Log;

Ash Williams really like his job at the bakery. He got to be a salesman, work with his hands, and be useful.

And he wasn't half bad at it all, either. He was adjusting to city life... okay. But the prospect of making good friends with a certain fiesty redhead made him smirk. He was crooning a bit of Elvis' "Blue Suede Shoes" to himself as he frosted some cupcakes.

Cadman walked into the bakery and grinned; Ash was apparently an Elvis fan. Not so much of a shock, but still pretty damn endearing.

"Do you take requests? 'Cos if so, I've gotta ask for 'A Little Less Conversation' next."

She moved closer and stuck out her hand to shake. "Nice to finally meet you in the flesh, Ash."

[housewares-ash.livejournal.com]

And given she probably offered her right hand, she was getting a palm full of cold metal.

"What there is of it," he had to quip. "Nice meetin' you, Cadman."

[bohica-apu.livejournal.com]

Cadman raised an eyebrow at the obvious... modifications, but said nothing. Ash'd explain if and when he wanted to; wasn't much of a point to asking about what wasn't her business.

"Likewise, Ash."

She grinned and looked him up and down, adding just a touch of lascivious appreciation. "I don't know, doesn't seem to me like there's anything wrong with what you've got now, sugar."

She winked. "I always like a man who knows his way around the kitchen."

[housewares-ash.livejournal.com]

"I don't do half bad," Ash downplayed. "So. What's your pleasure? You got you pick of the place, here." He drew his thumb under his bottom lip, taking out a smudge of frosting that had been there.

"I guess it just depends on what you're in the mood for."

[bohica-apu.livejournal.com]

She grinned, and let her eyes move up and down Ash's body appreciatively. She stepped closer, and said, "I think I'm in the mood for-"

Oh my God, were those cheese danishes? She straightened up and forgot flirting for the moment, distracted by the delicious pastry.

She grinned. "Danish. I'm in the mood for danish."

[housewares-ash.livejournal.com]

"Danish," Ash said, scanning the shelves, though all he had to do was follow Cadman's eyeline. He found them, but took a good look down Cadman's body, first. He grabbed one out with a bit of wax paper and held it out.

"This, huh?"

[bohica-apu.livejournal.com]

Cadman noticed Ash's none-too-subtle approach to checking her out, and obligingly took off her BDU jacket. "There, now you get the full effect."

She grinned, and grabbed at the danish in his hand. "Hell yeah that, Ash. Gimme."

[housewares-ash.livejournal.com]

Ash surrendered the danish without any struggle, a smirk on his face. "All yours, baby. So, where you from, anyways?"

[bohica-apu.livejournal.com]

"That's what I like to hear."

Cadman took a large bite of the danish, then after swallowing and licking her fingers, she replied, "All over, really. Dad was a full bird colonel in the Marines; we moved a lot." She shrugs. "Momma was from Georgia, and we spent a lot of time there... s'pose you could say I'm from Georgia, when it comes down to it."

Another huge bite, followed by a noise that- if one were inclined to dirty minded thoughts- sounded pretty damn close to orgasmic. "Fucking hell, Ash, I don't know if this is the best cheese danish I've ever eaten or if I'm just really fucking hungry." A beat, then, "Maybe both."

She licked her fingers again. "What about you?"

[housewares-ash.livejournal.com]

"Michigan, born and raised," he said, the smirk on his face practically permanent. "Took a slight detour to King Arthur's kingdom for a bit, though."

[bohica-apu.livejournal.com]

Cadman paused mid-mite of danish, then shook her head. "You know what, I'm not even gonna ask. And considering the premier team at the SGC ran around after something Mitchell kept calling 'Merlin's Death Ray', I can't exactly be pullin' the crazy card right now."

She finished off the last of the danish, and sucked her fingers clean of any stickiness, then sighed happily. "I am considering giving up on people and devoting my time to seducing baked goods. That was seriously amazing, Ash."

[housewares-ash.livejournal.com]

"Wish I could take credit for it," Ash said. "Danishes are a little out of my expertise right now." He leaned back a bit, stroking his chin with his metal hand. "Should I be asking about that SGC thing?"

[bohica-apu.livejournal.com]

Cadman grinned at Ash, hip-checking him gently. "Hey, you hooked me up with it; I give you all the credit."

She shrugged. "Yeah, why not?" She sighed deeply. "Okay, info dump time. Long story short: aliens exist, some are evil, most are annoying and/or cryptic, the SGC uses a thing called the Stargate to travel via wormhole to travel to other planets; Atlantis is real and I was stationed there for a while, but it's not an island; it's really a floating city located in the Pegasus galaxy." A beat. "And I don't know if the SGC exists in your universe, but I would not suggest discussing the possibility in public should you get home, because that's when you get shot and/or arrested."

[housewares-ash.livejournal.com]

"What about you? You long you been working at the bakery?" She snagged one of the cupcakes and dragged her fingertip through the icing, then slipped it into her mouth and sucked it clean- admittedly, not subtle in any way, shape, or form, but if Ash could do the high school stretch and hold, she could pull the classic 'guess what this finger is standing in for' move embraced by many a person before her- then moaned happily and asked, "And more importantly, how can I get a steady supply of these fantastic cupcakes?"

"Worked here since the day I arrived. Leeloo, she's the chick that runs the place. Helped me get settled and all that. She's a bit... spacey, but she's all right," Ash said. He leaned over a little. "You getting settle all right?"

[bohica-apu.livejournal.com]

"Hey, as long as she's not evil, I call it a win."

When Ash leaned closer, Cadman obligingly arched her back slightly and pulled back her shoulders; if Ash looked, he would have nice view of her cleavage.

"I'm doing all right. I'm using the spare room in someone else's apartment for now; at the end of the month, I'll either start helping with rent or find a place for myself." She grinned and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "Depends on if anything better comes up, I suppose."

[housewares-ash.livejournal.com]

By this point, Ash was beyond the point of "chicken" or even small talk.

The king of subtlety merely ducked his head close and said. "Give me some sugar, baby."

[bohica-apu.livejournal.com]

Cadman grinned, allowed herself an inner victory dance- winner, and still undefeated champion, huzzah!- then got down to the serious business of making out like a pair of teenagers in someone's basement.

She closed the gap between them and brought their lips together, starting the kiss slow; buildup is half of the battle. After a few moments, she pulled away, frowning. Ash was a damn good kisser, but a few more minutes at this angle and the only thing she would feel like kissing was an industrial size bottle of Advil for the crick in her neck. "Hold on a second here."

She pushed herself up to her knees and placed one on either side on his lap, then leaned in again. "Ah, here we go. Much better."

She pressed closer and brought her hand up to the nape of Ash's neck, then raked her nails lightly up his scalp, eventually threading her fingers through the hair at the back of his head. Her other hand rested on his shoulder, fingernails digging in slightly as the kiss grew less playful.

[housewares-ash.livejournal.com]

With such a sly and charming seduction demeanor of 'Give me some sugar', Ash kind of had to be a good kisser. He didn't really have much of a thought process, here. There was a pretty girl and kissing to be had.

He did his best to do much of his touching with his left hand. The right, after all, not only had a tendency to throw women off their game (being metal and all) but the whole fact he couldn't actually feel anything with it meant there wasn't much point to using it. So his right hand was the anchor, resting at the back of Cadman's neck. The left, however, was working its way down Cadman's side as he kissed her.

And hell, he could still taste a little bit of frosting. That was a bonus.

[bohica-apu.livejournal.com]

Cadman pulled back for a moment and rested her forehead against Ash's. She nipped at his lower lip, then smiled against his mouth and said, "You know, you're damn good at this, darlin'."

She dropped a quick kiss on the left corner of his mouth, then pulled away fully. "Think it can still get better, though."

She grabbed the hem of her shirt and pulled it up and over her head, then tossed it of the floor next to the couch. "There, that's a start."

She grabbed Ash's hands- both of 'em, metal too; after all the SGC had thrown at her over the years, a metal hand was small potatos in a field of giant mutant evil potatoes, and besides, ain't no call in asking a man to touch you if you won't touch all of him- and placed them over her breasts. "And that's an even better one."

[housewares-ash.livejournal.com]

"Hell, baby. I should invite girls over for danishes more often," Ash said, not exactly the smoothest operator. But he leaned back in, nipping at her neck with little bites and kisses. Yeah, the right thing to do at that point would've been to take off his own shirt, but he was half hoping she'd do it for him.

[bohica-apu.livejournal.com]

Cadman lightly cuffed Ash on the back of the head. "Less talking about making it with other women while you're making it with me, idiot. I'm not the jealous type, but I gotta draw the line somewhere."

She tilted her head, giving Ash better access to her neck, and toyed with the hem of his shirt, slipping her hands beneath it and raking her nails over the skin of his lower back just hard enough to avoid being ticklish, leaving faint red marks in their wake. "Mmm... you gonna reciprocate, baby mine, or am I gonna have to do it for you?"

[housewares-ash.livejournal.com]

"I'm busy," Ash snarked, nipping a little harder at the soft bit of Cadman's neck.

Yeah, he was still kind of a jackass.

[bohica-apu.livejournal.com]

Cadman moaned at the harder bite, and said breathily, "Bitch, bitch, bitch." Her breath hitched on the last 'bitch' as Ash bit down hard again.

She moved a hand up to Ash's head and tugged firmly at his hair, pulling his mouth away from her neck; she shivered when air hit the moist skin, then kept a firm grip when Ash tried to move back.

"You want me to do the work, you gotta let me do it, babe."

She nipped sharply at Ash's lower lip, then pulled his shirt over his head; when it was off, she moved closer in, pressing their chests together and kissing Ash before he could say something that would probably require laughter or another smack upside the head.

[housewares-ash.livejournal.com]

Ash held her close, giving her just that right amount of tongue in the kiss. He spread his palms against her back, until he reached for her bra.

That definitely had to go.

[bohica-apu.livejournal.com]

Cadman broke the kiss, breathing a bit heavily. "Jesus God baby, but you are a good kisser."

She laughed softly as Ash's hands crept towards the closure of her bra. "You gonna help me get naked, or are you waitin' for an engraved invitation, babe?"

She lowered her head and bit sharply at Ash's collarbone, sucking hard enough to leave a deep purple bruise.

"Will that do, or do I need to be more specific?"
