(("More Brandy!" *along with an imperious drunken gesture*.. happens during a pie fight. lol))
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 1:54:15 AM)
*is out in the forge, in his sensible carpenter jeans and a wifebeater, full gloves up his arms, working on folding and refolding a large piece of rebar for practice*
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 1:54:47 AM)
::it was getting late, and Lukas had been there a few hours, hammering away. Kaia was leaving him to his work, without supervision, though she went into her house, not going far. She moved into the workshop, her hair was in two casual braids, going down her shoulders, a tank top, and PJ pants with little cherries on them, tied low at her hips. She looked amused about something, eyeing her iPhone and tapping at it with her thumb, balancing a plate of food in her other hand::
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 1:59:45 AM)
*there is a large mug of water nearby, no pile of water bottles to indicate how many times it had been filled from the tap, but the wifebeater is soaked through, as is the navy bandanna holding the sweat out of his eyes, he's slowly getting more consistent in his strikes and timing..finding his own rhythm*
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 2:02:15 AM)
::she paused near him, before she looked to his work and then him, studying the work, before she looked him over:: Break time... ::said loudly enough to have been heard over the pounding::
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 2:07:18 AM)
*and in her examination of him..it's suddenly rather clear..he's a smidge broader than he should be. Perhaps even a couple inches taller as he straightens from his task at her call, and the ears are slightly pointed..outlined against the navy cloth of the bandana. Same pair of carpenter jeans is a little less..baggy than she remembers. A faintly more feral Lukas looks over and gives a half-smile* Hey Kaia..you brought food.. *chuckling. His voice is rougher in Glabro as well, but his mannerisms exactly the same* Thanks.. *he puts the hammer down*
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 2:11:08 AM)
::it's a moment before she realizes she's staring.... and she flushes.... damn... it's hot in here, yes? She reacts a moment later, smiling belatedly:: Hm? Oh.... yes. Food.... and this. I picked a few up at the store. You need it. ::putting down a Muscle Milk rebuilding protein shake as well, and a very large sandwich, her eyes going over him again, trying to do it when he's not looking at her::
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 2:16:29 AM)
*as she's provided food to distract him, that much is easy* Huh..never tried one of those.. *picking the shake up to read the label, then noticing his gloves are still on. He reaches over and puts the rebar back into the fire, pulling the shoulder length gloves (now much more snug) off his arms and hands to drape over the anvil before lifting the milk again* Haha.. yeah, I probably do need something like that.. How much are they? *looking back to Kaia then*
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 2:19:11 AM)
::she shakes her head, dismissing the repayment:: On sale.... ::letting him read and eat, as she openly stared, sitting on top of her table, bare feet tucked beneath her. She quickly averted her eyes to her iPhone, smirking at something and tapping back on it:: I was also looking up diets for you... if you're looking to add strength ... and with all the crap you're doing now... working out with Tristan and Hans... and this... ::gesturing to her forge:: I think you might want to switch.
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 2:21:43 AM)
And archery, and running, and Bastian's offered to help me with unarmed combat.. Shadow dragged me into the woods for a game of tag today. *taking the shake and plate to a bench to sit down and devour it all in front of her, his teeth are a wee bit pointy too now*
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 2:27:01 AM)
I am paying you back for that shake you know.. one way, or the other. Besides.. I want to know how much they are so I can figure them into the ol' budget while I'm at it. Not going to let you just provide them endlessly. *shaking his head as he finishes off the sandwich and drains the last of said shake, examining the carton again* Says they make chocolate. Huh. Thought that was kid stuff..
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 2:29:19 AM)
::she nods, smiling a bit, finally setting her phone down, and she watched him now, letting him eat in peace, as she studied him... her fingers were itching now. She got up abruptly and she moved to a desk, getting a sketchbook and a pencil, and moving back to her spot, as she began to sketch, seemingly casually for now:: Pfft... whatever. I have strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate in the fridge for you. Cheaper to buy a variety case than individually. More protein... you need more lean protein. Calcium too... you might want to think about a men's vitamin or something.
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 2:29:40 AM)
::she flicks a brow, amused:: Pay me back, one way or another? ::she grins:: Is that a threat?
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 2:30:34 AM)
Ehh..Only if you consider leaving cash around your house to be threatening. *lifting a brow and looking over at her* Lean protein? What's that, fish?
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 2:31:47 AM)
Like I won't know who it's from, and return it. ::she rolls her eyes:: Yes, chicken and fish.... lean pork. Lean cuts of meat. Vegetables, fruits.... I printed out a list for you.. and an example of the diets I found... and what the results might be. If you want....
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 2:33:55 AM)
Men's vitamins? *blinks once at the suggestion he go on a diet of some sort* Diet? Results.. you a personal trainer too? *notes the sketchbook* What're you drawing?
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 2:39:50 AM)
::she rolls eyes:: No, you can talk to the health nut Bastian for that. You've just been exerting a lot of activity lately. I figured it might be good for you to take your vitamins. So you don't get hurt. I know I pulled a -lot- of muscles when I first began this. And there were a lot of times I hurt my back, arms, or shoulders and neck doing this. ::she shrugs a bit, eyes flicking between him and her sketchbook.... really... casually:: Just doodling... my fingers get restless... So...... when did you tell Thom he could come over whenever... without calling?
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 2:42:21 AM)
Kaia.. I could just about cut my own leg off and be up and walking in a minute or ..WHAT?!
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 2:42:41 AM)
Yeah... was just wondering when that policy changed.
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 2:42:52 AM)
::sketchsketchsketch::
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 2:43:10 AM)
It hasn't. *expression darkening like a gathering storm* Who said it has?
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 2:43:55 AM)
Thom and I were having an interesting coversation via txt tonight. He's.. fine with the baby thing now. Apparently. And he said that you told him he could come over without calling... I told him I'd ask you. I assumed you'd have told me.
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 2:45:26 AM)
Damn straight I would have. NO. *black gaze flashing* The -hell- I said that. Anyone coming to your door aught to have the common fucking courtesy to call ahead or arrange it somehow. Christ, that's just Decent.
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 2:50:39 AM)
::she nods:: I'll remind him that that hasn't changed. We... talked a bit more. He was discussing the whole... baby thing. Again. I told him that if I took a mate, that some other kin would have to take on responsibility for the baby, as I would have other responsibilities. He asked why I didn't tell him sooner... that I'd make sure the baby was with another family if I mated. He.... was suddenly fine with it, and then was upset because I hadn't told him that sooner... but... we didn't discuss that until I spoke with you... then... you saw him first, and talked to him before we did. And... yeah. He's upset. He thinks it cost him his chance with Relentless because of it. He's upset about that, but he calmed back down again... we were just talking again.
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 2:52:06 AM)
He thought I was just.... going to wait around for 3 years before having sex... or a relationship.... I'm not a saint.
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 2:53:23 AM)
I.. don't think he'll mesh with Relentless, but that's just me. He's a little trigger happy, and if a full moon can say that of a Theurge, it's a sorry state of affairs. *snorts and shakes his head at the idea of Kaia going celibate for 3 years* Somehow.. I don't see that as realistic at all.
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 2:54:45 AM)
::she nods:: I didn't think that would be a good match either, but I wasn't going to tell him that. ::she shakes her head:: He -does- have a temper. That's for sure. ::she snorts:: Are you kidding me..?? It's been 5 months now.... I'm getting mildly desperate, it's sad.
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 2:58:53 AM)
*winces at that* Damn girl, throw some boy into a dark corner and do what you need to stay sane. Or.. are you worried that Thom and Kurt would see it as a btrayal?
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:00:03 AM)
I don't think a dark corner would suffice... no matter how prettily Keening offered... ::said dryly:: And... I -know- Thom and Kurt would see it as a betrayal. I wasn't worried about it for the first couple of months I was here... I had enough going on I didn't notice.... you know.. as much.
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:00:35 AM)
But things are calming down, and I can breathe a bit, and.... now... I'm noticing.
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:02:53 AM)
Ahh. Well, shit. Those two are your Gordian knot, good luck, little sister. *shaking his head and hey look! Rebar.. he works to get the gloves back on up over his arms and pulls the folded steel from the heat to take it back to the anvil*
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:04:52 AM)
::she makes a face:: Gee... thanks. ::she wrinkles her nose:: Part of me is just... thinking of disappearing from a club with a guy and just.... not discussing it. Kurt and Thom -both-, want to just... throw me down and do me silly. I'm.... not so sure that either one is a good option for that right now.
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:06:17 AM)
::Kaia stretched out, lying down on her stomach, one elbow propping her up, the other was drawing still, eyes just casually going between the figure at the forge and her drawing, the glare on the paper stopping him from seeing what she was drawing::
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:07:01 AM)
You know, if you go find yourself a bit of quiet stress-relief..way the hell away from the sept.. You don't need to tell me about it either. *chuckling as he works, he speaks in the breaks between strikes, sparks flying in bursts*
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:10:18 AM)
::she laughs:: I don't have anyone in mind at the sept .... I'd do.......... ::she trails off, shaking her head as she continued to draw:: I know.. that I have that option. I've known it the entire time. But... I'm not desperate.
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:11:56 AM)
You just said you were. *chuckles* Mildly desperate.
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:12:27 AM)
Trust me, we men have sonar hearing for that phrase. *shaking his head and continuing to work, stubbornly not looking back at her*
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:13:09 AM)
Mildly... not -really-. ::she grins:: If I was that desperate, you'd be here alone the entire night and have to figure out how to put the forge to bed tonight....
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:13:52 AM)
Ehh.. I managed it before.
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:14:32 AM)
When work called you and Kurt was here with me, promising to make sure I didn't burn the place down. He left about ten minutes after you did. I cleaned up and closed down.
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:16:13 AM)
::taking his refusal to look back, quite pleased as she starts to stare again, drawing the lines a little more cleanly, bending long legs at the knees and kicking lightly, braids pooled onto the table beneath her::
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:16:37 AM)
Mmm, you did. ::she grins:: Mmmm, clubs are open still.... ::said teasingly::
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:19:21 AM)
Nothing to keep you here. *chuckling* Can't say that my boring company is holding you back. And I really can't keep at this for more than another half hour or so. Or I'll blackout, face down on the anvil.
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:20:35 AM)
Nah... I'll move your face, so it doesn't get squished. I can do that for you. It's okay... I'm amused for now. ::said nonchalantly, casually, and with mild distracted tones as her fingers fly across the page::
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:22:25 AM)
You're a peach, little sister. *folding the metal over again and starting to work it back out into a rectangle, strikes increasing in intensity as he has to smush it together while the stuff's still pliable*
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:25:26 AM)
((I am..falling asleep despite myself. >_<))
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:25:28 AM)
Mmmm, I'm sure you mean that. ::shaking her head a bit, a sly smile on her lips, as she works, eyes roaming again, before then starting on his arms::
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:25:30 AM)
(lol)
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:26:00 AM)
*arms are hidden in big leather gloves!*
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:26:15 AM)
(like she can't see past that..... ha!)
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:26:27 AM)
(or make that up in her mind's eye)
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:26:36 AM)
((.. does this drawing have clothes??!))
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:26:46 AM)
(it has pants?)
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:27:24 AM)
(tight..... pants?)
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:29:01 AM)
((*facepalm* Oh good..this is what Thom and Kurt need to see.))
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:29:12 AM)
(why yes.... yes it is)
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:29:40 AM)
(you missed the "private" part of "private sketchbook")
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:30:12 AM)
((This isn't the private one! You just picked up a book at the forge!))
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:31:43 AM)
(this page will go conspicuously missing.)
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:31:59 AM)
*setting the steel aside finally, happy with the shape and content to let it wait for him until tomorrow, he puts it in the hot water to cool it gradually, steam gushing around the studio for a moment*
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:33:26 AM)
::Kaia distractedly waves a hand over the steam around her drawing, biting her lower lip, as she lets her eyes be distracted::
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:34:15 AM)
*then, as if Kaia weren't there, he goes about the tasks of cleaning up the forge, sorting the scrap out back into the bins and putting spare rebar in it's place. He sweeps up, making sure any falling hazards or potential fire fuel is disposed of, then takes all the tools he'd used back to their places. He's taking his time about it, or he's exhausted, hard to tell*
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:36:32 AM)
::Kaia continues to work, hovering over her work, her fingers moving quickly, as she starts to finish up her sketch for now, eyes flicking to him as necessary now, smoothing out the lines with a fingertip, shading::
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:40:00 AM)
::speaking quietly, eyes on her page:: If you are too tired to stay home... you can stay here... in the workshop... or the guest bedroom, if you don't want to sleep out here... ::she shrugs:: You look freaking tired...
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:40:41 AM)
No, thank you.. I can make it home. *pausing to drain the rest of his giant mug of water, he tucks his own scant tools into the leather satchel, along with the mug, and crouches down under the forge fire to turn off the gas and close the valves. Making sure it's extinguished before he closes up the grate and cover doors, and peels the gloves off to put them in the bag too. Setting the bag down on an empty bench, he looks around the forge to be sure he hasn't missed anything*
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:42:51 AM)
*reaching to rub at the stubble on his cheek idly..his hand comes away greyish from the dirt. And he detours to clean his hands and face at the tap*
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:43:19 AM)
::she nods, and very neatly tears the paper from the sketchbook, folding it up, and putting it back, climbing off the table as she pads towards the door to lock up:: Don't forget to shift back.
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:46:53 AM)
*drying off and putting the satchel on his shoulder before she offers her advice* Yeah..Yeah.. that part, I'm not looking forward to. *Though even as he starts walking after her to the exit, his bones are already cracking and crunching as his skin seems to pull him back down into his normal size. He slows down significantly as the strength runs out of him and his satchel seems to get far heavier*
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:48:04 AM)
Thanks for letting me borrow the fire. *passing her as she locks up, getting out of her way*
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:49:31 AM)
::she shakes her head:: You can park in the driveway next time, get your bag in the truck prior to shifting.... ::she locks up carefully, a final sweep of her eyes, as she breathes out, and looks to him, nodding:: Of course. Anytime. I'm half-tempted to get you a key... in case I'm not around and you need to bang around. ::she eyes him a little:: Lukas... are you -sure- you can make it home?
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:50:08 AM)
::she frowns, noting he seems -really- worn down::
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:51:58 AM)
*chuckles a bit at her concern* I'll be fine after I get some sleep. I can sleep in tomorrow..no rounds, and Tristan hasn't reserved my morning. Just got a bit carried away today. *managing a half-smile* Take care, Aetling. *adjusting the bag on his shoulder and walking through the side-yard to get to his truck out front*
Kaia Skaare (Oct 2, 2010 3:54:03 AM)
::Kaia nods, heading back into the house, opening her paper once in and locking the door, beginning to close windows and shades, per her usual night time ritual, as she began to ponder, and got out a new sketchbook from her supply... setting it on the table for the morning and grabbing her phone, shooting off a few txts as she heads to the bedroom after locking up::
Lukas Vangelis (Oct 2, 2010 3:54:24 AM)
((I'm falling down stupid tired. lol *hugs* Night, glad we got to be goofy IC for a bit. *snicker*))
