Sleep W/ TEDDIE/LIA NO I DONT KNOW WHAT YOURE TALkING ABOUT THIS ISNT KENNEY NOPE
Sleep — I’ll write a drabble of my character snuggling in bed with yours.
Girls’ sleepover?
You bet your bells that Lia would be up to it — especially when the only thing you needed to bring was your entire collection of The X-Files and at least one DVD of Full House. Mainly because, if the cat Milkshake and the dog Mona were going to be there as well, then Mona needed something interesting to watch. John Stamos’ face would do the trick, while the girls would start trying to compete on who could engineer a water pajama faster — in order to sleep under the sea in a custom bunker, to boot.
The bunker was part of the deal too.
Ridiculous as the idea sounded (can you guess who came up with it?), Teddie and Lia truly enjoyed indulging in the usually masculine aspects of their interests. Lia, because she spent more time being a material girl and Teddie because she spent more time being a CEO. Neither one of their boyfriends ever chimed in during the entire night, which was a shame — they missed out on each woman trying out the other’s costumes for photos.
An hour later, Lia skipped to the kitchen — The X-Files hadn’t finished but one of her favorite reality shows was on and she really needed to know about Sabrina’s as—
“Huuuaaagggggghhhh!”
The blood-curdling scream made her drop the tea cup, breaking on the floor. That was her voice, that was her, what in the world?! Zzwwipping away to the room, Lia burst the door, decked out in her Flash outfit. The light contrasted against the dark of the room.
"Teddie! What happened?! Did you find a bug?!—"
Soon the blonde stopped asking questions, she saw that the woman was huddled up, hugging herself in bed. Sobs could be heard, even with her face hidden. Her hair was disheveled, evidence of either sleep…or lack thereof, due to a nightmare.
Nightmare is what proved to be the reason, once Lia calmed her friend down enough.
"You okay now?"
A sniff with a nod.
"So…is that why there aren’t any pictures of Michelle?"
"H-huh?"
"Well, you got pictures of your friends from your real world, but there’s only, like, one with a blonde! Who looks like Booster! And you guys look really young too…"
"But,", she said, crossing her legs on the edge of the bed, "you keep that one behind the rest. I thought it was ‘cuz you looked bigger—"
"Gee, thanks, Lia.”
"But…I guess it’s ‘cuz…well…"
The nods served as affirmation. The reason why Teddie screamed in the first place was that, amidst the hard sobs, she’d dreamed about Michelle Carter, aka the Booster Gold from her world. The one who was killed again and again in her dream.
Going back to sleep was going to prove difficult, especially with adrenaline running through your veins. The hologram wanted to go to sleep already (forget the tea and Sabrina), but not if it meant leaving someone hanging.
"Teddie…"
"Yeah?"
Sol-holing her outfit into a comfy oversized shirt, she fixed one side of the bed. The confused woman looked at the other all the while, even when she was already sol-holing her own comforter and laid her head on one pillow. Her hand reached out to Teddie’s shoulder, abruptly slamming her down onto the bed next to her.
"Hey, what’s the big idea?!"
One eye open.
"Well, if you get scared again, at least this time I can, like, find you in your dreams!"
A couple of seconds passed, as the older woman’s eyes widened in surprise. The gesture was unexpected, but appreciated eventually. It wasn’t the first time she’d shared a bed with someone friendly, and to have someone next to you when awful things happened, well…that was always good, right?
Teddie shuffled under the sheets, curling up to Lia like a cub does to its mother. Giggling, Lia simply fixed the bed sheets, making sure the other one was comfy enough. But this comforter’s still mine, you can’t have it. Both of them closing their eyes, they were ready to go to Slumberland.
"Good night."
“‘Night.”
……
"By the way, you should stop hangin’ with Q so much. His cheese lines are rubbing off."
[ Lumita stood still in the JLI headquarters. She and her father were on earth to get supplies and train a little. But he remembered something he needed to get or talk about with some of his team mates while he was here. So here she was, staying put and out of trouble.
Then somebody new came into the room. Lumita hoped she wasn't in the way or anything and that Guy would get back soon. It would be a little awkward around a stranger and even more so if they were busy with stuff at this place. ]
((I SNORTED MILK THROUGH MY NOSE and then laughed a lot thank you))
send me a ship and I’ll tell you who:
shops for groceries: They do it together! It's a chance to catch up whenever both of them have been very busy.
kills the spiders: After a lot of screaming, most likely Teddie. Lia'd be too busy going 'ew' every three seconds.
comes home drunk at 3am: Lia, to everyone's displeasure --including hers, the drunk Ivy League-wannabe.
makes breakfast: If it's a normal breakfast with the works, then Teddie will have to cook it. Otherwise, bye bye lab, Bug and house in a blaze of fire. Heck, bye Skeets if the robot's not careful. (If it's just a sandwich, then Lia can do it.) Teddie usually does omelets with a side of toast.
remembers to feed the fish: Lia hates fish, but Teddie is a bit more forgetful about the poor thing because it's not a bug. So Lia feeds it...blindfolded.
decorates the apartment: Again, another dual activity. Lia handles the walls, carpeting while Teddie deals with the embossed details like decorative motifs (if any), furniture, and windows. Who knew blue and pink went great together? 8)
initiates duets: LIA. She's the one who starts humming and then it becomes MTV Total Request Live. Many a time have the police been called.
falls asleep first: Lia, again. She's an early bird, so she gets knocked out pretty quick. Unless something important's on like a fashion show, then it will be Teddie -- who, when awakened, will find a sleep deprived Lia still arguing about the intricacies of the color green when merged with alternative clothing.
