He'll accept it. Accept it but--

Again he leans to brush his head against Neil's. "...I'm yours. Don't forget that."

[goodfight]

There, again, is contact. Neil reaches to press his hand against the man's cheek.

"I won't. You're mine, after all."

[doubletap]

He smiles there, against Neil's hand. Nuzzles once, then slowly straightens again.

"Well, then, the next thing to return to would be... What do you think about all of the asexual stuff? Do you think it fully applies to you? Anything different or not fitting? How do you feel about it?"

[goodfight]

Neil honestly considers his lover's questions, mulling over each. In the end, he sighs, appearing far more conflicted than prior. "The way Arcade explained being an asexual was fucking spot on," he admits. "If that's the general consensus, then yeah, I'm willing to agree I am one, but honestly, I feel like I need more information."

Something shifts in his expression, edging the unknown. "If true, though, that would lay more than a few adolescent concerns to rest."

[doubletap]

"Well, that sounds like the start of a new quest," he comments, smiling slightly. "Though I have to ask about the concerns you mentioned."

[goodfight]

At the prospect of a new quest without his preferred compensation, Neil groans. "It's like I can't escape the weirdo rep," he whines whilst shifting awkwardly in Alex's arms. Talking about adolescence always makes the Lone Wanderer feel retarded as shit.

"Tried to jerk off once." A great start to a great series of events. "Just out of curiosity. Felt no different than rubbing my arm. Pin-ups were currency for pent-up boys in a vault, but I never got anything out of them. Funny story, though. Dad caught me with one when I was thirteen, and he freaked the fuck out. Started going off about boys and girls--"

"Boys and girls have different parts, Right? Now listen closely."

"--and I stood there with my mouth shut, nodding along, trying very hard not to let it slip that I already read up on the horizontal tango five years ago."

[doubletap]

Please excuse Alex while his eyes slightly glaze. And while his lower body wakes up a bit, which is something unfortunate, perhaps, for the person in his lap.

"...Interested in jerking off for me?"

[goodfight]

The sudden request has Neil remembering Old Ben from dilapidated Freeside and his words regarding "showing off" in front of an interested party. This point is emphasized when Neil feels something happy against his thighs.

"Depends," he says lightly. "What would you give me?" Because jerking off itself is going to do jack shit for Neil.

[doubletap]

Giving Neil something is basically what Alex wants to do, but instead of replying, the man smiles quietly.

Alex leans in to nuzzle, then kisses along Neil's jaw to his mouth. He kisses him slowly, deliberately; something overwhelmingly forceful for all its gentleness. Something to make one remember just how close they are. How close two people can be.

[goodfight]

So. Apparently, Alex wishes to give Neil the gift of make-outs, and it's so sad how well that manages to work. The younger man more or less melts against the onslaught of delicate kissing, mouth murmuring more sounds than he intended to make.

[doubletap]

Neil relaxes in his arms, the small sounds making him harder even as he smiles against Neil's lips. "...So I have to give you things now?" he asks in a murmur. "I'm not good enough for you anymore?"

[goodfight]

The existence known as the Lone Wanderer whines in protest, all thanks to the power of freaking seduction. "I was joking," he adds. "You don't have to give me anything."

[doubletap]

Alex's fingers travel along Neil's inner thigh, inching upward and thoroughly distracted. He slips his head down to kiss along Neil's neck. "...So you'll do that for me?"

[goodfight]

Neil shivers at the wandering hand, the traversing lips, and that question. Somehow, it slowly becomes almost too much, enough for him to actually consider the prospect. "If you really," he starts, "really want."

[doubletap]

Alex shifts his hips, enough for bare skin to slide against bare skin, an obvious show of want.

"Wanting you was never in question."

[goodfight]

...And this contact reminds him of Rivas. Reminds him of another man's blatant interest and the good Neil is keeping to himself. It is this that has him leaning forward, head resting against Alex's chest.

"Wanting me brings trouble," he chastises. "Make me full of myself."

[doubletap]

...Alex has been good. Kind and nice and patient. Understanding and considerate. But that response... That line needs the pun attached.

Alex grins fully. "I'd rather have you full of me instead."

[goodfight]

The pun has Neil in stitches, chortling merrily as his body shakes from the effort. Sure, it's pretty bad, but it is just that bad enough to entertain a guy like him. "Gosh," he manages upon stabilizing. "I had to walk right into that one."

[doubletap]

The laughter balances him. The sound of it calms him immensely, in a way he didn't know he needs. When Neil responds, Alex nuzzles him closely. "You always do."

[goodfight]

"I set them up," Neil answers, gesturing dramatically with a free hand, "and you knock 'em down. Great teamwork."

Enough to loosen some of the tension and Neil's tongue. "Old Ben talked briefly about that, you know," he continues on their previous topic. "Going at it in front of your guy being one kind of foreplay."

[doubletap]

...Alex chokes on his air, making a strangled sound.

He presses his head into Neil's shoulder.

[goodfight]

The reaction has Neil mildly worried, and he lifts his head up to glance over at Alex.

"You, uh, okay?"

[doubletap]

"...I think I tried to forget that you actually went through with all of that," he mutters lightly. "Now I'll have to decide if I never have to talk to these men again after this."

He laughs, to show he's (mostly) joking.

[goodfight]

Alex is joking (probably). However.

"Why'd you give me that quest in the first place if you weren't serious 'bout it?" questions Neil.

[doubletap]

Alex leans back again, pulling Neil against him. "Let's see... It's like when, in that vault, I mentioned you would never be likely to 'give it.' Some stuff just doesn't seem like you'll do.

"But I guess you showed me on this one." He laughs again, more real this time.
