Kwik Stop Rooftop, Tuesday Afternoon
Dante? Not really the kind of guy who kept a schedule.
However, he'd been by here a couple of times, and the cat definitely seemed to be on one. So, fuck it. Tuesday afternoons on the Kwik Stop roof was where it was gonna have to be at. He showed up again with a bag full of stolen slices of meat and put 'em down next to him on the roof. "Lunch is here, if you want it," he called.
A couple moments later, the cat hopped back up on the roof, wandered over towards the meat, sniffed it, and then started scarfing it down.
"I don't get as much as a meow this time, huh?" Dante said. He shook his head. "Cats. Ungrateful animals."
The cat headbutted his thigh. "Hey, you're the one pawing in on my time," Dante said, and reached into his pocket to find a cigarette.

Dante shot it an amused look. "Hey, Kat," he greeted. "What brings you to my roof?"

Yes, Dante, sincere gratitude.
no subject
Sounding amused, more than anything else. He wasn't really in that mood right now, but she was fun to tease.
And yeah, he had gotten laid. And a motorcycle. So...

"I know, I'm such a prude," Kathy said, mournfully shaking her head. Reaching behind her, she started digging through her backpack with one hand. "With my policy of not getting naked on rooftops in broad daylight in the center of town with squirrels everywhere. However do you cope with being my friend?"
no subject
"Maybe I'm one of those stoic types," Dante said lazily. "Pushing through the pain."
no subject
"You are an inspiration for us all," Kathy told him dryly. "Here you go. You're getting two because I'm feeling generous today."
The first was a tupperware container filled with six oversized cupcakes, because Kathy's first instinct was to say 'thank you' (and 'I'm sorry') with baked goods.. The second was a bottle of tequila, because Kathy had realized that if she were giving Dante a thank you gift, it should probably be something that he'd actually enjoy.
no subject
But he put that aside and cracked open the tupperware, because it was vitally important he know what kind of icing there was on these cupcakes. What? He liked sugar. Not as much as alcohol, but still kind of a lot.
no subject
The real surprise was within. Kathy had remembered his dessert choice from the other week and had added strawberry jam filling to the inside of the cupcakes. But she'd let him figure that out on his own.
"No, thank you. I know you don't actually care about what I'm doing, but you helped me out anyway and I appreciate it," Kathy said. "And, hey. If you decide to keep helping me out because you know there's booze and baked goods in it for you, I can hardly complain. You're a handy guy to have in a motorcycle race."
no subject
An impressive and dramatic statement, for sure, especially when punctuated by him biting into a cupcake-- and then looking incredibly pleased when he hit the strawberry part.
no subject
Louder, she said, "I'll do my best not to come and rely on you too much. I mean, it will be hard, what with the twice you've helped me out versus the year-plus I've been doing this on my own, but I'll manage. Somehow."
Kathy, you smartass.
no subject
He took another bite of the cupcake. They were good.
no subject
The teasing came back a moment later, though. "Even if it does mean depriving the island of your butt in tights."
no subject
He finished his cupcake.
no subject
"Maybe you should listen to him," Kathy said casually, as if the idea of Dante in leather and straps didn't spawn all sorts of fluttery feelings. "He knows fashion. Though, personally, I'm more a sucker for guys in long coats and a sense of the dramatic."
no subject
He was already inclined to listen to Sparkle on that one. He just needed a good reason to splurge. And possibly money.
no subject
no subject
Really, Kathy. You could've seen that one coming.
no subject
Honestly, Dante, so should you.
no subject
Should he get another cupcake? ... Probably not. He'd run out. But they were good.
no subject

He reached out and poked Kathy gently in the ankle with his foot.
no subject
And lightly kicking at his foot in return.
