[ can she blame him? no, but she still knows what he's up to.]
I have reasons in either direction, I just...
[ she shifts out of frame for a moment, the sounds of her in a conversation heard distantly in the background. Olympia's not in the greatest shape right now, so she takes a moment to help someone with a heavier piece of debris before she pops up again.
she'd swear his hair looks a little darker again (already).]
You're not going to make this weird and light candles or drop rose petals on the bed or anything, right?
[ There's a million ways she could decide to handle this. She could easily not show up. She could stand him up and he anticipates it would come with a work called excuse. Or something close.
When she disappears after trailing off it's easy to think the worst, but he's not deaf (just missing a hand). Killian squints and then settles as he waits until she's back. ]
Only if that's what you require. Picking rose petals from my chest hair doesn't sound delightful.
[ there's a part of her that doesn't want this to be a big deal. he remembers having sex with her before, so it's not a first for both of them, anyway.
and if that puts her at a disadvantage, that's fine. she's gotten used to it.]
Okay.
[ okay as in, there's at least a 75% chance of this happening now.]
[ He can only hope he doesn't make it strange. He will perhaps be a tad bit worried about her in his head. There's quite a number of things that could take this from good to bad quickly. They both know that. ]
[ she's betting he's going to make it strange, but at the same time, they've already faced worse. being close to him is something she's wanted for a while, she's just held off out of... well, the same fears she's always had.
it's just a night, she can let go of them for long enough to show him exactly how much she wants him beside her.]
[ He looks down and then up with a smile. Finally Killian nods and decides to let her carry on her walk in silence. It'll be faster and it'll give her time to think and make a decision on if she truly does want this. He would prefer her know when arriving rather than deciding on that halfway in the middle. Not that he'd be upset, but it would just make things a tad easier.
Killian does set the dog up somewhere else where he wont interrupt anything potentially happening. He doesn't really trust him not to figure out some way to put an end to this moment. ]
[ would it surprise him to hear that she stalls, just enough to drag out her walk a little longer? with so many people in need of help, it's not that hard to find someone who could use a little magic, or another pair of hands. and in the end, it's not because she doesn't want to go home to him.
it's because she does, and what that might mean for them. so it takes twenty minutes when it should only take ten, but she assumes she's the only one keeping track. he's the one who remembers this, she's the one going in blind. it's probably not nearly as nerve-wracking for him as it is for her.
sp she tries to keep things casual when she walks through the door, setting her jacket aside and wandering through the house until she finds the pirate, wherever he might be hiding.] Killian? Hey.

and she's resisted all of those times, too.]
