[Look. You take what you can get here when it comes to indulging your nerd hobbies. Jeff hesitates, before twisting to close the distance between them again. He catches the side of David's face, kissing him soundly, before he leans back and resumes the conversation.]
[ he's a little giddy with the affection, couldn't stop smiling if he tried, and he ducks his head to try to hide just how true that is with the way his smile widens at that kiss. ]
[ and waves a hand dismissively at jeff's concerns. ]
[ david has plenty to be embarrassed about, but dumb, drunk conversations are only to be appreciated. even if the topic is... stealing feathers from a vulture to make art supplies? ]
[ anyway. ]
[ he lifts his head to give jeff a confused look. it does get his hackles up a little, but david pushes past that. ]
Yeah. Me, either. Well - loving dogs aside, I guess.
[Jeff had short relationships. None that lasted extraordinarily long, but he'd dated enough people to know he's drawn mostly to kindness, to a capacity for empathy more than any other specific traits.]
[ that one's a joke just for himself and he clearly finds it funny judging by the look on his face, but he's done talking about the chance they might not be into this when they sober up and leans toward jeff for another kiss. that seems like a much better use of his mouth to him. ]
[It's at this point Jeff will mostly give up on the self control front and probably just make out with David until one of them calls it quits or they're interrupted by literally any other survivor🤷♂️
He can think of (and has lived through) a million worse ways to pass time in the fog.]
[ david is strongly on-board with that plan, even doing his part to help out by moving to get as close to jeff as he can without literally climbing on him. maybe some other time. ]
[ he's of a similar mind, fully intending to do this until circumstances make them stop. so probably until drunken tiredness takes a turn for sleepy that they can't come back from, if david has his way. ]
feng stares directly at the camera like they're in the office
Worth a shot.

Ah, it'll come back.
[ well-- ]
Probably.
no subject
Probably shouldn't risk my livelihood on a 'probably.'
[He lapses into silence, before adding-]
You know. I didn't really think I was your, uh - type.
[This has nothing to do with David being into guys, and everything to do with Jeff just thinking David wouldn't really be into an arty metalhead.]

How d'you mean?
no subject
Uh. Nerdy metalheads, I guess.
[And, well, yeah, sure - he hadn't expected David to be into guys, but most people didn't expect him to be, either.]
no subject
Don't think I really have a type.
[ he's spent most of his life in an on/off relationship with one guy while dating women he can't stand, he hasn't had a chance to develop a type. ]

[ does that sound like a joke? he means for it to, but he winces a little once the words are out of his mouth. ]
... That was a joke.
[ saved it. ]
no subject
Well. Maybe. Regardless, he shakes his head.]
Hey, same goes to you. Maybe you'll remember you hate beards.
