i. tech testing

[ Most of Cisco's work is done within the privacy of his workshop, but there comes a time when he has to leave and find a nice quiet place to actually test some of the tech that he's made. The one time he'd done so outside the wall, things had gone very very badly. So he makes a compromise, finds an alleyway that is within the city but deserted. Sure, he might blow up a dumpster or two and make quite a racket, but he is less likely to get attacked by monsters here, and if anyone disturbs him he can just tell them to clear out.

That's the theory, anyway. But some of the stuff he brought with him might be a bit more powerful than he'd intended... ]

ii. nesting

[ Cisco had been very tentative about his new living situation, at first. He didn't want to get too comfortable, in case Yuri changed his mind, or Eddie got sick of him. But after a few weeks, with no signs that they want him to leave, Cisco starts to think about maybe settling in to his new room. It's fairly stark, still - just a bed, some sheets, and an old couch. All his clothes are still in bags, but the first thing on his list is some dark curtains for the windows. He was never meant to be a morning person.

He can be seen in various shops in the quarantine, looking at furniture, rugs, curtains, etcetera. Cisco's not above asking random strangers for their opinion, either. ]

What do you think, this one or this one?

iii. misc

[ Come plot something! ]

Comments

[causational]

[Eddie can feel it, the way Cisco relaxes and melts into him when he hugs him, closes hands into the back of Eddie's jacket to cling to him, and Eddie can smell his wet hair. It takes him back to last night, to the way Cisco's hair had smelled while he moved against him, makes him wonder if Cisco still has that bruise at the back of his shoulder because he knows he still has a dozen tiny kiss bruises on his own throat.

Pushing those thoughts aside, Eddie takes a sharp breath, and when that officer walks by and clears his throat, Eddie pulls out of the hug regretfully, looking down at Cisco while he pushes his hair back and jokes at him. Eddie manages a smile that's genuine and reaches his eyes as he lets go of Cisco.]

I mean, you're going to have to force me to care about missing work, but...

[A pause, and then-]

Thanks, Cisco. For the sandwich, and for...everything. See you tonight.

[And with that, Cisco is gone, and Eddie sits at his desk, pulls out the sandwich, and tries to just turn his brain off for the rest of his shift.]
