No I didn't.

[ he did. ]

[transmit]

I'll find you work here.

[ nepotism speed run. ]

[oversea]

[ help

he leans in to give him a kiss... trying to soothe the nerves... ]

They already seem to not like us that much.

[ because they have been annoying and pda ]

[transmit]

What are you going to do if I need an assistant?

[ this is said in same way someone would say

this is cheating? you would allow this?? ]

[oversea]

Will you need an assistant?

[ he feels like elysium will somehow know the answer regardless of already starting the job or not... for some reason... ]

[transmit]

I could…




I could be your boss.

[ wait. he's starting to like the idea of this. ]

[oversea]

[ HELP ]

Isn't this what they call a power imbalance?

[transmit]

It's not a power imbalance when we're in a lab?

[ gently

starts backing thorns against a wall ]

I distinctly remember someone enjoying being called capitan.

[oversea]

[ they are the most annoying people alive

thorns looks away. the ceiling is interesting... ]

I don't recall that.

[ okay ]

[transmit]

I can remind you.

[ kabedons… and leans in close. ]

Are you embarrassed? ¿Mi capitan?

[ thorns still has that in him?? ]

[oversea]

[ he is... annoying.

unfortunately thorns is attractive to that. he glances back at him. ]

Shouldn't I be calling you something now?

[transmit]

[ hehe…

well. isn't that up to thorns? elysium gazes back at thorns, and then—captures his mouth.

his. ]

[oversea]

[ the way the people who work here are likely wondering where they went off to.

thorns is not thinking about anything like that though. he kisses back eagerly, showing that they once again do not respect power inbalances. ]

[transmit]

[ elysium is both hr and his boss good luck filing any complaints

there is the sound of a door opening and rapidly closing… they are doing wonders for their reputation here, as all that does is encourage him to press against thorns more insistently. ]

[oversea]

You scared someone off.

[ he sounds more amused than anything though. he wraps his arms around his neck, keeping him close. all this because they got worried they might not be able to be next to each other 24/7. ]

[transmit]

Is that how you talk to your boss?

[ yes

but he nips at him anyway. he legitimately has no excuse for anything when he's at least there half the time when kal'tsit would reprimand thorns, so he even knows how much worse it could be. but maybe… just maybe… he can domesticate him?

lmao ]

[oversea]

[ good luck

at least they assured it that no one else is going to come here, so he presses more closely against him. ]

Are you going to do something about it?

[transmit]

Right.

[ They go from seconds away from an extremely NSFW make out to Elysium pulling back entirely. ]

Let's see what work we can find for you. I do think there are certain parts of my job that could be faster having a second person around.

[ granted

that second person isn't constantly distracting him, but they'll cross that bridge when it matters. ]

[oversea]

Uh huh...

[ thorns really isn't sure about this, but he won't argue. elysium has helped him with lab work with no problems, thorns is just unsure of how viable this is as an actual job to keep him busy full time... ]

[transmit]

[ is watching elysium not a full-time job…?

but he seems a little put out that thorns hadn't protested that action more…… so he kisses him again and withdraws just as quickly, looking at him expectantly. ]

[oversea]

[ he just looks at him.



leans in and kisses him back? ]

[transmit]

[ thorns………… you are so smart.




they are back where they started because he just pulls him into a hug. he is… so cute? sooooo cute. it's the same kind of feeling one gets when their pet accomplishes a trick. wow! ]

[oversea]

[ the others are still waiting for them and yet. here they are.




there is eventually some knocking. ]

[transmit]

… Tch.

[ Tch!!!!!!!! ]

Will you wait for me here?

[oversea]

Yeah.

[ he has no choice to... he hates it here.

time to be hachiko. ]
