When: Early Afternoonish
Where: Courtyard, to start
Rating: TBD
Status: Complete

Bones had spent her second day holed up in her room slash lab. She didn't want to give anyone anything to observe. But if there were cameras in her room somewhere, it didn't make a bit of difference if she stayed there or went outside. So, this morning, she had decided that being observed or not, she was going to try to figure out where she was, and why she'd been brought here.

She showered, put on a fresh set of clothes. Clothes that were her style, and filled her drawers and closet. She didn't know where they'd come from, but her rebellion didn't extend to being dirty and wearing clothes two days in a row. She left her hair down, knowing that today was probably not going to produce any work for her. Wearing an outfit she might wear if she went out on a dig, jeans and a tanktop and hiking shoes, she exited her room.

She wasn't exactly sure where to start, but she figured that the plaque she'd been shown the first day was as good as anything. She walked down the hall, down the stairs and out of the building. She was almost thrown back by the sensation that hit her as soon as she inhaled. She blinked rapidly and shook her head like she'd just been struck in the face with a bat.

She could smell something faintly on the air, but it didn't register as anything odd. But she was starting to feel ... good. And it was strange considering she'd left her room in a rather irritated mood. She shook it off and headed for the courtyard where the plaque had been. She wanted to re-read it and try to make some sense of the situation.

She rounded the corner of the building and came face to face with another woman. "Sorry." She glanced into her face, blue eyes meeting her own and smiled. And then it happened, that gut wrenching feeling of love. What the hell?

She nodded slightly, deciding just to accept what the other said, and not question it. Bit of a touchy subject, she supposed, and not her place to pry. If Brennen had wanted to know more she would've said so, right? Ace took her own drink, looking at it curiously. As odd as it may seem, she'd never actually had Starbucks before or anything like the frappuccino, not a big coffee drinker in general. Not to mention she generally spent time in eras before the chain and drink were created, or long afterwards where there were more interesting things to do then sit around in coffee shops.

"Yeah...but somethings are just out of your control." She took a sip of the cold drink, and deciding they were pretty good before setting it back down. "Emotions are one of them. Especially not when they are being --" Ace paused to think of the right word; manipulated sounded too sinister for something encouraging love, and enhanced just wasn't right either..." -- Influenced." Good enough.

The brunette smiled back, and gave a small shake of her head at the apology. "No need to be sorry, gorgeous. I underst --" Ace was cut off as Tempe's lips met her own. It caught her off guard, but that was hardly a bad thing. She quickly forgot what she'd been saying, letting an arm snake around Bones' waist to pull her closer before she broke the kiss. Judging her reaction wouldn't be too hard either, as she promptly leaned forward to steal another kiss. Couldn't let her think that last one was the best she could do, having been surprised the first go.
