Alec: All right, finally back with the new bed. Alec: This'll go by quick, and then I can surprise Kami when she gets back from PT. Alec: And I'm a grown man, and able to put together a simple IKEA bed with no issues. Alec: Okay, what do the instructions say...two people? Bah. I don't need help putting this together. I've got this in the bag. [One temptation to the gods of dramatic irony later...] Alec: How? HOW?! I can formulate a meticulous plan in my sleep, I can track someone's magical signature across the planet backwards, in the dark, with my eyes closed, and I can kick the ass of a monster three times my size before I've had my coffee, so how does Swedish flat-pack furniture defeat me? Kami: Hey, babe, I'm back-- Kami: ... Alec: *sobbing on the ground in frustration* Kami: What are you doing? Alec: I'm certainly not trying and failing to put together an IKEA bed! Kami: Uh-huh. What's that, then? Alec: Modern art? Kami: *snickers* Okay, tough guy. How about you accept some help from an actual engineer? [One actual competent construction job later...] Kami: See? Wasn't so bad, was it? Alec: Only because you're a genius. Kami: Oh, stop. But go on. Alec: Anyway, I wanted to surprise you, so now you don't have to deal with the loft bed when you're having trouble with your legs. How was PT? Kami: Went great, babe, thanks for asking. I feel way better than usual. So...you wanna try out the bed? Alec: You don't have to ask me twice. Maestro! Fade to black, please! ---- Yeah, time to leave the happy couple alone before there's a TOS violation. I do love this bed for them, it holds several MSDs at once without needing to stack 'em up like firewood. Not that they're very happy when it ends up with more than just the two of them, lol.
They're very silly, and of course Alec thinks he can do everything by himself. Lucky for him he's into women who are smarter than him.
