plotted starter for @cosmicstrength ( scarlet & dandy)

Scarlet was fairly certain that if weren’t for all the damn weddings, she could love summer. She’d added a plus one to her RSVP way back when she got the invitation under the desperate hope she’d manage to find someone by the time the date rolled around. And here it was, tomorrow, and she was dateless. The prospect of watching another one of her college buddies get married, while her own love life seemed be stuck in an infinite single loop... she’d rather fake food poisoning. Better than going alone, after she had already asked for a plus one. 

Of course, she guessed, there were other options. One was currently in front of her, she sighed, “That’s a Gucraen,” she said, gesturing to the red hard shell alien. “They’re not rare,” she told him. He really was bad at this. But ... as poor an alien hunter as he was, he could definitely be the answer to her problem. “But don’t leave right away, I want to talk to you,” she said, rising from her seat and flagging down one of her co-workers to take her spot. “Alone,” she said, with a pointed look towards Meow and QT.

❝ i think the heat is getting to me. ❞ -- @cosmicstrength ( scarlet & dandy teen au )

“Oh well I’ve got an easy solution for that,” she said, “come on,” she said, tossing him a water bottle as she got up from the chair she’d been sitting in. The heat was hanging thick in the air. So thick that she was glad she’d begged her dad to let them take out the RV for them to spend their week camping rather than sleep in a tent. A tent would be almost suffocating in this heat. At least the RV had air conditioning. Not that she was heading towards it, nope, why stay cooped up inside when they could do something that was more fun? 

“Luke, Leia,” she called to the dogs, both of them perked up and started following at Scarlet’s heels. “Come on, we’ll all chill off, the lake isn’t that far away. You’ll feel better once you’re in the water,” she promised, as she grabbed two towels off of a clothes line that had been strung up between two trees.

“Is that a new bra?” -- @cosmicstrength (scarlet & dandy) 

“Oh this old thing?” she asked, brushing a deep moss green fingernail against the lace of her black bra, her blue eyes watching his face. She sat, perched on the edge of her bed, one stockinged leg crossed over the other. She bobbed her foot, she’d been waiting for him, for their date night, in her bedroom. Dressed in nothing more than her lingerie, some stockings, and a pair of shiny leather high heels. She smiled at him, red lips pulling upwards. “Yes.”

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 muses are fake dating -- @cosmicstrength ( scarlet & dandy )

It had been more than a little surprising the turn the week had taken. Scarlet had been convinced this little charade wouldn’t make it to the end of the week, or that Dandy wouldn’t. She’d never suspected she’d actually wind up feeling like she was taking a vacation. Or that they’d have anything in common. Or that when he wasn’t catching aliens or flirting with girls at the beach he was ... fun to be around. That he’d make her laugh. Not soft little snorts, but actually laugh. She walked alongside him after the movie, towards the restaurant where they’d have dinner. 

“So where do you fall on the Die Hard Christmas movie debate?” she asked, a crucial question for action movie aficionados. “Personally, I say yes. If it happens during Christmas, it makes it a Christmas movie.”

“Just, uhh, point and shoot.” -- @cosmicstrength ( scarlet & dandy )

Scarlet lifted the ray gun, well she supposed it was a good thing that she had good hand eye coordination. She looked down at her target, no different than serving a tennis ball, or spiking a volleyball, or pitching softball, she was sure of it. “Okay,” she said, she pointed, she shot. The gun wanted to jump in her hands but she kept her grip tight and steady. It hit the target dead on. “Well, that’s not so hard,” she said, smile pulling at her lips as she reached up to brush some hair away from her face.

@cosmicstrength ( scarlet & dandy )

Scarlet soaked in the bath until the water ran cold. It’d been a particularly long and rotten hunt. And the alien had been hell to find, and then catch. She’d gladly accepted when Dandy said he’d take into the ARC himself, while she relaxed. She ran herself a bath, and soaked. She got out pulling on her robe. A replacement to the one she’d long since seemed to loose to Dandy. A long, powder blue silk robe that made her hair only stand out all the brighter. She stepped out to find the lights off and the ship lit up with candles. “Dandy?” she called, following a path of were those rose petals on the ground. She must have been in the bath longer than she thought. 

Her robe trailed on the floor behind her as she crossed the short, candlelit distance to their bedroom. She was going to kiss that sweet, romantic man senseless when she got there. 

But it seemed the romantic atmosphere all had a purpose. A little candlelit dinner, and Dandy, there down on one knee. “What -?” she almost started to ask, but she knew, she knew what this was. Tears clouded her vision as she looked down at him. She waited. She waited until the ring came out. Waited until he asked. Waited because she had to. To be certain. To know. And then she launched herself into his arms. Wrapping her own around his neck as she pressed kisses along his face. “Yes, yes, yes,” she whispered.
