[ and just like that, she's gone. he blinks as he watches her disappear while he sits on the couch, a plate of food balanced on one knee. he doesn't know...he doesn't really know what's just happened. had they finished the conversation? or had she wanted out of it so she'd gotten up to go shower?

it's something he sits there thinking about even while he dimly hears the water come on. does she want something like this to happen today? is she expecting him to do something when she's out of the shower?

he scowls a bit, glaring around the empty room before picking his own plate up and dumping it into his sink. he'll wash them tomorrow.

while she showers, he changes into a pair of cotton pants and a tee shirt, still debating on what to do when she's done with her shower. or maybe she wants him to go in there like she had done to him?

he's thinking about this too much. way too much. eventually, he returns to the kitchen to wash the dishes and grab some water before he pads into the bedroom and sits down, settling his things neatly on the bedside table.

does he know what he wants yet? no. but again, that's because he doesn't know what she wants him to want? that doesn't make sense. he's confused. ]

[ his reverie is broken by her reappearance and he blinks, pulling himself out of his thoughts and focusing over on her. her hair's wet around her face and she's wearing another of his shirts and somethings tightens in his chest. he rubs at the spot idly even if he knows what's happening. ]

I come here all the time.

[ for once, he knows she's teasing and tries to play along even as he swings his legs up onto the bed and crosses his arms over his stomach to watch her. ]

And lately so do you.

[ called out. ]

Did you have a good shower? [ certainly had seemed that way by the humming and all. one corner of his mouth even curls up at that and he does nothing to hold it back. ] I haven't decided what to do.

[ but instead of staring pensively into space, he could just stare at her? ]

I did.

[ and he doesn't regret that one bit. he doesn't mind when she just shows up or comes back with him after they've been out but he knows there's a significance when he does something because it's not typical. even he's aware of the fact that he's usually not the person to make the plans out of the two of them.

he doesn't immediately answer the next question because he gets a little caught up in watching her...do that thing with her hair. she's puddling water on his floor but he does not care. ]


I haven't made a list. [ because it was very hard to find paper in this city. ] Television. Sleep. Talking though you know I am no good at that.

[ other things probably. ]

I'm not tired.

[ he'd been a little weary earlier, upset at what he perceives as an inability to do anything to help those he kept close and the anger that he let course through him. sometimes, it was exhausting to be angry as often as he was but it's been such a facet of his life for so long that he has no idea how to change that.

he doesn't think he even wants to change it. he's an angry man who's trying to learn to outlet that in different ways since his life has been in a constant state of upheaval since his arrival to this place. ]


It was just one of the suggestions that I thought of. [ his suggestions are not all that exciting though. he chews on the inside of his cheek while he continues to watch her steadily. ] I'm fine. Wide awake. Fueled by lettuce wraps.

[ perhaps one day he'll be used to her easy displays of affection but today is not that day. that doesn't mean he's shocked or expressing surprise in some obvious fashion but he still is albeit quietly and subtly. when you molded your life into something so isolationist and solitary, having that change in a short amount of time was going to take some time to adapt to.

but, he lets her move his legs around and sits back so she's more comfortable when she eventually settles. she turns on the television but his attention stays focused on her especially since she can't really see him looking. ]


No, this is fine.

[ he doesn't even know what's on. his eyes are roaming over the curve of a shoulder underneath his shirt, the wet ends of her hair, the way said hair lays against her neck, the warmth of her against his chest, and how he can feel her breathe through her back and his chest. ]

Perfectly fine.

[ whatever it is. ]

[ he could doze off, he realizes. he's warm and he feels less like he's losing control of a situation that is already slipping out of his grasp and she's there, doing nothing but giving him the comfort that her presence brings (when that had happened, he does not know). he could shut his eyes and he could fall asleep.

but then she touches him and he shivers, a reaction that banishes any sleepiness for the time being. he'd become so overly focused on just tracing the lines of her body and memorizing how she felt against him that he'd forgotten that touch could be a thing.

she hadn't. it's a light touch, a gentle touch so he tries to cover up the shiver by shifting like he was getting more comfortable and by saying nothing. watch the movie, ignore his sensitivity. ]

It doesn't hurt.

[ far from it, in fact. he reaches forward and covers one of her hands with his, giving it a warm squeeze before letting go. ]

At all. I promise. [ his legs actually look the least damage when he was fighting since everyone tended to go for his face. it's silly in a way because, being as tall as he is, they should go for his legs.

they just never do. ]


I'm fine. [ just -- he doesn't even know how to describe it. ] I apologize. I'm fine, keep watching your movie.

No.

[ he's glimpsed bits and pieces in the moments where he hasn't been looking at her or tucked up in his own head with his thoughts but if she asked him what was going on, he would not be able to tell her.

his fingers twitch a little as she touches him, reactions born by the sensitivity of his palm and wrist in general. he would not call it ticklish but it is certainly close. ]


I was watching other things. [ and 'other things' hadn't been the far wall for once in his life. ]

[ he understands. he doesn't immediately react, choosing instead to twitch just the slightest bit at the drag of her fingers against his wrist and hand, proving that even giant russians had their extra sensitive spots. but that's forgotten when she laces her fingers with his and tugs his hand a bit. ]

I would not want to interrupt your movie.

[ he might have meant that a few weeks ago when things were new and he still wasn't sure what it was she wanted from him (despite her best efforts). this time, he's actually teasing just the slightest bit. his voice is still as deep as it usually is but he tries to instill some lightness so she, at least, can tell he's joking.

trying to joke. ]


You looked quite enthralled.

Or not.

[ illya has serious doubts that he's even going to remember this movie existed after tonight. maybe, if she found it on television a few months from now (and does he realize he's thinking of this in months? no, he does not and don't point it out), he might recognize an image or two but probably not. ]

You have something else in mind to fill the time? [ look, he knows. he's not that dumb. when she turns, he lifts his other hand, curving it around the back of her neck and kneading just slightly. she's still warm from the shower and he murmurs something too quiet to really be heard. ]

That is a terrible joke.

[ too bad he laughs at the same, a quick, short sound that he clamps down on quickly. it's not that he doesn't like to laugh, he just...doesn't really expect to laugh. but that terrible joke had surprised it out of him.

illya keeps his hand against the back of her neck for a few moments longer before letting it wander up into her hair. he tangles a few strands around his fingers and then gives the barest of tugs just to see what she'd do. ]

[ it's heady, having control like this even for a moment. he's used to being in control of all situations, to having a precise amount of say of how he'll get from one point to another.

this is an entirely different thing altogether. he's not planning anything because he has no idea what the next five minutes might hold. so, it's a tenuous, risky kind of control and it gives him a quiet thrill.

keeping a hand in her hair, illya leans forward and drags his mouth from the edge of her jaw down her neck and to her shoulder where he breathes in, breathes out. ]

[ he's trying not to think too much. trying being the operative word. because a part of him just wants this to be something slow and soft and completely focused on her but the other part can't quite stop thinking about their conversation of earlier. about what she'd offered and how enticing something like that sounded.

he's trying not to overthinking because he's hoping clarity will just come to him but — he realizes he might just have to ask her if she has a preference. he also realizes she might not give him an answer.

so.

he lifts his head until his lips are close to her ear and just stay there for a moment, letting his breath brush against her before dipping lower and finally talking. ]


How are your injuries?

[ it's important to know for a few things that might be floating through his head. he's not intending to stop but he does want to make sure that he doesn't do the wrong thing for her physical health. ]
