Franz was a witness of something he couldn't quite wrap his mind around right now. Either he was really being clueless, or just there was just some sexual tension occurring between Crystal and Lily, although he could tell that it seemed like a recurrent joke, but really right now he was speechless, he did not know how to think or how to act, which was why he was just staring blankly at the three women right now. Obviously there was something going on right there, but what? No clue at all, Franz didn't even want to start assuming whatever because he would probably be very off mark with each of his thoughts. Cutting his train of thoughts short, he just ended up sipping his wine while clearly there was that ongoing joke there...
"Aww maaaaaaan!" Franz playfully whined when everyone got it, although he looked at Elika when she corrected him, and for that, just for that he pointed at her facial expression and put a thumb up. "You clearly have Model Face impersonation right!" He said with a laugh before shaking his head, how could he indeed forget about the smolder, and the rubbing of the root of his nose. Although come to think of it, even Andros did that. But ah well, didn't matter, Elika won obviously.
Franz was midsip when Crystal said something, he looked at her dubiously and shook his head, no way, he couldn't be all suave like the Atlantis kind. "Uh no, your Model Face, is definitely the Model Face. I could never do the things he does." Franz said while shaking his head. Since Elika got it right, got the Atlantis impersonation right, Franz could never even do that less he wanted to look like a fool.
He did not linger on that matter considering that Elika was about to play, and he kept himself silent as he watched her first, from time to time he looked away because he knew that she didn't like the attention. But the more she continued to play, the more he could see her freeing herself from some figurative shackles and just be lost into the music she was playing. Franz smiled warmly because it was the first time he had ever seen her that way. So passionate, so free and not only that, but he loved the music that she was playing and it felt that it lasted only a short amount of time, which was a bummer for him...
Franz put his glass down and started clapping profusely as he stood up before placing his index and thumb fingers of his right hand to his mouth to whistle happily. "Woooooow! That was awesome!" He said sincerely before he smiled warmly and looked at her happily. "Thank you for the share, and I cannot believe that I have only heard you play now after knowing you for a while now." Finally he sat down and chuckle as he pretended to be holding a notebook in his left hand and a pen on his right. "Now I can remove that from my bucket list." He smirked before lowering his arms and just cleared his throat "I'll eat in a moment, I just need to process the fact that you did a better Atlantis impersonation than me." Franz said jokingly but it was also a way maybe to divert the matter for now that she had just played and he could feel her anxious, so instead of continuing to toss in flowers in her direction, so to speak, about her playing a moment ago, he completely said something else...

Really looking at Crystal and Elika with disappointment because I will never know, that causes me to pout, only for jokes of course, and I even start sniffling at the realization of never finding out. "Now how am I supposed to know!" I say in a frustrated tone before pouting again, still I cannot help but to look at Franz dubiously before asking. "I don't suppose you know by any chance how it feels like to make out with someone who has a tongue ring, right?" Flailing my arms above my head, I stop and then lower my arms again to look at Crystal very seriously ... "Idea. You could have your tongue pierced again, and you tell your Lover Boy I am going to make out with you, so that I know how that feels like." Despite my serious tone right now, I am still joking because I actually have no intentions to make out with baby girl because hello! Friendship rules and she is like a sister to me, duh!
Dropping that subject here and now because I just know that I have to live with the fact that I will never know how that feels like, or it'll never be described to me, I end up looking in gorgeous' direction when she imitates perfectly lover boy. That is definitely more like him. Definitely. "Oooo la la, gorgeous, watch out or I may fall in love with you with those moves." I tell her playfully with a wink before taking another sip of my wine ...
Now it's time for silence, so I put my index finger to my lips to ask for silence even though I am the one making a ruckus right now, that much I know. So maybe I am just doing that for myself to say from here on, I am going to be silent and just let gorgeous concentrate with her vioflute. When she starts playing though, I cannot help but to look at her for the longest time, even a smile creeps onto my lips when I see her just losing herself to that piece she wrote a while ago ... Wow ... That thought of mine intensifies when Elika surrenders herself entirely to the music, to playing that piece perfectly. I cannot help but to stare at her in awe and that awe remains throughout her entire playing at least until she is done and I find myself clapping and smiling at what she has just shared with us.
"Gorgeous ..." I start to say, but clearly nothing comes out right now, so I close my mouth again and take a deep breath hoping to find the right words but nothing comes up but just a soft, "Wow." Although that wow to me is ridiculous and the fact that I am usually more articulate than that really leaves me dumbfounded right now. "That was beautiful." I finally tell her sincerely with a warm smile because it in fact was, and she really can play. "You should play more often and grace us with some of your pieces whenever the mood strikes?" It's just a suggestion, although I am not against to hearing some more because that was just magnificent and I cannot even come to terms on why Elika doesn't do that for larger crowds since she is clearly that good. But considering what I know about her, I do not even think about asking her that, so I just take a sip of my wine again and look at the dessert for a moment thinking that yes, I should probably eat some too, which is what I am doing right about now when Elika hands that to me.
"Thanks gorgeous." I tell her sincerely and it's not just a thanks for the dessert, it is also a thanks for sharing something right there with me, with all of us ...

Crystal had that amused look on her features when Lily suggested that she got her tongue pierced again, rolling her eyes playfully, Crystal was currently at a loss for words, she had no idea how to reply, or even what to say because she knew that no matter what she would end up saying, it might automatically turn into a sexual innuendo with Lily's mind always being in the gutter. "Uh huh... Sure, whatever you say baby girl." Crystal said as she looked upwards teasingly although she could not help but to ask. "I don't think that my boyfriend is the sharing type and I do not think yours is either." Winking at her childhood friend before patting her shoulder in consolation, Crystal sighed a defeated sigh and shook her head. "I guess that is a frustration you will have to live with."
Laughing when Elika got it right, and was definitely closer to the Atlantis' impersonation, Crystal nodded knowingly before shaking her head. SHe just couldn't believe that out of the people they knew, they had to mimic the identical twins, then again, who else it might have been? Therefore yes, it was very easy to figure out who was being imitated considering that Atlantis and Andros were really different in their mannerisms. "Sweetie, you clearly win the impersonation contest." Crystal said as she lifted her toast, thankfully though she had no taken a sip of her wine just yet because Lily was at it again.
"Really impossible." She stated again, for the umpteenth time in a single day, she guessed but now it was time for Elika to shine, after Crystal was given the assurances that Elika was indeed going to perform. Crystal waited patiently and peacefully until Elika started to play the first notes. Lifting her glass towards her lips to take a sip of her wine, she stopped right then and there when she started to see Elika just being in trance and lost into that passion of hers. She smiled a wide smile because not only was the melody soothing but it also emphasized different set of emotions...
Crystal put her glass down on the table and tilted her head slightly on the side when she watched Elika get out of the recessed area to just give herself into the music. Crystal clearly saw Elika just be free, and not caged in. Her friend had so much to give and Crystal understood only a fraction of why Elika was usually so shut off, or aloof but right that instant, she was just so free and Crystal loved seeing her that way. When her friend finished playing, Crystal clapped her hands before placing them in front of her lips, just touched at what Elika had just shared with them. "You should play more often, sweetie..." Crystal finally said with a warm smile, and sure a few time she had heard Elika playing but never this way... Gesturing to Lily when she says thanks, Crystal took the dessert when Elika offered some and glanced at Lily knowing she could maybe make what she had in mind happen.
"You need to work on the twins to get them to play their favorite instruments."

Even though her smile indicates that she is glad that her friends enjoyed her playing, Elikapeka waves their compliments aside, not out of false modesty or in protest meant to invite additional comments, but because she is, naturally for her, not at all comfortable being the center of attention and is sincerely trying to move on to another subject when she says, "Thank you. You're all probably a little biased, but thank you anyway. Shrugging when Lily suggests that she play more often, Elika says, We'll see beautiful, and then laughs and gives him a grateful smile when Franz changes the subject by mentioning her impersonation of Atlantis, joking with him, You better process fast then, the air cake may not last much longer."
The back and forth between Crystal and Lucy makes eating the cake without either aspirating it or spraying crumbs everywhere in laughter difficult, and Elika sets her plate down to prevent one or the other from happening and playfully tells Crystal, "I think we better cancel that bet and let her comm hon', looking from Crystal to Lily as she teases, If we don't, I get the feeling we're going to be hearing her whine all night, then tells Lily, Go on and comm him already beautiful, you know you want to," and tosses Lily her own comlink to make it easier for her friend to do so.
Finishing her aircake and sipping her wine to wash it down, Elika collects her plate as well as those of any others that have finished along with the other detritus from the meal that can be thrown away, and says, "Be right back, telling Crystal jokingly, For the love of Shiraya hon', make her comm, please, before walking inside to toss what can be tossed.
Reaching up to take her hair out of the bun she had put it into to play the vioflute, Elika drops back into her seat, shakes her head to loosen her hair and then picks up her wine glass and playfully asks, "Someone please tell me that beautiful has commed?"

Franz chuckled and looked at Elika before shaking his head slowly. "I am, how should I this..." He started to say before chuckling and glancing at the duo there that were making him laugh although he was still at a loss for words because whatever had occurred there, he didn't want to know but it did not mean that they weren't making him laugh. "Right, I am processing a long time because, I may end up choking between of them."
Franz nodded to concur with Elika's words right now and he lifted his right hand as if he was going to be honest and going to say the truth and only the truth... Or something like that, did that even work here? He did not know but he guessed that Lily would understand. "I hereby lift the bet, therefore it will allow you to call Ryan without any repercussions or fear of loss." Franz made a face, it felt like he did not make any sense there but uh, yeah that was good enough right? He hoped.
Although to answer Lily's previous question, Franz only shook his head because he actually never had that, not from what he could remember anyways. "Sorry Lily, but nope, not a reference when it comes to kissing someone with a tongue ring." Franz couldn't believe that he had just said that, by the Force, did he actually just say that. He facepalmed and closed his eyes before taking a deep breath, obviously there was no way that he could still eat that dessert because he was going to choke on it, he just knew it.
"But what Elika said, I mean seriously, she invoked her goddess then and there." Franz said with a chuckle looking at Lily with a wide grin. "That is saying something and therefore you should call the doctor, otherwise this may turn out into something more catastrophic." Franz didn't know how exactly but he was still trying to make up for a reason to convince Lily to do the calling, right?
That should be good enough, besides he voided his own bet, and with all the innuendos that had been going on... Wait was that even a good idea to tell her to call Ryan? Uh oh... Franz shuddered and sunk deeper onto his seat just busying himself with his glass of wine... "Are you sure that she should be calling him?" Franz said quietly in Elika's direction completed with wide worried eyes.

Placing my hand over my chest and looking at gorgeous with a shock expression, I scoff playfully and roll my eyes before telling me. "Me, biased? Please, far from it." I wave my hand dismissively before winking at her to tell her that I am just pulling her leg so to speak but I am definitely hoping that she will play more, although I do not push her on that even if I end up pouting with my lower lip sticking out.
Wine, blaming the wi- ... Ooo more wine! I cut my thoughts short and just pick up my glass after noticing that my glass is dangerously empty and so are the others, so without even asking who else wants some, I refill their glass, just because. If they don't like it, they can sue me ... Just when I am about to sip my drink after I clearly no longer want to finish my dessert, I look at Crystal very grudgingly when clearly she is stating the obvious right now. "I blame you, Kayne, really I do blame you for my frustrated state currently."
Giggling at the thought before finally sipping my drink and enjoying the wine coursing through my system, I look at Elika with pursed lips because I really do not want to fall into that trap of calling Ryan. "No ..." I tell her with a huff and just sink further into my seat until I hear Franz saying that he is completely withdrawing his bet and I groan because I am clearly torn between comming or not comming Ryan right now, that is the question.
Even when Elika is ushering baby girl to convince me to comm Ryan, I still do not do it and just stay put, sipping my wine because I am perfectly fine right now and I still can hold that off ... Oh gosh ... Just when I am about to grab my comm from my pocket, I notice that Elika is coming back and she just has to ask that question. I poke my tongue out at her and finally put my glass down onto the table.
"I am not that desperate, yet." Giggling before shaking my head and picking up Crystal's lit up cigarette, I take a drag from it inhaling soothingly, or at least I think that it's soothing before blowing the excess of smoke. "You do know that saying, right gorgeous? The one that goes, chicks before ..." I even end up air quoting that saying before glancing at Elika with an amused expression. "So it may not be an all girls thing currently, but we are still in majority so, no, no comming."

Despite the fact that Crystal had been trying to shove Elika's comlink in Lily's direction, it looked like her childhood friend wasn't really going to give in. Crystal looked at Elika as if saying I'll try... but really no one should be holding their breaths right now.
Putting the comlink down onto the table because really right now, Crystal was giving up for now, maybe she should get Lily to drink more. Maybe and then call Ryan herself. That was a plan, at least she hoped that was going to work. "Baby girl, my dear dear and sweet baby girl." Crystal said as she placed her hands onto Lily's cheek. "I am sorry okay and if one day, just that one day, I have a tongue ring again, I promise to make out with you." Crystal said playfully before kissing her childhood friend's forehead before pulling back.
And now Lily looked like she was going to pass her nerves on that cigarette, when Elika came back and asked if any one of them convinced Lily to make the call, Crystal made a face and shook her head to tell her that it did not work at all. "But we are not an al-..." Crystal started to say until Lily amended her statement and just said another BS or something like that, but at this point Crystal was too amused to really follow the conversation because she knew that she had not pulled away from her urge to laugh.
"Baby girl, think about it this way." Crystal began to say before lifting her finger up to prevent Lily from contradicting her right this instant. "Tonight you are going to be headed to bed, no Ryan. Tomorrow, we will be at the spa and again no Ryan, the next day, here at home by the pool for your bikini fantasy, again no Ryan." Crystal said thoughtfully before making a face.
"I have already admitted during the day that I did not just want to punch Atlantis, if and when I see him, but will you be able to last without Ryan for three full days?" Crystal asked teasingly and playfully and she couldn't believe that she was about to say this, Ryan was still her brother, but more or less she kind of got over that fact when she and Lily had been talking about their men. Which was why, she regarded Ryan as just a guy in these cases. "Not being able to gaze into his eyes, or just touch his abs, just his muscular body, oh and his tattoo." Crystal pursed her lips because she really wanted to laugh right then and there until she managed to control herself so that she could add on.
"The academy there might be cold to him, since he got used to always be with you at night, not to mention that he moved all the way here from Honoghr just to be with you. So," Crystal leaned over to pick up Elika's comm on the table and retrieved her cigarette from Lily's hand and just handed her the comlink. "Call him, and just vent off your frustration on him?" She suggested teasingly before winking at both Elika and Franz.

Nodding her head vigorously when Franz asks if she is sure that having Lily comm is a good idea, Elikapeka whispers back in a theatrically scared voice, "You haven't seen her when she's . . . frustrated yet, so just trust me," and then nods again, keeping the frightened look on her face for as long as she can before Crystal's attempts to sway Lily become too hilarious to prevent her laughter any longer.
Thankful that she had not been drinking her wine when Lily had informed of the relative importance that needs to be assigned to chicks and a certain part of the male anatomy, Elika, through her laughter, manages to nod and, when she finds her voice again, says, "You're absolutely right beautiful, how could I possibly have forgetten, and then lifts her hands as though surrendering and vows, No more arguments from me or attempts to persuade you either, promise." Smiling to thank Lily for refilling her glass, Elika arranges herself more comfortably in her seat, stretching her legs out and then recurling them beneath her with a contented sigh.
"So, Elika asks after sipping her wine, who has an idea of what we can do to get beautiful's mind off of potentially frustrating matters? Lips pursed in thought, Elika admits, I'm drawing a blank so, she grins and waves her hand between Crystal and Franz, it's up to one of you two to save the evening."

Franz was looking at Elika with that genuine worried expression before he took a deep breath to quickly look over at Lily and Crystal, but as it went, he couldn't keep that worried expression on his features and he started laughing all over again. "Resolve is probably strong in that one..." Franz said playfully before rolling his eyes as he just leaned back against his seat and he had indeed promised that he was lifting his bet, but it did not mean that he would stop trying in convincing Lily to call Ryan...
Hopefully though Crystal's words right now were going to push Lily to make that comm but again, Lily was countering that matter in her way. Franz knew that expression more or less and he pushed his lips to stop himself from laughing or just point out the obvious that currently there was still a guy present right now, namely him, but yeah, the women were indeed in majority...
Franz still wondered though how he was managing to survive right now in their company because so far, they weren't really teasing him that much and he was thankful for that more or less, even if there were some subjects he knew he wasn't inclined to speak about right now but just being with them, that was great of an evening for him so far.
Now came that moment where they had to find an activity to keep Lily entertained, but Franz was currently drawing a blank so he looked at Crystal with wide eyes to usher her to find something because right now. "I have no idea, and I am sure that Crystal will have more ideas to entertain Lily." Franz said as he briefly glanced at Elika with wide eyes.
Crystal knew Lily better than him anyways, and he clearly was still discovering how the three of them worked together or just interacted with one another but so far, he could see that Lily always made up all the fun, and he was glad for that, one of the ways for him to see Elika and Crystal happy too. So it was nice that they had their own balance too. He loved that and it showed with his smile right now.

My expression lights up when Crystal promises if she ever has a tongue piercing, she'll make out with me. I am probably smiling like an idiot, like I am unwrapping a Christmas gift but I know for a fact that Crystal always holds her promises although really, it's not a promise that I will hang over her head because again, I was just joking and I still consider her like a sister. I'll probably end up asking lover boy ... yep.
Finally I rejoice when Elika gets my point and vows to not push me any longer to comm Ryan, so I smile at her and blow her a kiss before winking at her. But ... It looks like Crystal is charging again and I look at her with that jaded expression and I am about to say something but I see her finger being lifted, and as baby girl lists what I believe is the obvious for this evening, for tomorrow and even the day after tomorrow, my expression starts to turn into a frown and my resolve starts weakening.
And all of a sudden Crystal takes the cigarette I am holding and hands me the comm in return. I groan because obviously Crystal does have a point and I am starting to really want to comm Ryan but instead of inputing his frequency, I end up slapping gently Crystal and look at her with a glare. "Wait, wait, wait ..." I say while gesturing with the comm in my hand before looking at her still with a jaded expression. "Why does it have to be me, to call my man? When," I pick up the cigarette again from her finger and hand her the comm again in return. "Obviously you have admitted that you did not just want to punch lover boy?"
Taking a drag of the cigarette and ashing it into the ashtray before letting it sit there. I blow the excess of smoke in a fit of giggles for some unfathomable reasons, maybe because I am amused at this turn of event and that it looks like Kayne and I are handling the comlink as if it's a time bomb. "So why do I have to call my man, when your own man is going to be facing the same thing as Ryan, and need I remind you that usually Atlantis is also here most evenings?" I ask her rhetorically with a winning smile and therefore to me it clearly looks like we are in the same position.
"So we leave our men in the cold and they'll keep one another company, and they can be jealous of Franz, that is a promising perspective to me." Even though I do sound convincing, I am not that convinced about that statement of mine because I, in fact, do miss that overly tattooed doctor ... But out of the question, girls' night ... with a guy and that is perfect enough for me and besides, it would be a little awkward too considering that Elika doesn't know Ryan that much. I also clearly remember that she prefers a smaller committee. So case closed in my mind. I hope ...
"Gorgeous, I have a question for you." I tell her out of the blue, and I do not even know why that comes into mind right now. "What are five things that make you go weak in your knees?" At least I will know more or less, and it's general, at least I do not think that it's too personal, right? And besides ... "Oh don't worry, I am going to ask that same question to Franz too and Crystal."

Crystal had that feeling that it was just going to blow back at her face. She closed her eyes but peeked with one eye and made a face at Lily's statements. Crystal definitely and completely gave up at that. "Okay, okay..." Crystal said very reluctantly as she was now holding Elika's comm since her cigarette had been taken again. "I give up, I am not going to debate with you further this evening." Crystal shook her head and rolled her eyes playfully before finally handing Elika her comlink back. "Sorry sweetie, I have tried but obviously the lawyer here always makes a point to win her cases."
Crystal, plenty of times, told herself over and over again that she was never going to debate with Lily again because she would end up losing one way or another. It was always about random things and Lily always won, that was preposterous really. Picking up her glass of wine that had been refilled, Crystal leaned back against her seat although that sentence that Lily had previously said, still rang wrong in her mind. "You do realize that Atlantis and Ryan keeping one another compa-..." Crystal cut her statement short when she noticed that warning glance from Lily. "Okay, yes you win counselor Jankovic. Gosh..." Sipping her wine with an amused expression on her features, she actually could not help herself and just giggled.
Now she had to find a plan to entertain Lily? Since Franz redirected that task to her when Elika first spoke about it. "Nope, no idea whatsoever." Crystal said quickly, although she did have a few ideas and those were really a last minute thing right now if it came to that, then it would come to that, right now though she was drawing a blank but it sounded that Lily had some ideas of her own...
Crystal glanced at her childhood friend when she asked that question in Elika's direction to begin with and, of course, that was something she would have to be facing too... "Here comes the inquisition... Crystal said almost inaudibly before pursing her lips thoughtfully and just shaking her head. She wondered where Lily was getting at with that question, although her childhood friend already knew about her, but right now it sounded to her that it was a sharing moment, one that they couldn't dodge right now.
"You are so impossible, baby girl." Crystal said as she picked up the cigarette from the ashtray to take a drag from it before returning the cigarette where it was, as it looked like Lily and Crystal were definitely going to be sharing cigarettes after cigarettes, that's how it always worked for as long as she remembered, but Lily just smoked when she was drinking...

Tilting her head to the side with an amused grin when Franz whispers that Lily is possessed of strong resolve, Elikapeka nods in agreement and whispers back, "That's why we call her relentless, and then frowns when he says he has no ideas for what they should do next to keep Lily's mind occupied on other things than comming, pouting playfully, You're no help at all," before winking at him and sipping her wine.
When Crystal, apparently as out of ideas as Franz, says that she has no suggestions either, Elika says in pretend panic, "But you were our last hope hon'," and then laughs, looking upwards and pursing her lips in thought as she tries to think of something to pass the time as she listens to amusing the back and forth between Lily and Crystal pick back up.
Before she can think of anything, Lily proposes an idea of her own, and Elika, after silently mouthing an uh-oh to Crystal after she whispers that the inquisition will be starting now, tilts her head to the side as, after considering the question for a moment, she says, Well, I don't know that I really have a list beautiful, but I'll try and think of five things, she smiles as she adds, just for you. Ok, Elika says, well, she grins with a slight blush as she remembers one of their earlier conversations, exotic accents, obviously, can make me all, she adopts a dreamy, distracted look, then laughs self consciously as she goes on, Then there's eyes, I find a woman with really kind, really intelligent eyes extremely attractive, you know? Sipping her wine, Elika asks, Is that five yet? No? Ok, um, well, I find self confidence very attractive. Not, you know, arrogance, just a strong sense of self and what they want. Shrugging, deciding self confidence is not the same thing as arrogance, Elika repeats, Self confidence. Oh, she says, smiling as she thinks of another thing, A sense of humor, that's always something I notice. Is that five yet? No, one more, right? Oh, I know, she sets her wine glass down and sits up animatedly, another thing I find really, really attractive is a woman with really big, she holds her hands up in front of her chest with the palms inward and her thumbs keeping her sleeves in place, not aware that she also cups her palms slightly and probably gives the impression that she is about to say something other than what she says next, love for the arts. Like, someone who appreciates music and poetry and literature, you know? That's a big tu . . . um, I mean I find that someone who is passionate about the arts can make all weak in the knees too. Shrugging, Elika says, So, there you go. Reaching out with her foot to kick Franz gently, eager to get the focus off of her, Elika prods him with a smile, Your turn old woman. Give us your five."

With what Franz had been a witness of thus far, he totally agreed with Elika's murmured statement that indeed Lily was relentless... He still couldn't wrap his mind on the fact that he was in this situation right now, surrounded by three women that he cared about, that was given, but they also had different set of personalities. Even through those differences, he noticed that the three of them got along just fine, and he was just glad about that. As someone who now observed more whether it came from body languages to expressions, it went from being that much overt, always speaking her thoughts, to someone who was in the middle ground and last but not least one that was more often shy than not. But Elika was always pulled upwards one way or the other to just express herself more.
Franz smiled warmly at what he currently was a witness of, and that just brought him warmth. He really was glad that Atlantis decided to mandate him to Elika's protection, although never during the day he felt like he was acting like a bodyguard, the three of them just acted like how they would usually act and even included him to everything. Right now though he knew that he wasn't much help and he looked at Elika with an apologetic expression and made a face before hearing that even Crystal was drawing a blank. The back and forth between Lily and Crystal was still going on though and he could not help but to stifle a laugh and he took a deep breath before making sure that he would be able to take a sip of his wine.
It looked like Lily was going to take the floor and ask a question to Elika, but his eyes widened when he found out that the question would ultimately be tossed in his direction too. Before he could even start thinking about those five things, since it's five things apparently, Franz looked at Elika briefly and then averted his gaze but he listened attentively to the list she was giving. For Franz, it sounded that this was the night that he was definitely going to find out more about Elika than every other nights or days he might have spent with her, he smiled at her list because more or less, his was the same until he looked at her about her last and final point. Just for that, just when she stopped at that word big and the gesture added to that. Franz pursed his lips with an arched eyebrow and then he snorted a laugh because when she finished her statement, it clearly wasn't what he was expecting to hear, not with that gesture of hers.
Clearing his throat, and putting glass down on the table before widening his eyes briefly and taking a deep breath to control his want to laugh right now. Franz scratched the back of his scalp and looked at Elika for a moment. "I, uh... Right." Franz decided otherwise and did not point out the obvious that his mind just went in the gutter right then and there at least that went on until he felt Elika kicking him gently. "It's either you keep calling me old woman or you get to kick me. It cannot be both!" Franz said playfully before laughing and he rolled his eyes playfully before leaning back against his seat to think about his five things...
"I can't really say..." Franz began thoughtfully before thinking further as he lifted a finger. "Right, Model Face or anyone really would probably say that I have a thing for women wearing leather. Which is true when I think about it." When he thought about Karana and then Irisa, that was one although he knew that he amended that more or less without his knowing with Arhianna back then, but there was more to it. Surprisingly though, thinking about Arhi or the others, it did not make him sad or downed his mood, he was fine, just hoping that the three of them were all right. "Then again, probably just the eyes that scream mischief, also the confidence, like you have said Elika." Franz said with a grin before adding on. "Someone who knows what they want and they make a point to get it." He lifted each fingers one by one to count how many that made and he came to four and he made a face before scratching his temple and then finally got it. "Passionate about something, that is a plus, someone who believes in something and just makes it their own."
Franz smirked at the thought before shrugging nonchalantly. "That makes five, right?" Waving his hand playfully, even though he felt the need to add something else, he actually did not want to down the mood so he just stayed his tongue right then and there and picked up his glass again to take a sip of his drink.

"Look," I start to say looking at baby girl almost immediately when she started saying that both of our men being together sounded wrong. I have to admit that but, really? "My mind may always be in the gutter but even I did not imagine that!" I tell her with a serious tone before ending up by slapping her arm gently. "They are like brothers, and it's not like Ryan wants to make out with Lover Boy, like I do with you." I keep saying with that serious expression of mine. Even if I do consider Kayne like a sister, I cannot help it ... As for the two other guys ... They are too straight like a pole anyways.
Sipping my wine calmly will waiting for that reply from gorgeous to the question I have asked her. Honestly? I am interested, truthfully. I want to know what makes her tick, that way I know who I may end up nudging in her direction, if any nudging is necessary ... Still though, this is something for me that is essential to know. I really need to know ... And I may sound desperate in my mind, but it's alright, no one is there in my mind to judge, right? That is precisely when I turn to look at Crystal with wide eyes before thinking ... Remember that one time in Coruscant back at the club when ... And my thoughts go on and on until I arch a dubious eyebrow in baby girl's direction wondering if she heard all that.
But before I can get a reply to that, I look at Elika expectantly to hear what she has to say before smiling widely when she says that it's just for me and I end up winking at her playfully before listening attentively to that famous list until she stops at a critical moment and I just end up blurting. "Big boobs?" I cannot help but to look down at my chest because I still think that mine are still alright, not falling and besides, push up bras work great but then to my dismay, that wasn't it at all. My attention snaps back on Elika and I start laughing uncontrollably before shaking my head and putting my wine glass back onto the table.
"Yeah, see ... That," I begin to say before redoing what she has just done, assuming the same gesture with my hands in front of my chest and all that. "See, that's just doesn't fit with what you said there." I tell her teasingly before giggling and breathing softly. "Unless you do compare that to art too, then okay. I get it, hidden message in that statement." Winking playfully at her, I still cannot get over the fact that I have been led on with that gesture, of course my mind always being in the gutter, I will automatically think that. "You are killing me by the way, gorgeous, just killing me." I tell her jokingly before closing my eyes to remember something, but it's too hard right now, so I may probably see about that tomorrow.
For now, just for now I turn my attention onto Franz and listen to him attentively. "Women in leather, huh?" That is the first question that comes to mind after a nod that tells him that indeed it makes five. "Kinky." Leather to me automatically goes with maybe dominant kind and a whip ... Oh gosh ... Someone stop me now, la la la la ... Hopefully baby girl will do that trick, so I place my hand onto her forearm and look at her with wide eyes. "Baby girl, I need your five now." I tell her as if my life depended on it currently, but I just need to hear it because unfortunately for me, there are elements there from both Franz and Elika that starts to turn me on again ...

Crystal mouthed 'I am sorry' to Elika before making face, and even if she did have a plan to entertain Lily, that wouldn't be enough, however crazy that may turn out. Right now though, Lily did have a point and Crystal looked at her childhood friend with an amused expression. "Okay, okay..." Crystal said with a laughter as she lifted her free hand in surrender. "You are right, I do not see them making out." Crystal conceded at Lily's statement before she finally took a sip of her wine and was about to listen to Elika but she noticed from the corner of her eyes that Lily seemed to be fixated with her.
Crystal looked at Lily dubiously before shrugging her shoulders as she shook her head wondering what was going on now. Sure Crystal got a snippet, about Coruscant but the rest, she was definitely drawing a blank because in the past she had managed to cut that proverbial link that she had with Lily. "Umm, what?" Crystal asked confused only because Lily was looking at her dubiously and she just ended up sipping her wine before lowering her glass again. "If you just had an internal monologue right then and there, I have no idea." Crystal stated factually before putting her glass down onto the table. "Remember, I can't hear you anymore, thank the powers that be." She added on with a relieved tone before laughing since obviously she was quite aware of Lily's inner monologue and always having her mind in the gutter, but thankfully Crystal no longer heard a thing.
Right now though she was more interested in hearing Elika's turn ons, and the list sounded familiar, at least to Crystal because that more or less was in the same vein as hers, until that final point came, Crystal's eyes widened in surprise because she wasn't expecting that to be the last one and it did not help when Lily finished her statement, Crystal could not help but to laugh at that and her laughter doubled when Elika said something else that had originally came to Crystal's mind with that gesture of hers. Thankfully she wasn't drinking or holding anything right now because that would have ended up with her either spilling her wine right in front of her or just spitting it all over.
Crystal still couldn't control her laughter and she pointed at Lily as she glanced at Elika amusingly because indeed, that was her first thought too. Oh gosh... Even her eyes had started to form tears from her laughing too much and she wiped her tears away with her index finger until she finally got a hold of herself to listen attentively to Franz's turn ons. Again her laughter restarted due to Lily and she shook her head before covering her mouth until she felt Lily's hand onto her forearm noticing that Lily had that desperate look on her features now.
Lifting her index finger to request for a moment, Crystal continued to giggle from time to time which she ended up stifling by biting her lower lip and when she was partially sure that she could control that, she took a deep breath and looked at her childhood friend and both at Franz and Elika. "Right." Clearing her throat again for good measure, Crystal finally looked back at Lily with a knowing expression. "Selfless personality, knows to have a good time and be serious when needed, eyes, smile and," Crystal picked up her glass to take a sip of her drink and just swallow the liquid before adding on as she put the glass back down on the table. "Ass."

Blushing when Lily explains why she had exclaimed what she had before Elikapeka had given the last of her five things, Elika tilts her head to the side in confusion before she finally gets what Lily means by the gesture that had led her to conclude what she had concluded, and then laughs, crinkling her nose as she tries to explain, "I was trying to demonstrate great passion beautiful, you know, like . . . about to repeat the gesture, Elika decides that she is probably only inviting disaster, and waves her hands outward instead and grins as she says, Never mind, I can see how you might have thought what you thought. And there was no hidden message either," she adds with a wink.
When Franz tells her that she needs to choose between kicking him or calling him old woman, Elika pouts theatrically and moans, "But it's so much fun to do both together," and then smiles sweetly at him and lets him know which one she will continue doing by kicking him playfully. Settling back into a comfortable position after leaning forward to refill her wine glass, Elika listens as Franz gives his list of five things. The first thing on Franz's list is surprising to Elika, and Lily's comment about it is hilarious, but she thinks the other things on his list sound like things that he would find attractive based on what she knows of him.
Laughing when Crystal completes her list with an unexpected item, Elika scoots over closer to Franz after setting her wine down and puts her hands near his ears, explaining, "I remember my promise to protect your ears, then looks at Lily and cringes theatrically with one eye closed as she says, Ok beautiful, give us your five. We're ready. I think."

Franz wasn't surprised at all when Lily just blurted out what he had been thinking originally and it also seemed that Crystal had thought of that with her wide eyes and all. Franz bit his lower lip and shook his head slightly to warn Elika to no do that again. With their present company, he could imagine where the conversation would lead already and he got further confirmation when Lily described one of his turn on to be kinky after Elika had decided on what she clearly was going to keep on doing.
"Yeah, but think of it this way. Would you factually keep on kicking a literal old woman?" Franz asked teasingly before he pretended to wince at her kick, and that he was in current pain. He took a deep breath and lifted his leg that she had been aiming for this whole time and nursed it like a sick pup. "You could switch from time to time, you know?" He said with a wounded expression before winking at her playfully before he settled down against his seat again as he put his leg down too. He listened to Crystal and he smirked knowingly thinking that it definitely fit Atlantis, although for the last thing, Franz did not know, he wasn't in the business of checking his cousin's backside all the time. That was just wrong...
From the corner of his eyes though he noticed that Elika was scooting next to him and he raised his eyebrow dubiously before laughing softly when he got her explanation. He knew that even if she covered his ears, he might still hear if he wanted to. "There is a teensie problem about that... Franz said in a hushed tone before taking a deep breath and finally adding on. "I may still hear it, but did you also want me to cover your ears?" He asked with chuckle and teasingly as he noticed clearly Elika's expression right now and quite honestly, anything related to Lily, Franz didn't want to think about it really.
She had said it, her mind was always in the gutter and considering where this conversation might have gone, Lily might just say what was what without a filter. He could tell that she wasn't ashamed at all and that she did not care about what the others thought about her or what the others might be thinking about her words. That was definitely confidence, and not even stopping at censoring her words. He could tentatively guess that it was maybe one of those reasons why Ryan fell for her. Maybe, he did not know due to the fact that he had never asked really how they got together to begin with.
Franz was actually interested in hearing what Lily had to say so he moved his hands up to Elika's and looked at her with a knowing grin, he did not hesitate to squeeze her hands as a thanks but then he took a deep breath and focused his attention here and now. "I'll be your moral support, if you are scarred because of her five things, you can take comfort that I have been a victim of that too?" Franz suggested with a chuckle before he released Elika's hands and let them free from his hold although he was now making a face at what he might hear, but just for jokes and giggles of course.

Well that is a relief that baby girl really no longer hears my inner monologue although come to think of it, I am maybe a little offended by that especially that I have just shared a great memory. That is not true though, why would I be offended really, it is no brainer that it is a relief for me, like it is for her, that she no longer hears me yapping and yapping in my mind ... My attention automatically returns to gorgeous when she tries to explain herself, even if her statement makes sense, which it does, I do not buy it entirely, not with that gesture there ...
"Look, gorgeous," I start telling her before I take a sip of my wine and putting the glass back down onto the table. "My mind is always in the gutter, you cup your hands right in front of your chest, I am going to automatically think that." Winking playfully at her before leaning back against my seat to hear all about Crystal's turn ons even if I already know about those. I listen to her list which hasn't changed that much since the last time and nod in approval.
"Obviously Lover Boy has all of the above." I tell Crystal with a knowing expression before shrugging nonchalantly and letting out a deep breath. "So yes, I may have checked out his ass a few times, and I have to admit, it looks like he does have a nice firm one." Not that I have groped him but still he is often here and sometimes just in those jogging pants without his long coat own, and I have eyes, and so I look, who is going to blame me for that? Honestly ...
Looking dubiously at gorgeous for a moment and noticing that she is getting closer to Franz to cover his eyes, I look at them both very jadedly before rolling my eyes exasperatedly although I am just joking because right now, it's just amusing to see Elika babying a grown up man like Franz, and I am sure that he is not that innocent anyways. C'mon! Playfully glaring at Franz and Elika, I shake my head and end up laughing at their frightened because I am sure that they know what to expect from me anyways. Mind always in the gutter, oh yeah ...
"Okay then." Picking up my glass of wine and downing the glass, I have had too many glasses already that I have lost count but at least I still do make sense right? Why am I still making sense. Oh yeah, right! We just ate ... Anyways, so not the point. "As you all may know or not." At least baby girl knows about this and maybe gorgeous does have that idea so maybe Franz doesn't. "I can be quite promiscuous, at least that was pre-Ryan, but," Tucking my legs underneath me, I smile faintly because maybe it isn't so bad, my list that is, or yes there is some blatantly sexual innuendo there, but whatever! "Whenever I look at a guy, he has to have that hook, whether it's by a smile, his eyes or just the way he moves. Then he will have to know how to keep up because I can be quite demanding. But I also like it when a guy knows how to say no and just stands his ground. Right and the musky cologne is a must, definitely the cologne but he also will have to be equipped and just knows how to use it." I say with a faint giggle at my last list, that is definitely something important to me, because really faking it for me, is out of the question which causes me to make a face at that thought. Ugh ...

Crystal was looking at Lily with an amused expression when her childhood friend mentioned that clearly Atlantis had all of the above on her list... Crystal should have known, it was no surprise to her that Lily would be staring, which caused her to laugh at what Lily had bluntly stated about checking out Atlantis. Crystal not wanting to get to much into that, she just ended sipping her glass of wine with a knowing grin before blinking once to actually confirm that.
Her amusement did not die down when she heard Franz and Elika going to their own back and forth and she shook her head playfully watching Franz faking being hurt by the kicks. "Poor Franz being the current martyr..." She said playfully before refilling her own glass of wine and the others that needed to be refilled. But this bottle seemed to be empty so she moved that aside and picked another bottle to uncork it while watching Elika cover poor sweet Franz's ear.
Despite his ears being covered, he would still hear? Oh right he had that certain faculty to hear far beyond any what most of the people could hear. At least that was what she remembered Atlantis telling her, something about Force listening or something like that? It made Franz a good eavesdropper but then again, Crystal was never worried about that and she certainly wasn't inclined to share with the others about his faculty, that was between him and the Force.
Done with uncorking the bottle, Crystal placed the newly opened one on the table and leaned back against her seat with an amused giggle, After everything they had been hearing thusfar from Lily, Crystal was surprised that both Franz and Elika weren't still used to it. Granted that Lily never filtered her statements and she just said things like they were. It was one of those things that Crystal loved about Lily, never beating around the bush and just saying things like a fact...
Now that she was hearing Lily's list, Crystal would have normally made a face because whether it was pre-Ryan or not, that list was applicable to her little brother, but considering that she had known Lily far longer than Ryan, sure she had developed a bond with her brother because he had been teaching her to heal, well currently Lily was still and factually the person that she knew the most between the two of them. Crystal knew those facts about Lily but it did not stop her from laughing at that last point she made, and her laughter doubled when she saw Lily's face, just by that expression alone, Crystal understood definitely.
"Oh yeaaaaaah..." Crystal agreed on that last point, definitely. But hey, considering that she had known Lily for a long, long and long time, Crystal was really happy that she had settled with someone. "It's a miracle that she found someone that satisfies her entirely." She could not help but to add teasingly before nudging Lily, but fact was she was still happy for her and Ryan, that was a given.

The alcohol beginning to have an effect on her again, the best comeback Elikapeka can come up with when Franz asks if she would kick an old woman is sniff accompanied by the statement, "Of course not, but since you're not really an old woman but jus' ack like one, is'ok, see? Giggling after delivering what she thinks was a quite witty comeback, Elika kicks the opposite leg of the one she last kicked and asks Franz playfully, Happy now? Shaking her head when Franz asks if he should cover her ears, Elika says, I c'n handle anythin' she says, then nods and, after he releases her hands, smiles as she says, Okey dokey, we c'n get through this t'gether, yep."
"We all know that a'ready beau'ful, Elika tells Lily, rolling her eyes teasingly when Lily points out the her mind is always in the gutter, a condition which led her to interpret the gesture Elika had made in a way different than it had been meant. then laughs when Lily admits to having noticed Atlantis' bum. Waving her hand in a get on with it motion, Elika smiles and tells Lily, Give us the five a'ready beau'ful," then adopts a pose indicative of steeling herself to be shocked.
After Lily has listed her five things, which Elika found tamer than expected, she tells Franz, "That wa'nt so bad was it, huh? Not having spent much time around Crystal's brother, Elika doesn't know enough about him to gauge whether or not he meets the criteria Lily has described, nor, on consideration, would she really be able to judge them except for the smell thing maybe, but she gathers from Crystal's comment that he must be a match for Lily, and so she tells Lily happily, Well, 'm glad you got a miracle beau'ful, you d'serve it," sincerely happy that Lily has found someone that obviously makes her happy.
It is, Elika imagines, probably her turn to come up with something to do and so, having an idea of something, she stands and says, "Be righ' back, and then makes her way a bit unsteadily inside the house. Finding four shot glasses, and then a bottle of Namana liquor, Elika fills the shot glasses and puts the bottle back since she doesn't trust herself to have just one shot if she brings the bottle outside, and then carefully carries the shot glasses back to the recessed lounge area and cheerfully announces, Time f'r shozz, looks confused and giggles as she says, That isn' right, then carefully pronounces, Shots, and passes the tiny glasses around as she explains, I 'membered there was some namana lef', and so I thought we'd do shots. I brought the glasses 'cause if I didn', someone, she glances at Lily, sticking her tongue out playfully, prob'ly would have sugguessed body shots or somethin' crazy, so I was proacky and brought the cute little glasses. Sitting back down, Elika cheerily announces, I'm tissy again by'a way, and then down her shot and sets the glass down, looking suddenly worried as she asks, Uh oh, is it safe'a mix namana after wine? Or is that the one that makes you hurl?"
