[ Now, at least, she can offer a little smile.

That's... a little bit of a relief, actually. In spite of what she's said now and even before, she doesn't actually know what she would do if he said pretty much anything other than what he'd just said. It hasn't been that long since Keiji died, and--it would've been easier to fool around, maybe, if she knew he wasn't expecting anything else out of it. But the friend thing casts a different light on things. Still--that, she can do. That, she actually feels ready to do. She actually sighs. ]

Sure. Yes. We can do that.

...Right?

[nostalgiabomb]

I think so.

[ Well, that's the hope, at least. His answering smile is slight in return, almost shy. ]

I mean... assuming you're willing to cut me some slack. I'll probably need an adjustment period.

[stealwithit]

Nope. No slack at all for you. Either we're doing our nails together and talking about boys right away or I'm out.

[nostalgiabomb]

[ That surprises a laugh from him. ]

You don't do anything halfway, do you?

[stealwithit]

[ Kasumi, in turn, flashes a smile at him. ]

I'd be pretty terrible at my job if I did, Star-Lord.

[nostalgiabomb]

I, uh, think it might be best if we leave the code names for when I'm actually on the clock, if it's all the same.

[stealwithit]

Not even on your own ship? Alright. Your place, your rules.

[nostalgiabomb]

[ He lifts a shoulder in a shrug. ]

I make a point of keeping my work and personal life separate.
