Yeah? Good to know. [ It's clear Kyle is feeling pretty good about himself. He's always smiling, but there's something extra in his dimpled cheeks and blue eyes. ] Though, I didn't feel too awesome when I was getting it done. Spooky had to hold my hand the whole time...
Oh uhhhh... [ Does he need help? No. Would it be pretty sweet if Nico rubbed him down with lotion while he laid on his bed? Yes. Yes, it would. ] Sure.
[ it's more like ten minutes later that he appears in kyle's apartment, stepping out of a shadow in the living room and glancing around for his friend. ]
[ Ten minutes is even better. It gives him more time to have a presentable room and no rogue undies wandering around on the carpet. ]
Hey! Nice timing...
[ Kyle didn't bother putting his shirt back on. What would be the point? He's only eighteen, but it's clear in his broad shoulders he's still got plenty of growing to do. Though he's stuck with a little baby fat too. ]
So. Tat bros, huh?
[ Sounds like the name of a shitty punk garage band. ]
Oh, yeah, sure... [ Sorry if Kyle is laughing a little. It just sounds like the beginning of a dumb teen porno. He expects some techno club music to start as they walk toward his bedroom.
He's got the small bottle of lotion on his nightstand, made for sensitive skin. He is a ginger after all, even if most natural elements don't do much to him. It gets tossed over to Nico to catch. ]
[ the humor flies right over his head, mostly because he's never really watched pornos. though given the nature of eudio, it's no wonder nico's mind goes straight to the gutter when kyle asks if it's okay to do it on his bed. ]
Uh... sure, that works.
[ catching the bottle, he follows kyle to the bedside. ]
[ Ohhh Nico, you are missing out on a rite of passage for a hormonal male teen. Sneaking terrible porn on your computer is a must! ]
Thanks, man.
[ Without pulling the sheets down, Kyle lays down on his stomach and pillows his head on top of one arm. The tattoo in the center of his back is still red and sensitive, although it sure didn't stop him from dragging his friend Spooky right into the sack with him. ]
[ now that kyle's lying down, nico takes a moment to assess the situation. how to go about making sure he applies the lotion properly without missing anything. he figures the best way is a little leverage, so he kicks off his converse and climbs onto the bed, straddling kyle, kneeling on either side of kyle's ass. as he opens the lotion and smears a good amount on his hands, he speaks. ]
No problem. I have to do the same thing for mine, though it's pretty easy to do it myself.
[ Kyle doesn't even feel the change in temperature. If anything Nico's the one who can probably feel how much heat is coming off of Kyle's back and seeping into him. Even the lotion can't stay cold for long. ]
Nothing big. I just assumed the runes would work best if they were right by the, uh, problem area, but my friend said it'd work no matter where I put it. So I changed it.
[ the warmth is something he actively appreciates, given how cool his own body tends to be. it seeps into his skin, down to his bones in a way that he's never before experienced. it would be too tempting to moan, but he withholds the noise, focusing on massaging the lotion into kyle's back. ]
Makes sense. As for me... I just wanted something to make sure I never forget Bianca. I mean, I don't think I ever would, but just... a tribute to her seems appropriate.
[ upon hearing that groan, nico's hands stutter to a stop and he's grateful kyle can't see him, because he's slowly turning red. clearing his throat and nodding (though kyle can't see that either), he begins kneading the lotion into the outer edges of the tattoo, slowly working his way in. ]
Yeah. I hope so. Bianca was... She was my only family for a long time.

[ and he shifts the view to his hip so that he can tug down the waistband of his jeans to reveal a bow & arrow shaped tattoo. ]
Percy and I both got one.

It represents Artemis. My sister was one of her hunters before she died. It also represents Apollo... because my boyfriend is one of his sons.

[ Very good job, Nico c: ]

[ Being able to heal quick would be awesome! ]
Spooky had to put the lotion on the first time... And probably the next time. I didn't pick a very convenient spot.

Give me, like, five minutes then zip over!
[ Aaand with that Kyle start zooming around his home to make it look less of a pathetic nerdy bachelor pad. ]

Yeah, I almost got mine there, too, actually. [ But he was just a little too embarrassed with himself if he had actually done it. ]

What made you change your mind?
