Did you or did you not lie about bein' turned on?

[ no that's accurate because dave wants to know if he read john staring at him and getting a little flushed and being way too obliging wrong or what. he misses obvious affection shit from people sometimes but he's usually not terrible at reading body language and reactions when he's paying attention.

he kind of wants to know if he fucked up a read or if john's just being impossible. dave's left hand snaps out to grip john's chin, firm but easy enough to shove off. ]

...don't lie.

[windeity]

[There's an uncomfortable pause. He doesn't quite meet Dave's eyes at first, but as soon as Dave grabs his chin he turns his gaze back to him.

It's embarrassing, honestly, but at the same time...they probably have to talk about this eventually? Maybe.]

Like I said. It's attractive. [So yeah, it's a turn-on, and he's not bothering to push Dave's hand back yet either.]

[parodeity]

Okay, so stop bein' an asshole and give me my prize??

[ just call him hot :/

:/ :/ :/ ]

[windeity]

[...haha okay, what if he sits up taller and slams his mouth into Dave's instead for a prize?

(He'll call him hot soon enough but whatever.)]

[parodeity]

[ THIS IS NOT WHAT HE ASKED FOR!!!!!!

like he doesn't immediately shove john off although john's technically breaking one of dave's personal unspoken rules of Do Not Make Out On The Bed. or maybe he's not by a technicality? only dave is still on the bed. sliding off it and onto john solves that for a minute so. don't topple over, egbert. ]

[windeity]

[He's doing his best to catch him and a lapful of Strider wasn't on the agenda but here they are. They're both on the floor and he flexes a little so he doesn't topple, holding on and breaking the kiss not long after before he just...kind of...starts laughing into Dave's shoulder.

Okay.]

[parodeity]

You completely fuckin' suck at following directions.

[ OKAY is right ]

[windeity]

[There's a grin.]

That's okay, it doesn't change the fact that you're really hot when you take charge.

[parodeity]

Thank you. [ that was so much effort to get john to call him hot. jfc. ] Although obviously I am of course hot anyway.

[ why does he bother talking himself up when he never really buys it ]

Can't praise you and call you good if you do whatever the fuck, though. I do not think you get the concept of being bossed around?

[windeity]

[There's that awkward laugh again.]

Um. I think I get it a lot better than you think I do. You're the one with the sideways requests sometimes.

[It took that long because Dave took that long to make it clear it's what he wanted, maybe.]

[parodeity]

Nope. I definitely still never gave you permission to touch me.

[ he also never told john to wait for it but ]

[windeity]

You're the one who fell on me! [Rude?]

[parodeity]

After you kissed me without me sayin' it was chill? If this were an actual thing I think punishment would be involved or whatever.

[ this is a dumb conversation. ]

[windeity]

[There's another pause.]

Like you would even know how to punish me. [Is...that...a challenge??]

[parodeity]

I wouldn't need to know how. [ mildly. ] I'd just need to do whatever the fuck I wanted to you and you'd have to take it.

[ bring dave, "whatever i wanted" is probably not as dire as it sounds. ]

[windeity]

[A light huff.] And you called me kinky. [He doesn't touch him, but he does stick his tongue out.] You know you are still in my lap, right?

[parodeity]

So? You complaining? [ also: ] For the record you're actually easy as fuck to punish, I think, it's just that I'd get basically nothing out of it and you wouldn't like it.

[windeity]

No, that is also pretty hot. [May as well continue while he's on a roll. But there's also a little pout.] I don't want to know how easy it would be, but thank you. I appreciate the thoughtfulness.

[parodeity]

I doubt you'll ever make me mad enough to find out. [ but he's giving john a weirdly speculative look. ]

[windeity]

I would hope not. Or at least if I did we could talk about it instead. [Dave's giving him a Look and he doesn't know how to read it especially without the shades, so he settles for a semi-charming smile? Hi Dave.]

[parodeity]

Two ideas. A punishment I'll enjoy...or one I think you will.

[windeity]

Can a punishment be enjoyable? [His pulse picks up a little and his fingers nervously drum on Dave's leg, but otherwise he's fine. Totally.]

[parodeity]

Well, you'd probably mind it eventually. The second one, I mean. You're touching again.

[ also he shoves john back to get him to lie down, helpfully, even though he doesn't intend to himself? ]

[windeity]

[A definite pout.]

Are you really that opposed to me touching you? [But he lays back...on the floor. So Dave's just going to sit up on him?]

[parodeity]

Never. But sometimes patience is a virtue. [ yep. but he leans forward, bracing himself with a hand to either side of john, and...

does nothing. ]

Which punishment? Or both. Decisions, decisions.
