"All right. Until then, I'll just - keep doing this, then." Nuzzle. "Letting you in, I suppose."

Permalink

Smile. Snuggle.

Snuggle.

"Anyway. I would still like to borrow your morning, if not perhaps in the - way I had originally implied."

Permalink

"And I am still happy to lend it to you."

Permalink

Awwwwww. Okay, fine. She can kiss him for that.

"You're sweet," she murmurs. "... Metaphorically, I mean."

Permalink

He giggles.

Permalink

"Though I imagine literal sweetness wouldn't be difficult if you wanted the achievement."

Permalink

Snort. "Can't say I've ever entertained that particular ambition."

Permalink

She gives him a briefly contemplative look, then shakes her head ruefully, dismissing that line of thought as not really useful right now.

"Hm," she says, which is all she is allowed to say on the matter.

Permalink

"Well, regardless, thank you for being metaphorically sweet. It's - nice."

Permalink

"That's sort of the point of being sweet!" he says. "Or, in other words, you're welcome."

Permalink

Snort.

She leans over, and kisses the tip of his nose. Because it amuses her.

Permalink

He giggles again.

Permalink

She smiles adoringly at him, and then decides that she can kiss him after all. Admittedly mostly because she really, really wants to, but, hey. Sith are supposed to be in tune with their passions, right?

So she kisses him.

Permalink

What a delightful turn of events!

Permalink

Yes, yes it is.

She keeps the kisses sweet and loving over - hungry. Not that there won't be a place for that, eventually, but right now is not a good time. Right now can be practice for the meditation technique of making out with Miles Vorkosigan. How does it compare to her usual methodology? She already finds it more fun, so it has that going for it.

Permalink

Miles also seems to think it's pretty great. But he admittedly probably isn't using it as a meditation technique.

Permalink

Probably not, no. Doing that is admittedly a bit weird. But she's pretty sure he's right, this is pretty great. Even if maybe her usual meditation would be better at getting to the root of the problem, this makes her all. Relaxed and happy. Which is not a thing that usually happens with her. Maybe that should change. She could get used to occasionally becoming so at ease she feels she could melt into a puddle for a little while. Is there a bucket handy? ... She doesn't care enough to ask, there is a Miles handy, and there are so many kisses to bestow upon him.

 

"Miles, I think I'm falling in love with you," she murmurs into his lips. Oh, that's the danger of being relaxed, isn't it. Saying things she might regret. She can't quite bring herself to care.

Permalink

"Huh."

He smiles.

"Yeah, likewise."

Permalink

She smiles back, kissing the corner of his mouth because damn it she should bestow affection upon that smile somehow.

"Aren't we nice and symmetrical." Nuzzle.

Permalink

"Very tidy." Snuggle. Kiss.

Permalink

Mmm yes she doesn't need her brain right now, they can go back to kissing. She'll require her brain later. In a few hours. Which is such a long way away. ... Maybe. What time even is it anymore?

"... I'm probably going to lose track of time if we keep doing this," she observes, a little breathlessly. "Hold on, darling, let me just set an alarm so I can stop worrying about it and go back to kissing you."

Permalink

"You're so organized," he says, somewhere between fondness and admiration.

Permalink

"You should see my personnel database," she giggles, delighted. "In comparison, setting an alarm so I can be at my meeting on time is trivial."

Inertia is a persuasive mistress. Or maybe Miles is a persuasive lover. Either way, getting up to retrieve her datapad seems like such a chore, and Miles is so comfortable. Instead, she floats it over. Then she sets an alarm on a gentle chime at the appropriate time, and sends it back out of her way so she can focus her attention on Miles again.

Permalink

"I mean, I've been known to keep a pretty sharp personnel database in my time, but I wouldn't even think to set an alarm for a meeting, I'd just hope I remembered - in fairness, I usually do - and if I didn't I'd run in late and apologize as charmingly as possible."
