If you are informed of your future and it is...unfortunate...do you ignore it or try to change it? [He has more or less made his decision, but he is open to the opinions of others.]

Furthermore, do you believe anyone can change for the better? Are some beyond redemption?

[Also, who decides such things? He wants to argue over that point out of habit, but this is serious and he is trying not to be an ass.]

[He shudders and snickers, tilting his head.]

If I am sour and sweet, I understand your draw!

[action]

[chambermusicandtenpins]

[He sucks gently at Gellert's skin, raising a mark.]

Ah, you are certainly very sweet right now. And sour at other times.

[action]

[greatestgood]

[The sensation makes him groan.]

I am only sour when I don't get my way. Right now, you are doing wonderful things for me.

[action]

[chambermusicandtenpins]

Ah, then I will have to continue. [He chuckles before tilting his mouth higher, sucking gently at his jaw, his fingers curling at Gellert's sides.]

[action]

[greatestgood]

All you have to do is be Albus. [Tilting into the contact, he gasps at the heat of the other's mouth.]

[action]

[chambermusicandtenpins]

Then that is what I will do.

[He sucks a mark into the skin before pulling away, looking at Gellert with lidded eyes.]

Shall I make you tea? Fetch you water? I am realizing what a rude host I am, to partake of you when you come to my home without offering you a drink.

[action]

[greatestgood]

[He growls and arches a brow. His cheeks are downright rosy and his heart is beating in exhilaration.]

Nonsense. You fetched me yourself and I came here for you; not tea or water.

[action]

[chambermusicandtenpins]

[He smiles, seeing Gellert's exhilaration before encouraging it further with a firm, lingering kiss.]

Very well then. You have me to yourself, as much as you like.

[action]

[greatestgood]

[His lips warm and that feeling shoots straight through him. Gellert can't mask the small, though very happy sigh that follows.]

Are you humoring me?

[action]

[chambermusicandtenpins]

Not in the slightest. I very much enjoy savoring your company.

[action]

[greatestgood]

[He raises an eyebrow and unbuttons his shirt, shrugging it off. Then he sets about making his own tea, moving in such a way that Albus can surely see his muscles.]

[action]

[chambermusicandtenpins]

[Albus' eyes take in the sight of Gellert all the while, drinking in the look of him as he goes about making the tea. He knows very well that Gellert is showing off for him, so he repays the favor by watching him ever-intently, watching him move with clear appreciation in his eyes.]

I forgot how much I enjoyed the sight of you while I was away.

[action]

[greatestgood]

[From his golden hair to his slightly tanned skin, Gellert knows he isn't hard on the eyes. The only part about him that he would change is his eye; he knows the sight is unnerving and he hopes he doesn't have that effect on Albus.

The teapot floats to the table once the brew is done - along with two cups and a jar of sugar.]

You can look all you like...and touch too.

[action]

[chambermusicandtenpins]

[He grins at that, taking one of the cups and letting the teapot fill it before he reaches for the sugar.]

I could. But if I touched you now, I would not be able to resist doing all sorts of wicked things, and your tea would get cold.

[action]

[greatestgood]

[He feigns a gasp, eyes sparkling.]

What sort of wicked things? We can drink our tea and then be wicked so it doesn't get cold.

[action]

[chambermusicandtenpins]

[He grins at those sparkling eyes, taking a long sip off of his teacup.]

I have not yet had you on my desk or in my bath, in spite of our discussions. I think I would put those ideas into practice.

[action]

[greatestgood]

[He growls lowly at the ideas, curling up in a chair with the teacup in his hands.]

Would you like me to wear anything special on your desk? I assume the bath is birthday suits only.

[action]

[chambermusicandtenpins]

[He grins slightly, sipping his tea with his eyes ever-focused on Gellert.]

Perhaps a tie. I could tug on it as I took you bent over the desk.

[action]

[greatestgood]

[He gives a noticeable shudder and takes a healthy sip of his tea.]

You're a lot more mischievous than you let on, Albus Dumbledore.

[action]

[chambermusicandtenpins]

[He grins cheekily as he drinks his own tea.]

Only recently. A certain younger wizard has had an effect on me.

[action]

[greatestgood]

Who is he? The scoundrel! [Gellert sits up straighter, fire in his eyes.]

Re: [action]

[chambermusicandtenpins]

Oh, he is quite the scoundrel. [Albus chuckles even as he drinks more tea, his eyes sparking mischief.] But he is delightful, too.

[action]

[greatestgood]

You sound like you're in love with him. [He feigns horror, tutting.] What will everyone think?

[action]

[chambermusicandtenpins]

Oh, I very much am. [Grinning, he adds:] It would be a scandal if people knew. But we have been very secretive.

[action]

[greatestgood]

Why share? [His eyes glint mischievously and he sips on his tea some more.] What would you do if someone started trying to get my attention?

Besides worrying about their sanity, of course.
