All for the best girl.

(Does Eliese want to spend the night here, or head back to the ship, or send Acererak to check on the pets then come back here...?)

Would Lace like to visit the ship?

Hm... She's never been on a spaceship, though she has the sneaking suspicion the beds here are cozier...

They own a very high-quality spaceship. And Acererak has made several upgrades to the bedding.

Fun!

She'll sleep wherever Eliese wants her to, then, but wouldn't mind seeing the spaceship at least once.

Then to the spaceship they shall go for the night. The spot at the foot of the bed is taken, but Lace can squeeze in next to her.

She's okay with getting cozy, fortunately.

Good!

Sleepy snugs!

(She probably falls asleep before Eliese.)

Eliese watches her with a smile before falling asleep herself.

She's up early the next morning. She basks in watching Eliese for a bit, then gently detangles herself to go get breakfast - trying not to wake up Eliese, of course.

Eliese is a very sound sleeper.

Lace is a quiet walker, too.

She pokes around the kitchen cabinets for a little bit.

Acererak detangles herself shortly thereafter, following Lace to the kitchen.

"Looking for the coffee?"

"Yeah. And some kind of very light just-woke-up breakfast. Dunno if you guys have eggs and toast..."

"I'll see what we can manage."

She makes coffee and a light breakfast for herself, too, sitting across the kitchen table from Lace to nurse her coffee.

Good. And cozy - Lace likes morning afters.

Between sips - "Are you thinking of letting us keep you?" she teases, voice light.

Shrug. "Uh - complicated feelings about that."

" - Oh?"

"Acererak - do you actually, endorsedly, honestly, fully want to have me as a permanent piece of your relationship right now?"

Pause.

"...Eliese really likes you. And I want her to have things she likes."

"She likes hooking up with me." She shrugs. "I'm definitely down for more booty call kidnappings, but..." She sighs and places a hand over Acererak's. Gently: "You noticed you love her less than twenty four hours ago, right?"

Slow nod.

"Is this your first romantic relationship?"
