[He means things like toothbrush, toothpaste, whatever products she wants, etc. He can't really kiss her back from this angle without choking on his food, but he gives her a gentle all-around squeeze with his tentacles. Tentahug!]
[Tentahugs are second best hugs, and also incredibly perfect and appropriately comforting for the moment. She rubs a tentacle or two, just because she's never gotten tired of occasionally showing that whole part of him affection.]
There's some stuff I'd have to grab, but I can do that tomorrow on my way back.
[She still has to go to work, but at the rate she's going Nariko might call in for the first time in years. At least her appetite seems to be returning, that's always a good sign.]
[The end of a tentacle digs its way out of the mass to seek out her rubbing hand, affectionately wrapping around her wrist and giving her tiny sucker-kisses.]
Sounds good.
[And she's commuted to work from his place before, so she knows what she's in for in regards to that. Does she drive or use public transportation? Because he might have to straighten out her parking situation.]
[Man, she loves these lil' boxers and who knows why, they just seem to have a mind of their own in a strangely real sense, so maybe they're kind of endearing as a result. That, or she's just self-absorbed enough to adore any kind of positive reception, no matter the source. ... It's probably both. The one around her wrist gets a few kisses, though, before she strokes it kind of idly.]
It's not with me right now, but do they have guest parking here?
[Since he's farther away from her job she doesn't want to rely on the bus so she's gonna need it. She moves onto her second piece of flatbread pretty excitedly - yeah, she's in a way better mood now.]
They have guest parking, but since you want to stay longer than twenty-four hours, you'll want a long-term parking pass. Just have to fill out some paperwork for you.
[He turns his head and unravels a tentacle from her to reach across the kitchen and pull open a drawer, rifling through it a little before pulling out a notepad and a pen. Boxer brings it back and "hands" them out to her.]
I'll need the number and make-model of your car.
[He's so glad to see her feeling a little bit better. They really do feed off of each other, don't they?]
The complications of apartment living. If it costs anything just let me know, okay?
[But she isn't really upset about it, and she holds her last bite of flatbread in her mouth while she writes, she's got all the details memorized anyway, so might as well get it over with.] I almost feel like this is a step beneath buying a dog.
[It's kind of an idle joke to make as she hands the pad and pen back, and then shifts a little to sit sideways, that makes it a lot easier to kiss him.] You do realize that as soon as you're done, we're putting that couch to use and laying on it, right?
Pfft. It's, like, two bucks. Covers printing the damn thing, probably.
[He stares at the notepad for a second when he takes it back from her, trying to decide where he wants to keep it so he'll remember where it is. In the end, though, he just places it on the kitchen table. Good enough place as any.]
I do like dogs. [Don't even suggest it, Nariko.
He starts on his third piece of flatbread.]
Oh, that's good. I was starting to think the only reason I bought that couch was to have sex on it. [Not...really.] You wanna watch or play anything?
I'll give you two dollars worth of kisses on top of the usual, then! [So basically she has a conveniently thin excuse to her usual, affectionate self. And ... Huh, she's not entirely sure why but she kind of thought he might not like having a pet all that much, so it's a surprise to hear. But they're both incredibly busy and don't have time for something like that sooo, yeah! Not going to happen even if she'd really love to have one.]
Look, to be fair that's still a magic sex couch, let's not rule that out entirely. [She'll never get over how big it is, if she sits on it by herself she'd probably get lost in the thing!]
You were playing something when I got here, right? Don't let me interrupt you.
[He seemed like he was having fun, and while she doesn't enjoy video games too much she's perfectly fine with watching and enjoying her drink.
She might actually get around to talking about something important, too, once they're both moderately relaxed.]
Ah, jeez. How many is that? What's the going rate for kisses these days?
[He has pets! His fish are pets!
He has another slice of Jan's--it'll probably be a while until they make it to the couch, given how much he eats and the rate at which he eats it. But he's super comfy for her, a big muscle and tentacle seat that she has plenty of room to stretch out.]
Yeah, just--an older Legend of Zaida game that I never got around to beating...
[He's no professional gamer but if she really doesn't mind watching...]
Three small ones to last no longer than eight seconds, and one big one that either includes tongue or a full minute.
[At least she's specific. And he is very, very comfy, pretty much always has been.] I never imagined you were the gaming type.
[She hums a little pleasantly and tucks her head under his chin, carefully though, she's got a much better understanding of his sensitive anatomy and all that.] Hey.
[There's no easy way to get into it.] You're really great, you know that?
[Because he is.] I don't think I've known anyone who can cheer me up so damn easily, just by existing.
Man. Inflation's been rough on the kissing industry.
[Very specific.]
I...happen to play games every so often. Does that make me a 'type'?
[Is this a good thing or a bad thi---oh, apparently it's a good thing. In response to her display of affection, his tentacles squeeze her legs gently. Boxer's all smiles.]
And here I thought you were here to cheer me up! [He leans in and gives her a few kisses in her hairline.]
That's the thing, I am supposed to be here cheering you up.
[So, yes, she does. But it feels incredibly selfish to get into right now, and this isn't a quiet way of asking for validation to talk about it anyway. Boxer's got enough on his plate.]
No, [That's not a funny topic and yet she ends up laughing.] seriously though, hats off to my birth control for withstanding the onslaught.
[She has no idea what she's going to do for the week it has to stay out but, uh, that's another conversation?] I swear you almost got through a few times there.
[See, this thing she's doing? It's called deflecting.]
[He gets a little snort out of her. This comfort-by-banter thing is working, namely because no one has really tried it yet, so there's no pre-made defense.]
If you actually pull it off, I'll have a law suit on my hands! I didn't go through the effort of getting it put in for it to fail under any circumstance.
[Although to be fair to most doctor's none of them could really plan for kraken boyfriend sex, which is pretty rough and tumble.]
No, nothing related to that, not that I enjoy those kinds of spooks very much.
[If Boxer had meant to pull her out of the doom and gloom of her own past and the overall situation then, wow, he pulled it off in huge spades judging by her shocked expression.]
No, I wouldn't! [And yet she bites her lip to keep a rather telling smile off of her face. That's not the kind of thing that should actually turn her on and yet it pretty much always has.] I'd be huge and moody and probably end up with triplets, if I've inherited the ridiculous fertility of every woman on my father's side of the family.
[Which, y'know, she has!]
It's bad enough that the first one apparently wasn't strong enough.
[So for as unsettling as it was? Yes, she's already had an Event concerning all that.]
[He leans off to the side, eyes still trained on her midsection and making a big show of how he's imagining the bump on her that would come from carrying around such a big load.
He wouldn't do it if the idea had really horrified her, but he's gotten pretty good at reading her expressions even when she tries to hide them.]
[Boxer is getting the girlfriend Look. The one that either means he's about to be reprimanded or applauded for something, the result will depend very heavily on how he answers the next question:]
Are you just teasing me again?
[Because .. If he's not ... Then ... It might not be so bad. Maybe.]
[But. Okay. That was a passable answer. You're now allowed to let your imagination go at its full speed, Boxer, not that her approval would really stop him one way or another.]
There'd be something else involved with that extra curve, you know.
[Namely the live being that would be incubating in there.]
[Mostly because she was watching his reaction to that particular aspect of it.]
Mm.
[What a middling response though, it could mean an awful lot of things at once, so there's no conclusive result!! Oh well. She settles back against him and ... Apparently doesn't feel the need to say anything else just yet! It's something that happens at times, though it doesn't mean she's without anything to say.]

Yeah, he knows she's deflecting. But he figures he'll play along to steep her in a little comfort with their banter.]

[He's not, actually, he's just joking around.]
Something gave you a spook?

[Don't. Don't think about how fun the challenge would be to try to pull it out. Ew. Because that would be agonizing for Nariko.]
You wouldn't have any scares with that, would you? Still...
[He looks down at her midsection.]
You'd look so hot knocked up.

No, I wouldn't! [And yet she bites her lip to keep a rather telling smile off of her face.

I mean--I want a family. Really do. But it seems irresponsible to start one just to live out a fetish.
[And then he realizes...]
Don't even know if we can breed, now that I think about it.
