[ her adult-baby is adorable, and mako has to smile, pulling him towards her because he's just the sweetest. ]

I didn't say right now, did I? You'll be inconsolable if I have to separate you two for more than ten minutes.

Hey — I went out for two hours!

[ it's just... the prospect of no yancy day-in and day-out...

raleigh might cry. but he also might let himself be pulled into mako and comforted and soothed like a gigantic toddler but who can blame him, he spends all his time with one! ]

[fissions]

And wasn't that the longest two hours of your life?

[ There, there. Let mommy make you feel better. She's a adept hand at soothing him and her other baby, apparently :| And she might also be reaching out for his coffee. ]

Did you get that for me?

[regroup]

[ oh hell no, lady.

now raleigh's twisting out of her grasp, and hastily retreating with his coffee — taking a huge sip to show her whose coffee was whose. ]

I know someone brought an espresso machine into your office last Christmas, you can get your own coffee at work.

[ omg foiled 8(

Mako makes a soft, disappointed noise when Raleigh wises up to her sneakiness and takes a good swig of his coffee in a display of caffeine-inspired dominance. ]

But what if I want some coffee now?

[regroup]

Then you can use our coffee pot. [ which is hella broken and might electrocute her. ] Or you can go get your own.

[fissions]

[ Mako gives him a very impressive (if she could say so herself) scowl. ]

You broke our coffee pot!

[regroup]

It was faulty when we bought it, I swear! There's just no warranty.

[ he looked. he looked so many times

[fissions]

[ Ugh, now she's got to look for those instant coffee packets. She's rooting around in there, searching through little tins. ]

We should go shopping again.

[regroup]

We should upgrade to an espresso machine.

[ and he's going to be admiring her butt while she looks. ]

[fissions]

[ is this why you put the containers on the bottom shelf, because Mako's bending over further to reach for it, only half-listening. ]

What's wrong with a coffeepot?

[regroup]

[ NO.





...maybe. ]

You can't make a kickass hot chocolate in a coffee pot.

[fissions]

[ ...

pervert.

that, though, gets Mako's full attention immediately -- she's a sucker for hot chocolate, or actually, for any kind of chocolate. WHY DID SHE NOT KNOW THIS. ]

You can make hot chocolate in an espresso machine?

[regroup]

[ raleigh shrugs casually, knowing he's won this round. the second hot chocolate was mentioned, it was over. ]

I mean, yeah. How hard would it be to figure out how to make work?

[fissions]

[ Mako eyes him bleakly. ]

Famous last words. Do you remember what happened to the washing machine?

[regroup]

I am convinced that was an electrical problem.

[ and thus not his fault ]
