[ he'll accept all this, even more malleable with the tipsiness. all his stiffness has melted away and though it takes him a second to remember how to use his arms, he'll embrace her back. ]
Of course.
[ why bother with a 'you're welcome' when to him, this level of generosity is just so terribly natural? it takes such a specific set of interactions to earn scien's attention, but once earned, it's hard not to feel set for life. like having a manmade god in the palm of your hand. ]
Someone has to take care of you when I'm not there. If you want him, and he wants to be made flesh and whole, then isn't it obvious what comes next?
[she eases into the hug for a little bit, because it's the only way she can get all of these very big emotions she's feeling out into the world. there's really nothing else that feels as relieving as hearing someone say they'll take care of her, however they can - she doesn't need it, but she thinks it's okay to want it, after everything.]
You're so sweet to me.

Don't know what I did to earn all this from you, but I'm glad for it.
[ this is where i admit i just found a minimized window of tags i was working on last week so i lost the notifs it's fine it's fine feel free to drop hides in embarrassment

If I am chasing an interesting life, it is good that you're in it.

You can say nice things about me, I won't stop you. And then I'm taking you to sleep off how drunk you are. Lightweight.
