[ dammit. he's always been really good at diverting attention back to her. good thing that he can't see her cheeks flush from here! ]

Um, thanks. Did you see Marcille doing it for me?

[ she reaches up and gives her updo a bit of a poke. it keeps itself up pretty well! how does she do it... ]

It's still so humid, though. [ yet don't mind if she leans sideways to rest her head on wriothesley's shoulder. ] I'm going to take the world's longest bath once we get back...

[frostfist]

She very pointedly made sure I knew.

[ Literally, by jabbing her finger into his face. But that's all in the past now, especially when he feels the weight of her head against his shoulder. Even at night it's still too hot to cuddle, but that doesn't stop him from shifting an arm so he can rest one hand lightly at her hip. ]

The cramped shower in the van not good enough for you?

[ He says it jokingly, because actually it's pretty fucking brutal. The way he has to duck just to fit under the showerhead.... ]

[wheft]

[ not their van being composed of some of the tallest people around and then lucy... ]

Please. I needed a much bigger space than that. And more water too.

[ trying to save up water with ish and rodya's manes is going to be hard, rip. but yay, she doesn't mind this kind of cuddling at all. it's way too hot for other forms of hugging u_u ]

I do owe her a lot. I probably wouldn't have gotten this far without her. [ chuckles. ] But it's weird that she doesn't talk about her own love life. Does she even have one?

[ im sorry nat but this is their gossip corner now ]

[frostfist]

[ i'm not sorry to nat for their gossip corner

Though the mention of Marcille's (lack of) love life just has him flashing back to the birthday party and the Incident(TM) where she ended up crying all over him and the conversation they'd had before that. He purses his lips in thought. ]

I suspect she has her own reasons for not pursuing romance, if she hasn't sought anyone out yet.

[ That, and she keeps crushing on people who are TAKEN!!! falls to my knees, me, val ]

Why, interested in finding her someone? [ i will ic/ooc blur for this ]

[wheft]

[ not the blur... ]

I don't even know where to begin in finding someone for her. For all we know, she'd already have her eyes on somebody else back home.

[ because no one else here who'd be her type is still single apparently. me also falling to my knees.

anyway, she'll have to pull her head away from wrio to rub at the back of her neck with a groan. ]

Feels so humid around here... Don't know how much more I can stay here.

[frostfist]

[ time to enable a falin

But that's a fair point to make and he simply nods along, content to let the matter drop there. Marcille's a nice girl deserving of the romance she loves to read so much about, but at the end of the day her love life - who she chooses to take an interest in - is her business. (Unfortunately for ME! VAL!!!)

The mention of the heat has him chuckling, his hand finally pulling away from her hip so it can come to a rest at the nape of her neck. Ya, don't worry, it's cold. ]

Go inside then. You can always come back out here tomorrow.

[ And suffer the same humid fate as tonight but maybe it'll miraculously be cooler tomorrow. (It won't.) ]

[wheft]

[ with the back of her neck constantly covered by her wild mane of hair the entire time, ishmael hadn't realized she was sensitive there until wriothesley placed his cold hand right on that very spot. there's a soft intake of breath as her hand finds his knee, fingernails digging into covered skin.

she should behave and go inside, turn on the ac and rest. but she doesn't want to leave him here, and she's mentally kicking herself for being so vulnerable rn. alas, it's too late. she bites her lip, and when she speaks her voice is almost inaudible. ]

You'll... come with me, right?

[ she absolutely refuses to look at him, opting to stare at the nearby ladder instead. the AC is convenient, sure, but his hands feel a lot nicer if she's being very honest. ]

[frostfist]

[ It may be dark enough that he can't make out the expression on her face, but the sudden drop of her voice is an obvious enough tell, a shift in both atmosphere and mood. The nails digging into his knee are both pleasant and painful, and for a brief second he lets himself imagine what they might feel like elsewhere.

.......

Maybe he shouldn't have done that. But, now that they're both here and everyone else is over there...... He keeps his voice light, quiet to match her own, though the hand on her neck starts moving, fingers trailing down her spine towards the small of her back. ]

Depends. I don't feel like sleeping just yet.

[ It's less a no than it is a veiled declaration of intent, placed into her hands for interpretation. ]

[wheft]

[ a shiver jolts up her spine the lower his hands travel down her back. in hindsight, this is what they both get for teasing about temperature play a couple of months ago, huh. it's really funny how they'd gotten to this point. she'd even spare him a slightly nervous chuckle. ]

Then we won't.

[ although, she is tempted to pass out on him again just so he'd carry her once more, but we'll see. she finally pulls her hand off her knee and stands up, stretching her arms up with a yawn and exposing a bit of skin as her shirt hikes up like so. ]

At least, I hope I won't. [ haha. ] Come on.

[ she's going to slide down the ladder and enter their van, patiently waiting for him there. also im not linking that one catchall sorry guys ]
