[ACRO] Outside VIII: We cater birthday parties

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 01:07 AM (ISO 8601)

[Ashna's World]

Which means it'll probably be close to the next morning before the curtain rises again, with Brendan smiling happily and hugging Ashna close, perhaps.

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 01:13 AM (ISO 8601)

[Ashna's House]

Close to it. And yes, I think she'll still be in a hug with Brendan, very happy.

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 01:22 AM (ISO 8601)

She'll get a kiss on the cheek then, too. You're amazing, love, Brendan whispers, pleasantly tired and happy.

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 01:27 AM (ISO 8601)

And he should get a kiss on his neck. Mmm, not so much as you are. Ashna answers. So was this room as charming as the rest?

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 01:35 AM (ISO 8601)

Brendan takes a moment, relaxing gently against her, before answering with a smile in his voice. I think it was. Definitly. I guess it's true when they say there's no place like home.

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 01:39 AM (ISO 8601)

Ashna smiles in her expression as well, glad to be near him. I think it's more when they say that home is where your heart is. With you.

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 01:58 AM (ISO 8601)

Brendan blushes deeply, and gives her a soft kiss. [size=1]And mine, with you...
He closes his eyes and gently rests his head on her shoulder, humming softly as tiredness catches up with him.

With this quantity of sugar, diabetes is a risk...
...BR really should hit the sack now, though, seeing as it's 3am.

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 02:02 AM (ISO 8601)

And yes, it is. Sighing probably doesn't help, does it?

Ashna returns the kiss and lays there holding him, resting. Since while it isn't 3:00 here, it's still late. Goodnight BR.

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 07:09 PM (ISO 8601)

It'll be late the next morning before Brendan starts to wake again. After all, he didn't get to sleep most of the night...

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 07:20 PM (ISO 8601)

Understandable. Ashna is just now waking up, and noting that it's later than she would have liked.

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 07:25 PM (ISO 8601)

Brendan pretends to still be asleep, and watches her with a small smile.

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 07:29 PM (ISO 8601)

Ashna doesn't notice that he's awake yet. She gives him a very soft kiss, and gets up, letting him sleep a while more. She stretches and goes to dress, in mostly brown clothes now.

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 07:32 PM (ISO 8601)

Brendan fights the temptation to kiss back, and watches as Ashna dresses, smiling more. Which might give him away...

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 07:39 PM (ISO 8601)

Hey. Sleeping people don't move that often. Ashna winks at him, guessing. After all, if he really is asleep, he can't see.
Then she bends down to pick up a pair of boots and goes to leave the room.

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 07:49 PM (ISO 8601)

Brendan chuckles softly, and blows a kiss in her direction as she leaves, then rolls out of bed to get cleaned up and dressed, himself.

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 07:51 PM (ISO 8601)

After getting dressed and cleaned all the way, Ashna goes to cook breakfast. Quickly, so they can leave. Toast and bacon, probably.

((Gone for a while. Goodnight if you're gone by the time I'm back.))

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 07:59 PM (ISO 8601)

((*waves*))

Brendan smiles happily as he comes out and smells breakfast cooking. Smells good, love.

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 09:16 PM (ISO 8601)

Thanks. We'll have to eat quickly to get to the station. Assuming timescales match between our worlds. She offers him a slice of toast.

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 09:26 PM (ISO 8601)

And assuming the trains run on time? Brendan winks, accepting the toast with a smile, and smearing plenty of butter on it.

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 09:27 PM (ISO 8601)

Assuming, yes. They're fairly reliable. She smiles and eats a plain, lightly toasted slice.

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 09:36 PM (ISO 8601)

Brendan grabs a strip of bacon and nibbles at it. Do they use steam here, or something else?

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 09:38 PM (ISO 8601)

Something else. Steam's only for heavily armored machines sent into wild magic zones. You'll see when we get there.
She takes a few pieces of bacon, and offers Brendan the rest of the plate.

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 09:47 PM (ISO 8601)

Sounds like fun. Brendan smiles broadly. In the old times, dad said some places had magic trains; in my time, we'd just recently switched from steam to internal combustion. He accepts the plate with a smile.

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 09:50 PM (ISO 8601)

It is. Not as much fun as flying, but it's rare to have a ship I can use. The fires flare up at the mention of airships. Just a little.
What is that like?

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 09:55 PM (ISO 8601)

Hm? Oh, well, most people don't like it. The railroads love it, but it lacks that...charm, you know? A steam engine is almost like something alive.

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 09:58 PM (ISO 8601)

I think I see. That's what our trains are like. Kind of sad.
Anyway, we should get going soon. Ready?

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 10:03 PM (ISO 8601)

Yeah, it is. Brendan finishes the last piece of bacon. And I'm ready when you are, love.

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 10:05 PM (ISO 8601)

Alright. Let's go.
She stands up and puts on a coat.
Oh, and once we get on the train, my name is Lily Galesa and I'm a diplomat from Ibera. Oh, and you'll need a cover story too. It'll make things easier.

**The Bushranger** · 2009-10-11, 10:15 PM (ISO 8601)

Brendan looks for a coat for himself...
Hm. Well, how about I'm Aiden Brown, and your bodyguard?

**Recaiden** · 2009-10-11, 10:21 PM (ISO 8601)

That sounds good. She hands him a light gray coat and heads outside.
