OOMM: The Crossing Star (Frederick and Alec)

[knightofmercury]

Frederick is leaning against the bar at the Crossing Star, idly watching the colorful bustle going on around him, while the barkeep fetches his drink. It's rather busy tonight, the sort of night when you could think you saw someone you recognized, then quickly lose track of them. Which has happened to Frederick more than once already, as his glance has been darting around—there are always too many faces in a place like this that are at least somewhat familiar to him.

He's here alone tonight. No one at Dawnbright seemed to want to come with him.

Frederick slides his finger up Alec's throat, using it to tip up his chin gently.

"Exciting... and different," he repeats, almost in a sigh. "Well, I can certainly accomodate you there, my dear boy. But there's a fine line between 'exciting' and 'frightening', and 'different' is rarely... comfortable, at first."

His eyes aren't quite meeting Alec's; his gaze is wandering about his throat and up to his lips.

"Frightening is exciting," he says a bit of a hitch in his breath. It's rather queer being taller than Frederick but at the same time feeling smaller, which is he manages to project. "As for different... well.. nothing is comfortable at first."
