"Hey," Bridge looks back up at Xander and flashes him a grin before focusing back on the matter at hand. "So, you know, I don't know whether this is an alien thing, or a Fandom thing, but it's pretty much gotta be one of those, 'cause I know you wouldn't just up and quit on us, right?" he says earnestly. "I mean, you've got no reason to, what with hey, number one fan, right here. Seriously. Pretty much spoiled for anyone else ever now." And, okay, yeah, he feels pretty ridiculous, doing this whole... thing with the direct address and the pronouns but at this point he's not about to discount the possibility that it might actually work.

[needsaparrot]

Okay, admittedly that stirring is coming from Xander's badly-contained laughter, but it's a start, right?

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Well, sure! "Should I keep going?"

[needsaparrot]

That wasn't a giggle. "...Sure."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Right, okay. So as I was saying. Number one fan! And I know you can do this, I've seen you do it lots of times! And you know how I said before how there's lots of not-just-sex things I'd still like to do? Well, there's lots of sex things I'd like to try too, and they sort of hinge on your co-operation here." At the very least, it seems to be bringing Xander's *mood* up, which, Bridge feels, makes it worth it.

[needsaparrot]

Xander stops laughing into his pillow long enough to tap Bridge on the top of his head. "Dork."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge grins up at him again. "Yep," he nods in agreement.

[needsaparrot]

Xander tugs lightly on his ear. "C'mere, dork."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge c'meres. Theres. Is now back to being face-to-face with Xander. That.

[needsaparrot]

"You will never not turn me on."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Was that implied too, in the vows?" Bridge asks with a grin.

[needsaparrot]

"You have to read between the lines a little, but yeah." Xander nods and presses close against him.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"I can do that," Bridge says. "Sometimes. And then sometimes I miss stuff even when it's right. There. But that's usually sarcasm-related."

[needsaparrot]

Speaking of missing stuff that's right. There... But to be fair, even Xander doesn't notice immediately, distracted as he is by going in for another kiss.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Well to continue with the whole being fair thing, kisses are nice, and pretty immediate, and...

Ooh. Hi.

"I think it worked!"

[needsaparrot]

Huh? "Huh?"

Oh. "Ohhh!"

Mmhhmm. "Mmhhmm."

Sometimes telepathy is a little superfluous, yeah.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

A little, but Bridge isn't exactly complaining. In fact, he's pretty much doing the opposite of complaining at the moment. Which is to say he's doing his best to encourage more of the same sort of reaction.

[needsaparrot]

And -- almost as if fifteen years ago and a universe to the left, a flower bedecked furniture-shilling island had just hove into view -- there's suddenly plenty more of the same reaction. "I...will never tell anyone about the pep talk if you won't. Truth spells don't count."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Are we *sure* you're not psychic now too?" Bridge asks. "Because I was totally about to say that."

[needsaparrot]

"I dunno, were you totally about to say hold on a sec and dive for the nightstand, too?" Xander asks, doing so.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Well... no," Bridge admits. "But only 'cause you're closer."

[needsaparrot]

"Fair point." You'd think Xander's return would be... well, as swift as you'd expect from somebody who was about to do something they hadn't been able to do for a week, but you'd be wrong. Ish. "....Bridge?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Present and accounted for."

[needsaparrot]

"Why is there an Ikea catalog in the lube drawer?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"I... have no idea?"
