Re: Derek/Nell
"That's because you can't see yourself." Nell's smirk only lasted a moment, though before she actually did something she hadn't done in years and blushed faintly at his words. "Hands, Mister," she chided teasingly, then leaned over to give him another kiss on the cheek. "Thank you."
Chuckling, she nodded. "Possibly a very good policy."
Putting her hand on his shoulder, Nell shook his head. "So this wouldn't be the time to point out you're only ten years older than I am?" she teased. Sometimes it was just too easy...and other times he was just infuriating, which was probably why they got on so well. They were never bored. "One pair of fully functional claws, coming up, then. And Troy can be jealous all he likes. I still look better in the costume."
