[oh hello there. his arms go around her waist while she goes in for the kiss.] You're welcome. Besides, you got me a watch first, it was the least I could do.

[bittersweeter]

We match. [ they don't; she's tiny, he's giant, she's pale and blonde, he's dark and mysterious. but they still match in lila's mind. putting it on her skinny wrist with her arms still around his neck, she holds it out in front of them to get the judgment. ] How's it look?

[watchmaker]

I think that it suits you. [ it better after all of that dead people money he spent on it >:# ]

[bittersweeter]

[ she grins again, happiest of all clams. ] I love it. [ which bears repeating, tbh. she should probably go finish her food but... he's so warm and comfy, she doesn't want to, oops. ]

[watchmaker]

Happy Valentine's Day. [well, if she's gonna sit here, she's about to get kissed again. and after that, he'll go back to eating. suckaaaaah.]

[bittersweeter]

[ this is probably why they get take out so much -- it's easier to eat and cuddle on a couch. but if he is gonna eat, she is going to eat so she prances back to her chair. ] Ditto. You didn't give me any warning otherwise you would have had a gift, too. Now I look cheap.

[watchmaker]

[true dat.] Just give me those sexts in iambic pentameter — it sounded like they were going to be awfully heartfelt.

[bittersweeter]

Yeah, it was a sonnet of let me count the ways I'd like to take your clothes off. So I'm sure I could just demonstrate later.

[watchmaker]

No worries, I'll take that, too.

[bittersweeter]

[ she laughs a little. she keeps looking at the watch like oh hey there and she's one of those people who wear it with the face on the inside, so her arm is just casually on the table and she keeps casually twisting it to look at the face. one track mind while she omnomnoms. ] I only have one line, you interrupted me. I'm guessing it's perfectly on time?

[watchmaker]

Of course. [if it wasn't before, he fixed it so that it is now.] I wouldn't let you have a watch running too fast or slow. It's like a metronome up here. [he motions at his head.]

[bittersweeter]

And yet completely incapable of giving your girlfriend more than five minutes to get ready for a date. [ oh she is so droll. NOT THAT SHE ACTUALLY CARES. he interrupted her being bored. ]

[watchmaker]

Do I have to explain to you what surprises are? [NO SYMPATHY.]

[bittersweeter]

You could have surprised me before you got out of the airport so we could have gotten here at the same time. [ and she would have had time to... well do nothing differently. ]

[watchmaker]

Alas, if only I could time travel.

[bittersweeter]

Too bad I don't know anyone with that power. [ pout. ] Pass the salt?

[watchmaker]

[well, since she asked so nicely, he might as well pass the salt.] I don't know if I'd do anything differently, anyway.

[bittersweeter]

You could go back in time, meet Jesus, kill him, and turn water into wine.

[watchmaker]

I think he would just come back. Really, though, that's the first thing you think of?

[bittersweeter]

No harm done then. I pulled that out of five seconds thought, it's not like I spend my days trying to figure out what you would do with powers you don't have.

[watchmaker]

What a shame. [he no curr, it's all good.] So, after this, do you want to go to the hotel? Or we could cross something off your normal list?

[bittersweeter]

[ who -- david byrne & st. vincent ]

This might cover my whole list. Date, present, surprise commercialized holiday with my boyfriend... [ she pulls a pen out of her purse, scribbles something on her napkin and passes the napkin and over. it reads in her neat, looping handwriting: "i love lila zacharov" and the date, all with a line underneath it for him to sign. maybe that amnesia trick will work with his name if he's not thinking about it... ]

[watchmaker]

[yeah, no dice because he remembers that conversation. (sense motive 15) so of course he's going to get all up in his head about it. still, he tries not to think about anything while signing the napkin. (craft: visual art? writing? his mods are the same so it doesn't matter — 9) maybe he was a doctor after all ... CAN YOU DECIPHER IT, LILA????]

[bittersweeter]

[ wow i can't believe you're making me try to figure out what the dc would be for that, i hate you. umm... decipher script 19? I DON'T EVEN KNOW IF THAT WORKS. she stares at it and sticks her tongue out at him. ] This looks like German, Sylar.

[watchmaker]

[you love me get out. AND IDK THE WEBSITE I WAS LOOKING AT SAYS THE DC IS 20 so i guess not. :'( he makes a bitch pls face at her.] Maybe I was German before. [shut up, no you weren't.]
