"Yeah, that'd work," Dan said, feeling maybe just a little disappointed that Shae had put his shirt back on. He picked Shae up, slowly since he was tired, then beat his wings hard enough that he managed to get aloft and fly over to the roof. He set Shae down and sat down his nest. @ShadowLord_Lith
-
"I was thinking maybe a more, uh, private place," Dan suggested. He looked around and spotted Shae's shirt, then walked over and picked it up, walking back to Shae. @ShadowLord_Lith
-
"Or maybe just sit and talk?" Dan asked, somewhat hopefully. @ShadowLord_Lith
-
"Sounds great," Dan said, then looked around. "Can you think of anything else we could do today, unless you have classes or something?" @ShadowLord_Lith
-
"Yeah, I'd be fine with that," Dan said, "though I go for way longer than an hour usually. Your face..." Shae's face was drenched with sweat, and it was impugning on his good looks, so Dan licked Shae's face thoroughly. He didn't mind licking up sweat, he'd done it maybe a billion times before. Tesans asked each other to do it all the time. @ShadowLord_Lith
-
Dan looked Shae over closely and noted which muscles weren't up to par with the others, then said, "Yeah, okay, we're starting with weights." He brought Shae over to the lifting area and got his boyfriend working. @ShadowLord_Lith
-
Aaaayyy. "Okay," Dan said. "I happen to be pretty good at telling people what to do with working out, since I've had people to tell me how to do it my entire life. There is no rest when all of your friends are the children of soldiers, I tell you." He looked up from the ground as he rained sweat on it [yes, this happens] and up at Shae. "I'll tell you what to do, but what sort of workout are you talking about?"
-
"I can do that," Dan puffed. "What're you going to do?" @ShadowLord_Lith
-
"You're not allowed to belay," Dan said, "because you don't have a license, so I'll just climb up and down one, since it's impossible to fly in a space as narrow as in here." He looked around the routes, then picked a five-nine because he was tired, and walked over to it, climbing up the wall with his arms aching like he'd stuck them in a bucket of ice water for five minutes. He climbed back down, almost jumping off on instinct, but managed to not kill himself. @ShadowLord_Lith
-
"I'm going to lower you now," Dan yelled at Shae. "Don't freak out." He lowered Shae, slowly, back down to the floor. "You okay?" @ShadowLord_Lith
-
Dan pulled up the slack and yelled up to Shae, "Lean off the wall and I'll lower you down." Most people were dead afraid of this part, not trusting the rope to hold or their belayer to not drop them to their deaths. Dan was quite experienced in belaying and had never dropped someone, so Shae had no reason to worry, and he'd explain that if Shae refused to get off the wall. @ShadowLord_Lith
-
Dan pulled up the slack on Shae’d part of the rope, then nodded at the wall and said, “Climb.” @ShadowLord_Lith
-
Dan took the rope that Shae would be using, and tied the right kind of knot, then showed Shae how to attach it to his harness, and how to finish it. @ShadowLord_Lith
-
“Yeah, and I’ll show you how to tie a proper knot for it.” Dan put on his own harness, which he usually wouldn’t do, but he had to belay Shae, and walked over to one of the routes. He clipped the rope into his belay tool and waved for Shae to come over. @ShadowLord_Lith
-
“Okay,” Dan said, going down on one knee in front of Shae and inspecting the harness critically, “the strap around your waist isn’t tight enough,” he fixed that, “and your ‘adventure straps’ aren’t clipped in.” He also fixed that, slightly embarrassed. @ShadowLord_Lith
-
Dan made a face. He’d only ever shown little kids how to put these on, so it probably be a little weird. “You hold it like this,” he grabbed a harness and held it upright, “and make sure that it’s not messed up anywhere.” He clipped in one of the ‘adventure straps’ at the back that had been hanging free. “Put your legs through the leg holes and fasten the straps.” @ShadowLord_Lith
-
“Okay, just follow me.” He walked over to the wall and pointed at a rack of harnesses. “Do you know how to put one of those on?” @ShadowLord_Lith
-
“Any respectable gym should have a climbing wall somewhere in it,” Dan muttered to himself, then looked at Shae and only then realized that his boyfriend was shirtless, and sexy, holy begeezes. He controlled his urge to stare at those muscles, and managed to just look Shae in the eyes. “If I find a place, would you come with... oh hey,” he glanced at a corner of the gym, “that’s where it is.” There was a wall with holds drilled into it in that corner, and Dan looked back at Shae. “Ever climbed before?” @ShadowLord_Lith
-
“I was talking more about rock-climbing,” Dan said. “Do you know if they have a wall in here?” @ShadowLord_Lith
-
“The scars look weird when I’m sweaty, don’t they,” Dan said, glancing at his own forearm and grimacing at his scars, specifically the cat-claws one. “Do you know if there are any cliffs around here?” @ShadowLord_Lith
-
Dan stood up after a hundred or so push-ups, stretching his arms and rolling his shoulders. Hope this place has a decent cliff somewhere around here, he thought, picking up the weights he’d been using earlier and putting them back on the rack. He walked through the building, enjoying the burn in his muscles, and saw Shae near the entrance. He walked up behind his boyfriend and said, “Hey.” @ShadowLord_Lith
-
“Aye,” Dru said.

Woodrack, you have two options: murder or making six of your characters into NPCs.

Things to make a Homeless feel old: 3 months: You've been around since The Other Side of the World thread was a big deal. 5 months: You were present during the GB Ball. 7 months: You were around when Witless was active. 9 months: Subforum. 9+ months: You were around when the first ever CoC duel happened.

Why do you think I was doing that?
