It was a quiet day at the Garage.

Not many customers, maybe one or two that came in and Johnny took care of at least one of them, probably to let Mercy take care of the other. But, with a hard work's effort and likely no sign of anyone else coming in for remodeling or repairs.

So what is Johnny doing now you ask?

Making good use of Mercy's couch apparently. He's napping, but of course, his coworker, friend, and boss could wake him up whenever she wanted.

Mercy Thompson has posed:
Mercy could wake her colleague up...if she wasn't a minute's walk away. She's been on a shopping trip for baking things given she's got this hankering for cookies and baking things. Her oven in the living area's getting lonely, as she strolls in, crefully (but noisily) closing the bay doors. Way to let everyone know the shop's shut Mercy. She strolls through to the living area and stretches, popping her back. Sliding the bag on the table, Mercy begins pullling things out for baking

"Hey, Johnny, You awake?" Mercy calls leaving the living area door open. If anything, she'll bake and if that won't wake Johnny up....she's no idea what will. Maybe a bucket of ice water? Nah. Baking's the safer, tastier option as Mercy grabs aa mixing bowl. Looking over, Mercy's settling into this. It's....not anywhere near done, she's just started yet.

Ghost Rider (Blaze) has posed:
Johnny seems to grumble and stir a little bit. "Oh hey beautiful, welcome home." Johnny teases her in a mockery of the 'honey I'm home' line. Maybe just a little flirty too. But he stays on the couch as he smells her baking. "...are you making cookies?"

Because if she is, this day just got a whole lot better.

Johnny sits up and rubs his forehead a bit. That was a good catnap.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller comes knocking on the door when he finds the Bay doors are shut. The big man has a large wrapped box under his arm, and is whistling a happy tune. He waits patiently at the door.

Mercy Thompson has posed:
Mercy grins to Johnny. "Catnap. Being spaced out on my couch. Yes. Cookies if you'd like to help" she says perking up. "I hear whistling outside. Somebody's out there and whistling, too.

Mercy strolls over lazily and opens the bay door. "Heya JM, come on in" she says. "I was going to bake cookies...wait...wait....what's in the box?" she asks, curiosity piqued as Mercy's a curious little....well...five feet six inch coyote. Looking over, Mercy grins. "C'mon in, you can help bake if you want?" she offers with a grin.

Ghost Rider (Blaze) has posed:
Johnny yawns as he gets up off the touch, though at the whistling, Johnny's protective instincts kick in and he's watching the door. But then it just turns out to be a regular homey. So he gives a wave. "Hey." He stretches a bit, then looks at the box, apparently his own curiosity was piqued. Whatever was inside it, Johnny's gonna help with the cookies.

Just gotta be sure.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller leans down and kisses Mercy on the cheek, and steps inside with the box it has a bit of metal and plastic rattle t it "Well it might be a present for someone, that I found on my last trip back home to check on some things.

Mercy Thompson has posed:
Mercy returns the kiss and looks to the box. "Plastic, metal. Hey if you brought me a bomb I'll start running" she jokes. "Seriously though, thanks. I appreciate it" Mercy grins then carefully opens the box.

"You....got me bits of VW Vanagons?" Mercy asks with a grin. "Alright, today is going great. Cookies, Vanagon parts. Let's get baking shall we?" Mercy asks with a grin and a happy little clap and a spring to her step. Cookies are apparently a great idea. Mercy's pretty much skipping to the mixing bowl in her kitchen, excited to bake now with these two fine people.

Ghost Rider (Blaze) has posed:
Johnny looks at Joseph then and then to Mercy, apparently grinning at the pair. "Do you two need a room or something? Should I leave for a bit?" He's teasing, of course, but he's certainly going to enjoy doing it. That being said, he moves over to the kitchen bowls, whistling a tune.

"Oh, I'm Johnny by the way." he extends a hand for Joseph.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller smirks a bit and says "I think we are good, but I will remember to bring ya some noise canceling headphones next time." He teases a bit and says "Want me to stick this out in the garage for ya hon?"

Mercy Thompson has posed:
Mercy spins on a heel to watch Johnny. "Naah, a garage is a room. Albeit....a room full of tools and things right? C'mon" she says then looks amused. "Okay, see, I'm now concerned, at this rate, I'm the odd one out not whistling here. You got any favored cookies then?" she adds, and deliberately makes a show of pointing out the wrenches. She's sure they both know where the wrenches are, but if she's being teased, she'll give good as she gets. Mercy's good like that. Growing up with werewolves sort of taught her that stuff really. Plus....she's sassy and all that.
Glancing to JM, Mercy shakes her head. "Nah, leave it where it is, the more hands get baking, the better the cookies will be. I assume we're doing cookies unless you'd like to, I dunno, bake a cake or something?" she offers. She's not sure baking a cake is a good idea, but she does smirk. "I mean, cupcakes combine the best of both worlds? You know, when I last went to Montana, I found this place doing cupcakes topped with chocolate coated cookies. I neeed to make those" she opines.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller will take the hand shaking it, giving a firm shake, but not trying to crush the other man's hand "Joe. " He will introduce himself "How long ya known Mercy?" He will ask

Ghost Rider (Blaze) has posed:
Johnny looks at Mercy and grins. "Hey, I always gotta be sure. I don't know when your bringing boyfriends around." Johnny then yawns a bit, moving out of Mercy's way to drink some water. Then to Joseph, who finally shakes his hand. "Nice to meet you, Joe." he almost makes a joke on the name, buth e doesn't. "Long enough, I'd say, to be comfortable sometimes borrowing her couch and her not killing me for it."

He shrugs.

"Few years now? Isn't it almost our anniversay, Mercy?" Of course, not anniversary in a romantic sense, but anniversary of the time since they had first met as individuals.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller nods, a bit to this and says "Cool, she is a good one." He comments and looks at her "I thought you would want the cookies edible." he says but does move to wash his hands to help looking for a spot to help but not be in the way.

Mercy Thompson has posed:
"The anniversary of your first wrench loss?" Mercy retorts with a wicked grin. "Edible differs depending on who you ask" Mercy points out. "I mean, we could make the softest, gooiest cookeis...and people would say they aren't edible. I'd disagree though, and....ya know, hit 'em with a wrench if they kept arguing the point" Mercy sighs looking unimpressed then worried, then shakes her head. "Question is, can we agree on what exactly is edible however?" Mercy asks quietly, almost like she's asking one of life's Big Questions (tm)

Ghost Rider (Blaze) has posed:
"I would know." Johnny retorts to Joseph with an easy smile on his face. "Why do you think I still work with her? and its not because she's pretty or makes damn good cookies....though they are certainly bonuses." He winks at Mercy before he shrugs at her.

"She literally will hit you with a wrench too."

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller smiles and says "I think it might be why she is dating me, I am an easy target for wrenches." He jokes a bit with the other man and to Mercy he says "I have not met many cookies I would not eat."

Mercy Thompson has posed:
Mercy deliberately stays quiet focused on getting the cookie mix just right. She's....doing this by hand. No cheap cheating with cookie mix either. She's making this...by hand and spoon and bowl and....and.....things. "I'll hit you with a wrench if you don't help" Mercy points out. "You're a target for wrenches but if I wanted to kneecap you I wouldn't use my wrenches" Mercy asides to Jo. "Alright, so chocolate chips, vanilla, or....hmm.....dare I say it? Fruit? Fruit cookies? I dunno, I saw it on TV on this healthy eating show" she shrugs. "Personally, I'll throw chocolate in but what do you twpo want?

Ghost Rider (Blaze) has posed:
Johnny smirks at Joe for a minute, before his attention is back on Mercy as he moves to help out. "I probably can't stay much longer. Gotta head out." Patrol. Mercy knew what he meant, most likely. "But, try extra sugar." He teases.

Mercy Thompson has posed:
"Is that so you can sprawl out on my couch again? I swear I need to get a wrench just to hit you with to wake you up if you end up in a sugary coma" Mercy teases, deciding to go with chocolate chips and vanilla. Fruit, though, can stay over there. "Oh what. You're walking out on patrol before, ya know, cookies are done?

Mercy looks to Jo then Jonny again, then back to the mixing bowl. "No, you can't take a handful of cookie dough with you, either" she says, but her tone's light and joking. "It'll make a mess of everything. Plus, you'll be cleaning a lot too" Mercy nods, stirring the cookie mix. It's....coming together slowly.

Overlord has posed:
Joseph Miller smiles and says "I am more a fan of nuts and maybe white choclate than fruit but willing to follow your lead hon.

Mercy Thompson has posed:
Mercy shakes her head with a tsk sound. "WWhite chocolate. Nuts. In a cookie?" she asks with a tilt of her head and a groan. "Okay, you get a mixing bowl and make those if you want. I...will make chocolate chip vanilla cookies" Mercy pouts with a sigh, "Seriously. White chocolate nuts in cookies. That's.....well...ya know....strange" Mercy points out.
