tilt - for any ships !

[ TILT ] sender uses two fingers to lift receiver’s chin to look them in the eye

Finn & Ro

Aurora had been avoiding eye contact with Finn ever since what she had mentally started referring to as THE MOMENT. In the scheme of things it was a totally random moment. She and Finn were cuddled on the couch, on Wednesday night watching a movie, Disney's Hercules per her request. Finn was munching on popcorn as she sang along, occasionally smiling down at her and pecking her on the lips when she'd glanced up at him before returning his attention to the movie. And then it hit her right in the middle of I Won't Say I'm In Love. She wanted the rest of her life to be just like this, with Finn. She was in love.

Now she wouldn't say she panicked when she realized. (She did, she just wouldn't say it). But the realization shook her entire world. Yes she had been enjoying her time with Finn and she knew she had feelings for him, but realizing that he was her "never want anyone else" was a heavy thing. And she needed time to process. And she'd struggled to look him in the eye since, afraid her eyes would convey what she hadn't found words for. To his credit, Finn didn't push her although she caught his concerned gaze watching her more often. Finally on day 3 he cracked.

Aurora was sketching on the living room couch when Finn sat down next to her. "Ro," he began quietly and her eyes stayed trained on the page. "Ro, talk to me please?" He implored, using two fingers to lift her chin so she was looking into his eyes. she was immediately lost in his dark orbs, unable to look away. "Talk to me," he repeated softly. "I fucked up," Ro finally admitted, though that didn't explain anything so she forged ahead, elaborating. "I fell in love with you. And I'm sorry because I feel like I broke some unspoken rule between us. But it's the truth. I'm in love with you, Finn. I never want to be with anyone else. Please say something," she whispered as they stared at each other.

[ SWAY ]  sender pulls receiver into a slow dance in the living room / kitchen / bedroom

(I think this was supposed to be sway? If I just missed away on the list please let me know cuz sometimes I miss things right in front of my face lol)

Finn & Ro (because of course)

Aurora had been quiet all day, lost in her thoughts - mind bouncing between the testimony she would be giving in three days time, the story they were telling the neighbors about her trip (girls trip with friends from college), what she needed to pack, and how badly she was going to miss Finn during the whole ordeal. That was the worst part of it. The pair had spent every night over the past six months together and the idea of not seeing him and not going to sleep beside him had her stomach in knots. Noticing her preoccupation, Finn had offered to do dishes after dinner on his own and she'd retreated to their bedroom, putting on some slow music to try and calm down, curled on the foot of the bed toying with her wedding rings.

She was so out of it that she didn't hear Finn come into the room. The next thing she knew he was pulling her to her feet and into his arms, murmuring a soft "dance with me" in her ear. She allowed Finn to guide her arms around his neck as his wrapped around her waist. Aurora laid her head against his chest, aware that there was music playing but only focusing on the beating of his heart, strong, steady, and familiar. Her fingers toyed with the hair at the nape of his neck absentmindedly. Ro wasn't sure how long Finn held her like that, gently moving them back and forth, occasionally humming along, low enough that she felt it in his chest more than she actually heard the sound, but she couldn't deny how much it helped. Even more than if he’d just held her. He always seemed to know exactly what she needed these days. The movement gave her something to focus on. Her mind quieted as her focus zeroed in on Finn in the here and now. Tilting her face upwards she kissed him softly on the lips. "Thank you," she murmured, before tucking her head back into the crook of his neck, content to stay there for as long as she could.

[ story ] finn & ro!

Aurora was practically vibrating with excitement as she let herself back into the house. She couldn't wait to tell Finn what had just happened at book club. Finn was sitting on the couch watching TV and packing some of their books when she bounced into the seat next to him, speaking before he could even greet her. "You will never guess what just happened at book club. Tiffani and Tiffany started fighting. And I know what you're thinking. Did Tiffany Y finally find out about Tiffani I and Rob? And I don't know But that's not what it was. They were fighting over Dennis who they've BOTH been sleeping with and who knocked them BOTH up. And who is about to be single because he and Patricia are getting divorced because she's leaving him for Monica, because he and I quote has given her fewer orgasms in their marriage than Monica did in a night," she rambled at him. "Truly wild, I thought there was going to be bloodshed," she admitted. "And I thought we were supposed to be the naughty neighbors. I can't believe this place is getting interesting just as we're leaving." She slumped against the couch for a moment, shaking her head before she had a realization. "Also," she quickly moved so she was straddling him wrapping her arms around his neck before leaning down for a deep kiss, grinning when she pulled back. "Hi. I love you."

Closed starter for @flwrshops​ 

Aurora couldn't believe how quickly her life had changed. Three weeks ago she had been a normal elementary school teacher. But then she'd been in the wrong place at the wrong time and witnessed a murder. She'd immediately reported to the police and was quickly put in protective custody. When it appeared that protective custody wasn't quite protective enough, she was handed over to the witness protection program. 

Which was how she found herself sitting across from the tall dark haired man who she now needed to pretend was her -

"Husband?" she asked, not bothering to hide the shock and concern. "I assumed I would be placed alone," she continued speaking to the agent, glancing at the other man out of the corner of her eye. He was imposing even while sitting, and more than a little attractive. 

"Normally you would be. But due to security reasons, this is the best option for time being. Now, here is your new identity. Mr. and Mrs. Johnson."
