And here I thought you liked getting wet....
;)
counterstep: (just making sure)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-05-23 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
different kind of wet 🙁

it's so bad it got through the seams of my leather jacket
I'm worried for the water damage

( because he's married to his knives and jackets. )
dawn_is_breaking: (coy)

[personal profile] dawn_is_breaking 2025-05-23 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
I was going to say, I never heard you complain. Then again, your mouth is usually too busy for that.

Have you tried using some leather protector on it? Or maybe an umbrella?
counterstep: (happy new year)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-05-23 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
different wet! that one's fine!!

I was using an umbrella but the wind did one of those scissor cuts through the air and tore it so now I have a broken umbrella that I guess I just have to throw away?? this feels wasteful
anyway didn't have time to find anything else to not get drenched in
dawn_is_breaking: (yuhmaybe)

[personal profile] dawn_is_breaking 2025-05-23 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
Just fine?? :(

I'm sorry the weather has been so awful tonight, I'm sure your coat will be okay if you hang it to dry for a few days.
I have some leather protector if you'd like to borrow it.
counterstep: (тревога)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-05-23 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
you know what I mean 😩

might have to until I can find a better umbrella
now that I'm looking at it in pieces, it's just
so flimsy
like who made this
it's sad
dawn_is_breaking: (hide laugh)

[personal profile] dawn_is_breaking 2025-05-23 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
Well now I'm feeling self conscious and worried about it. You DO like going down on me, right??

[She's really not but she can't help but tease him about this stuff. He's so cute when he gets flustered.]

Sadly it seems that umbrella tech hasn't advanced since the 1980's.
counterstep: (don't forget to write)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-05-23 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
what? of course I do!!
why self conscious?? 😩


( too easy, barnes. )

did people just give up cause it was "eh good enough"??? I feel like we could definitely make a better umbrella by now
dawn_is_breaking: (yup smile)

[personal profile] dawn_is_breaking 2025-05-23 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
Good, because I love it when you do that.
I'm not, I just said that so you'd admit to liking it.

[She's just awful, isn't she?]

How? By installing a gutter system?
counterstep: (business as usual)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-05-23 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
mean 😩😩😩
I'm but a man 😩😩😩😩


( nah, he loves her. )

I mean
if it works though...
dawn_is_breaking: (total grin)

[personal profile] dawn_is_breaking 2025-05-23 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
A sweet wonderful man who is great with his tongue.
😘❤️

I don't think it would, everyone would trip over each other's gutters.
counterstep: (well well well)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-05-23 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
I try my best anyway 😩

can't they make a version of that that isn't bulky then? or idk something?
dawn_is_breaking: (smile kid)

[personal profile] dawn_is_breaking 2025-05-23 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
Trust me, you succeed. ❤️

I think most people don't give umbrellas so much thought, you could always try and make something yourself if it's really bothering you.
counterstep: (размышлять)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-05-23 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
❤️

I'm not much of an inventor though
unfortunately
dawn_is_breaking: (sun_smile)

[personal profile] dawn_is_breaking 2025-05-23 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
You're a lover not an inventor?
counterstep: (суждение)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-05-23 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
dunno about that
probably more a fighter than even a lover
dawn_is_breaking: (red smile)

[personal profile] dawn_is_breaking 2025-05-23 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
I beg to differ.
😘

But don't worry, I won't tell any of your coworkers how much you like to snuggle.
counterstep: (wait)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-05-23 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
that's only cause I haven't any reason to fight you, darling

I'm a very different person when working
dawn_is_breaking: (think)

[personal profile] dawn_is_breaking 2025-05-23 06:34 am (UTC)(link)
Does sparring count?

I don't fully believe that.
counterstep: (wait)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-05-23 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
not really
for better or worse I usually have to pull my punches
cause of the serum


and I don't expect you to but I know personally
dawn_is_breaking: (braid care)

[personal profile] dawn_is_breaking 2025-05-23 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
I figured.
You're sweet to let me win then.

It might have been true before but things are different now, you're in control of yourself.
counterstep: (damn seagulls)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-05-23 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
I try to let strategy be the driving force in a spar instead of strength
it's not really me letting you win

that's not really what I mean, but I understand why you'd think I mean that
I just approach things very differently, between personal and professional
dawn_is_breaking: (sweetest_smile)

[personal profile] dawn_is_breaking 2025-05-23 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)
You sure? Because you seem to let me get on top a lot. ;)

That doesn't make you a different person, it's just another side of you.
counterstep: (designs)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-05-23 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
usually cause I already conceded the loss
it's not always about the physical part of the spar either


sure but my point still stands that you probably wouldn't recognize me while I'm working a mission
dawn_is_breaking: (sun_smile)

[personal profile] dawn_is_breaking 2025-05-23 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
James, I'm trying to flirt with you here sweetheart.

I think I would if you ever let me come on one.
