Oh the weather outside is frightful...

☀THE WARM AND TOASTY MEME☀
The situation: It is dreadfully cold. Think 'ice cave where all those slash fics are set'.
The goal: Keep each other warm tonight!

☀ STEP ONE: Comment with your characters. One comment for each character.
☀ STEP TWO: Other people reply to your characters.
☀ STEP THREE: Both participants are aware that they should/must keep nice and warm. To do that, you need to bundle up nice and closely, however grudgingly. No, killing your threadmate and cuddling the body doesn't count.
☀ STEP FOUR: Keep 'em warm! Hot cocoa, hot coffee, hot tea, hot mustard, or other suitably warming beverages will be provided if you cooperate.
☀ STEP FIVE: Lulz ensue!

((Basically just a winter-themed cuddle meme, with evil ideas from Shae and Col. Add some cuddle urges in the air if your characters won't otherwise cooperate but you want them to.))

[Sigh. So tempting, so tempting...he's gonna look for any spies now. None. Good.]

I suppose not, and we trust each other, but...I worry about offending people. Perhaps too much.

[He'll look left, right, then shyly slide in beside her and start rubbing his hands for warmth.] Are you warm enough?

[voiceofserenity.livejournal.com]

You're not gonna offend. Don't think you could even if you tried.

[ She makes sure he has plenty of blanket as well before going back to staring at the heater. ]

For now, yeah. It'll be better once we get this gorram thing workin'.

[morphitudinous]

All right. I'll work quickly, promise.

[The cold is distracting but he manages to get his tools out! He's working, careful not to jostle her with stray elbows.]

The wind's worsening the chill. I sealed off what areas I could, but I couldn't get everything.

[Shivers and finds self unconsciously moving closer.]

Billy...

[ She sighs, and cuddles up close to keep him warm while he works. After several moments of watching him and looking over the heater she finally reaches out to pull his hands back under the blankets. She closes the blanket again before he has time to protest. ]

Not gonna get anywhere with it. Cold's gummin' it up.

[morphitudinous]

It'll be all right.

[And he tries, he really does, but she's right. The cuddling makes his face red right quick, and he's docile enough to let her guide him inside. He turns to face her sheepishly, carefully tugging his hands away and winding them in the cloth.]

Don't want your hands to freeze too.

Wouldn't be the first time. Had a time on Serenity, back home...lost life support 'n back-ups 'n everythin', and tryin' to work on the ship while you're bein' froze out...

[ She trails off, wrinkling her nose. Not the best thing to talk about right now. ]

Hardly the same problem here, though. Just gotta wait this one out, s'all.
