MCA #7 - After noon

[light_a_spark]

Having the day off, Roy was reading through a book on Earth weapons. His chess board was on the dining room table, set up already for a game that he intended to win. He would need his uniform to get cleaned after it got cake on it after all. For now, he was actually wearing slacks and a white shirt. He could do casual.

((Open for a certain delivery for now. Will open up for people to gawk later if they want. Open if you want to check out what all the moving around was!))

"I was hoping the wearing a miniskirt part was implied," he said cheekily.

"Were you?" Aly replied. "Guess you'd have to wait and see."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"It's worth it," Roy decided lightly.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"Without even knowing what kind of vengeance I may or may not wreak upon you?" she asked mischievously.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

He tilted his head, taking his time to consider her. "Yes," he finally decided. "I think it would be."

Aly didn't flush, especially not because of a look. That would be silly. So the slight pink tint? Definitely not blushing.

She looked down to study the board. "I'm just wondering if making all the men go shirtless would be a suitable parallel."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"I'm not asking anyone to walk around half naked," Roy argued. His grin had nothing to do with a certain blushing that wasn't happening.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"My legs are half my body," she pointed out instantly. "So you basically are."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"I suppose," he relented. "Then maybe it is. Even if wearing shorts would be more fair."

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"Hmmm," she pretended to consider. "Nope. Shirtless."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Are you saying that would be your one act you'll suffer the consequences for?" Roy asked curiously while moving his bishop on the board.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

Aly grinned. "Not what I said at all. Might be my revenge though."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"I already told you I'm not interested in other guys," Roy reminded her, deliberately misunderstanding.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"You think my revenge would be making you do boykissy?" She laughed and laughed. "Deadpool maybe?"

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Now he does not like me," Roy said, ignoring the laughing.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"Oh? Why not?" she asked.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"It was just a general impression," he waved the question off.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

She eyed the game then captured his pawn quickly.

"So what makes you thinks Wade's cranky at you?"

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Just a general impression," he repeated, raising an eyebrow at her. He still wasn't sure how to classify his conversation with the mercenary. "I usually know when someone doesn't like me." Not that the feeling was entirely one-sided.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"I have to tell you something," she said, smiling at him.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

He raised an eyebrow. "What's that?"

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"Wade's pretty much batshit insane," Aly said. "It may be a surprise given his general demeanor, but it's true."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

Roy considered Deadpool's behaviour at the wedding shower. "No, not exactly a surprise."

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

She threw him a wink. "Not a bad kind of insane though."

"Said the woman who was wearing cake. Again," he teased and moved his rook.
