Shadowcat has posed:
There were text messages exchanged all day between Kitty and Peter, off and on. Some sweet, some funny, and others just chatting. The last few had been of a slightly different tone. 'Something happening, out of touch.' Then an hour later. 'Everything ok.' And finally not long after, asking if Peter felt like at rip to Coney Island.

Kitty gets there, moving over to the start of the boardwalk. She's wearing a very nice white sundress with purple floral designs. It is strapless but for two little bands that hang down her about upper arms, something about the cut suggestive, especially combined with a low neckline. The garment's hem hangs open on front of one leg, showing more thigh than on the other side. A pair of designer sandals adorn her feet, and a small choker is worn about her neck.

Kitty relaxes back against the wooden railing along the boardwalk's edge, glancing about and people watching while keeping an eye out for Peter.

Spider-Man has posed:
Pete was spinning around in his chair at the bugle with his phone his hands, sending texts back and forth with a huge grin... at least until 'something happening going dark'... then he became a nervous ball of energy... waiting and checking and checking and waiting until Robby finally told him to take an early day and go home.

He wasnt eorking anyways.

2hen he got the all clear, a weight lifted off him... and he nearly collapsed on the floor, 'Ill be right there' a half second later, 'im going to ask but you dont have to tell me.. see you soon'

And he is there soon. Spying Kitty and coming over as casually as he can, grinning.. but with a nervous quality to it. She looks fine, she looks amazing actually, but will that stop him worrying about someone who is, in fact, a hero too?

Nope. He cares for her too much for that.

Sheepishly, Pete slides up closer and leans overnas if to kiss her lightly. "So.. you look really great.."

Shadowcat has posed:
Kitty Pryde looks up as she sees Peter Parker coming her way. She looks like she's just suddenly had the day made perfect. Her smile grows slowly, before the young woman looks down with a bashful smile. The toe of her sandal digging at one of the boardwalk's wooden planks.

Kitty looks back up, and that impression of a school girl with her heart showing in her eyes has never been more vivid than now. When Peter reaches her, Kitty's hands move to rest on his hips. She leans in close as well, offering him a slow, soft kiss of greeting before pulling her head back. "Thank you," she says, smiling warmly as he compliments her. "You are a sight for sore eyes," she tells him.

The girl - his girl - slips her fingers over into Peter's hand. "I hope I didn't pull you away from anything too important," she tells him. If he's ready, she starts walking slowly down the boardwalk, but the pace is that of someone focusing all of her attention on her companion, rather than on their surroundings.

Coney Island can wait. Peter is here.

Spider-Man has posed:
Pete immediately feels relief when she leans into him and smiles adoringly at her after that soft kiss. Its an amazing thing how something so tender can make so much difference, but theres still clear worry in his eyes..

"I dont want to sound like a hypocrite..." he betins it slowly, "..but I got a little worried.. I know you would be fine, that you would have said if I needed to worry... but not being able to do 'anything' to help you was making me anxious.."

His fingers slide down into hers, only paying as much attention as he needs to anywhere else but Kits beside him. Aglfter just a few steps, he loops his arm around her shoulder without releasing her fingers and side glances with a little half smile, "But you're okay.. so dont worry about me. Anything I was doing, not nearly as important as seeing you. Robbie gave me the day off anyways."

Shadowcat has posed:
Kitty Pryde leans in against Peter as his arm goes around her. She smiles to him as if being in his embrace makes all right with the world. "I wasn't at risk. Or, well, I wasn't," she tells him. "A friend and ally was in trouble and called. They were badly hurt, but the threat was already gone. I got them to a healer, and then let you know I was ok," she explains as they walk along the boardwalk. The sound of the carnival games and the happy laughter of the children is a bit of a contrast to her tale.

Kitty smiles over to Peter. "I don't want to make you worry, but I know we'll both worry some. Still, I accept you have to do what you do, Peter. I don't want you to change for me," she tells him. She rests her head lightly against his shoulder.

"God you feel so good," she says, grinning and looking over to Peter. "So what did you do the with day off anyway? And, you know I don't really know too much about what you do at the Bugle either, I realized when we were talking with May."

Spider-Man has posed:
"I dont ever want you to feel like I expect you to change..." Peter says after a moment, smiling, but with a little shadow behind it, "But if I didn't worry and want to be there, not to protect you, but to stand beside you... Whay kind of boyfriend am I?" And he'd definitrly expect the same. Kissing her temple and moving just slightly so his got her shoulder against his chest.

"I'm a little impressed, actually... managed to save a person, get them healed, change into something cute... meanwhile I'd probably still have on my costume and smell like a dumpster..." Hes joking, but it isnt not true...

"Well, that's because youre here... Ive felt myself alone... wss not impressed.." playfully nudging with his shoulder. "Uuh.. finished a new typeface for the online edition of the bugle and updated the server software for JJJs social media account.. turns out hes not very popular with the online community.." Forehead canting forward against her hair.

"I dont know what Id without you, now... I really like this feeling. Completeness.."

Shadowcat has posed:
Kitty strolls alongside Peter, her attention mostly on him. Eyes taking in the mop of slightly wavy brown hair. The boyish face, even at his age, that somehow just adds to those schoolgirl feelings she gets around him. Her eyes drift down to his shoulders for a moment, and he'll likely know she's remembering just how amazing his body is even if the shirt doesn't quite show it.

"Oh, I've heard pretty good things about someone from Queens and what he's been able to accomplish," Kitty counters. She pauses in their stroll to turn and look over to Peter. "That's a good word. How I feel with you," she tells him. Kitty slips both hands over, holding both of Peter's for a moment. "You lighten my heart, Peter. It's such a special quality you bring to the world. And I'm probably selfish for wanting it to myself, but... well, the world already has the other guy. Peter Parker is mine," she tells him with a small grin. She leans over to kiss him softly, the kiss short, but sweet. She glances towards the midway and the various carnival games. "Win your girlfriend a stuffed animal?" she asks him warmly.

Spider-Man has posed:
Pete squeezes his arms a little to hoist Kitty off her feet.. not far and not long, "Now youre just trying to flatter me... feel free to keep going, Ill never get tired of hearing you say it." setting her back down with a grin as they ro7nd the boardwalk towards the midway...

"Man, wait til I tell the other guy 'I' got the girl.." A playful grin is sent at Kitty... that becomes an equally playful smirk. His shoulder flexes, but mostly just as a short tease when she lesns in for thst soft kiss.. already shifting a little to stsnd infront of her with his hands back waiting for her to take them. Leading thrm torwards a ball toss.. "You know Im about to break this gsmes heart right? When my girl wants a prize, she gets it."

fishing money a pocket to purchase some baseballs to throw at stacked, and weighted, milk jugs. One flies out of his hand and hits the bottom of thr trio of stacked jugs sending thr scattere airborne. Then a second, third, and fourth, smacking them right out of the air.

"Does showing off get me bonus points?" brow raised, grinning back at Kitty... the guy running the game just stares with his mouth hanging wide.

Shadowcat has posed:
Kitty gives a warm giggle as she's lifted bodily. "Ok, just for the record, this is a big turn on," she whispers, lest any kids in the area hear that. She leans over to steal a kiss from Peter before he's set her down again.

The ringing of bells and flashing of lights makes it seem like there are winners all over, though not that many people are carrying around anything but the small prizes. Kitty moves over to Peter as he gets the baseballs. She brushes a quick kiss to his lips. "For luck," she says, moving away in in that white dress that may not be the same style as Leia, but Kitty still wears it well.

She can't help but giggle at the carnie's half-smirk as he regard's Peter's medium-sized frame. BUt then Peter puts on a show with the baseballs, leaving the man gaping. Kitty moves back over, hand resting on the small of Peter's back. "Which one do you think?" she asks, eyeing the assortment of large stuffed animals that hang from the ceiling of the stand.

Spider-Man has posed:
"Working as intended." Pete teases when Kitty informs him of the turn on, kissing her cheek in the process. With the jugs spinning on the floor still, Pete puts on a mick grimmace and holds his hands up in a helpless little shrug, "Don' look at me, pal... she kissed me for luck." Motioning with both hands turned towards Kitty, playful grin and a wink srnt off in her direction.

But theres a prize to chose... snd theyve the run of the roost. Pete leans up on the counter as if hes having troublr seeing the giant Lime Green, floppy eared bunny. "I dont know... they all look good.." Nudging closer to Kits beside him until his shoulder is right up against hers, "sssss... how do you feel about bunnies?"

Moving now only to step behind her with that white dress and wrap his arms around her waist. It might not look exactly like Leia's, but "Which ever one you want, your worshipfulness."

Shadowcat has posed:
Kitty's face can't really contain her delight as she stands with Peter, letting him pick the trophy he'd most like for her. She leans over against him, as if to get her head near to his to see the stuffed animals from his point of view.

The question gets a soft, "oooohhh..." from Kitty. "Please, the big green bunny?" Kitty asks Peter, her arm slipping about his lower back. "IT's so... floppy. I love it," she tells him.

Kitty's eyes flash with warmth as she leans back into Peter as he moves behind her. Her arms fold atop of his own as if she doesn't plan to have him let go of her anytime soon. Kitty nods to the carnie as Peter confirms her choice, and the man gets it down. "Look here, we got a winner! See how easy it is!?" he shouts, turning his loss into publicity.

Spider-Man has posed:
"You heard the Princess." Pete confirms her selection with a grin to the carnie, his chin lowering down to rest on Kitty's shoulder. "I bet Lockheed loves it.. nice stuffed lap?" Words said against her neck, quiet, waiting for the bunny to be pulled down and handed over.

"Thanks bud!" He waits for Kits to get her hugs in on the stuffed prize before offering to carry it for her with hands held away from her abdomen.. clearly hes just as content to remain there with his arms around her. Only once someone else steps up to try their luck does he start moving them, using his hip to steer her direction with a little grin visible in the reflective surface of another game.

"Hungry? You will find... oh!" His grin doubles, "May told me if I ever screw this up.." He sure doesnt plan on that, "..shes disowning me and adopting you... I thought youd like to know. She really loved meeting you."

Shadowcat has posed:
Kitty takes the bunny, hugging the trophy won by her champion. "He'll either love it, or set it on fire," she kids, and sighing as she feels his breath against her neck. When it's time she moves aside with him to make way for more customers. "Hungry," Kitty agrees, looking around for what they might find that looks interesting. Fried chicken. Deep fried twinkies. Great big things of mutton like you'd find a RenFair. Elephant ears and funnel cakes. Sandwiches and hoagies. "Ok, you get to pick," she tells him with a grin.

Kitty lets Peter carry the bunny while she slips an arm about his waist. "She said that did she?" Kitty asks, her face a huge grin. "She's so sweet. I really do like her. And I can see how you ended up being so wonderful, knowing she raised you," Kitty says, leaning her head against Peter.

Spider-Man has posed:
"So Im either his hero or a fire hazard... I love life in black and white." Pete plays right back nudging his hip again so theyre headed in the direction of the funnel cake stand. Once she hands off the bunny, he tucks it under an arm, but the other is free to wrap around her shoulders. Turn his head while they wait in line to kiss the top of her scalp.
"She did... snd Im pretty sure she means it too.. but she's right.. anyone who would willingly or through the course of action push someone as great as you, doesnt deserve an aunt like May." He genuinely loves that woman who gave up most of her own young life to raise him as if he were her own... which... in almost every way, he is.

"You really know just what to say.." His head tilting towards hers in turn as they step to the booth, "and what can I get the handsome couple?" Petr grin beams hesring it spoken, dork flag flying, glsncing to Kitty, "Want to share one?"

Shadowcat has posed:
Kitty has her arms freed once she passes off the huge stuffed animal to Peter, allowing her to slip them about his waist and gently rest against his torso while they wait in line. "It means a lot that she feels that way," Kitty says, smiling brightly. "I can't wait for you to meet Mom and Dad. You might have to go to Genosha to meet Dad though. He can be kind of gruff, but if you win my Mom over, that's pretty much all it will take with him," she tells Peter.

The man in the booth gets a silly grin from Kitty when he calls them a handsome couple. "He's the handsome one, I'm just the lucky one," she tells the man. "One funnel cake, lots of powdered sugar," she orders. She pays for it, shooing away any attempts by Peter to do so. He has the carry the bunny, anyway. "And a pair of frozen Cokes," she adds, getting the two cups of Coke Icee and then adding straws to them.

Kitty spots a table nearby and walks over towards it, taking a seat where Peter can sit beside her. She sets the plate between them and gives Peter his coke. "Thank you for coming out tonight," she tells him. "I kind of needed it after earlier, I think."

Spider-Man has posed:
Pete do3s try to pay and furrows his brow a little but without losing his grin. He was trying to shuffle the bunny to get to his wallet snd it was going to be a scene, so... he relents with a shoulder nudge a wave to the vendor once theyve gotten their treats.

Bunny gets his own seat on one side of the picnic table as Pete slips around on Kitty' to drop down one to the booth. He reaches out for one of thr frozen cokes, but it was clearly a ploy! A TRAP, reaching for the further so he's forced, by the laws of mass and distsnce, to brush up closer to her beside him.

And they say science isnt sexy.

"You never have to thsnk m3 for coming out with you, Kits. It is thr highlight of my day... and six hours ago I was swinging down Broadway chasing a speeding honda, so I just want you to really was a prestigious level I have ascribed to your company." Grinning around his straw.. Blue eyes cast up and overs, beautiful and dark..

"I... yeah. friends getting hurt is rough, but... I think its good thst you were there. Able to get to them, I mean. Got them to help.. Im glad everything worked out, but it sounds like it did because of you."

"so... i think you were wrong back there with the funnel guy.. Im the lucky one. We all are. Anyone who knows you ie better for it."
