AnOTP: Felix/Dionysos

[skewedeyes]

He's actually not reading, for once! Exiting the Mansion, he goes strolling across the lawn with some sort of vague intent to go somewhere, but mostly just looking for company. Felix thrives on social interaction to an almost absurd degree, and hence every inch of him declares that he has no real purpose to his wanderings.

Dionysos loves people in all of their felicitous caprice, their willingness to be purposeless; however, even gods of excess and mirth must sometimes work, and today he is crouching at the bank of the lake, shaping himself a clay amphora for wine. He is nearly naked, wearing only a loincloth, and his fine, olive skin is splattered with clay. Despite the work-like nature of his work, he appears to be having a brilliant time.

Felix notices the mostly naked first, lifting one hand to shade his eyes and admire it. Before heading down towards the water, because pretty mens are enough to make even Felix overcome his fear of water.

[dionysos_evios]

That fear of water sounds debilitating, right there. Dionysos will certainly have noticed Felix heading over, and he'll smile wide and inviting.

Felix grins back. "Well, hello," he says, most definitely checking him out despite the clay. "What are you making?" With a curious headtilt at the clay structure.

[dionysos_evios]

"An amphora, for wine," Dionysos answers, showing it off. It is well-formed, considering that he doesn't have any proper tools to work it; put that down to godliness. He is unashamed about checking Felix out as well.

[skewedeyes]

The grin widens just a touch. He leans against a tree. "Oh? I thought this place was rather short on wine. That's what I was told."

[dionysos_evios]

"It is?" Dionysos smiles. "Scoop a handful of water from the lake and drink it." If Felix does, he will find that his handful has turned into sweet, fine wine.

[skewedeyes]

He goes down, gingerly, and eyeing the water, carefully takes a two handed dip and sips it. His eyes widen. "Well!"

[dionysos_evios]

Smiiiiile. "There is always wine, for those who have want of it."

[skewedeyes]

He sips the rest of it. And turns his head to give one of those dazzling Felixsmiles at him. "How generous of you."

[dionysos_evios]

"You are welcome." Dionysos climbs to his feet, then, and wades into the water--loincloth and all--to wash off the wet clay mud that's caked onto his skin.

[skewedeyes]

Felix backs up, watching him. It's not bad watching other people, as long as he doesn't have to go near it. And he's staying a good couple feet from the water's edge.

[dionysos_evios]

Then, after the most basic of washing, Dionysos will scramble back over the stones at the edge of the lake and step onto the bank again. "Will you walk in the grass with me?" he asks, and where the lake was, Felix will see a long meadow.

[skewedeyes]

Startled! "What-" He gives up.

Stranger things have happened. "I will."

[dionysos_evios]

It's still a lake. :D Dionysos snuggles against Felix's side. "You will want to take off your shoes--it is fine to walk barefoot on the grass, is it not?"

[skewedeyes]

XD Oh dear.

Oooh. Felix gives Dionysos an appreciative eyebrow quirk. "I suppose it is." And removes his shoes with a touch of a smile.
