Remieverse. The Red Rose Cafe and environs. Another hop back into time.

[random_xtras]

Joy stretched luxuriously, then adjusted her pale grey shorts, smoothing the front panel that made them look like a mini skirt.

"Are ye comin', me love?" she called, stepping through the bedroom door. Then she froze as she wound up on the night-time street of a human city instead of in the hallway of the castle on the way to breakfast. "Aii! Kurti?"

"Here, mien liebe," he said, following dazily and then almost bumping into her before he started.

"Ach!" he looked around, then groaned. "What now?"

[random_xtras]

She shivered slightly as a passer bye glanced at her, then blinked and looked up at her husband as the man only nodded courteously. "Ve should see tae findin' oot vhere ve are."

Soft music came from the nearby cafe, and she could hear a deep voice humming along contentedly over the drone of conversation.

[bloody-wagner.livejournal.com]

"Ja," he said, taking her hand. "Let's see vat ze cafe is."

As they entered the foyer of the cafe a bright, cheerful voice called out to them.

"G'night, hommes. Care t' take a rest from de bar 'oppin' n' have somethin' t' eat?" a tall woman with red on black eyes grinned at them. Kurt stared in utter shock, met with much the same look from the woman, only directd towards Joy.

"Amour, dat someone a' yoh fam'ly?" she said softly, going to her husband.

[random_xtras]

"Vhat she said." Schalk waggled his eyebrows merrily. "Anything you'd like."

Joy's own brows shot up at his gesture, her surprise leaving her speechless for a moment. -Cheeky begger....-

Kurt blushed, but on her way back two beers slid from Remie's hands over to the two.

"You are our friends, dis our bar, we treat who we wanna," Remie said.

"What about treatin' me, sweet cheeks?" a less-than-sober man grinned. Remie arched an eyebrow and looked at Schalk.

"Gutter delivery," she said calmly, walking over to them.

[random_xtras]

"Ja." He vanished into the shadows, then rose up behind the drunk and calmly and gently hauled him out of the building, ignoring his protests and attempts to fight him off. "Ve don't serve people who start somevhere else, my friend."

"Vhat in the .... did he jes' do?" demanded Joy, her jaw dropped.

[random_xtras]

"So how long hae ye been t'gether?" she asked, absently turning her cheek more fully toward Kurt and then gave him a soft look.

Schalk just cuddled and let Remie do the talking.

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

"A while now. Not too long, we got married pretty quick," she said, stroking his hair.

"How soon?" he blinked.

"He asked me de second time we saw eachother," she said fondly, earning a shocked look. "N' I accepted. Den we fall in love, n' now we expectin' our firs' soon."

"You decided to marry before you vhere in love?" Kurt gaped slightly. Remie chuckled.

"He saved me," she said softly. "N' I knew he was a good man, n' I was beginin' t' feel for him. After we get t'gether it was obvious it was as it meant t' be."

[random_xtras]

"I loved you," rumbled Schalk softly, earning an ear perk from Joy.

Then the bay brown woman turned to her husband. "Not like us, eh?"

[random_xtras]

"About a month und a half." He looked around for more customers in need of assistance, then leaned on the counter with his elbows to watch as the tall woman with the white streak in her auburn hair joked with his wife.

Joy watched too, her ears twitching in a smile as she leaned back against her husband.

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

"Rogue," Kurt's eyes got big.

[random_xtras]

"Greedy," he murmured with a chuckle.

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

"Can't help it," she smirked, a hand brushing his neck.

Kurt loked at Joy, and coulnd't help feeling exatly the same way.

[random_xtras]

"Ye maun eat," insisted Joy as Schalk gently let go of Remie after a last snuzzle.

"She'll like the same things that I do," he murmured, watching the other couple with an ear twitch.

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

"Sounds good," she said, kissing his cheek. "I'll leave you to it, den."

Moving off she started collectings the bills as she went, bidding the cook goodnight with a kiss on the cheek and a thanks, then she dissappeared into the kitchen.

Kurt blinked, then looked at Schalk.

"Vat time is it?" he said, worried about keeping the pregnant woman and husband up after being up all day.

[random_xtras]

"Ik hou fan dei!" he said with delight, his wing slipping around her shoulders just as quickly and quietly as Kurt's tail tended to go around Joy's waist.

Joy, meanwhile, smiled and said, "Ach, thank ye, this looks delicious."

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

"No problem. De main course cookin' for a little while, so don' eat too fazt," she shot her husband a playful look.

[random_xtras]

"But is it really timeless?" His ears perked.

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

Kurt shrugged and looked at Joy.

"I do not know."

[random_xtras]

"Ach." Joy blinked. "Ve've not spoken 'o it."

She was surprised by that realization.

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

Remie laughed.

"If he get all dopey jus' kiss him, n' you'll know by de reaction what he wan'," she said.

[random_xtras]

-Strong und deep und true....- Her eyes sought Kurt's as she resumed her stool next to him.

Schalk twitched his ears and took the plates, then set them down and opened his wings, more interested in wife than in food.

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

Remie set up the food, then went to him, smiling as she snuggled against him.

"Try dis," she said, offering the new combo of spices on a biece of steamed tuna.

[random_xtras]

"I'm thinkin' tis time tae go," she said. "I kin hear home."

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

Kurt smiled.

"Ah," he said, taking her hand.

"You sure? You welcome t' stay here," Remie smiled.
