He did. It signifies the day and time of the first test and the expectancy. A was his first test set. [She'd been the only one who lived through it and she'd been five at the time.
A shiver makes it way down her neck and spine as his fingers brushed at the sensitive skin behind her ear.] I don't think anyone would believe I was an android. Maybe here.
[Enis's heart begins to beat a little faster as she looks up at Rhys. Their faces were so close and she wonders why she hesitates. She'd never hesitated before. Why Rhys? What is it about him?]
I see...So, you've had that for a long time, huh? [He's rather horrified that someone would tattoo a five-year-old, but that's not the worst of Enis's father's sins.
And that shiver pulls his mind back to the present.]
Y'know, we don't have to go to the park. I-if you don't wanna. We could stay in. Totally up to you.

Oh?
[Her lips part but it takes her another moment of silence for her to speak.] You want to stay in? We can. I- [A nervous sensation fluttered in her chest.]
What should we do?
[Enis knows that their standing close, she can feel the heat of his skin and breath hovering nearby.]
[She watches his mouth move but he doesn't say what she's expecting. He'd kissed her once before and all this flirting... maybe he isn't interested? Enis isn't sure but she feels almost disappointed.]
I've got a few movies saved from back home. I could probably get one to play on the screen set in the wall, and we could pop some popcorn. I'll even turn the lights off if you wanna pretend we're just a couple of awkward teenagers hiding in the back of a movie theater~
[Screw it. He leans in and places a quick peck to the tip of her nose.]
[He smiles, squeezing her hand gently as he tugs her towards the kitchen. While they walk, he activates his EchoEye and starts looking through his movie collection.]
Date/Time: 9/20/19 02:47 am (UTC)Posted by:blindpuppet
[Enis hoovers nearby as Rhys sets up the movie and gets the popcorn. This wasn't exactly how she'd thought any of this would go but it was nice. She'd get to hang out with Rhys with his shirt off, though she was having trouble keeping her eyes off him.]
Sounds like fun.
Is there anything I should be doing?
[That isn't just standing though she makes a fairly pretty statue.]
I dunno. The popcorn is almost done, so if you want, you can go get comfortable on the couch.
[He takes the popcorn out when it's finished and dumps it into a large bowl. He then follows Enis to the couch, setting the bowl on the small coffee table.]
[Enis walks over to the couch and begins to take off her boots and socks. She doesn't think that Rhys cares if she keeps her shoes on but if they're staying here she's going to make herself comfortable.
She shrugs off her dark leather jacket showing off the tank top she wore beneath. Enis doesn't have a lot of clothes and what she does have is worn and now stained by oil and other things from work...] Is this something you do a lot?
[She takes a seat on the couch and curls her legs up so that she's comfortably settled on the cushions. Enis has a very unique way of sitting on couches though she doesn't realize it. She treats a couch like a bed, having had a bed that she used as a couch for a great deal of her life.]
I like popcorn but only if it's as bad for me as possible. [Lots of butter and salt.] I'm not sure why that is.
[It's one of those things that Enis hasn't put a lot of thought into but she's realized her tastes lend themselves towards anything that's savory and not good for her.]
[Rhys sits so that he can slip his flesh arm over the back of the couch around Enis, a bold move in his eyes. Of course, he's got the butteriest popcorn available, and he's added the perfect amount of salt.]
Do you mean watch movies in general, or cuddle up with a cutie to watch them~? [He winks at her.] Because the last time I did the latter, I was still living on a space station. Well, longer than that, really. It's been a couple of years.
[Effortlessly, he starts the movie, lighting up the tv screen with a soaring shot of a desert scene.]
Date/Time: 9/24/19 02:08 am (UTC)Posted by:blindpuppet
[Enis slides up next to his side under the pretense of being near the popcorn.
Sitting next to him is warm in a pleasant way that she's still getting used to. Being near him like this, cuddling up and watching a movie, sans shirt... It feels nice.]
But you like it? [She asks with a little teasing smile.] Watching movies with a cute girl?
We'll have to do this more. Assuming our boss gives us time off.
It's one of my favorite pastimes~ I'm sure you'd be able to sweet-talk the boss into giving us a little more free time.
[He slips his arm lower, so that it's resting around her shoulders. She seems so fragile cuddled next to him, but he knows better, and unless he really wants things to get awkward, he's gonna have to get his mind back on the movie.]
You've really never done this before? Just cuddled up with someone and taken in a movie?
[Enis snorts through her nose in an attempt to hold back a short clipped laugh. It's not a very cute noise despite coming from such a tiny cute nose.] We'll have to ask him.
[She glances over at Rhys and then back to the movie. She's never snuggled on the couch with someone. She's watched only one movie all the way through and Rhys had been there for that too. There is a lot that she's never done.]
No.
[She doesn't look over at him.]
I lived in a room and my father isn't the snuggling sort. No one else was allowed in. I had to study, rest and keep myself physically healthy.
[Enis tenses and feels suddenly awkward. She isn't good at this kind of stuff and isn't sure what to say or what it even means. The internet isn't clear about personal relationships...]
I- haven't ever dated before.
[She keeps watching the movie, that nervous uncertainty twisting in her stomach.]
I don't know what stakes are involved or what is really involved in dating.
R-right...Well, dating is kinda like being friends? Except more intimate. Sometimes, you go out on fun dates, like to a fancy restaurant or an amusement park. Other times, you stay in and watch movies...like we're doing right now~ You share more and more about yourself with the person you're dating, and after a little time, they're the person you end up trusting the most.
[Of course, thinking about this makes him think about Vaughn. Not that they'd been physically intimate, of course. But his friendship with Vaughn was something he referenced to gauge his dating life.]
Not that it'll replace other relationships you have. Like, I've got a best bro back home. I've known him since elementary school. We grew up together. But we're just friends, like, I wouldn't wanna marry him or something.
[Not that he's thinking of marrying Enis...maybe one day, in another universe...]
The stakes are...well, ruining a good friendship by making it physical. [He sighs.] I really like working with you, and I like hanging out, but I also maybe kinda really wanna kiss you. I don't want things to get awkward, though...

It won't get awkward.
[Enis pushes herself forward and turns to look at Rhys.
She had listened to his explanation and while she doesn't fully understand what it entails, she thinks she knows what he means. To be close, trusting someone. It's never something she's ever done before. Even here in the sphere's, Enis had perhaps two friends and one of them is Rhys. There were others who knew bits and pieces about her but only by happenstance, it'd never been intentional.
Enis wonders if she's capable of that type of intimacy and then quickly decides that she doesn't care.
She leans forward and gently presses her lips to his in a slow sweet kiss. Her palm rests lightly against his chest, feeling the rhythm of his heartbeat as well as the warmth of his bare skin against her palm.
She likes working with him and doesn't want to risk what they have but she also really wants to kiss him and after making up her mind on the matter, she stops thinking about all the what-if's and instead focuses on how wonderful his mouth feels pressed against hers.]
[Rhys eyes her as she turns to face him, slowly turning so that it's easier to face her. His heart's thudding in his chest and he hopes she can't hear it. He's about to say something when she leans in and presses their lips together.
After a moment of shock, he kisses back, his hands automatically going to her hips to pull her closer. As cliche as it may sound, it's better than he imagined. Of course, he'd imagined himself making the first move and her rejecting him, so it wasn't hard to beat. But this...this was perfect.]
[Enis slides closer and is nearly sitting on his lap when she comes to a comfortable stop. She rests one hand on his shoulder while the other continues to drag her nails along his scalp and down his neck.
The kiss slowly deepens, her lips parting to inhale the intoxicating scent of his breath. She can feel his pulse quicken and match her own and all too soon she feels their kiss come to its natural end.
Enis stays close, their noses barely touching as her eyes flick up to meet his.] See. Not awkward.
[As the kiss deepens, Rhys slides one hand up Enis's back, eager to have her as close as possible. He barely catches a brief brush of her tongue with his before the kiss ends.]
N-no, that's not awkward...It felt really good.
[Slowly, he leans in to kiss her, giving her a chance to pull away before their lips connect.]
Date/Time: 10/12/19 01:15 am (UTC)Posted by:blindpuppet
[This time Enis doesn't stop. She leans into the kiss and lets the soft warmth of his mouth encompass her own. Fire blossoms in her chest and dances across her skin, trailed behind the brush of his hand up the lovely curve of her back.
She sighed against his kiss and felt a shiver of excitement shoot down to the base of her spin.
Enis breaks their kiss long enough to pull her legs across Rhys's lap so that she was straddling him. Her hips press down against him, her jeans tightening across her lower abdomen as her tongue dragged against his.
She isn't going to remember anything about this movie...]

no subject
We could...watch a movie? Or play a game? Whatever you want, really. I can grab a shirt and we can head back out like we originally planned, too.
[Why is he being such a coward about this? He only needs to lean in a few inches and their lips would be pressed together.]
no subject
You don't have to put a shirt on.
[That isn't what she meant to say.]
We can do any of that, what do you have here?

no subject
Is that a thing people do?
Apparently, the answer to that is yes.]
Oh.
I don't think I've ever been an awkward teenager in a movie theater before so maybe you can walk me through it.
[She slides her hand in his and gently laces their fingers together.]
Like this maybe?
no subject
[He smiles, squeezing her hand gently as he tugs her towards the kitchen. While they walk, he activates his EchoEye and starts looking through his movie collection.]
What do you like? Action? Horror? Rom-Coms?
no subject
I don't know. You've seen all the movies I've ever seen.
[Which is the one movie that they had barely watched at the park.]
no subject
[While he sets the video connection up, he lets go of Enis's hand to get the popcorn bag open and in the little microwave.]
I think you'll like this one. It's based on a game called Bunkers and Badasses. Wizards, druids, dragons...It's really good.

Y'know, this place is pretty low-stakes, as dating goes. If it doesn't go well, it's likely we'll both forget once we get back home.
[And on the other hand, if it does go well, and one of them gets sent home, the other will be left with a large loss.]
