...Wait so I'm supposed to do what with this?

I guess I leave a message.

Hey, this is Rileyable Riley. Leave a message.

So does that work?




[ooc: Leave a message for her!]

[tonsofpun]

[The reply starts to form, before the 'waiting' signal just continues. It's as if Ellie had started to answer, and then just... doesn't finish. It takes several minutes for the next message to come through.]

[tonsofpun]

[Months pass. Ellie stays gone, until the day Riley's bracelet lights up with a text.]

what kind of shark would you meet in a bank

[text]

[everysecond]

girl that is so old school.

loan shark.

and where the fuck are you?

[So she can tackle your ass to the ground.]

[text]

[tonsofpun]

fuckdamn it REALLY I spent this whole walk trying to think of one

close. also in serious need of a cheeseburger

also might have missed you a little

[text]

[everysecond]

well i was going to treat you to the damn burger but if you only missed me a little then fuck that

so i'll cover the fries

also i can see you

[The only reason she hasn't tackled you is because she's using her awesome Assassin skills for stalking bwahahaha. Using badass skills to stalk your girlfriend then tell her you can see her when you know she can't see you. What a good way to use them.]

[tonsofpun]

[Ellie pauses to look all around her, turning in a slow circle before going back to typing.]

okay you fucking creeper where are you

[everysecond]

[She springs out into the open right behind Ellie and grabs her sides.]

BOO!

[tonsofpun]

[Ellie squeaks, and smacks her, hard.]

You dick!

[everysecond]

[That just makes her laugh as she throws back her hood to show her face.]

I so got you! You squeaked!

[tonsofpun]

I did not squeak!

[She punches her again, but the smile's starting to show through the indignation, and soon she's grinning, reaching out to grip the side of Riley's hood.]

Hey, nice threads...

[Ellie pulls the hood down over the top of Riley's face again, holding it in place with one hands. Before Riley can get it off, she leans up and kisses her on the mouth.]

[everysecond]

[That goes from totally ridic to...

Woah. So smooth. She freezes up, eyes wide in shock. And then she's leaning into it because damn it all she's missed her girl so badly.]

[tonsofpun]

[Ellie, of course, ruins it by starting to smile into the kiss, ending up pulling back to laugh out loud.]

Now I know how to shut you up.

[She pulls up the edge of the hood, enough to see Riley's eyes.]

Hey.

[everysecond]

Oh shut up.

[Her already dark skin is flushed as she scratches her cheek then gives her a shove.]

So, you wanted a burger. Right?

[tonsofpun]

With cheese, and no pickles. No pickles ever again.

[Ellie shoves her back, then reaches out to grip her hand, clinging tightly. For a second she hesitates, trying very hard to be cool, but then she steps close and practically throws herself against Riley, hugging her hard.]

[everysecond]

Oh is that all?

[She laughs then hugs her back before pulling back with one of her hands in her own to pull her along.]

You gotta try this place over here. It opened up after you left and it's fucking amazing!

[tonsofpun]

Who's running it?

[Ellie catches up, gripping Riley's hand like she won't let go for hours, daring her to pry her off.]

And I hope we get a discount, 'cause I'm broke.
