could never be me begging anyone like that. it’s pathetic.

+ sits forgotten by the pair of them—— frankly, it might not ever get read.

a brow ticks upward, nearly unbidden; he knows infinitely better than to call attention to the purring. “… comfortable?”

[𝘈 𝘉𝘌𝘓𝘐𝘌𝘝𝘌𝘙 .ᐟ @centeredinsense]

“right, that is what i’ve heard,”

the grin on his face? juuuust shy of ‘cheeky’. how could this ever be explained to anyone outside of this room? he’s steeped in the intimacy of the moment, for christ’s sake, he’s holding logan’s gaze as he strokes his face. the book +

[LOGAN ⓧ @SNIKTIST]

“ you’re taxing. must be why scott always has a stick up his ass. he spends all day playin’ teacher’s pet for you. ”

the soft warmth of charles’ hand along his face, the gentle touch, it’s a fondness that makes logan feel ( safe ). it’s that same fondness and safety that——

[𝘈 𝘉𝘌𝘓𝘐𝘌𝘝𝘌𝘙 .ᐟ @centeredinsense]

Aht, /no./

Because if you get to distinguish the most bothersome one, where do you stop drawing that line?

[E. @POLARIITY]

Just one of them, my dear. /Please/ let me kiII just one human.

[𝘈 𝘉𝘌𝘓𝘐𝘌𝘝𝘌𝘙 .ᐟ @centeredinsense]

Oh, I sincerely don’t like the sound of that.

[E. @POLARIITY]

No. He won’t. I’ll be sure of that.

+ his hair, on stroking his newly freed hand across one weathered cheek; on doting on the stray that has limped through his door.

“mm, certainly. just ( my ) luck. and what a chore it must be to keep up with my frivolous demands,”

[𝘈 𝘉𝘌𝘓𝘐𝘌𝘝𝘌𝘙 .ᐟ @centeredinsense]

a gentle grin vastly undercuts the responding roll of the eyes; he’s setting his work down as something from his (painstakingly organized, thank you) classics section drifts lazily through the air towards the pair.

his attention is now focused entirely on logan. on tousling +

[LOGAN ⓧ @SNIKTIST]

“ stroking your own ego? reading your own writing, /for fun/? ”

it’s teasing. playful. as…friends(?) do.

—and they are friends, aren’t they? even when logan struggles to believe that anyone would be his friend, not because he feels inadequate——

[𝘈 𝘉𝘌𝘓𝘐𝘌𝘝𝘌𝘙 .ᐟ @centeredinsense]

—— No, he won’t?

+ shockingly, has plenty of books.”

[𝘈 𝘉𝘌𝘓𝘐𝘌𝘝𝘌𝘙 .ᐟ @centeredinsense]

he arches a brow. he never intends to peruse logan’s thoughts—— the way that he never really intends to overhear erik’s. a lifetime of knowing had simply left the pair a bit more …. ( open ) to each other than charles would allow himself to be with most others. he could see +

[LOGAN ⓧ @SNIKTIST]

he ( didn’t ) knock—for the record.

what was charles gonna do? tell him to leave? as if he’d listen. he’s 300lbs of muscle and metal. he wants to cuddle. he’s an unstoppable force.

“ my bad. forgot not everyone gives in to the urge to become a mindless animal——

[𝘈 𝘉𝘌𝘓𝘐𝘌𝘝𝘌𝘙 .ᐟ @centeredinsense]

+ logan’s thoughts the way he could discern his own; effortlessly, always.

and he’d swear that if he asked logan to jump, he’d bitch about it while asking precisely how high. “it’s my dissertation, if you must know. wasn’t joking about the story, though, mate; the library, +

[𝘈 𝘉𝘌𝘓𝘐𝘌𝘝𝘌𝘙 .ᐟ @centeredinsense]

he’s drawing a deeeeep breath.

in, out, through, down. getting a bit difficult to distinguish wavelengths.

[𝘈 𝘉𝘌𝘓𝘐𝘌𝘝𝘌𝘙 .ᐟ @centeredinsense]

+ acting like it.

stroking a gentle hand through tangles and grease—— if he minds at all, he makes no indication of it.

“all the things in the world you could tease me for, and you choose … literacy? logan, really. if you’d like me to read you a story, you simply need to ask.”

[𝘈 𝘉𝘌𝘓𝘐𝘌𝘝𝘌𝘙 .ᐟ @centeredinsense]

certainly, because that sounds like charles—— ever in the habit of ushering out a guest and shutting the door firmly behind them.

did logan even knock before entering his study? did it surprise him in the least? the man was a fixture in his life; he could certainly start +

[LOGAN ⓧ @SNIKTIST]

he likes to think he knows charles better than most. but there will always be a part of his mind that questions (when) he has overstayed his welcome.

“you could be doing anything in the world, and yet you’re sittin’ here /reading a book/. you’re getting old, chuck.”

[𝘈 𝘉𝘌𝘓𝘐𝘌𝘝𝘌𝘙 .ᐟ @centeredinsense]

aht—— please. if we yell too loud we’re bound to summon antonio.

[𝘈 𝘉𝘌𝘓𝘐𝘌𝘝𝘌𝘙 .ᐟ @centeredinsense]

if logan’s anticipating anything else, he’s sincerely wounded—— he simply must not know charles as well as he presumed.

charles hardly lifts the book he’s reading to accommodate the other, one hand freeing to tangle itself with near automatic seamlessness in logan’s mane.

[LOGAN ⓧ @SNIKTIST]

carefully and slowly crawling on to the sofa and laying his head on @centeredinsense’s lap.

chuck will just accept this. chuck will refrain from any patronizing comments. chuck will reach down with a hand and pet his wolverine’s stupidly shaped hair.

Eyeroll. Yawn. Casual, thoroughly unimpressed examination of nail beds.
