[sangreine]

Well... not everyone takes my moods in stride as well as you do. [ To say the absolute least. She and Hurricane especially struggle with this since he takes it very personally when she gets upset, but she really does like him and none of it is his fault. ]

You have a way of keeping me calm, it's quite incredible really. [ Definitely sorcery ]

[happydreamed]

I'll admit I'm difficult to ruffle. [Making today more noteworthy in how infrequently that happens.] If I can extend that to you, all the better.

[sangreine]

You most definitely do. I'm not sure if it's my personality or my species or both, but I'm very -- hot blooded. [ That pause indicates that she's trying to be polite about it, she can be pretty intense sometimes. ]

[ Which is why she gets along best with people who either keep her on an even keel or understand her high temper on a deep level. ]

[happydreamed]

Passionate, I would say. Not always a bad thing.

[sangreine]

Mm, you don't know the half of it. [ She's not going to flirt overly, not when he's recovering from that memory buy, but she wasn't going to let that one pass. ]

[happydreamed]

I do look forward to experiencing it more.

[He can't not flirt back, even if he isn't really up to anything more than flirting at the moment.]

[sangreine]

In due time. [ This place and it's making things shitty needs to end, for a lot of reasons but also that one. (She uses sex as comfort when she's upset but she has plenty of others to turn to who share that affliction, she respects that Doctor doesn't.) ]

You actually make me a bit patient, too. Which others would surely tell you is a miracle in itself. [ Not her strong point, at all. ]

[happydreamed]

I'm honored to hear that, truly.

[Hugs her close.]

But I won't make you wait for the promised cuddling any longer.

[sangreine]

Some things are worth waiting for, hm? [ Like a proper mood with someone you care about. ] After karaoke will hopefully be a better time.

[ Is quite willingly gathered! She curls up close, resting against his shoulder. ] You are terribly comfortable. And you have a very steady heartbeat, it's nice. Not everyone does. [ She doesn't have exceptional hearing for anything else, but heartbeats absolutely. ]

[happydreamed]

I credit lots of tea and long naps for that.

[Stroking her hair lightly.]

[sangreine]

I can't say I can relate to the latter. [ She can, in a way, but she doesn't remember it yet. She naps for 30 years at a time, but when she first wakes up she's endlessly restless. ] But if anything could get me to hold still for a good while, it's resting with you.

[happydreamed]

I'll use my powers of cuddling responsibly.

[He will not.]

[sangreine]

You'd better, or I'll be forced to unleash all my cuddling prowess upon you. Some have been known to perish beneath its might.

[ Which she actually could do but we're talking playful banter, not threat of super strength squishing. ]

[happydreamed]

Ah, but I could use Heroes Never Die to simply continue hugging you. Though that wouldn't be a bad way to go, all told.

[sangreine]

Before I can form an appropriately witty response, you'll have to tell me what that does.

[happydreamed]

Oh, well - while powers are on, I can't die?

[sangreine]

What, seriously? That's convenient.

[ Distracted, for the moment, by tactical discussions, sorry. This is her Area of Expertise. ]

No wonder Heart Soldier has such a great win record.

[happydreamed]

It has its downsides, certainly. You can still be injured past the point that would normally kill you, and 'tis an unpleasant experience to say the least.

[sangreine]

[ And here she'd been thinking for a second that she wouldn't have to fret about him dying during games, but nope, that's no better. So she redoubles her cuddling efforts, but at sub-doom levels. ]

I withdraw my threat, since it seems I'm unwilling to accept the consequences. [ And a smooch on the cheek as an apology for making him think about something so grim. Violence is part of her and makes its way into a lot of her thoughts and speech proverbially, but she doesn't exactly love that. ]

[happydreamed]

No need to worry. I didn't expect you to follow through on it to begin with.

[Kissing her cheek in return. It's alright, he isn't too fussed. It certainly is a painful power, but it's useful, so he doesn't mind the drawbacks.]

[sangreine]

You're right about that, but I still thought unconditional surrender was my best option.

If you want to take a nap, you can. I'm not going anywhere. [ She can just listen to his pulse for a while, it's soothing. ]

[happydreamed]

I would very much like to, if you won't grow too bored. With you here, I'm certain to have good dreams.

[sangreine]

If the situation becomes desperate, I have my phone. But I don't think it will come to that, I meant what I said that being with you keeps me calm.

[ If he seems not to be having a good dream, she intends to wake him. He's had enough trauma today. ]

Get comfortable, then. I'll be here when you wake up. [ He can lay on her or the pillows or both, she doesn't have issues with limbs falling asleep the way humans do. ]

thread wrapup

[happydreamed]

[He will absolutely cuddle directly onto her. Aliza makes the best pillow of all.]
