True to her word, Gipsy waits.
Of course, she can't do much other than that -- she's fairly constrained by previous injuries, and though her arm has been reattached and repaired she still can't quite walk on her own. This, Gipsy makes abundantly clear in beeps and grumbles, but it's mostly ignored because there's nothing they can do about it quite yet. Progress is being made, but it's not nearly fast enough for her satisfaction.
It's why she's grumpy as hell when he comes the next day; beeps decidedly irritated and far too loud for someone that had been drifting solo with a jaeger the previous day.
(( other conclusions Here. ))

No. I have nothing to hide from you anyway. Sometimes it can get a little embarrassing, but I don't mind.

Date: 2013-07-19 04:43 am (UTC)It should...really be mutual.
She's reluctant, though.

Date: 2013-07-19 04:45 am (UTC)He sits up a little and turns his head around so he can see her face.
Gipsy, honey, if you're uncomfortable with me seeing something in your head then you don't have to show me. It's okay. You have every right to privacy.
Just because I don't much care about my own privacy doesn't mean you can't care about yours.

Date: 2013-07-19 04:49 am (UTC)Still, she wants to show him some things -- maybe not all, but some. She cracks a door and lets a few of her little secrets out; how much she enjoys holding him and how much she'd like it to be 'real', how much she enjoys his little kisses to her forehead or cheek, and how much she enjoys it when she does something right to make him happy or smile.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-19 04:54 am (UTC)I like making you smile too, sweetheart.
Since she's being so forthcoming, he'll show her how much he likes it when she smiles, or when she laughs, how he feels accomplished when he knows he's made her feel better when she's been feeling down.
Unfortunately the 'real' thing seems pretty unfeasible, since she can't really feel him when he's out of her head and there isn't a lot he can think of that will change that.

Date: 2013-07-19 04:57 am (UTC)It isn't feasible at all, and she knows it. There's regret and sadness that accompanies that particular emotion, and she doesn't linger long. Instead, she focuses on the happier ones, the ones she can do something about. Creating this avatar was one of the best things she's ever done, and she lets that show for him, too.

no subject
Date: 2013-07-19 05:57 am (UTC)She enjoyed his company and his voice. He was a comforting presence.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-19 06:08 am (UTC)You're pretty comforting to me too, Gipsy.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-19 02:01 pm (UTC)His words send another flood of happiness through her, and she holds him tightly against her, lips finding his temple.
So long as I am functioning, I will be here for you, Hercules. Never forget that.

Date: 2013-07-19 03:33 pm (UTC)He leans back against her for a few more moments before he sighs.
I should go.

Date: 2013-07-19 03:49 pm (UTC)He's already pushing it, really, Drifting with her as much as he is, even if they don't do anything physical and just frolic around in each other's heads. He should know better.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-19 03:52 pm (UTC)He should know better, and Gipsy sighs, then presses a little kiss to his temple.
Go. Take a day, and rest. I will be here when you are ready.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-19 03:53 pm (UTC)I'll see you later, then.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-19 03:55 pm (UTC)The avatar disappears and he's booted from the system. As he starts to leave, Gipsy beeps -- once for yes, later.
