Sometime after the mess with the public execution, Dorian felt well enough to get out and visit Morgan. He didn't want to keep her in the dark, but at the same time it probably wouldn't be a good idea to let her know about the new hole in his back… or that's what he told himself. He knocked on her door, meaning just to have some light conversation... Morgan: You look nothing like a lady, promise. Dorian: Even with this hair? Morgan: Most women I know don't have scruff. Dorian: Very true. *Sits down* Morgan: *sits on his lap, pin-up style* Dorian: Playful today? *More like every day* Morgan: Just a bit. *relaxes though and nuzzles into him* Summer's my favorite season. Dorian: *Nuzzles her neck, kissing her a little* Funny, I just feel like staying in bed. Morgan: Aww, no bikinis and sunshine~? Dorian: For me~? No. Morgan: I meant looking at them, good ball. *chuckles* But fiiine, I'll just go myself. Dorian: I never said I wanted to be alone in bed. Morgan: I know~ But I wanna go play in the water. Dorian: *Smiles* We can go then. Morgan: Aww, but if you don't wanna go, kind of makes it less fun, you know? Dorian: I do. But when you come from Australia the sun loses it's appeal. Morgan: Mmm, I guess. I burn real easy if I don't slather on sunscreen, but it's so dark and damp here most of the year... The water's a little too cold for swimming to be honest, but I do it anyway. Dorian: I'll bring blankets. Morgan: Might be better than just a towel, yeah. Dorian: And we can snuggle after the sun goes down. Morgan: Heh, I plan on more than that~ Dorian: On the beach? Morgan: Why not? Dorian: Just seems like it might be uncomfortable Morgan: Nah, should be fine~ And most people are gone after dark anyway. Dorian: I'll take your word for it. *smiles* Need a big umbrella or a tent then Morgan: *kisses him* Big umbrella should be fine. Dorian: *Rubs a hand up her back* I haven't been to the beach since I was a kid. Morgan: No? Why? Was the water not close to where you lived? Dorian: Not really, though there were plenty of creeks around. I just meant I haven't seen Arcadia's beaches... which is a little crazy considering we're an island. Morgan: Mmm, it's an island, but around the city isn't always great for swimming. Najmah Co. owns the best one and keeps it open to the public. I just know someone with a private-ish one, that's all. Ish. He shares it with his neighbors. Dorian: Damn. *A bit stunned* How do you know this guy? Morgan: Through my college courses. He's a professor, but not in my field. Dorian: Aaah. Old friend? Morgan: *smiles sheepishly* You could say that. Dorian: An ex? *Smiles.* Morgan: Yeah, from when I started college. Didn't know he was a prof then. Dorian: That's quite a mistake. *Chuckles* Morgan: Eh, not the worst thing I could do. Like I said, he's not in my field. I'm taking business courses still, but he teaches physics. Not really going to see much of him in the halls, you know? Dorian: Oh I know. Will I have to proof my worth? *Joking* Morgan: Not at all~ Dorian: He can't have been happy to lose you Morgan: He has other more low risk women on his mind these days I'm sure. Dorian: But he still lets you use his beach? Morgan: Yep, not a big deal Dorian: Okay. *Nervous laugh* Morgan: What? You afraid he's going to shoot you in the head on his oh so exclusive beach and steal me away? Dorian: Something like that. Morgan: You were never outed as MC, though, so he would have reason to. Dorian: You're not enough reason? Morgan: Not for murder, no. Dorian: I have to disagree. Morgan; *laughs, smacking his shoulder* You've been with those crazies too much then~ Dorian: The MC are hardly exclusive when it comes to killing for love. Morgan: Oh, I know... but still. Dorian: It's not something you'd want? Morgan: You murdering someone? Not particularly, not over me anyway. Dorian: I don't think you need to worry about that. Morgan: I wouldn't think I had to worry at all. Dorian: *Sighs* Things are changing... who knows. Morgan: Feeling a bit bloodthirsty all of a sudden? *teasing to try and get him to loosen up* Dorian: *Smiles, a bit sad* No, just things are getting unpredictable. People are going to die, I'm sure. Morgan: ...people always die, Dorian. Just how it goes sometimes, and the best thing you can do is try not to be the one who does the killing. Dorian: Even if I'm preventing someone else from dying? Morgan: Mmm... that's defensive. Not what I'd call "killing." Dorian: It's an exchange, you kill someone so someone else can live - it doesn't make it better. Morgan: Can always shoot to injure rather than kill... but you're not that experienced with a gun, are you? *N always got mad at her when she wouldn't shoot to kill, but she kept with it as best she could.* Dorian: Never picked one up, no. Morgan: Mmm, then it might be harder for you to just injure. Dorian: *Shrugs* I just hope it doesn't come to that. *Kisses her* Don't suppose there are any dangerous assignments I should know about? Morgan: No, none. *grins and shakes her head* I work mostly for the bureo now, in the Citadel, doing paperwork and budgeting and stuff. Dorian: .... you don't know how relieved I am to hear that. Morgan: Nah, after doing abroad work, I'm fine without slinging a gun around and running down no good terrorists day to day. Dorian: *Smiles* ...listen, if things go badly... can you get out? Morgan: Huh? Dorian: Of the country. Morgan: ...Dorian, we don't have to leave. Whatever happens, we won't die. Can't promise it'll be great, and it might get lonely. We'll make it though. *Not as confident as Fortune, no, but she's mostly just trying to make him feel better.* We survived the Scylla and all the rest of it... so just because we're together now, it doesn't mean we can't make it. Dorian: *He can't quite explain the clenching feeling in his gut* Something feels wrong Morgan, I just want to know you're safe. Morgan: *gives him a kiss* I'll be careful, okay? Nothing serious happens at the Citadel unless the Wisemen are having a spat, and even then, no one's going to die right then and there from it. Dorian: *Smiles* Good to know. It's just... well, you know how they can be. Keep yourself safe, I won't want to hear about you going out in a blaze of glory or anything. *That's the worst part, hearing about it rather than being told directly* Morgan: Nah, I usually kept out of the main fire anyway. We shoot from up top... although I'm not really a sniper. N would just jump us to a good shadow for me to paralyze someone. Usually. Dorian: Playing it safe? *Actually that's pretty terrifying, thank god the woman is a sympathizer* Morgan: Why waste your time trying to pick people off from a building all the time when you can just blink down there, paralyze them, get them into custody, and blink back out? Dorian: True enough, no injuries that way. Morgan: Exactly. Worry about you first, them second. Dorian: *Gives her a squeeze, not saying anything* Morgan: Sorry, was that cold? Dorian: No. Just thinking. Glad you're gonna be okay. Morgan: *gives him a full hug* I'm more worried about you to be honest. You can heal, but... how much? You know? Dorian: .... not a lot. *Looks a little stricken* Morgan: *sighs* That's what I thought... *kisses his forehead* All right... so if you wanted to get us out, then yes. You could. I would go with you if that's what you wanted. Dorian: *Smiles* I'm not worried about me. Morgan: I know. Dorian: .... I wouldn't be able to help you if you got into something bad. Morgan: *smiles* I won't, okay? I'll turn down any field work if it makes you feel better. Dorian: Just anything dangerous... until this passes. I can't tell you what's going to happen, but I've gotten the feeling around base like something's coming up. Morgan: All right... *has a slight idea on what that is**quietly* Don't go to the red light if you can help it... That's all I can say. Dorian: *Frowns* Well I don't... but I know people who do... Morgan: Something's weird down there. Lots of bodies turning up, some dead and some alive (Mai.) Dorian: *He has a feeling he knows who's behind that* Ah. Yeah, I'll steer clear. Morgan: Good. *sighs* I'm really sorry... I know I keep more from you than you keep from me. Dorian: It's okay, I've told my fair share of lies. About time I got some back. *Kisses her neck again, resting there for a moment and sighing* I'm tired. Morgan: Sleepy tired or of all this cloak and dagger stuff? Dorian: Both. *Laughs quietly* Sorry, can we just stay like this? Morgan: Of course can... *smiles* I've got no where else to be... *Well, she does, but that's okay. She can slow down for once.* Dorian: *Snorts* That's a first. Morgan: I'm trying. *small laugh* I know I need to relax more. Dorian: You do. *Gives her a squeeze* But I need to spend more time with you. Morgan: We will. This summer, we definitely will. Dorian: I'll have to get that umbrella. |
