[This place already feels like home. A really overbearing home, but home nonetheless.]
Hi, Eunyce.
[Oh God, did he pronounce that right? He gives her a firm shake either way and an amicable smile that he shares with anyone else bold enough to introduce themselves face-to-face. He's not at all surprised that the older ones are keeping their distance, but he's sure they'll warm up to him eventually.]
So who's got a grill open that I can take care of these crabs with?
[Here's your open, adults.]

[Here's your open, adults.]
[She's still too tired to do much of anything but relax and talk, so he's in luck! But eventually she's going to need her arm back, so he should mentally prepare himself for that, maybe.]
Good, because I like this whole turning the tables kind of thing. [Which isn't to say that he's always been the dominant one, but it was a little difficult to be as versatile - she didn't have the reach or efficiency that he did. But this? It leveled the playing field quite a bit.]
I'll try to avoid the mess next time, though. [Although if they always have sex when they eat cheesecake she won't complain! She pulls at his hand to finish cleaning up, and know that her attention isn't split two different ways she can take her time with that.]

["THERE'S CRAB?!" One of the older teenagers, maybe eighteen or so, looks as if he's been told that God exists and unicorns truly shit life-giving rainbows. "My dad is cooking kebabs, come on!!" Without any sense of hesitation the boy pulls at Boxer's hand with both of his but, frankly, that's just not going to happen. The kid's gangly and small aside from the fact that monsignor kraken boyfriend is larger than life and can't be easily shifted outside of his own will. Nariko is quick to step in, sounding for all the world like a stern parent.]
Abbas, since when do you run around demanding people follow you? Your mother has taught you better!
["Fine!" The pout is a physical thing, and another inheritance since there's another resemblance to Nariko there.]
Good. Now come on, since you're so excited for them you can help. [The buffet isn't far off, and just as the youngling had said, a rather large, imposing man stood at the industrial grill, turning over meat and vegetables while some of the older adults fluttered around, arranging plates and finishing dishes once and for all.]
Boxer, this is my uncle Tamir.
[The man had a face like a barely composed brick, but his smile was kind all the same, "Nice to meet you. Please let us know if you need anything, including a break from that one." He points the spatula at Nariko, who only sticks her tongue out in response.]

[He shrugs.]
Feel like I'd be missing out if I didn't come up for air every so often. [That's all! But he gets the heart of what she's trying to say, and even though he wouldn't have the self-confidence to make the argument for himself, it feels good that she's so supportive of what he's ended up doing for himself.]
Speaking of which...
[Boxer gently runs the back of a finger over her cheek.]
Would you like to plan for another date?
[Not a lot of first dates end up in one of the involved party's bedroom so he's gonna go out on a limb here and assume they're in the green for #2. Or #3. Whatever.]

If I think about that I have to admit that this one is going to end!
[It's kind of like being excited for the next day, but you still don't want to go to sleep, even knowing it would get you to what you want.
Also, it's #3, right? They certainly rolled around a lot the first time but they actually got to know each other! So it counts!]
Can I go ahead and ask for a total of three more, at least? I mean, even if the other two are technically date loans or something ...
[Look, she likes spending time with him and she's just not going to be very subtle about it, that's kind of the default setting when this sort of comfort and overall attraction is involved.]

[It's less that he has an erection and more that it's really hard to keep his penis in when he's surrounded by such muscle-relaxing warmth. In truth, he might end up napping too...especially with this calm narrator.
If she's trying to parse out his heartbeats, the pattern will become clear after a while. His central, largest heart, beats at a regular pace. The other two beat more erratically--more when he's breathing in, nearly silent when breathing out. The description sound chaotic, but in reality it's a soothing rhythm that is almost like the bass beat of a song.]

[Boxer can't help but laugh at her chiding Abbas. Thank God she's around, because he couldn't pull that off.
(Actually, he would, it's just that the line to be crossed is much farther on him.)
He waits until Abbas has let go of him to continue the conversation.]
That's right. I caught it with my own hands, too. My tentacles, actually, if you want to be specific.
[And then there's the ride to her uncle!]
Hey! I've made it this far without any help! I should be fine. [He turns to Nariko.] Could you turn me around so I can share my loot?

[It's been ages now and she's still amazed that he has three - but he's a big and complicated guy so it's silly to think just one would be enough.] Hmm. [It almost bothers her that they're so out of sync with each other, or rather that the result creates something which is entirely unique unto itself. But the more she listens the more comforting it sounds, especially when paired with the dull sound of weather.
All that it really means is that she tries to give him a little hug.]
I love every part of you.
[The words are kind of muffled against his chest, but they exist all the same.]
I also love Frito's.
[But it can definitely be said that she loves the former much, much, much more than the latter.]

[Boxer why are you interrupting her hand licking, rude!!]
Uh, well.
[Hey, she's still got her shorts on. Her own mess is very much confined, though it won't be if she moves anything. So yeah, that's all him.]
It's not that bad!
[It's kind of that bad, but he ended up with the girlfriend who enjoys frenetic cleaning, so there's no use in worrying about it too much.] It won't take more than a few minutes to clean up! [More like twenty, but give back the cheesecake hand! She wasn't done sucking the flavor off.]

[He scoffs.] Only three? Look, if you're going to buy in bulk, make sure it's bulk.
[Boxer prods her side playfully.]
I was gonna propose--this one doesn't have to end tonight. You can spend the night with me again if you really like my sheets that much.
[He'd ask if he could stay here, but (a) he's not going to invite himself and (b) he kind of needs water to sleep.]

[Cue the wide-eyed amazement at the information, the accompanying "Awesome!" if nothing else Boxer's a hit with the kids, Abbas and six of the younger ones are trailing after he, Nariko, and Eunyce in constant interest. They're polite enough to refrain from touching but they very clearly want to, which means that Nariko has to keep her eye on them, but she doesn't miss her boyfriend's request.]
Sure!
[She adjusts the chair as Eunyce leans over to peek a little bit - are they live crabs or dead already? That sort of thing.
Of course while he's turned, and by virtue of being near the food there are more introductions, mostly from the older crowd this time. They're far more polite but no less expressive - Boxer has the unfortunate luck to meet Jasira, a woman in her late thirties who is apparently reminded of her late husband just by looking at Boxer so.
But given his extra sensitive hearing it might give him the chance to hear Eunyce (badly) whispering to Nariko, "Holy shit he's really hot! You could cut fruit with his jawline!!"
So that's a bright spot.]

[If she could somehow accommodate issue (b) then she would, but the fact of the matter is that her tub is barely big enough for her, let alone Boxer. All she's got is her mattress and she doesn't want him to wake up dry or possibly hurt in some kraken-care oriented way.
It's just, y'know, if she does go home with him (again) then does that mean something will happen, are they going to lose the emotional intimacy? Because it's been nice, and it's not something she really wants to jeopardize. But she doesn't want to leave him, either.
Life is fucking difficult, and it sucks.]
Well, I do like your sheets. [In the end she just goes with it, what else can she hope to do, anyway? It wouldn't have come out of her mouth if some other, important aspect of her natural being didn't want this outcome.] And I could maybe cash in on that breakfast.
[Especially since she hasn't been granted the joy of a homemade one in weeks, now.]

[It's cute. It's really cute to see someone that is so confident and skilled at sex have a kink that she's actually a little shy about!
And the idea that he'd be able to achieve that for her is really exciting. He nuzzles the top of her head affectionately.]
So if we were to play it out... [and it's practically a guarantee that they will,] what would your ideal fantasy include...?

[Relax, he's not planning to be up to any tricks tonight.]
Yesss.
[He pumps his fist as if in victory, then rubs his hands together as if scheming something devious!]
Oh--you don't have any food allergies, do you?
[Please don't break his heart and say yes.]
Yesss.

If only I was made of Frito's.
[He's not really big on Frito's himself, he's more into popcorn.]
I love every part of you, too, even when they're being a huge pain in the butt.
[Brace yourself, Nariko. Here come the full-body snuggles. You think you were gonna get far without being tangled in tentacles?]

[They're alive and rubber-banded! It's safe to put your hands in there.]
Um...
[He's really not sure how to handle Jasira's response to him. Soon enough he's distracted by Eunyce's (loud) whispering, and by instinct he hides his jaw from sight on instinct, feeling his cheeks turn hot. He tries to busy himself with the kids, then, lifting up his tentacles and tempting the little ones to touch them while Nariko isn't looking!]

[She raises a little brow at him.]
Absolutely none. But now I have to wonder why you're so concerned.
[What is he planning that might make him think of possible allergies to begin with?]

[They will forever be on opposite ends of that - she doesn't like popcorn at all. It's good that they know how to respect each others food choices.]
I don't want you to be made of Frito's because then I can't eat them off of you. [And she's kind of fond of eating things off of him. But, nah, she was actually more than ready for the all over hug! She reaches down to pet a few before she grins.]
It's not so bad when I have someone looking out for me. [This is so much better than dealing with it herself.]

Ooh. Good point.
[Hopefully she doesn't realize one of them is not like the others...then his cover will be blown!
How about more affectionate fingers in hair action? She cool with that?]
I can't imagine what it's like...so I'm glad to help as much as possible.

's fine!
[That she can actually get that out around this one particular section of his forefinger that she seems to like more than the rest is a miracle. It's entirely possible that some deeply set part of her just enjoying sucking and nibbling, because she graduates to the latter a bit, very gently.]
Lazy is a good outcome. [But bed is probably a good destination, eating sweets at, what, one in the morning? That's fun and all but they're both Adult People with Adult Jobs and shit.] At least we both feel better.
[And they sort of got engaged and pretty much sort of said they'd have kids together! They've packed a lot in.]

Well - I mean ...
[Is it still cute if she has difficulty getting the words out? ] I don't really - y'know, I don't know how it works when you can have an instinct like that. I just.
[Ahahahahaha, kill her. KILL HER THIS IS EMBARRASSING.]
I mean it's - hard to have a specific fantasy I just ... Think about being knocked up with a lot at once. [Try to be patient with her Boxer she's not used to being this uncertain or unsure of herself. But for all of the complicated feelings there's no denying the excitement that comes with mentioning the whole deal, so try not to mind her squirming, too.]

Mm. God, I love you so much.
[You indulge him so well, Nariko. He lets out a dark, throaty chuckle when she starts nibbling at his hand.]
What--what do you want to do next?
[He feels bad about leaving her hanging, but it really can be her choice as far as how they proceed. Bath? More sex? Take five (or twenty) for clean-up?]
