windeity: (DAVE ♫ the dave of guy)

Yeah, I suppose that's fair. I'm pretty sure after a while Nanna was not that fond of Vic either. Parents. [But whatever, he's following Dave through the house and they disappear and reappear into what's definitely a shared bedroom.

It's bewildering in a way because John's always been an only child (in this lifetime, anyway) so seeing the results of two siblings in one shared space is still something different. He doesn't know much about Dirk beyond what he remembers and what Dave's told him so he enters the room and settles for glancing around.

Two dudes with drastically different interests. The MLP poster gets a slight smile because yeah, he knows where that came from, and his immediate attention goes to the photos. The dead jars don't surprise him either because he's aware his boyfriend's a fucking weirdo that way but here we are.

And music equipment and stuff. It's so...much.

But he turns his head when Dave locks the door and gives him an equally small grin.]


Sooo...childhood bedroom.
windeity: (GAZE ♫ childlike)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-03-08 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[His attention wanders to take everything in, but when Dave speaks again John's a little surprised by the words and his eyes widen slightly.]

...yeah, you did. I didn't know you had something already.
windeity: (WIND ♫ calm and controlled)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-03-08 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't care about perfection in cases like this. [It's almost too-eager how he steps forward to be close to him, immediately picking up the second set of headphones and looping them around his neck. They'll go on when Dave's ready.] Are you ready?
windeity: (DAVE ♫ bouquet of lovely words)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-03-08 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[He follows immediately, headphones on and watching Dave's hands because he's not used to turntables still, and he patiently waits. He doesn't exactly pick up on Dave's mood but he's curious.

Usually he's the one writing music. The reverse is bound to leave him wondering.]
windeity: (CALM ♫ soft glow)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-03-08 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's the same song. He recognizes that on instinct and if Dave catches the movement out of the corner of his eye he'll notice that John's fingers flex almost like he wants to play the matching notes. His hands still and he listens, eyes darting back and forth between the knobs and buttons and Dave's stupid (perfect) hands. Instead of playing notes, his fingers wrap around the cord of his borrowed headphones and he's contemplating and yet...he's pleased.

Part of him wants to move to actually touch things and decides that's probably not a great idea either and maybe it's greedy but he mostly wants to see what Dave does on his own.

But he's quiet the whole time until Dave's finished, memorizing what he's hearing anyway.]
windeity: (GRIN ♫ playful glance)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-03-08 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's a definite good sign. John slowly removes his headphones but he pulls on the cord of Dave's to draw him a little closer.]

I like it. A lot. If you count the instruments and the beats you had at least six separate layers going and the blending...it's really cool. [He sounds calm but his expression is almost a little manic because it was a sound he wants to kind of wrap himself up in permanently.]

windeity: (DAVE ♫ affectionate douche)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-03-08 08:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[Look, there's only like one thing John has a bigger boner for than Dave and it's music, so Dave + Music is pretty much a recipe for self-combusting? He's trying not to be too excited but it's not really working given that he has this big-ass dorky grin suddenly and he immediately loops his arms around Dave's shoulders, headphones or not.]

Yeah? Sweet. [There's also a brief, fleeting kiss to his cheek.] Thanks...[His eyes go back toward the turntables again though.] We're going to have to move this to the new house whenever that is. If I am getting a piano it's only fair.
windeity: (DAVE ♫ here in your arms)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-03-08 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, why not? If we get a place with two bedrooms anyway then we'd have enough space for a music room. Storage and music and cat room. I think it makes sense. [Cool, this is pretty much his favorite position so thanks Dave.] I'm still working on new pieces, too. So it would be cool to do remixes and stuff. Like a thing we do together?

[...] We used to back then, so...it sounds really fun.
windeity: (CALM ♫ a pleasant boy)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-03-08 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I would absolutely do a pop duet with you, too, but I get your point. [Hmm...] You really were worried about a lot back then, weren't you?
windeity: (GAZE ♫ skywards)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-03-08 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I've since been informed that playing your best bro a song you wrote for his birthday, especially that kind of song is pretty gay so I suppose a crush would have been a step in the right direction. [Thanks John. His hands squeeze a little tighter to hold onto him.]

Why do you think they call it a crush anyway?
windeity: (PEEK ♫ over arms)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-03-08 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
First of all, some of us don't gain holiday weight. [Like John for instance. Or even Dave, much to John's chagrin.] But I get it. One of those things that presses in on you without warning.

I'm glad you didn't ignore it when it was out in the open, for the record. But I am sorry I ever made you really worry about how much I liked you. [He's going to continue being sorry apparently.]
windeity: (GRIN ♫ casual streetwear)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-03-08 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm still not sure what "too much" is when the want thing is pretty mutual at this point. But yeah. I know. It's been a while for you.

[He pulls back a little then (still keeping his arms around Dave) and makes the most serious face possible.] Dave Strider. It is definitely okay for you to want me. I completely understand. [...okay. Maybe there's a grin tacked on anyway.]
windeity: (GRIN ♫ cute)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-03-08 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[There's another perplexed look. Hm. Yeah, maybe please talk to your boyfriend, Dave. Someday. But yeah he doesn't feel like going back either so instead it's just back to teasing Dave.]

You were sleeping in my bed. I am not sure how much hiding we were doing at the end anyway now that I think about it. But I get it. I was pretty sure it was too good to be possible, too. On top of everything else. [A sexuality crisis, other-life crisis, etc.]
