maybe he outran ............ THE SEASONS THEMSELVES!!! hahaha
now they're catching up to him for Revenge(TM) 3:o

hey, left field but can you advise me on something too? namely, dating a virgin >o>! (i know, don't say it)

[wordiness]

you're dating a what, now?
what advice are you looking for? i'm not sure if you know this about me, but i haven't been a virgin in a long time.

[ikols]

billy i stg sometimes
i know YOU aren't, gods above
what i mean to say is, at ONE point you were dating one
i don't want to make it into something sexual if he isn't ready, and i don't want the sexual part to be like ... me taking something away from him, because i KIND OF convinced him not to wait for his boring boyfriend back home and give me a try 03:)
only, like, it worked

and he's actually very nice

[wordiness]

tbh teddy and i were both virgins, so i'm not really sure any advice i'd have would apply well to your situation, you know? we discovered our sex life together.

i guess what i CAN say is that if this is something he's anxious about, treat it with some of the consideration and gravity he's clearly giving it. not all of it, maybe, because you don't want to make him MORE anxious. show him you understand it's important, that his first time is important to you specifically, if that makes sense?

honestly, i think you'll do fine. you nudge boundaries a little sometimes to see if they're firm, but you always respect them, and you're pretty intuitive about what people need from you. just listen to what he's saying, pay attention to his body language, check in often, and in this case, it's best not to poke at any sexual boundaries he's setting.

idk if any of that helps.

has he been aware of his sexuality for long? like how much does he know about sex between men?

[ikols]

ok cool, i'm doing all that but i wanted to check with you it was actually the right thing
thanks, jimminy!

he got flustered kissing me at a picnic, i don't think he's gotten farther than youtube tutorials for the basics and is skittish because of his lack of experience
should i show him my drawer of sex toys, do you think? so he can choose one?

[wordiness]

i'm much cuter than jiminy cricket.

no. no, no, do NOT do that, omg.
idk if he's the type to talk to someone about it, but if he is, you can let him know he can message me or meet up if he has questions or anything. i'm harmless-looking and i've both topped and bottomed and more importantly, i'm not his tease of a godly boyfriend(?).

[ikols]

i'm not a tease! i would never have flirted if i wasn't willing to bang him on the spot!
i don't want you talking to him, you'll tell him i'm a Sexy Dangerous Bitch or something and while that may be 100% true he'll swoon afresh and start fretting even more than he is already 3:/

[wordiness]

what i'll tell him is that you're a leggy nerd and a big softie.

[ikols]

i'm a scary ancient pagan god

[wordiness]

those things aren't mutually exclusive.

[ikols]

listen, he thinks i'm cool so don't tell him i'm soft
this is unprecedented

[wordiness]

sorry, he's going to find out you're soft at some point.
who is this guy, anyway? how'd you meet him?

[ikols]

tim drake, son of bruce wayne
he's the vigilante called robin but i didn't tell you that

[wordiness]

ooh, i'm gonna look him up, he sounds fun.
is he bird-themed?

[ikols]

he's a little red and black bird that leaps over buildings in leather
it's all very "i want to devour him whole", honestly

[wordiness]

once tommy and i find a place, you'll have to bring him over for dinner.

[ikols]

ANYWAY
what happened when you went home, what was going on? give the goss!

[wordiness]

nothing you don't already know. i think. i told you about my trip to krakoa the last time i was here, didn't i?

[ikols]

tell me again

[wordiness]

mom was murdered on krakoa at some point during the hellfire gala. it looked like grandfather at first, but she resurrected herself and it turned out it was part of a convoluted spell to give mutantkind a kind of afterlife/waiting room.
and you know i don't use convoluted lightly, given how familiar with various kinds of magic i am these days.

it wound up being a good thing at the end, of course, but people got hurt in the process, and tommy had to see her body. it was such a mess. i love her, but i'm still SO frustrated with the whole thing.

[ikols]

[ "She resurrected herself", you go gurl. Wanda is still being Wanda, then. ]

bit of a vacation to be back here

[wordiness]

it would be if teddy was here, too. every time we get five minutes to ourselves, it seems like some kind of crisis pops up.

[ikols]

i wonder why he never gets pulled into this realm, it's rather odd
thor comes and goes, he always seems to forget but then that's par for the course
oh, if you need your old room it still exists, but the kid now lives with me so leave nothing of real import in the apartment

[wordiness]

bc for some reason, this dimension hates my marriage.
is thor here or gone this time?

i bullied tommy into moving out of the place he was assigned with david, so we're going to find something. i don't think it was good for him to stay in the same apartment as his ex.

[ he feels very Soft about loki keeping his room, though.. ]

[ikols]

i have no idea what thor or the other avengers are up to, the most contact i have with them is harassing tony stark to ensure he isn't dead
he's such a dickhead
why do i bother making sure those morons are sane and useful

tommy is such a social butterfly right now
