Maybe not, but it is your right to do so. Your happiness matters to us, as well, you know?

[Just going to be matter of fact about that part up front.

It's really a testament to how close they've all allowed themselves to become that they're capable of a calm conversation in the first place.

...Though he's sure there will be some barking sooner or later. Better to just get what needs to be out first, then.]

Just because there is interest doesn't mean it needs to be acted upon.

[fullmoonmutt]

[ Choosing somewhere soundproof with room service is 100% why the dogs aren't barking yet. They need to focus to order food. ]

Ha, I knew it. You do like sweet things!

[ First the cookies, now this. He adds the milkshake to the rapidly growing list.

They're also getting more or less every appetizer on the menu to share: cheese curds, fries with a variety of aioli dips, onion rings, stuffed potato skins, chicken fingers, and fried tofu. Yes, that's on the menu, shut up. ]

Celeste is right, though. I mean, sure, the desire is there and all that shit, but we don't got to do anything.

[goei]

Yeah, if I was just gonna do it no matter what you thought I wouldn't have asked you in the first place.

[Gathering the list, Izou reaches for the phone, but then pauses and;]

I mean if yer worried about them stealin' me away you could jus' watch.

[And then he picks the phone up and starts ordering, preventing McGillis from murdering him on the spot, at least not immediately.]

[vogelfrei]

[ Eli gets a little shrug at his victory in confirming that McGillis does have a sweet tooth. It's fair enough, he'd been playing coy about it earlier but has given up on it now. Trust is a fragile and gradual thing, but it builds over time slowly and steadily.

... which is all very nice and sweet but then Izou decides to be Izou and McGillis makes a face.

And then has to hold that face until Izou gets off the phone with the karaoke staff. So rude. ]

I'm not doing you that favor.

[ Sorry, he'd address all that stuff about his own happiness but he's been sidetracked. ]

[cirquedesang]

[When Izou is, well, Izou, Celeste figures there will be some reaction from McGillis...

But the fact he makes a point to hold his face while he orders is... actually kind of endearing.

But he also refuses to acknowledge anything but the easiest part. So. Putting a pin in that for now.]

Izou...

[Chiding!!!]

[fullmoonmutt]

[ Yeah, he's safe while he's on the phone, but once Izou hangs up, he's getting a rough punch in the arm from Eli. ]

What the hell, Izou? Why would anyone want to watch?

[ Eli, don't ask questions unless you want an answer to them... ]

[goei]

[Eli is spared because Izou doesn't know either.]

I dunno! But apparently some people are into it! I just figured...

[Uhh.... Excuse... Excuse.]

Ok mostly I thought it'd get more of a reaction out of McGillis.

[vogelfrei]

[ ... ah. Of course. ]

I would not have put it past you to want me to watch, honestly.

[ Izou brought this public shaming on himself, he cannot complain now. ]

[cirquedesang]

[...Yep, there it is.]

It would be, ah... the great sword genius Okada Izou double wielding, no? Of course you would want to show off.

[goei]

[CAUGHT IN HIS OWN TRAP AND ALSO HIS OWN METAPHOR??? DID MCGILLIS TELL CELESTE??? NO SURELY HE WOULDN'T HAVE. Regardless of whether that was his intention, as usual his imagination gets the better of him with Celeste's vibrant language, and now he's the one getting flustered.]

Wh-No that ain't it at all!!

[HE IS BEING BETRAYED... HE ONLY HAS ONE ALLY LEFT;]

Eli! You believe me, right??

[vogelfrei]

[ Does this look like the face of a man who would tell any living soul about your horrible sword metaphors? McGillis looks like someone just made him bite into a lemon. ]

On second thought, I am giving a blanket 'no' to this.

[ CELESTE IS NOT ALLOWED TO INFECT IZOU WITH EVEN MORE CRINGE. ]

[goei]

[WOW SOUR LEMON IS RIGHT.]

Oi don't go decidin' that just because you can't appreciate a good metaphor!!

[DON'T BE A HATER!!!]

[vogelfrei]

It lacks finesse.

[ Celeste's use of it was even WORSE than Izou's. He can't live like this. ]

[cirquedesang]

[He's not the sword genius here to make the silly metaphor actually good.]

[goei]

I ain't the one who brought it back up so why do I gotta be punished!

[Have fun with that choice of words, Celeste.]

[vogelfrei]

You imagined it instantly.

[ You are being punished for being Way Too Easy. (Except McGillis has no serious intention of withdrawing his permissions, he's just being mean for the sake of it now.) ]

[fullmoonmutt]

[ Eli just watching this go on... ]

I don't even what you're all going on about.

[ Izou already has two weapons to wield, doesn't he?! Isn't that a whole thing?! Thank god there's a knock at the door. Someone's brought the food! Eli's immediately up to answer and take the platter from their server. ]

[cirquedesang]

[Eli, it's pure boyfriend privilege that Celeste takes one for the team for you--

Though he does have the decency to wait until the server is gone and the door is shut... And the food is set down.]

...In this instance, the swords are not actual swords at all.

[Handjob... motion...]

[fullmoonmutt]

[ ...huh. Eli slowly picks up an onion ring before plopping back down by Celeste. Crunch, chewing, thinking. ]

Right... [ Once his mouth is clear again, he really has to agree with McGillis on this one. ] I can see why McGillis hates that. It isn't very poetic for talking about dicks.

[vogelfrei]

Thank you.

[ Sipping that milkshake now. One can hope the sugar will placate him. ]

[fullmoonmutt]

I mean, I get how it makes sense with all the thrusting involved, but what about the swinging part of swords? Then you're just slapping each other with your dicks and it'd probably get awkward.

[ Eli, you can stop now. ]

[cirquedesang]

[Long suffering sigh...]

Aside from the fact some people are certainly into such things... It is not quite so literal. Though now I am interested in hearing what sort of poetic metaphors McGillis would be interested in, regarding all this.

[vogelfrei]

[ Eli.... Eli.... why are you making them imagine this for even a second.... ]

I don't see the need for euphemism when it comes to individual body parts. The act as a whole, sure. There's plenty of pretty words to describe it.

But when it comes to cocks, you can just call them that.

[goei]

Plus yer sheathin' it too, ain't ya? In someplace or another.

[Izou this isn't helpful.]

[goei]

That's Celeste's fault fer sayin' it like that!!

[Does he mean the word choice or simply that Celeste says things sexily. Who can say.]
