[Raylan doesn't sleep with just anyone. Neal, Maggie, Laura - they were all people he was emotionally invested in, and the opportunity to cuddle that feeling out into the world wasn't something he took just for the sexual companionship. He liked showing this kind of affection.]
I'm sure. I don't use it nearly often enough and someone oughta enjoy it. Especially if you're out here gettin' cut up like this in your spare time. I even got candles that are gatherin' dust.
[He also like the idea of people he cared about puttering around his space.]
[ affection like that is something she hasn't had in a long time and craves more than she's willing to admit. to anyone. it brings a tiny wistful smile to her lips before it falls away when memories come back of shadow. ]
Alright, don't say I didn't warn ya because I do really love a long hot bath. [ she gives him a big smile that's followed by a soft laugh. this might actually be the happiest he's seen her besides the night he showed her his beach. ] I promise I'll call ahead first.
[It spoke to how strong she was, that she could look that way while being hurt the way she was. He wanted to kiss her head but he didn't know how tender everything was so he'd refrain for now. That didn't stop the softness over his features though.]
I'd appreciate that. I got no idea what my new normal is really gonna look like and I need to figure that out too.
I don't need to leave room in for you strikin' back out at Kikimora, right?
[ there's also no assuming that she'd be the only one in that little black metaphorical book of his; to which she was sure he knew he wasn't the only name in hers. the barge was full of flavours. it merely depends on what your craving.
the question has her gaze shifting past him and she shrugs a shoulder up. ]
No. I'm not that kind of angry anymore. [ the angry laura that would have caught the little bitch and tore her to pieces like she did all those faceless people who hung shadow in the tree.] I'm done. Reality check received. Karma handed out.
I'm glad to hear that. Anger is a hellva beast... And it'll annoy the hell outta her.
[Raylan had those dips, where he was sure that he had it all under control and dealt with but then something happens and the fury flames back to life, easy as breathing.]
What do you plan on doin' with the rest of your evenin'.
Nah, just wanted to make sure I wasn't keepin' you from somethin'. Nothin' on my evenin' schedules outside of some light readin' to go with my whiskey and my cat.
Every once and a while I consider countin' all these damned stars but then I get around to worryin' that they're not real in the first place. I can't tell you how much I miss sunlight.
