*he smiles* I've been busy. I need to finish some galleys and send them back to the editor, but ... my mind's been on other things...
*he leans in and kisses her*

*Luke swaggers into the library, looking unusually comfortable in his jeans and shirt.....* Oh, but I want to walk on the water with you... *He's whistling the guitar solo.*
*He walks in mid-whistle, just in time to see Maggie and Bard lock lips.*
*His whistle goes from high pitched all the way down the scale.*

*Maggie stands up on her tiptoes to return Bard's kiss, her eyes sliding shut*
*But they snap open again at Luke's whistle, and she pulls back, immediately bright red* Oh, heavens . . . *she clears her throat awkwardly, managing a self-conscious smile in greeting* Ehm . . good day te ye, Luke.

*Bard hears Luke's whistle and sighs inwardly as Maggie pulls away*
Hello, Luke.

*Luke can't help himself. Cooes softly* Bow-chicka-bow-wow... *smiles full fledged at the both of them, apologetically* I'm sorry, I won't bother you guys. *It's due to his good mood really - and a piece of consideration. How would he have felt if someone c**k-blocked him last night?*
*He starts to turn around, and then regards them once more.* You know... the library's a great atmosphere and all - cozy quiet --- but there's these really nice guest rooms down that'away.
Try 'em. *Luke takes another swig of beer.* Aaaaah. I highly recommend it.

*The noise Luke makes only puzzles Maggie, but at his suggestion of the guest rooms, her entire face burns bright red. She opens her mouth to say something, but can't form a response, and closes it again, thoroughly embarrassed*

*Bard flushes, looking more than a little annoyed* We know where the guest rooms are, thanks Luke. *he mutters* I'm surprised you even know what a library looks like....

*Holding his beer bottle, Luke lifts his hands in surrender. On any other day, he might have had a smart comeback.... But not today. He turns back around, deciding to let the couple have their fun...*
*Echoing down the hall, humming some random rock song....*
*As he's making his way down the hall, he inexplicably fades out, back to his own time.*

*Bard sighs* That kid... *he shakes his head and laughs*
I guess I know what it's like to be his age.

*Maggie watches Luke leave, trying to will the blush away from her face. She tilts her face up towards Bard as he laughs, then back down the hallway. Luke can't be all that far in age from her . . . but then, there is that four-hundred year gap to account for*
*She lets out a noise somewhere between a laugh and a sigh* Well, 'tis good te see him in good spirits again, at least.

Seems that way.
*he turns toward Maggie putting his arms around her again* Now, were you up to something important? Or shall I interrupt you again?

*Maggies face turns a little pink again, but she smiles, explaining* I was only looking for a book that might help me te practice the power that Tavin taught me . . . *she doesn't say it outright, but he's clearly not an unwelcome distraction*

*She glances over to the bookshelves* Oh, any sort that might have a clear picture of things from other times than my own. *she explains* That way I'm able te practice bringing them inte the Brink. *she laughs a little, admitting* Although, half the time, I've no idea what I've brought in.
