When he mentioned 'writing it out', she tilted her head in confusion. She didn't bother questioning it though, just giggling at his reaction to her request.

Once she had the mitt on and took the tray, she took a moment to get on tip toe to gently kiss his cheek. "Thank you~!"

She did take the opportunity to grab a few ingredients to make a test batch of icing for the cookies, humming along to the music again. Is it selfish of her to hope that they can get more moments like this?

[Phone call, Xavier's voice sounds urgent] "I'm in great danger I need you to come downstairs right now. Please! You're the only one that can help. In fact, the entire complex may be in danger if you don't help me stop this right now."

As soon as she registered the urgency and he mentioned 'upstairs', Lily was rushing out of her apartment, only sparing enough time to grab her guns as a precaution.

"I'm on my way!" She reassured as she hurried upthe flight of stairs between them. Her thoughts were already racing a mile a minute, wondering what could possibly be causing Xavier of all people to struggle and call for help, especially without causing much of a ruckus.

By the time she reached his door her heart was pounding and she was braced for a fight.

Lily flushed at the affections, giggling a little as she slowly released him to prepare the last batch of cookies for the oven.

"So XaviLily's Bakery, then?" she asked with a wistful hum, expression soft as her thoughts unintentionally mirrored his own. All the times she had dreamt of domesticity and peace like this, but doubted she'd get to have it for any number of reasons.

"Anything else I want...," she mused, drawing out the syllables as she pretended to think hard about any further requests, "Could you please put this in the oven for me?" she asked playfully, offering the prepared tray to him with a smile. "If you want, I can start on an icing for them, too?"

[Phone call, Xavier's voice sounds urgent] "I'm in great danger I need you to come downstairs right now. Please! You're the only one that can help. In fact, the entire complex may be in danger if you don't help me stop this right now."

The Evol-bulb made her snort, shaking her head at his shenanigans. Not that she blames him since she really wouldn't be any better, if given an Evol she could properly play with.

His answer distracted her from that train of thought, giggling and shaking her head. "That wouldn't give you enough credit," she insisted, only about half-playful. If they were to actually work together on something like a bakery, to put their names on it, she'd want to ensure that he got equal credit at the very least!

By the time she reached his door her heart was pounding and she was braced for a fight.

The exaggerated playfulness had Lily's giggles turning into proper laughter, still finding herself leaning into him for support. She hid her face in his arm once more, one of her arms looped around his and holding it close to her.

"You are such a dork!"

His musing about a bakery made her snort, tilting her head back slightly to look up at him. "What would we call it?"

[Phone call, Xavier's voice sounds urgent] "I'm in great danger I need you to come downstairs right now. Please! You're the only one that can help. In fact, the entire complex may be in danger if you don't help me stop this right now."

Lily snorted and moved to pat his back instead when he came closer, giggling quietly at his dramatics.

"Okay, okay, I'm sorry for being such a cruel bodyguard and attacking you," she teased, not sounding the least bit apologetic, "we can go get you some hot chocolate, okay?"

She didn't mind his exaggeration, if only because it was so clearly over the top. That, and she'd never turn down an excuse for a hot drink.

❄️ -@artistrafayel

Send ❄️ to throw a snowball at Lily!

Lily yelped in surprise at the sudden impact before turning to Rafayel, seeming almost offended for all of... two seconds.

A wide grin spread across her face as she leaned down to make a snowball of her own. "Are you sure you want to play this game~?" she asked playfully, glancing up at him from where her hands were making quick work of the snow.

Cheering at the successful hit, Lily laughed as she slowed to a jog in order to catch up with him, her face flushed from the cold wind and the laughter.

"Okay, truce?" She asked through giggles, even offering a hand for him to shake. Her cheeks hurt in the best way, and she figures they're pretty even again. "Hopefully I didn't hit you too hard?"

Happy New Years! <3

Wishing everyone a happy new year, and all of the best!

May the world be kinder, and your heart fuller!

Half of Lily's strategy in life is throwing people off, so realizing he hadn't expected that earned excited laughter as she continued her pursuit. "Oh~? Did you perhaps underestimate your bodyguard~?" she teased. When she managed to feel relatively confident that she could make the shot, she threw the snowball at his back. Of course, she did her best to ensure she wouldn't risk hitting him in the head or anything!

❄️

Send ❄️ to throw a snowball at Lily!

Lily jolted at the sudden chill that hit her skin, quickly turning her attention towards the source.

"Xavier??" She asked, pouting at him playfully. "How cruel, to hit me while I'm not looking."

Not that that stopped the giggles that bubbled up as she shook some of the snow from her hair, dipping down for just a moment to grab a fist full of snow to throw at him in turn. Here's to hoping she doesn't manage to face plant into the snow instead-

I never got around to posting this here, but I DID edit a full body design for her!

With all the hype for the next chapter of Love and Deepspace, I felt inclined to try and figure out how I keep picturing Lily presenting herself in the N109 zone!

Xavier said it won't work if it's not intimidating enough, and she took that to heart and channeled her inner villain for her new aesthetic :P

Lily has updated her profile picture!

As a heads up, I'm trying to work on revamping this account a little, cleaning up my tagging system and such. So bear with me if things look kinda messy!

When he set the tray on the counter, Lily moved to stand next to him and look at the cookies. She was momentarily distracted from her appraisal by his comment about thinking of her hair, flushing before laughing a little, hiding her face in his arm for a moment. "Just remember, you can't eat my hair," she teased, scrunching her nose up playfully.

Humming approvingly, she nodded and patting his shoulder excitedly, beaming up at him. "These look perfect! Good call! Give them a bit to cool, then we can put them on the plate with the others."

[Phone call, Xavier's voice sounds urgent] "I'm in great danger I need you to come downstairs right now. Please! You're the only one that can help. In fact, the entire complex may be in danger if you don't help me stop this right now."

As soon as she registered the urgency and he mentioned 'upstairs', Lily was rushing out of her apartment, only sparing enough time to grab her guns as a precaution.

"I'm on my way!" She reassured as she hurried upthe flight of stairs between them. Her thoughts were already racing a mile a minute, wondering what could possibly be causing Xavier of all people to struggle and call for help, especially without causing much of a ruckus.

By the time she reached his door her heart was pounding and she was braced for a fight.

Interesting... I wasn't expecting this much of an even split!

Perhaps I'm just that photogenic~

The idea of doing something similar to an outfit swap made Lily giggle, nodding approvingly. "I'd be willing to do that, it sounds like fun!"

When the server showed up, she leaned back slightly to make it easier for them to put down their food, thanking them quietly.

"That's true, I wonder how many people would notice that it's not our usual styles..." She mused thoughtfully as she took her first bite of food. Once she had the chance to process the taste, she hummed happily and nodded.

Quickly swallowing her food to not talk with her mouth full, she added "No kidding, this really is good! I need to make sure to come back again at some point. This was a wonderful suggestion!"

"Oh, wait! Before you leave, what color do you think the jacket should b—" Not looking away from the clothing rack in front of her, she grabs the sleeve of the person nearest to her without thinking, and realizes a little too late that it felt... Different. She turns, blinking; the person she'd been talking to had left, and beside her instead was...

"Wait, you're—! Lily?! You're Lily, right?! Oh, my god, I am so sorry, I totally thought you were someone else! Gosh, and this is the first time I'm actually talking to you, too..."

—&&. @kaiakaya 🤍

Lily was more than a little startled to suddenly feel her sleeve grabbed while she was looking for a new jacket to replace her favorite one that has... been through it. It's getting a few small holes in it but she's already mended it so many times it's time to retire it.

She blinked in surprise at Kaia for a moment before she started laughing, keeping it relatively quiet for the moment so they don't draw too much attention.

"Yes, I'm Lily. You're Kaia, right?" She asked, hoping she doesn't make a fool of herself.

At Kaia's concerns about how this is the first time they're speaking, she shook her head with a smile and waved a hand dismissively. "It's alright, don't worry!" She reassured easily "Do you need help finding the person you're here with?" She offered, tilting her head slightly.

The question prompted her to laugh, glancing over her shoulder at him. "Right, we want to avoid them being blackened anywhere. Make sure that they aren't shiny at all, paying close attention to the center. Use an oven mitt and give the tray a tiny shake. If they jiggle, they need a bit longer. If they don't jiggle, they should be good."

She wanted to give him the chance to check them over himself first and try to make a call before she went to give her own verdict. Low stakes practice!

As she placed the last cookie from the first batch on the plate, she debated grabbing one to try herself since it had already cooled off. Plus then they could see if they should make an icing for it...

[Phone call, Xavier's voice sounds urgent] "I'm in great danger I need you to come downstairs right now. Please! You're the only one that can help. In fact, the entire complex may be in danger if you don't help me stop this right now."

By the time she reached his door her heart was pounding and she was braced for a fight.

Lily felt her cheeks warm at his proximity, only to flush fully at the small kiss.

After everything they've been through, she'd think that she would be harder to fluster, but well... apparently not! Not that she's complaining, either.

Seeing him grab the plate helped to draw her attention away from the fluster, giggling softly at how cute the plate was. "A wonderful choice for red velvet."

Accepting the spatula, she took to humming as she started to carefully remove the cookies from the tray and only the plate. Her eyebrows were furrowed ever so slightly in concentration, as though she were working on something far more important than simply moving cookies.

"Do you mind checking on the batch in the oven? They should be ready here soon."

[Phone call, Xavier's voice sounds urgent] "I'm in great danger I need you to come downstairs right now. Please! You're the only one that can help. In fact, the entire complex may be in danger if you don't help me stop this right now."

By the time she reached his door her heart was pounding and she was braced for a fight.

Perhaps she was more in-tune with him than she thought, because as he stared almost longingly at the other cookies, she had only one guess what was on his mind. 

"Don't...." She warned gently, her shoulders relaxing when he seemed to decide against burning his mouth further. Shaking her head affectionately, she grabbed a mitt to playfully nudge the hot tray just a little further away from him. 

"Where would you be without me?" Lily echoed, the sincerity of the question catching her off guard. In hopes of keeping the mood light, she laughed a little and cupped her chin thoughtfully. "Hmmm, well, I suppose you wouldn't have burned your mouth in your excitement to try the cookies."

[Phone call, Xavier's voice sounds urgent] "I'm in great danger I need you to come downstairs right now. Please! You're the only one that can help. In fact, the entire complex may be in danger if you don't help me stop this right now."

By the time she reached his door her heart was pounding and she was braced for a fight.

Lily didn't even have the opportunity to warn him about how hot they'd be fresh out of the oven, just letting out a small sigh to keep from laughing at such a familiar mistake.

She took a moment to quickly get a cup of cool water to offer for him with one hand, the other hand gently reaching to take the plate from him as well. "Here, drink this to cool off your mouth." She instructed gently.

Any semblance of scolding can be saved for when he's not at notable risk of burning his mouth, and even then, it was adorable. That he was so excited to eat the sweets they'd made that he apparently forgot that they were hot out of the oven.

[Phone call, Xavier's voice sounds urgent] "I'm in great danger I need you to come downstairs right now. Please! You're the only one that can help. In fact, the entire complex may be in danger if you don't help me stop this right now."

By the time she reached his door her heart was pounding and she was braced for a fight.

Giggles began to mix into the melody as she hummed with him, spinning with his help and a proper laugh.

This is it. This is the kind of moment she's always silently dreamed for. Getting to just be happy and silly in the safety of home, dancing with someone she loves and baking. What more could she ask for?

When he released her to check on the cookies, she went back to humming. Satisfied with how they looked, she found some oven mitts to pull out the tray and set it aside to cook before putting the next tray in.

"Oh that's right!" She beamed as she closed the oven, setting the mitts aside again. "Hopefully they aren't sold out already, because it would be fun if we got to go." She hummed thoughtfully, resetting the timer on her phone.

[Phone call, Xavier's voice sounds urgent] "I'm in great danger I need you to come downstairs right now. Please! You're the only one that can help. In fact, the entire complex may be in danger if you don't help me stop this right now."

By the time she reached his door her heart was pounding and she was braced for a fight.

Catching his expectant look, she laughed softly and checked the timer herself. "Just a couple more minutes then we can check them." She reassured, finishing her tidying up as she started to sway to the music he chose.

Giving an affirmative nod to his question, she couldn't help but playfully do a semi-dance while still working on prepping for the next batch so she can toss that in once the first batch was done. She took to half-humming, half-singing along to the music.

Though she did take a short break to gently take his hand to 'dance' with him, grinning up at him playfully as she still hummed along.
