I would like you to see. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She kisses him softly.] Didn't end so well for me last time when I started making plans to go to someone else's world. I think I'd like to see those things you have in mind though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-04-06 12:15 am UTC (link)
	[Can kisses be sad? This one is a little sad. He hopes that Kitty won't be afraid to make plans for the future that she most definitely has.] I promise that this will end differently. [Chekov never makes promises that he isn't sure he can keep.] There are a lot of them, it may take a long time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2017-04-06 12:24 am UTC (link)
	I think... I'd like to believe I have that long time. Especially if I get to have that long time with you. [Holding him closer.] Our timing hasn't been great, but maybe it's perfect if we're here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-04-10 12:29 am UTC (link)
	You do. You can have me for as much of that long time as you like. [He would hold her closer in return but they are close enough to make that a very difficult thing to achieve.] I have no complaints about where we are right now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2017-04-10 12:36 am UTC (link)
	Good. Good to both these things. You please me and you pass. I don't know what you pass, but many good things I'm sure. [Kissing him softly.] At the risk of bringing up things that might eventually spur us out of bed... Think we should be worried about the creepy music and fog outside? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-04-10 12:48 am UTC (link)
	You should have warned me that I was being tested. [Kissing back and in absolutely no hurry to be anywhere else.] What? Oh, that. Yes, probably. [A sigh.] Did it seem dangerous to you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

You definitely passed something that wasn't a test. No tests for you. [At least none she gives him knowingly. It wouldn't exactly be outside the realm of reason she'd do that unconsciously. She's been hurt and betrayed and her trust has stretched to it's outermost limits so there is a certain amount of protective instincts that kick in. Like someone who puts up an arm to guard their face when they've been hit a lot. But for her it might be something like pushing them to see if they stick around. It's not a reaction she likes in herself, but she comes by it honestly.]

Mmm...not on it's own. Could just be a weird theme backdrop to something else that is dangerous or maybe what you hear and see is what you get, and it's just eerie day. I expected raptors on the way over. No raptors.

[Hopefully he'll continue passing the unconscious tests, too. Staying around has always been Chekov's primary problem in relationships--romantic, familial, all of them--but that's not an issue here anymore. He's going to stick with Kitty, whatever that ends up meaning for his career at home.]

I like no raptors. [A frown.] You came here in the dark and fog when you thought that there may be raptors? I'm concerned and flattered.

[If he wants her in Star Fleet it may mean taking time off for going back to teach for awhile so she has time to go through the training herself. Or getting her permission to live on the ship and moving with him without officially being Star Fleet. If they manage it there will be things to work out. She wouldn't want to spend that time apart.]

Please. You think a dinosaur stands a chance against me?
