Hawi, Hawaii, Thursday Morning

[vanillajello]

While Fandom sunk deeper into madness, strange things were afoot on another island too. Kate had snuck out of bed a bit earlier than necessary, and headed to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

... It was strange if you knew her.

She had the radio on at low volume, and was dancing around a bit in her well-worn Hola Gato pajamas as she made pancakes to be served with syrup. There was already some crispy bacon waiting on the counter, and an assortment of fruit. And Donkey Balls, because there was nothing like making your boyfriend blush over suggestively named confectionaries at breakfast. Especially after you'd already tormented him with them at the store the day before.

Kate was evil. But she was also making breakfast, so she supposed that evened itself out.

[ooc: NFB, and for that guy!]

"Unless she wanted to practice for impending motherhood again," Bod pointed out with a laugh. "She might want to give that a try again."

[vanillajello]

"It's Charmaine," Kate said, as if that just said it all. "I doubt that."

[therewaslife]

"You don't think your aunt's going to be a good mum?" Bod wondered curiously. "Or just not a strict mum?"

[vanillajello]

"Not a strict mom," she replied. "The jury's gonna be out on that other thing until she actually has the baby."

[therewaslife]

"Well, she's got your mum and dad close by if she needs help," Bod said quietly, sighing. "And your brother and yourself will be around as well."

[vanillajello]

"And you," Kate added, tracing another heart. "Except I kinda wanna keep you all to myself."

[therewaslife]

"I'm not very good with children anyway and I might not be around as much as everyone else," he said, sighing quietly. "But, I'll help as much as I can or I'll stay away and just be for you."

[vanillajello]

"Just be for me," Kate replied. "I think you're actually pretty good with kids, but you can just be for me. You'll come visit and we'll just... lock ourselves up in our room."

[therewaslife]

"You don't think staying locked up in your room might draw some questions and comments?" Bod asked, laughing.

[vanillajello]

"Shush," Kate chided him. "I don't care about logical things like that. I would make you not care too."

[therewaslife]

"Oh?" Bod asked, glancing down at her. "And how would you make me not care?"

[vanillajello]

"Oh, I have my ways," Kate smirked up at him. "I have my body. Which you probably won't have seen in person for a while when you come to visit..."

[therewaslife]

"Oh god, I hadn't thought of that," he said and groaned just thinking about it. "Will you send me pictures?"

[vanillajello]

"Pictures like what?" she wondered, innocently. Or not. "Of my smiling face?"

[therewaslife]

"Amongst other things," Bod said, wondering if she'd make him be specific. He figured she would. "I've sent you pictures of myself before."

[I gotta say, that might be one of my two favorites of your new icons.]

[vanillajello]

"You have," Kate replied agreeably. "Like the ones you sent me when I was feeling shitty about having been a vampire. Those kinds of pictures?"

[Aww, mine too!]

[therewaslife]

"Yes, those are good ones too," Bod said, laughing. "Honestly, I'd enjoy any pictures you'd like to send to me of you."

[vanillajello]

"But those are not the kind you were originally hoping for?" Kate guessed because yes, she was going to try and get specifics. "Are they?"

[therewaslife]

"...no," he said and felt his cheeks heat up. "No, those weren't the ones I was hoping for."

[vanillajello]

"And...?" she prompted. "What were you hoping for? I can't fulfill your wishes if you don't tell me."

[therewaslife]

"Pictures..." He trailed off and coughed a little. "...of you."

[vanillajello]

"And the kind I just talked about, those weren't pictures of me?" Oh, poor Bod. "I thought they were."

[therewaslife]

"No no no, they were," Bod said hurriedly, blushing and stammering. "I would just like pictures where you show more of yourself."

[vanillajello]

"Like my charming wit?" Kate asked. "I don't know if I can convey that in a picture..."

[therewaslife]

"Kate, stop that," he said and laughed. "I am almost positive you know exactly what I mean."
