screaming!!!

[kobes]

[There's a long pause wherein Koby is definitely screaming into his pillow in embarrassment.]

Yes.
You can keep it.
I've read it a couple times.

[holyposition]

A couple times? How much is there to say about it?

[ It's a slim paperback. But still. ]

[kobes]

Well, there are nuances and intricacies that I'm less familiar with, okay?
It's a delicate art. I want to make sure I do it right.

[holyposition]

I don't think you're patient enough.

[kobes]

I can be patient!! It's not about PATIENCE!!

[holyposition]

It is a little.

You're a goal oriented person. Which is a good thing to be. Just, maybe, not so suited to this, because you're eager to make the other guy finish.

[kobes]

You're biased, perhaps. I can tease. I can take a VERY long time. You just haven't seen it before.

[holyposition]

It's not biased, it's an observation.

[kobes]

Based on ONE experience, that's hardly empirical evidence. Besides, it was a
Unique situation, too. You had a lot going on.

[holyposition]

I always have a lot going on. Don't we all?

The diagrams are unnecessarily explicit. This is almost pornography.

[kobes]

I meant in the moment, but yes. We do. Is it nice, the quiet? Having your own space?

Well, it helps to have everything labeled, I didn't know half of this stuff. Different equipment.

[holyposition]

It doesn't feel like my own yet. He's still got stuff here.

Right, sorry. I just don't know if this is the kind of thing you learn from books. It's better hands on.
which there is no way to say without sounding crude, shut up

[kobes]

Ah.
Do you want help? Boxing it up? [Maybe he misses you Tim, shut up.]

No, no, please, go on, I think you have a promising future as a sexual kink lecturer :) Tell me more about hands on experience.

[holyposition]

I don't know. He says he's coming back in three weeks, if I let him. I don't know if I will yet.

👨‍🏫

Well, Koby, I think you ought to try things before dedicating yourself to reading a whole book about it. There's all kinds of things I've enjoyed that I would have thought were crazy if you'd asked me before. And some things that sounded good, but weren't in practice.

It's based in emotion, not facts and diagrams.

[kobes]

Three weeks. Interesting.
He talked to me too. He wanted me to warn you about certain guests.

Where'd that little guy come from? He looks like you. 👨‍🏫👨‍🏫👨‍🏫
🦭🦭🦭 there's a seal, too.

I know!
I know. In theory.



Facts are safer, though. I can't ruin facts.

[holyposition]

Does that mean something to you?

Danny? You can just say Danny. I'm not involved with him and I told Hawk that about thirty times

🥛✝️🇺🇲🌲

A lot of it is gonna be subjective. Or situational. Or depending on the person. Not a lot of hard facts.

[kobes]

Not yet. I need to check a couple books.

Yes, Danny. [The sigh is almost audible.] He does have a point, sort of, but I think an abundance of caution is appropriate with everyone.

Milk purple x flag tree. What's that mean?
I forgot too, if I told you about when I was a seal, in the last place. I'm sorry if I didn't, it slipped my mind.

That's a lot of complicating factors. So far I've liked
Everything? That doesn't mean I've been any good at it.

[holyposition]

For what???

There's nothing to be worried about, since I'm not involved with him.

that's a cross koby. they don't mean anything together it's just some that I like

Well for me, sometimes I like things with one person and I won't like them with another. A different dynamic changes things. Like I said, it's all emotional.

[kobes]

Date significance, historical correlation, the usual stuff.

"Involved" means "talking to" in this case, I think. I trust you. I trust your judgement.

Oh! I thought you were sending me some sort of code. 📚⛵️🎣🎩

Huh. I hadn't thought about it like that. How many people HAVE you been with?
Or is that a weird question.

[holyposition]

The usual stuff? The end of September isn't inherently interesting.

It would be inappropriate, usually. But I trust you, too. You can't tell anyone this.

Eight people, if you include yourself. Half of them since I've been here.

[kobes]

Not on the surface, no, but there are all sorts of histories and traditions -- old farmer's almanacs, festivals and birthdays and deathdays. I'll figure something out.

I won't. I can keep a secret. [Haha....hah.]

Does it only count if
Well. What makes it count? What are the parameters?

[holyposition]

"Three weeks, interesting. There might be a birthday. I better do more research."

???

If you're being physically intimate, it counts for me. Hawk doesn't count blowjobs.

[kobes]

CLEARLY it's a significant date to Hawk, otherwise he wouldn't have specified.
Also it's interesting to see when famous people were born!
Did you know Abraham Lincoln was born three months and one day before me??? That's practically the same day. [Koby.]

Really? That brings my number down.
I think it counts, though. So --
Seven. All here.

[holyposition]

I don't think it is. And I thought you didn't even share the same calendar as us.

Really? In 3 months?
Sorry
that sounded bad. it's fine. it seems like they want us to.





Who?

[kobes]

Not the same years, but the same months, for...some reason. And the seasons are vaguely the same, in some areas. Also, apparently, some of the same holidays?

I'd never done ANYTHING before, remember, I hadn't really had time.
Plus a lot of it was influenced by this place. My first time at Underworld I was
Sort of all over the place. It was nice, really nice.



You first.
