A matress and movie night
"... and a big thank you to today's sponsor Megastör, you can get 10% off your mattress order with the code LACERATION…"
Nyssa mouthed along the words with the podcast mindlessly as she sharpened her favorite sword. She put the sharpened weapon down as she thought to herself: "Should I purchase a mattress? It may have long term benefits on my spine…" she trailed off. She picked up her laptop and started looking up different mattresses and researching health benefits. Next thing she knew she was at Megastör checkout page, having purchased a medium-soft king bed mattress. She briefly thought about Ava as she put the discount code in, happy that she saved a little bit of money. She paid for her order and closed her laptop. She laid back, Ava was still on her mind and so was Sara, she wondered what the two were up to.
She got up, stretched and went over to her kitchen to make herself some tea. She kept thinking about the two women, she really wanted to meet Ava. After sitting back down on the couch with her tea she picked up her phone and did something she has never done before, she unpromptedly texted Sara.
Hello Sara, how are you doing? I have been wondering if you would like to "hang out" if you're not too busy.
Best regards,
Nyssa
She calmly waited for a reply with the cup of tea warming her hands.
Did you just sign off a text with "best regards" ?? 😂😂😂
that's hilarious😂
...I mean the team is having a movie night so do you wanna join us? I can pick you up now if you want 😉
Sara replied quite quickly which Nyssa appreciated because she didn't have to overthink anything. She wasn't sure if this was a good way to meet the woman whose podcast she's been obsessing over for the past few weeks but ultimately she decided to agree. Only a few minutes later Sara showed up walking through a portal, grinning at her. Nyssa collected herself, got up, smiled and walked through the portal with her beloved.
The legends were all gathered in front of a big tv, the beginning of "Chicago 2002" playing on the screen. Sara sat down on the couch leaving a space for Nyssa right between herself and Ava. Nyssa introduced herself to the tall blonde, they exchanged smiles and turned their attention to Catherine Zeta-Jones singing "All that jazz" which all three women very much enjoyed.
During "Cell block tango" Sara sneaked her hand on Nyssa's thigh and as soon as the first chorus happened Sara started singing along quietly at first. But when Nyssa joined the "he had it coming" they started fully singing along. The rest of the legends including Ava grinned at their antics. It was quite interesting seeing the two ex-assassins singing about murdering men.
During the movie everyone has shifted positions, Nate and Nora have both leaned their heads on Ray, Nora was so exhausted that she even fell asleep. Behrad who was sitting on the floor had his back against Nate's legs, Charlie was sitting next to him with a sleepy Zari in their lap and Mick was asleep on the sofa. Sara has managed to move between the taller women and she ended up with her head in Ava's lap and her legs in Nyssa's. For some reason it felt just right for Nyssa and Ava to start holding hands sometime during "Roxie" which they realized they were doing during the "Razzle dazzle" but neither of them pulled away.
"Is that Lucy Liu?!" Charlie exclaimed, "I didn't know she was in this...," they added, Zari turned her head to look at them and smirked. "What?" they asked. "Nothing, you're cute," she replied and turned back to the screen nestling even more comfortably in their lap.
When the movie ended everyone went to their respective rooms (Zari and Charlie left together of course) so that only Ava, Nyssa and Sara remained....
