Iiiiit's Monday, and that means it's time for class!

[lucetimods]

Who: All the fine students of Luceti U!
What: IT'S TIME FOR COLLEGE, YO.
When: September 8 - 12th.
Where: All over "campus".
Summary: It's the first week of class for all you wonderful students, both new and old! Enjoy catching up with friends, trying to find your classes, engaging in all aspects of college life, and... let's not forget about the upcoming game.
Rating: PG-13 at best, guys. I know this is supposed to be college but if you're going to engage in the more... racy aspects of college life, take it off-comm!

This is the general catch-all log for the event. You know the drill by now. There's a separate log going up that will be used for Featherbook. Please feel free to use the two logs in tandem with one another. In fact, we encourage it!

[Teddy pauses at that, then raises his eyebrows as he leans forward, elbows on the table with both hands around the cup.]

Okay, same question, but applied to pumpkin pie.

[selfhelp]

Hah... a genius, that's who. If I met the person who invented pumpkin pie I would kiss them.

[Sluuuuurp. Oh god, it's too good.]

[halfnhalf]

Hmm. [Teddy leans forward a bit more, brows rising with amusement.] Even if they were a girl?

[selfhelp]

What, you think I wouldn't give a girl a platonic kiss in thanks for creating one of the greatest flavour combinations ever? You underestimate me.

[halfnhalf]

See, you've gotta be more specific. You know what people are going to think if you just say you're going to kiss a person.

[A small pause, and-] Would I get a kiss if I told you I invented it in my past life?

[selfhelp]

Sorry, I don't believe in reincarnation. Nice try, though.

[Like he has to barter for kisses anyway.]

[halfnhalf]

[Teddy gives a fake little pout as he leans back in his chair again. He knows he'll be getting many more kisses later, but he just had to try for one.]

You and your Jewishness. Kissblocked by beliefs.

[selfhelp]

Yeah, you'd think someone who spent a third of their life in Bible school would know better, too.

[Not that either of them are really the pinnacle of either religion.]

[halfnhalf]

If I practiced the song of the majority of my people, I wouldn't even be dating you now, you know. [He lifts his left hand and wiggles his fingers to show off his ring, the other hand moving to grab his latte again.] Much less this. [Aaaand sip.]

[selfhelp]

Touche. You sinful sodomite, you.

[Billy smiles anyway, because hey, he's definitely benefiting from Teddy's rather godless lifestyle, and he'll take being happily engaged to the love of his life over it any day of the week.]

[halfnhalf]

[Teddy smiles from under his cup, then reaches his foot out to let it nuzzle up against the side of Billy's, toes brushing up against the heel. Sodomite or not, he wouldn't trade what he has now for the world, not for God or anyone else.]

Hell yeah I am. [And after a bit of thought, Teddy glances up over the lid of the cup.] I can show you just how sinful of a sodomite I am when we get back to the dorm, too.

[selfhelp]

Mmhm. Is that before or after the medical examination, do you think?

[He nudges Teddy's foot back. He doesn't give a damn if they're a bit old to be playing footsies under the table like a couple of preteen kids with crushes- they have no such qualms about childishness, not after being together for this long.]

[halfnhalf]

Hmm... probably after. [He lifts his foot, giving Billy's a little caress just below the ankle.] I wanna make sure my doctor's in top shape during my examination.

[selfhelp]

[Billy shivers slightly at that- it isn't much, but it still feels good, and it's all too easy to envision what Teddy's thinking about. Yeah, this'll be good.]

Oh, so it's a med exam for you but I'm the one who has to be in good shape? Is that a new rule of medicine that I haven't heard of?

[halfnhalf]

Hey, I don't want my doctor to misdiagnose me just because he got thoroughly sodomized. [He lifts his brow, leaning forward with a little smirk.] Or do you want to practice that just in case?

[selfhelp]

[Billy snorts quietly, giving Teddy a nudge.]

Very tempting. I'm not so sure I'm ready to pass any tests this early into the semester, though.

[halfnhalf]

[Teddy gives a quiet chuckle at the nudge, then leans back in his chair again, taking another sip of his latte.]

Then I'll do it after the med exam. Our poor neighbors.

[selfhelp]

Oh god.

[Billy goes beat red at that, a little helplessly, and ducks his head; it's hard not to be loud when Teddy's doing... well. That. He's really good at it.]

Do I need to find a surgical mask and a couple of socks? I'd hate to make an enemy of the entire dorm on day 1.

[halfnhalf]

If that's what helps you sleep at night, babe.

[Casual sip, though his lips still turn up in an amused smile behind his cup. When it came to the parents, then yeah, Teddy wanted to be as quiet as possible when it came to the more intimate side of their relationship, lest he get kicked out of the only home he had left. But here, where other college students are probably getting it on too, and with Teddy not caring as much about what other people think as he used to? The thought of other people hearing what they're up to doesn't make him feel quite as embarrassed as Billy here.]

[selfhelp]

Pretty sure what we do is the polar opposite of a sleep aid.

[But hey, at least it's fun?]

[halfnhalf]

Hey, didn't you tell me that it releases those sleep endorphin things? And that's why we always get tired by the end? It's totally a sleep aid.

[And also fun.]

[selfhelp]

The sex does, yes. But angry neighbours can create a stressful living situation, and stress over time triggers hyper-vigilance and over-sensitivity, even paranoia. Cortisol levels build up and without a way to relieve the situation, the hippocampus cells start to die, affecting memory and focus, both of which are definitely needed for effective studying.

Basically, too much sex ruins a good education.

[Ooh, talk science to me.]

[halfnhalf]

[Teddy's got that smile on his face, the one where he doesn't really know what Billy's saying, but god, listening to him talk is just so nice to hear. He stays quiet for a moment, trying to wrap his brain around all of that, but...]

Am I too healthy for a medical exam, then? And are you too pure for a sodomizing?

[selfhelp]

Hey, I said too much, not any. Purity's got nothing to do with it.

[He reaches across the table, touching two fingers to Teddy's chest and walking them up towards his neck.]

And med exams are critical for athletes, healthy or not. No talking your way out of it, Altman.

[halfnhalf]

[He fights back a shiver at the feel of those fingers walking up his chest, though he catches them his own before they go too far. While looking up at Billy through his lashes, Teddy presses a few light kisses to his knuckles, not even caring who'll look over and see.]

So... What are you telling me here? You're a station giving out mixed signals right now. Sex tonight for the sake of education or no sex for the sake of education?
