*Enoch immediately pressed into his side, leaning against him, still holding Galiel with both arms.*

Lucifel...

[reargunner]

Oh, you know.

[He waves one hand airily, shifting against the arm that comes around him but not moving away from it. Abel has a point, in regards to Cain being surrounded by freaks, but he's not going to let him know that.]

Not everyone would catch their fighter in the middle of a hallway then demand a quick fuck in the cockpit of their ship.

Though things had been changing, for the better, there were still unknowns between the sisters. Anna had been willing to bother Elsa in her work space, in the halls, and over dinner. As of yet, Anna still saw the bedroom door as a wall. It was a space that Elsa needed, somewhere safe that she could hide away after the stress of the day was over. In spite of the improvements, she didn't want to push her sister away rather than bring her closer.

When the door opened quickly and Elsa looked so pleasant, Anna couldn't help the look of surprise on her face. She tried to recover but it ended up in stammering.

"What? Me? I, er. Yes! Yes, that'd be wonderful." Anna's expression quickly shifted and a bright smile lit up her face. "How was your day? Lots of Queenly work?"

[inthebiblicalsense]

[His cheeks color, still not really looking at Cain. It isnt worth the embarrassment yet.]

I blame you entirely for that. And if im weird you're the one who responded with, "sure I get off in there all the time" like it wasn't a big deal.

[highclimber]

[Kagami can hear Aomine approaching, at least— he's not that absorbed in shooting free throws. Kagami didn't have any particular plans for this meeting, honestly— just basketball. He didn't really care about anything like stupid feelings, and he definitely didn't care about any meteorological events that may occur at any moment.

He doesn't turn around, yet, but he does call out—]

Oi, you're late, idiot.

[uphill]

[Manami.... Are you really okay]

Aliens? [Thankfully he's talking to Onoda, whose imagination has become vivid enough through cartoons that he doesn't see the question as too strange. He looks up, his eyes locking on the moon. He adjusts his glasses.] Um, maybe they could? If they do, they must be invisible, otherwise someone would have seen them... But I wonder what kind of slopes they could even ride? The milky way?

[That's a nice image, riding bikes in the stars. Onoda's nervousness dissipates, and he takes another quick bite of his bread. He smiles.]

Are you anxious for the stars because you want to get back onto your bike?

[galiel]

[If it weren't for Enoch holding her then the both of them would probably latched onto Lucifel.]

[phos]

[Force reached up to wide away the tears of both, Enoch and Galiel.]

Honestly, what should I do with you...

[warriorscribe]

*He'd had his period of mourning too, after all. Enoch didn't immediately move, letting Force wipe away his tears as he leaned against him. Force could bring them through it. He'd always managed to so far.*

[industria]

But, if you're investigating an out of the ordinary situation, wouldn't breaking protocol be somewhat acceptable? [ Allison's more than accustomed to bending the rules by now. As a leader herself, she's already taken to altering the Code, becoming a protector rather than an actual hunter. It's her way of honoring family history. ]

[mindofcats]

A hand is raised in an attempt to calm her before words could come out but she startles too quickly and, well, it's too late to take back now. He watches her huff with a curiously raised brow, all but stomping to sit back down to tend to her flowers. He wasn't about to mention those were one of Frigga's favorites.

Loki did, however, wave his wrist about to collect all the strew flowers and set them in a neat, careful pile beside her for easy access.

"Not much time." He comments flatly at her underestimation. Though admittedly this is one of the only good places to hide. "Where do you think my brother and I hid as children?" The rhetorical question is voiced with dually raised eyebrows as he steps forward and off the ledge. "Once they're done searching your chambers they'll head here—they're tragically predictable."

[sangaku]

[ Somewhere deep in that brain of his, Manami's drawing the mental image of curvy roads connecting one planet to another, only they're of milk flowing instead of.....what Milky Way's supposed to be - defying any laws of gravity and space. Imagining tiny green aliens riding their bikes is much easier after that. And this is why, kids, you shouldn't skip your astronomy class. ]

I think so! Isn't that cool? [ He wiggles his feet back and forth, then lifts an arm to point it toward an indeterminable spot in the sky. He's getting way too excited... ] Maybe they can hop from one star to another so easily, climbing up the hills of planets...

[ Gotta get your head checked there, kid. But at least Onoda's smile returns and it's a reassurance enough, though Manami doesn't follow his lead to take another bite. He lowers his arm, but takes some time to decide where to place it until he ultimately rests it back onto the ground again. ]

Aren't you? ... I mean I'm having fun here chatting with you, Sakamichi-kun, but I can never stay away from my bike for too long.

[ Even though it's right next to them. ]

[rhapsoidein]

Genesis watched as the flowers collected in a neat pile, giving Loki a bit of a calculating look before taking one to add to the chain.

"And how will they know that I thought the same as you?" She replied, a bit miffed that she apparently thought of the same hiding spot as that brute and his brother. Great, now she was tragically predictable. Now what was she suppose to do?

[caffeinisms]

It does lend itself to other tactics, yes. [ and regardless, he doesn't seem terribly worried about it. such cut and dry methods of investigation have never sat well with him, anyway. too formed, too much of going off of assumptions. the last he'd followed protocol, he'd arrested the wrong man.

of course, by not following protocol, he'd wound up with a demon in place of his soul, and that was after having his badge taken away. ] Doesn't stop other people from trying to take a more accepted route.

[uphill]

[Manami.... At least he's getting the gist of it?? Onoda follows the slope of his arm up to the sky, mouth open, blinking at the stars. Even if Manami isnt' imagining quite the same thing, the image of it is beautiful. What would it feel like if one could bike up in space and not worry about its elements? Guess they both need their heads checked!!]

The hills of planets... What if they could? [His voice sounds small and faraway. When Manami answers, he's jarred from his thoughts. He turns his head and blinks at him almost in surprise. His cheeks blush a bit pink and he beams.]

I can't either. Ever since I started bicycling, I can't wait to get back on my bike whenever I'm off of it. [He glances back at their bikes, grins a little more, and then looks back to Manami.] We'll climb more hills on the way back.

[--Ah, so Manami's leaning back on his hands? He figures he should do the same. It might help to relax him a little more as he looks up. He wraps up his bun in the plastic again, sets it aside for now, and sets both hands onto the soil to lean back on. Just then, a single, white comet soars across the top of Onoda's field of vision. He gasps, points, and grins again.]

Manami-kun! Did you see it?

[punches_fog]

[Souji nods. He'd had the same thought many times, although it tended to come with images of giant robots more often than actual space exploration.]

[...he's pretty sure it's the same for Orihime anyway.]

Maybe we should go there. What kind of degree do you need to get into the JSA, anyway?

[mindofcats]

He wasn't calling her tragically predictable he was calling the guards tragically predictable. It wasn't her fault she chose a lovely location he and Thor favored too--she was new here, after all.

If anything Loki was warning her, if she wanted to stay hidden.

To hearing her pique the trickster turns from the rose bush taller than he is with a quick blink. "When they're searching for a princess away from home, looking to feel free?" This time his blink is slow as eyebrows lift in time with his shrug, turning back to the flowers. "Within this house the garden is the only place to escape to."

[rhapsoidein]

Genesis finished her flower crown, staying silent for the moment as she placed it upon her head. She heaved a small sigh and took the remaining flowers, creating a small bouquet and tying them off with a spare ribbon as she stood up. "Where else would you suggest I go, then? If that is what you are suggesting, of course."

He didn't seem in an awful hurry to keep stalling her or anything of the sort. If nothing else, the fact that he was warning her was proof enough. But she didn't know Asgard. What else could she do at this point?

[leekspins]

[Orihime laughs, turning her head to look up at him. Since he's close, she's careful not to speak too loudly.]

That would be wonderful, wouldn't it? I've always wanted to go! But I can't tell if you're being serious.

[He always has the same expression even when he says outlandish things. Ordinarily she chalks it up to his sense of humor, but space...SHE REALLY WANTS TO GO OKAY]

embarrassed to be seen in public with me

[tryharding]

[ kise with a tambourine singing SUKI SUKI DAISUKI while aomine slowly sinks into his seat with that face he made after he lost to seirin... the worst character arc. kise going for the breaking point.

and even though all the texts that aomine is sending him are Rude, it's better than being ignored— he's looking at you, kuroko— and even if kise pretends to be mock-hurt at all the insults that are being hurled his way, he's still Pleased. now if only aomine were here and not maybe getting lost on a bus going to hokkaido... ]

don't u like dinosaurs aominecchi?!

[ why does kise think aomine likes dinosaurs??? this is a mystery. ]

[browbeater]

[It was a request he still wasn't sure about. He was already second guessing that yes even as she pushed ahead with his consent. He couldn't deny that he wanted it, and the familiarity of her all over him was... weirdly comforting. But it also felt wrong.. Though he was focusing less on that with her mouth on his neck. The sensation caused a reaction and he shivered against her.

He closed his eyes. Just lie back and think of Republic City.

But he said yes, and if you're gonna make a mistake, you may as well go all the way, right? His hands went from the ground up into her hair, threading through it and pulling out her hair ornaments. His fingers pull out the strands, combing through the tangles before trailing down her back, along her sides and pulling her shirt up to create a space between her pants and her skin]

[mindofcats]

Walking along that hedge of roses, it's rare that Loki looked over his shoulder to see what it was she was doing—to see if maybe she'd given up any sort of conversation with him or if she was just mulling things over. When she finally replies he half turns towards her, if only let her know he was paying attention.

"Yes, that is what I am suggesting." Loki nods, gently rubbing a petal between two fingers. "They rarely check the library." He muses, dragging the pad of his pinky carefully along a thorn. "Do you like to read?" The question comes once he looks over to her.

[rhapsoidein]

Genesis blinks, not at all expecting the question. "Er, yes, I do, actually."

A pause and she hands him the bouquet. Perhaps as an offering? She isn't quite sure but continues on. He is known as a trickster, but what if he was serious? "Will you show me?"

sorry for lateness. long week was long u_u

[ladybedlam]

[The woman's gaze, on the other hand, is confused, practically bewildered for the moment. Yet as Celebrian came nearer the she returned a smile.] Ah... it is.

I normally don't find myself the time to come to a place like this. But I do find it soothes my soul to do so when I am given the opportunity.

[She looks up to the stars.] And tonight there seems to be a bit of special magic in the air...

[phos]

Everything will be fine... even if it doesn't look that way at the moment.
