Ah... no. He hasn't shown me any of his stuff yet. ( she admits after drowning most of her drink. ) But I'm sure he will eventually! Materials are still a lil' tough to get around here and all that.

( jinx pokes at her potatoes with her fork, knowing she should really eat or she'll regret it so much later. but this conversation is really twisting into something way more serious than she expected. )

I mean, we kinda got an understanding going. I don't really... mind it so much. I kinda like it. ( his daughter finds herself smiling a little warmly once she confesses, reminiscing their silly telepathic converations. ) — It's better than hearing all the other mambo- jambo going on in my head. It's good that he knows what I'm... thinking when I can't put crap into words.

( feeling just a tad bit better, jinx spears a piece of fish to shove in her mouth, chewing not so brutish this time. )

He can but... I don't let him do it all the time. Just when they get super loud and I can't handle 'em on my own anymore. 'Cause he's more than just some guy who can do mind heebie-jeebie things to me. S-So....

( should she had said that? it's hard to tell, but maybe it was needed just in case there were any doubts of her being with him simply because he has such an outstanding ability. )

From: [personal profile] opheliac
I don't need to be careful.

( those words slip out way quicker than she wanted it to. and jinx winces on the inside over it too. but she picks up the sentence again to elaborate further before this heads down south. )

I trust him, so there's nothing to worry about or be careful about.

( with a light shrug of her shoulder, the smile beams back on her face -- only this time showing rather fondness when she goes on a little more about quentin. )

Yeah, he can be a dummy and a lil' full of himself. But... who doesn't like confidence?

opheliac: ✖ malagraphic (they're under your spell)
From: [personal profile] opheliac
( the urge to roll her eyes is very strong, but she refrains. it's such a dad thing to do to tell their child to still be careful when there's nothing happening. but all the while, it is a bit endearing that silco cares so much for her. it's something she'll never get tired of despite it being annoying sometimes. )

Okay, fiiiiiine. I'll be careful. For you.

( wow, why was she so nervous telling him about quentin in the first place? this conversation seems to be going better than she expected. ... until he tosses out his usual threat. )

C'mon, Silco. You don't have to do that. ( she reassures him. ) — He's been pretty nice to me and he's a lotta fun. If he hurts me, it won't be serious. Ya know, like, stepping on my hair on accident or drinking outta my glass when he thought it was his. That kinda thing.

( hunching over to shove more food into her mouth, she wings her legs underneath the table rather merrily. )

I still gotta tell Vi about him too. But I so want the both of you to meet him sometime.

From: [personal profile] opheliac
( her expression sours just a touch and she flashes her father a quick look before turning it back to her meal. she isn't going to shout at him or give him a full attitude, but her tone is rather strong and a little on the defense side. )

Four days and I think I know how to watch out for people.

( jinx should leave it at that, but the need to backtalk is dancing on her tongue and it's almost impossible to swallow down. )

You didn't send me out to do stakeouts on the Topsiders for nothing.

From: [personal profile] opheliac
Right! Sooo...?

( and she trails off, trying to get him to finish what exactly is his point here. she's been on a lot of missions, she knows how to watch out for people, and she knows what to look out for. so jinx doesn't necessarily understand why this conversation is heading in this direction. it should had been done by now. )

opheliac: ✖ malagraphic (I know they wanna plot)
From: [personal profile] opheliac
But he's not hurting me. ... Actually, he's been doing the opposite.

( she straightens herself as she declares this, behaving all high and mighty as she shoves her last potato in her mouth. )

I'm telling you, Silco. Everything is fine. — Okay, yeaaah, we sped through few steps but that's not necessarily a bad thing. We're not getting any younger and we're really getting along great.

( "so there" is at the tip of her tongue but that would sound way too childish. instead, she reaches over for the bottle of wine that's on the table and pours just a small fill in her empty cup. )

From: [personal profile] opheliac
( it looks like she finally won this battle (for now or did she??) and feeling very victorious, she resumes back to cutting up her fish into pieces. there's still so many left of it on her plate. )

Oh! — You don't ever gotta worry about that. He's got these things called "condoms" and it'll stop that from happening. It's a pretty neat gizmo.

( and with that, she'll stuff her face as if what she just said was something so casual like the weather. )

From: [personal profile] opheliac
( ... alright. now he's making her feel a little like she is one of madam babette's workers at the brothel. with her cheeks flustering just a bit, she reaches over for that glass of wine she poured herself and quickly sips. maybe it's better to...not comment further on that particular part. because even if she wanted to or did, it wouldn't make it look any more pretty. so her father definitely has her there. )

opheliac: (•_•) (time to roll the dice)
From: [personal profile] opheliac
( she finds herself in a corner when he asks this. telling him more information about quentin might appear too gushy (which she is right now, honeymoon phase and all that), but letting silco have the floor to ask more questions will also confirm she knows..... kinda little about quentin -- thus prove further how careless she's being to date a guy without any real details. so the safest thing to do here is to say, "nu-uh" as a hum as she continues to drown herself with glass of wine. ... she might need a second one.

and once that's empty, she shoves just a little more fish her in her mouth to keep herself from saying anything else. why does it feel like she's in the danger zone right now? it's the way he's eyeing her and sitting there, isn't it? jinx rarely views silco as intimidating, but right now? boy, she wishes she could crawl out of her skin and slink away upstairs.

opheliac: ✖ malagraphic (A small bead of sweat)
From: [personal profile] opheliac
( tell him when she's ready? .... ready... for what? she isn't sure what he means by that. and jinx highly doubts he wants to know that she is indeed a woman now since her virginity is no longer with her. and she also doubts he wants further details on their "additional spice" to their relationship of quentin officially being her pet.

but is that secondary thing really a surprise though? she refers a lot of nobodies who she feels are beneath her as ants, small fries, or harmless preys she can't be bothered with. so maybe it was only a matter of time until that came into play. after all, ekko use to be her main "play thing" and he still is despite his absence. that's just a permanent title the firelight will always carry until his wings give out or she pecks him so hard with her beak that he finally calls it quits. so jinx will take the safe route here and say simply:
)


Uh... sure. I'll let you know.

opheliac: ✖ malagraphic (hold me close)
From: [personal profile] opheliac
( something about that feels rather insulting somehow. she frowns over to him as she scoots her plate away for now (she'll gets seconds in a minute) then reaching for the bottle of wine again. )

I'm not crazy attached to him, ya know. He has friends, I have friends. I won't combust if we stay a day or two or three apart from each other.

( she isn't sure if silco was hinting his concerns of her being tied to quentin's hip or not, but jinx wants to make it perfectly clear to him that's not going to be the case. she may be highly infatuated, obsessed, and possibly possessive over quentin but she isn't going to tie him down with a ball and chain. he's free to roam around and hang around with whoever he wants (as long as he keeps his hands to himself when it comes to other girls... or guys if he's into guys too). pouring one more round of wine, she sets the bottle back to the table then scoots it over to him. )

Besides I got a lotta work to do and we gotta a city to run.

( again to make it perfectly clear that just because her relationship with her sister is steadily improving, she has a few friends, and now a boyfriend doesn't mean she had forgotten or became distracted to their main goal here. )

opheliac: ✖ malagraphic (cause every romance shakes)
From: [personal profile] opheliac
( she wanted this conversation to drift off to something else and while it did go that route, jinx is unable to control her temper and is refusing to let him have the last word about the whole quentin topic. getting fed up, the teen slams both of her fists on the table before sharply standing up to her feet -- her chair falling back with a loud thud to the floor. )

Just what is your problem with me and having someone, Silco?! — Okay, I get it with Ekko, alright?! And I was understanding where you were coming from about him.

( something is telling her in her bones that she is going to very much regret or feel horribly guilty for shouting at her father like this. especially what she had done to him back home. but... she has to put her foot down sometimes right? )

But Quentin is a great guy and he's been nothing but nice to me. So of course I want to spend time with him, and there's nothing wrong with that, by the way...!! But I'm not so loony over him that I need to be with him every second of the day. And cut the junk with the four days already!

( starting to feel a little overwhelmed, she places her hand over her chest in attempt to calm herself down. )

I meant what I said that I won't ever betray you or—or leave you no matter who comes in my life. Nothing is going to change and no one is going to stop me from building the kingdom we are guiding towards. You're so freakin' important to me and I love you. Do I need to build rockets to blow up in the sky and have 'em spell it out for you? 'Cause I'll do that.
