Val is INCREDIBLY SMUG.

SHE CAN HAS MAKEOUTS.

With the hottest fluffy-haired Irish guy on the damn planet (at least in her opinion, and that's the only one that counts).

Oh, and for the purposes of RP setting, she's sprawled in a huge comfy armchair in the Cooper living room, eating celery with peanut butter. What? It's a snack. Just don't ask where she got the celery. There might have been flying involved.

"Right."

Slight snort.

"Of course. The hickey bear. Everybody knows y'get lots of those in the Midwest."

Stephen attempts to hide the hickey behind his collar. Possibly he should have worn his jacket.

Or probably not. Then it would be in exactly the same state.

...He actually has no idea what he would tell people. This is somewhat worrying. BRAIN, YOU WILL STAND TO ATTENTION WHEN HE SPEAKS TO YOU.

"Does it look like I could've fallen on something?" He's being slightly more serious now.

"Steve, it's a hickey, not a bump on the noggin. It honestly looks like you just got laid. Did you just get laid? I wouldn't think of Gabe as the type to move that fast, but--"

Ah, if only Steve was drinking something so that he could do a spittake. "No! We didn't-- we just went to his room and--" Yes, because that sounds SO much better. "--didn't. ...I'm strictly a fifth-date guy," he adds, because somewhat weak humour will totally get him back on top of this situation, yesyes.

"Well, whatever it was you went to his room and did, if you don't want the whole house knowing you'd better ask him not to leave any marks next time."

Grin!

Stephen isn't a blusher by nature (which, considering the colour of his hair, is quite fortunate). He's looking like he might seriously consider becoming one, though.

"...I see you managed to avoid collateral damage, eh?"

A diversion!

"Yeah, Mar ain't a biter. Unlike Gabe, apparently."

There would be winking and nudging, but she's too far away. So instead there are grins.
