<HansLynx> ::unlocks door with keys ‘n all and enters! drags in a large suitcase on wheels, hassa duffel bag over a shoulder:: Finally. ::yawns exhausted look. returns the hug and kiez. smiles:: I think you missed me.
<Tasha_Forge> Of course. ::will take his duffel bag from him to help him. is in some black track pants, white tank top and hair pulled up in a messy ponytail:: How’d everything go?
* TrinaKorat has joined #mbi_sk
<HansLynx> ::lets her do so, shuts door afterwards:: Went okay, though I hated that wait in Chikatgo.  ::has on pair of black cargo pants, black boots, red t-shirt and black long trenchcoat. removes coat, wet from rain outside. flops down on the sofa::
<HansLynx> ((hey Sagey!))
<Tasha_Forge> ((hey sagey!))
<Tasha_Forge> It sounded like it on the phone.  You want something to drink?
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>::can be available if the Trinamun wants him!::
<HansLynx> Any lagers in the fridge?
<TrinaKorat> ::Trinamun be thinking as she finally starts updating her LJs again::
<HansLynx> ::removes his cat slowly, lays it on arm of sofa. runs fingers through damp hair after pulling it out of ponytail::
<HansLynx> ((coat^))
<Tasha_Forge> Yep.  I got a new batch for you this week since you were coming home. ::goes to get him one. Returns, opening it for him and sitting by him:: Everything go alright?
<Tasha_Forge> ((<Tasha> OMG! You’re a human! <Hans> Dats right baby! thats what happens when I remove the cat…))
<TrinaKorat> ((::DIES!!!:: <Hans> This is Mittens. He’s… a far cry from the evolution pool. <Cat> Mrow. <Tasha> …. ))
<HansLynx> ((::DIES both!!::))
<Tasha_Forge> ((::DIIIIES!::))
<HansLynx> ::laughs:: Maw… you know me so well.  Thanks. ::takes it, giving her a peck onna cheek. takes a drink then leans back:: Yeah, just like it was supposed to as I told you before over the phone.  How’ve things been here?
<TrinaKorat> ((<Mittens> ::attaches himself to Tasha:: <Hans> See? He already likes you. <Mittens> ::looks Tasha square in the eyes:: Mrowey baby. <Tasha> ::smacks him into the wall!::))
<Tasha_Forge> Slow actualy. And quiet. Its kinda nice save you weren’t here.
<Tasha_Forge> ((::SOOOOODEAD!::))
<HansLynx> ((::DEAD:: <Hans> Hey now, that’s my play!  <Mittens>::starts marking territory the cat way::))
<TrinaKorat> ((::DIES!!!!::))
<TrinaKorat> ((<Mittens> Now, Joe. Watch and learn.))
<HansLynx> ((::DEAD!:: <Joe>::takes notes:: <Trina> I told you no more peeing around corners!))
<TrinaKorat> ((::DEADDEAD::))
<TrinaKorat> ((<Tasha> ::hisses!:: <Hans> And, Tasha, stop spitting on my hand))
<Tasha_Forge> ((::rolling!::))
<HansLynx> Quiet’s good.  I worried about you while I was gone. ::warm smile::
<HansLynx> ((::dying!::))
<Tasha_Forge> And I you.  ::snuggles!::  Just glad you’re home now.  Hopefully it’ll stay quiet like this for a while so we can both enjoy it.
<HansLynx> ((Those Forges have no manners. XDDD))
<Tasha_Forge> ((lol! nope..none at all. XD))
<TrinaKorat> ((::DYING::))
<TrinaKorat> ::isisisisisis… I don’t know where she is… But she’s somewhere! That’s not at work! Yay!::
<HansLynx> ::puts arm ’round her. takes nother drink:: Heh, well a few days of it for me to catch up will be nice.  If it’s quiet for too long, it can’t be good.
<HansLynx> ((LOL! <Trina>::is hiding under sofa along with several other guests that were having a wild party during Hans’ absense every night::))
<TrinaKorat> ((::DIES!!!:: <Mittens> Another woman! You kat, you.))
<Tasha_Forge> ((::DIIIES!::))
<HansLynx> ((::busts up:: <Joe ‘n Tasha> WHAT?! <Hans> Hey! You Forges are driving your Significant Others batty with your peeing and spitting all the time.  I needed support for what I was going through!))
<Tasha_Forge> ((::rolling!::))
<TrinaKorat> ((::SOOOOOOODEAD!!!!: <Hans> Mittens knows all.))
<Tasha_Forge> True.  How was Germany? cold? ::Grins::
<HansLynx> ::chuckles:: Yes.  I don’t mind the cold though.  I’d rather deal with snow than this rain here.
<Tasha_Forge> ::shakes head:: YOu are nuts. ::smirks:: Snow is cold!
<HansLynx> Eh if you grew up with REAL winters like in Germany and Mew York City, you’d be used to that.
<HansLynx> ((mebbe Joe ‘n Trina come over to Tasha’s or somethin’?))
<TrinaKorat> ((If the honey bunches of Trina’s wishes to. XD))
<Tasha_Forge> Well I didn’t so ::Razz!::
<TrinaKorat> ((::as mun locks the door. Dangit, she ain’t letting anybody else in this apartment tonight))
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>::The honey bunches of trina will follow here where ever honey goodness leads!::
<HansLynx> ::snorks then shakes head:: Wuss. ::takes a drink::
<HansLynx> ((LOL wha? XD))
<TrinaKorat> ((<Joe> ::Except when he has to pee around corners. That’s private::))
<HansLynx> ((<Rave>::sobs outside, banging on door:: WIIILMAAAAA- er DIANAAAAAAAAAA!))
<TrinaKorat> ((We went out ot the movies and our buds have a tendency of stopping by later at night))
<TrinaKorat> (DEAD))
<HansLynx> ((::diies and noddles to teh Sagey::))
<Tasha_Forge> ((whu oh!  There you go!))
<Tasha_Forge> ((::then diiiies!::))
<Tasha_Forge> You got that right. ::grins::
<HansLynx> Not going to challenge that huh?
<TrinaKorat> ::knocks on your door!::
<Tasha_Forge> not at all. ::then blinks. gets up to go to the door. Those dang late night visitors! ::XD peeks through then opens it up and grins:: well well..look who come by.
<HansLynx> ::ears perk, glances over towards door to see who it be! don’t trip over the suitcase there XD too tired to put it up yet. or lazy. whichever::
<TrinaKorat> Are we allowed?
<HansLynx> Yeah, sometimes you can be loud, Trina. ::smirking::
<Tasha_Forge> ::laughs:: Of course! Come in. Just step over Hans’ suitcases. He just got home.  ::opens door up for them::  <Joe>::will come in with her!:: she can be, believe it or not. Especially when I’ve not done something right. ::grins::
<TrinaKorat> ::laughs:: The toms’ opinions don’t count.
<Tasha_Forge> Ofcourse it don’t. It never does. ::grins and shuts door when they are in::
<HansLynx> Uh huh.  You she-kats just ignore the truth. ::finishes off his lager, sets empty bottle on table:: How’ve the honeymooners been doing?
<TrinaKorat> Right. That’s us. :goes hug Hans::
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>::chuckles:: I don’t think we are honeymooning anymore…are we? ::goes to hug his sis, then will go shake Hans’ hand::
<HansLynx> ::and returns Trina’s hug yes! sitting up ‘n all::
<HansLynx> ::shakes Joe’s hand! huzzah!::
<HansLynx> It hasn’t been a year, I think you’d still be.
<TrinaKorat> ::laughs::
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe> ::shrugs. goes to sit down::  Then I guess we are.  ::grins at Trina:: <Tasha>::Returns to sit by Hans:: what brings you two by this evening?
<TrinaKorat> Making sure his Hansness came back in one piece. :grinning::
<HansLynx> ::smirks:: Mawwww, they care! ::chuckles:: I didn’t bring anything back though, sorry.
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>::laughs:: darn! come on Trina. Lets go.  <Tasha>::snorks:: Didn’t even bring ME anything! the shame!
<TrinaKorat> ::gasps!:: Hans, for shame!
<HansLynx> I brought back myself, isn’t that enough? ::fake pout::
<Tasha_Forge> Oh I guess…::hugs him, laughing::
<TrinaKorat> Not without chocolate. You toms should know better. ::grinning::
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>:;shaking his head:: now WHO’s a honeymooner? Though you two aren’t to the vows yet. ::smirks::
<HansLynx> ::snickers, puts arms ’round her then grins:: So naive, all of you.  I did bring a few things back… Tasha, mind getting me my duffel?
<TrinaKorat> Uh oh… I think we shuld worry.
<HansLynx> Can’t rush a good thing now, Joe.
<Tasha_Forge> ::laughs:: Sure. ::gets up and goes to do so!  brings it back and sets it in his lap:: <Joe>::chuckles:: I think we should too. ::Then to Hans:: Careful.  Your girlfriend there may beat you to the asking like mine did.
<TrinaKorat> ::busts up! Blushing::
<HansLynx> ::snorks:: I doubt that.  And I’m not letting HER rush me either. ::opens up duffel:: For YOU, Chocolate queen… ::pulls out box, hands it to her:: fine Bavarian chocolates.
<TrinaKorat> ::which her? XD::
<Tasha_Forge> ::yeah there’s two chocoholics here, though mun thinks Trina the bigger one XD::
<TrinaKorat> ((<Tasha and Trina> ::Attack Hans!:: GIMME!))
<HansLynx> ::Trina XD::
<Tasha_Forge> ((::DIIIES!::))
<HansLynx> ((::DEAD::))
<TrinaKorat> Why, thank you. ::takes!::
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe> Oh dear…I’ll never get her to go to sleep now….she’ll be hyper for days. Thanks, Hans. ::smirks::
<TrinaKorat> :: And, I gotta make sure to keep them away from YOU. ::pokes him on teh nose::
<Tasha_Forge> <joe> awwww! thats not fair!
<HansLynx> ::laughs:: Welcome.  And for you… ::hands Joe a book about guns:: It isn’t quite German, but there is a great section in there of German guns and pistols.  It has value updates for appraisals should you be into gun collecting for a hobby and not soley just for use.
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>::grins, taking!:: Thanks! This is nice.  ::flipping through it:: I don’t have much in the way of old guns yet but Dad does.  I’ll get there one day. ::grins:: Thanks a lot.
<HansLynx> You’re welcome. ::then pulls out a music box for Tasha.:: This is for you… I hope to help you fill it with many pretty pieces of jewlery over time. <box> ::it’s of a dark wood, rectangular and the lid has a picture of a tom-kat and a she-kat from Megawar II era sitting down having a picnic::
<TrinaKorat> Oooo.. that’s lovely, Hans.
<Tasha_Forge> ::blinks, taking it:: oh wow..this is gorgeous, Hans.  ::smiles:: I love it. ::leans in to give him a kiez!::
<HansLynx> <musicbox>::plays a favorite tune of Tasha’s perhaps lol that one would find in a music box.::
<Tasha_Forge> ::maww can play Music Box Dancer, as mun played that at her wedding::
<HansLynx> You’re very welcome. ::returns the kiez mwah! and mun plotting deviousness… hehehehe:: Open it.
<TrinaKorat> ((Dumbdumbdeedumb… dumbdumbanddumber. XD))
<Tasha_Forge> ::oh noooez! ::
<Tasha_Forge> ((::diiiies!::))
<HansLynx> ((::DIIES Sage::))
<Tasha_Forge> ::smiling still! opens it to look inside::
<TrinaKorat> ((I blame you for that, CK. XD))
<Tasha_Forge> ((::diies~:: no blame my dad. He’s the one that started that one))
<TrinaKorat> ((Well, whoever I have to blame in your family))
<HansLynx> <inside>::on the red velvet interior, is a single diamond engagement ring! huzzah ha ha ha ha!::
<HansLynx> ((::laughs!:: You Blockers have weird manners. -g-))
<Tasha_Forge> ((TO let you in, Fel. My dad was singing that going down the isle at rehersals. Said he was gonna sing it going down the isle at the wedding to me but he didn’t))
<Tasha_Forge> ((::Diies!::))
<TrinaKorat> ((Don’t I know it. XD))
<TrinaKorat> ((After the massaging cat, I dunno how weirder it got… -g-))
<Tasha_Forge> ::eyes widen. lol! poor Joe and Trina can’t see it yet prolly. looks up at him:: Hans….I…..??
<HansLynx> ((::DIES!:: He’s a goob. -g-))
<Tasha_Forge> ((::Dead!:: yes JB misses you!))
<TrinaKorat> ((Me, or the air mattress? XD))
<HansLynx> ((LOL! I want a massaging cat XD))
<Tasha_Forge> ((both. XD))
<TrinaKorat> ::too busy looking at her chocolates XD::
<TrinaKorat> ((::Dead!::))
<Tasha_Forge> ((JB will do it! he loves to sleep with people))
<HansLynx> ::nods grinning, reaches in, taking it out of the music box. puts it on the proper finger if she lets him:: It was my mother’s.  Dad gave it to her when he asked what I’m about to… ::moves duffel off lap, gets on one knee:: Tashyra Leanne Forge, would you do me the honor of marrying me? ::AWWWWWWWWW mush! XD::
<HansLynx> ((Awww Sagey had a bedmate to keep her warm. :D))
<TrinaKorat> ::looks up now, staring::
<TrinaKorat> ((::DIES!!!!:: Yes, I do. CK, no. No hook ups))
<Tasha_Forge> ((::SOOOOOOOODEAD!:: awww come on!))
<HansLynx> ((::dead!::))
<Tasha_Forge> ((Sagey don’t like my choice of guys for her…))
<TrinaKorat> ((Not with whom you had in mind last night, I don’t!))
<Tasha_Forge> ((::rolling!::))
<HansLynx> ((LOL you still at it huh, CK? XD))
<Tasha_Forge> ((of course!))
<TrinaKorat> ((Sure, I’d have over ten thousand fandoms kissing my feet, but.. ))
<Tasha_Forge> ((what stinky feet they are….::flees!::))
<HansLynx> ((<CK> Di, he’s the CUTEST freezer salesman!  And he likes cats!))
<TrinaKorat> ((::SOOOOOOOOOOOOOODEAD!!!! both!::))
<TrinaKorat> ((<CK> And, he’s got hair…! on his back. But it’s still hair!!!))
<Tasha_Forge> ::maww will start crying. letting him do so.  smiling though.  manages to nod to him:: Y..yes.  ::sniffle. lol!::  Yes I will. ::will hug him!::
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe> O.O
<Tasha_Forge> ((::SOOOOOOOOODEAD!:: awww come on. He’s got a cute doggie!))
<HansLynx> ((::DEAD::))
<TrinaKorat> ::grinning:: Awwww…
<HansLynx> ::yey! hugs her in return! laughs a little:: I was gonna do that later but the spoiled kitts had to have their stuff so… ::lets go, grins over at Trina ‘n Joe a moment then looks back up to Tasha, sitting on sofa again::
<Tasha_Forge> ::laughs some.  wipes at her eyes some:: Yeah well….this kitten just got spoiled more.  <Joe>::still in sorta shock:: wow..that was quick.
<HansLynx> Quick?  I think not.  You two realize Tasha and I have been together a bit over a year now?
<TrinaKorat> ::chuckling:: Awww.. ::goes hug them: Congrats, you two.
<Tasha_Forge> ::maww will hug de Trina:: Thank you.  ::smiling still.  takes another gander at that rock! lol!::
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>::laughs. gets up to shake Hans hand again:: True.  about the same time as me and Trina really.
<TrinaKorat> ::grinning, then sits back down: Speaking of couples and kittens… I wanna ask you guys something.
<Tasha_Forge> Go ahead.  ::reaches over to hold Hans’ hand when he sits back down::
<HansLynx> ::hugs Trina too lol shakes Joe’s hand:: Well least I beat my gal to the punch of asking. ::smirks and chuckles. sits back down now and puts arm ’round Tasha, kisses her onna cheek. looks at Trina:: NO.  She is not expecting, this will not be a shotgun wedding.
<TrinaKorat> ::laughs out loud::
<HansLynx> ::holds Tasha’s hand with his other::
<Tasha_Forge> :;busts up laughing:: Definitly not! <Joe>She better not be! ::smirks::
<TrinaKorat> ::then takes Joe’s hand:: I was wondering, and Joe, I want your opinion too. If… and I’m still praying it does happen… if we ever have the opportunity of having a kitten of our own, would you be the honor of being its Godparents?
<HansLynx> ::blinks:: Really?  You want me to be a godfather? ::I have some chocolates you canna refuse::
<Tasha_Forge> ::smiles:: I wouldn’t mind it at all.  <Joe> Hey I couldn’t think of anyone better honestly.  ::pats at Trina’s hand with his free one::
<TrinaKorat> :smiles:: Thanks, guys.
<Tasha_Forge> No problem. Wow…engaged and a godmother possibly all in one night.
<HansLynx> ::laughs:: A lot to take in.  And I’ll try to do my best in godfathering… is that even a word?
<TrinaKorat> ::chuckles:: You’ll do fine.
<Tasha_Forge> ::laughs:: I think it is.  <Joe> well we gotta have one first. We’re hoping a good report from the doctors before too long.
<TrinaKorat> ::nods:: I’m gonna head for a physical in another month.
<HansLynx> ::maw, gentle smile:: I hope for the best, you two.
<TrinaKorat> Thanks, Hans. :grinning:
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe> Yeah, thanks.  we’re hoping for a good report.  <tasha> i’m sure it’ll come out alright.  ::smiles::
<TrinaKorat> I hope so… ::soft smile::
<HansLynx> Shame that nutjob she-kat can’t be found though. ::frowns::
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>:;sighs:: what I wouldn’t give to get my hands on her.
<TrinaKorat> :gives Joe’s hand a small squeeze::
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>::Returns it, smiling a bit at her::  <Tasha> hey, we’ll get her someday.  SHe’ll goof up and we’ll get her.
<HansLynx> Yeah well… lately seems like they’re all getting away.
<TrinaKorat> We just need to keep an eye out is all.
<Tasha_Forge> ::nods:: I’m like Hans here. Quiet is good a while but too long starts to worry me.
<HansLynx> Exactly.
<TrinaKorat> ::nods:: We’ll figure something out.
<HansLynx> Meh… ::mrrrs, tail tip flicks a couple times::
<Tasha_Forge> As soon as McGrath gets a lead on those guys from the New Years Eve stuff we can go after them.
<HansLynx> ::lol she know her bebbe is still sore about them XD::
<HansLynx> I don’t understand why he doesn’t have a lead on them now.  Too many unsolved cases and criminals going around for my liking.  I was glad to hear nothing went down during my absence.
<TrinaKorat> Things are slowly becoming steadier.
<Tasha_Forge> ::pats his hand:: I don’t understand it either, but he’s never let us down before.
<HansLynx> I guess… How’s Mark been doing?
<HansLynx> ::gives Tasha’s hand a squeeze::
<TrinaKorat> Better. A LOT better, in fact.
<TrinaKorat> His good mood is almost scary. ::grinning::
<HansLynx> ::laughs:: Guess he’s finally gone for it then?
<TrinaKorat> Gone for what?
<Tasha_Forge> ::blinks:: Gone for it?  The insane asylum?
<HansLynx> Y’know, Rile-eeerrr… nothing, nevermind.
<Tasha_Forge> ::blinks:: wait…What was that?!
<TrinaKorat> ::snorks!:: You mean Nairobi?
<HansLynx> ::moves arm from ’round Tasha’s shoulders lol streeeetches big and yawns:: I’m talking sleepy talk- ::blinks, looks at Trina::
<TrinaKorat> You know, the newer agent?
<HansLynx> You know about Robi?
<TrinaKorat> ::Stretches:: He talked to Jase about it the other night and wanted an opinion, then Jase told me as apparently I know more about the she-kat mind. Or something. Those two never make any sense to me.
<HansLynx> ::smirks:: Uh huh… well then guess I can go ahead and talk about it.  Those two need to get together anyway and quit pussyfooting around.
<Tasha_Forge> ::mun forgets..was Tasha there for these discussions? I think she was….::
<HansLynx> ((LOL I forget XD Wasn’t Joe with Hans when Mark talked to them?))
<HansLynx> ((or was it Tasha?))
<TrinaKorat> ((Nopes. It was Tasha))
<HansLynx> ((ah then Tasha knows XD))
<TrinaKorat> Mark’s decided to see where it leads. He just got out of a bad relationship, so he doesn’t wanna rush it.
<HansLynx> BAD?  You call dating LYONS bad?  I call that H E double hockey sticks.
<TrinaKorat> ::pause:: How… did you know about Lyons? He didn’t tell anybody save for me and Jase…
<Tasha_Forge> ((I think it was Tashalol!))
<HansLynx> ((We’ll say it was, by the almighty power of MOD! ::STAMP approved!::))
<TrinaKorat> ((::DIES::))
<HansLynx> Er… oh crud… uh… I was told by someone else who I promisedIwouldn’trepeatthat.
<TrinaKorat> Who?
<HansLynx> It’s not important…
<TrinaKorat> Well, half the Bureau knows already, so you might as well spill. ::grinning::
<Tasha_Forge> ::snorks:: Yes, spill on Lyons. I didn’t know this one.
<HansLynx> ::sighs, leans back against sofa some, puts arm back ’round Tasha’s shoulders:: Robi.  She’d told me about Mark, basically having the same concerns of his with their ranking and all being apropriate or not… but she mentioned he’d just come out of a relationship.  I was surprised, said Mark told me and Tasha that he hasn’t dated since college but she said no, he was dating a former agent, Lyons.
<HansLynx> Weird I know.  I thought she was yankin’ my tail at first but she was for real.  I can’t believe Mark hid that from us all for however long it was they were together.  Must’ve been awhile since she apparently hurt him.  Guess it was over when she was discovered being a traitor working for the NSA.
<Tasha_Forge> ::shivers:: Ugh….I can’t imagine even being friends with her.
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>::Shakes head:: poor Mark…he was going insane…
<TrinaKorat> ::nods:: That’s what it was. I guess he saw something in her that we didn’t.
<HansLynx> ::snorks at Tasha, then looks to Joe ‘n Trina:: I’d go insane too if I was dating her.  Something must’ve been great to deal with that.
<HansLynx> Mark’s too much of a softie though.
<TrinaKorat> That’ll always be his downfall. He’s always had a thing for giving people second chances, no matter how outrageous they were.
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe> Hey….watch it. ::smirks::
<HansLynx> ((<Tasha>::still shudders:: BLECH I mean, imagine what kissing her was like! “No, you didn’t fill this permission to kiss me file out correctly.  Do it again, and do not forget to sterilize with mouthwash first.”  ::gags::))
<Tasha_Forge> It wasn’t the second chance thing that go tme. It was her lack of wanting anyone to have a second chance
<TrinaKorat> ((::DEAD::))
<TrinaKorat> ::nods:: Well, at least it’s over. So long as he’s back on the saddle is all that matters.
<Tasha_Forge> ((::DIIIIES!::))
<HansLynx> Right.  Robi’ll help with that I hope.  If he kept his and Lyons’ relationship off the record and unknown, I’m sure he won’t let one with Robi affect anything.  That’s what I told her anyway.
<Tasha_Forge> Hey he’s got two couples now that have done just fine in there. I don’t see why he can’t have a relationship
<HansLynx> ::grins:: That’s what I’ve told BOTH of them.
<TrinaKorat> ::smiles:: I think that’s the thing, tho’. He’s “the boss.”
<HansLynx> And there’s three couples actually, counting Riley and Lawrence.
<HansLynx> ::laughs:: He might be the boss on paper, but he’s one of us.
<Tasha_Forge> oh yeah…them too!  ::then nods:: yeah he’s one of us.
<TrinaKorat> ::nods:: He just needs to be convinced of that.
<HansLynx> We should invite him over for drinks and pizza.  Robi too if they’re official?
<HansLynx> Have a get together here outside of the Bureau.
<Tasha_Forge> Whats it matter if they are official?  Invite them anyway! :;grins:: And yeah we could have some get together here.
<HansLynx> ::laughs:: You wanna play matchmaker, don’t you?
<Tasha_Forge> ::grins:: Problem with that?
<HansLynx> ::gives her a squeeze hug with arm::
<HansLynx> Nah… since they both want to be with one another already.
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>::chuckles:: I think Mark needs something like this honestly. He doesn’t get out enough.
<HansLynx> I agree.  Always in his office or home.
<TrinaKorat> ::smiling: I know he’d appreciate it, guys. Maybe… we can set them up? ::little twinkle in her eye;:
<Tasha_Forge> Sounds good to me. Shove ‘em in a back room and lock the door. ::grins:;
<TrinaKorat> ::laughs!::Tempting.
<HansLynx> ::groans:: You she-kats. ::shaking head, smiling::
<Tasha_Forge> ::grins:: we know how to work you toms. <Joe> careful, Hans. You’ll be hooked to her permanently before long. ::smirks::
<HansLynx> Hey, I won’t mind being hooked to her permanently in a backroom. ::grins at Tasha bwhahaha::
<TrinaKorat> ::busts up!::
<Tasha_Forge> Hans! :;snorks:: Behave! <Joe>::busts up::
<HansLynx> ::snickers, kisses Tasha’s cheek. turns to the other two:: Hey… you two want something to drink?  Forgot to ask earlier.
<TrinaKorat> Milk if you have any.
<HansLynx> Do we have any? ::looks to Tasha::
<Tasha_Forge> Yep. We sure do. ::gets up:: As usual, I’ll go get it. ::smirks. heads to kitchen and returns with Joe a milk as mun says he wants one too! hands them over:: here you guys.
<HansLynx> As usual?  ::smirks at her::
<Tasha_Forge> Yep. Didn’t see you going to get it. ::snickers. sits again by him. pokes him inna ribs::
<TrinaKorat> :laughs:: For shame, Hans. Again. ::grinning, thanking her::
<HansLynx> ::chuckles:: Well you’re the she-kat, it’s your job to serve the guests.  Besides, I just got home.
<Tasha_Forge> Hey! You better watch it! this She-kat will go on strike!
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>::chuckles:: I learned early on not to tick them off. They can take away the cooking. Not good…
<HansLynx> Oh ho, then I’ll get my cooking elsewhere.
<Tasha_Forge> Oh? where? ::grins::
<TrinaKorat> C’mon, Tasha. We’ll go out to eat. Let the toms fend for themselves.
<HansLynx> Lots of places.  ::looks to Trina:: Don’t you encourage her. ::smirks::
<TrinaKorat> Oh, I dare to. ::smirk back:
<Tasha_Forge> ::laughs::  what? Me and Trina can’t have a night out without you toms? You and Joe can go get dinner at….Katdonalds. ::Grins::
<HansLynx> Heh.  Joe still needs to do a lot of training with you, doesn’t he? ::rests arms on back of sofa:: Joe and I wouldn’t settle for that. We’d have the best of foods served by pretty waitresses.
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe> Hey now..don’t go getting me in trouble…::smirking::
<Tasha_Forge> ::snorks:: no I gotta get YOU trained.
<HansLynx> No she-kat’s managed to tame me.
<Tasha_Forge> We shall see.  ::grinning:: <Joe> he’s about to learn the cold, hard facts of marriage.  ::puts an arm around Trina::
<HansLynx> Yes we shall. ::challenging look, grinning as well::
<TrinaKorat> ::laughing!:: Oh, I see how it is.
<HansLynx> What cold hard facts are those, Joe?
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe> The ones that say its best to just sit there and be quiet and say “Yes ma’am” when you get in trouble cause you will not win an argument.
<HansLynx> ::laughs at that:: A Lynx tom never just sits there and stays quiet when he knows he’s right.
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe> ::shakes his head:: I can see it now..the clash of the hardheads.  Forge versus Lynx.
<HansLynx> Put your money on me then.
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe> Hey, I’m staying out of it.  ::smirks::
<Tasha_Forge> Hey its not gonna be THAT bad. We’ve done good so far. ::gives Hans a squeeze::
<HansLynx> ::smiles at her:: That’s because I’ve let you have your way too much.
<TrinaKorat> :: See? I already have you trained. ::grinning, kisses Joe on the cheek::
<Tasha_Forge> uh huh…we shall see. don’t worry guys. Once you leave he’s tame as a kitten. he just likes to show out. ::grins::
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>::purrs:: Thats right.  I know how to keep it happy around our house.
<HansLynx> ::laughs at that:: Toms today…
<HansLynx> Give up so easily.
<Tasha_Forge> Hey, you’re a tom today too so don’t forget that.
<HansLynx> Oh I haven’t.  ::grins at her::
<Tasha_Forge> ::pokes at his belly:: Good.
<TrinaKorat> ::snickering;;
<HansLynx> When are you all on shift again? ::takes her hand that pokes him and holds it::
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe> tomorrow morning bright and early.
<TrinaKorat> Don’t remind me.
<HansLynx> You too, Trina?
<TrinaKorat> Yuppers.
<HansLynx> ::looks at Tasha:: What about you, angel?
<Tasha_Forge> Tomorrow about mid morning.  Earlier than I like but still not too early.
<TrinaKorat> Well, in that case, we better let you two rest.
<HansLynx> Maw… can you maybe ask one of the captains for a day off for me? ::glances over with a grin at Joe ‘n Trina::
<TrinaKorat> Don’t look at me. I’m just married to one.
<HansLynx> You’re wearing the pants however.
<Tasha_Forge> :;laughs:: well..I suppose I can.  Why?  ::grins::  Taking me wedding dress shopping already?
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>::chuckles::
<TrinaKorat> ::
<HansLynx> No… but I’d like to spend the entire day with you relaxing before I go in. ::smiles at her again::
<Tasha_Forge> ::looks over at Joe:: well?  <Joe>::pretends to be thinking:: I dunno….there’s so much going on right now….. <Tasha> Joe…I’ll bake a pie for you.  <joe> Okay! done.  Day off tomorrow. ::grins:: You owe me.
<TrinaKorat> :snorks:: C’mon, hon. Let’s go before they give you kitten eyes.
<HansLynx> ::laughs now:: Your sister’s trained you well for your wife, Joe. ::snickers::
<HansLynx> I’ll return the favor later then.  Thanks.
<Tasha_Forge> <Joe>::gets up laughing:: I grew up with a sister and a mother. That was lesson enough.  We’ll catch you two lovebirds later. congrats again.
<Tasha_Forge> ::gets up to see them out:: Glad you guys come by. Stop by anytime.
<HansLynx> Thank you.  And good luck yourselves.
<TrinaKorat> Yeah. Lemme know if you need to go dress shopping, Tasha. And, see you guys at work.
<HansLynx> ::remains on the sofa as they go::
<TrinaKorat> ::heads out, for sooth!::
<Tasha_Forge> <Tasha> I will! :;waves at them and will shut the door as they leave::
<TrinaKorat> ((and, I head to bed, bebbehs))
<HansLynx> ((maw, nights Sagey! ::huggles::))
<Tasha_Forge> ((nights sagey ::hugloafs::))
<TrinaKorat> ((::loafs for boths!!!!:: Night darlings!))
* TrinaKorat has quit IRC (Quit: )
<HansLynx> Well, this was quite the evening… more than I expected.
<Tasha_Forge> ::will head to the couch to sit with him again. hugs him:: Thank you so much.  The ring is gorgeous.
<Tasha_Forge> ::smiles:: indeed it was.
<HansLynx> ::chuckles and returns the hug:: My dad insisted I give that one to you.  Told you he liked you greatly.
<Tasha_Forge> ::laughs:: Well…so long as it was your choice too and not your dad’s.
<HansLynx> I had planned on purchasing one, but I feel that you should have this one. ::takes her hand with the ring and kisses it:: I wasn’t sure if he’d want to part with it.
<HansLynx> His idea, which I agreed.
<Tasha_Forge> :;smiles softly:: I’ll take good care of it thats for sure. I feel honored you both thought me worthy to wear your mother’s ring.
<HansLynx> Hey… you’re worthy of becoming my wife.  Why not worthy enough for my mother’s ring?
<HansLynx> She’d want you to wear it.
<Tasha_Forge> ::shrugs:: I dunno. :;small laugh:: I’m glad you think so.  ::snuggles him:: When did you wanna think about getting married anyway?
<HansLynx> Hmm… perhaps a winter wedding?  Though you aren’t as fond of snow as I am so… ::chuckles:: sooner if you’d like. ::snuggles as well, looking down at her::
<Tasha_Forge> ::laughs:: well winter wedding is fine.  we don’t get much snow around here.
<HansLynx> Here we don’t…
<Tasha_Forge> Where…were you thinking?
<HansLynx> Germany.  In Munich, where the Lynx family is from.
<Tasha_Forge> ::blinks:: oh…wow…uh….heh..I suppose that’d be fine.  We’d just have to figure out a way to make sure my family gets flown over there and everything.
<HansLynx> My father will see to that. ::smiles at her::  He’ll pay for everyone’s airfare from here in the states.
<Tasha_Forge> ::smiles:: I dont have to say the vows in German do I? ::nervous laugh::
<HansLynx> ::laughs:: Nein. ::grins::
<Tasha_Forge> :;sigh of relief:: Oh thank goodness. I’m afraid I’d really forget the words then.  ::leans in against him:: If Germany is where you want it then thats where we’ll have it.  We can fly mom, dad, grandma, Joe and Trina..and anyone else that wants to go over there.
<HansLynx> ::pulls her in a hug as she leans against him:: Wonderful! ::purrs to her:: I’m glad you don’t mind.  It means a lot to me.
<Tasha_Forge> ::purrs back, smiling more::  I don’t mind. Never dreamed I’d get married outside the states but yeah..besides, I’ve been wanting to see Germany. Maybe we can just call that our honeymoon too?  Tour Germany or something?
<HansLynx> Sounds good to me.  We can go to Munich and Berlin and anywhere else you’d like.  I can show you where I learned to fly by my grandfather at his former estate which a second cousin has now. ::leans back now, grinning:: You can even see where the Red Lynx lived.
<Tasha_Forge> ::laughs a bit:: That sounds great.  Did…your father tell you he and I had a lil…chat?
<HansLynx> A little chat? ::shakes head:: No… when was this?  What was it about?
<Tasha_Forge> Um..just before you guys had to leave.  It was about..the Red Army.  He knows I know.
<HansLynx> ::eyes widen a moment:: But… how?
<Tasha_Forge> ::shakes head:: I dunno. He figured it out.  He had to try and try for a long time before I fessed up. He drilled me pretty hard over it. I think he knows though that I’m not a threat to you guys.
<HansLynx> You sure he knows you aren’t?
<Tasha_Forge> ::nods:: I’m sure.  He and I were on good terms when he left.  He was happy to know I wasn’t going to go blabing to everyone about it.  I told him that I would protect those I love no matter the cost.
<HansLynx> That’s good to know…
<Tasha_Forge> And I meant it. ::looking up at him. hugs him a bit tigther:: I dont like what you do, Hans. You know that.  But…if it come to it I’d protect you, just like I did Joe when he needed me. I won’t see my family rotting away in a prison.
<HansLynx> ::slight smirk:: I won’t be caught and sent to prison, Tasha. ::rubs her back some:: So you won’t have to worry about it.
<Tasha_Forge> Good. Thats what I want to hear. ::purrs, leaning head on his shoulder:: You should get some rest. Its been a long day for you.
<HansLynx> ::chuckles:: Yes… a bit of rest.  ::gives her a squeeze then gently nudges her as he lets go:: Mind turning down the sheets for me? I want to call my father and let him know you accepted my proposal.
<Tasha_Forge> Of course.  ::smiles.  gets up to go do so;: mind turning out the lights and making sure the door is locked? I wanna turn in with you.  ::heading towards their bedroom::
<HansLynx> Of course not. ::takes up the cordless phone and stands. goes to check the door and locks it. dials up Fritz.:: Dad?  I’m aware it’s late but I wanted to call you. ::starts talking in German now lol as he turns out the lights ‘n all.  Tasha can recognize a few “nein”s in there.:: “I’ve taken control again, more successfully.  No, she didn’t suspect, nor did two of the agents who stopped by.  No, I proposed tonight as Hans planned to. (more)”
<HansLynx> “No, it is too early to tell if Flora is there…” ::whispers this part:: “Do not get a tone with me, grandson.  Do not forget what is more important.” ::hangs up now, putting phone where it goes and then goes to bedroom::
<Tasha_Forge> :;smiles over at him as she comes out of the bathroom in her nightgown::  He happy to hear the news?
<HansLynx> ::she prolly can recognize a few other words too and of course his own name XD::
<HansLynx> ::goes and sits on the bed, has a blank look a moment:: … come again?
<Tasha_Forge> I asked if he was happy about the news of the proposal. ::goes to her side and crawls in::
<HansLynx> Oh! Er… I think so… ::scritches head a moment, looking around the room some.  rubs at his eyes then undoes his boots, taking ‘em off:: I mean… he wanted me to so…
<Tasha_Forge> You alright? ::scooting closer to rub at his back::  I heard a lot of nein’s in that conversation, and your name.  You sure everything is alright?
<HansLynx> ::sighs then removes socks ‘n pants. not gonna bother getting into pjs, just stays in shorts ‘n t-shirt. finally looks at her as he gets in next to her, smiles reasurredly:: Yeah, just been a long day I think. ::turns off lamp. quiet a bit then:: You get to understand anything else I said?
<Tasha_Forge> No, not really.   My german is still not good. I just understood some of the very basic words.  Nothing to tell what you guys were talking about.  ::snuggles over to him. maww missed him::
<HansLynx> ::laughs a bit, glad to have her close, puts arms ’round her:: Then you need more practice…
<Tasha_Forge> I know. ::smiles:: I’ll practice before the wedding. I hate to get there and not know any german.
<HansLynx> You’ve got almost a year… I think you’ll do well enough.  ::puts confusion out of his mind and purrs to her::
<Tasha_Forge> I hope so. ::purrs back:: Its good to have you home.  ::leans in to give him a kiss::
<HansLynx> It’s good to be home. ::returns it. mun reading up on German cities ‘n all. thinks Munich would fit Hans’ family better, even tho the Red Baron was from a part of Germany that’s now Poland. XD::
<HansLynx> You sure you want to be a Lynx?
<Tasha_Forge> ::ahh thats fine!::
<Tasha_Forge> ::laughs:: Of course I do. I wouldn’t have said yes if I didn’t mean it.
<HansLynx> Well… Joe and Trina were there.   Didn’t say yes to not embarrass me? ::chuckles::
<Tasha_Forge> Not at all.  No worries okay?  ::smiles:: If you think you need to wait longer than a year we can.  I don’t mind.
<HansLynx> No.  A year isn’t rushing it. ::says softly and gives her a squeeze::
<Tasha_Forge> If you’re sure.  ::snuggles:: I think you are just tired. Get some sleep, love.  We’ve the whole day tomorrow.
<HansLynx> Alright, alright. ::closes eyes and purrs which fades then stops as he goes to sleep fairly quickly::
