Talk to Michael

He's here. And not green.

Ino wandered in around her usual time and grinned when she saw him. "No longer green?"

Re: Talk to Michael

[rebelheartalien.livejournal.com]

"Yeah", he said with a grin in return. "Wore off Thursday. And no blue diamonds for me."

"Ah well, I suppose I'll just have to go on liking the regular you if I have to," Ino teased.

"Such a hardship, I know", he returned in a similar tone.

Re: Talk to Michael

[intraspective]

"Oh yes. Terrible hardship." With a nod that didn't quite hide the grin on her face.

Re: Talk to Michael

"You're a martyr to... something."

Re: Talk to Michael

[intraspective]

"To kissing cute boys?"

She wrinkled her nose cheerfully at him.

Re: Talk to Michael

[rebelheartalien.livejournal.com]

"That'll do."

He grinned, mopping up some spilled ketchup on the counter.

"Of course," Ino said, watching him, "I could totally find some paint if you ever got tired of just being regular coloured."

She laughed. "Liir said I can't colour him orange, but had no other objections after I pouted at him."

Re: Talk to Michael

The rag skidded in his hand, and he stared at her.

"You got a thing about colouring people? ...what kind of paint?"

Re: Talk to Michael

[intraspective]

"It amuses me?" Ino tilted her head at him, "Body paint, of course. I wouldn't use actual paint on someone's skin, even if Andrew did mention that he already had a bunch of paint that could be useful."

Isabel came into the dinner and smiled. "You're not green anymore."

Re: Talk to Michael

[rebelheartalien.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, it changed back on Thursday", Michael told her. "Which means... I'm going back for break after all."

Re: Talk to Michael

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"They'll be glad to see you," she nodded. "They would be, even if you were still green."

Re: Talk to Michael

[rebelheartalien.livejournal.com]

"They would be", he agreed.

Re: Talk to Michael

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he had to go back and deal with Hank. "You'll be careful?"

Re: Talk to Michael

[rebelheartalien.livejournal.com]

"Always am", he said honestly.

Re: Talk to Michael

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I'll still worry," she told him.

Re: Talk to Michael

[rebelheartalien.livejournal.com]

"I know. But what's really gonna happen, huh?"

Re: Talk to Michael

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Hopefully nothing." Of course Isabel had been in Fandom too long. "However you realize that we've just jinxed ourselves. So keep your head down."

Re: Talk to Michael

[rebelheartalien.livejournal.com]

"Again, as usual", he said patiently.

There was a lot she'd forgotten, it seemed, about the way it used to be.

Re: Talk to Michael

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

It's not that she'd forgotten. It was more that she remembered too well how she felt when she'd finally realized how bad Michael had it. In truth, Isabel wished he'd stay in Fandom for the break, the repeated warnings were the only way she kept herself from trying to talk him into staying.

"Yes, I know you're perfectly capable of taking care of yourself. But fretting is my job."
