Regulus,
Actually, I know at least one person who would object to such anythings and one that has some other principles against it, despite you making it sound very tempting, thank you very much.
Why do I need to change clothes, exactly? I'm dressed just fine.
Who's being a spastic pirate?
Well, last I saw you, you were pulling his pants off and being a great deal intimate with him while I... wasn't. Not with Avery. Not anyone. It... I. Hrmph.
Anything is really out of the question. I know. It's disappointing, isn't it? For me, too. Maybe it'll cheer you up to know that you really are my favorite Black family member?
In most illustrious distress,
Will.

That should serve as some sort of reassurance, right?! RIGHT?!
Regulus felt quite like he was losing his mind.
He needed .. SOMETHING right now. SOMETHING. But it didn't seem as if he was going to get whatever this elusive something was.

Will Nott didn't give in. Will Nott never gave in to things like this. Will Nott, most importantly, never gave in to himself. His vice was... no. He would resist any temptation when he was under the influence.
Under the influence of CHASTITY.
He held his head.
Regulus,
I would know. It has nothing to do with discretion on part of the general public. Well. Not really, anyway. It's on PRINCIPLE, REGULUS. PRINCIPLE!
Well then why bother mentioning them in the first place?
Regulus, dear lord, you don't even know what that MEANS. Although you saying this makes me wonder what exactly is your idea of being intimate.
You frighten me sometimes.
In gravest sympathy at your confusion,
Will.
(P.S.: Because you are confused, that's why. Or maybe it's just because

Regulus had to do something. Regulus had to do Will .. something.
HE WOULD NOT GIVE IN. EVER. Not even if his hands fell off from writing all of these OWLS.

"Don't you dare--" he started up as soon as he came in and Regulus had that look on his face, "--get up, or say anything. I am simply here to tell you IN PERSON that this is ridiculous because you'll NEVER believe me over paper."

WILL NOTT WILL NOTT WILL NOTT WILL NOTT WILL NOTT!! OH MY GOD HE WAS THERE IN REGULUS'S BEDROOM AND IT WAS JUST REGULUS HERE AND NO ONE ELSE BUT HIM AND WILL NOTT AND REGULUS HAD TO FIGHT THE URGE TO SQUEAL EXCITEDLY AT THE SIGHT OF HIM AND WAS IT POSSIBLE FOR SOMEONE TO GROW EVEN MORE APPEALING WHEN ALREADY, THEY HAD SUCH A HIGH AMOUNT TO START WITH?!
It certainly seemed so.
But perhaps it was a different sort of appeal. Or one that has become more apparent to Regulus.
But keep composure. Must not squeal at Will. That might scare him off. He doesn't seem the sort to jump all over squealing.
"Well I believe it's ridiculous as well, I mean.. we're both in the same sort of boat, aren't we?" Regulus gave Will a meaningful sort of look. "And SOMETHING brought you here, didn't it? Something. And I'm not moving, am I now?" Since Regulus was conveniently on his bed, and coincidentally in a position that would further argue his particular case.
Regulus smirked and naturally he was LOOKING at Will. OH MY GOD WILL NOTT Looking and NOT MOVING and now, well now he wasn't saying anything. He didn't NEED to, with that LOOK.

Will crossed his arms in front of his chest, tapping his foot. "And you can get off the bed. And quit looking like that. It's freaky. Stop that. Honestly. You won't break me." if he wasn't so proud he would have admitted that he was pouting by now. This was ridiculous.
Reply
Regulus sighed and stretched out, all the while making sure to remain giving that LOOK to WILL. "I do think that you coming here in person shows, well I think you're curious, personally. You're curious and my attempts aren't all futile if I at least managed THAT." Regulus paused for a moment and looked thoughtful before continuing, "And I'm a bit curious myself. Again, the boat. We're both in it, aren't we?"
Regulus WAS a Slytherin, wasn't he?! He was, and he was bent on proving it.
"I think I already HAVE broken you," Regulus was, considering who was HERE, very observant of the silent sort of signs, such as the pouting. He never figured Will to be the pouting sort.
Wonders never did cease, did they? And Regulus hoped that the wonders wouldn't begin to cease any time soon.
Reply
Will held his head. "You have not broken me. You will NEVER break me. I'm sorry, Will Nott's just simply aren't broken. What are you trying to prove, anyway?"
Taking a deep breath, Will shook his head. "Wait. Before you answer that. I want to know what exactly in your terms means 'being intimate,' because I would never, ever believe you if you told me you actually just instinctively learned what all this stuff was? What. Did Avery tutor you? That one time? Is that what this is about? Now that you're done with Avery, you're here to take it a step up, hmmm? Really, now, Regulus. What is this all really about?"
Reply
"Who said this was about proving anything?" Again with the innocent sort of look, innocent and also not in the least bit suspicious. "You have a headache? Want something that will help with that?"
Regulus had to hold back a particularly evil sort of smirk at this NEXT question. That was.. well he was walking right into something there, Regulus was sure of it. "I can't really express the true meaning of being intimate if you're all the way over THERE. So very painfully NOT intimate. So you should come over here, and I'll answer that as well as your other questions. Fair's fair I think."
Reply
Will shook his head. "I don't need anything that will help with that. No headaches. Just you. YOU. You are my biggest headache right now, Regulus." And Modesty. Will gripped onto his hair in distress. This was terrible.
"Oh no. Don't you dare think for one second that I'm that easy to win over. And besides, by saying that you've just proven my theory!" Will's face lit up and he briefly wondered if this was it; if all this chastity had truly caused him to snap. "You know absolutely nothing at all about intimacy and sex and foreplay and doing anything in the bedroom at all. So little that it's painful. So I'm bound to not believe you unless you somehow prove this to me from over here. Because I'm just not that easily won over. I'm just not. Just ask Modesty." Will took a deep breath.

"ACTUALLY," Regulus was persisting with his LOOKS, now loosening his tie a bit, "I think you're giving yourself a headache and trying to blame it on me because you can't believe the solution to all of your problems would really be this simple. Am I right, or am I right?"
Regulus was now slightly offended. He really wasn't THAT clueless about things. Even though he would NEVER admit it to someone else, and sometimes wouldn't admit it to himself, he's had a fair share of wanks in his day. Something he'd discovered by accident but the point was that he then KNEW. He just didn't want to admit THAT part because it seemed sort of ..unsophisticated was it? Just to sit there and have it on with oneself. It was the sort of thing he'd save for only if he was very, very bored and also very, very solitary.
As for other people, sex was only sex and any sort of contact with the bits was also only pointing towards sex if both people had that in mind. Which is why Regulus could really play with Avery's bits as much as he pleased and there was nothing sexual at all about THAT, as that wasn't his intention, and since it wasn't his intention, the Lust Energies would then not be transferred to Avery so it wasn't anything like that for him either.
But this was Will Nott. Will Nott, the intended recipient of all of Regulus's Lust Energies. Regulust Energies. So therefore, anything Regulus might do WOULD be very much so along THOSE lines.
And Regulus did have roommates who would constantly complain about various terms and concepts which Regulus DID look up because really, if he had to hear them rant for hours on end about it, he should at least know what the ranting was ABOUT, right? RIGHT?
It was.. intriguing, to say the least.
Now if Will Nott was a girl, Regulus would be beyond clueless.
"I know much more than you give me credit for, and really, I know that you have to be over HERE for me to do anything unless you're the sort who for some reason wants to watch me have a wank for SOME REASON," Regulus pouted and looked at Will, "I never said you were easy to win over. It's been YEARS, you know. That's hardly easy to win over. And I can prove it if I had some idea of what you want me to prove. Do you want me to illustrate it and hand you a notebook with all sorts of drawings? Do you want me to strip naked and be indecent with MYSELF? Do you want me to just recite random facts at you? OR ALL OF THAT AT ONCE?!"
Regulus thought there was quite a good chance that Will might have lost his mind.

It wasn't really the fact that he was afraid of Regulus.
He really wasn't.
What scared him was his slowly wavering reluctance to partake in Very, Very Bad Things that would be considered really wrong to certain people... and should to himself.
But he wasn't going on that bed.
But he wasn't leaving either.
ARGH.
He held his head.
"Regulus, I don't care what you do, but... oh, lord I don't know. It's going to take a lot more persuasion but you have to keep in mind that this is like you're taking advantage of me because good lord, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm so confused right now." And mildly desperate.
Oh goddd.

Regulus was becoming frustrated with all of the denial of the Regulust that had been going on as of late. Although none of that had anything at ALL to do with Avery. He was SURE OF IT.
And don't even bother saying otherwise because it's NOT TRUE.
Regulus got up off of the bed and was soon sitting next to Will on the floor.
"Perhaps I am insane, although just a bit. Because, you know, we're both on the floor. And if you were that confused, you're apparently not as confused as you think you are since otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to recognize your confusion as being..er.. confusion."
Never a more confusing sentence had ever been spoken by Regulus.
PERSUASION? Regulus was sure that randomly stripping and looking at Will with his best 'come hither' look wouldn't really do much. It seemed too..sudden. And Will wasn't at the point where sudden would work. That, and Will might have absolutely no idea where exactly 'hither' was, what with the look of Will Angst about him.
"You really don't care what I do?" Regulus looked at Will skeptically, "Everyone has their..er..preferences and I'm sure YOU do too and it should be what you like, so it's not like I'm just taking advantage of you as you put it. You will find that I'm rather agreeable," Regulus smirked at Will with his very best sort of Regusmirk and hoped that it might start to do SOMETHING here. His looks and now his location should start to have some form of payoff.
Regulus was very patient when it came to getting what he wanted. So really, no big issue THERE anyways.

For as long as he could remember, he never cried. His mother once said that he'd rarely ever cried as a baby, and that even if something bad happened - like having his favorite toy stolen by other mean kids, or getting his knee scraped open - he always suppressed the tears, not wanting to show any sign of weakness.
Modesty had made him cry once. Maybe twice. She always brought out his emotions in extreme and he didn't like it.
This was all her fault. It seemed so stupid and dramatic and generally ARGH but he couldn't help himself. Anyone else wouldn't make him react this strongly.
BUT HE HAD NEEDS, DAMMIT.
NEEDS SOMETIMES SUMMONED NON-EXISTENT TEARS.
Pressing his palms into his eyes, Will sighed. "I have a headache," he said to cover anything up. There. He was all right again. Control. Right. This was not futile. Resistance. He was stronger than this and this was ridiculous.
"You've got me, haven't you?" Will asked, shrugging. He felt like all the life had been drained from him. "I... I can't fix this one."
