[An upbeat male voice comes on:]

Hey, it's Morgan! If you were expecting a girl, you picked the wrong picture. If not, then congratulations! But sorry too, because this means I've missed you. Leave a message!

Probably. But I just can't help myself! You're terribly attractive, you know.

[ Especially when she does cute things like groom him... darn it. She's not helping him leave!! ]

[bloodandblunder]

Not as much as you... so I'll wait, for now. I promise, the rest of my time will belong to you today.

[memlost]

I'll hold you to that.

[ He finally tucks the talisman in his pocket (he'll find a way to tie it to his belt later) and steps for the door. ]

I'd better go before I get caught up in you again. See you later, Noire! I should be back by evening.

[bloodandblunder]

All right! I'll be waiting.

[ SHE WILL. ]

[memlost]

[ GOOD BECAUSE



He's back. A little more drained and droopy-eyed, but still barging in!! Cuddlins ain't got no time for rest or knocking. ]

[bloodandblunder]

Welcome back-- [ and then Noire pauses, taking in his appearance. ]

... You were definitely busy, weren't you?

[memlost]

Mm-hm.

[ Thankfully for her, he at least took a moment to freshen up and change into something more clean and comfy. Except for the robe, of course, which may or may not defeat the purpose of changing in the first place with its faint tunnely musk still lingering.

Without further ado, he drapes himself on her with utmost finality. ]

Thanks for waiting.

[bloodandblunder]

I'd wait forever. [ this she says firmly, even as she wraps her arms around him. ] Not just because it's your birthday.

[memlost]

Noire...

[ Her quiet passion's always been part of her charm. He presses a kiss to her cheek before straightening. ]

Thank you for that too. And again for the talisman! I think the "good fortune" part of it really kicked in.

[bloodandblunder]

Eh... did something good happen?

spoilers for cal's thread i guess SHIELD YOUR EYES CAL??

[memlost]

I only found the BEST PRESENT EVER to be found! I wasn't sure what it was at first because it looked like a little hilt just sitting around, but when you press a little button on the side -- fwoosh! A blade comes out! I call it a surprise knife.

[ His dubbings are always the most dignified. ]

[bloodandblunder]

... That's very fitting. And what a good idea!

[memlost]

Thanks! You can never have enough secret pointy things.

[ Or secret boomy things. Or secret magic things. His robe is probably liable to spontaneously explode or stab him when he trips one day. ]

[bloodandblunder]

[ Hopefully not. ]

Safely stored, I'm sure...

[ RIGHT... ]

[memlost]

Safely enough!

[ HE'S GOT THIS, BABY. And then he takes her hand and gently tugs her along toward her room. Maybe he'll even make it this time!!

But first there's a loud and awkward clang as a paring knife drops from his inner robe to the floor.

...

...

...

And he'll just stop and pick it back up. ]

[bloodandblunder]

[ ... ]

Morgan...

[memlost]

I did come here in a rush, so I may have forgotten to remove a thing or two.

[ Tucking the knife away... shh you never saw it. ]

[bloodandblunder]

You didn't have to rush! If there's anything you still have to do-- [ things you have to secure... ]

[memlost]

Balderdash! There's nothing I have to do but be here with you. Here, I know-- [ he starts disrobing... ] I'll just put this to the side for now. Problem solved!

[bloodandblunder]

You can place it on the couch... I don't think anyone will move it.

[memlost]

[ Why not. He does that thing!! His robe can just chill and air out a little for now. Hopefully, no one will sit on it and receive a grievous butt injury. ]

Done! Now, where were we?

[bloodandblunder]

...

You were taking me to my room. [ she's trying not to smile, really. ]

[memlost]

Ah, yes. Let's go!

[ GONNA DO IT FOR SURE THIS TIME. He rushes right at her and bends to sweep her off her feet, picking her up at the back and knees. ]

[bloodandblunder]

[ Noire's subsequent yelp is more startled than dismayed, even though she's latching on fairly quickly to his neck. ]

I didn't mean you had to carry me! I can walk just fine!

[memlost]

Heh. [ A kiss on the cheek for her trouble, and he resumes the journey to her room. ] I know. You can walk with the best of them!

[ Hold as he turns sideways and crabwalks them through the door... romantic. ]
