constellation sensation
He was not passionate about people, not passionate about his job or his place; but he was passionate about something that he viewed as ethereal, magical even, and it was a raw, unbridled passion that spilled out, because he didn't know how to control it entirely.
"I can still see them," said Chance, grinning down at her, and he was still breathless at wonder at the sky above him, channeling that energy into something he found pleasing. The arm around Claude's shoulder shifted, his hand curling around the back of her neck as his other lifted, grasped her side and tugged her tightly against him. His mouth found hers, already insistent and slightly greedy, fingers tangling in her hair as he angled her head up to meet his own.
He pulled away after a minute, but didn't quite let go, still starry eyed at where they were and what he could see in the sky, and both hands held her waist now, keeping her pressed to him as Chance lifted his gaze upwards, staring rapturously.
"It's ******** gorgeous out here, I wish it was like this everywhere."

Claude only smirked, and then took that bite of fish. Delicious. When Chance was done, she pulled her plate back towards her, but stayed leaning forward, resting an arm on the table as she twirled more spaghetti onto her fork.
"Amen." She replied. "It makes going off island that much sweeter though."

A soft amused sound was heard from Claude at that little revelation of his. What made him upset though, hm? It now tied in with being unpleasant though, so maybe he wouldn't answer anything pertaining to it outright.
"Do you find effort unpleasant?"
She was having fun just asking questions from what he said.

"Thanks." She replied simply, and reached up to tilt the hat this way and that, and would continue to do so for a while. Feeling incredibly content, the feeling multiplied with the realization that with this done, they could do anything in St. Maarten now. Free as birds for the rest of the day.

She stepped up to the counter after him, making a quick transaction with her one item. Claude placed her wallet and sketchbook into her small bag, noting it definitely had some weight to it since this morning. She slung it over her shoulder, and moved to leave the art supply store.
"C'est magnifique." Claude relied.

constellation sensationThere was still something stunning about this passion he had for stars. She found she had underestimated it to a degree. She hadn't seen how deep it went until now, and she could feel his passion for it in his actions. She leaned into the tug and pressed against him, her hands coming up to circle behind his neck as she laced her fingers together. She melded into the insistent press of his mouth against hers readily, and then he pulled away to look up, she kept her eyes on him once again. Still something stunning. Claude didn't mind stayed pressed against him, and just kept her hands interlocked behind his neck. "You'll just have to capitalize on your vacation time every month." She murmured.

"True," said Chance, pointing his fork lazily towards her. "Very true. I suppose there's something to be said about that whole idea of not appreciating something as much when you have it all the time, or whatever sentimental s**t those Hallmark cards used to make."
He cut off a bite of his fish and chewed it thoughtfully.
"I do think that we could do without the MREs, though."

He hemmed and hawed for a moment.
"Not really, I don't think," Chance said, making a little face. "Effort is just that - effort."
His shoulders rose and fell in a half sort of shrug. "I suppose it's because I never really saw the point in putting too much effort into being upset, so that more just annoys me."

"Do you speak any other languages?" Chance asked as they left, and he paused in the doorway of the shop to look around, his eyes traveling from shop to shop to see if there was anything interesting in any of them. "I think it'd be nice to be able to speak something other than English sometimes."
He turned to look at her, sliding his sunglasses back down over his eyes.
"I always did find German a fun sounding language."

He could have chosen to express himself through words, rather than actions; but since he had the opportunity to do the latter, Chance had already decided that there was no shame in taking advantage of that fact. And besides, he had asked before he'd done anything, and she'd met his enthusiasm with eagerness of her own, so there was nothing wrong with any of it.
One of Chance's hands idly tugged on her waist, their hips pressed together, though his attention was still skyward as he pressed an absent kiss to her temple. He seemed unable to keep still, his current state of mind somewhat messy.
"I wish we got more than just a day," Chance said breathlessly, swaying a little as a gentle breeze flitted through the air. "Not that I don't want to be at Deus, but I could look at this forever, I never get ******** sick of it, I swear. I heard when you get promoted, you get more vacation time, so I just need to work on getting promoted."

"Did you know," said Chance, waving his golf club around, probably more haphazardly than was actually safe. "That putt putt golf is considered, like, a staple part of all childhoods?"

Claude solemnly nodded her head in agreement as she quietly ate her lunch.
"Also in agreement to that." She murmured, twirling another forkful of spaghetti. "Before we leave today...we should stop and get some food to go." Save it for later. Even if it wasn't hot, it'd be a nice little treat until it ran out.

How Chance roped her into this was something else. She warily eyed his club as he waved it, inching away from him. Her own club was currently propped against her shoulder, and she despised it with a passion. These kinds of clubs weren't kind to tall people, and after a few holes that whole bending over s**t was killer.
"I guess I didn't have a childhood." She uttered, still watching his club, and then gestured to the ball on the ground. "You have to hit that, you know." Just to be a smart a**.

She nodded a bit, and the next question seemed obvious, but she'd ask. It was just rolling with it, and with limitless questions until the end of the day, it meant she could probe every inch. "Is being annoyed the same as being unpleasant for you?"

"Pirate." That was a joke though...kind of sort of. She stepped out of the shop, pausing as he stopped to look around. "If you want to learn another language, do it." Claude said simply. "What's stopping you?" The answer was nothing, she felt.
