Dark blue.

( they're honestly both good and he'd like to see her wearing both of them but the dark blue one has caught his eye. )

That one.

[manipulative]

[ katherine smiles and unceremoniously drops the red back into the drawer. ]

Good.

[ she fishes for the blue's pair of panties, and once she has it, she slams the drawer closed. cocking her head to the side expectantly, she clears her throat. ]

Go sit on the bed. I don't need your help with this part.

[prescind]

( stefan laughs because he wanted to help her but of course, he doesn't mind watching either. so, he steps away from her and sits on the bed. )

I like to help you, though.

( he thinks he's very good at it. )

[manipulative]

Your definition of help and what I need help with are two very different things, Stefan.

[ she smiles at him. once she's satisfied that he's sitting on the bed, she does slip into her lingerie. she did, after all, tell him she needed help picking. katherine is nothing if not a truth-teller. ]

Although, I do appreciate it, of course.

[prescind]

Of course.

( even if he doesn't get to help, he does allow himself to enjoy watching her change and the smile on his face probably says that. )

I was right, it's a very good color on you.

[manipulative]

[ katherine preens. now dressed in her lingerie, she plants her hands on her hips and stands a little taller. she may push her chest out just a little. ]

Everything looks good on me.

[ typical katherine pierce.

but she smiles genuinely. ] Thank you. I think I'll wear this to go get the letters from the mailbox. [ she makes a point to take a big step to go do just that. ]

[prescind]

Are you trying to make me jealous? Possessive?

( he doesn't really want her to go outside in something like that because it'll definitely draw some attention but he doesn't react just yet. )

You want me to threaten everyone in our neighborhood? Rip their eyes out so they can't look?

[manipulative]

[ katherine stares at him and nods. ]

Yes.

[ that's exactly what she wants. katherine doesn't feel like playing to the contrary. sometimes being direct earns her the fluster she enjoys so much. ]

I do want that. [ she purses her lips and waves her hand. ] Do you think you could do that soon?

[prescind]

No.

( he laughs and then shakes his head. he would do it but not without good reason. )

I think me going out there and just ripping out eyeballs would kind of get me into trouble.

[manipulative]

[ she rolls her eyes. impatiently, she adds, ] And I would bail you out.

[ quickly, too! even if she had to flirt with someone, she'd do it to bail him out. ]

Come on, Stefan. [ she pouts. ] Don't you want to rip out some eyeballs for me?

[prescind]

Not if there isn't a good reason, no.

( he shrugs and smiles at her. )

Hopefully you can forgive me for that.

[manipulative]

[ she pouts and sighs sadly… and long. ]

I suppose…

[ her wanting him to rip eyeballs out should be a good reason… but perhaps he has a point. when there comes a time when he needs to do that—and there will be—she doesn't want to have already experienced it half-assed. ]

So, since your eyeballs are intact… [ she gestures at herself in her lingerie. she smiles. ] Why aren't you putting them to good use?

[prescind]

Do you think I haven't been looking this entire time?

( because he has. he smiles at her, a smirk crossing his face. )

So, I'm using my eyeballs for exactly what they're there for. I'm appreciating you.

[manipulative]

[ scrunching up her nose, she shakes her head. ]

So, you're appreciating me from a distance while you're still able to have coherent thoughts? [ she presses her lips together in a line and shakes her head once more. ] That sounds awfully wrong, doesn't it?
