The Door opens and Nathan walks in, grinning as he sees the place.

"About time..."

He settles down at a booth and orders a beer and a plate os spaghetti before glancing around, letting his mind trip around thre room for familiar voices.

Cable is back and glad to be in Milliways

Harold pokes him.

"You shiny."

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

He grins at thre little one.

"And you are tiny."

He pokes back, with his mind, a gentle poke.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_purple_crayon/]

Harold giggleglees.

"You funny!!"

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

he grins and pokes again, gently.

"Am I? Well, you are giggly!"

It is said in a grinning tone.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_purple_crayon/]

Well this causes much more gigglesqueeing, which apparently takes over his capability for thinking of what else Cable is.

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

He grins and pokes gently and watches the lad.

"What is your name? I'm Nathan."

[http://users.livejournal.com/_purple_crayon/]

"I Harold," he says seriously.

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

"And I," he gestures to himself, " am Nathan."

he grins ansd sticks out a hand.

"Nice to meet you, Harold!"

[http://users.livejournal.com/_purple_crayon/]

"Hi, Nafwin!"

Harold stares at the hand. Hmm. Must be there for a reason..
He pokes it.

Snowball, Harold's ever present fuzzy companion, licks it.

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

Nathan grins and gently takes Harold's hand and shakes it, in a slightly exagerated fashion.

"Grownups greet each other this way sometimes."

he grins down at Snowball.

"Hello there."

[http://users.livejournal.com/_purple_crayon/]

Harold frown.
"Dat silly."

He turns around and tries, somewhat comically, to shake Snowball's paw.
He ends up with a paw on top of his head.

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

He laughs and gently removes the paw.

"You are a cute little one."

[http://users.livejournal.com/_purple_crayon/]

"T'ank?"

He fiddles with his crayon.

"Like girraf?"
Soon there's one that is a little bit shorter than Harold sniffing Cable.

And there is Alice, laying up in the rafters, watching Nathan. She watches him before allowing her mind to brush lightly against his.

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

And he smiles as he feels that brush.

::Hello, beautiful.::

His smile is gentle as he turns it upwards, physically and mentally.

[sorrowfulmisery.livejournal.com]

::Hello yourself, handsome::

She gives him a smile when he looks up towards where she's at.

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

::HOw are you, oh spirited warrior?::

There is no sarcasm in his voice, just yet another name for her, among others.

[sorrowfulmisery.livejournal.com]

::You know I wonder how many more nicknames you can come up with::

There's a teasing tone to her voice before she jumps down from the rafters, landing on her feet next to his table.

::And I'm doing good.::

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

His eyes light up at actually seeing her and a hand is extended to her, even as his eyes rake over her, taking in, once more, her beauty. He swivels towards her and grins.

"You are beautiful."

[sorrowfulmisery.livejournal.com]

She takes his hand and sits down in his lap leaning back against him.

"So I've been told."

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

His arms wrasp around her, warm skin touching her belly.

"MMM, you feel nice too."

::What have you been up to?::

[sorrowfulmisery.livejournal.com]

"You always say that."

She thinks about something for a moment before tilting her head slightly.

::So have we figured out what we are yet Nathan? That way neither of us get in trouble for teasing someone that isn't one another.::

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

he smiles faintly.

::I dont think we have ever truly talked about it enough...::

he ponders this.

::I know we are friends. I have trusted only my sister with the depths that I have trusted you with and not even her with all that you now know. Beyond that? Lovers... and people who care, a lot, about each other?::

he looks at her and something in him tugs, hard. He swallows.

::I dont know if love is apprropriate... or if the terms girlfriend or boyfriend are right... I know I care a lot about you... and like being with you... and you make me feel safe.::

[sorrowfulmisery.livejournal.com]

::That's because we haven't ever truly talked about it, Nathan.::

She reaches up and runs fingers through his hair before just laying her head on his shoulder.

::I care about you a lot too. And you've done things no one else would be crazy enough to do. Taught me things I probably never would've even bothered allowing myself to learn. And big guy like yourself, yeah, you make this girl feel safe too. Even if she doesn't truly need the safety.::

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

He hugs her close and listens. He smiles at that last.

::I like that... that we can feel safe around one another, comfortable, maybe. ::

he thinks about it.

::I enjoy teaching you and learning from you. And I enjoy seeing you... it makes me feel like this.::

He shows her the surge of warmth that he gets at sight or'sound' of her.

::I like feeling this way.::
