While Neil cleans up, Alex slips into loose pants, then hops back into bed to lean back against the headboard. When Neil comes back, he returns to cuddle against Alex, and Alex is starting to think that he's the luckiest motherfucker this side of the continent.

He nearly misses the question.

"I want you to tell me each one, and your thoughts and opinions on each."

Smile, smile.

[goodfight]

A verbal essay. What joyous fun. Neil manages to grin back, mind working through the men he talked to and the content they discussed.

"Might as well start with Arcade since I jumped him first," he says. "Once he heard my actual request and got some tequila in him, the conversation steered to handjobs. Thought it was going to straightforward and boring as hell, but it turned out to be pretty informative."

Of course, there was the other suggestion of switching roles, but Neil will have to get back to that later. Right now-- "Apparently, interesting ones involve 'wetness and texture.' Different kinds of makeshift lubricant."

[doubletap]

"Please never say you jumped Arcade again, or I'll have to beat up my friend," he says dryly.

The topic is straightforward enough. "Well, you got to see the benefits of handjobs ten minutes ago. Your take?"

[goodfight]

Neil laughs. "Ex-nay on inadvertent innuendo, got it," he returns lightly. "As far as the interesting handjobs go, it's entirely dependent on what's used. Instamash--"

He cannot help the disgusted face. "--with some water covers the wetness and texture requirement. Ant nectar of all types can be applied dermally without the reduced cognitive and interpersonal functions, resulting in a variety of effects. Regular ant nectar causes tingly sensations while that of a fire ant 'burns in a good way.' Whatever the hell that means.

"Arcade also mentioned ant queen nectar is an aphrodisiac and should only be used if we've got, uh, time on our hands." Great, he manages to throw in a pun in there. "Like lots of time."

[doubletap]

"...So basically," he drawls out. "You're making me need to go collect ant nectar of all kinds, because, yes, interested, thank you, Arcade.

"Besides," he adds, batting his lashes. "Tingly reminds me of being inside of you."

[goodfight]

There's a brief pause as Neil processes that statement. Then he grins. Sheepishly.

"You know, I thought of that exact thing when he said that," Neil states, not turning bright red at all.

[doubletap]

Alex places a hand across Neil's chest, holding there, skin against skin. "...See," he says, quietly, deeply. "We're in the same place."

[goodfight]

It's enough. Affecting enough for Neil to reach and close his hand over Alex's. "Yeah," he murmurs. "We are."

He lets it stay for a moment, a minute, before continuing. "You'll probably be pleased that I have some fire ant and ant queen nectar from my stash. They're about six-years-old, though, so I dunno if you wanna risk them."

[doubletap]

Alex laughs out loud, then kisses the top of Neil's head. "I love that you're immediately up for this."

[goodfight]

"Hey, I'm committed to trying each and every suggestion," Neil retorts with a smile. "Though some might be easier than others."

Which brings him to the final suggestion. "You ever heard of Jake Juice, Alex?"

[doubletap]

"God damn," he answers. "That means I'm in for a lot of new sex, huh? It's like my birthday's catching up with me."

To the second: "Yeah, it's a pre war special run. Only a few hundred bottles. The 38's got a few."

[goodfight]

Birthday. Birthdays remind the Lone Wanderer of a payment due, and he jumps on the opportunity with all the subtlety afforded to him. "You know," he starts, head tipping in curiosity, "I don't think I ever asked about your birthday. When is it?" Does Alex remember?

As for Jake Juice... "It's Arcade's personal recommendation. Said it was a little 'intense.'" Which everyone's very sure he knows from experience.

[doubletap]

"...Aka, if only the 38 has the remaining bottles, Arcade's been handy with himself as of late." God he needs to get that man laid.

As for the birthday, Alex narrows his eyes in mock suspicion. "Why? You've already missed one of them~"

[goodfight]

"He's not lacking in prospects, though," Neil comments as an aside. "During our trip, Jimmy propositioned him. Richards actually succeeded in flirting with him." The latter proving to be quite the sight to see.

His expression instantly drops at the mention of missing a birthday, and Neil reaches to scratch the back of his head. "Man, I suck. You found out my birthday. The least I could have done was ask about yours."

[doubletap]

"I think I'd approve of Richards. He'd humble our Dr. Gannon, at the least."

...And give him a lot of different kinks to try, if Alex's foresight on that was in any way right. Regardless--

"Mmm? You suck? Is that my present if I tell you~?"

[goodfight]

Richards would certainly humble the Followers doctor. Hell, he kinda already did that yesterday.

But Alex mentions sucking off, and it's worth addressing. Before, Neil might find reason to joke without knowing the context; however, here, he can speak with some confidence. "Well, that's on the list," he says, voice entirely matter-of-fact. "Jimmy covered the basics and then some so I could try it out on you whenever you like."

[doubletap]

"...Well, shit," he gives, cock hardening noticeably. Alex's boyfriend learned the theory of dick sucking from a prostitute. That just makes the mind happy, doesn't it?

[goodfight]

"Hm." Without warning, Neil reaches down to cup Alex's groin, to feel the hardness for himself. "So Arcade was right. Guys really do like oral."

Why, yes, he was taking the doctor's advice on possibly blowing Alex himself.

[doubletap]

Alex just had Neil come for him in under a half hour ago, and they've been talking about sex off and on for the past hour. Please forgive him if he lacks all self control, and instead gives out a low noise at the touch. The touch which immediately makes him harden the rest of the way, pushing upward against his pants.

"...You're saying... you wouldn't?" he asks, trying to continue the conversation.

[goodfight]

The low sound pleases Neil, who continues applying pressure with no intention to stop.

Instead, he answers the question. "Don't get me wrong," he says. "I'll try it myself, but the whole teeth on skin bit doesn't sound very appealing."

[doubletap]

Another low moan escapes him, but he has no reason--at all--to stop any kind of affection from Neil.

"...Not...teeth on skin," he replies, closing his eyes. "Lips...cover teeth."

[goodfight]

"Yeah," Neil gives, smiling brightly. For no reason at all, of course. "I know the proper method. I just end up thinking about teeth and the many ways that it can fuck up."

His expression lessens somewhat. His grip does not. "Plus it's nicer when you're looking at me as opposed to my crotch."

[doubletap]

The last makes his eyes blink open, locking onto Neil as he wants. Alex looks at him, slightly flushed, pupils larger, and watches him.

"...I'm looking at you now."

[goodfight]

The words touch something within him. How Alex looks at him has Neil leaning upward to press his lips to the other's, eyes closing in affect. His hand lightens up to drag fingertips across the cloth of Alex's pants, following the shaft to the tip.

[doubletap]

Neil leans to kiss him, and Alex melts into it, letting him control the pace. Neil's hand moves and Alex only makes small sounds into his mouth.

They're having a conversation. This is only a digression.
