my bro from another ho

Puck

Did you get the name of that naiad last night?

J-Dawg

Are you fucking kidding me? I should punch you in the junk rn. My M O T H E R is livid

Puck

Oh, that explains a few things.

Puck

Uh, can you get someone with fire magic to come and help me de-ice the walls?

You wake up a little bleary-eyed and fuzzy-minded. It's strange. You don't really remembering overindulging last night, and yet here you are with the distinct sense that somehow you weren't making the best decisions. Faerie magic is funny like that.

But it's probably fine. It's not like you made any really poor life decisions, right? Like drunk-mirroring your fellow Faewild guests?

Oh. Oh no.

Better check your messages, and see what's in your Reflections from the Night Before.

I mean, I think typically it goes in the other order? But really, no wrong answer.

I mean, personally, I'm more in favor of sex first. There's something too intimate about kissing for comfort sometimes. That may just be me though.

………so I’m just realizing that the text might have been a bit misleading.

We’re not so much “having sex” sleeping together as we are “sharing a bed curled up with each other every night” sleeping together.

But I think the question can still apply.

[charmperson]

All right, well. That's precious, for one thing..

For another... have you asked him? I'm betting he'll be the one with the most accurate answer on this particular subject.

[makingmyway]

It became a habit when we were traveling on the road. Even with places with a bed it saved room and money, so we kind of just got used to it.

[ That’s the story he’s sticking with, even if they had been apart for quite a while but still fell back into that routine as easily as breathing. ]

I…have definitely not asked him. I’m not even sure if it’s something he’d want to do.

[charmperson]

Understandable. My friends and I have had some rather cozy nights on the road out of necessity.

[Tryst is sure it's totally necessary and convenient, Dorian. Sure. Yup. That checks out.]

That is a good point actually.

Hmm.

Ah! I think I have an idea how you could figure out if he would want to.

[makingmyway]

[ It definitely is, absolutely yup. Nothing suspicious or anything about that. ]

Really? How?

[charmperson]

Ask him.

[makingmyway]

[ ………… ]

It’s embarrassing though.

[ How dare you suggest healthy communication, Tryst. ]

[charmperson]

Despite the expression, no one's ever actually died of embarrassment.

Look, I get it. A lot of my clients were awfully shy about asking for what they wanted to start with. But things go so much better when you're honest about what you want.

[makingmyway]

I suppose so. Though I feel that clients making a request is a bit different from asking your best friend to kiss you.

[charmperson]

Given my line of work, not all that different.

The best friend thing does complicate things. So much that could go wrong. But so much more that could go right.

[makingmyway]

It’s the things that could go wrong that really worry me.

[charmperson]

All right. Let's do some basic calculations here, darling.

What's the worst that could happen? The nightmare scenario?

[makingmyway]

The worst thing that could happen?

Things would get too awkward between us that we couldn't even be friends anymore.

[ Dorian is definitely a "glass half empty" kind of person. ]
