Owner Pose
Stephanie Brown Stephanie Brown is asleep. She's lying on the bed in the lakehouse's bedroom. She managed to remove her shoes at the door, but otherwise she's still in her clothes. Socks on her feet, a pair of jeans on her legs. A knit shirt that is just the right amount of warmth for early May in Gotham.

Stephanie's head didn't quite make it to the pillows, and her feet are hanging out over the corner of the bed as she snoozes. Her bookbag is there on the floor beside the bed.
Dick Grayson     Dick comes into the house from the entrance to the annex below the house. He's just dressed in sweatpants and a t-shirt, usually a sign that he just changed out of his armor. When he steps out of the closet the first thing he sees is the sleeping Steph at least mostly on the bed. He chuckles quietly and pads across the room barefoot, head for the bathroom and a quick shower.

    Washing off the sweat and checking out a couple bruises on his torso, he grabs a towel and dries off, then ties it around his waist and steps back out into the bedroom. He steps over and sits on the bed, then says quietly "Hey there sleepy, have you been mixing school with too much patrolling again?"
Stephanie Brown By the time that Dick finishes his shower and returns to the bedroom, Stephanie... has not moved. Unless you count her lips parting just enough there might be a bead of drool in the corner of them on one side. Ew.

But hey if you love someone, a little sleep drool isn't all that bad is it?

His voice is enough to draw her from the clutches of sleep, though only gradually. That old Sandman has a bit of a hold on her, but eventually the pretty blue eyes flutter open, if still looking tired.

"Did I take my chemistry test yet?" she asks.

(Narrator: She did, after being up studying for it all night.)
Dick Grayson     "Well, I certainly hope so, considering how long you stayed up studying for it. Hopefully you managed to stay awake for it and only crashed once you got home. You have to remember to take it a little easy while you're in school, there's enough of us for patrols without you exhausting yourself."

    He turns to face her more directly and lets out a quiet hiss as one of his bruises twinges as he moves. "Not that it isn't busy as always out there, but we've got backup if needed."
Stephanie Brown Stephanie Brown drags herself with her arms to cross the short distance separating her from the original Boy Wonder, hugging herself to his lap and resting her head there on his thigh. "Those mooks aren't gonna beat up themselves," she says, the ending delayed by a yawn that Stephanie uses her fist to cover her mouth during.

Then she snuggles back down to him. "Howreyou" she slurs tiredly. "Catch a case or did you and your partner make it through the shift without one?" she asks, eyes closed.
Dick Grayson     Reaching down to stroke her hair once she starts using him as a pillow, he replies, "No case today, just had to take a little detour on the way home and deal with Killer Croc. Why he was rampaging through a supermarket I'll never know, but I managed to drive him off at least. Sometimes you really have to wonder what goes through a villain's head."

    Shaking his own he asks, "I think I should keep you awake long enough for you to eat something, since I'd be surprised if you remembered to eat at any point during the day. Can you think of anything quick that you're in the mood for?"
Stephanie Brown Stephanie draws a deep breath and lets it out. "You smell good," she murmurs. "Well, maybe he was running low on dish soap?" She keeps lying there for long enough that Dick might start to wonder if she'd dozed back off. But finally she lets out a sigh and makes herself it up, hands rubbing at her eyes. "Food... I'm not sure I did food," she says, reaching down a hand to her belly. "Yep, empty I think," she says, tapping on her stomach like that would be able to tell.

"What do we have? Any cold friend chicken?" she asks, reaching over a hand to rub up and down Dick's back.

    "I think so, but I'd have to check to be sure. I know for a fact there's leftover pizza and the remains of a takeout order of dumplings though." He leans into the rub for a moment, enjoying her touch before standing and turning around to lean down and kiss her lightly.

    He steps over to the dresser and extracts a pair of boxers that he swaps the towel for then heads for the door, holding his hand out to her as he passes. "Let's take a quick trip through the fridge so we can see what's in there."
Stephanie Brown Stephanie Brown turns her face up towards Dick to gladly take the kiss he offers, and then she works her way back to her feet. She stubs her toe on her bookbag that's lying there at the foot of the bed, muttering a few soft obscenities that would probably draw a language correction if she were on Avengers comms.

The stubbing stops hurting soon enough though. "Mmm, pizza," she murmurs, waiting for Dick to get dressed and then slipping her hand into his as they head out to raid the fridge.
Dick Grayson     It's only a couple steps to reach the kitchen, and then Dick opens the fridge and starts browsing. "Pizza, dumplings, ah, there is still some chicken in here. We can heat something up or make sandwiches of various types." He looks around the spacious refrigerator, adding "I'm pretty sure Alfred restocks this thing when we're not around. Not that I mind, of course. One less thing to worry about."

    He waves at the shelves of food and says "Go for it, pick something you want and we'll get it warmed up. Or made into a sandwich. Or otherwise made ready to eat."
Stephanie Brown Stephanie Brown goes for two sodas for them while Dick is getting a first look at the fridge, apparently wanting the caffeine. "Oh, the pizza definitely," she says, moving over to Dick and going up on her toes to nuzzle a little kiss to his cheek.

Then she moves over to take a seat, the soda can making that distinctive sound as she opens it. "I had a hit on a search today, before class. Just a little one, but still. One of dad's old accomplices arriving in town. I thought I'd check things out later. After, you know, sleep."
Dick Grayson     Taking the pizza out, he heads over to the counter where an industrial sized toaster oven awaits. He puts two slices on the tray and turns it on, then turns to lean against the counter and face her. "Yeah, definitely after a good night's sleep. Can't afford to be falling asleep while gargoyle lurking, you might fall off." The toaster oven dings so he grabs a plate and pot holder, taking the tray out and sliding the slices onto the plate.

    He takes a step then puts the plate down on the table in front of her before getting two more slices in the toaster oven. "Nothing on your dad yet though? At least he's smart enough to lay low since we're looking for him to begin with." That particular we're refers to both the GCPD and the Bats both.
