nevermore_logsWHO: Psyche & Anteros
WHEN: Tuesday Afternoon
WHERE: Eros and Psyche's home, New York
WHAT: Psyche comes home to a surprise.
When Psyche would arrive home she might get the feeling something was off. Her place was not the way she'd left it.
The kitchen looked like a large rat had gone through it, some cabinets were open, food boxes open or torn open if it seemed complicated. The refrigerator door was open and everything inside, including cold meats for sandwiches, had exactly one bite taken out of it. Things that weren't meant to be consumed on their own seemed to also have been eaten. The fruit in the fruit bowl was the same. One bite taken out of the apple, pear, banana, etc. Next there was a pool of Eros' clothes next to the sofa and one flip flop on the table and another sitting in a chair.
The biggest thing that was probably different was the stark naked man with a very serious concentrating look on his face who had his ear pressed up to a speaker that was playing the radio but you could barely hear it because the volume was so low. Hmm. No, pretty sure that wasn't there when she left earlier.

His body was trembling and he let out a half whine/half sob crying out his brother's name, as if maybe Eros would hear him and come to his rescue. But that wasn't going to happen so really all that was left to do was to defend himself! So naturally he burst into tears.

That was why she recognized his face. It was one she hadn't seen personally in a very, very long time. "Anteros?" she asked in a very calm voice, a stark contrast to her previously demanding tone.
Realizing she was still holding the rolling pin, she put her arm down and rolled it out into the hall. Her hands were raised to show she meant no harm. She suddenly felt very bad about everything that had just happened, but really, who wouldn't freak out about an unexpected naked man lounging around in their home?
She settled down on her knees and looked past the fact that he was still very much naked. "Anteros? It's me, Psyche. I didn't realize it was you. I thought you were an intruder. Are you alright?"

Date: 2012-08-23 06:22 pm (UTC)She watched him closely and as soon as she knew he was looking at her smiled warmly. "I'm really, really sorry. If I knew it was you I wouldn't have acted like that."

Date: 2012-08-23 06:33 pm (UTC)He sat indian style and looked like a puppy that got beaten up. He used the back of his hand to wipe at his tear stained cheek and then looked at her and sniffled, finally getting to really see her as more than a moving loud blur coming after him.

Date: 2012-08-23 06:42 pm (UTC)Her eyes stayed at eye level, but she still felt uncomfortable with the fact that her daughter was just down the hall. "Now, I'm really going to need you to at least put some pants on. My daughter, Hedone, your niece, doesn't need to be seeing you naked," she explained. She offered a hand.

Date: 2012-08-23 06:48 pm (UTC)He put his hand in hers but was not thrilled about this pants news. He wasn't the one that was crazy. They should be wearing less clothes, not him more..

Date: 2012-08-23 06:53 pm (UTC)She lead him out of Hedone's room and back into the living room where she found some of Eros' clothes. She looked through them to find something suitable. "Here, try these. They're loose and comfortable," she handed over a pair of pajama pants.

Date: 2012-08-23 07:33 pm (UTC)He looked over at Hedone and a smile came to his face. He loved children and his very own brother's child was something that filled him with great joy. And if the only way to see her was by putting on these things.. the smile dimmed when his eyes went back to the PJ's but finally he turned his lips in and nodded.
Alright, let's get it over with. Do your worst, dear sister-in-law..

Date: 2012-08-23 07:39 pm (UTC)She smiled, pleased, "Good." It felt like taking care of a large child. She moved to one side and held the pants so that she could help lift his leg on that side. "Just slide your leg into this hole, and then the other leg into the other hole."

Date: 2012-08-23 07:46 pm (UTC)Before Psyche could attempt to help him, he used force to send his stuck force through the leg which resulted in a riiiiiiiip and Anteros was now wearing half pajama shorts and half pajama bottoms.
He gave Psyche a look that said this-was-your-idea.

Date: 2012-08-23 07:52 pm (UTC)She started to giggle at the sight, "I'm sorry, I should have explained better. Don't move." Unable to stop giggling, she got up and went to retrieve some scissors. This was easily fixable.
When she came back she said, "These are scissors. I'll use them to cut the other side. It'll look better than have one side short and the other long. Okay?"
no subject
Date: 2012-08-23 08:39 pm (UTC)He blinked when she brought back knives but he trusted her so just watched her cut the other side. Less of these awful things on him? Yes please. He made a note that ripping these things meant that people will cut them off you. Must do it again.
He wiggled his toes and looked down, okay so it wasn't much covering. Still hated it. He looked at Psyche, then at Hedone and then he looked at Psyche again but this time with a smile like a kid who was waiting for permission to go play.
BAHAHAHA. Love his logic!
Date: 2012-08-23 08:51 pm (UTC)She looked from him to Hedone and then called out, "Hedone, sweetheart. You can come here now." Hedone, eager to get out of that corner jumped up immediately and bounded over excitedly. At first she looked timidly at Anteros until Psyche said, "This is your uncle, Anteros. He's sort of daddy's twin. I think you'll like him."
Makes sense to him! Hope nothing's designer~
Date: 2012-08-23 09:11 pm (UTC)Anteros gave Hedone a big smile, "Do you like to play games?" he asked. Cause Anteros loved it but so far this world was sorta sucky and people didn't seem to have time for it. He wasn't talking in that special voice adults used to talk to kids. He was being himself, that tone of a child was just natural and children could tell.
It all probably is. XD
Date: 2012-08-23 09:20 pm (UTC)Hedone waved slightly to her mom and focused on her uncle. She nodded with a big smile, "Oh yeah! Daddy plays games with me all the time when he's home, so does mommy. Why aren't you wearing a shirt? Don't you like them? I like mine a lot, pink is my favorite color, and it has gumdrops. OH! Have you ever had gumdrops?" She was incredibly chatty once she got started.

Date: 2012-08-23 09:35 pm (UTC)He made a gross face and shook his head and scratched his chest, "They're itchy." he looked surprised, "I love pink! And red. And peach." he looked at her with wide eyes and shook his head, "No.. what's gumdops?" looking very intrigued. If Hedone liked it, it must be something wonderful.
He quickly frowned and asked in a serious tone, "You don't wear them do you?" because then he most definitely did not want gumdops.
