He decided to not be mean, and kept from poking her again. He just laughed instead, and relaxed back on the bed, not pulling his wrist out of her grip.

[defythesea]

He laughed at her and then she laughed lightly too. He didn't pull his wrist away and she seemed to remember just then that he said he had tattoos. She turned over his hand, palm up and then laying back, relaxed as well, she smiled, "Show me where your tattoos are," she instructed. "Here," she offered her other hand to him, "Trace them with my fingers."

[war_n_peace]

"You can probably feel them," he said, taking her hand and putting the tips of her fingers against the tattoo. "Here. They're a little bit elevated. Sort of like smoother scar tissue, almost."

[defythesea]

She carefully felt across his skin, noticing the subtle raise of the parts that were inked and the parts that weren't. For the next few minutes, she diligently outlined the slightly raised skin, getting and idea of what they were like, feeling it out and noting it mentally. "Huh..." she flattened her palm over the inside of his wrist for a moment. "Did it hurt?"
 

[war_n_peace]

"Not too bad. The third one was worse." So far he had only mentioned the two on his wrists. But yeah, the Phoenix on his back had been worse, though mainly because of how large it was.

[defythesea]

"Third? What's that one?" she hadn't let go of his wrist yet, she was still tracing the minutely raised skin on the inside of his wrist, fascinated by the way it felt and that someone would subject themselves to pain like that.

[war_n_peace]

"It's on my back. And, tell you what. If you can figure out what it is, I'll owe you dinner."

[defythesea]

She smiled at the challenge and let go of his wrist. "Fine, roll over," she nudged his side a little to indicate that he should roll over faster than what he was doing, which was nothing.

[war_n_peace]

He chuckled and sat up to pull of the wifebeater he was wearing, and then laid down on his stomach, resting his head on his arms. It would be interesting to see if her sense of touch was sharp enough to figure this out.

*grabby hands at warren*

[defythesea]

She waited for him to stop moving before she pressed her palm to his back, first mapping out his back so she had an idea of the space she was working with. Once comfortable, sitting on her knees she moved both hands onto his back. He was toned. It was obvious that he was active and from there, she decided to start searching his back.
 
This one seemed newer than the other two, but that didn't much help in the way of it being raised. She followed the most prominent parts with her fingers, slowly and carefully tracing them and then going back over those same areas. This went on for several minutes of her following and then retracing the lines on his back, sometimes losing them and other times being misguided. She took a deep breath and tilted her head to the side. "I can tell that it's a bird. The wings are distinct, but I couldn't tell you what kind of bird," she said finally.

Heh!

[war_n_peace]

Oh man, that almost felt too good, he thought, as her fingers moved over his back. He almost regretted it when was done examining the ever so slight contours of the tattoo.

"Close enough," he said, being a bit impressed she had gotten that much. "It's a Phoenix. So, dinner. When and where?"

[defythesea]

"What is with you and fire?" she asked, laying back down on her back beside him, face up towards the ceiling. She was smiling to herself. She didn't often get to play guessing games with people.

"Hm..."she looked thoughtful. "I don't know. Surprise me, I guess."

[war_n_peace]

"I just like fire." He couldn't really say much more than that, could he. Hey, you know those superpowered people that sometime shows up to save the day? Yeah, I'm one of them!

he propped himself up on his elbows to look over at her, missing her cool touch on his back already. "Are you free this Friday?"

[defythesea]

She rocked her head to the side a little towards him, drawn to his voice. Her palms seemed to tingle. That was... odd. "I am free this Friday," she said with a smile.

This was just way too comfortable

[war_n_peace]

"Good." Okay then. He had a when. Then he just needed to come up with what and where. But he'd figure that out at his leisure later. Right now he was content with just relaxing a while longer, before he supposed he had to get out of bed, with no valid reason to stay there.

[defythesea]

"Good," she replied to him, taking a deep breath. She needed to get up out of bed, but she really didn't want to. She was comfortable here, but she knew that at some point she'd have to move. 

A moment later she heard a soft whine from beside the bed and she flopped her hand off the edge. Apollo nudged it and she smiled, quietly gesturing the dog up onto the bed, who immediately climbed over her to see Warren instead. She laughed as the dog laid himself down between them. 

[war_n_peace]

Bad dog, Warren thought. But he couldn't help a grin. Still, that was his cue that he should get up. So he turned and sat up, tolling his neck and shoulders to get a few kinks and some stiffness out. He was a bit at a loss for what to do, though. "Mind if I use your shower?" he asked, mostly for something to do with himself.

[defythesea]

Noel didn't exactly know what to do either. She had this strange desire to be closer to him and when she felt the bed shift and he was getting up, she wasn't sure if he was leaving or not. 

"Oh, yeah, sure," she said, turning onto her side and nuzzling her dog a little. "There's extra towels in the cabinet in the bathroom," she offered up, since she didn't leave towels out often for others. Or ever. She wanted to ask him more, but she couldn't think of what to say. 

"Apollo, I'm blaming you," she whispered to her dog and smiled.
