[They constantly live lives in the fast lane, making snap decisions that decide whether countless people live or die. Everything is fast, rough, and on the edge of danger.
Sometimes, though, even those who live lives like theirs need to slow down, to grab those fleeting moments for themselves, the ones that remind them why they fight so hard.
That is why Harry set aside this evening for her, and is using his best persuasion technique to convince her to relax.
[She'd tried putting up a fight, she really had, but the fact of the matter was that McCoy had sniped all of her patients out from under her, and the Hospital administration was getting that edgy tone to their letters that meant she was coming up on one of those holidays that it was compulsory for her to take. So when Harry had cornered her about spending an evening together, by themselves, with no supernatural creatures or idiots with teapots for heads to interrupt...
Maybe she hadn't fought that hard]
I'm doing this under duress. [She sighs the words out, closing her eyes as his hands work into her bare back.]
[He can't stand still. He goes over to her and grabs one of her hands.] You know what. It's your birthday! [And he'll attempt to drag her down the hallway.]
[Alyss stares down at the cut in her arm, the ragged rip of flesh from where one of those things had scratched her. The blood seems to have slowed down, but she feels dizzy, light-headed. She leans against a wall and takes a deep breath.]
[Kyp sees Alice get hit, and the next few minutes are lost to him as he reaches through for the Force and destroys the remaining creatures. His lightsaber shears through the last one, and he doesn't even wait for the pieces of body to hit the ground before he's turning back to her]
[A pause]
You should get injured more often, if this is the result. [He nods, indicated the carnage around him]
god, I could not... make anything work 8|misplacedqueenJune 9 2011, 02:49:27 UTC
[Her eyebrows go up in surprise, not so much because of his power, but because of his words. She huffs slightly, attempting to push off the wall only to sag against it this time.]
If you could produce that result before I take damage, I would appreciate that much more.

You sound very duressed. [He leans in to place a gentle kiss behind her ear] But I can think of a few more pleasant things for you to be under.

Catty, I - you're still on for practice tomorrow morning, right? [They are in Seventh Year and on for practice every morning]
