Room 418, Friday Evening

Given she was not a sentimentalist even when it didn't feel like the island was going out of its way to provoke her, this had been a trying week for Cara. Between one thing and another, by the time Friday evening rolled around, she was not the happiest Mord'Sith in Fandom (something of an achievement, considering she was the only Mord'Sith in Fandom).

Which was how instead of getting ready for the dance she came to be sprawled out on her bed sans leathers, occasionally casting a death glare at an innocent bunch of roses. Mostly innocent. The bastard things did keep making her sneeze, after all.

You could blame over half a lifetime's worth of conditioning and emotional repression for that.

"Not unless you'd count Bruce temporarily going insane and declaring his deep and abiding love for me an attack," she replied, cuddling in closer. Frankly, she would have preferred the attack. "Just everything. The deal everyone is making about this."

Clark was going to let the temporary part of that mean he didn't have to go get in Bruce's stupid face about hitting on his girlfriend. Even if it did make Clark frown in that injured sort of way he had. "Yeah, Valentine's is kind of a big hearts and flowers and feelings sort of holiday. I guess you guys don't have stuff like that back home, huh?"

Cara rolled her eyes and reached up to brush his face with her fingers. "Stop frowning. I turned him down. Repeatedly."

"We don't have a day for them." She wasn't going to comment on the universality of men with feelings and flowers.

"Of course you did, because you're the best," he said, turning his head so he could kiss her fingertips. "So you guys tend to do the whole 'every day is Valentine's Day' thing?"
wrongkindofsith: (Is everyone here completely insane?)

"What? No." Thank you, Clark, Cara needed that terrifying prospect. "I just...how all these demonstrations are supposed to somehow make someone's feelings more or less real?"

Because she was one to talk about demonstrating your feelings.

"Uh, I don't really know," Clark admitted. "I think it's more of a 'I thought about you' sort of gesture. Like, you already know how I feel about you so I sent you flowers as a little reminder."

Know, was deeply in denial about, same difference, really. "Flowers make me sneeze."

Which did not bring up the question of why they were still in the room when she could have gotten rid of them at any point during the day, not at all.

"Oh wow, are you allergic?" Clark should have noticed or something. So much fail.

Cara shrugged. "It's not so bad in the open. I usually just avoid them."
