Happy Hour, Cubefall Edition!

[ikissdhimbck]

It's been a pleasant enough month. After all the hullabaloo of the Shindig cleared out, Kate took some time to herself to relax. She's been around, in and out of the stables as usual, but mostly sticking to the libraries and her room.

She's pleased when she comes downstairs and gets a reminder of just what the date is.

The familiar screen pops up:

Hello! Welcome to Milliways. Today, Milliways marks the Cybertronian holiday of Cubefall, the anniversary of the day upon which the Allspark first landed on the rocky world that would become Cybertron. Would you like to sample some possible reconfigurations? (y/n)





Kate grins, taking some time to pore over the choices. The robot is a little unsettling; the horse is tempting. She was a fella two years back for the holiday, and she actually quite enjoyed the experience. Folk always like to compare what a woman can do to what a man can do. Getting some actual idea of what the differences really are...

She chews on her lip, and hits the series of buttons it takes to reconfigure her. Hell if she won't have some more fun with this.

When it's done, a napkin pops up on the Bar.

"Y'jus' like askin' me when I'm tall 'nough t'reach the shelves, don't you?" 'he' grumbles, not without amusement.

He leaps over the counter spryly, and quickly scribbles up a few specials.

"Oh, are ye now?" he asks, face lighting with a dangerous grin. "An' might I ask how you've prepared for me?"

To his credit, Finvarra does not simply lean up and kiss him as with last time, but that doesn't mean he isn't thinking about it.

[ikissdhimbck]

Ayup. Keeping a couple feet between them just so happens to be one of them ways he's better prepared this time around.

He smirks.

"Would y'believe I'm wearin' a chastity belt?"

[sidhe_king]

"Hmmm," Finvarra considers him for a long minute. "Nay, I don't think I would. Have to check an' be sure."

[ikissdhimbck]

"I'm also wearin' my guns. Them y'can plainly see."

It's all in good fun.

Most likely.

[sidhe_king]

"Aye, them I can see," he answers, no less gaily for Kate's warnings. "When'll ye catch on that I mean no harm t' your virtue, lad?"

After all, a little good fun is no harm.

Most likely.

[ikissdhimbck]

"I don't think my virtue's in any danger."

That ship has sailed, so to speak.

"But they say y'can't be too careful around Fae folk."

He adds a wink as an afterthought, showing it's all meant in good-humor.

[sidhe_king]

"Already? 'Tis only the first evening of the holiday, ye must have been busy." He offers a little smile at that, liking the banter with Kate in whatever form she comes in.

Or with, rather, given the constancy of reminder about her guns.

[ikissdhimbck]

He looks surprised.

"I wouldn't — in this body? I couldn't — "

How would he even go about, um, operating that thing? He can't even think about it without turning red, never you mind the idea of coupling with ... who? Another woman, or a man?

He coughs, roughly the shade of a tomato.

[sidhe_king]

"Oh, ye could," he says lightly, resting his chin on his hands with a playful grin. "And I'd imagine ye'd like it, to boot."

But the shade of Kate's face is getting mildly alarming, he supposes, at least to the rest of his clientele. He can't really bring himself to try soothing, yet.

[ikissdhimbck]

The blush won't be going away anytime soon, neither. Underneath the outlaw and the woman-cum-man who has been so changed by the last four years in this place, he's still a Victorian woman. And thinking about sex, let alone liking sex, is not something he's done much.

If ever.

He rubs the back of his neck nervously, looking anywhere but at Finvarra.

"Well, I — I don't plan t'find out."
