Serves me right for trying to think about stuff to take my mind off my back.

it's not as bad as it could be.
but it's pretty bad.
...but we also finally got to meet each other.

[cahoooooooots]

I swear to god, John, meeting you makes so much of it worth it.

[ecto_biologist]

don't get me wrong, i still don't want to spend my life here.
but hey, as long as we're together, i'm willing to call it an okay place.
especially since i met you.

[cahoooooooots]

That reminds me.
Hey, peeping toms reading this whole thing.
Shove it.
If I want to 8e cute with my 8oyfriend, I'll do it.

Now where were we?

[ecto_biologist]

i love how protective you get sometimes.
it's sweet.
you know, the times when you don't have to go saving my life.

[cahoooooooots]

Yeah, 8ut you know I'll do it for as long as I have to.
I know you'd do the same for me.

[ecto_biologist]

yeah, i know you will. and you know i would.
and i'm okay with that.
more than okay with it.

[cahoooooooots]

Me too.
8ut it wouldn't kill you to take a 8r8k once in a while.
:::;)
How's this week shaping up for you so far?

[ecto_biologist]

i'll see if i can't make time for a br8k.
you rubbed off on me, with all that claims of irons being in the fire.
;B
so far, so good, aside from the back pains, but those will be over with soon enough, i gather.

[cahoooooooots]

Yeah, the... wings.
If I hadn't seen it happen to that puppet-faced douche8ag I'd never 8elieve it.
Anyway, of all the things I could've ru88ed off on you, the irons and the fire are two pretty important ones.
Usually harmless, too.
Unless you play too much with the fire, 8ut it's okay.
8ecause you're pretty hot to 8egin with. :::;D

[ecto_biologist]

it feels really weird, i won't lie.
but yes.
i feel like the fire's been left cool for too long, and if that means i need to stoke the flame a bit brighter.
well, it's like you said, i've always been pretty hot.
but i'd say the master's flame burns the hottest and brightest. ;B

[cahoooooooots]

Oh my god John you're such a dork.
Come here so I can kiss you.

[ecto_biologist]

i'll be right there.
leave the door open.

[cahoooooooots]

For you, my door's always open.
Swoooooooon.
