TDM 003: #BEACHBUMS

I. BEACH Welcome arrivals, new and old! The skies on Erku may be perpetually gray, but the weather has taken a sudden turn to summertime heat. Fortunately, soaring temperatures have chased away more of the strange fog that conceals so much of the island, unveiling a charming, sandy cove dotted here and there with rustic love shacks. These shabby little lean-tos are dusty and sparse, but they provide everything one (or two, wink wink) might need for a little relief from the sun. Just don’t wander too far... that fog has memory-loss properties. II. DRINKS The 'bots are very apologetic about the whole fog incident, and they are trying to get on the new arrivals' good sides by giving out fancy drinks. Of course, they still haven't mastered the art of making things properly, so each drink has a little something... extra. Geloso: Has a slightly bitter, yet refreshing herbal taste... and it will make you feel inexplicably envious of virtually anything, to a petty degree! Be it someone else’s shoes or their incredibly muscular physique, you’re jealous enough to tell them about it! Colpito: Fruity and sweet like candy. If you drink this, you will feel hopelessly infatuated with the very next person who catches your eye! Vivace: Delightfully tart, with a flavor somewhere between citrus and raspberry. This summery drink will fill you with bubbly energy. Whether you’re feeling flirty or just mischievous and playful, you’ve never felt more alive! Verace: Creamy, earthy, and a little nutty - the flavor is hard to describe, but delicious. After drinking this, you’ll feel strangely compelled to spill something you’ve been keeping a secret, no matter how incriminating or embarrassing. Conoscere: The robots are especially excited about this flavor! They’ve heard organic beings enjoy chocolate, and hope you like their first attempt (it’s a little bitter, but it is chocolatey). Those who drink this will feel incredibly confident and sensual. Better yet, if you share it with a partner - which the 'bots encourage you to do - you’ll find that every touch is enhanced, and every sensation is shared between the two of you. A lucky few may even be able to sense one another’s thoughts! III. SNACKS Lo! As you ask, the Augur shall provide. Thanks to the efforts of your organic predecessors in restoring the planet’s Eros energy, edible fishes and seaweeds have returned to the ponds and the shores of Erku. If you fancy yourself savvy to basic survival skills, why not fashion up a fishing rod and catch yourself dinner? Just be careful if you happen to hook one of the octopus creatures from the deeper waters - they can be quite forward with their tentacles! Or, if primitive angling isn’t in your repertoire, you can always trade some credits for a tasty catch from one of the food stalls along the coast. Most stalls are manned by 'bots, but there’s nothing stopping an enterprising arrival from setting up shop. No credits? No problem! The robots have also provided a bit of entertainment, and any volunteers to man the kissing booth, get dunked in the wet t-shirt dunk tank, or grill up some fish - among other opportunities - will find credits automatically loaded onto the payment app of their bracelet devices. The 'bots are recruiting especially hard for participants to work in the gloryhole tent! IV. SPARKLES As dusk descends, the white sands of the beach suddenly come alive with glittering lights. It’s as if the darkened waters have carried a thousand shining stars from the depths of the sea to the shores of the cove. In actuality, each little twinkle is a bioluminescent plankton or jellyfish! Feel free to wade among them and admire their shine; even the sting of the jellies won’t hurt you... though they do pack a different punch. The tentacles of the jellyfish elicit a powerful aphrodisiac response, which gets the heart racing and the blood pumping for an intimate touch. The effects come on within a matter of minutes, and last for a few hours. Only time will relieve the symptoms, but a partner will help to make it more bearable. ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● N A V I G A T I O N

There's a small, encouraging noise from deep in Heero's throat as Duo sucks at his skin, his breath shaking slightly from the newness and the intensity of that particular sensation. It's enough to make him squirm just slightly, his hips rocking against Duo's as pushes up that clinging white t-shirt and exposes more of that pale skin. It's strange how hot his body feels despite the chill of ocean water evaporating off his skin and clothes. He wonders if Duo feels the same, or if Heero is only imagining the heat from the other boy's skin as his palms skim along Duo's back.

At first, Heero says nothing in response to Duo's praise - answering with just a glance of blue eyes that quickly skirt away again. It isn't as if he did anything to earn this body, he thinks. It was something that was forced on him, just like his training.

But then, it isn't a bad thing if Duo finds him attractive.

Heero's head dips, and he shifts back until he can press his lips to the bared skin of Duo's chest. Then, quiet but earnest, "I like your body more."

my desire to not give duo body issues vs. this

[spacerat]

There's a reason Duo can't keep his hands off Heero, and it only partially has to do with jellyfish. He can't actually see his chest like this right now - but he can press his warm hands against it, fingers spread over his pecs.

Then Heero says he likes his body more, which gets Duo's cheeks turning red - more red than the rocking against his erection had.

"I mean... okay, yeah."

Duo's just some skinny kid from L2. Heero may not be god tier status, but he feels like of the two of them, someone lucked out more. Duo doesn't hate how he looks by any stretch of the imagination. But he knows he's a little short, a little skinnier, that his ribs show too easily when he's not getting enough to eat.

But Heero said he likes him, and Duo's not about to tell him no. Seeking to distract from that line of thought, Duo looks down at Heero instead.

[heeroics]

They're all just skinny kids from the colonies, aren't they? Heero never thought of himself as much different from the rest of them, a mad scientist's genetic experiments aside. Thanks to that tampering, he's always had more muscle than looked natural on a teenager; even now, it's almost like he's still growing into his body.

Duo is much closer to what Heero imagines a fit teenager should look like: slim hips and lithe muscle, his skin scattered here and there with just a few scars. Maybe Duo gets a little too thin sometimes - now included, perhaps - but Heero doesn't think a hint of ribs detracts from the rest of him. Certainly not right now, with Heero languidly kissing his way down Duo's chest like he's already decided to prove he'd meant what he said with his mouth.

When he slides a little lower in that space between Duo's legs and licks over a nipple, Heero tastes the briny seawater on Duo's skin - but that's secondary to the rise and fall of the other boy's chest beneath his lips with each breath.

[spacerat]

Heero is a good distraction from the negative kind of thoughts he can tend towards. He's been enjoying this; he'd rather keep enjoying it and not let his own brain sour the experience.

And Heero's very quick to make it hard to think about anything other than the feel of his mouth on his skin, especially when he licks over a nipple. Duo sucks in a sharp breath, heel digging into the wet sand a little with a splash of water accompanying it.

"Do that again?" He's learning some things, lets test them out.

[heeroics]

Blue eyes flick up at the sound of Duo's little gasp, a hint of hesitance in them at first - is it good or bad when Duo makes a sound like that, when his whole body tenses up and he plants his feet in the sand? - but fortunately, Duo has always been one to make his opinions quite clear.

"Okay," Heero breathes softly, the corner of his lips quirking upwards into a smirk on a wave of self-satisfaction. It's such a small thing, but a job well done is one of the very few things that Heero has ever been allowed to take pleasure in.

He'd like to keep it up, and besides there's an ache between his legs and a heady desire for more to further encourage him when Heero's lips return to Duo's skin, feeling out the shape of that sensitive little nub when it hardens and perks beneath his tongue. Heero leans in to kiss it, sucking gently while a hand sweeps down to Duo's hips, tugging at the waistband of the other boy's shorts with rather sudden conviction.
