What? You're adorable. I had no idea for so long.

[hardlydead]

[ ... maybe if he leans into it jeff will stop ]

You know what, yeah I am. I'm fucking lovely.

[outerfringe]

[Optimist.]

You are. I'm glad you let me see it. :)

[hardlydead]

[ shit. what now. ]

Changed my mind, I'm gonna throw you in the campfire.

[outerfringe]

Love to see you try.

[hardlydead]

I've thrown bigger men than you around.

[outerfringe]

I'm even sturdier than I look, you know.

[hardlydead]

We'll see about that.

[outerfringe]

I'm not feeding you bread when you throw your back out.

[hardlydead]

Alright Johansen, where are you?

[outerfringe]

About ten feet from where I woke up.

[hardlydead]

[ david doesn't reply. he's assuming where jeff woke up is where david left him, so maybe five minutes later here he is. walking over and looking serious about it too. ]

[outerfringe]

[Jeff hasn't moved far, but he has, apparently, found his Christmas sweater. He's stretched out in a sitting position, phone in his lap.]

Keep five feet away, King.

[hardlydead]

[ he very deliberately takes a large step forward. ]

Why?

[ he has important lifting to do! ]

[outerfringe]

Still too hungover.

[Maybe if he shoots an extra pitiful look David's way...]

[hardlydead]

[ there's a definite sense of ugh to the way david's shoulders sag, but it's probably for the best if he doesn't try and throw jeff into the campfire. he sighs and walks the rest of the way over and puts himself on the ground next to jeff, sits first and then lays on his back. ]

C'mere.

[ he nudges jeff's leg with the back of his hand. ]

[outerfringe]

[Jeff rolls enough to face David, groaning in a very sorry-for-himself way as he settles on his side.]

Dunno. Still a little suspicious.

[hardlydead]

[ david raises an eyebrow. ]

First I'm sweet and adorable, now you don't trust me?

[outerfringe]

Lotta things are cute and dangerous. [A quiet grumbling.
] How you feel about rubbing my head?

[hardlydead]

[ he snorts and shakes his head, but at the question he raises a hand to pat his own shoulder. perfect place for jeff to put his head down. ]

Fair enough. I know I wouldn't say I'm not dangerous.

[ the perfect way to sweet talk a guy into cuddling up right ]

[outerfringe]

[Jeff pauses just long enough to pull loose his messy ponytail, before shifting in to sort of tuck his head against David's shoulder. It feels a bit strange, but he can't deny that it's nice.]

Still trying to figure out if you're Bambi or the rabbit.

[hardlydead]

[ immediately david wraps one arm loosely around jeff and brings the other up to comb his fingers through his hair, paying special attention close to his scalp. though he pauses briefly and lets out a soft, quiet laugh. ]

Why do I have to be either of 'em?

[outerfringe]

[Oh, yeah, this is nice, down to the rumble of David's laugh beneath him.]

I can't be the only woodland Disney creature. Your arm's gonna fall asleep.

[hardlydead]

[ he shrugs, his arm falling asleep is a risk he was well aware of when he made the offer. ]

Yeah you can. You're unique.

[outerfringe]

[His eyes are closed. Jeff definitely isn't about to fall asleep, but he is deeply comfortable.]

Not even the only artist here.
