Engage? Make it So! (Kadrak)

As I woke up, something cawed outside. Probably a bird or something like that. As long as it didn't wake up Kadrak, it was okay. I smiled as I caught sight of her mumbling sleepily and moving around. She's so damn adorable! I pulled her close to my chest as gently as I could, trying to let her sleep. After all, she'd be waking up with the same hangover I was.​
I gently put her hand on mine, dropped my head back onto my pillow, and smiled as I watched her chest rise and fall. The ring box in the pocket of my jacket from last night seemed to be calling out to me. Not time yet, though... Maybe tonight...​

One would think that after receiving hangovers for a more than sufficient amount of time that one's body would soon become at least partially resistant to the detriments such a thing brought on. After all, that was traditionally how most things functioned, and it only seemed logical to assume the same for an alcohol-induced headache. Apparently that wasn't the case, because Kadrak's head was still pounding as it so often did after a night out with the one and only [member="Zatten Black"]. But it was nothing unusual, and so she was somewhat adjusted to functioning just the same as usual.

By the time he shifted position she was already more or less half-awake, though the headache she was currently nursing made it more difficult to entirely register her surroundings. A sleepy murmur made its way past her lips, but even she wasn't entirely certain just what she had been trying to communicate. Slowly she rolled over to face him, reaching up with one hand to rub some of the sleep from her eyes, yawning quietly. No words were spoken yet, and for a moment she settled for nuzzling up against his chest, finding solace in his presence alone.

"Remind me to stop at two or three the next time. Hangovers aren't really my thing." Her voice was quiet and still very much sleep-riddled, but at least she was awake now. Sort of. With eyes still half-closed she stretched up to press a kiss to his lips, smiling as she did so. "Sometime we should just have a night in. I wouldn't mind staying like this for a night or two. No one would get shot or swung at, anyway." Of course, that was commonplace enough in their typical routine. If no fights broke out it was considered a slow night.

"What's in the cards today, then? We busy?"
 
"Nothing important for today. We've got this hotel room for something like a week, so there's plenty of time to run around when we're not hung over. Besides, it might be nice to stay in bed longer."​
I smiled at Kadrak as I spoke. She seemed just as happy as me that we were here, lying in bed together. A gentle squeeze from my arms, and I pulled her up on top of me so we were at eye level.​
"We could watch holoflicks on the couch later, though. And eat breakfast at noon. I'd be just as comfy out there."​

A slow, sleepy grin spread across her face. Now that didn't sound like too bad of an idea. "What's up with you?" That wasn't to say that Kadrak minded the idea of the couple simply spending time together, but he was never quite so on board with the idea. Something was different, and she didn't need to be Force sensitive to notice. "I mean, I'm not complaining, but you're usually always busy. Did everybody decide to leave you alone for once in your life?" That was a half-serious inquiry, given that he always seemed to have someone or something on his back.

When they were tangled up in bed together nothing else mattered, and she wasn't about to raise any real objection to spending another few minutes like this. It meant less interruptions and more time to just talk, both things being sparse in their lives given what passed for hobbies for the both of them. To have a day off was a rare commodity, and one she wanted to take full advantage of. In this scenario that meant not doing much at all. What most saw as a waste of time she saw as an opportunity to simply exist and not worry about anything more than that.

"You have that look in your eye again." Clumsily she kissed him again, teeth scraping along his lower lip. "The one that mean you're up to something else. Something you don't want to tell me about yet." She had been with him long enough to know what every micro-expression meant or hinted at, right down to what thoughts were processing behind his crimson-tinted eyes. No ethereal talents were necessary when she could read him like a book most times regardless. "So are you gonna tell me, or do I have to wait around to find out?"
