Yo! I'm not in right now. Leave me a message.

((OOC: Zell may show messages to Jim Hawkins. If you do not want Jim to see/know, then please let me know.))

[ That lip bite isn't fair. Moving his hand up to cup the side of Jim's face as he brushes his thumb under his lower lip. ]

You know what I mean. [ Trying to whine, but he's laughing instead. ] Stop being so distracting.

[rattlingthestars]

I'm not doing anything. [ Jim's laughing as he says it. He's not, but he knows what kind of effect it has on Zell anyway. ] Stop getting distracted.

[swatsflies]

You are. You are doing something! You're being you. [ It makes perfect sense to Zell, okay. Leaning in close to capture that lip between his own. He's far too gone to be able to not be distracted. He's doomed and pondering on the merits of dragging Jim down with him. Sliding his fingers through Jim's hair. ]

[rattlingthestars]

That's going to be pretty hard to stop! [ It makes zero sense, but Jim gets it anyway. He's also not the one complaining about being distracted, so he doesn't mind a break for making out in the wheelchair. Better than thinking about where they are.

It's a good thing there are no monsters on this floor, they'd be dead. ]

[swatsflies]

[ Tugging on Jim's lip. ]

Looks like I'll have to do something about it. [ Something like giving him a series of kisses in a row. He deepens each contact and lingers a little longer with each one. Moving both of his hands down Jim's back to cup his ass. Giving it a squeeze as he wonders if maybe they should test out how much weight the wheel chair could handle. ]

let me know if this needs to be changed \o/

[rattlingthestars]

[ They've checked enough of this floor, right? If something were going to eat them, it probably would've done it already?

(This is progress for Jim, in a way. Better mental health through makeouts!)

Jim wraps his arms around Zell's shoulders, holding on. It's a good thing, too, because a moment later he loses that cat like grace and sends it squeaking back a few inches. Jim tightens his grip on Zell's shoulders, but unless Zell thinks fast they're butting heads. ]

I wrote bad ending first but didn't like how it came out. Next time <3

[swatsflies]

[ In Zell's book, they were pretty much done and he has other things to check thoroughly. Like the contents of Jim's-

And then the chair going back interrupts where his brain was going and he moves his hands up immediately to steady his boyfriend. Moving his head back in time to let Jim's head catch him in the collarbone and chest area instead. That is not how you kiss someone, boyfriend. ]

Whoa! [ Keeping an arm hooked around him as he moves the other to grab the handle of the chair. It's like a glass of cool water be dumped on him. He's not quite cooled down, but it's enough to calm him down. ] Ready to go back to the other room?

jim is excluded from the head butt club i see how it is

[rattlingthestars]

[ It's still a little uncomfortable for Jim's nose, but not as badly as it would've been if they bumped heads. He reaches up a hand to rub it. That cooled Jim down, at least. ]

Ow.

[ He looks around the empty space that they've left to check and considers it for a moment before he shrugs one shoulder. ]

-Yeah. Said you had a plan right? Let's see it.

he's in a different head and butt club

[swatsflies]

[ Moving to press a kiss against Jim's nose. All better? Disengaging to turn the chair around. Offering up the crook of his elbow like a proper boyfriend. ]

We can start with this one.

[ Looking over at the hospital bed as he says it. Not really thinking about what his look could imply. Just going to lead Jim over to it once he's off the chair. ]

Let's do it.

[ Patting the bed. ] Pick a side, Stars.

bow chicka

[rattlingthestars]

[ Jim takes the arm with a beaming smile. It makes him think, just for a second, of dancing with Zell on his arm. Maybe some day.

Jim regards the bed for a moment before pointing to the one closer to the door. He doesn't flop on it, though, just pulls away from Zell for a moment. ]

I've got an idea, though.

<3

[swatsflies]

[ Zell starts investigating how the mattress is strapped down when Jim speaks. Perking up at the idea, as he looks over him. ]

Oh? What kind of idea? [ If it has anything to do with Jim in his arms or another way to enjoy themselves, then he's all for it. Moving closer to the one he pointed out as he looks from it to his boyfriend and back again. His gaze may be lowering to the rear view if it's available. ]

[rattlingthestars]

What do you think about a tent?

[ Not an actual tent, apparently, but Jim's investigating the other mattresses in the room while Zell manages his. The rear view is briefly available as Jim leans over to check out the straps. ]

-Or a fort, I guess. It'd be easier if we had more blankets.

[swatsflies]

[ If only he had his tablet out to capture the booty. Coming up behind him to put a hand on that butt. ]

I still have that fitted sheet. Also that long, blue dress Zack was going to sneak into Kunsel's things.

[ Giving the bum a light pat as he looks towards the door. It'll mean locating his bag. ]

Can hook them to the furniture in the bigger room.

[rattlingthestars]

Sounds good.

[ Jim only jumps a little at the pat. You'd think he would be used to that by now, but he's still just a little disbelieving that someone is doing that to him. ]

Let's do it.

[swatsflies]

[ Whoops. Guess he'll just have to keep doing it until Jim gets it in his head that he has that pull on someone.

He does move his hand up to Jim's lower back at the jump though. ] Want to grab this one?

[ Patting the mattress. ] We can cover the floors with them to make it more comfortable.

[ He heads over to the other bed in the room. Snagging the mattress and moving to the bed further away to stack it on top. How many can Zell handle? If they weren't so awkward to cart around, probably more than two or three. ]

[rattlingthestars]

[ It'll probably never sink in all the way.

Jim shrugs and pull the mattress off, bringing it to Zell's pile instead. ]

We can carry them together.

[swatsflies]

[ His boyfriend is super cute! Giving a nod as he waits for Jim to pile it on, and then taking up the bottom corners closest to him. ] You sure you can handle it? [ He's teasing. They resemble gym mats, but don't seem to be as heavy. Once Jim takes up the other end, Zell will start moving backwards towards the door. ]

I'll trust you to tell me where to go. [ Reversing their previous visit together through the hospital. ]

[rattlingthestars]

I think I'll manage somehow. [ Jim's rolling his eyes a little at the teasing, but he's grinning, too. It wasn't too long ago that Zell wouldn't tease like that and he likes it. ] Careful, there's a chair. Left.

[ Jim's going to guide him accurately, even if he is a little tempted to guide Zell into a wall. He's not an angel.

As soon as they make it to the other room, he's dropping his end of the mattresses and dragging them out to form a comfortable bed. ]

[swatsflies]

[ Zell would have forgiven him after maybe a kiss and a little pay back. He follows instructions without any doubt, though. Keeping his attention squarely on his boyfriend or beyond him to make sure they really were alone. ]

We make a great team. [ Even if it's easy, Zell still has to celebrate it. Waiting until Jim has them all arranged before slinging an arm around him to give him a peck on the cheek. Then he's moving on to his stuff to grab out the sheet, dress, and the extra clothes he snagged for fabric parts. Returning to his side to hold them out. ]

I think I have binder clips and paper clips still.

[rattlingthestars]

Yeah, we do. [ He preens a little under Zell's arm, but turns his attention to the situation when he breaks away. A little rummaging in his disaster of a bag turns up nothing useful and he huffs in annoyance. ]

Think I've still got a couple of binder clips somewhere, plus the stick -

[ To prop up the middle! Jim's giving this the Very Serious attention it deserves. ]

When we get home, I'm we're going to do so much better than this.

[ He doesn't seem to realize what he just said. ]

[swatsflies]

Yeah, we definitely will. [ It takes a moment before it sinks in what Jim is saying. Watching Jim for a minute as he's likely doing the cute concentration face that Zell really adores as he processes the words. ]

When we get home. [ He repeats it with warmth in his words. Dumping supplies on a hospital bed. ]

[rattlingthestars]

[ Jim's eyebrows are indeed drawn together and his lip between his teeth as he pulls his own blanket up to the hospital bed's railing. He's not even looking at Zell until Zell repeats his own words back at him.

It takes a moment, but his head whips up and he meets Zell's eyes, if he's looking. ]

-Right.

[ ,He won't say anything else, it'll ruin the moment, but his heart's loud enough to make up for it. ]

[swatsflies]

[ And there is confirmation! Zell is going to forget helping the normal way and move over to stand behind Jim. Hooking his thumbs into his belt to give it a tug. ]

Right. [ Grinning as he repeats the word as confirmation. It's confirmation to let Jim know he's definitely okay with that. Home has already changed it's meaning from a place, to a person an inch or two shorter than he is. ]

With a lot more blankets?

[rattlingthestars]

Right.

[ Home is turning to look up at him with warmth shining in his eyes. ]

A lot more blankets. And... pillows. A mountain. [ Jim leans back into Zell, enjoying, as he always does, the warmth of his boyfriend at his back. ] We'll build it in front of the fire and stay there all night.

[ He casts a glance over their efforts, which seem pale and gray in light of what Jim's imagining for them. He's still warm, though, with Zell. ]

-But this is good too.

[swatsflies]

[ It's looks like this that reminds Zell just how lucky he is. Giving a content sigh as he feels Jim's weight against him. Sliding his hands around to rest on his stomach. Burying his face against Jim's neck, while he huffs a laugh. ]

And you'll read to me? [ Pressing his lips against the curve of his neck. ]

This is definitely good.

[ Even if he's not really looking at the whole picture. He's just zoomed in on Jim and how he filled the room with warmth just by being there. ]
