"Oh, so you're saying this isn't a romantic comedy about the two skilled but lonely go-getters who build a business together, which of course goes down in flames due to contrived circumstances but at least they found each other?"

Permalink

"A romantic comedy? Ooh, a bit presumptuous, aren't we?"

Or perhaps not.

Permalink

"If you say it's not, that's that. But I like you enough to help change your alternate universe Earth for the better and get rich in the process, so, yeah."

Permalink

"No, it's definitely got the skilled go-getters. It's also got some of the comedy side. I'm just not sure it has enough of the romance side."

Permalink

He takes a long look at her. Making sure he's not reading it wrong. But, well, they have been flirting off and on for a while.

"I think I can fix that." And he steps close and leans forward for a kiss.

Permalink

She smiles at him and, oh look, they're kissing.

Permalink

...Yeah, this is nice. It should continue for a while.

Kissing is something you don't really forget how to do, but he might be a bit out of practice. After a few moments the robots stop moving things and fold themselves up, in absence of further instructions from Nick.

Permalink

This is nice, he's right! She is perfectly okay with it continuing for a while, and, well, she isn't out of practice.

Permalink

And if he floats a bit to be in a slightly less awkward position for kissing that can only improve things, right?

Permalink

Right! Less awkward kissing: so much better than more awkward kissing.

Permalink

He's learning fast. And if one hand wraps around her back and starts stroking her hair?

Permalink

That is... okay!

Still: kissing.

Permalink

Yep, kissing. He doesn't push further than the hair thing.

 

 

After a while, though, "We should probably talk about what each of us wants, here."

Permalink

"We probably should. ... Um, I'm not really looking for anything, uh... seriously serious."

Permalink

"More or less the same. I like you, I like kissing you, I'd certainly enjoy anything more than kissing, but we're going to build great things literally and not metaphorically. I do not predict I will develop a strong desire to declare you my girlfriend or ask you to avoid romance with others unless you particularly want that."

Permalink

"I do not currently want that, no. I'm glad we agree."

Now, since that's over with... the kisses can resume.

Permalink

Kisses! Kisses are fun, yes. He makes little appreciative noises.

Permalink

Oh, that's nice! Kisses are indeed fun.

Permalink

Are kisses improved by Nick bringing one hand up to cup her cheek?

Permalink

Mmmarginally. How about if she puts her hand on the back of his head, and... increases the intensity?

Permalink

Yes.

This is a good spot. He likes this spot, he could stay here for a little while.

Permalink

Oh, she's so glad he's enjoying himself, because it's makes her enjoy it more too. She can stay here a while, too, but if it gets to be too long, she'll probably break off the kiss.

Of course, what she defines as 'too long' is flexible, and it's not like they have anything pressing to attend to, so it might be a while before that occurs.

Permalink

'A while' turns out to be 'until one of the machines in the corner beeps loudly', a few minutes. "...I should probably get to work with all this new material."

Permalink

Well, that's unfortunate, but she can cope. "You probably should."

Permalink

"There will be more kisses later, worry not."
