Thanks for that, by the way. [He'll setting on the bed once he's there, setting aside the shirt bundle and immediately letting his hand glide over her stomach while he hums in thought.]
...so. Figured it'd make sense to try for something in the same row, at least. I was...kind of thinking it wouldn't be too terrible to try a temperature change?
[A good Beck. He can't help but grin while letting his fingers continue dancing their way up toward her ribs.]
Neither have I, but hey...that'll make us even for the handcuffs last week, won't it? Something new and interesting. [A beat.] ...there's a bunch of ice cubes in my shirt but they probably won't melt too fast.
[He's using one hand to already reach for an ice cube but the other, the one she's grabbing, moves easily over her breast because surprise, it's week 4 and he still really likes those.]
I'd be into it again if you were ever interested. Coincidentally that's on my card, too, but...figured we'd try something new.
One thing at a time...or two, in this case. Hah. [Shut up, Junpei. But he's busy tugging at her bra strap to indicate that this should go before the ice cube is gently lowered onto her abdomen and dragged upward in a line.]
Trust me to go wherever this leads us? [Is his thought to maybe eat her out while sucking on an ice cube? Yeah, probably, but it's fine. It's chill, even, even while he traces the cube higher up to draw under the opposite breast from the one his hand caresses for the time being.]
[It's maybe a little crass but he's also pulling back and casually wiping his mouth with the heel of his hand, licking his lips a little even while he gives her a soft grin.]
I think I've never had a bad experience with you, if you really want to know. Pretty sure the rest of the ice melted in my shirt though. [Luckily most of it was used because Junpei's a menace. He's shifting a little to crawl his way up the bed to sit next to her.] Thoughts?
You were a very active participant in all of this. I don't think it's so bad to boost your ego a bit. [But he's planting a brief, sloppy kiss to her head before settling down again.] I'm not sure I'd do ice again either but my tongue is yours whenever you want.
[A pause. And he just...laughs awkwardly.] That could've been worded a lot better but you know what I'm saying.
[She’s heading towards his room partway through Thursday; when she sees the open door, she still knocks lightly, not wanting to come in without invitation.]
[She’s trying not to get too visibly emotional, since she’s sure he has enough to worry about right now, but - when she comes in and looks at him, there’s something in her expression. It’s echoed in her voice when she speaks.]
A lot and not a lot all at the same time. [He pulls his legs closer into his blanket nest if she wants to sit on the couch with him.] Edelgard and Nikkari got the worst of it, I think, with the slashes and Nikkari's broken leg. [He's currently just drained for the rest of the week and has a hard time staying awake.]
We fucked up, Beck. [And that's the first and most important part.]
Because we got a game over. That only happens when you fuck something up, and we didn't even get anything out of the room except for the audio clip before we started playing.
