I don't think you're a thing all of the time.

...

Take my clothes off. Then come here.

[Comes closer first, and then reaches for her clothes??? The ones she's wearing???]

[ YANKS HER SCARF AROUND HIS NECK ]

No, these.

[Whiny dragon noises]

Why! You are not in need of them! Selfish!

Because I don't have enough extras to replace them if you destroy them.

[ starts removing them from him herself then, slowly. ]

Why is that my problem?

[There's some squirming, but Val is old hat by now with squirming, attention-wanting Emanators, so she can get her scarf and coat and one (1) sock off while Dan Feng throws a tantrum on the deck.]

... As... family, it is your responsibility to care for me. Is it not?

[ takes them and tosses them into the room.

Then she reaches up to take his face so she can pull him back in to her. ]

[His braincells are busy thinking about this, because 90% of him is allergic to openly caring, but he did see her as family, and huh what is she doing? He blinks down at her. His eyes glow a little. His tail swishes against the deck.]

What?

[ she pulls him in, and wraps her arms around his shoulders so she can draw him back into a gentle hug. ]

[He freezes, but then sinks into the hug, wrapping his arms around her waist in turn.]

Don’t leave.

... Do you really want me here, with the others?

[ relaxes against him, face buried into his shoulder, fighting off the rising nausea from his stupid fucking chloroform. ]

Ask if they're okay with it. And don't drug me again.

Stop being stupid, why would I bring you here with your entire wardrobe.

[Perhaps all of her clothes are in a pile somewhere… Maybe a scavenger hunt of them… sorry Val!! He doesn’t say yes to anything, but starts stroking her hair instead.]

[ goddamnit dude ]

... The issue is-- if they do not want me here... I cannot force them to tolerate my presence. It's a matter of my comfort as much as theirs.

Ask them, Dan Feng. Please.

You are a confusing creature. But I will do you this favor just once.

[He turns his head to drop a kiss in her hair.] If you worry this much your face will get stuck that way.

[ she makes a small noise, fingers curling in his hair. ]

... mm. Probably.

Do not fear. Nobody in this house can hate you as much as I do.

[ she goes very still.

And then pulls back to punch him in the stomach as hard as she can, face flushed with indignant embarrassment. ]

[That at least gets a choked noise from him - very good, Valencia - but then he laughs (expected) and tries to kiss her (also expected).]

[ n. Immediately covers his mouth. ]

-- You don't get to say that and then kiss me!

But why not? I'll let you kiss me too!

I'm not going to kiss someone who hates me.

[ her voice wobbles a little. ]

I do not hate you all the time. I'm sure it's the same for you.

I have not hated you in a long time, Dan Feng. You have frightened me, and made me angry, but that is not hate.

...

[He squints at her.]

Are you just saying this to make me feel better?
