Monday Night at 43 Unicorn

[mylandmyrules]

Nell had decided recently that living on Unicorn Street must have been a sign because the odds of her having such amazing things in her life had been as unlikely as finding a unicorn outside of Fandom.

She had decided to make a large batch of spgahetti for the gathering, one pot of sauce with meat and the other vegan. Surprisingly enough the pasta itself - most of them anyway - were actually vegan.

In any case, the rich smells of the sauce filled the house, welcoming whoever made it over tonight.

"It is," Nell said. "I mean, Liliana gave me that beautiful book for my plants, but a man - I know you're not like the men from back home, but I never could have imagined... it's different."

SHe couldn't begin to put into words why an unexpected gift from another woman was so different from a man buying her something, just because. And as if it was no big deal. "Anyway just... thank you. For always being you."

"Don't know anyone else I'd rather be," Gladio said, snorting faintly into Nell's hair, before pressing a kiss on the top of her head. "With anyone else, either. But if I'd have known this would be this big a hit, I'd've at least picked you up some fancier ones. Like the ones with the rhinestone words across the butts."

Nell pulled away enough to look up at him in mild horror. "No... there isn't such a thing. Is there?"

She shook her head. "Oh no, I'm not wearing any words across my bottom!"

And Gladio just had to grin fondly at Nell, her reaction to that perfectly unsurprising and all the better for it.

"Don't worry," he assured her, "the ones I got for you are totally plain and without embellishment. Just some nice, un-elaborate green, brown, and gray."

"Much better," she said. "Those I will wear very happily." Now that she'd started wearing sweatpants at least some of the time.

"And totally fine," Gladio said, since he was feeling the need to be particularly clear on a point like this for some reason, "if you wouldn't be, either. Completely up to you, and no business of mine."

"Thank you," she said, stretching up again to kiss him."You are very kind and thoughtful and I love you for it."
