TAKODA: *things have been pretty stressful around the base, in particular for takoda, since europa's attack on earth, but he's still managed to find the time to fuss endlessly over mygale. she's still been moping about meenah after all these perigees. it doesn't feel right, but it seems like one of the few things that cheers her up is sweets, so today he is knocking on the door of her room with his elbow, holding two ice cream cones in his hands.*
TAKODA: HEYYY, MYGALE. 1T'S ME.
TAKODA: AND 1 BROUGHT... 1CE CREEEEAM.
MYGALE: *she didn't respond vocally, 8ut she does open up the door a crack to look at him* Hey there. *she STEPS ASIDE to let him in. Her weight certainly reflected her reliance on sweets to feel good, as she had put on a considera8le amount of weight since Meenah left, particularly in his stomach and thigh areas. She could 8arely even 8ring herself to care a8out it, especially since Takoda kept indulg
MYGALE: ing her sweet tooth anyway.* Ice cream???????? You're too much. ::::) *holds a hand out for her SWEET TREAT*
TAKODA: *he beams a cheesy dorky grin back at her, handing off the cone.* 1 HOPE 1'M NOT TOO MUCH, TO HANG OUT W1TH FOR A L1TTLE B1T? }:o
MYGALE: *she ACCEPTS then goes to lay down on her lil couch thing to lick it in repose* You're close, 8ut far enough you can stick around for a little 8it. *she PATS the couch to invite him on over, even though she's 8asically taking up the couch*
TAKODA: *its okay, it works out. he has a narrow behind that he can fit in the space she's left for him. he plods on over happily and sits himself down, enjoying his ice cream.* SOOO, WHAT'S UP, 1N THE EXC1T1NG L1FE AND T1MES OF MYGALE?
MYGALE: Oh, you know! Plans. Schemes. None of which I've 8een a8le to take into action. *lick lick*
TAKODA: OH, 1 SEE. PLANS, OF THE SCHEM1NG VAR1ETY. *smiles down at her* ANY THAT YOU ARE ACTUALLY, W1LL1NG TO SHARE?
MYGALE: Maaaaaaaay8e. ::::) *sits up some so she can lean in a little*
TAKODA: ... YEEEEEEEEES? *fidgets and blushes as she leans in a little, practically shoving the ice cream cone in his face.*
MYGALE: I'm thinking of going on a lil hunt for awhile. I've 8een hearing rumors a8out a legendary weapon of some kind and was considering taking it for myself! Or... you know... if that wouldn't 8e completely pointless! *lick lick lick*
TAKODA: MMRRF? *pulls the cone away and licks at his lips, frowning at the same time. he looks quite silly.* WHY WOULD THAT BE, A PO1NTLESS ENDEAVOR FOR YOU TO PURSUE?
MYGALE: 8ecaaaaaaaause I'm pro8a8ly never going anywhere? And 8esides, what would I do with it.
TAKODA: WELL... MAYBE THE OTHERS WOULD HAVE AN 1DEA, OF WHAT WE COULD DO W1TH 1T? L1KE, RUTH, MAYBE... EVEN 1F HER SUGGEST1ONS, ARE ALWAYS CRYPT1C, AND WE1RD.
MYGALE: *GROANS and lays 8ack* Yeah, as if SHE'D let me go anywhere. 8ecause what if the weapons fake, huh???????? She'd just SPOIL it.
TAKODA: WELL... 1 GUESS, 1F 1T WAS SUPPOSED TO BE YOUR DEST1NY, OR SOMETH1NG, SHE M1GHT HAVE H1NTED AT 1T ALREADY. MAYBE? *ruth is so confusing, but... that doesn't feel very helpful to say, anyway.* ERRR.
TAKODA: 1 GUESS 1T'S JUST AS WELL. BECAUSE 1 WOULD BE SAD TO SEE YOU GO, DO TH1NGS THAT 1 PROBABLY COULDN'T JO1N YOU TO DO.
MYGALE: Yeah........ *her voice trails off as her gaze shifts to the floor. SHE KNOWS HOW MUCH THAT STINGS* Lets make a pact.
TAKODA: *crunches into the cone as things start to get heavy. oops.* A PACT?
MYGALE: Yeah. Neither of us is allowed to leave here without the other. If we 8oth cant go, neither of us go.
TAKODA: *he blinks slowly, letting that register. he's surprised to hear this, but... relieved. with a small smile, he nods firmly in agreement.*
MYGALE: *she couldn't help 8ut smile at that, either, and she could almost feel a little 8it of a 8urden lift from her shoulders. In fact, she's feeling so good 8y his answer that she ends up giving him a smooch on the cheek*
TAKODA: *nearly drops his ice cream cone but he CATCHES H1MSELF in time. he's startled, but definitely happy, the smile on his face spreading into a lopsided grin.* OH... HEHEH...
MYGALE: *hmmm... she's feeling kinda 8old after that, and gives him a second smooch, this one closer to his lips, 8ut not quite on them*
TAKODA: *he tenses, but the shiver down his spine quickly knocks the sense back into him. he had been a little more dense in his youth, but by now, he knows when moves are being made on him. and better yet, he knew how to respond to them, especially when it was something he reciprocated. he turns his head slightly, to just barely linger beside mygale's lips before she leans away again.*
TAKODA: YOU KNOW, UH. YOU'RE A VERY... 1MPORTANT PERSON, TO ME. DON'T YOU?
MYGALE: Hmmmmmmmm........ The frequent visits and treats might have given that away. *strokes his 8eefy arm*
TAKODA: *BOY HOWDY. he grins a little sheepishly at her.* OH... SO, YOU'VE GOT ME ALL F1GURED OUT, THEN?
MYGALE: Maaaaaaaay8e. ::::)
MYGALE: I'm starting to suspect you might have a 8ig old fat red crush on me. Right?
MYGALE: Unless that's just the Nitram charm screaming that has all the other re8els swooning at your feet.
TAKODA: AHAHA... WELL, NOT /ALL/ OF THEM ARE SWOON1NG, OVER ME. *more nervous laughter*
TAKODA: BUT THAT'S... A CORRECT ASSERT1ON. THE FORMER TH1NG YOU SA1D. *clears his throat and manages to relax enough not to sound like a TOTAL loser*
TAKODA: 1 AM RED FOR YOU, MYGALE.
MYGALE: Well........ *leans in even closer, their lips 8asically touching, purposely pressing her 8elly into him* I might just 8e red for you too. *kees*
TAKODA: *his breath hitches at each touch, but he does wrap his free arm around her shoulders to secure her beside him. he returns the kiss, gently, reluctant to pull away when he'd been pining for this for so long.*
MYGALE: *she decides to adjust herself so she's more on his lap as opposed to that side thing, straddling him with her legs as they kiss, only pulling 8ack so she can give him a grin*
TAKODA: *he beams right back at her. there are practically hearts in his eyes.* ... YOU'RE REALLY PRETTY. *wow, he's so smooth. it's no wonder he's seduced so many.*
MYGALE: *SNORTS* You're pretty easy on the eyes yourself. ::::)
TAKODA: OH THANK YOU. 1'M GLAD YOU TH1NK SO. HEHEH. *nerdy laughter, but it settles quickly enough and he leans forward to nuzzle to her cheek*
MYGALE: *she pulls on him as she starts to lay 8ack down on the couch, trying to TAKE HIM DOWN WITH HER*
TAKODA: WHOA. *snarfs down the last bite of ice cream cone before he happily complies, toppling down and leaning over her, supporting himself on one hand.*
MYGALE: *she finishes up her ice cream as well 8efore she makes a MESS, then stares up at Takoda dreamily* I gotta say, though........ I'm a little surprised I'm the one you want to 8e with.
TAKODA: *he's giving her a similar look, though it turns a little inquisitive as she speaks* YOU ARE?
MYGALE: Yeah. I mean........ what's so attractive a8out someone who got dumped so easily? And all I've 8een doing lately is moap like a 8ig weenie.
TAKODA: UM... WELL, YOU SHOULDN'T FEEL BAD ABOUT THAT. 1 TH1NK, WHAT MEENAH D1D, WAS PRETTY 1NSENS1T1VE...
TAKODA: AND 1T M1GHT NOT BE SAY1NG MUCH, BECAUSE 1 AM PRETTY MUCH, A HUGE WEEN1E, BUT 1F 1T WERE ME, 1 WOULD ALSO MOAP A LOT TOO.
TAKODA: BES1DES... 1'VE UH. HAD FEEL1NGS FOR YOU. MUCH LONGER THAN, S1NCE YOU WERE "EAS1LY DUMPED." *glances away bashfully*
MYGALE: *she starts to 8LUSH now too, her eyes kinda wide* And that didn't change after I got this, either? *she pats her FAT 8ELLY*
MYGALE: 8ecause honestly, I was starting to wonder if you were TRYING to fatten me up. ::::)
TAKODA: WHA-- *now he's blushing too* 1 WASN'T TRY1NG TO, MAKE YOU GA1N WE1GHT, OR ANYTH1NG... 1 JUST.
TAKODA: WANTED TO HELP YOU FEEL BETTER.
MYGALE: What do you think though? Should I keep it? Your first decision as my new matesprit.
TAKODA: *he blushes even DEEPER. geez. what a question.* 1 TH1NK YOU SHOULD... MA1NTA1N A WE1GHT, THAT YOU ARE COMFORTABLE W1TH.
TAKODA: ... BUT 1 KNOW THAT 1SN'T, WHAT YOU'RE ASK1NG EXACTLY, SO 1 W1LL SAY THAT 1 DO TH1NK... YOU LOOK VERY CUTE. L1KE THAT.
MYGALE: See, I really do have you all figured out. *NUZZLES HIM*
TAKODA: HEHE... *nuzzles her back, leaving kisses along her cheek* 1T LOOKS L1KE YOU DO. }:)
