I'm in a perfectly great mood. Thanks.
It's just all these grandmas are trying my patience today. Mrs. Panken insisted she shouldn't have a late fee because she returned her tape last week. I had to dig an hour through the goddamn computer and go spelunking in the back and oh, what do you know, it was in her purse the whole time.
And then she wanted me to wave the fee anyhow, because I held up her morning.

[ she's sympathy-pouting at her phone, but it's the kind that's double-tasking because it's also trying to stop herself from smiling. he can't see it, obviously, but she still feels a little bad for feeling amused...
but no!! grandmas can't fuck around and waste bae's time like that, that's not cute ]
She waited until after you had already spent an HOUR looking for it before checking her bag?
Please tell me you didn't actually waive the fee?

Oh, that definitely just makes me want to mess it up when we go out.
Or right before we go out, when I'm trying to convince you that we should stay in instead.
And hey, it's not like I haven't wanted to!
Your hair is crazy soft and always smells so good, but it's always felt a little off-limits.
Now that I know better, I'm not sure how I'll be able to resist playing with it every chance I get.

(Sorry for the delay - RL did that thing where it makes itself an inconvenience in general)
Please don't, you'll make me grumpy.
... I would say there's better ways to convince me, but if you make it a double whammy it'd probably work.
I mean I know its dumb just how much that strokes my ego. Like, I know it's silky and smells of strawerries and cream, but knowing you know too... Its cool.
I've created a monster, haven't I?

[ .....no gdi it's already embarrassing enough that his pouty face totally works on her in person, it should NOT be able to work on her via photo, too. it's mortifying, really. ]
I accept your apology, but you do still need to make it up to me.
Hmmm.
Oh!
Wait, no.
I was going to suggest that a back rub is the only way to get back into my good graces, but that would just be tempting you to snuggle up behind me after, when I'm too relaxed to think! The same way you did last night! Which would defeat the purpose, really.
[ even though that does sound really nice, actually. damn! no. she has to stand her ground on this one! but maybe she still can. ]
Unless you think you could actually behave yourself and resist this time?
And then actually let me be big spoon after.

( steve would love to say that he has enough self control for this, but apparently all bets are off once he's asleep. )
Well, I guess we could give it a try. I promise to resist and at least try to let you be big spoon. If we shift during the night, though...
I know, I know...we'll make it work...?
( besides, they'll get there eventually. even if it takes several nights of training steve in the art of being little spoon. )

( is Nancy probably at class right now?? yeah. maybe. definitely, even. but look, sometimes there's questions that need immediate asking. not quite an emergency because Steve would just call if not drive to Hawkins High dramatically to page her to the office, if sitting around and hammering the horn didn't get him results in a minute or less.
still important enough to maybe distract her in English though. )
Are you a beach girl or a snow bunny girl?

[ she's definitely sitting in class, but they're so close to graduation that it hardly constitutes as a "class" at this point. even the teachers have checked out. still, her phone buzzes and she ignores it at first, because apparently it's impossible to turn that part of her brain off. but the second reminder notification has her reaching into her bag for it. ]
Can I pick both? I like both.
[ what? it's true. she likes ice skating and snuggling up to get cozy, but she likes spending time with someone while laying out in the sun, too. ..usually. she burns pretty easily. hm. ]
I might be more of a snow bunny, actually.
Why..?

Snow bunny. I would have guessed snow bunny. But I wanted to be sure.
( he's slightly distracted patting himself on the back here he forgot to answer the "why" part. )
Grape jelly or strawberry?

[ maybe she shouldn't entertain the thought her brain instantly jumped to, but it's just too tempting. because yes, anytime she'd been called princess in the past, it definitely wasn't complimentary at all, but it doesn't rub her the wrong way, making light of it now. especially not coming from steve, even when he's calling her a complete bossy, bratty princess. so... maybe it's fine.
and if it's not fine, she's more than confident she would be able to tell, even through a text message. so. yolo. ]
Oh my gosh, that's right!
I can't believe it somehow slipped my mind that I'm dating actual crowned royalty.
THE King Steve.
Of course you can handle it, baby, and I'm
I'mso sorry that I was foo
lish enough to question it.
[ she probably quit laughing at her own joke and fix her text before sending it but nah ]

( yes, somehow he means "bossy bratty princess" in the BEST way possible. he likes every part of what that entails, from the pouting to the telling him to fuck her harder or climbing on top of him like he is her boy sized throne. Steve is comfortable calling Nancy a bossy bratty princess, he finds time to fit it in between all the beautiful lovey-dovey schmoopy stuff.
...mostly because it is very, very true! )
Very funny. Maybe your middle name is brat, now that I think about it.
I can handle it because I can handle you. I know what you like. And I know not letting you have it makes you a complete mess waiting and wanting.

My (metaphorical) middle name is still Princess, even if I do happen to have a penchant for occasionally being bratty.
And that
is
SUCH a copout, Harrington.
That's the total opposite of handling me, actually, when you think about it.
[ it's not, but like hell is she going to admit to that! nope! ]

not actually necessary
but i get it
when it worked the first time i thought i was losing my mind for a second
( it isn't like she wasn't witchy before the fog. but being witchy didn't amount to much in her world. it only seemed to matter here in the realm. )
were you scared
?

Oh.
Right, of course.
I imagine that would get frustrating after a while, absolutely.
All the property damage.
[ is this really happening right now?? get rid of???? it???? ?? ???? ??? ?? ?????? ... can they even do that??? ]
Well... It will almost always follow the scent of blood, no matter what, and the only thing I've ever seen it run away from is fire. But if you're looking for a permanent solution, I'm
not sure I have an answer for that.
Especially considering death doesn't exactly stick here.
There must be something unique about the asylum that it's attracted to, if it keeps coming back. Figuring that out is probably step one.

That is so not the point!
There are actually layers to the point, but that's not one of them.
One being
Why would she assume I would be there with you? Should I be concerned about that?
And the second one being that I actually felt guilty for not having an answer for her.
