LOCKED - (demonverse)

[a_time_slip]

After that last time with Raum, I'm almost not surprised that he finally got rid of me.

I'm glad, gods, I'm more than grateful that...

I think I would have made a very bad mistake if it continued much longer. I hope this goes better.

ooc: Janie fails at locks, so this is open. Everything is always open in her journal.

Let's have drinks... and dinner. Can we do that? I don't want to go anywhere, but I need a drink.

[lostinthefog]

Sure! That's a wonderful idea.

*Julian lets go of Janie rather reluctantly and walks over to the small table to put away his stuff.* What would you like for dinner?

[a_time_slip]

Fruit, thank you. I just need a little more energy for tonight. If I need it...

[lostinthefog]

*Julian summons bowl with all kinds of fruit, strawberries, melons, exotic kinds, probably more than they can eat. He stops when he realizes what Janie means, though*

... Not if you don't want.

[a_time_slip]

*Janie is already headed for the bowl. She's starving*

I want to, and I want to wake up in your arms, knowing that I'm happy and safe and that everything is okay.

[lostinthefog]

*Julian adds some bread and cheese, as well as several bottles of various alcoholic beverages, trying to arrange it all somewhat neatly.*

... alright. I hope I can ensure all of that.

[a_time_slip]

I know that you will.

[lostinthefog]

*He is less confident about this than Janie, but he smiles and sits down next to her, grabbing a handful of strawberries*

I'll try my best.

[a_time_slip]

You will, as long as you're here in the morning. And if, um. It doesn't seem to work out, just be here, with me. It'll all be okay.

*she pours a whiskey for herself and Julian, before quickly drinking her glass*

[lostinthefog]

I will be here, I promise. I won't leave you. Not tonight, or ever.

*Julian thankfully grabs his glass and drinks*

[a_time_slip]

Thank you. *she now seems to feel better about everything*

[lostinthefog]

*So does he, at least a bit. He refills both of their glasses and carefully leans against Janie, smiling at her*

Hey ... I'd be incredibly stupid if I did.

[a_time_slip]

*she grins at him*

No, you'd be smart. I'm nothing but trouble.

[lostinthefog]

That's not true, and even if it were, you're very well worth the trouble. Also, I'm not better anyway.

[a_time_slip]

You're not?

[lostinthefog]

With all this demon stuff? I guess not. And I'm sure you could find someone who doesn't find you that ... uhm. Yummy.

[a_time_slip]

I don't mind the demon stuff, Julian. I also don't mind that you find me yummy.

Just don't... snack too much on me?

[lostinthefog]

*He smiles again, reassured by her words*

I try. It's just so hard to stop sometimes, even when I'm aware of it.

[a_time_slip]

You're getting better at stopping. Thanks for even trying...

[lostinthefog]

I'd do more than trying if I knew how ... Thanks for being so patient with me.

[a_time_slip]

I need you, Julian. You have all the chances you could ever want.

[lostinthefog]

... thank you. I'd rather not take them all, but I'm grateful for them.

[a_time_slip]

You'll never take them all.

[lostinthefog]

... you are wonderful, you know. *He moves a little to have enough space for kissing her softly*

[a_time_slip]

*she blushes, not believing him, but welcomes a kiss and throws her arms around him*
