[windeity]

Yeah. I knew what you meant. [He's finishing his soup at least before continuing.] We have been together for eleven months. If I wasn't happy, I would think we'd talk about it but I am. I'm happy with you and I'm happy with us and the life we've been making for ourselves.

[parodeity]

So you don't have anything else you wanna do or anything? [ not like dave can think of much himself.

or he can, always, but it's never anything more than a progression of everything they are. ]

[windeity]

...baby, why don't you just tell me what exactly you're thinking about and I'll say yes or no. [Dave seriously what are you doing.]

[parodeity]

Okay, now you're making it sound like I'm up to something. [ which is fair ]

[windeity]

Am I wrong?

[parodeity]

It would totally serve you right if I said yes. [ ...so, no. ]

[windeity]

[He lifts an eyebrow again. Dave???] Probably. But you're not saying yes, so what is it?

[parodeity]

Nothing you wouldn't say yes to?

[windeity]

All the more reason you should tell me what it is then.

[parodeity]

You're terrible, but I still wanna sleep with you.

[windeity]

As long as you don't want to sleep with me because I am terrible.

[parodeity]

I want to have sex with you because I love you and it's fun, sadly.

[windeity]

"Sadly." [Sorry now he's just kind of laughing.] Way to make a guy feel special. But for what it's worth I like it for the same reason. Also your expressions are cute.

[Hot, actually, but he's purposefully using cute to get a rise out of him.]

[parodeity]

Fuck you, I'm hot. [ john knows his buttons. ] And you are special. I want to do things with you I haven't with anyone else.

[windeity]

[There's a grin. Yes, he knows Dave's hot. So what. But he's also tilting his head back to look at the stars below them and also just stretching himself out.]

I mean...that has pretty much been me in our whole relationship. I can't complain about that. Do I get a hint what those things are, or am I going in blind?

[parodeity]

You mean besides marriage and sex? [ a snort. ] We kinda hit uncharted territory for me on the latter. You, too.

[windeity]

So what you're saying is we're both going at it blind even if there's stuff we both want to try. Does that scare you?

[parodeity]

No. Like...it did at first in the way where we were both scared? Of fucking up. But like - I don't know, it's not...scary, exactly, even if nerves still exist. It's awkward sometimes and funny others and maybe sometimes it is a little scary, but it's...you know, enjoyable. Does that make sense?

[windeity]

...yeah. Yeah, I think so. The journey is a lot easier to make together than us just stressing ourselves out. [Close enough.] It's a lot less worrying about scaring the other person off or thinking the other person would think we're weird or whatever.

[parodeity]

Anyway, I already got past the scariest part of telling you I want to have sex, so. Hey-o. [ well actually at the time he specified handjobs or something and not sex but whatever. ] You know, it's a good thing neither of us is scared of heights.

[windeity]

You're at least getting better about saying the word sex so I can give you some credit. [He grins even as he looks below again.] I feel like being afraid of heights would contradict being able to fly. But I think you like it up here just as much as I do.

[parodeity]

I've always liked heights. And as to the rest... [ shut up????? ] Shut up. And also I figured if I want to ask you for shit it should be shit I can say.

[windeity]

Your place back then was really high up so I don't doubt it. [There's a nod.] I think that's a pretty good policy to follow, too. We're both adults, dude. Gotta use our words and stuff.

[parodeity]

You're a grave robber come the third of december, obviously. A teenager, young and innocent. [ he's joking. ] You know I do, though, right? Want to have sex with you. Not this second but like.

[windeity]

[He makes a face.] I'm not that innocent, thanks. [He knows Dave's just joking though.]

But yeah, I know. We've already done it a couple of times. [John's maybe not quite getting the point here.]
