"That does not sound like a con to me, no."

"I mean, I've been busy over my years," says Theo. "Taking summons, going to school, that sort of thing."

"I'm sure you have. You must have all sorts of stories to tell."

"A few."

"Well, I'm not particularly tired right now, so you could tell me them in your room."

"I could," he agrees. "And you know, I don't actually get all that tired if I don't want to, so– it's mostly up to you how far it goes."

"Hmm, I do get tired so I might have to ask for a raincheck on some of those stories." He produces a key and opens the door.

In they go, then. "I'm sure I can divide them across several nights," assures Theo.

"Oh, that's nice, then we shan't be bored," he says, locking the door behind them and taking a seat on the edge of queen size bed.

Oh, how neat. Theo takes a seat too.

"Well we have a variety of activities if I turn out not to be a thrilling storyteller."

"Is that so? Do tell."

"We-ell, I'm again still not sure on the details of the local culture." He pauses and looks at Kaede's lips. "But we have a thing called kissing."

"Oh! What a coincidence, we also have this thing."

"Convenient. Practices may differ, though. Different cultures and all."

"Hmm, that's true. I think you should demonstrate how yours does it."

"Mm," he agrees. "Perhaps I should."

And so he does.

Oooh, Kaede likes Theo's culture's ideas on kissing very much!

Theo is pretty good at kissing.

He seems to think Kaede's pretty good at it too.

That's good! Kaede's got experience but not nearly as much as Theo does, naturally, so he's glad Theo appreciates it.

Now what if he puts a hand against Theo's chest and gently pushes him bedwards...?

Then bedward Theo will go, bringing Kaede to lie on top of him.

This does not impede kissing.

Oh no it very much does not, kissing will continue occurring.

Speaking of occurring, it occurs to Kaede Theo's wearing a shirt and he isn't, and this sounds like a horribly lopsided state of affairs.

It does, doesn't it! Now, would Kaede like to remove it or should it just disappear?

Removing it is loads of fun.

On the other hand, disappearing it is faster.

But removing it doesn't take all that long, and Theo might enjoy being stripped.

Well in that case.

Kaede slips his hands under Theo's shirt and starts pulling it up. His head accompanies this movement, and his lips start trailing up his stomach and chest as more of them is revealed.
