Raleigh sighs like a man who knows that he's not going to have any sex tonigth, and resigned to that fact. Not that he's mad, he gets it, they have a busy life and a curious toddler and that's not very good conditions for an active sex life. But he is kind of disappointed, little Raleigh made a pretty good effort at staying around even when she wasn't.]
I'm sorry. I guess we have to start locking that door.
[ She's sorry, baby. Here, have some kisses to make up for the disappointment. Mako's pretty bummed out too, and she doesn't need to be a mind-reader to be aware of what Raleigh's feeling. Holding him closer, content to just snuggle even if they're not going to have sex anytime tonight, she sighs and nods. ]
And look into getting a babysitter. We could plan a night out, just the two of us. [ Her fingers drift lightly over his chest, thoughtful and contemplative. ] One day.
[Raleigh's always content to have her close. There is honestly never a moment when he wants to push her away, and the lack of sex is disappointing but it's not enough to ever want to be away from her.]
[ It's what she loves about him; their love isn't contingent on how sexually intimate they are, and it's a relief to know that. Smiling, she basks in the moment, allowing his closeness to drive everything else away as she thinks on it. ]
I can always make arrangements. [ Bumping her nose against his, she muses. ] What are you thinking?
[Raleigh can't make the same kind of arrangements because he does have a week off coming up in a few weeks for spring break. How silly is this, he's thirty and thinking about what he's going to do for spring break with his hot wife.]
[ Mako perks up, because she'd almost forgotten that spring break exists for Raleigh and that's always a perfect time for a getaway. Summer holidays were even better, but sometimes Raleigh picks up temp jobs, or to use that time for his hobbies.
Said hot wife is busy contemplating the potential of that, then. ] A beach.
[ Mako hasn't worn a proper bikini in a long, long time, and the idea of swimming in the surf makes her tingle. Think of the cold water, and the sun on her skin. Or basking next to her half-naked, recklessly handsome husband? ]
[What is she talking about? Mako is one of his hobbies.
Sometimes Raleigh thinks that he has a love/hate relationship with the ocean. Where he's lost so much to it but he can't ever bring himself to hate it. Especially not a clear, white sandy beach with no sign of kaiju anywhere. That's what they fought for isn't it?]
Mako loves the ocean -- loves what it means; she'd lost family to it, too, but they've left her, them a legacy, a reminder to live, and live well, for all those who couldn't.
It's what they fought for, and it's what they'll keep fighting for, no matter who the threat is. She brightens, because she's actually getting quite sick of chilly weather right now, thank you very much. ]

The beach. I miss the waves.
