They had made another sanctuary within the abandoned, a small house at the outskirts of Xion, untouched by machine nor Naytibas, a small space he had meant to turn into a temporary resting place that was now better furnished with what Elektra would bring and what he could scavenge from the old world. He's sitting on the new rug, [ still clean despite the sand that would slip through each storm ], with various parts laid out before him as he attempted to fix his latest finding, an old record player, worn by time but not beyond saving. Free hands work their way through assembling the old thing, comfortable enough today to do without gloves and roll up his sleeves, a casual display only seen around her during better days that spoke volumes of trust. ❛❛ Ah ! It's working ! ❜❜ he announces as soft music began to play, a faint hint of pride in expression as he watched the record spin. Elektra was beside him, no longer reading at his interruption.
The book now completely discarded as she stands and offers a hand in invitation, Adam blinks, smiling a tad despite his confusion. ❛❛ I don't ... dance. ❜❜ he doesn't even remember how not that he was the partying kind in his old life, they would have to tear him away from his seat if they wanted him to participate in any way. But much to his dismay, Elektra seems persistent, his awkward refusal ignored as she reaches down to take his hand and pull him up to his feet. He groaned at the pull, but made not to attempt to flee. ❛❛ Alright, fine, one dance, that's all. ❜❜
