Okay, yeah, this sucks. I'll admit it, okay? I hate that nobody ever wants to... no, y'know what? Forget people not ever wanting to do anything, people don't even hardly know I'm there unless I say something. It blows and I hate it and I'm... lonely. Okay? I said it, are you all happy now?

[The scheming face is adorable.]

Hmmm we'd have to give the deities a cut.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[She's got a pretty good one herself.] Good thinking. Cut 'em in and they can't touch you.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure we've just turned our secret club into a Mafia ring. [A significant pause here] Which is awesome. I'll be the godmother. You can be my right hand man and even though he really wants to go home, we'll rope Jace and Cas into doing the heavy lifting. They'll be like contract workers.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Do I get to wear brass knuckles and tell people they don't know who they're dealing with, and send people after 'em if they don't cooperate?

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

Absolutely! [it's clear from the smile on her face she likes this plan.]

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

You might need to take up smoking cigars.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

[That makes Lucy wrinkle up her nose.] Maybe I could do a pipe. Cigars just have that smell. Pipes are nicer smelling.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

I think that'll work. As long as you sit in a leather chair while you smoke it.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

The swivel-y kind and I'll wear a really fierce pair of heels that look like they could double as a weapon and put my feet up on the desk then glare threateningly.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

That sounds perfect. If that were a movie, I'd see it like ten times. And then buy the DVD.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

And have a poster on your ceiling above your bed.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that too. I might draw the line at fan fiction.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

Oh come on! You know you want to write stories about our mafia! [She's laughing as she says it, pushing the cart along the road.]

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[He laughs.] We'll see. I might be able to be talked into it.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

I'll keep working on you. I'm stubborn that way.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

I'm starting to notice that, yeah.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

But it's a totally charming quality in me.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[She'll get a besotted smirk for that.]

'Course.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

You know all the ways to make me smile.

You know all the ways to make me smile. <small.[And he gets a big grin for that.]</small>

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

You seem to be kinda good at that, too.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

Psh. I'm totally a professional at this. I have a certificate and everything.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Oh, I should have realised I was dealing with a pro. I don't stand a chance, then.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

[Lucy isn't even sure at this point what they're talking about but she's not sure it matters.]

Fear not, young Skywalker, I'll show you the way. Later I'll get on your back and you can run around the obstacle course.

[Neil turns bright red, on account of occasionally he has the mentality of a thirteen-year-old boy, and his mind definitely just turned that into a euphemism, intentional or not.]

D'you think my midi-chlorian count is high enough for that?

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

[She ponders that a moment, lips pursed. She's also trying to follow where his mind went that made him blush so brightly. It doesn't take her long before she bursts out laughing. She actually was being literal but his way is better. She reaches over, running her fingertips over the curve of his neck.]

We may have to work up to it, make sure you can handle the exertion. [She bites her bottom lip then confesses] More of a surface Star Wars geek, what are midi-chlorian counts?
