There's one in particular, but I'm trying not to think about it.

Oh? Sounds like you need someone to work up a sweat in there.
Timothy Laughlin, that really wounds me. Are you calling me spoiled? I spent months in the army fixing up guns, cars, and leaky faucets when we had 'em. I'm handier than you think.
Though it is encouraged to hire someone who knows what the hell they're doing when it comes to renovations. I take it you don't trust the staff.
If the staff cared about this place, I wouldn't have to be the one fixing it. They're too busy cooking up some new horrors for us, I'm sure. And I like doing it. I can't sit around by the pool all day, I need something to do.
Yeah? You like what you're picturing? Think I can make that happen for you.
Fair enough. But how 'bout this - I'll help you fix up the pews and when it's all said and done, you spend a weekend by the pool. Clothing optional after dark.
I've been there a lot, when I'm not at the chapel. There's a fireplace, and some big, cozy chairs. I'll show you around. I can sit on your lap and read to you about the sixties.
[ Honey. That's new. And at first, it strikes Tim as odd. He can hear it in Hawk's voice and it sounds comfortable, sweet, thick with affection. Almost domestic.
He feels more vulnerable than he did taking a picture of his bare ass, but it's a good feeling. Rejuvenating, like the first warm day of spring, reminding you what the sun feels like on your skin. ]

[with him, which goes unsaid.]
no subject
Date: 2024-07-05 04:14 am (UTC)You want to spend the weekend with me?
[ 'Where people can see?' being the question underneath the question, but this is nice. He doesn't want to ruin it by pushing too far. ]
no subject
Date: 2024-07-05 04:20 am (UTC)Yeah, Skippy, I do. This place is a hell of a lot nicer than Rehoboth Beach - might as well start treating it that way.
no subject
Date: 2024-07-05 04:26 am (UTC)Okay. That sounds like a fair trade. A weekend by the pool, with you. I'll have to find some swim trunks.
What do you want to do if it rains?
no subject
Date: 2024-07-05 04:30 am (UTC)I said optional for a reason. Skinny-dipping in private isn't a crime, is it?
Hadn't thought about that. There's an indoor one somewhere, but it's not really the same. Raincheck, then.
And maybe we take that trip to the library after all instead. There's a fireplace in there, last I heard. Cozy.

Date: 2024-07-05 04:42 am (UTC)Yeah? Sounds like we could be there awhile. I'll bring something to keep our appetites down. And maybe some wine.
[a mini picnic. sort of. basically a date, even if he's still gonna lock the door so they aren't interrupted.]
no subject
Date: 2024-07-05 04:47 am (UTC)Maybe in the library.
[ Grinning and blushing and kicking his feet!! ]

Date: 2024-07-05 05:24 am (UTC)Mm. Got that one down.
And the pool?
no subject
Date: 2024-07-05 05:32 am (UTC)If we're alone. Sounds fun.
[ Just because he wants to be out doesn't mean he's an exhibitionist. The masses don't need the dirty details. ]
Did you know these things take pictures?
no subject
Date: 2024-07-05 05:37 am (UTC)You know, sometimes this place has a way of giving you what you want. I'm willing to bet we'll be on our own for awhile.
What, the...phones? Something you'd like to run by me, Mr. Laughlin?
no subject
Date: 2024-07-05 05:40 am (UTC)Maybe. Are you alone?
no subject
Date: 2024-07-05 05:43 am (UTC)Yeah. Iām in my room.

Date: 2024-07-05 05:49 am (UTC)Do you want to come to mine later?

Date: 2024-07-05 02:01 pm (UTC)Yeah, I wanna come to yours. Christ. Do I get to touch this time?

Careful not to trip on it.
