IC/OOC: Portree team staff meeting.
Just after 4, Graham calls the meeting to order.

“So, First of all, I want to congratulate everyone on a very good first half of the season. We had rough spots, but we played well against our rivals and are on a good trajectory for the playoffs. We’ll have that and the Neep coming up, so the second half should also be exciting.

“There’s not really a lot to cover, but I didn’t want anyone to feel we had unresolved issues. We’ll discuss the agenda items and then we can open up the flor for last minute items after we hit the planned discussions.

	"Talking" with Cav & Ellie lady_dragon 2017-12-22 01:50 am UTC (link)
	As David pulled Maggie off to the side, Ellie who wasn't going to leave without David as he had work to do, decided not to let Cav get away without first speaking. She at least has the sense to invite him out into the hall to not be in the immediate earshot of those still staying - especially the owners. "So anything you want to share with the class?"

	Cav gave her a shrug. "Seems like Circe did that for me, though I'll maintain I haven't done a thing that would make her cry." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Share glares at him. That is not the answer she was looking for. "So you have done things to her?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Have I 'done things to her?'" Cav laughed, a little. "That sounds downright wretched, Ellie. We're dating. We've been on dates. Together." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ellie looks at Cav as if he has suddenly sprouted tentacles. "And you didn't think that might be something I should know about?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cavallero 2017-12-22 02:09 am UTC (link)
	"I wasn't aware that we were sharing every detail of our personal lives with each other." He looked at her, his eyes dark as he tried to sort out what precisely about this was bothering her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I promised not to punch anyone. I promised not to punch anyone. It is almost a mantra in her head. She will be calm. Or at least a little less prone to violence as usual, especially because Graham is right in the other room - not that he didn't know exactly who she was when they hired her as coach.

This Ellie MacFusty is practically calm compared to her younger, player version.

Instead she gets up in his face in, placing both her hands on either side of her face, but not technically touching, shaking them in frustration. "You just don't think do you?"

	Cav straightened, squaring his shoulders and putting his hands on her upper arms to steady them both, feeling the energy pulse off of her. "Ellie," he said, "me dating a medic for another team isn't something to be this concerned about," he said as calmly as he could. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Don't punch him. Don't punch him. You could slap him. But don't punch him. She closed her eyes for a moment, taking a deep breath in. Elie couldn't help but think that Maggie would be proud of her. If Maggie was actually talking to her. But she thought she was very braw. "Except you're fucking Florrie." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cavallero 2017-12-22 02:44 am UTC (link)
	He couldn't help but wince. Not because of other word choice but because of the look in her eye. He lowered his voice a notch. "Why do you care who I sleep with?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lady_dragon 2017-12-22 02:49 am UTC (link)
	"FLORRIE. The Montrose. Medic." Her voice is low, meeting his volume, but certainly up the intensity. Rather than slap him, she put her hands on his shoulders and pushed him backward. Hard. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	His shoulder hit the wall with a thud but he kept his balance. "Yes, I'm well aware of who she is," he snapped at her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lady_dragon 2017-12-22 02:54 am UTC (link)
	And as rewarding as that thud was, it wasn't quite the same a punch. Be braw. Be very, very braw. "Do you though? Really?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cavallero 2017-12-22 02:55 am UTC (link)
	"It is part of what dating does, Ellie, offers someone the opportunity to get to know someone else, yes." He rubbed his shoulder and rolled his neck a bit. "Now, are you going to tell me what this is really about or are you just going to hit me?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lady_dragon 2017-12-22 03:01 am UTC (link)
	Ellie took a big breath again considering her options. After all, he had given her very clear options. Speak or slap -- and yes, slap because she would not punch him. Instead she took the middle road and pushed him back into the wall again. Not nearly as rewarding as the first time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He caught her wrist in his hand. "Do we need to go to my office before this gets out of hand?" he asked her, his mouth twisting in an effort not to react to the shove. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lady_dragon 2017-12-22 03:08 am UTC (link)
	He may have caught one wrist, but not both. It was reflex, to wind up her other and move to slap him. Benefits of being ambidextrous. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cavallero 2017-12-22 03:11 am UTC (link)
	He took the also well, at least he thought so, anticipating it and snapping his face to the side at the brunt of it. He dropped her arm to rub his jaw. "Right," he said. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lady_dragon 2017-12-22 03:16 am UTC (link)
	"Good talk," she said. Ellie stepped away from him. Careful not to turn her back. She poked her head back into the meeting room, not caring if David was done talk with Maggie or not. "Alright, David, get your gear back on, we got training to get to." And it might as well be like nothing had happened. And really it didn't. There was zero punching. (Reply to this) (Parent)
