[disrupts]

[ Looking for a way to save himself back home's not hard to imagine. Despite what Johnny said, despite the thoughts he let get to him, he wants to survive. He wants it so badly. While Kerry knows him deeply enough to know that it's impossible for him to stay static in one place for any length of time, he's just as sure of something else. ]

Wherever I am... don't doubt that I can't wait to get back to ya.

[ There's no question about that. Adventure's what he aches for, but family - people he loves - he aches for them just as much. ]

[secondconflict]

I don't doubt it either.

[Kerry replies with a smile. He misses V when they're apart too.]

Just know that reunion is gonna be hot as hell. Probably'll need a few days to recover.

[disrupts]

[ He loves Kerry more than he's eloquent enough to explain. He's read poetry before, back when he was a kid more than now, and could probably quote some of it still. But he wants the words to be his own, just like Ker's are when he writes songs. ]

Don't doubt it.

Probably gonna have to lay low. Can't think of anybody I'd want to lay low with more.

[ It's the biggest indicator that he can give that he fully believes he'll return. No part of him believes that he went thinking he wasn't going to, and he'll fight with everything he's got inside of him to make sure he does. ]

[secondconflict]

Definitely.

We should go on a trip. Maybe Boracay?

Beaches there ain't what they used to be, but when you know what you're lookin' for, you can still get a pretty good like vacay spot.

[disrupts]

Count me in. You, me, a beach that doesn't smell like shit? Never gonna say no to that.

[secondconflict]

We haven't had a chance to visit yet... Too much shit happenin.'

We definitely gotta once we're back. I wanna show you the whole world. Least the parts worth seein.'

[disrupts]

Know I can't say no to an adventure either.

[ Despite how fucked up he feels about everything going on, everything he knows second-hand is waiting for them at home, he can feel the thrill of excitement at the idea. Traveling with Kerry, seeing new places. Just being on the move and exploring new parts of the world he's never seen before. ]

I'll show ya how to be a nomad.

[secondconflict]

[Kerry makes an amused sound at that.]

They got olives for my martinis with nomad caravans?

[He has spent time off the grid before. Every time he visits his guru that's the experience there. But he's not really the type to travel the way nomads do.]

[disrupts]

I'd find olives for your martinis.

[ Even if he had to steal them, he'd make sure they had some. It's not exactly a nomad specialty, but for Kerry he's willing to make an exception. ]

Life on the road's not really 'bout what you have beyond food and makin' sure whatever you're driving can keep up.

Some gigs got their bonuses though. I ever tell you 'bout that time we found ten boxes of oranges?

[ Fresh fruit was always a good find, and whether or not they found the oranges or the oranges were part of a bigger job they were running... he'll let Kerry explore that idea on his own. ]

Vitamin C. That's the bonus.

[secondconflict]

Holy shit. Real oranges? Like, real 'ganic shit? [The way that Kerry's brow raises, it's clear he isn't sure he believes it. He doesn't think V would lie to him, but he needs more details.]

Innit that a small fortune?

[disrupts]

More than we'd ever seen. Some rich fat cat in Night City was missin' his shipment of oranges that month. Transport's uh... let's just say if security's lax and somethin' happens... buncha nomads who never saw a 'ganic orange in their life ain't gonna pass that up.

[secondconflict]

Whatcha think of 'em?

[disrupts]

Like I'd give up sex for a month just to have more 'ganic fruit in my mouth.

[secondconflict]

Good thing we can have both here...

[disrupts]

Mhmm. Gonna eat it off of you just to prove that point.

[ Though maybe not right now; it's been a long day and all V wants to do is curl up with Kerry and lose consciousness to sleep. ]

[secondconflict]

[Kerry laughs and then settles back into their cuddling.]

Eh, somethin' to do tomorrow.

[disrupts]

Gonna be my fruit bowl tomorrow, Eurodyne.

[ It's such a gonk statement that V laughs, arms shifting to embrace Kerry as soon as he's settled again.

The yawn, when it comes, is wide, lashes fluttering closed as he tries his best to relax into some kind of sleepy state. ]

[secondconflict]

[Kerry chuckles again and lets them both settle down.]

Hm-mm. Right now, tho, your gonna be my pillow.
