I need you around / Blueberry kisses
1] Sometime after dinner, if you're passing by the lounge you might hear the angry and joyous cries of one very excitable blonde Siberian. Adette had a heavy headset on over her eyes, and controller paddles in each hand from the computer game Gainer and Cynthia where always playing. Only, if her shouts where any indication she wasn't doing to hot either.
When the match finally ended she pulled off the headset with an angry jerk, cursing under her breath a little- only she bit her lip when she found out someone was standing there!
"Oh, I didn't know you where there! Sorry you had to see that."
2] With his Overman back together again, and her wounds healed Adette couldn't be happier. Though it was late, long past midnight, she could be found in the hanger polishing the fresh paint on the Overcoat of the Power Golame, she sang to herself as she worked, unabrashed, she sang out with joy, her high voice bouncing off every metal surface. She paused only to nip a shot from her flask every now and then, and her song always continued on.
"I told you baby, I'd love you maybe. But you stopped the clock the second time arounnddddd~ I need you arrrounndddd."

"I suppose we do...Our peoples are depending on us to set an example. If we cannot manage at least cordiality, then what hope do they have?" He said, grasping the other end of her olive branch.

Adette smirked softly, and tucked her rag into the back pocket of her coveralls. It was almost funny to see how hurt he was.
" Maybe we do and maybe we don't. We already did right by them as far as I'm concerned. Our people got what they wanted, and couldn't be happier for it, and yet this thing that existed between us is what has been left in ruin." She wouldn't deny the cause of it where her own feelings, feelings she had given up on him understanding.
" I did try to get you in bed with me, back in Siberia. I wanted to taste the real you one last time, but you just of blew me off." She shrugged, " I probably deserved that anyways. I had though that was the end of it. I haven't been avoiding you so much as I've been avoiding everyone. After everything that happened I was feel a bit raw, ya know?"

In other words, his pride had not allowed him. He couldn't slink off with her, into her childhood house after she'd wounded him. Not after he'd told her so many secrets.
Poor Jin. They might have liked each other under different circumstances.
"Everyone, though? Do you really think you can sustain that, quineg? Or is it only until you have...built your armor back up?"
He raised his eyebrow and returned her smirk. He suspected that had to be partially a lie. There was one person he knew she wouldn't be avoiding.
no subject
The fact that he even said that name wounded Adette deeply, she flinched back, unable to hide how much it hurt to even hear.
"It had alot to to do with alot of different things. At first I though it would be better to shut the whole world away, after all what I did to Yasuba, and what he did to me. I was certain to do again and again, and even now the truth of that shows." Adette sighed a little, he knew just where to hit her to make it hurt didn't he?
"I didn't have the courage to face any of you, so I hid. I hid in my room until I found the drive to solider on again, until I was completely sure of what I wanted with my own life. The fact that I had to think so long about it should be a credit to your allure, Resnick. I wanted to love you... I really did, it was so easy, and welcome, like sleeping in on a Sunday." She laughed a little, what a funny analogy to have right now.
"But in the end, after all that time alone, I came back to the same answer again and again, and I knew what I had to do. At least I was honest about it."
no subject
"And I would have learned how with you. Perhaps we could have found a middle ground between our ways and yours. But that is over and done with. The door is closed."
He had a feeling he knew the answer but he had to hear it from her anyway: "And what was the answer?"
no subject
"That freedom only meant missing him." She knew it would sting him to hear it, but shielding him from it any longer would only be cruel. "Every breath was cold, every road seemed to lead no where, every question came to one answer. Unwaveringly, even when I had someone so perfect in front of me, I could only think Micheal. I have been a hero now, I have done great deeds, there is no shame in wanting something after this. I feared it would be a prison at first, but now I long for empty, boring days, and a quiet life away from all this fighting. Somewhere I can cook, and smile, and be content for the rest of my days." She found her mouth running away with itself, the vodka she had been sipping was rushing through her veins as her heart thudded in her chest. How do you tell someone, 'you're wonderful and I love you, but I love someone else more.'
" I guess I should apologize after all, you tried to give me the world, and still I would not have it. Just because it's not your I'm standing beside now, doesn't mean I don't treasure the time we spent together. I shall never forget that day in the arctic for as long as I live."
no subject
"I told you there is nothing you need to offer surkai for. I still think the idea is a stupid one, one that does sound like making yourself a bondsman. But Micheal Wilson is a good, honorable man. If one had to be so bonded to someone, he is a fine choice."
His old, arrogant grin returned and he took a step forward.
"One last kiss. Then you should go to him and be as happy with each other as the Great Father and Jennifer Winson."
no subject
It felt good to see him smile again, Adette couldn't help but smile back.
"A kiss?" Adette wasn't sure if this was a good idea, but if it would salvage their friendship she would do it. "Geeze, what an old fashion request! I should have expected that from you." Adette shook her head, and laughed a little. But it mean they could get over this, it would be better for everyone. When they where in sync on the battlefield they where unstoppable, skills like that matter above all else in a place like this.
"Alright. If that's all you want." Adette closed the space between them in two long stride, and clasp her hands behind her back as she leaned in.

"Aff. A good memento. I will see you later then...trothkin."
no subject
"Later then. I have to finish up waxing here, but I'm around." Adette's cheeks flushed as a sense of relief and renewed joy rushed through her. Now everything was truly alright, and it felt good.
she watched him go, smirking a little to herself, before she turned back to her work. The singing went on, but now it was a different song tune she filled the hallow walls with, her voice leaped and jumped along it's notes as her arms worked in careful circles to make the the Power Golame's beige coat shine.
"And I'll be happy for you If you can be happy for me" She took a long drink of her flask, polishing off the rest of it contents easily. She hardly lost a beat in either her work or her singing. "Circles and triangles..."
Adette let her self reminisce for a moment, one last time, to savor the warmth he had shown her. Even as his scent still lingered in her nose, and his warmth a revived memory burning brightly, but it was no desire, but reverberations of the joy they shared not so very along ago. The football game, and then laying naked in his arms afterward. The bite marks, and the way he liked to twirl her hair in those soft tender moments. The way he felt to fight beside him, when they stood shoulder to shoulder against the Railway... and won. The night in the domepoli she had wanted him for selfish reasons. Adette knew it was becasue she wanted one last taste of that perfection, it had not been out of charity.
And when the floor of memories dwindled, and she found herself back in the present, Adette was glad things where fixed, mostly between them. She had heard he and Micheal had become good friends, it would be nice if the three of them could comfortably occupy the same room, or battle field. And now it seemed like a very real situation and that made Adette much happier than she expected it would.
Now all Adette had to deal with was Kejinan.
