dig under your skin

WHO: KENZI and GIL
WHERE: Kenzi and Piccolo's apartment.
WHEN: uhh the evening following this.
WARNINGS: angst, language, potential mention of Thunderhungerdome/violence.
SUMMARY: conflicted.
FORMAT: starting with quick


[ It's hardly within good manners to keep someone, especially a lady, waiting. Even if that lady is Kenzi who is often unladylike.

At the moment, however, Gil could use the company and perhaps the talk that's about to follow the phone call. He partially regrets dialing her in the first place, thinking he's troubling her with his own problems when she has enough on her mind, no matter how hard she tries to deny it and act laid back about everything. But he can't go to Nelson, despite what the older man had offered him. Nelson doesn't know about HABIT, about the stadium or what Gil's done. He doesn't think he can bear to have someone he likes suddenly look at him differently, even if Gil feels he deserves it.

He rubs his shoes on the stairs as he makes his way inside the building, conscious about tracking dirty snow and slush into Kenzi and Piccolo's home.

When he gets to the door, he hesitates. Finding out from the Deputy Mayor HABIT is no longer in this world is a great relief, but the distracting, mixture of feelings he felt hadn't gone since he had confirmed it.

He knocks quietly, shoulders hanging low now. ]

I know but I can't help it! Even back home with Bo I still do it. Although the things I've taken ended up being really useful.
wisecracked: (☠ I'm crazy crazy for feeling so blue)

Your wh-- Oh right the necklace. Yeah...I said I was sorry about that didn't I?
wisecracked: (☠ We're left to sit and wonder)

[personal profile] wisecracked 2013-03-29 08:19 am (UTC)(link)
I do here. I work for Xanatos. But I don't think I did at the time of the switch. [She can't really remember when she started working for Xanatos or when the switch happened.]
wisecracked: (☠ And I can't change this)

[personal profile] wisecracked 2013-03-29 08:31 am (UTC)(link)
Do you mean from this moment on? [Because she's already taken a lot of stuff. Mostly wallets.]
wisecracked: (☠ The dull-drum of the work week gets me)

[personal profile] wisecracked 2013-03-29 06:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll try? It's not something I can really promise not to do anymore.
wisecracked: (☠ False expectations)

[personal profile] wisecracked 2013-03-29 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Like I said before it's a compulsion. I don't really even think about it before I stuff something in my jacket or pocket or bra.
wisecracked: (☠ There's quiet in the streets now)

[personal profile] wisecracked 2013-03-29 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[Kenzi stares at him for a moment before laughing.]

Really?
wisecracked: (☠ For conversation flow)

[personal profile] wisecracked 2013-03-29 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[She rolls her eyes and lifts his chair, with him in it, into the air. Surely he'd have to drop his hands from his ears then?]
wisecracked: (☠ The most ridiculous repulsive games)

[personal profile] wisecracked 2013-03-29 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[That didn't go as planned. Kenzi carefully lowers the chair behind him and gets up to see if he's okay.]

...Sorry, dude.
wisecracked: (☠ Never coming home)

[personal profile] wisecracked 2013-03-29 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[She plops down beside him.]

Don't need any ice or anything?
wisecracked: (☠ For conversation flow)

[personal profile] wisecracked 2013-03-29 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[She reaches over, placing both hands on either side of his face so she can inspect him.]

Long as you didn't break it.
wisecracked: (☠ You make me smile)

[personal profile] wisecracked 2013-03-29 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's so tempting to fuck with him while she has him like she does; but after she's satisfied with the state of his face she releases him and leans back.]

Just had to make sure.
wisecracked: (☠ A breeze is just an unfamiliar sound)

Because you might fall on your face again?
