[Milliways: Suite 132]

There's a whole lot of things that Mel used to take for granted that she didn't even know she was supposed to appreciate before they went. Not just the stamina for exercise and poise, but advantages to being the Slayer that she barely knew were because of her demon until she lost it

Boxer-short clad Indy is doing some shuffling of his own as he makes his way out of Lilly's bedroom at around this time, stretching and mussing his hand through some horribly angular hair. He looks bleary-eyed beyond tiredness—a bit hungover perhaps—but it's offset by a certain peaceful happiness. Yesterday there was a definite glow about him after he talked to Arithon. This morning, the effect is even more pronounced. He's even humming. It's not Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah, but it might as well be.

"Morning, you."

He lets his hand trail lovingly over Mel's back as he passes, heading for the Advil drawer. Someone's getting surprise coffee in bed, and maybe breakfast if Indy can scrounge something up. But first: medication and rehydration.

Lilly's room huh?

Mel raises an amused eyebrow, and brushes her hand along Indy's arm as it trails.

"Morning. Good night, was it?"

[henry_jones_jr]

"Mmmhmm. Very."

Indy makes quick (un-Mike-like) work of the child safety cap on the pill bottle, and shakes a couple of tablets into his palm.

"You want coffee?"

[slayer_fray]

"If you're making," she replies, with a yawn. "Thanks."

It's mid-morning by the time Mel's finished her workout and shower, and Lilly's finished her far less strenuous Pilates and hot tub soak. She's on the couch with a notepad when Mel emerges from her room.

There may be a wolfwhistle.

May there indeed? Mel grins as she detours through the kitchen, cracking open a tube of cookie dough before joining Lilly on the couch.

"Morning."

[awesome_lilly]

"Morning," Lilly says cheerfully, tossing the notebook aside and eyeing the cookie dough.

"I see you've gone for the breakfast of champions."

[slayer_fray]

"My breakfast was pancakes downstairs," Mel points out. "This is my post shower snack, actually."
