Teddy Altman ; APPOINTMENTS
Feel free to use this post for random threads, backtagging/forwardtagging or whatever. It can be Written, Action, Voice, or just a quick call on the journal system for whatever reason.
When you tag, please put a [Style, Date] in the subject line to start it out, for example:
[Action, January 1st]
Thank you!
[action, june 9th]
Kind of like how my true self is apparently the soul-transmogrified twin son of a mutant, a synthezoid, and a hell-lord? Or how neither of us knew who our original parents were? A lot of unexpected things happened after we became super heroes.
[action, june 9th]
[They both had pretty messed up backgrounds. Teddy's was revealed to him much more... violently, but even so... unexpected indeed.
With that thought, Teddy edges his hand down, then up again, this time sliding under Billy's shirt to rest his hand against his bare stomach, the gesture more intimate than sensual.]
I never expected to fall so deeply in love with someone, either.
[action, june 9th]
[The gesture is both loving and vaguely ticklish whether Teddy means it or not, and Billy shifts a little, fighting back a pink-cheeked smile. He doesn't mind being teased or gently flirted with - it's much, much better than the alternative when it comes to discussing parents with Teddy - but he's fully prepared to wrestle down an invalid if this devolves into actual tickling. Kaplan Pride represent...!]
Can't say I really saw it coming, either. I guess good things really do come to those who wait for it.
[action, june 9th]
And that's about when Teddy pulls his hand away and crosses it over his chest instead, glancing to the side and fighting back a blush of his own. Bad Altman, bad. Just because they haven't done anything sexual for a couple of weeks now...]
... Well, you know, compared to a lot of other couples, I'd say we didn't have to wait that long.
[action, june 9th]
Also true. It just gives us longer to get to know each other, right?
[action, june 9th]
God, no. They're both too young, and Billy would laugh at his face. Best to just stop thinking of it.
Instead, he glances back at Billy with a little smile.]
Hey... I think I'll nap for a couple of hours. You can do whatever you want, I'll be here. [He turns his head towards Billy more, eyes half-lidding and eyebrows raising just slightly in an expression that's a little more sensual.] And maybe when I wake up...
[action, june 9th]
Easy, tiger. Let's go one step at a time, okay?
[He grabs a couch pillow, wiggling out from beneath Teddy's head and tucking said pillow under him to give him a spot to rest it. Much as he'd love to cuddle and watch Teddy sleep for a while, he's keen to get a few things done first; it's been a while since he was able to relax at home or work on any of his own projects without Teddy lurking over his shoulder too much, and they really could use a break from each other for a little while. Not to mention he's hungry.
And there's that crystal thing to deal with... he'll need to get that off the floor before he sleeps, or the shield around it will fail and god knows where it'll end up after that.
Billy crouches down to be closer to eye level, leaning in and giving Teddy a long, lingering kiss.]
Rest up. I'll save some food for you.
[action, june 9th]
Maybe he should go out after this, catch up with friends. Give Billy more time to himself.
Just as he's done thinking that, there's a kiss pressed to his lips, and he gladly returns it, one hand lifting up to brush the backs of his fingers across Billy's cheek. And when it's over, he keeps his hand there for a moment, expression tired yet fond.]
Mm. Best boyfriend. [And speaking of the shard:] Be careful around that thing, okay? I don't want to go all mortal kombat with another possession.
[action, june 9th]
[He's teasing though, obviously; he has no desire to get possessed again, nor do anything reckless to get anyone else possessed either. He moves his hand to cover Teddy's, holding it there in the hopes of reassuring him one last time before he pulls away.]
I promise I'll be careful. If I can't get it off the floor I'll put a box over it or something.
[action, june 9th]
[Teddy pulls away as Billy does and, not wanting to keep Billy with him any longer, he turns his body so that he's on his side and facing away from him, letting out a sleepy, appreciative sound at the feeling of freedom. It feels unbelievably good to be able to let Billy go out without feeling afraid of what he's doing and wanting to fly after him, and to actually sleep peacefully.]
Now, go on. Have fun.
[action, june 9th]
He takes a moment to grab a blanket and pull it over his boyfriend's body with a quiet murmur to sleep well before he wanders off to do his own thing. He's pretty sure they'll sleep well tonight.]
