Hoo..you really wanna get this engine goin’, huh??

[ he says this through pleasured chuckles. ]

I ain’t gonna back down. Come at me.

[ He coos a bit as she presses her lips against his neck. Man.. he could never tire of her affections. ]

It’s okay— all’s well that ends well.

I guess we oughta make up for lost time, then.

Hey~.

I’ve missed you.

HOWDY

I tried my best to.. ain’t easy fer ol’ Hol Horse to sleep like a baby, these days.

( He remarks this as he presses a hand against that curvy frame of hers. )

You look like you slept mighty finely though, princess.

He awaited her restlessly— how her hips sway in that lavender robe she was so fond of.. how the scent of perfume filled the very room they shared many a time before.. however mundane it appeared, he missed it.

Hol finds himself sifting through the pages of the morning paper, listlessly.. a drag of a cigar in the morning offsetting his boredom.

It was a day like any other, but it shone a little less bright for now.. @reflectangel.bsky.social wasn't up yet.

Illuso~.

April Fools was 9 days back

hehe. I gotcha.

Well.. I reckon that certain mister wasn’t bluffin’ about stickin’ around…

The life of a vagabond ain’t much better— but I bet it’s all the sweeter with you.

( beckoning her forward. )

Come on, na’.. let’s get a move on.

Run we shall, baby. ‘Til the soles of these boots wear out and this heart stops beatin’, I’ll run.

( He lifts Illuso’s gaze towards his, before planting a kiss upon her lips. )

.. and as long as I breathe, I’ll keep runnin’ with you.

Ol’ Hol Horse ain’t a stranger to runnin’ away from bosses. All these years.. you can bet yer bottom dollar I know how to make a sweet escape.

( He holds her close, looking down unto her with intention. )

We’re safe and sound, you ‘n’ I.. we’re an invincible duo. Promise

Lord.. how could I say no to this..?

( he sighs a bit, a chuckle in tow. )

Fine. You want out? You can run wit’ me.. be an investigator, ‘fsorts.

Well, whatever are we gon’ do about that?

[ Grinning. He could likely find her some work.. ]
