... yes, but... wouldn't you rather have a contingency with someone we trust?

[scarrystories]

... I. Honestly, if you disappeared, I'd probably move back to Down housing, or sign with Grace or Daniel. I'd want Junior to keep the house, and I'm guessing he'd sign with Ky.

[understood]

[ Fraser draws back a little. ]

You'd leave him here alone? Even if you didn't have to?

[scarrystories]

Of course not. I'd stay if he wanted me to, the thing is, if you left the house to one of us— or both, if the city allows it, we'd have three months to decide who to move in. But if you leave it to a Dominant, our options would be to sign with them or move out immediately.

[understood]

I see. No, that makes sense. I just don't like the idea of you being assigned some local for "the transition". I'd much rather you both signed with Grace, and she have the house on paper.

[scarrystories]

... I think I'd need the transitional time, Ben.

[understood]

Very well. I understand. I'll do as you suggest.

[scarrystories]

I know it's not something we have any control over, but please don't disappear on me.

[understood]

If I can by any means prevent it, you may be sure that I will.

[scarrystories]

Henry's gonna be so mad about him no longer being my favorite person.

[understood]

Will he really?

[scarrystories]

At first, yeah. But I think he'll be relieved right after.

[understood]

I'm sure he'll soon realize our relationships are entirely unique.

[scarrystories]

God, I hope so because I can't imagine him wanting to sleep with me.

[understood]

That... is a factor, I suppose.

[scarrystories]

... you're sure it was you and Ray?

[understood]

Entirely sure.

[scarrystories]

So, working theory is you go home, and then in three years or so, you give me a compass. And Ray gives me earmuffs.

[understood]

Yes. Where were you vacationing, exactly?

[scarrystories]

[ He gives a quiet, somewhat despaired chuckle. ]

I have no idea. I know we passed through Yellowknife, but that's it.

[understood]

That's alright. I'm reasonably sure I recognize the area.

[scarrystories]

You know, when we were in that room I thought maybe you were upset because you recognized it and noticed missing trees or something.

[understood]

There were signs of human encroachment on habitat I had hoped would be protected by now, but that was hardly my focus at the time.

[scarrystories]

[ Andy's just gonna kiss him again. ]

[understood]

[ Kisses are always welcome. ]
