↘ Roll as many times as you like! Play out as many scenarios as you want! Just enjoy the fluffy or angsty goodness.

● 01 I HAVE A CONFESSION | There's someone you really like and it's finally time to tell them! It can be spur of the moment or elaborately planned out.
● 02 START OF SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL | You've just got together and everything is great! You can't stop thinking about each other or keep your hands off your significant other. You want to spend all the time you can together, doing whatever!
● 03 CAN'T GET IT UP | It happens to everyone, honest! For whatever reason, you just haven't been able to perform or maybe you're just not interested in sex. Is it because things are dull? Is it because you're not attracted to your partner? Or have you just been too busy or stressed out?
● 04 SAW YOU LAST NIGHT | You think you saw your partner in the arms of another - was it an honest mistake or is something honestly going on here?
● 05 FIRST TIME | It's the first kiss or the first time making love with your partner and you're so nervous and awkward, you're sure you'll mess it up! Maybe you do, but that's okay... they like you, right?
● 06 ANNIVERSARY | Two week, two month, two year, or whatever number you decide, that's how long you've been together with your partner and you want to do something special to celebrate it!
● 07 WANT YOU BACK | You broke up, but it was a mistake. You need to correct it ASAP... will your lover take you back though?
● 08 JUST MARRIED | Just married! Is it the wedding night? The honeymoon? You decide!
● 09 BAD ROMANCE | You're no good for each other and you know it! Unfortunately, your relationship is so sizzling, you can't break it off and you don't even want to.
● 10 FIGHT | You're both in one of those moods where you just want to sit around fighting over every little thing... bills or money, friends, your partner staying out too late, or whatever you can think of!
● 11 LET'S MAKE UP | Of course making up is the best part though! Whatever it was is totally forgotten now.
● 12 HONEY, I'M... | You've been feeling a little funny for a bit, so you take a pregnancy test and... oh no! Or is it 'oh great!'? Time to tell your partner either way...
● 13 ABOUT LAST NIGHT | Time to face that one night stand...
● 14 CHEATER | You're not being cheated on! You're the other person meddling with someone's lover! But for whatever reason, you just can't say no even if you know you should...
● 15 OBJECTIONS | You're facing a lot of objections to your relationship and it's starting to put a strain on it. Why don't you sit down and discuss it, see if you can work it out?
● 16 HAVE TO LET YOU GO | You have to break up with your partner... not because you want to! But because you need to protect them... can you do it successfully? Will they find out? You decide!

Eric doesn't want to be in the same history books as Trip XD

[quantum_defender]

[hates that he caused that guarded look. It didn't look right on Wes]

[snorts, but closes the door behind him as he walks in.]

Took him two tries but he finally got it. Tell me why we are keeping him on the squad again?

hahahahahahaha yes well

[owndestiny]

[gesturing to a seat, not sure if you'll still sit without the invitation, like you used to]

[rueful] He was nearly in tears when he spoke to me last time.

[quantum_defender]

[Had been waiting for an invitation, because he still wasn't quite sure at how welcome he was]

And that makes a good security guard how?

[owndestiny]

[always welcome, dammit]

[we need a decent working relationship no matter what]

Aw, c'mon, Eric. He's having a hard time at home. He'll improve.

[quantum_defender]

So are we and it's not affecting our work.

[blunt but its easier that way. Though this might affect their working relationship a bit]

[owndestiny]

Ah.

[meeting honesty with honesty]

Yeah, I know. But can't you give him a chance?

[instead of throwing out things when they start being problematic]

[wistful about that, not angry, exactly]

[quantum_defender]

Fine. But next time, he doesn't get three tries. We have to enforce the rules occasionally or who knows what people would try to get away with.

[Has never been a fan of Wes' bending the rules for sentimental reasons, even if he does understand it. Most of the time.]

[He doesn't understand a lot of things when it comes to Wes]

Look, Wes...[shit this was hard] Speaking of giving someone another chance....

[owndestiny]

[snorts]

[acknowledging that with good grace] You're right, I know. It's just... hard.

[likewise]

[swallows, looks at you] ...yes?

[quantum_defender]

Thank you.

[Knows it's hard sometimes, he's not completely heartless. But it has to be done.]

I was hoping you'd give me one.

[owndestiny]

[and that's why we work together]

[you're not heartless, and I'm not without discipline, but we need to balance each other]

[leaning back in my chair, expression easing a little]

Uh huh.

[quantum_defender]

[Something like that.]

[glares halfheartedly]

You are going to make me work for this aren't you?

[Which, he realizes, he should. Wes has every right.]

I can't...I can't say I'm not worried about people finding out and what it would do to the reputation of the Guardians. But in the last month...I'm finding I care less and less.

[He isn't sure he can outright say he missed Wes]

[owndestiny]

Well, a little harder than you are.

[still wary/sad about everything that happened, but the amused affection is starting to show through, too]

[that's not a bad effort, not bad at all]

You realise I don't want to take out full page ads in the newspaper or anything. I just don't want to... hide it. Hide you.

[quantum_defender]

I'm not good at this and you know it [grumpily but he's trying]

I know. And its not just the Guardians. I'm used to not caring what people think about me. But...you aren't. You know this will change how people see us. See you. You really up for that?

[owndestiny]

[helpful] You're getting better.

[slow, slow grin]

Yep. You better believe I am. Anything they want to throw at me.

[quantum_defender]

[Isn't quite convinced and doesn't bother trying to hide it.]

You know it could get ugly right? Hell, we're public figures, of course its going to get ugly.

Shit, have you even told your dad yet?

[owndestiny]

Depends on what you mean by ugly, Eric. If there's media attention, I'll hold a press conference. You can be there or not, as you want.

[gently] I'm not ashamed of loving you. I don't give a damn what they throw at me.

[coughs] Um. I.

Didn't have to.

[quantum_defender]

[Makes a face]

Let's keep that as a last resort, okay?

[has a pained look in his eyes]

This has nothing to do with...that. [has a hard time saying love but then, he's never had the best experience with it] You know that right?

...

What?

[owndestiny]

Sure, but if there are any rumours or misinformation floating around, we'll nip 'em in the bud.

[sighing a little, I know you feel it, I wish you could say it sometime]

[but I mean this] Yeah. I know.

[rubbing my forehead, eyes dancing at you]

[quantum_defender]

Yeah, let's do that. [Really hopes it doesn't get to that.]

[He's trying. For what it's worth, Wes is the only one he's ever tried for.]

[And he really does feel it.]

[Glares for real this time] Wes....this isn't funny.

[owndestiny]

[...you are ridiculously cute when you're obviously disagreeing with me violently and trying not to show it]

[I know]

[and I know how much of a gift it is]

Wasn't funny when it happened. About a week or so back, he... he asked me when we were fixing things up between us.

I fell off my chair.

[quantum_defender]

[Shut up. These are genuine concerns okay?]

[Just, pardon him for screwing up every now and then.]

[Stares]

Shit...how did he know? [Is never going to be able to look Wes' father in the eyes again]

[owndestiny]

[always]

[as long as you excuse me when I screw up]

[swallows] Apparently I've been pining. Or sulking. Or both.

[quantum_defender]

[Always. He thinks. Have we mentioned he's not good at this?]

[dead pan look]

What did you do? Write my name all over your notebook surrounded by hearts like a high school girl?

[owndestiny]

[hey, I may be a lot more open and more comfortable with feelings than you are]

[doesn't mean my skillz are mad, yo]

[grinning, protesting] Eric! No, c'mon. I, uh.

Well, I haven't done anything at work. But apparently when I visit I'm a little too inclined to put the milk away in the cupboard and the cereal in the fridge, y'know? That kind of thing.

[quantum_defender]

[Don't do that. It's embarrassing]

[was teasing, really. Mostly.]

[frowns]

But how did he know it was me and not some residual Jen feelings or some other woman? Who was that one you dated for a while? Karen? Katie?

[It was Kristen and Eric had hated her. She was so annoying]
