It was far from my first time seeing them. I had already fallen by the time he brought them out the other night anyway.

Uh huh. Sure you aren't. If Jayce were a worm I'd keep in a terrarium with nice moist dirt and plenty of kitchen scraps to eat.

Perfect. We took our time, really got used to each other in a new way.

Twenty is obviously an exaggeration. The point is just that even if I'm willing to share more than Jayce is, There are still some things I'd prefer to keep just between us.

Not much to say that I don't think I've said here already, but I can share more details. Even if I didn't realize that Jayce was the one who bookmarked that picture, I knew he liked seeing me in his clothes, so I wore another one of his shirts to sleep, started talking about how much I liked it.

════════════════ OOC POST: ════════════════ Hello! We’re not planning on turning this into a pregnancy RP, no. As you said, there are already a ton of those, so if that’s what folks are looking for, there are plenty to choose from, but this won’t be on that list.

════════════════ OOC POST: ⊹ New here? Need briefing? ⊹ ════════════════ You can refresh or catch up any time now at our new strawpage: jvmodernrp.straw.page I'll delete this and make a better post for it later, but until then, I wanted to make it accessible to those joining us. :)

Of course. I don't dislike dogs. I just don't think I'd be very good at taking care of one. Especially high energy dogs.

We can, and we will. :)

Enough times that we were satisfied. Maybe that means once, maybe that means 20 times. Who knows?

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't even a little scared. But some things are worth the risk.

Yes and yes. He's phenomenal with his hands. :)

Honestly, the answer is very long and complicated and personal, which is something I typically try to avoid sharing. But maybe it'll help someone, so I'll explain. Buckle in, I guess.

I'm alive. Apologies - I overslept and had to rush to get ready for work. Finally have a moment to look at my phone. I'll answer some of your questions soon.

Thank you for the advice. We’ll be sure to keep that in mind. 😬

I will not be posting a play by play, unfortunately for you all. But I will say that Jayce and I were both very happy to finally have our feelings out in the open, and we both had a VERY good time last night.

This is so cute! And a very fast turnaround, haha. Thank you!

I took it a while back, but it’s been years, I don’t remember the results at all. Maybe I’ll try it again.

A little personal, there. My legs are fine.

This is going to sound like a cop out, but not really. He was as patient and skilled and attentive as I thought he’d be. Not that I’ve spent any significant amount of time thinking about it, of course.

Definitely think I got beard burn, but it was more than worth it.

😊 ❤️

Now that it’s been concluded, I can happily share the details. My hypothesis was that Jayce and I had feelings for each other that weren’t strictly platonic, but neither of us were willing to risk being wrong and making things weird.

Good morning. It’s going to be a good day. :)

The results of the experiment are in. I really thought I’d have to keep it going for longer to see any results, let alone ones this successful. :)

Haha, fair enough. The donkey wearing a cap - so cute! Here is your payment. :)

Unfortunately, I have to dress professionally, which doesn’t include wearing clothes three sizes too big for me. On the bright side, Jayce was kind enough to let me borrow a jacket, at least. :)

I did. I fear I may have to make a habit of it.

Considering running a little personal experiment. Can’t say what it is so don’t ask, but I’ll share the results once I’m certain.

Oh. Than you for asking. It’s mostly been good, despite the little hiccup of seeing some things this morning. With a little luck, Jayce will start relaxing again soon enough.

I do think Jayce saw more than me, in all fairness. I don’t know. I’m an adult, I e seen porn before. Of course it’s a little uncomfortable that this particular porn is of us, but I can just choose not to think about it. Helps to keep busy, give myself other things to focus on.

Do you mean in general? Do you want an itemized list? Kidding. I know what you mean. I think we're both just feeling a little awkward after realizing there's apparently art and stories and stuff about us. He'll get over it, I'm sure.

Fine, I'll be more clear. Jayce Talis kissed me multiple times on the face this morning, but not on the mouth. Is everyone happy? Have I explained well enough?

Oh. Wow. That is a lot.

I can't believe he actually kissed me.

You think you’re so funny, don’t you.

Haha. Jayce and I work really well together. Both at the lab and with his passion project. I’m always impressed by his dedication.

I stand by that I would have been content with just getting normal pizza or something. But I can admit that dinner last night was really nice. I don’t know if things will ever fully go back to how they were before with Jayce, but we’re comfortable again. No more bad blood.

Kind of a personal question to ask an internet stranger, don’t you think? As a general concept, I guess it’s fine, so long as all parties involved are clear about expectations. I don’t think it’s really something I’d personally be interested in, if that’s what you’re asking.

The job pays very well. But New York City is a really high cost of living area. Jayce moved across the country, and I moved across the world. Work subsidies the rent costs, but we still have to pay for groceries, electricity, internet, etc.

Yes. For casual, friendly, platonic sleepovers. Where we sleep and maybe talk a bit and do absolutely nothing else.

You make it sound…hm. They’re just sleepovers. It’s not like that.

I never said that.

Told Jayce we don’t have to go out tonight, but he insists. I’m sure we’ll have a good time, though.

Look who decided to keep me company. :)

Honestly? I’m not sure. Jayce knows I’m not convinced that magic is real. But it costs me nothing to help, and I do enjoy solving complex problems. Who knows? Maybe I’ll change my mind.

A little. Mostly I just read through his notes and what he’s managed to unencrypt so far.

Promised Jayce I’d take a proper look at his books and notes today. I’ve got my work cut out for me.

Thank you, that’s very kind of you. I’ll pass on your kind sentiment to Jayce. :)

Really good :)
