[It bounces off of his forehead and he laughs.] The whole evening's supposed to be special, dumbass. It's yours.

[parodeity]

...we can still back out? [ as usual he's just...checking ]

[windeity]

We can. But I don't want to. [He gives him a Look.] I've...kind of prepared for this. So. No backing out unless you really want to.

[parodeity]

...did you watch more terrible gay porn. [ it's only half a joke... ]

[windeity]

No. I just bought some stuff. [...he picks up that fallen pterodactyl from where it bounced onto his plate and eats it.]

[parodeity]

This sounds like a shady drug deal suddenly. [ dave props his chin on one hand, trying to conceal a smile. ] ...I'm still sure.

[windeity]

[He does jack shit to hide his own grin.] I am, too. We have all evening and zero interruptions. Plus it's cold and it's a good excuse to warm up.

[...yeah, he's still just joking but also he's Prepared]

[parodeity]

[ dave raises an eyebrow. ] Think you're up to keeping me warm, then? [ but john does seem up to it and that's encouraging. ] I'll have to give you a run for your money.

[windeity]

Just watch me. [He's still flirting, still encouraging this all the way.] I've always been successful so far, haven't I?

[parodeity]

That may have to do with you being my exact physical type. [ thanks dave ]!

[windeity]

Ah, yeah, I always knew you were just in this relationship for my body. Is it bad that I'm okay with that? [He's only okay with it because he knows it's not true.]

[parodeity]

I mean, you can definitely take it as a compliment. [ he stops trying to hide his smile, at least. ] Is my seduction working?

[windeity]

Well yeah. You being you has always worked when it comes to seducing me, I am pretty sure. I can recognize my boyfriend's hot.

[parodeity]

Speaking of things I want to do with you...we've talked about it before, but I still want to write a song together.

[windeity]

I'm always here for that. [Like. Immediately.] Anything we create is going to be really interesting.

[parodeity]

[ his smile softens somehow. ] Yeah? Cool. I don't remember ever writing something together like that, y'know?

[windeity]

We always mixed stuff together but we never did it from scratch. I wonder why...but maybe that's even better. It means it will truly be ours and not something that was from a different universe, right? Got something in mind?

[parodeity]

Maybe because we didn't really live that close. [ dave looks at the food again then stands up. ] Wanna go try?

[windeity]

Even after we got to the new planet though. I don't remember anything about that. [...granted Dave was in a threesome so maybe that's why. He chooses not to say that though and he nods instead.]

Music room's set up for this kind of thing. And besides, it's your birthday. We can do whatever you want.

[parodeity]

Then c'mon. We can have the rest later. [ after whatever, but he holds out a hand to john and raises an eyebrow. ]

[windeity]

[The oven's warming at least and not baking so the pie will be fine. With that said he takes Dave's hand and starts to lead to the music room. Luckily it's not that far from the kitchen.]

Got an idea for a song already?

[parodeity]

A few chords, maybe. Besides, it's like... [ he has no idea how to explain so dave opts not to, shrugging as his thumb brushes absently over john's wrist. ] ...y'know.

[windeity]

....being in sync anyway? [He doesn't really have to think that hard when it comes to what sounds Dave reminds him of and translating it to chords and melodies. Maybe it's the same, or maybe Dave should try to explain anyway.

[parodeity]

...it ain't a bad prelude. [ john isn't wrong, but dave also just feels like seeing john play the piano and listening to something they both create.

it's maybe not the most normal form of foreplay or whatever but at least he copped to it. in a normal speaking tone, even. ]

[windeity]

[He turns just slightly to press a kiss to his cheek.] You could have just said music was a turn-on. I get it.

[Teasing...but he leads him into the music room. The piano's there, along with some other equipment and he's sliding over to the bench to make himself comfortable and leaving Dave some room.]
