I wanted something that would be...James demonstrating how much he wants Michael, not necessarily sexually yet, but as his, as his other half. And Michael does seem to understand it that way. And also, of course, it's an oddly intimate and sensuous gesture, isn't it...?

Surprisingly so, when you consider how often we generally tend to scribble notes on our hands ourselves - but it becomes a whole different ball game in this context (never really been one for that 'writing on the body' kink, but I think I may just have become a fan!)

They needed that sort of...normality, I suppose is the word. They can be a real couple and do couple-y things, not just react to crises! :-)

This is an important thing to prove - relationships can't just be about the extreme highs and extreme lows, you need to know you can just be with the other person...

Part 15...well, they're going to try to have sex again at some point, right...? *hints*

I admit, I was kind of hoping we were headed in that direction! ;)

(Appointment was rescheduled for today; have been medication-less since yesterday and seem to be fine, so I am taking this as a good sign!)

It is a VERY good sign!

*laughs* I know, I never was either, and then this scene just turned up, and somehow...that's...kind of delicious. Tangible inscriptions, the intimacy of placing your name on someone else's body, ink over skin...

Exactly! If you're in it for the long term, there WILL be far more mundane or ordinary days than dramatic and exciting ones (though of course the boys, both being actors, have their share of exciting), and it's about living with someone, not battling the extremes!

Tiny part 15 excerpt here: http://luninosity.livejournal.com/58142.html?thread=1309726#t1309726 ...it's becoming long, though, so it may not be done tomorrow. Maybe Friday?

And, it seems that I am better! Or anyway medicationless! They said to still sort of be watchful for a few days in case things come back, but hooray--health! *greatly appreciates working kidneys*

Mmmmmmmmmm, yes, when you describe it like that...

And, it seems that I am better! Or anyway medicationless! They said to still sort of be watchful for a few days in case things come back, but hooray--health! *greatly appreciates working kidneys*

This is fantastic news! *twirls you*

Hi there, newfound kink! :-p

And, indeed! *twirls with you, happily* I mean, they always seemed very sure it was fixable, but...still rather a relief that it IS!
