slipping away with Ragnar

[thewidewideworld]

{From here}

Sinric leads Ragnar into the bathrooms, glancing around to see if anyone is around before slipping into one of the stalls and closing the door behind them.

"Do you want me to paint your prick with my lips or lift my skirts and take me standing?" He asks with a list-filled purr.

Sinric frowns and picks up the hard stick of bread. "It is?"

Jay chuckles and pours them each a drink. "They go better with some beer."

[bigarmy_strangepants]

"So let's have some," Ragnar says, pouring beer from the pitcher for each of them.

[thewidewideworld]

Sinric relaxes a little with as he drinks, the tension draining out of him. "So do you build motorcycles for a living?" He asks Jay softly.

Jay shrugs, hiding his expression over the rim of his glass. "It's part of what I do here."

[bigarmy_strangepants]

"He builds and repairs all kinds of machines, of metal and...

He looks at Jay.

"The parts that make machines think, what are they called?"

[runningred]

"Computers. Usually." Jay shrugs, "What makes the drones think is mystery to me. They're alive more that just thinking."

"They must feel too?" Sinric asks softly, looking to Ragnar. "If they like music, they must feel."

[bigarmy_strangepants]

Ragnar scratches his beard. "What do people feel with, as opposed to thinking?" Ragnar says. "Perhaps the drones have two things, too."

Of course Sinric is right -- they are machines that feel, not just think. How else could they be so furious?

[runningred]

"They feel, and think." Jay agrees. "You saw Lock's sculpture, Ragnar.

Sinric's eyes go wide. "They carve sculptures too?"

[bigarmy_strangepants]

"He built it from metal parts," Ragnar says. "But yes, it was definitely a sculpture, not a machine."

[thewidewideworld]

"I would like very much to see that." Sinric glances to Jay. "If it is permitted?"

Jay shrugs and smiles, "You're both welcome down in the workshop any time."

[bigarmy_strangepants]

"We're going down there anyway after food, to sing to the little feral ones," Ragnar says. "We can look at the sculpture, too."

[runningred]

On cue, the rats arrive carrying trays of pizza, the smell warm and spicy.

"Hope you like this," Jay says, lifting out a slice. "The spice comes from an area of north west Africa. Spent a lot of time in western Africa in the couple of years."

[bigarmy_strangepants]

Ragnar takes a slice and starts eating. "Oh, yum!" is all he manages at first, as he breaks for a swig of beer. He does look over to Sinric, though, to see if he enjoys it, too

[thewidewideworld]

Sinric giggles, covering his mouth. "The spices are very warming. Pleasant but warming."

[bigarmy_strangepants]

"Heating your blood up again from the inside?" Ragnar grins. "For later, in our bath?"

[thewidewideworld]

Sinric lets out a soft purr, very keen on the idea now that he's relaxing more. "I like the sound of that."

Jay gives the pair of them a gentle smile. "You don't have to come down to the garage now. You're welcome in the workshop any time."

[bigarmy_strangepants]

"Let us just sing a few stanzas of the havamál, and look at the sculpture," Ragnar says. "After that, the bath will be even better, and we'll have sated our curiosity before getting sated in other ways."

[runningred]

"Talk like that you're tempting me to find company of my own this evening." Jay grins.

Sinric seems to stiffen a moment as if expecting the man to ask to join them but them relaxes.

[bigarmy_strangepants]

"That won't take you long," Ragnar says. "We'll keep our fingers crossed. Unless we're crossing other things."

[runningred]

Jay chuckles. "One of the great things about this place - it never takes long to find enjoyable company."

Sinric cocks his head. "You have lovers here? If it is not too impertinent a question."

[bigarmy_strangepants]

"Yes, tell us all," Ragnar grins, joining in with Sinric's curiosity.

[runningred]

Jay gives him a playful grin. "A gentleman doesn't kiss and tell but yes, I've been very fortunate here. There are a lot of good people here."

[bigarmy_strangepants]

"There are!" Ragnar says, grinning widely as he kisses Sinric's cheek.

[thewidewideworld]

Sinric giggles warmly, his cheeks flushing a little. "I too have been very fortunate."

[bigarmy_strangepants]

"We do our best," Ragnar says.

[runningred]

"And it seems to work perfectly for you." Jay smiles. "I've seen a lot of open relationships here, but you guys seem to have a good balance."

Sinric looks a little startled. "You have seem us?"
