 Otherwordly Meme

Sometimes all you need is a word to spark off an idea.

1. Post a comment with your character's name, canon, and any preferences you may have (no shipping, no smut, etc.)

2. Leave the comment blank or post a word or two in the body.

It may also help if you list scenarios you would like to play.

3. Reply to other people, either with words you picked out, or words they posted as prompts for a thread.

[He's still not sure he's happy with the question. He's sure Hana knows his devotion to her is absolute. So its not so much that he thinks she doubts him as -

maybe herself?

Either way, the answer is the same. He settles down a little bit but pulls her closer, making sure the blanket is tucked around her to keep in their shared body heat. And his eyebrows stay knit.]

Why didn't you chose Lucio instead of me? He's there. You two work well together. [Leaning down, he rests his forehead against hers, exhales and his voice softens.] Allura is a wonderful woman and I respect her and her friendship. I value her. But I need you. If I had never met you, if you hadn't run into me at the festival, I still wouldn't be with Allura. I'd still be waiting, even if I never found out what I was waiting for. I don't fall in love because its the sensible, convenient, easy thing to do.

Koibito, I fell in love because I couldn't do anything but.

[ She doesn't doubt her own feelings for him, not in the least. But sometimes she has to wonder about the situation they'd put themselves in, having to make their love reach across the expanse of space, and whether she's really capable of it...

It's moments like these, however, when he does things like pull her in close and rest his forehead to hers and speak so sweetly that quell those doubts of hers. She smiles, humming, rubbing her nose lightly against his as she listens to his words and takes them to heart and locks them up there to cherish forever. He--

He's in so deep.

And so is she. ]

You're so cheesy.

[ She presses a kiss to his cheekbone, just below his eye. ]

I didn't mean to worry you. I really-- really love you, you know. I've never felt this way about anyone ever before. You're the only one. I just-- had to wonder. Because I know this is hard on us sometimes.

Oh, and Lúcio's my best friend, silly. He's basically an angel and he's super talented and great and cute, but he's got nothing on you, jagiya.

[headspacedad]

[She stays snuggled in close and that's a good sign.

So is the fact she calls him 'cheesy' something he's come to equate with her telling him she loves him without saying it. The kiss helps too. Content with that he settles down, intent on getting her to sleep and perhaps even catching a little of it himself. Between the storm and Hana he suspects his mind might be settled enough that it won't dredge up anything while he's unconscious. Gentle, he brushes her damp hair up and over the pillow, both for the sight of it and to keep it from hanging against her body and chilling her.

But his eyebrows do go up - and then up some more as she piles praise on her friend. He like Lucio just fine and is aware that, while the younger man might be in love with Hana, he cares about her enough not to make it an issue. He's not worried himself where Hana's heart is or how strong her loyalty goes. She's very obvious and duplicity isn't her strong suit, something he's never going to complain about. Her piling all the praise on though makes him wonder if she's trying to tease him with jealousy. He huffs a soft exhale out his nose.]

An angel, huh?

[bunnyhopped]

[ The fact that Lúcio is actually about a year older than Shiro (which is easy to forget given that the man stands at an astounding 5'3") probably says something about Hana and older guys.

That aside, however-- okay. Maybe she is teasing. Just a little bit. The corners of her lips curl into an almost catlike smile at Shiro's reaction even when she makes a noncommittal noise. ]

Uh-huh. He's one of the nicest people I know. [ she's genuine, though, when she says, ] I'm glad I got to know him. I've been a big fan of his music for the longest time but he's even cooler after you spend time with him.

[ and then for good measure, she plants another kiss to the scar along Shiro's nose. ] You're still number one, though.

[headspacedad]

[If asked, Shiro would admit, he doesn't know most of her crew's ages. Or all that much about them personally other than whatever they've talked about when they've met or things that relate to Hana. It's not that he doesn't care about her teammates, its that they rotate in and out and he's not there very much to interact. If he's there, its usually for Hana and its usually to take her somewhere he can have her to himself instead of sharing.

Taking her out into deep space would probably be considered that.

His lips shift, go into a bit of a crooked smile and he wraps her a little bit closer.]

I'd better be. I'm the one you're currently naked in bed with.

[bunnyhopped]

[ Hana understands. If it weren't for having spent quite some time out in space, now, she wouldn't have known much at all about the other paladins, either, beyond the fact that some of them were fans of hers. And that they appeared to be in complete shock upon discovering that their fearless leader had managed to catch the attention of one Hana "D.Va" Song.

In any case, Shiro's response draws a laugh from her and, maybe a little deviously, she presses herself against him even more when he pulls her closer and offers a characteristically smug look. ]

I am naked in bed with you, aren't I? Lucky you. You're living a whole bunch of people's fantasies, dude.

[headspacedad]

[Its quite possible that some of that shock is that Shiro caught himself anyone at all. He's fairly sure there had, at one time, been some elaborate plots he thankfully never had go into effect around him involving getting him on a date with someone, anyone. Because his team was still too interested in his love life and him have a lack of one had been something that they'd found unacceptable.

Despite his assurance that he, the only person involved, was fine with it.

He's grateful that stage at least is over.

Instead he hums as she cuddles in closer, wrapping her more comfortably and closing his eyes as he settles in. It's good to hear the spunk back in her voice and the cocky confidence. Even if talking about other people fantasizing about her naked isn't exactly something he enjoys.[

Lucky me. [He agrees it honestly, hand smoothing along her back.] You have a universe to choose from now and you're here with me.

[bunnyhopped]

[ At least nobody can chide Shiro for going about anything half-assed because they may have tried to encourage him to date people and hey may have spurned them from doing so but when he did finally decide to go for someone--

Shiro would end up with an international celebrity and military hero.

Not that those were the only reasons he fell for her; she knows it goes much deeper than that. But if the topic ever came up Hana might have to laugh at Shiro's go big or go home approach to dating.

As it is, she merely quirks a brow at him skeptically even as she reaches over and cups his cheek, thumb brushing against his cheekbone. ]

So do you.

[ After all, Hana wouldn't even have a universe to choose from if not for Shiro. ]

You could have a space princess or anyone else in the universe but I guess the best girl from Earth is a good choice too.

[ She winks, which is all the confirmation anyone really needs to know that she's in a good mood and that she's referring to herself as the best girl from Earth. ]

[headspacedad]

[His eyes slip shut at the cup and brush of her and then he hums and turns his face into it, pressing a kiss to her palm. His eyes are warm and deep when they open and he looks at her over her hand a long moment before shifting his head back onto the pillow.]

The best girl from Earth is my only choice.
