12/12/2024 at 14:57:09 CSTHe groans the second she hangs up. Is he stupid? Keen to repeat his own mistakes? I don't want to ruin this for her. But that's no excuse to hide something from her when he just encouraged her to share the exact same sort of difficult-but-important things with him. Stupid, stupid, stupid. For a second he considers calling his Pop, but honestly, he doesn't need another person telling him how he fucked up. He knows. She'll be back in 48 hours.

No qualifications. And it's not exactly big tech money no matter what." Pierre de Roulle probably spent more on his shoes than Archie got in his monthly take-home pay. "Even if I finish this program, it's to be an animal rehabber, not a domestics vet. I'll be knee deep in displacer beasts and axebeaks for the rest of my career, because it's what I love doing, but it's not exactly a mother-in-law's dream." Mediocre pay, often dangerous conditions, no real prospects for career progression... No, he can easily see why even a loving mother would be disquieted by his choice of careers.

He doesn't deserve to hear about other people's ignorant opinions of him. It doesn't help that she can hear the disappointment and resignation it in his voice as well.

How could you not acknowledge someone as brilliant as Rhiannon for ten years if you had the privilege of having her in your life? Ignorant shit. Given the pivot to Rhiannon's mother deciding Pete was a better prospect, he can guess. "Was it the being a tiefling or the unskilled manual labor that was the sticking point?" he asks, dreading the answer. At least the second one he agrees with. Can see the logic in. Everyone wants a stable financial prospect for their children. He isn't one, and won't be, at least not for a long time yet. Rhiannon does deserve better. If it's plain racism, well, at least he'll feel better silently hoping it's another ten years before Rhiannon speaks to her again, at the least.

"First she started by asking me a ton of personal questions about my life. What do you say to someone who hasn't acknowledged you or your birthday for the last 10 years? Anyway, I told her a brief bit and gushed about you, of course. And, of course, she said some ignorant shit." "So then Pete interrupted me for a moment to tell me our prototype was off the line and ready for more work. She overheard Pete's voice and started asking all sorts of questions about him. What does he look like? What does he smell like? Weird, but, uh, ok. What kind of brand of shoes he wore, superficial nonsense." She pauses and there is the sound of a chair scraping the floor as she moves to somewhere more private. "Then she said I should try and go after Pete. Baby trap him or whatever I had to do since he was this brilliant CEO and had a secure future. So I told her off naturally and ended the phone call. But it just...infuriates me that she thinks that's reasonable, ethical, or even permissible!" she hisses, at the end, irate once more.

What litte he knows about her mother... is rarely positive. He tries not to judge people he hasn't met too harshly, but he couldn't imagine ever leaving a child to be raised by a cousin. To feel unwanted, unmoored, unloved. He is... heavily biased. "Love, if she said something to upset you... I don't care if she's your mother, you don't have to put up with that. Or reply, for that matter."

That was just another engineer letting me know they were starting up the lathe.” There’s a pause and then a groan. “My mom just texted me, just think about what I said, I’m only being practical. This is why I don’t talk to you, mom,” she mutters petulantly.

But she doesn't understand his thieving and general tech antics. And as someone who often has to fix, repair, or reappropriate the stolen tech to the original owner, she's left cleaning up the mess. So in short, she's not thrilled with him. "How's your arm?" She's deflecting again, hoping he won't ask.

He’ll never be able to look at ferrets the same way. “I’m not sure what’s up, but I hope he’s okay. And I hope he comes to visit Rabbit, at least. The poor boy misses his person.” Aspen and Mitch weren’t adequate substitutes, no matter how many extra carrots they fed him.

He left his horse behind, too.” Archie’s pretty sure Corvid likes that horse more than any people. “No one knows exactly what happens, so there’s a million rumors, of course. I think Mitch, remember Mitch? I think she’s involved, somehow. Or maybe she’s just Corvid’s girlfriend. Hard to tell.” It’s really none of his business, either, but the combination of decent hearing and how loud gossipers can be means he absorbs a decent amount without trying.

He doesn't have the goddamn time for it. So he puts it out of his mind unless he's changing the dressing or something presses against the oversensitive skin. Isn't the increased core body temperature of Asmodean tieflings supposed to make them more resistant to infections? Apparently not. He's getting the stitches taken out today. He's preparing for the medical scolding of his life in the process, and probably a similar one from Rhiannon when she gets back. He's almost looking forward to the second one. At least that will mean she's back, in one piece, and that she cares.

11/16/2024 at 17:34:53 CST"Nah, I think I prefer you in nothing at all." They do have plans, but he can have one kiss, right? Archie drops to his knees at the side of the bed, and gently strokes her face from temple to jaw, his fingertips just barely skimming the sensitive shell of her ear. "I love the sight of you in my bed. Please, feel free to occupy it any time you like, in any state of dress."

11/16/2024 at 16:17:07 CSTShe turns her head to the side to smirk at him coyly, "I can keep them on if you're into that~" Ok she knew she was a horny one, but she's never quite felt this insatiable or confident. Archie's appreciation of her natural state of being makes her feel sexy, wanted.

11/16/2024 at 16:11:43 CSTHe emerges clean, dressed and with his hair tied back to keep it out of the way. The sight of Rhiannon collapsed into his bed, hugging his pillow, is absurdly endearing. "You know, when I pictured you in my bed, hiking boots somehow weren't involved," Archie teases, poking at her ankle. "But, I mean, I'm always open to a change of plans."

11/16/2024 at 15:07:01 CSTHe ducks into the bathroom and she wanders over to look out of the window at the view. Then at his desk, his schedule which she takes a picture of with her phone and throws into their chat with a 'this is every week?' so she knows he's not stalking him or being weird. She looks at the picture of him with his three parents and feels a longing she has only felt a few times before. She doesn't have anything really to give him like this...just herself...and a broken mess of a family. She pushes the thoughts away with a sigh. Then she flops down on his bed, face first into his pillow, snorting pure Archie smell. She's weird like that.

11/16/2024 at 14:57:00 CST"Yeah? Yours is a lot more, well, you. This is mostly just a place to crash." He quickly grabs a set of clothes much like what he's already wearing, and heads for the tiny attached bathroom. "I'll be right back, love." Archie pecks her cheek in farewell, leaving her to explore if she wants. He could afford an off campus apartment if he wanted one, something small at least, but it had just never seemed important. Staff housing is cheaper and more convenient. Rhiannon might be rapidly changing those priorities. She's been your girlfriend for less than 24 hours, get a grip.

11/16/2024 at 14:39:11 CSTShe hovers in the corner at the door taking in everything. The pictures of his family, of Daisy the truck, of him and Kevin. The room smells of him and she breathes deep. It's not hard to feel enveloped since she's also wearing the flannel he left on the couch – nicked and now hers unless... Nope, no unless. Stay here in the moment, girl. "I like your room. It's yours."

11/16/2024 at 14:20:03 CST"Okay, so, fair warning, it really isn't anything fancy," Archie reiterates at the threshold of his small, dull room. It's functional, and that's about it. He much prefers Rhiannon's room already. "Give me a minute to grab a change of clothes and my hiking boots and I'll be right with you, I promise."

11/03/2024 at 15:14:07 CSTHis breath catches at the short, straightforward message. Archie's still struggling to believe she responded to his messages at all. Yes, Petal's facial expressions are hilarious, but he is... not. He taps out a quick reply and gives himself ten seconds to calm down before he starts on his morning routine.

Archie's space is small, well-worn, and almost spartan. It's pretty obvious he mostly uses it as a place to sleep, and sometimes do what work that's necessary to do at a desk, rather than a space to truly *live*. Still, it's kept relatively clean and tidy, especially for a single adult man.
