Extremely Exhausted Starters

“You. Rest. Now.”

“You took five steps and need to sit down again?”

“I’m absolutely fine, I just need to sit down.”

“I just need to sit-what do you mean I’m already laying down?”

“Your eyes aren’t focusing. Just close them for ten minutes.”

“Write one sentence on this piece of paper, and then I’ll let you up.”

“I just need a breather, that’s all. Maybe ten. No fifteen.”

“We’re both so exhausted we can’t even argue about not being exhausted.”

“When I said I needed five more minutes I meant it more like hours.”

“… no… I’m tired… let me sleep… I don’t want to get up.”

“We need to get out of the heat, you’re starting to look sick.”

“You can’t hide those shaking hands from me. You need to stop.”

“I’m just a little cold, I’m okay, really. Let me sit with a blanket or something.”

“Moving…? No I’m good thanks.”

“Gravity has a hold on me of which I have not the strength to break.”

“Was… was that actually there? That wasn’t there was it?”

“I’ve had no energy for three days.”

“You worked yourself so hard that you’ve been sentenced to three days of bed rest.”

“Listen I can… I can get up. It’s fine.”

“If we’re both in this state, we both really screwed up somewhere huh?”

“I have energy for exactly one more person of favourable standing, and going the hell to bed. With or without that person, bed is happening.”

“You’ve struggled to move anything for the last hour.”

“This is what happens when you over exert yourself.”

“You were almost dead from pushing it too far!”

“I went a little overboard sure… but I’m still alive. So shh.”

Welcome|| @agentgaete

Emrys froze mid-step, green eyes focused solely on the man standing in front of him. He wasn’t supposed to be here. He knew it. The gods knew it. This agent probably also knew it. But it was lunch time and he wanted to bring his fiancé some food. It wasn’t his fault that SHIELD didn’t allow unscheduled visits.

“Hi…just dropping off a package and then I’ll be on my way.”

The demigod winced at the obvious lie, one day he had to figure out how to do that…

[agentgaete]

Mateo is often inattentive to his own needs, consumed with his work he’ll often forget that his body needs sustenance to survive but today he’d remember to get himself to the cafeteria at a decent time and was walking back in with one hand curled around a coke and his other with a bag held from his fingertips, but when he opened the door to his office he wasn’t meant with the usual emptiness of it, wasn’t witness to use the equations drawn upon chalk across his wall, no there was a person there, an unknown to him person, a person without an access badge. 

He’s a shield agent, sure, but is he? He’s just a glorified engineer and tech right? Not exactly the brave in the face of ‘danger’ type so his eyes widen as he watches the other man. “I’m not expecting a package.” He didn’t read people entirely well but he knew well enough that it was a lie. “Unless you’re interested in analytic geometry I don’t know why you’d be in here?” He’s oddly calm even if he has eyed his phone a few times. 

[agentsanders]

@agentgaete started following

"I'm so sorry, sir." Nathan apologized as the other bumped into him on the hallway and Nathan quickly bend down to pick up his papers again.

[agentgaete]

In truth Mateo really should have been paying far better attention to where he was going, his eyes were on the phone in his hand, reading a requisition request that had just come in and letting his feet lead him by memory alone. When they’d bumped into each other his step faltered for a moment and he moved to lean down to help him gather up the sheets. “I think the fault really is on both of us here.” He held up his phone as a silent explanation. “No harm but really, Mateo, please, sir is very…. I’m a spy in a suit.” He changed his tone to something deeper and mocking, “When I’m a nerd in jeans.” 

[agentgaete]

"You're barely staying upright. You need to lie down, they can function without you long enough for you to take a nap."

for muses who don't understand the meaning of the phrase ' take a break ' ...

In truth he likely should have gone home hours ago, resigned to his exhaustion and collapsed on his sofa before making it up to his bed but unlike the rest of the building scientific Minds tended to lack the ability to stop once they were activated. He’d noticed when the archer had come in but he’d only turned his head slightly away from the old school blackboard as he brushed some sweat off his forehead and replaced it with chalk dust. But he knows the other man makes a valid point, his legs seem heavier than usual and his eyes are so strained he’d even abandoned his glasses on his desk, hours ago. “You know the spinning wheel of doom on computers? Pretty sure my brain has reached that stage. Maybe you have a point."

"Why don't you just sleep?"

"Hey... hey! You're dozing off, again."

"I brought you something to eat / drink."

"The work will still be here after you rest."

"You haven't moved since I left, have you?"

"Stand up, walk around the table, at least."

"Put down the pen. You can finish that later."

"Yeah, you'll get this done, but at what cost?"

"I don't like when you get lost in work like this."

"Close your laptop. I'm mandating you a break."

"You really don't know how to take it easy, do you?"

"You have a headache? Have you had any water lately?"

"Working yourself into the ground isn't going to help anyone."

"I'm worries about you. You look like you haven't slept in days."

"If you're gonna keep working, do you at least want some coffee?"

"When was the last time you had something to eat? Or a shower?"

"Of course your eyes hurt, you've been staring at the screen for hours."

"You fell asleep on your paperwork. You need to take some time for yourself."

"You're barely staying upright. You need to lie down, they can function without you long enough for you to take a nap."

Innovation is one of the things that Mateo essentially lives for and he likes a challenge that seems outright impossible to achieve. After vaguely watching some footage while he was working weeks ago and spotting her window bites he’d been inspired and perhaps a touch obsessed so to work he went. 

He smirked as she looked over the new and improved pair, “So approved then?” He grinned, he’d made quite the bit of modifications to the new design, they almost look like something entirely different. Smaller and yet they are so much further advanced, going so far as the upper part housing a capsule of sorts, nano tech that would result in those electric batons she used to favor coming out when the bites were spent. 

[agentgaete]

“You should probably invest in a coat then.” Q nodded to himself. A week and a half was a lot of rain in London, especially when it had been sunny previously - that was always a sign of rain. Or maybe he was just superstitious at this point. His creator would be irritated that he was capable of such a thing. The idea made him smile to himself.

“Yes, I can’t say London is a great destination when looking for sun. It does have its moments though! You might be lucky. Are you going to go and do the touristy stuff? The galleries are nice. And the museums. Sometimes I go and wander around them. I think I have most of the tours memorised at this point.” He mused, just thinking aloud and not realising how much that sounded like an offer.

He’d more than resigned to the fact that his coat couldn’t keep up with the rain and sure he lived in New York but this was a whole different ballpark of rain and he’d come to the realization that he’d never have a shirt that was dry if he didn’t invest in a new coat. ‘Probably should.” He agreed without hesitating. “Any recommendations?” Sure he’s a technologically adept man he could just google and find a store near enough but what’s the fun in that. 

Mateo chuckled lightly at his the comment, “Yeah, I gathered that much.” He looked at him, naturally taking it exactly as an offer, “Well.” He started as he looked at him, a soft smile on his lips, ‘I wouldn’t mind a tour if you’re free.” He added the later part just In case it hadn’t really been an offer, ‘Mateo by the way, don’t think we’ve been properly introduced.” 

[agentgaete]

resignedworkaholics​:

 Q paused for a moment as he felt Marcus’ amusement and realised what he had just done. “Oh.” He bit his lip but then allowed himself to nod. “Sure, okay. I can show you around a little.” He agreed, as though he didn’t have the entire city memorised down to unmapped passages and the whole of the sewer system. It was just handy to know.

“Mateo… Nice to meet you, everyone just calls me Q.” He smiled shyly back and then returned his eyes to the window. “Now… Recommendations on coats… Something light because the weather in summer here swaps from raining to boiling in 5 minutes, perhaps I should have focused my efforts in life on being a meteorologist. It seems frustratingly changeable.” He laughed to himself.

There’s a slight falter in Mateo’s smile, just a little quirk down at the corner when Q had responded with an oh and he starts to wonder if he had in fact read that wrong. But then a smile on the others lips and the agreement came and that touch of worry faded away into the hole it had climbed out of. “Yeah?” He nodded, “Good, I’m gonna be honest, didn’t know where to start.” And in truth he hadn’t, sure he’d been talked into making it a vacation but he’d only really planned around the little convention not the actual vacation part of it. 

“Nice to meet you too, Q.” Of course he assumes the singular letter for the others name is a nickname of sorts but not in any way the most odd he’d come across. “Light, waterproof, functional. Easy enough in theory.” He chuckled. “You’ve got the face for it, on air meteorologist.” Subtle Mateo, very subtle… “But understandably, weather patterns can be fairly interesting nearly as complex as code when you think about it.” 

[agentgaete]

resignedworkaholics​:

“It’s fine.” Q said with a small smile, glad to know other people could also start running along those lines of thought even if Marcus thought it was stupid. What was stupid was talking out loud to his ‘dead’ host on the edge of a conference but after days of being cooped up, Marcus was incredibly bored and Q could feel it.

“There are some very good waterproof coats you can buy that don’t even get wet, it just all falls off. They’re just usually not very comfy, nor fashionable.” He noted, too fond of his own coat to get a better one. The thickness and weight were comforting and familiar. “When do you go home? Only another day of this-” He gestured to the mingling people. “But lots of people stay for longer, especially if it’s a long trip.”

There’s something to be said when someone else understands the complexities of technological rambling, most people would find it ridiculous, or outright insane but other likeminded individuals, well it’s rare. Mateo nodded, an action followed up with a slight grin as he looked at the other man. 

“Functionality over fashion is something I’m more than willing to sacrifice for.” Not that he had the most keen sense of fashion in the first place, really the man basically lived in blue jeans, well, when he could get away with it. “Ah, about a week and a half from now? I’ve been talked into a vacation, would have preferred some sunshine but I guess you win some and lose some?”

“Ok, well now that you explain it that actually made sense. Am I learning your language? Do I count as bilingual now? Or did I get bit and I’m becoming a WereAmerican? A… A Weremerican? Well, that’s just bollocks.” 

She tried to imagine herself with an American southern accent and a look of disgust suddenly plastered itself onto her face.

Mateo is a man of science, one who thinks in numbers more than words so he’s never paid too much attention to the idiosyncrasies of speech and yet he’s slowly realizing it’s interesting enough. Well, at least when you can tease each other whilst also attempting to understand each other. 

His chuckle is genuine and confused as he looks at her while shaking his head, “You sure as hell ain’t one of the more serious suit types ‘round here.” He teased. “Weremerican, I don’t even know what to say to that.”  

[agentgaete]

buildersxtea​:

agentgaete​:

“Imma act like I know what you said there, I mean first part, completely do but the last bit.” He shook his head, his brows creased in momentary confusion. “Come on my accent ain’t as thick as yours.” 

“Never heard that expression, naw, bullshit, you’re yanking my chain.” He chuckled, “no way that taking the piss is an actual sayin.” He teased playfully. “I dunno um you ever heard he’s all hat an no cattle?’ 

Kitt pressed her lips together, furrowing her brow, like she was about to ask a question that started with W but froze. She had no idea even how to ask what that was.

“What… What does the hat represent? Why is there cattle? What does this mean? Who got livestock involved in this equation?”

Of course he’d gone for one of the more southern sayings, hoping that given the crowd in the office she’d not have come across it before. And given that look of confusion he can see he made the right choice, his smile is outright amused and a soft chuckle passes his lips. 

“It ain’t about the hat or the cattle, not really. It’s like saying all talk but no action… the hat and cattle just talking about someone walking round’ town with a cowboy hat on when he can’t tell his ass from his elbow and sure as hell ain’t ranching or farmin’.” Alright there Mateo you’re having way too much fun now.
