post one-shot

[notarealstate]

Hawaii had reassured him that it wasn't 'a disaster', but the fact that they had to stop because it was too painful kind of made it so that now trying to face it again would be more...Well, intimidating for Rico, and possibily more frustrating for Hawaii himself though he'd never admit it.

Rico assumes that they will keep being friends and discuss what happened in a way that hopefully didn't make it worse. The tarot reading Rico gave himself said they were gonna be okay, so...

"Hello." Rico sits next to Hawaii at dinner. "How did the mission go?"

"Hey!" He scoots a bit to the side, making more room for Rico.

"It went great. Nothing remarkable happened" he replies, "I'm actually more excited about seeing you again"

He wraps his arm around Rico's waist, then places a kiss on his forehead.
"How's your day been?"

[notarealstate]

"Oh, did some training, the usual."

He curls his mouth.

"The Counselor made me do that telepathy test with the symbols on the cards. I guessed all of them but then we talked more and a thing that I actually thought had happened turns out was just a dream or a vision I had in my sleep. I think he might be mad at me, he' scary."

[imbringingsexyhack]

"What do you mean? What's that thing about?" He can't help but wonder wether or not the Counselor would lie just to mess with Rico.
It sounds like something he'd do, he's creepy, and he's pretty sure that's what he does in his free time.

If he ever stops working, that's it.
"To me it sounds like he's just looking for excuses to be mad at you rather than admitting that he just hates everyone in here"

[notarealstate]

"I think he actually likes everyone here? Which is kinda worse." he pours some water in his cup "Though I don't know about Wyoming's rumour about him crushing on the Director. That would be funny for sure, and also kinda sad."

[imbringingsexyhack]

"I never really thought about that. Wyoming is pretty bad at guessing crushes" he shrugs.

"I guess it would make sense if he did, though. I don't think I'd be able to stand the Director all day long if I didn't secretely want to fuck him or something" he chuckles.

"On the other hand, I just... can't picture the Counselor having a crush. That guy feels too much like a robot to me"

[notarealstate]

Rico squints, did he imagine it sounding bad or did it actually imply that Hawaii only stands him because he can fuck him? No, no, that's probably not what he meant.

"So is the Director the one person you wouldn't fuck?" he sounds amused, he mostly is.

[imbringingsexyhack]

He laughs.

"Well, he isn't a DILF, that's for sure. Plus he's built like a toothpick"
For a moment he tries to imagine the Director naked. he regrets it immediately.

"If I had to be brutally honest, the only reason why I'd fuck him is to get better work conditions. Or to get a few people fired"
He doesn't want to ruin the mood by mentioning Florida, but that's the first person that pops on his mind.

[notarealstate]

"I think he'd look nice if he ate a bit more. Perhaps he'd even calm down a little."

He chuckles.

"That's probably rude, maybe he's got a disease that makes him so thin."

[imbringingsexyhack]

"Wouldn't know. But I believe a nice fuck would help him calm down for sure"

He pulls Rico closer, not that it's related to the conversation, but he's happy of sitting next to him.

"Changing topic, do you have any plans for tonight?"

[notarealstate]

"If you wanna do the telepathy exercise with me, that'd be cool. Other than that, I don't really have assignments."

[imbringingsexyhack]

"That's fine to me. Do we need to get a deck or anything? Or is it another exercise?"

He takes a bite of his dinner, using his free hand as he still has the other arm wrapped around Rico.

[notarealstate]

"The Counselor gave me a Zener deck. I think he has another one but I should bring it back in pristine condition, just to make sure. Oh, and he would like us to film the experiment if we can."

[imbringingsexyhack]

"well, I do have a camera. We just need to make sure to send the right video, though, I have personal stuff there"

Rico could easily figure out by himself what he meant with "personal stuff".

[notarealstate]

"Oh!"

Somehow Rico feels flustered at the mere thought.

"Gross!"

[imbringingsexyhack]

"It's just me, don't worry" he chuckled.

"thought you'd be interested in seeing some videos"
He slides his arm down, squeezing Rico's ass just to tease him.

[notarealstate]

"What?! No! Why would I?"

He really is grossed out. Though this is not about him being asexual, at all. He is not sex repulsed, this specific type of aversion stems from something else. Life has taught him, somehow, that he should have nothing to do with this type of stuff.

[imbringingsexyhack]

This reaction startles him, but he isn't going to make fun of Rico for it.

"I mean, I thought you found me sexy, or something" he's getting mumbly, because he really doesn't want to come off as confrontational.

"I was just kidding"

[notarealstate]

"Oh, no, it's not that. I do like you," by which he means 'find you sexy' but he figures it sounds dumb coming out of his mouth "It's just--"

He shakes his head.

"Sorry."

[imbringingsexyhack]

"It's okay, I... forget that porn isn't actually your thing"
Should they be having this conversation in the mess hall? He doesn't really care, he discussed worst stuff with York or Florida, in the past. And was a lot more graphic about it, too.

"You don't have to be ashamed for it"

[notarealstate]

"I mean, I guess I would watch it if it was us." Rico says in a bafflingly nonchalant tone "That if I was any good at this stuff anyway."

He is still an awkward virgin at heart, but he does mean the filthy thing he just said. It is quite the combination for sure.

[imbringingsexyhack]

"That's the spirit!" he patted Rico on the back, "I'm always willing to help you practice"

He glides over how random it sounds, especially considering the way Rico looked horrified not so long ago.
He puts a hand on his knee anyway.

[notarealstate]

"Um. Right."

He's closed off again. It's coming back to him how embarassing that last attempt was, even the idea of bringing it up makes him want to sink into the floor.

"Okay, so..." he reaches for the deck in his pocket "Here are the cards."

[imbringingsexyhack]

"great"

He takes a moment to finish off the last bite of his dinner, before picking his tray up.

"I guess we can go, then. My room?"

[notarealstate]

"Sure."

He knows the way so he walks past Hawaii without letting him lead him there. Which probably looks suspicious, but they're not doing anything wrong.

He sets the material on the table.

"Okay so, there's five of each card. I don't think we have to use all of them but uh," he puts all the cards face down and shuffles them "You have to pick some cards. Then you hold them up without them facing me and I have to guess what symbol it is."

The five symbols available are: a circle, a cross, three waves, a square, and a star.

[imbringingsexyhack]

Hawaii closes the door behind them, and has RIco sets everything up, he fetches the camera. He places it behind himself, so that it's recording Rico and the cards when he picks them up.

"Alright.I'm starting the video" he warns before sitting down, and drawing the first card.
