Bridge & Xander's Quarters [Newtech City, 2023]

[bridge_carson]

So, the Carson household (to use the term loosely, since it's definitely not a house and not really even an apartment to be honest) is now officially one with dual-income, no kids. Well, unless the new-and-improved, now-in-more-locations-than-ever-before Fandom weirdness struck again the way it did a couple of days ago.

Part of Bridge is actually kind of disappointed it skipped him. Not that he's gonna admit that.

"I miss having space," he comments randomly. Of course, his dorm room hadn't been bigger than their present quarters... but then, he'd practically moved out of the dorms in all but name only long before he'd actually left Fandom.

"I accept that challenge, and look forward to proving you right."

"Then let's not waste any time on getting started with that..." Bridge grins, leaning down to give Xander a kiss before working his way further downwards.

[needsaparrot]

"Time is a terrible thing to waste," Xander agrees, not entirely coherently.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge would reply to that, only his mouth is rather busy with the whole... working his way down thing. With a few detours involving Xander's skin and Bridge's tongue.

[needsaparrot]

"A waist is a terrible thing to mind..."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge looks up at that. "I could stop?" he suggests innocently.

[needsaparrot]

"I thought you were gonna distract me from the puns?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"I thought you were being literal!" Because that's *so* likely when it's Xander, really.

[needsaparrot]

"I don't mind you doing any damn thing you want to my waist."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"So noted," Bridge says, diving back into the task at hand.

[needsaparrot]

"Except - ha - that!" Xander gasps, twitching with laughter as Bridge's hair trails over a particularly ticklish spot.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Like hearing you laugh," Bridge protests, momentarily forgetting that his mouth ought to be doing things other than talking presently.

[needsaparrot]

"And yet you want to distract me from the puns." Not that he's not doing a good job of that 'cause yeah.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"S'different when I'm the one making you laugh," Bridge insists. He's also kind of partial to being the one to make Xander make other kinds of noises as well.

[needsaparrot]

"You always make me laugh," Xander answers, reaching down to muss Bridge's hair.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Which makes *Bridge* laugh. "Love you," he murmurs, then goes back to the task of making Xander forget about puns. And possibly making Xander make some of those non-laughing but still definitely happy noises.

[needsaparrot]

Oh, there's no possibly about it.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

And, yeah, again with the Bridge would probably be feeling pretty smug if not for the fact that he's currently busy. Mostly right now he's concerned about what'll happen if he does that with his tongue.

[needsaparrot]

Interesting, if not entirely unfamiliar things, that's what.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Which is, hey, pretty much what Bridge was going for with that.

[needsaparrot]

As far as Xander's concerned, Bridge can not only keep doing that, he could probably resign from SPD and have an incredibly lucrative future career of just doing that for the rest of his life.

...As long as he's only doing that for Xander. Which probably means Xander needs to pick up a second job.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

And there's a part of Bridge that'd be all for that, because making Xander happy makes *him* happy (and not just in the sense that there's this whole psychic-feedback thing, though that certainly doesn't hurt the matter). But if Xander were working two jobs then there might not be *time* for that and as far as Bridge is concerned that would be a terrible, terrible thing.

[needsaparrot]

There is that. And also there is that. Boy HOWdy, is there that.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Which was, well. The point of the entire exercise and all. So again with the would-be being smug if he weren't currently concentrating on more immediate matters, like post-mission cleanup. Of a sort.

[needsaparrot]

"Someday we'll have to actually try having sex on the bed," Xander says with a hiccupy laugh.
