commie_island [Cuba's been home most of the day, reading the paper and trying to forget about the fact that he now had to deal with Spain here.
Oh he'd gone out this morning to buy some flowes for Leliana. But that was about it.
Right now he's in the living room, either reading the sports section, or glancing at the Cuban flag on the wall. Or a bit of both...]

Date: 2011-02-15 02:04 am (UTC)Valentine's Day is Leliana's new favorite holiday.
Cuba is the closest thing she has to a lover in Mayfield (which is not at all a bad thing--she very much likes her not!husband), so she has decided come hell or high water that they are celebrating. She purchases some wine and the necessary ingredients for a Nice Dinner. She would have also bought him those cigars that he likes except she doesn't know which cigars he actually likes and is pretty sure she can't buy them in an American town even if she did.
So, she's going to suggest ice cream after dinner. Who cares if it's frigid outside--it's a holiday.
Besides, they go half the time, anyway.She's just getting in when she finds him in the living room.] Hello, Cuba! Happy Valentine's Day!

[He then realizes what she said and he grins.]
Oh yeah. Happy Valentines Day.

How does dinner and ice cream sound to you?
no subject
Date: 2011-02-15 02:22 am (UTC)That sounds great....so long as we don't go to that French place again.
[Cardboard is not fun to eat.]

Date: 2011-02-15 02:25 am (UTC)I will be making dinner.

Date: 2011-02-15 02:26 am (UTC)You sure? It is supposed to be a holiday after all.

Date: 2011-02-15 02:36 am (UTC)That reminds me. I got you something.
[And he'll just be a moment but he comes back into the room with a bouquet of pink and purple roses]
Happy Valentines day.

Date: 2011-02-15 04:39 am (UTC)She gives him a hug.] They're beautiful! Thank you so much!
no subject
Date: 2011-02-15 04:43 am (UTC)I'm glad you like them.
no subject
Date: 2011-02-15 12:25 pm (UTC)[And she's off to go put them in some water. You're such a great not!husband, Cuba.]

Date: 2011-02-16 02:51 am (UTC)[He glances over at the wall again.]
....Oh yeah. I need to talk to you about something too.

Date: 2011-02-16 04:13 am (UTC)Spain's here now.
no subject
Date: 2011-02-16 04:15 am (UTC)He is? When did he arrive?
no subject
Date: 2011-02-16 04:16 am (UTC)[He sighs...]
And you know how people can be taken from different times and all that...?
no subject
Date: 2011-02-16 04:31 am (UTC)When is he from? Not the same time as you, if you're leading with that question.
no subject
Date: 2011-02-16 04:33 am (UTC)He's from the start of the war we had. Well the war he had with America....
He thinks I'm a just a rebelling colony.
no subject
Date: 2011-02-16 04:39 am (UTC)[That must be weird for him.]
Is there anything I can do on your behalf?
no subject
Date: 2011-02-16 04:46 am (UTC)For the most part I think we might have gotten some things sorted out. ...Told him I wasn't going to leave him..
Besides my sisters would kill me if I let anything too terrible happen to him.

Date: 2011-02-16 04:49 am (UTC)[She doesn't comment on the lie. She understands that keeping things less honest is sometimes better.]
no subject
Date: 2011-02-16 04:57 am (UTC)...All Papa does is meddle in lives...
[And no he did not call Spain papa, you misheard him.]
no subject
Date: 2011-02-16 05:04 am (UTC)We'll have to learn how to hide when he comes over, then.
[Is she teasing? Possibly.]
no subject
Date: 2011-02-16 05:10 am (UTC)That's a lot easier said then done. Believe me I know.
But yeah...he'll probably be dropping over now and then.

Date: 2011-02-19 03:40 pm (UTC)So what sort of holidays did you have at home?
no subject
Date: 2011-02-23 07:33 pm (UTC)There are many religious holidays, too, although for most people they are celebrated in ways that are indistinguishable from the more secular ones. There is always music and dancing and, for the upper classes, lavish parties and silly games. And, of course, we celebrate is the anniversary of the birth and of the death of the lady Andraste. The former is a grand celebration of life and joy, moreso than the average holiday. The latter is much more... somber. Perhaps the most somber of days we remember.

Date: 2011-02-23 07:36 pm (UTC)No, I don't think you have told me about her.
