[nutsaboutscans]

Me neither, but you're right.

[He watches Rhino make his way over to him, then reaches out with one finger to stroke down his back.]

[unmakes]

They were actually buttons a few days ago - like, coat buttons? [ which explains their size. she lifts a shoulder in a casual half-shrug. ] I know a guy. He's kind of a wizard. [ either way, they're her hedgehogs now. ]

[nutsaboutscans]

[He looks up, then shakes his head.] Of course there's a wizard on this ship. Who is he? Friend of yours?

[unmakes]

Friend, neighbor, self-proclaimed bodyguard. [ a dismissive sort of hand-wave. he's totally a good wizard, don't worry. ] I actually know a couple of them, but I'm pretty sure the other one thinks I'm nuts.

[nutsaboutscans]

Hm. The more you know. I haven't met many magical people I don't think.

[Pause.] Except maybe that really tall woman with the pretty hair.

[He's having trouble remembering her name.]

[unmakes]

[ she grins a sort of confused grin, then shakes her head. ] I have no idea who you're talking about, sorry.

[nutsaboutscans]

Kinda glowy with pointy ears? Gala... something.

[He waves a dismissive hand.] Doesn't matter. She was nice, though. Anyway, I'd like to see your bodyguard do some magic.

[unmakes]

That could probably be arranged. [ with the amount that sirius is taking up some amount of space in her room, it could definitely be arranged. in fact: ] One of these days, I'll cook for you. Pretty much every time I'm in the kitchen he ~happens to show up~, so that's kind of a shoe-in.

[nutsaboutscans]

Cook for me? [He looks up eagerly. He loves food and can't cook.] Sounds good to me.

[unmakes]

[ she almost laughs. ] Don't get too excited, I'm not exactly that great at it.

[nutsaboutscans]

Can't be worse than me. [Leans in conspiratorially] I burn everything.

[unmakes]

[ she lifts the hand not stroking buttons the hedgehog to mime zipping her lips. his secret's safe with her. ] Josh always cooked enough for, like, a full table of people, [ she says, braking into a fond sort of grin as she thinks back. not even just back to when she came from - she's thinking back to the way things were the first time around. the family they built themselves. ] Which didn't even make sense, because it's not like Aidan even eats.

[ ...... fuck. did she seriously just -

be cool, sally, be casual. ] I mean, he had to eat all this weird super-specific diet stuff. I guess he was allergic to, like, a ton of stuff, so. [ good enough save, right? god, she needs to be more careful. things between her and john as it is make being careful super hard, because she's comfortable enough to be herself and that usually doesn't happen unless the person knows about all of the vamp-wolf bullshit. ]

[nutsaboutscans]

[Not gonna lie, John's a cop. He totally caught that. But he doesn't quite understand it, so he plays along.]

Oh, really? That sucks. Maybe I can bum some food off Josh, though. [he says with a grin.]

[unmakes]

You probably could, actually. Just tell him that if he doesn't cook for you, I will. [ and sally can stand there looking adorable and innocent and josh is a sucker for that. ]

[nutsaboutscans]

[He chuckles.] Sounds good.

You should meet Heather, if you haven't already. She's a good egg.

[unmakes]

[ she tilts her head thoughtfully for a second, lifting a finger. ] Huh, so the whole 'good egg' thing comes back around? Because I'm pretty sure that was a thing, like, fifty years ago.

[nutsaboutscans]

[He looks bemused.] I'm pretty sure your mom was a thing last night.

[IT'S ON SALLY]

[unmakes]

[ oh, that's how they're gonna play? it's definitely on. ] I'm actually pretty sure that was my dad. He told me to tell you thanks for the good time. And, y'know, that a little foreplay never kills a guy.

[nutsaboutscans]

[He looks a little red honestly. God, Sally you fight dirty.] I don't even know what to say to that. Maybe I should fly the white flag.

[unmakes]

[ sally takes a mock-bow in place, complete with a hand flourish. ] I see your white flag and raise you a hedgehog. [ and she scoops rhino up, ready to set him in john's hands if he holds them out. ]

[nutsaboutscans]

[John holds out his hands and lets her place him in his hands.] What did you say their names were?

[unmakes]

[ okay now sally looks a little sheepish, albeit in an amused way. ] That one's Rhino, [ she says, then looks down to the one still in her lap. ] And this one's Buttons for short.

[nutsaboutscans]

[He pets Rhino's back.] What is Buttons short for?

[unmakes]

Thaaaat would be Buttons Mothafucka the 1st. [ she admits, then tacks on: ] Because she's hardcore.

[nutsaboutscans]

[...] ...Because she's... [He looks down at the tiny hedgehog.] Okay. Yes.

I think Rhino and I are friends. [He says with maybe a tiny amount of delight, smiling down at the hedgehog.]
