[ She laughs quietly despite herself, because it's adorable how he looks so forlorn, like he's just in need of a cuddle. When he scoots over, she wraps her arms around him -- it's all right, they can just settle here and not do anything. Mako is quite good with that. ]
No, you don't. Your brother is pretty cool. [ Even if he just killed Raleigh's boner, but boys will be boys, right? Mako kisses his cheek lightly, before reaching for her underwear and her shirt. ]
[In moments like this, it's when Raleigh totally forgets what Yancy's done for him. Like stay up all night and help him write his lit paper. Like teach how to throw a punch properly. Like when Dad left, Yancy stepped up, took care of him, cooked dinner, did the laundry, let Raleigh sleep in his room for like a month straight.
But who the fuck cares because Yancy also just cockblocked him and ruined his entire life.]
[ Raleigh forgets but Mako doesn't -- well, she's trying super hard not to, especially since Yancy pretty much ruined her time with Raleigh right about now. But then he's a good brother and Mako will endeavour to be the voice of reason to Raleigh's adorable tantrum.
She smiles and kisses his temple when she pulls on her clothes, feeling oddly awkward but fighting that down anyway. Yancy, good. Yes. Yancy's good.
Bumping her nose against his lightly, she snuggles down to his pillow. Might as well try to take a nap, yes? Lemonade out of lemons, and all that. ] Rope, kitchen knife, or fire?
[He's not throwing a tantrum. Yancy is legit the worst person ever. You know what they could be making right now instead of lemonade? Sex.
Raleigh doesn't bother putting on his clothes, fine laying around in his boxers and it's not like it matters if he wears clothes or not because his life is over.]
[ Yes he is, and it's absolutely adorable. And they're not making anything! Mako still likes the way he looks, laying around beside her and she's rolling onto her side, her arm draping over his waist.
Pressing a soft kiss to his shoulder, she makes a soft noise of assent. ]
Maybe next time, Raleigh. There is no rush, right?
[Raleigh will admit to pouting, but nothing else. And he won't say that Yancy is good at anything because they could be having sex right now. Glorious sex.
[ Mmhmm, glorious sex with Raleigh -- that has potential. Mako sometimes wonders what he's like, she can't lie about that, but then she thinks of his unbridled enthusiasm and realises that she probably has an idea.
If he's anything like the way he makes out with her, well...
[Raleigh doesn't have to wonder about what Mako's like. Because he's got two modes: normal and turned on and both of them really like everything about her and he just knows that it's going to be awesome.
Right now though, he makes kind of a half dying whale noise that's disgusted and upset and wow. Thank you Yancy for ruining his life, once again.]
Do you... want me to? [Because honestly, he didn't have any problem with the way they did things until Yancy pointed it out. Mako likes to take charge and he... really likes it when she's on top of him. Win/win, right?]
[ He's adorable, though -- Mako's getting more amused than anything now, and come on, it's not that bad, right? Staying nestled against him, Mako thinks about the possible answers to that. Yes, she likes it when he lets her take charge, she likes the way he looks up at her and how he so happily indulges. She likes him, and it's really true that she likes being on top more than anything else.
Still, this is a question worth considering. Hmmm. Mako has her moods -- she generally likes to take charge, but there are times when she'd have liked him to be dominant; that's normal, right? ]
[Here lies Raleigh Becket, killed by overwhelming shame. That's what his gravestone is going to read.
Raleigh makes another distressed noise, more upset that Yancy was right and less about what she just said. If his brother hadn't said a thing and she'd been the one to suggest it? No big deal. He would roll her over right now and go to town.]
[ Oh, her poor puppy. Mako huffs quietly and grasps his chin so that he'll look at her -- nothing seems to be working to cheer him up, and Mako kisses him anyway. ]
I love you, Raleigh. Whether you're good or bad at something, it's not going to change. [ She smiles briefly, contemplatively. ] Maybe the time wasn't right for us to go further, that's all.
[ hush, puppy. Mako happily lets him kiss her, indulging and responding with a sweet warmth and longing before she hums. ] Plan? Like flowers and a date before that?
[Because her dad would be able to sense it. Even if he wasn't home at the time and across the world-- he'd know that Raleigh was having sex with Mako under his roof and then Raleigh would be worm food.]
Me? No. I always want your dad to travel safe but if he takes a detour to China or Japan or Hawaii, then I'll just have to keep on keeping you company. Making sure you stay out of trouble.
[ Mako is giggling now, because the idea of that is so ridiculous and adorable that she breaks the kiss to play with his hair, pretending to spike them individually to try to see what he looks like. ]
What happens to your spiked hair when you have to wear a helmet?

No, you don't. Your brother is pretty cool. [ Even if he just killed Raleigh's boner, but boys will be boys, right? Mako kisses his cheek lightly, before reaching for her underwear and her shirt. ]
Should I leave...?

He sighs after a moment and nuzzles into her.]
Do you think I get on top enough?

If he's anything like the way he makes out with her, well...
Still, she blinks at the question. What? ]
Not... usually. Why?

He won't. He's on a business trip in Hong Kong for the next two weeks.

Really? And he left you alone when he knows that you have a scoundrel boyfriend?

It's like you're wishing for him to come back early.

Where he's concerned, you are the trouble. Are you telling me I should stay away from you?
no subject
[Raleigh is smirking at her.]
Does that mean I'm dangerous? And a badass?
no subject
But Mako's not Yancy and Mako adores Raleigh and she just drags him over to kiss her. ]
Yes. You could be my very own dangerous badass.
no subject
Raleigh is smiling the whole time they kiss because he can't stop because he's just so. So stupidly in love with this girl.]
Excellent. I'm going to get a motorcycle and start spiking my hair.
