Thanatos and Orpheus // Private Thread for the Win

[itsnotaleash]

Orpheus - ... Orpheus, stop ignoring me like that! [Oh, right. Proceeds to move one of Orpheus' headphones out of his otherwise deaf ears. So he can actually hear Thanatos.]

Come on, you need to get out more often! You've been in the Velvet Library for days now... I didn't create the pocket dimension for you to become a complete recluse like this.

Also, I'll have a lemonade with lots of sugar! Hehe, especially if it's mixed by you. [SPARKLESPARKLE. Waves bye to the waitress as she walks away with their orders.]

[THEN AS IF THAT TOTALLY DIDN'T HAPPEN -] Not my ribs, that would hurt...

[clockstopped]

[As if you need any more sugar in your system guhhh] That's the point.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

[Rubs the back of his head.] ... It would still hurt!

[clockstopped]

[Yaaaaawn.] Like I said - that's the point.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

So cruel, Orpheus...

[clockstopped]

[Shrug. Unsympathetic as ever. Oh hells yes the coffee's here *A*]

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

[Thanks the waitress by way of making her blush. Then once she scurries off, Thanatos drinks his lemonade. Mm, delicious sugar slowly coagulating at the bottom of the glass...!]

[clockstopped]

[Stare. Idiot. Then just goes to drinking his coffee in silence, staring at the table, even if it's more looking through it than directly focusing on anything in particular.]

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

[Stirs his lemonade with the straw.] Come on, Orpheus... Cheer up!

[clockstopped]

[Look up slightly. Blink. .... ] Huh?

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

... Sorry, you just looked more out of it than usual.

[clockstopped]

... I did? [Still is actually. Just not as bad as three seconds ago.] Sorry, then.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

It's all right. [Sets a hand over his chest.] It just means I have to try harder to cheer you up.

[clockstopped]

I don't need cheering up.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

[Drapes his upper body on the table and closes his eyes.] I suppose the pancakes will do that.

[clockstopped]

[Sips coffee, deadpan through the bitterness, before propping his head in one hand, taking the unused spoon that came with it - sugar is for sissies - and prodding him in the head.] Stop worrying so much.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

[Opens an eye as he's prodded to the head with a spoon.] I already told you this... I can't stop worrying about you.

[clockstopped]

I mean about small things. [Like me being half-asleep and you taking it as my being depressed. Prod prod. :|]

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

[Lazily lifts his hand and swats at the spoon.] I just want you to be happy, Orpheus.

[clockstopped]

[Pulls away until the hand goes back down. Wait. Resume prodding.] It's silly to want something you already have.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

[Lifts his hand to resume swatting at the spoon - Except he jolts up right after what Orpheus says.] So you're admitting that you're happy?

[clockstopped]

[Jerks back the moment he bolts upright, spoon falling to a clatter on the table. Fast movements ffffff-] Just because I don't have as much energy as you to show it off doesn't mean I'm not happy.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

[Takes the spoon off of the table and wiggles it towards Orpheus' face.] I know that! ... That's not what I'm talking about.

[Sets the spoon down with a soft clank.] I was worried you were falling asleep more often because of my failure to figure anything out about ... Well, you know...

[clockstopped]

[Leans back against the booth, a fourth out of too much effort to keep sitting upright and the other three-fourths in "get that spoon out of my face it was in your overly-gelled hair"] Like I'd fall asleep for two weeks on end willingly.

[I mean, three days? Totally cool bro. But once you start going into weeks? That starts to get just a taaaaaad bit worrisome.]

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

As long as you're not depressed because of me, Orpheus... [Sprawls his upper body back onto the table.]
