Perhaps it would be a beneficial visit. There is a delightful 'mermaid' exhibit with land-dwellers wearing costumes and pretending to be merfolk. It is rather amusing to watch how they think of us.
It is dim in certain rooms with bioluminescent fish and jellies. I believe you could find it calming there.
..u getting a kick back for sending ppl there or something? working a part time job there? [You don't just do stuff like this without a reason, Jade...]
Not at all. I simply find their attempts at authentic merfolk amusing and feel that some peace and quiet in the dark might suit you. While it is not as nature-engulfing as a hike through the woods, it's quiet and less busy than many locations in the city.
We can all stand for some time alone to clear our minds.
[Idia should appreciate this… by which we mean he definitely won’t. A couple of weeks following their last face-to-face meeting, Floyd sends the other boy a message followed promptly by a call.
The attached photo is quite scandalous, but surely it can’t be as bad as that one misfire a few months back, right?]
Mngh… Ahh~
[Is that… moaning? At this ungodly hour? There’s no mistaking it; it’s definitely moaning and it’s definitely coming from Floyd’s number. Did he butt dial him? Call the wrong person? … No. No, Not at all.
Idia huffing as he slumps in his computer chair, a shake of his head to this all.] Wasn't even sure if you were meaning for me to get this. Or... that photo.
What you mean play? Like cybering? Eh, I mean, phone sex? Or you wanting me to show up somewhere? 'cause I'm busy. [He's not. Well, he is, because Idia always is. But he can be extra busy if it means avoiding Floyd.]
[But if he’s going to complain about it, then fine.
Floyd quickly switches to a video feed, revealing him hanging upside down and halfway falling off his bed. And, yes, he doesn’t have a shirt on. “Restless” doesn’t even begin to describe him right now.]
‘cause playing with you is fun. Duh.
[With a pout,]
There. See? I’m cuter now that you can see me, right?
I got more creativity in my little finger than you got in your entire body. [Idia grumbles back, questioning himself just wtf is he doing still on this call with Floyd. Then raising a brow on his side of the call as that video comes on.]
Surprised the blood isn't rushing to another head considering the call. [Idia sticking still to voice, not wanting to put on the video his side. Idia also doesn't get how he's 'fun' to Floyd.] You just think it's fun to annoy me, that's all.
[But Idia hasn't hung up yet, still grumpy on his side as he stares at Floyd's feed... but still there. Ok... ok... say for arguments sake...] What you even expecting from this? To just make a few sounds and think I would get off on that? [Heh,] Or you hoping I would tell you what to do?
[Godsdamnit... Floyd is looking cute. Fuck! Idia doesn't need to see Floyd like that! That's not fair! Siiiigh. He didn't want to be able to see Floyd like that. Or any from his world, but, well, that hasn't been going to plan, has it? Idia squeezing his eyes closed as he shoved a hand up through his hair roughly. Looking back to the screen.]
Oh yeah? Then no point in me staying on this call then, huh? Shouldn't you be entertaining me to make me wanna stay talking to you?
[Floyd bends his knees and taps his feet on the bed like a child about to start a tantrum. If Idia wants him to be cuter he’ll be cuter.]
Squidyyy…
[He still hasn’t figured out what gets Idia riled up exactly. Without the influence of drugs or whatever else, it’s difficult to know. But who doesn’t like moaning and whining?
A hand sneaks down his body and out of sight.]
Y’mean I’m not cute enough to be entertaining? That’s so meaaan…
I mean... it's a good start, [Idia's voice comes through the call, a slight tone to it, one that hadn't been there before but was leaking in now.] But know what would be cuter? Open your mouth and go 'ahhh', so your tongue is lolling out. [You know what? Fuck. Fuck it! It's already started, fuck it, may as well play it out.] I wanna see you look real cute.
[What's the chances Floyd wouldn't get what Idia is going for and it just comes across as stupid and silly instead?
