[ maybe she LIKES a dumb nerd with great abs! yes she remembers the feel of his abs under his shirt and she cannot wait to see them for real. nile freeman is ready. ]
ok
cool π
[ and she will in fact be hovering outside her door whenever he arrives, fidgeting idly with her hands, because, well, what else is she supposed to do? she's just wearing some danae jumpsuit pants and a cute low cut shirt she picked up on capitalism planet, one she hurriedly changed into upon returning to her quarters. she thinks it looks ok, and it's not like any of it is going to stay on for very long if she has anything to say about it. ]
She looks β well, since their ... ah, moment on the ferris wheel, Shang-chi hasn't exactly been able to think of much else aside from her, and that, and them, and seeing her again, it's better than any relived memory.
He really has to make a concerted effort to keep his cool when he approaches, lifting a hand to wave and smiling a smile he hopes isn't too obvious for how happy he is to see her. ]
[ oh are they playing it cool?? someone should tell nile, because her face lights up as soon as she sees him. he still looks great, not that she doubted it, but looking at him again is a good reminder. she has no shame in her delight. she asked him here, because she's been thinking a whole lot about him too. ]
[ she lifts her own hand in a little wave to match. ]
Hey. [ yeah, she's going for the hey. ] If I didn't know any better, I might think you teleported over.
Guess the jig is up, huh? [ He definitely looks like he's about to add something further, a joke, maybe, when he switches gears. ] Actually β I was about to make a joke about having teleportation powers, but someone on this ship might really be able to do that, so. No. Scrap that β I just dashed over here like a regular idiot.
[ He laughs, slightly embarrassed, but still buoyed by the brightness of Nile's smile when he meets her eyes.
[ oh this is also such a good reminder of how nerdy and not!smooth he is, but it's earnest enough to be exactly up nile's alley. the grin never really leaves her face even as he babbles. ]
I mean, you could have been hiding teleportation up your sleeve this whole time. But now I know, so you blew it for yourself, and I can just enjoy the fact that you literally ran here to see me.
[ she glances back at it, then reaches out for his hand to tug him in. her excitement is clear in her touch as it is on her face. ] It's a place where I sleep. Feels weird to call it my room.
[ it's more like barracks, which she supposes she's used to, but it leaves very little room for personalization, or maybe she's just used to the minimum of that anyway. ]
