It's Just Fine Mansion on Phoenix Way, Tuesday

[newroutines]

Apparently people buying each other furniture for Christmas gifts was a thing, now? Or maybe it was just one or two rich folks with good taste. Mike really wasn't sure, and he really didn't care, either, about the particulars. All that mattered that he had projects happening in both his workspaces right now; both on the mainland as well as here at home.

So he was working on some chairs out of driftwood.

Just your regular Tuesday at the Lane household.

[ooc: Mostly for that one gal who knows who she is, but open chronologically before she shows up, too.]

She'd live.

When she finally did pull back, she stayed close. "You are definitely not getting back to work for a while," she said. "In case you didn't know."

Mike chuckled. "Aw, but I have deadlines."

He was kidding! Mostly. His deadlines weren't approaching that fast, anyway.

"That mean you have other plans for me, huh?"

"Well, there's going to be all the sex," Brooke said helpfully. "And then after that, if you reeeally need to work, maybe I can help. Like... I know nothing about chairs. I can hand you tools and keep you company in very little clothing?"

She was so helpful. And for all that helpfulness, he was now going to try and pick her up. Becaue with words like that, they weren't going to be sticking by the front door all day.

"Deal."

As if there'd been a question about him somehow not agreeing with what she'd said.

Brooke was more than willing to let him pick her up, since of course it let her get closer. "This is my best decision ever."

[newroutines]

She was definitely getting closer, seeing as he was trying to get her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist. He was strong enough to hold her up!

And also had zero shame.

"Yeah, I think so too."

Of course, he knew basically nothing about her past decisions. But they could work on that later.
