The Body Heat Meme



Post with your character! They're now stuck in a very cold place of your choice. It can be anything, such as a freezing chamber, a cavern or a small cabin in the midst of a blizzard. The choice is up to you.
Comment around! Now your character has some company in this bone-chilling environment. The two of them share two things in common: clothes completely unfitting for this weather (be they summer clothes or even lingerie) and a blanket.
A blanket? Yes, just one warm blanket and no other ways to escape the cold. The two of them will have to share it in order to stay alive in this weather. Don't worry, you're sure to find a common language in this terrible situation!
So, uh, have fun, I suppose. Try to not freeze to death!
Protip: friction and body heat are both excellent ways to fend off cold.

[ fuzzy socked feet are aimed toward the entrance as she settles down beside him. welcome the way he leans against her side, while she lets a hand gently rub the back of his neck while he spoke. her heart aches for him anytime he mentions the times he has with his children. ]

Shit, Frank I’m sorry.

[oorah]

Yeah. [ it's soft, he's never sure what to say when people do that. it's normal, he knows. and he knows her sorry is much more sincere than most people's, but maybe that's what makes it so hard to accept. her hand on his neck feels nice -- comforting. his head tips forward to invite more touching. ]

I'm sorry too. [ that she had to abandon her kids. he's not sure he would have the strength to do that. actually, he knows he wouldn't. sometimes he feels close to going back to her town and killing them all, but it isn't his place. ]

[oldladyenough]

[ normally, she wouldn't say anything on the subject and yet there were times she honestly couldn't help it. so his response was of course what she was expecting. she continues to gently rub along the back of his neck, tense muscles seeming to relax under her touch and as he tips his head forward a bit more -- well she knows he's enjoying it. ]

I know. [ it's a spoken whisper as she bows her head down slightly, hiding her face for a mere moment as if calming herself. her hand doesn't cease moving though, still rubbing along the back of his neck. did she regret her decision in leaving her boys behind? of course, but in the end it kept them safe and that's what mattered to her. ]

[oorah]

[ his hand reaches out, squeezing her thigh gently. he watched micro go through this torment every day that they were trapped together in that stupid garage. he doesn't know how to watch tara go through it now. it's like the track is skipping, he keeps ending up in the same redundancies. he wants off the ride already.

trouble is, he knows she does too. it would be so much simpler if it were her fault, but it isn't. ] You'll get them back. When the time is right.

[oldladyenough]

[ feeling his hand fall upon her thigh, tara takes in a shaky breath as he gives it a gentle squeeze. she continues to rub the back of his neck while remaining silent beside him. it wasn't often she fell into such a depressive state, but right now she was having a hard time pulling herself out of it.

his words are soothing and honestly she hopes he's right, but as long as Gemma was alive and well she knew she'd never get her boys back. ] Yeah.

[oorah]

[ the hopelessness in that one word, the way she uncharacteristically falls quiet. all of it causes his heart to lurch out for her. frank leans more of his weight on her, rubbing his calloused palm back and forth over the front of her thigh in what he hopes is a comforting way. ] You know, all you'd have to do is say the word. [ he'd kill gemma. jax. all of them. it's not prudent to put it all out on the table that way, but she has to know that's who he is. he might be in early retirement and all, but he'd come out in a heartbeat for her. for those boys. ]

[oldladyenough]

[ the way he moves his palm back and forth along her thigh is actually very comforting to her, add in the weight of his body pressed against her just a bit more and it helps to calm her. she can feel the sting of tears in her eyes, she hadn't shed tears about leaving her boys since she first hit New York and then she had just shut it down. now, she felt it was going to boil over and the last thing she wanted was to cry in front of frank.]

It wouldn't accomplish anything, Frank. [ it would though, they both knew it and she had a feeling that he knew there were times she wanted to ask him to just go to charming and end those miserable excuses for humans. so her boys would be safe and sound. her hand slips down his neck and moves along his upper back. ]

[oorah]

It would get you your sons back. [ the rest... doesn't matter. his clean slate, sullied. he doesn't care about that, not really. he's not good at being a regular person and she knows it. it was only a matter of time anyway. ]

[oldladyenough]

Frank. [ a faint sigh eases through her lips while she turns her body just a bit, keeping that familiar weight of his own body against hers as well. her free hand comes up and cups the side of his face, gently turning it so their eyes can meet. ] I appreciate that you'd be willing to do that for me, I really do. And maybe a some point...but right now, I am happy just being here with you.

[ the corners of her lips curl up in a soft smile. he was trying to be a regular person and while he wasn't the best at it, she loved that he was still trying. ]

[oorah]

[ he turns to face her obediently, dark eyes catching on hers meaninfully. ] Okay. [ gruff, but he's not about to do anything without her go-ahead. and a selfish part of him knows that they can't last if he has to go back to running and she ends up, what? in protective custody with her boys? it isn't a terrible outcome, but she's right. not now. now maybe they can just... be. ]

Are you? [ happy ]

[oldladyenough]

[ she moves her thumb along his jawline, lips pursing just a bit at his gruff yet simple answer. the heat coming off the fire mixed with that of his body has warmed her up and she's honestly forgot they've been without power for a while now. her own dark eyes locked upon his. ]

I am. [ there was no hesitation. she was genuinely happy with him. ] Are you?

[oorah]

[ she's happy -- with him. he isn't sure if that means she's royally fucked up or that he's taken another wrong turn somewhere along the way, but. he's glad. he wants her to be happy, more than anything. ]

Yeah. [ or what passes for it in his sphere, anyway. he presses his forehead against hers and just stays like that for a long moment. ]

[oldladyenough]

[ she’s been through a lot in her life both mentally and physically, so she wouldn’t exactly call herself a stable person but she always wasn’t fucked up - - least not too badly. ]

Good. [ it comes out in a whisper as he presses his forehead against her own, causing her eyes to fall closed as they remain that way. ]

[oorah]

[ he cups her cheek and tries to ignore his hammering heart, kissing her once. it's almost chaste even as he tries to press all of his feelings against her lips with it. then he turns towards the fire and wraps an arm around her shoulder to hold her properly. he can make out its crackle through the fort's opening, and for some reason it comforts him. ]

Are you warm enough?

[oldladyenough]

[ the feel of his hand resting upon her cheek causes her breathing to increase slightly, her heart hammering in her chest as his lips met her own. lips pressed softly and yet quickly against her own she, tries to put her feelings fully into the kiss. when he pulls away and slips his arm around her shoulder she leans against him and rests her head against his shoulder. ]

Yeah, yeah I am. Are you?

[oorah]

Yeah, yeah. I'd say so. [ he kind of laughs around the words, squeezing her shoulders and resting his cheek against the side of her face. he honestly doesn't care if the power ever comes back on. ]

[oldladyenough]

[ smiling seeming to brighten as his words greet her ears in that sort of laugh, she can't help but chuckle softly in return while her hand slips down his back and moves to wrap around his waist. slender fingers easing along the hem of the shirt while she lets out a content hum. ] This is nice.

[oorah]

[ he nods his agreement and closes his eyes. for the first time in so long, he feels... safe. he knows he shouldn't fully relax, but it couldn't hurt for just a moment, right? ]

The power should go out more often. Who needs all that shit anyway?

[oldladyenough]

[ her fingers keep absently running along the hem of his shirt. grazing the skin every so often as she feels herself relaxing. they had a bit of a tense moment there, when their old lives came up -- however they had moved past it and were back to the here and now. it was nice. she hadn't felt this relaxed in a long time. ]

We can just keep the lights off. [ a soft tease as she smiles. ]

[oorah]

[ he hums in agreement and contentment both, though he can't help pulling in a sharp breath at the way her fingers graze his bare stomach. it's been so long since anyone touched him this way, sometimes he thinks he's forgotten how to react. ]

No complaints here. [ frank thrived in the dark. off the grid. but that wasn't exactly surprising. ]

[oldladyenough]

[ the way he suddenly seems to pull in a rather sharp breath doesn't go unnoticed by tara, she ceases the movement of her fingers just for a moment unsure if she should continue. ]

Figured you wouldn't have any. Just remember I'm a huge klutz in the dark. [ she wanted to make it a joke, but lets face it she tended not to do too well in the dark. unlike her partner beside her who could maneuver in the dark blindfolded. ]

[oorah]

I could carry you around on my back. [ he suggests brightly, his humor as always cropping up at bizarre times. he immediately mourns her touch when she stops stroking along his belly, and in response starts doing some exploration of his own. the hand around her shoulder slips down over her spine, tracing each vertebra through her sweater. ]

[oldladyenough]

I might just take advantage of that. [ perhaps he was kidding, but hell she'd take him up on that offer. a giggle easing past her lips while she took in a slightly shaky breath when his hand slipped down over her spin, head head dipping forward slightly as she enjoyed the way he took his time and traced along each vertebra along the way. ] That feels really nice.

[oorah]

Yeah? [ whether that's a response to the first thing or the second thing is anyone's guess. but he really would carry her around, that's not even in question honestly. ] Good.

[ frank moves all the way down to the base of her spine, pausing there a moment before working just as slowly back up, taking a moment to trace her throat and collarbone before his fingers move right back down again. this time, they deftly maneuver up under the hem of her shirt, pressing against warm flesh. ]

[oldladyenough]

Mmhmm. [ her slender fingers once again begin to ease along his stomach, the skin smooth beneath the tips of her fingers.

tara's head is still bowed as his hand reaches the base of her spine, while he slowly works his way back up she slowly brings her head back up and leans into the touch when frank takes that moment to work his fingers along her throat. when his fingers slip under the hem of her shirt she tilts her head to the side looking at him. her own fingers easing up his abdomen tenderly. ]
