[OPEN THREAD!] HAPPY THANKSGIVING GUYS!

Characters: EVERYONE!
Setting: All over the mansion!
Content: It's Thanksgiving for all you American folks, so let's celebrate and be thankful!
Status: It's the US OPEN! WHOOO!

It's thanksgiving weekend. Anyone who hasn't gone home to their family is milling about. The faculty has sprung for an enormous bird and all the fixings, with some student volunteers to help out with preparations. Dinner is around 6ish, possibly later.

Post here with any and all Thanksgiving related activities you desire. Tell people who you're thankful for, gorge yourself of foodstuffs, get excessive with your shopping, do the hokey pokey with a native american headdress. Just have fun! Logan, like me, is probably somewhere grousing about how Thanksgiving was back in October, but (like me) he's not going to complain about a turkey dinner do-over!

Julian. [She gives him one of those looks that are normally reserved for studying sessions. As in the look that says 'I know you're not stupid so please stop acting like it.' Cuteness is only going to take him so far. And speaking all sexy like around a marshmallow just really... isn't possible.] You do know that I know at least half a dozen ways to kill you, right?

[He swallows the marshmallow, so he can go back to doing possible sexy things. Plus, he is looking quite unintimidated and bemused by that familiar look of hers. It's so cute when she gets all impatient and can't take a joke.] Damn sweetheart, you're so sexy when you threaten me.

[Look she has important things to do, okay? Like baking this pie. Pies are important and do not wait for jokes. Just ask the giant Brit giving orders over there. She rolls her eyes with smile as she turns back to her work.] Anyone ever tell you that you're a strange person, sugah?

[Jono and his orders can go suffocate himself in the mashed potatoes, for all Julian cares. (Although the pie is important; she should definitely keep making the pie.) S'why he leans over towards her, pulls his sleeve down enough to playfully and affectionately nudge her chin.] You tell me every day, sugar. But I think it might be your way of saying you like me.

Yup. That's exactly what it is. [It's a struggle to keep a straight face as she replies.] How'd you figure it out?

You're kind of obvious about how you feel about me, beautiful.

Uh-huh. And how would that be exactly?

[Julian's leaning over towards her, elbow propped on the counter now. His grin is wide, suggestive, self-assured, etc. What all Julian Keller's grins are made of.]

It's no secret you adore me.

'Adore' might be a strong word... [There's going to be no feeding of Julian Keller's ego today. Nope. None at all. She's going to stand firm on that. And mix up these ingredients.]

[And Julian's going to stick a finger in the mixture to stick in his mouth and taste it. It's never a day to feed Julian Keller's ego with Rogue. But he knows. Oh, he knows.] Well that's awkward, beautiful, because I adore you.

[Smacking him with a bare hand isn't an option so she settles to using the spoon to smack the guilty hand. Oh and there may be a teeny bit of blushing going around.] Isn't there some silly game on that you're supposed to be watching, sugah?

[Owie. :( Julian pulls his hand away, but too late. He winces, but his smile flashing into a pleased grin at her blush. He swings around again to slide an arm around her waist, ducking his head to hover his lips over her shoulder.] I have no clue what you're talking about. I'm exactly where I wanna be.

[She can't help but smile at that and to pause in her work for a moment to enjoy the feeling of his arms around her. Her eyes close for a moment as she murmurs a reply.] They might end up putting you to work if you keep distracting me like this.

[His lips find her shoulder, and he kisses it above her shirt, squeezing her back against him with a audible, content sigh. His voice is soft, muffled before he pulls back to finish his response near her ear.] I'll just say you were distracting me, sweetheart. It's not a lie...

Distracting you from what? Football and beer? [She grins as she opens her eyes again, adding and mixing ingredients again.] I'm sure they'll take that charge very seriously.

[He rests his cheek against her hair, looking down at the bowl with her with a soft smile and a chuckle.] It is serious. In fact, I'm sure the commercial break is over by now... [He peers up at the clock across the room. It's been several minutes. Oh god, his game. D: But he can hold out a bit more. He turns his eyes back to her, his lips tugging up.] And where am I? Watching you make pie.

Aww, I feel so special! [Now she's just teasing him. She can't help it. The bowl gets set aside in favour of a pile of dough and a rolling pin.]

You should feel special. [He says this teasingly, maybe looking over his shoulder in the direction of the rec room. Shhh.]

[She catches that glance out of the corner of her eye and half turns, nudging him gently with her hip.] Go watch the game, sugah.

[Damn, he's been caught. Still, he leans in towards her face and raises an eyebrow, his eyes dipping down to her lips for a moment.] Will you bring me a beer and a sandwich?

[She just outright laughs at that.] Hell no! You've got two legs and two hands. You can get 'em yourself, sugah. [Yes yes. She knows he's teasing now.]

[His lips stretch into a grin and he leans back, pulling away from her to weave around a passing student and open the fridge in the limited space he can. He snakes a hand in and pulls out a beer, showing it to her with a wink. Then he reaches into the fridge further and pulls out half of a leftover sandwich he ate yesterday. Then he returns to loosely wrap an arm around her again, smiling down at her.] Now make me some pie while I watch the game, sweetheart. [The urge to crane his neck and plant a departing kiss to her lips is daunting, but he manages to ignore it.]

[She rolls her eyes and shakes her head at him.] You're real lucky I like you, sugah.

You're real lucky I like you, too. [He leans down to kiss her hair, pulling away from her to walk around the kitchen island and towards the door.] I have to get my own beer and sandwich. Who do you think you are?

[Rogue's showing a lot of self restraint right now by just shaking her head again and making a somewhat rude gesture in his direction. He's lucky, okay? There's an apple nearby that she totally could've chucked at his head!]
