[ scien's emotions do a little tumble on deciding on whether or not he likes being called darling but ultimately they settle on being okay with it. liking it just a little not for the endearment itself but because he still likes it when lucas is in a good mood
he'll wander back out and honestly his hand immediately reaches out like he's going to brush against lucas's waist but he barely catches himself from having to wash his hands... again...
[SCIEN. He's so funny, not the little emotional tumble over being teased. THIS IS DOUBLY FUNNY DON'T JUST TOUCH HIS GORY SELF AGAIN IMMEDIATELY the way Lucas preemptively backs up a bit when he sees the hand reach for him. NO!!!! BE CLEAN.]
Of course, of course.
[AWAY HE GOES vanishing into the bathroom so he can wash up. It still takes a bit of time because he has all this damn hair, but he'll reemerge eventually with his hair damp, his clothing fresh, and a bundle full of bloody nightmare clothes to put in the basket so he can wash it up later.]
[ lucas cute... comfy... cozy... not scien's thoughts but just a fact of life. scien has already gone ahead to be horizontal, this time on the bed instead of just the couch. he's tapping away at his tablet, of course, and there's more data still flowing through it...
when lucas comes out, scien once again just opens his arm out to him! come! cuddle! ]
[JUST A FACT OF LIFE. He'll move back to the bed after he deposits his nightmare bundle into the laundry, immediately climbing onto it and settling himself down next to Scien, tucked down under his arm. CUDDLE...
After a second of looking at the tablet and whatever the hell is going on there, he just buries his face against Scien instead.]
[ once he finds a good stopping place in his work, and he has a lucas comfortably tucked into his side, will switch the tablet to sleep mode and put it off to the side.
and then he will automatically shift so that he can duck down and give lucas another kiss ]
Probably. Fine tuning, making sure everything works, running a trial if I can find time.
But I can do that when you're asleep.
[ if lucas is awake then scien can let background processes run... ]
I have a feeling sleep may not find me easily tonight, either...
[He's buzzing with faint nervous energy and little trills of beatdown vibes... Being able to punch a bunch of monsters earlier had helped only somewhat, considering the most important things loom ahead and the living and Muelsyse are out there doing who knows what as they speak.
But at the very least, he can enjoy a tiny bit of comfort in this moment, tucked into Scien's side and lifting his head enough to return the kiss.]

when they make it back to the apartment, scien just rolls his eyes. dryly: ]
Yes, dear.
[ he'll just throw away the gloves he was wearing and wash the rest of the gore off his hands ]

Anyway he just radiates some amusement at the dryass response and teases back a bit.]
Thank you, darling.
[Waiting until he's done patiently...]
