Thea Queen l Arrow

[redarrowqueen]

(M/F and canon through last seasons crossover.)

[sonofabass]

OOC: This feels as if they really should do it. Dodging paparazzi? "Mia" surprising Chuck in his office? At Queen Consolidated?

[redarrowqueen]

(Thea aka Mia splits for NYC post island (so ignoring canon for the moment) and surprising Chuck at the office? She invokes the escape hatch and only Oliver knows she's ran away just to deal on her terms? And keeping the idea of inner circles being in the know but under wraps in public?)

[sonofabass]

(Sounds like a plan. Do you want to kick us off?)

[redarrowqueen]

If Thea was being honest with herself she just wanted a way of out of Star City, especially after the island. So post escape, a few speedy texts and a high speed packing up she was on the road via bike for NYC and to the safety net that was Chuck. But to keep the press guessing she made the appointment as "Mia Dreaden" her go-to alias and one only a handful knew she still used. So after a stop to drop off her backpack and parking her bike she arrived at Chuck's office in full motorcycle wear, partly planned and partly because he had mentioned liking her in skin tight jeans. "Mr. Bass will be with you shortly Miss Dearden" as Thea sits and waits, she's not eaten so well since the island and it shows. Especially since she lived on coffee and fries while on the road. Add in a few healing bruises and anyone could see its been a rough few days. "Minor car accident, nothing to worry about." she reassured the clerk that inquired about what happened.

[sonofabass]

It was a boring day at the office; wall to wall meetings mostly with lawyers and project managers, and making the morning even worse he'd had to fire one of them - which wasn't the only reason he was delighted when he heard Thea was at the main desk.

He wondered if Thea would notice the glare from his secretary who despite Chuck's denial still thought that Mia's affection was ... negotiable. Not that she'd say anything; the glares for Mia were mostly because she was loyal to Chuck and to her salary.

Still, he cut his meeting short and Thea would see another lawyer leave his office before she was sent in. "Thea!" Chuck's delight at her visit was open as he wrapped her up in a hug, and then he frowned briefly at how bony she was. "What have you been doing?"

[redarrowqueen]

Thea lit up when Chuck pulled her into a hug, she needed this. "Could not explain it all through a few texts but I'll try." as Thea gave Chuck the quick and dirty version of the last week plus. "So I packed and ran, spent most of last night on the road. Had to invoke escape hatch but Oliver knows I've skipped town." since they had done the math and figured with an all nighter Thea could pull Star City to NYC in about 12 hours via bike. Plus when Thea came up for visits she would let Oliver know in case anyone got nosy (he respected her and Chuck keeping things under the radar).

[sonofabass]

Chuck frowned as he drew her down onto his lap. "I might have to ban you from leaving New York until I think you're a healthy weight again, Thea." His lips and tone said he was teasing but his tone was concerned. "And you know I'd love to keep you collared for a while." Of course he'd only want to if she wanted it but he thought she'd enjoy herself with no responsibilities.

[redarrowqueen]

Thea had almost totally given in but her guard was down. "Just knew it was time to run." she confessed. "And maybe a few hours of the collar is what I need." she realized softly, Chuck respected her need to keep her voice after everything she's been through but also knows when she needs to just be and not have to stare down things. "I spent most of the ride up here rehashing everything from the island so cue dark mental place?"

[sonofabass]

Chuck nodded. "When you're ready to talk about it I'm here. And until then?" He smiled, drawing her body closer for a kiss as he twisted his hand in her hair to tug it gently. "You know you're safe here, Mia." Using of course her fake name if she didn't want to be Thea for a while.

[redarrowqueen]

Sometimes becoming the mask (or the fake name) was all Thea needed to catch her breath. She leaned in with a sweet kiss and a quick hand squeeze,"Its mutual you know." quietly speaking of the handful of times Chuck's showed up at her place in the dead of night for the same reasons. "I eventually have to go home but for now I don't have to think about or even discuss the last few weeks, till I'm ready." knowing nightmares of the island would happen knowing her past.

[sonofabass]

"Of course." Chuck smiled before his voice dropped. "How bad are the nightmares?" Part of the subtext there was about whether it was necessarily safe to sleep in the same bed as her; on one occasion he knew of her fist had ended up an inch from his throat before she actually woke up.

[ This could be so cute omfg. Open to pretty much anything. Marvels especially loved - bonus points for ones that would be considered "cracky" crossovers like the Avengers or serious, street-level heroes.

Available with humanesque or xeno biology. ]

[winscenario]

[ Would you be interested in a Jim Kirk? Figured I'd ask and make sure before writing up a starter... ]

[innerbeauty]

[ I am absolutely interested! ]

[winscenario]

[ Great! Let me know if you'd like anything changed. ♥ ]

[ Considering the Enterprise visits the Nova Empire on official business more often than not, opportunities for them to really spend time together are, sadly, few and far in-between. Granted, Starfleet doesn't frown upon its officers getting involved with people from species that aren't part of the Federation, but they don't exactly condone their higher-ranking officers to be socializing and engaging in encounters of a more intimate nature when they're supposed to be, well... working.

It tends to put a damper on things, especially since he likes Mantis a lot, and he likes spending time with her. She's a curious person, always a bit of a mystery, and definitely odd, but in a cute sort of way. Usually he manages to sneak off one night or two so they can spend some time together whenever he's in Xandar, but this time around he hasn't been very lucky so far.

It's been over a week now, and it may or may not be starting to make him a little crazy that he crosses paths with her so often, only to be called away before they get to exchange more than a few simple pleasantries. The last couple times he's even let out a frustrated groan and rolled his eyes when he got the call, but he couldn't very well ignore them.

Now, he wouldn't exactly call this an ambush, but... it sort of may look like one. He's been sneakily avoiding crossing paths with most people as he moves through the hallways at Nova Headquarters, knowing that her team had just been called in for a briefing, and when he finally spots her walking down the hallway by herself, he reaches out and takes hold of her arm, tugging her into his poor excuse of a hideout, a corner hidden from sight that only really gives them a modicum of privacy. ]

Sorry. [ He says, even though his voice sounds very far from apologetic. ] Got tired of being patient.
