Room 238, Saturday afternoon

[can_be_more]

Aeryn is taking petsitting seriously. Vladdie's bottles are in the fridge, the curtains are closed, Yoda is far away from the sea monkeys because although she doubts there would be a problem unless she put Yoda in the tank, she'd rather not take any chances, and she's not running from the room at all. So far it's not going badly.

And she keeps looking at the ceiling to make sure Vladdie's not up there.

Bertram joins in.

Aeryn goes to find the aspirin.

Bertram follows her.

Aeryn turns away when she goes to take the aspirin. "No pictures," she tells him.

John steps out of the shower, towel around his waist and wet hair in his eyes.

"Entertaining the masses?"

[can_be_more]

"They sang with you," she tells him, placing her glass in the sink.

"Awww. That's my boys!" John grins at Vladdie and Bertram. "What's wrong?"

[can_be_more]

"Preventive measures," she says, and wonders if she shouldn't try bonding with the turtle. He's quiet.

"C'mere," he says and waves her over.

[can_be_more]

She heads over, making sure she's not stepping on anyone.

He leans in and kisses her once.

[can_be_more]

"What was that for?" she asks with a little smile.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"I have to have a reason to kiss you?"

[can_be_more]

"No," she smiles. "Just wondering if you had one."

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Nope. Just wanted to." He drops the towel and heads over to grab some clothes.

[can_be_more]

She picks up the towel and snaps it at him lightly on his way.

"Hey ow!" John grabs at his rear and scowls at her.

[can_be_more]

"Some modesty for the guests?" she says.

Vladdie is still happy with his dust bunny.

"I'm getting there," John says and, just because, slides on another pair of the boxer briefs he'd received from Aeryn and a green shirt. "There."

[can_be_more]

Green's not his best color, but she doesn't say anything about it. Because also, she likes the boxer briefs. "Better," she tells him, putting the towel on the back of a chair to dry.

"Glad you approve," he smirks and flops back onto his bed.

[can_be_more]

At that, Vladdie stands up and barks at the bed.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"You can put him up here," John mumbles.

[can_be_more]

"Are you going to take a nap with Vladdie?" she asks, and she barely reaches down for Vladdie before he's flying up to the bed himself and barks at John's feet.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"I think a nap might just happen," he says and pats the space near his head for Vladdie.
