FAMILY DINNER

[falsify]

[Having Nancy over isn't as common as it used to be, life is busy and whatnot, but Eames sometimes makes an effort. He's even gone so far as to make something to eat that he knows Nancy loves, and he is well stocked with wine for the two of them.]

[Arthur's off visiting a friend or something, so it's just the two of them for tonight. The two of them and a dog who is always happy for familiar company and spends a good chunk of time sat by Nancy's feet, only slightly hoping maybe she'll share some food even if it's against the rules.]

Comments

[stauncherhearted]

really! I would have expected you to have at least once.

Roslin's quite pretty. [Now she's just teasing him.]

[falsify]

Oh... I forgot she's the werewolf rep.

[Okay well there's one.]

[stauncherhearted]

...You've slept with the president?

[Then again, she'd slept with the previous president.]

Jesus, Eames.

[falsify]

[Christ, she is the president isn't she? He's pretty sure he even backed her campaign. Eames rubs the bridge of his nose.]

I really enjoy sex, what do you want from me?

[stauncherhearted]

[Nancy giggles so completely and totally, turning bright red.]

Oh my god- you're amazing. I love it, I really, really love it. [She's looking at him with a great fondness.]

[falsify]

[Well that's a new take.]

Well I'm glad someone appreciates me.

[stauncherhearted]

I didn’t say I appreciated you! Now you’re getting ahead of yourself!

[falsify]

It was heavily implied.

[stauncherhearted]

But not stated explicitly. Sorry, love. [She drinks again and moves to fill her glass and top Eames off]

[falsify]

[Why are his friends so rude.]

I'll take it. It's still one of the better reactions to my, ah. Proclivities.

[stauncherhearted]

Yeah? What was the worst?

[falsify]

[There's some doozies in there, especially when alternative anatomy was involved, but Eames doesn't want to go down that road. It's depressing and he imagines it'd bring up some nasty stuff for Nancy too.]

[Instead his lips curl in a smirk and he leans toward Nancy.]

It's not the worst exactly, but all things considered, exclusivity is relatively recent for me and Arthur.

[He pauses to take a drink, and to let Nancy wonder where he's going with this.]

It took some adjusting. I'm pretty sure I almost put him in the hospital with my libido.

[stauncherhearted]

[It's appreciated, honestly. She didn't want to go down that road. She'd rather keep it light and airy, for once.]

Oh my god! I did not need to know that! [She's blushing and giggling, kicking her small feet under the table with glee.] Wait- do you top or bottom? I'm generally far more bottom- so to speak.

[falsify]

Both? Depends on the mood, you know?

[He's glad she's enjoying this, even if Arthur's gonna be at least 30% mad about Eames telling her some of this stuff. He knows Nancy doesn't get to be totally candid that often, probably even less for fun.]

I never really think about it like that anyway-- especially with some of what I do. It gets a bit messy trying to box it in.

[stauncherhearted]

I guess?

[Nancy had never been the take-charge-in-the-bedroom kind of girl.]

Yeah? Alright, come on, what're your kinks. Let's have it.

[falsify]

[Eames laughs and shakes his head.]

Nope. We're not going there.

[stauncherhearted]

Oh come on! You know I never get to talk about this sort of thing, right?

[falsify]

Well then what are yours? Maybe I can find a a nice gentleman for you to do something you've always wanted to try with.

[He's already getting his phone out it's happening.]

[stauncherhearted]

No no no, you put that phone down.

[She will magic it out of his hand if she has to.]

I've never really been able to develop them? I don't know what to ask for.

[falsify]

[Nope. He even puts his drink down so he can hold it with both hands.]

Well you must have some ideas. Something you like the idea of but you don't know much about? Something you've done a bit of but you'd like to explore a bit.

[He glances up from his phone and fixes Nancy with a raised eyebrow.]

Something that got you a bit unexpectedly excited?

[stauncherhearted]

Nope. Nope, not saying anything.

[Besides, he'd judge her if she told him what she got a little unexpectedly excited about.]

Not till you put that phone down and promise me you'll not play match-maker.

[She wasn't ready yet.]

[falsify]

I can promise you I won't do it today.

[He puts his phone face-down on the table, but he's nit guaranteeing any more than that.]

[stauncherhearted]

Nope. No way.

You’d judge me anyway. [her kinks were heavy, considering her life]

[falsify]

I can guarantee you that's almost impossible.

[He can't even think of a kink he'd judge someone for, not on its own anyway.]

[stauncherhearted]

[Nancy crosses her arms and gives Eames a look. She holds it for five seconds before sighing.]

Fine! I always liked when clients would be a bit rough. Sometimes tied me down- when it was t scary. a few would feed off my inner thigh and that was... really great. him-
I’m awful about this for having done sex work for how long?
