She hadn't felt this way in years. Decades or a century, if it came down to it. There was something about Joshua, something about the way he listened, the way he interacted with her, that awakened something in her that she thought had died even before Christina was born.

Once they got back to the B&B and up to her room, everything seemed to blur. She barely got to the bed before she was on top of him, snogging, tearing off clothes (in retrospect, she should have made sure he had other clothes first) and losing herself in feelings, in passions that she hadn't truly felt in quite a while.

After the first, there was a second, and a third, and finally, she lay back in her bed, Joshua curled up beside her and just let out a deep sigh.

"I'm not certain. Something about him stealing a Tesla and her just being... herself." Joshua shrugs. "I... don't exactly know what happened." He pauses and smirks. "Yeah, you should meet him."

[timelessinventor]

"Well, there's his problem. He oughtn't have stolen her Tesla." Helena grins. "I look forward to it."

[damncompass]

"Yeah. Stealing Claud's Tesla leads to bad things." Or something like that. Joshua just decides to lean over and kiss his Helena again.

Speak of the devil, there's a knock at the door.
"Dinner's in half an hour I'm not coming in or hanging around."
Really, Claudia's just glad it doesn't sound like she caught them in the act.

[damncompass]

... Cockblocked by his sister. It was inevitable.

"'k. Thanks, Claud." If Joshua's a bit breathless, well. It happens.

"Well. I suppose we'd best get dressed." They can always resume the Artifact research after dinner, if they're so inclined.

[damncompass]

"Yeah... if I can find where my pants went to..."

After some moments of finding clothes (How did Helena's bra end up all the way over there?) Joshua finally straightens his shirt. "Well, I'm not finding my tie, but I don't think anyone's going to care."

[timelessinventor]

"Likely not. We can always find it later." Helena finishes buttoning her blouse. "Shall we, then?"

[damncompass]

"I think we shall." Joshua grins, and they both go down to dinner, looking rather like, well, they just had a good time. Oops.
