Unexpected




unexpected domesticity meme.
you never thought you'd have a home, at least not one you can call completely yours, no strings attached and no one lording above you or controlling you. you may not have even known what a "home" truly is, or thought you wanted one. now, there is a touch of domesticity in your life, no matter what things are like otherwise, because you have a home, though you may not have a house proper.

most importantly, you now have someone to share this new facet of life with - a partner. similar to you or completely different, relationship unspoken or unrealized, heavily romantic or understated, they are slowly but surely becoming someone indispensable to you. you never could have seen this coming. and, of course, with domesticity comes a certain amount of intimacy, perhaps even the ultimate physical intimacy...you may be open to that already or you're working up to it when you'd hardly considered it before.

whether your situation is for the long term as it stands, could end at any moment, or a mere disguise you're using to lay low, you're getting comfortable. how does that make you feel? will you it accept a new lease on life - or will you sabotage yourself before someone else does?

[With the kind of nights Angel has, it's no surprise that Husk is up and moving before him. Even if it is a struggle, he wakes up with a hangover more often than he doesn't, and he wouldn't have called himself a 'morning person' either way, the important thing is, by the time Angel Dust is coming to consciousness, Husk has a pot of coffee going.

Husk didn't entirely notice when he had started adjusting his morning routine to account for Angel, but by now, it's not even a conscious effort. He makes coffee, and he makes sure there's enough in the pot for both of them, and when he pours his own mug, he leaves an extra on the counter. He might not be much of a cook, but when he does put in the effort of making breakfast, somehow, he always has some extra.

That's how Angel finds him this morning, watching eggs in a pan while he drinks his coffee, an extra mug set out already, and two empty plates set out to be filled.]

[Most of the time, Angel tries to force himself up early because one, he knows if he risks being even a little late Val will let him have it. Two, he likes preparing meals for the hotel. He showed up as a freeloader but quickly realized Niffty alone couldn't do all the cooking.

He was surprised to learn Husk could cook, too. Guy ate mostly crappy bar food and seemed more into serving drinks, but honestly? It's nice that Husk's willing to put in the effort for him.

The smell of coffee woke him, reviving his tired brain after yet another lengthy shoot and Val...being Val. And this time he had company, Velvette kept dragging him away to be her fuckin' dress-up doll and of course Val wasn't gonna blame her for interrupting the shoot. But none of that matters now, the sight of Husk busy in the kitchen is enough to melt away all those bad feelings.]

Hey, Legs.

[He says it without looking up from the pan, testing the scrambled eggs with a spatula. Saying he 'could cook' might be a bit of a stretch, but some scrambled eggs, at least, he could manage. Angel's timing is just about perfect, as Husk pulls the pan from the stove, splitting the eggs between both plates.

He finally looks up when he has a plate to present, holding one out for him before he takes his own, and there's a moment where he's taking stock, like he's checking for the damage of the previous night. He knows better than to ask about work, though, so he just gestures to the coffee set out, and takes a seat.]

[Good call, Angel doesn't wanna talk about it and ruin a perfectly good meal. But he appreciates the concern, and luckily he wasn't banged up too hard. It's sad when a few bruises and scratches are considered "light", he knows, but it's a win compared to most nights.

He accepts the plate and gets settled, helping himself to some coffee. If there's one thing bartenders are good at it's coffee, one of the top hangover cures of all time.]


You're too good to me, y'know that?

[He starts eating slowly, Husk may not be a top chef but this is still pretty damn good. Better than Charlie's attempt at cheese omelets last week...it's a wonder they can still even use that pan.]

[ They've both been so busy they haven't even had the chance to have a full conversation, let alone spar. Between missions far from Okhema (both of them) and council meetings (Phainon, mostly), it's been some time since they've seen each other.

Which probably makes the wrapped plate of food a surprise when it's dropped onto Phainon's lap where he sits on the rooftop. ]


Eat.

[ Mydeimos' voice commands him, as he drops to sit next to Phainon, his own plate of food in hand. It obviously isn't something made by hand, since he hasn't had the time and the plate itself is a takeout one. The next best offering Mydeimos could come up with was their preferred orders from the restaurant they both favor when they're in a hurry. ]
