[Hey!] Soph says, one Sunday morning when it is beastly hot - especially for a January - to her sister, her boyfriend, and her, uh, Sherlock. [It is water park weather, how does that sound to you guys? And then, like, Italian food, I am thinking fond pesto thoughts, are you guys with me on fond pesto thoughts?]
toblameforit: Striving for innocence. (+= wanna do my homework for me?)
Author: toblameforit
[I am fond of pesto!] says Tony.
eversomuchfun: Grinning or laughing. (!= all the way to the kettle)
Author: eversomuchfun
[Sounds like fun,] says Sherlock.
cross_and_bow: (smirk)
Author: cross_and_bow
[I'm in more of a marianara mood, does that disqualify me?]
keyed_up: (the good parts)
Author: keyed_up
[Not a bit. As long as you want to go on water slides and stuff.]
eversomuchfun: Smiling slightly. (!= merely an abomination of nature)
Author: eversomuchfun
[Do you want to go on waterslides, love?]
cross_and_bow: (smug)
Author: cross_and_bow
[I think I would like to go on waterslides. Do we know a good place to teleport in at a water park or are we driving?]
keyed_up: (flesh and blood)
Author: keyed_up
[Let's drive. If Tony wants to drive. D'you want to drive?]
toblameforit: Grinning. (*= cranking up the charm)
Author: toblameforit
[I always want to drive.]
keyed_up: (learning to dance)
Author: keyed_up
[Good, 'cause, if you didn't want to drive, we'd have to expect that the sun was about to turn into bees and the water in the water park was all going to spontaneously boil off, since, apocalypse, and then Bella couldn't come since she'd be running around fixing the apocalypse.]
cross_and_bow: (smirk)
Author: cross_and_bow
[But in fact he wants to drive, so I can come. I'll meet you wherever you are in a minute.]
toblameforit: Smiling a little bit. (*= you jerk! :D)
Author: toblameforit
[Awesome,] says Tony. [I hate it when the sun turns into bees.]
cross_and_bow: (eyeroll)
Author: cross_and_bow
[Yeah, that's a messy cleanup job, there.] She appears where Tony is a moment after Soph does.
toblameforit: Smiling affectionately or smugly. (*= recent successes)
Author: toblameforit
Tony hugs Soph.
eversomuchfun: Smiling slightly. (!= merely an abomination of nature)
Author: eversomuchfun
Sherlock hugs Juliet.

They are in a Jarvis's garage; one of Tony's cars is right there. And, unusually for one of Tony's cars, it has enough seats for all of them.
cross_and_bow: (pleased)
Author: cross_and_bow
Hugs! Bella lets her sister take shotgun.
keyed_up: (learning to dance)
Author: keyed_up
Which Soph does. After hug, because hug.
toblameforit: Grinning a lot. (*= in front of a mirror)
Author: toblameforit
Hug is a good reason for hug. Hug is the best reason for hug.

Hug, and then water park!
keyed_up: (learning to dance)
Author: keyed_up
The water park is watery and parky! There is a lot of descending significant distances rapidly without any of the controlled sensation of hexed flight. Soph looks very fetching in her white-and-pink bathing suit with her hair all bedraggled, and she whoops unrestrainedly when the various water park rides fling her about. And has to cough up water once or twice.
cross_and_bow: (smirk)
Author: cross_and_bow
Bella is also fetching but less pink and less whoopy. Fun is, nonetheless, had.
eversomuchfun: Grinning or laughing. (!= all the way to the kettle)
Author: eversomuchfun
Sherlock is extremely fetching, not even slightly pink, and hardly whoopy at all. But he does giggle quite a bit.
toblameforit: Grinning. (*= cranking up the charm)
Author: toblameforit
Tony is moderately fetching, pink in the face if not in the shorts, and whoops with the best of them.
keyed_up: (the good parts)
Author: keyed_up
Both of the Swans present think their respective boyfriends are the fetchingest and their amounts of whooping the most correct. It is a good arrangement.
cross_and_bow: (pleased)
Author: cross_and_bow
After they have all been on everything, and the best things twice and the very best things three times, Bella says, "Italian food, yes?"
toblameforit: Grinning a lot. (*= in front of a mirror)
Author: toblameforit
"Yeah!" whoops Tony.
keyed_up: (little sis)
Author: keyed_up
That is cute. Tony gets nuzzled. "Pestoooooo!"
cross_and_bow: (checkout)
Author: cross_and_bow
"Marinara," counters Bella. "Poor Sherlock. You could probably hex it if it is a hardship."
eversomuchfun: Smiling slightly. (!= merely an abomination of nature)
Author: eversomuchfun
"You know, there is really no good reason for me to be unable to digest food," says Sherlock. "I'll fix that."

He fixes that.

"Let's go get Italian."
keyed_up: (learning to dance)
Author: keyed_up
"Woo!"

And they narrow down their choices to a single Italian place with a combination of Jarvis and magic, and Soph orders pesto gnocchi.
cross_and_bow: (smirk)
Author: cross_and_bow
Spaghetti. With meatballs.
eversomuchfun: Grinning or laughing. (!= all the way to the kettle)
Author: eversomuchfun
Spaghetti with meatballs sounds perfect.
toblameforit: Smiling affectionately or smugly. (*= recent successes)
Author: toblameforit
Pesto gnocchi it is!
keyed_up: (little sis)
Author: keyed_up
"Awwwwwwww."
cross_and_bow: (eyeroll)
Author: cross_and_bow
"A fine inaugural meal."

[Don't fill up, love.]
eversomuchfun: Smiling, perhaps falsely. (!= oh yes—hilarious)
Author: eversomuchfun
"I like to think so," he says, grinning at her.
toblameforit: Grinning. (*= cranking up the charm)
Author: toblameforit
Tony starts giggling.
cross_and_bow: (checkout)
Author: cross_and_bow
"What?"
toblameforit: Grinning a lot. (*= in front of a mirror)
Author: toblameforit
"Nothiiiiing," snickers Tony.
eversomuchfun: Smiling slightly. (!= merely an abomination of nature)
Author: eversomuchfun
[Tony has a fine-tuned sense of when I am thinking about sex,] Sherlock explains to Juliet.
keyed_up: (flesh and blood)
Author: keyed_up
Soph starts laughing, not because she has any idea what's going on but because Tony is and he's contagious.
cross_and_bow: (smirk)
Author: cross_and_bow
[Well, that's good to know, I suppose.]
eversomuchfun: Grinning or laughing. (!= all the way to the kettle)
Author: eversomuchfun
[He can also probably guess that you were the cause.]
cross_and_bow: (smug)
Author: cross_and_bow
[Given the hypothesis-space I'd be kind of disappointed in his reasoning skills if he could not.]

Bella merrily coils spaghetti onto her fork.
toblameforit: Smiling affectionately or smugly. (*= recent successes)
Author: toblameforit
Tony decides to save his food until after giggles, because doing it the other way never ends well.
eversomuchfun: Grinning or laughing. (!= all the way to the kettle)
Author: eversomuchfun
Om nom nom.
keyed_up: (the good parts)
Author: keyed_up
Nom nom. "I have such fond thoughts about pesto. Pesto is such a good thing."
toblameforit: Grinning. (*= cranking up the charm)
Author: toblameforit
"I love you," giggles Tony.
keyed_up: (the good parts)
Author: keyed_up


Soph blushes hard enough to teach colorblind people to identify red. And she smiles at her knees.

"And you are also a good thing and I also have fond thoughts about you and I also love you."
cross_and_bow: (pleased)
Author: cross_and_bow
"Awww!"
eversomuchfun: Smiling slightly. (!= merely an abomination of nature)
Author: eversomuchfun
"Awww," Sherlock agrees.
toblameforit: Smiling a little bit. (*= you jerk! :D)
Author: toblameforit
Tony hugs Soph.
keyed_up: (learning to dance)
Author: keyed_up
Hugs! Hugs hugs hugs. She has a Tony and she loves her Tony.
toblameforit: Grinning a lot. (*= in front of a mirror)
Author: toblameforit
And the Tony that she has loves her right back! Mmm, hugs.

Okay, now he is not giggling too hard to eat anymore, but hugs.
keyed_up: (the good parts)
Author: keyed_up
Also pesto. Soph also loves pesto.
toblameforit: Grinning. (*= cranking up the charm)
Author: toblameforit
Tony loves pesto too! But he loves Soph more than he loves pesto.
keyed_up: (learning to dance)
Author: keyed_up
If Soph had to give up pesto to keep Tony, she would make a show of agonizing, and then she would keep Tony! Luckily she does not have to do that. She can have Tony and pesto. At the same time.
cross_and_bow: (smirk)
Author: cross_and_bow
"You guys are too cute to be allowed in public."
keyed_up: (flesh and blood)
Author: keyed_up
"Aww, but I want tiramisu."
toblameforit: Grinning a lot. (*= in front of a mirror)
Author: toblameforit
"Then you should have tiramisu!" says Tony, snuggling her.
keyed_up: (little sis)
Author: keyed_up
"But Tony, we're not allowed in public, we're too cute. We're about to be ushered out of this restaurant by the cuteness police and they don't have any tiramisu in cuteness jail."
toblameforit: Grinning. (*= cranking up the charm)
Author: toblameforit
"I am too cute for cuteness jail," Tony declares. "They wouldn't even take me."
keyed_up: (learning to dance)
Author: keyed_up
"Maybe they have to put bags over our heads. I bet that's how they do it. They are a specialized jail and know how to deal with the likes of you and me."
toblameforit: Grinning a lot. (*= in front of a mirror)
Author: toblameforit
"We could totally be cute even with bags over our heads."
eversomuchfun: Mocking. (<= it must have burned)
Author: eversomuchfun
"Now that is an assertion that needs testing," says Sherlock.
keyed_up: (flesh and blood)
Author: keyed_up
"This sounds like the subject of a cute indie short film. Two people with bags on their heads being adorable. There would be no dialogue but the title would be in French and there would be background piano."
toblameforit: Smiling affectionately or smugly. (*= recent successes)
Author: toblameforit
"We could hold hands," says Tony. "And cuddle."
eversomuchfun: Leaning casually against a wall. (Default)
Author: eversomuchfun
"While the room slowly fills with teddy bears," says Sherlock.
cross_and_bow: (eyeroll)
Author: cross_and_bow
"Les Sacs Mignons," intones Bella, playing an imaginary piano.
keyed_up: (little sis)
Author: keyed_up
"Are we generating the bears or attracting the bears with the cute?"
eversomuchfun: Grinning or laughing. (!= all the way to the kettle)
Author: eversomuchfun
"Generating them," says Sherlock. "They just appear out of thin air."
keyed_up: (flesh and blood)
Author: keyed_up
"We could actually make this short film. If the credits were anonymous and we had bags on our heads no one would know how to track down the suspicious special effects!"
toblameforit: Grinning. (*= cranking up the charm)
Author: toblameforit
"We should totally make this short film," says Tony.
keyed_up: (learning to dance)
Author: keyed_up
"Yes. Les Sacs Mignons, coming soon to an Internet near you."
cross_and_bow: (pleased)
Author: cross_and_bow
"That is just even more adorable, you are going to be America's most wanted cuteness criminals and you'll have to flee to Mercury and then you'll probably just play board games with my minions and it will be even cuter, you are not allowed."
toblameforit: Grinning a lot. (*= in front of a mirror)
Author: toblameforit
"We are too allowed," says Tony, "you just try to disallow us, look," and he hugs Soph some more and leans his head on her shoulder with the most terribly sappy expression on his face.
keyed_up: (the good parts)
Author: keyed_up
"Careful, she is totally the Empress of She Hasn't Named It Yet," giggles Soph, but then she is peppering Tony's hair with little kisses.
toblameforit: Smiling affectionately or smugly. (*= recent successes)
Author: toblameforit
"I laugh in the face of empresses," says Tony, nuzzling Soph's shoulder. "Adorably."
keyed_up: (little sis)
Author: keyed_up
"The most adorably. So adorably. That's why I adore you, probably."
cross_and_bow: (smirk)
Author: cross_and_bow
"If I order you a tiramisu will you eat it and give the cute a break? Because it would attract attention if I torched of preciousness overload right here in the restaurant."
eversomuchfun: Hands. (== I think that's sorted)
Author: eversomuchfun
"There, there, love," says Sherlock. "Have a teddy bear."

He reaches over and appears to pull a teeny tiny one out of her ear, then hands it to her gravely.
cross_and_bow: (eyeroll)
Author: cross_and_bow
Bella accepts the teeny tiny teddy bear.

She looks at it.

She looks at Sherlock.

She puts the teeny tiny teddy bear on her her head, sticks it in place with a triangle, and flags down the nearest waitress for dessert menus.
toblameforit: Grinning. (*= cranking up the charm)
Author: toblameforit
"I should actually eat some food," says Tony. He commences doing that, which sadly necessitates un-snuggling from Soph a little bit.
keyed_up: (powers that be)
Author: keyed_up
Soph is a fast eater. Her fondly-thought-of pesto gnocchi is all gone. She checks the dessert menu for anything to supplant tiramisu, but nothing better catches her eye.
cross_and_bow: (pleased)
Author: cross_and_bow
Bella wants a cannoli.
toblameforit: Drinking orange juice from the carton. (+= endeavouring to make breakfast)
Author: toblameforit
The boys go for gelato.
keyed_up: (little sis)
Author: keyed_up
The girls steal tastes!
eversomuchfun: Smiling slightly. (!= merely an abomination of nature)
Author: eversomuchfun
And they are welcome to do so.
keyed_up: (the good parts)
Author: keyed_up
Welcome tastes are just as tasty as nefariously stolen tastes.
cross_and_bow: (pleased)
Author: cross_and_bow
And they, too, will share.

"Good first solid meal in a while?" Bella inquires of Sherlock.
eversomuchfun: Grinning or laughing. (!= all the way to the kettle)
Author: eversomuchfun
"Perfect," says Sherlock. And grins at her.
cross_and_bow: (smirk)
Author: cross_and_bow
[We can let them drive back by themselves.]
toblameforit: Thoughtful, perhaps mischievous. (+= pretend we're twins)
Author: toblameforit
Tony takes one look at Sherlock and volunteers to stick around and pay for the food.
cross_and_bow: (eyeroll)
Author: cross_and_bow
"That's very kind of you."
keyed_up: (powers that be)
Author: keyed_up
"Yeah, you never really got the appeal of cars, did you."
cross_and_bow: (smirk)
Author: cross_and_bow
"It is true, I have never done that thing."
toblameforit: Grinning. (*= cranking up the charm)
Author: toblameforit
"So me and Soph can drive back, and you and Sherry can... not do that."
keyed_up: (little sis)
Author: keyed_up
Soph looks at Tony. She looks at Bella. She looks at Sherlock. She starts giggling to herself.
toblameforit: Smiling a little bit. (*= you jerk! :D)
Author: toblameforit
cross_and_bow: (eyeroll)
Author: cross_and_bow
Bella rolls her eyes. "Well. Off we go to somewhere not under observation. Splendid waterpark-and-Italian idea, Soph, thank you."
keyed_up: (powers that be)
Author: keyed_up
"For teleporting," says Soph gravely. "Must not teleport in front of people. That is certainly what you meant. Yep."
eversomuchfun: Looking ceilingward. (<= hardly very sensitive of you)
Author: eversomuchfun
"Indeed we mustn't," says Sherlock.
cross_and_bow: (smirk)
Author: cross_and_bow
"Come on, you," snorts Bella, and she takes Sherlock's hand and heads for the restaurant bathroom alcove. They don't have to actually enter either bathroom to be unobserved for the time it takes to port into a Jarvis.
eversomuchfun: Grinning or laughing. (!= all the way to the kettle)
Author: eversomuchfun




It turns out that Sherlock did not fill up.
cross_and_bow: (pleased)
Author: cross_and_bow
Good. Very good. Best.
eversomuchfun: Smiling slightly. (!= merely an abomination of nature)
Author: eversomuchfun
Mm. Tasty Juliet.
cross_and_bow: (pleased)
Author: cross_and_bow
Most tasty of Juliets.

Also most snuggly of Juliets!
eversomuchfun: Smiling contentedly, eyes closed. (<= contains no moving parts)
Author: eversomuchfun
The very snuggiest! Mmm. Snuggly.
cross_and_bow: (smirk)
Author: cross_and_bow
Snuggles snuggles snuggles. "I looooove you."
eversomuchfun: Grinning or laughing. (!= all the way to the kettle)
Author: eversomuchfun
"I love you too."

Snuggles. Kisses?
cross_and_bow: (pleased)
Author: cross_and_bow
Kisses. Yes. Always, always kisses.
eversomuchfun: Smiling, perhaps falsely. (!= oh yes—hilarious)
Author: eversomuchfun
Snuggly kisses! Sherlock is in a snuggly mood.
cross_and_bow: (pleased)
Author: cross_and_bow
Such moods are contagious. Sherlock can be a pillow. A kissable snuggly pillow.
eversomuchfun: Smiling slightly. (!= merely an abomination of nature)
Author: eversomuchfun
Very kissable. Very snuggly. Very pillow.
cross_and_bow: (smirk)
Author: cross_and_bow
Very very very. Mmmmm.
eversomuchfun: Side-on in the dark; expression not visible. (== a degree of humanity)
Author: eversomuchfun
So very snuggly. And cozy. So cozy.
cross_and_bow: (pleased)
Author: cross_and_bow
Cozy cozy cozy. Cozy and warm and snuggly.
eversomuchfun: Hands. (== I think that's sorted)
Author: eversomuchfun
Cozycozycozzzzzzzzzzzzz.
cross_and_bow: (pleased)
Author: cross_and_bow
Awwww. Huh, she doesn't think she's ever happened to see him sleep before, what with him being nocturnal and then magically not needing to.

She does work in her head for a bit - composes an essay for English to conjure into existence on the due date, confirms appointments with a few demons - and then she sighs comfortably and naps on him.
eversomuchfun: Smiling contentedly, eyes closed. (<= contains no moving parts)
Author: eversomuchfun
When she wakes up from her nap, Sherlock will also be awake. And snuggling her. Cozily.
cross_and_bow: (smirk)
Author: cross_and_bow
She yawns awake mid-word ("bubbles") and gives him a little kiss on the cheek. "Hullo. I've fallen asleep on you before but I don't think I've ever been around you asleep, what with nocturnalness and then magic."
eversomuchfun: Looking ceilingward. (<= hardly very sensitive of you)
Author: eversomuchfun
"I had trouble sleeping around people even before I was nocturnal or magical, actually."
cross_and_bow: (perhaps)
Author: cross_and_bow
"Really? Huh." Snuzzle.
eversomuchfun: Side-on in the dark; expression not visible. (== a degree of humanity)
Author: eversomuchfun
"I could manage it if the person in question was Tony, but I didn't prefer to. Didn't even like having Jarvis watching. Now I mostly just don't sleep, which avoids the whole issue."
cross_and_bow: (perhaps)
Author: cross_and_bow


"Oh."

Hugs.
eversomuchfun: Hands. (== I think that's sorted)
Author: eversomuchfun
Snuggles.

"I never mentioned it because it never came up."
cross_and_bow: (pleased)
Author: cross_and_bow
"Makes sense. I love you."
eversomuchfun: Smiling contentedly, eyes closed. (<= contains no moving parts)

Snuggles and love.
