life and its complications.

[It is a laundry day in someone else's mind.

He took extra steps to leave her alone to her task. She has quite a task ahead of her, and Nigel would only be in the way. Thus, he kept to cat naps, to shifting between waking and sleeping states.

Eventually, his throat demands a trip, and he emerges from his room with the intent to go to the kitchen. An intent that cuts short inches from his destination, when he catches sight of white-gold in the laundry room. Of skin he shouldn't be catching, a floral shape etched against the pale. White with a blue edge. Maybe. It's hard to tell with his sight.

Nigel halts, caught in an emotion unnamed. And as with all his awkward steps, he begins with words.]


A tattoo?
purificatio: (tear.)

[ She stares at the line and its damnable human occupants. Acknowledges the boy's strange reactions at her side. Asks dryly. ]

Do you even want ice cream?
purificatio: (fade.)

[ Abrupt turn. Linking elbows to drag the boy with. ]

...Home again, home again, gig-a-gig-gig.
purificatio: (found.)

[ The heights make it difficult but she persists. ]

Then obviously you must be around me more.
purificatio: (enjoy.)

[ She looks to him when he touches her hair, expression neutral and light. It's wanted, that touch. Even if she does not say it. ]

So delicate. Perhaps I should handle you more gently. I'd be sad if you didn't want to be around me anymore.
purificatio: (lost.)

[ Aw, no more touching. She releases his arm and spins to walk backward in order to face him. ]

Well, then, neither of us should make each other sad, right?
purificatio: (steps.)

[ She stops for a beat, in order to reach to touch his shoulder. ]

Then don't promise me. Just don't become scared of me. I want to stay by you
purificatio: (simple.)

[ She squeezes his hand and gives a playful smile. ]

Of course. But I notice you didn't agree to my terms.
purificatio: (lost.)

[personal profile] purificatio 2015-07-03 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
[ Her expression falls, though she doesn't know it. She lets him lessens the hold, and withdraws her hand. ]

Apologies, then. I don't mean to trap you.
purificatio: (steps.)

[personal profile] purificatio 2015-07-03 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
[ She watches him, silent, something churning behind her eyes. ]

Come home. We can talk there.
purificatio: (lost.)

[personal profile] purificatio 2015-07-03 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
[ She leans in and bumps him with her shoulder. ]
purificatio: (fade.)

[personal profile] purificatio 2015-07-03 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
[ The name draws her back; makes her blink up with large eyes. She has an urge to touch him suddenly, and it makes her takes a step back--to give him room. ]

...Okay.

[ He can take his minutes as they return back. ]
purificatio: (lost.)

[personal profile] purificatio 2015-07-03 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
[ It is a silent short walk back, and she remains the same as he unlocks the door. They shift inside and she pauses in the living room.

Cocks her head to look at him. ]
purificatio: (new.)

[personal profile] purificatio 2015-07-03 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
[ Here, she cannot help it. She closes the distance between them and slips her arms around his waist. ]

...Hi.
