Texting~!

[dead_serious]

Technology in the reaper realm always advanced much quicker than in the mortal world. How that was possible wasn't made quite clear, but every employee would have to agree that it made the job far more tolerable and almost manageable. Before they knew it, fancy new machines were showing up in their cubicles and offices. Large ones that could transfer writing from one sheet to countless others. An extremely convenient electronic typewriter that made the organization of files far more streamlined. And now, their newest administered device which allowed them to communicate between departments and even branches without having to travel. They called it a 'cellular phone.'

( This shall be a catch all post for any random text exchanges between characters! )

Honestly, who is being the tease now?

[ But he complies, wanting to see the rest of her outfit. ]

[untodeath]

[ So that works! What an exhilarating feeling, having that sort of influence over William. ]

You are positively delectable.
What a lucky lady I am.

[ What he receives is a full body this time, camera held before her face. Her stockings are certainly the highlight of the outfit, red stilettos and opera gloves to match, along with a cute little bolero. Her hips are cocked, knee raised to conceal herself. Her arm is propped over her head, pushing her hair over partly out of her (mostly concealed) face. ]

[dead_serious]

[ Back in bed, William hasn't noticed that he's been subconsciously stroking the front of his shorts. ]

Brilliant, once again.
Leaving all the right places uncovered.
Who are you wearing all these for, anyway?

[untodeath]

Myself, mostly.
There's a freedom in empowering one's sexuality and nurturing the confidence that stems from it.
Why, do you really want to know who I've been sleeping with?
Are you jealous?

[dead_serious]

You've never spoke of anyone, so I assumed no one.
But having garments such as these suggested otherwise.

If you have been, I can't imagine what they must have been thinking.

[untodeath]

Now, that doesn't answer my question. No fair.
Well... What are you thinking?

[dead_serious]

No, I'm not jealous. They obviously mean nothing to you if you haven't even bothered to speak their name or show yourself with them.
I already doomed myself decades ago.

[untodeath]

Quite right. On both counts.
"Decades", though!
That's cute.

[ He will receive another photo; she's sitting on the floor, legs on either side on her, a hand planted on the ground between her spread knees. Her hair is over her shoulder, head tilted. ]

After all the effort it takes to get into latex, we might as well get more use out of it, you know.

[dead_serious]

It hasn't quite been two centuries.
I won't object to more photographs.
Though, you keep obstructing your face.

[untodeath]

Yes, well, I haven't any makeup on.
That would ruin the fantasy, wouldn't it!
I wouldn't object to more photographs either.

[dead_serious]

Not necessarily.
Though I don't believe I've seen you without it since Academy. ]

[ No new pics come through, mainly b/c William can't think of what to do that isn't a dick pic. ]

[untodeath]

[ Grell gives it a moment, expecting something. Now, she's just regarding her phone with a frowny pout! ]

Well, that's something to be reserved for a sleepover, I think.

[dead_serious]

A shame we can't have that sleepover tonight.

[ At this point he may as well go for it. There's no turning back! ]

[untodeath]

[ Oh w o w . Keep it together, Grell!!! ]

Can't we?

[ Breathe!!! ]

[dead_serious]

I don't see how. I am in Italy, if you have somehow forgotten.

[untodeath]

So, come get me.

[dead_serious]

[ William is heaving a sigh. It's the obvious solution, of course, but he was relaxed and comfortable in bed and now he has to put trousers on.

Grell won't get any text reply, but in 10 mins or so there will be a knock at her door. ]

[untodeath]

[ A part of Grell is fearful that he won't show - that he'll come to the conclusion that he's not thinking clearly, or that he'd be making a huge mistake! And so, that knock on her door might be the best sound she's ever heard.

Grell's pulled on an overcoat and trousers, though her gloves and stockings are still just visible beneath. As she's promised, she's left her face makeup free, even though it leaves her just the slightest bit bashful upon answering the door, tucking a bit of hair behind her ear. ]

You'd decided to keep me guessing, I see.

[dead_serious]

[ He'd almost expected her to answer the door without covering up at all. So when she's seen with a coat on, he's vaguely surprised. ]

Go get changed into the lace pants and shirt you were wearing earlier. We won't be having sex tonight, as I'm certain you were expecting.

[untodeath]

[ Grell blinks, surprise shifting to a faint furrow of the brows. ]

Was I?

[ Stepping back, she gestures with a sweep of her hand, wordlessly guiding him inside, before walking further in, herself. She removes her coat to carelessly toss over the couch, and unbutton her trousers on the way to her room. All the while, she calls back to him. ]

This entire evening has taken me by surprise!

[dead_serious]

To me as well.

[ He calls back, watching as she moves down the hall. He shakes his head at himself once shes gone. ]

Honestly, I must be going mad after all these years.

[untodeath]

Not mad enough, apparently.

[ She quips back! It will be a few minutes longer until she can wiggle out of all that latex by herself, though. ]

I-- do have to say, it will be... nice to speak about it in person, however.

[dead_serious]

[ When she returns he'll give her a look up and down, followed by an approving nod. ]

Certainly, yes. You may want to pack a few things, as well. You're off tomorrow, I believe?

[untodeath]

[ When he looks her over like that, she subconsciously stands in a more feminine way, sweeping her hair over her shoulder-- but when he mentions packing for the day after, that all goes out the window. Eyes alight, her hands clutch against her chest! ]

Why, yes, I am!

[ Grinning wide, she leans over to outstretch her hands to him. ]

Come with me, then♥

[dead_serious]

Why? Simply put a few items in a bag and we can go.

[ Instead of taking her hands, he frowns at them while adjusting his frames. ]
