Teammates?

Team Tension


Ideally, a team works like a well-oiled machine, with all the cogs existing in harmony. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that two team members hating each other could easily lead to disaster. But have you ever considered the consequences of two team members liking each other...too much? Love or attraction can be a dangerous force, even when you're on the same side. Can you both be professional? Or is this a reason somebody needs to make a "no intra-team dating" rule?

  • "Team" is pretty loose here. Superhero team, sports team, debate team, #squadgoals, I don't care.
  • Just comment with your preferences and reply to others.

Then I'll focus more on the person I see before me than the one I only heard stories of.

[ She smiles faintly. ]

I don't have an interesting life. I do, however, have a cat.

I had one as well. Ended up losing him though, but I'm sure he's in a good place.

[ Her expression softens a little, a genuine moment of sympathy before she moves on. Natasha doesn't keep lingering regrets. ]

I honestly never saw myself as a person who kept pets but she refused to leave.

[He takes notice, his smile softens too.]

It's good you have one. Pets are surprisingly handy to keep around, even if stubborn.

I guess we're stuck with each other.

Could have worse company.
susceptibilities: (pas de deux)

[personal profile] susceptibilities 2016-09-15 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
Easily.

[ Though it's still strange when anything seeks out hers ]
legitlessgrump: (laugh)

[personal profile] legitlessgrump 2016-09-15 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
Well, at least we finally found something we can agree on.
susceptibilities: (langtree's lament)

[personal profile] susceptibilities 2016-09-15 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
It was easier than it looked.

[His stomach growls...loudly. Almost sounded like a monster. Seems like it had enough of Hei's stalling.]

...I think I'll go and cook. Can't avoid it for much longer.
susceptibilities: (cuzco)

[ She keeps her amusement under a tight lid. ]

My, that's quite bad.
legitlessgrump: (small smile)

[personal profile] legitlessgrump 2016-09-15 09:42 am (UTC)(link)
Well, if you need me, I'll be in the kitchen cooking up a storm.

[He turns to walk away, hand on his stomach; may have to make a sandwich at least to calm it down long enough. Though before he boards the elevator, he turns his head back and smiles at Natasha.]

Thanks for the talk though. Hope we have another enlightening conversation in the future.
susceptibilities: (danse infernale)

[personal profile] susceptibilities 2016-09-16 08:43 am (UTC)(link)
I'll be sure to remain enlightened then.

[ And she smiles back. ]

[Ooc: shall we end it here? Also, thanks for the fun. :) these two interacting was interesting!]
susceptibilities: (melodie)

[personal profile] susceptibilities 2016-09-16 09:00 am (UTC)(link)
[ Sounds good ♥ Thank you! ]
legitlessgrump: (laugh)

[personal profile] legitlessgrump 2016-09-16 11:38 am (UTC)(link)
[If you ever wanna do more with these two in the future, totally up for it!]
susceptibilities: (invocation)

[personal profile] susceptibilities 2016-09-16 01:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[ I'd like that! ]
legitlessgrump: (small smile)

[personal profile] legitlessgrump 2016-09-16 02:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[Anything come to mind? Perfectly okay with waiting for another good time too; rl can be hectic.]
susceptibilities: (scheherazade)

[personal profile] susceptibilities 2016-09-17 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
[ Not right now! I'll let you know. ]
