[Okay, yeah, he's a little addicted to this. Just one more kiss, really.]

Maybe I'll get rid of the knives. Menace people with watercolours. Worked so far.

[hardlydead]

C'mon now, that's too far.

[outerfringe]

Yeah, probably.

[Jeff shifts slightly, bumps his face against David's temple.]

You gonna show me around Manchester?

[hardlydead]

[ oh, that's nice. david tilts his head a little toward jeff. ]

Can do. Bunch of galleries for you to go stare at paintings if you want.

[outerfringe]

You gonna come with me?

[Galleries, damn. It's been a minute.]

[hardlydead]

Can't just bring your own masterpiece to the gallery.

[ he's so hilarious. ]

[outerfringe]

You are pretty distracting.

[He'll just agree.]

[hardlydead]

It's a skill.

[ he tilts his head to kiss jeff's neck. ]

I'll come with you. You can tell me what you see.

[ wouldn't that be nice. ]

[outerfringe]

[Jeff tilts his head slightly, swallowing under the attention.]

You can't look for yourself?

[hardlydead]

I'm not an artist, Jeff.

[ the way he rolls his eyes is practically audible. ]

Like, yeah it's fuckin' blue or whatever. That's nice?

[outerfringe]

Oh my god. [He's laughing now, a quiet rumble of it.] Nevermind what I said before, you're an ass.

[hardlydead]

[ he kisses jeff's neck again, grinning to himself against his skin. ]

Told you.

[outerfringe]

[He makes a slightly put upon noise, hand settling at David's waist.]

Okay, museums are out. How's the music scene?

[hardlydead]

S'good. Varied.

[ he's now basically alternating between words and kisses. ]

Big history too. Think you'd like it.

[outerfringe]

[It's unfair because it's extremely distracting.]

Yeah? What do you think I like?

[Curious, not accusatory.]

[hardlydead]

Hm.

[ good question, guess he's just gonna have to do some more kissing while he thinks about an answer. ]

Hole in the wall kinda venues? Music way too fuckin' loud for the space. Kinda place that would've stunk of cigarettes and sweat twenty years ago.

[outerfringe]

Yeah. Alright, got me there.

[And even if David hadn't, he's clearly just sort of talking to extend this facade of conversation here while he gets some affectionate attention here.]

You show me some good concerts. I'll give you a tour of the dog parks.

[hardlydead]

[ his shoulders shake with silent laughter but honestly he'd love that. ]

Sounds perfect.

[outerfringe]

[Well.

Fuck.

Obviously he'd wanted to escape this shit before, but it's suddenly so much more personal than it's ever been. He's made out with this guy like one and a half times - stupid.

Jeff's voice drops, quiet.]

Holding you to it.

[hardlydead]

[ he lifts his head so he can look at jeff, eyes scanning his face as if he'll find some sign he's joking or lying or something. but obviously he's not. ]

Good.

[ david smiles after a moments pause, pointedly not giving up any mental real estate to the impossibility of it all. ]

[outerfringe]

[Jeff's expression is as quietly serious as it usually is.]

God, we're- weird.

[hardlydead]

Speak for yourself.

[ super normal guy over here how dare you. ]

[outerfringe]

Whatever. You know I'm right.

[hardlydead]

[ okay, okay. he'll be serious. ]

Why's that?

[outerfringe]

[Jeff isn't. :')]

Dog park's just a weird date.
