Work Hard, Play Hard

Jacob Stratos * 30 * Staff Sergeant for Land Recon and Lead Combat Instructor aboard the Delta Prime I pride myself in being the best in doing what I do, because it's all I can do. I know exactly what I want from myself and from everyone else on this ship, and if I don't get my own way there will be hell to pay for. These people may not know me properly, but I have far too much resting on this to let it go to shit.

[aaronstratos]

I might need to make an appointment to the med bay.

[aaronstratos]

I dont think that is possible. Because you and I are alike and yet so different. I am the one who has a scar that reminds me of my past. A past as a criminal. You are should be careful brother, my presence of anyone close to me, is certain death. Yes. Do that.

[jacobincombat]

You don't think I have scars? [His tone is harsher, more serious] I don't know what has happened to make you talk like this, but no one has ever died because you've been close to them. In fact, you saying that to me is actually a little upsetting, considering how long I've been at your side for.

[jacobincombat]

Not in the mood...

[griffin-o--callahan]

Oh it will, will it? interesting [smiles back at Jacobs and readjusts slightly as he wraps his arms around him] No..[makes a playfully disapproving face] Some times you can be a real hard ass  and really really cocky. Granted, its a little attractive but really now… [smiles coyly]  haha don’t worry Jacob I know, I’ve had to read between the lines and play with me words thanks to my father. So I’ve learned when someone slips up and …its actually great you speak your mind on anything.  [Kisses Jacob back but pouts when he pulls away and his own arms drop to his side] Boooo, you don’t want people to see the sergeant being all couple like with a private eh. Or are you afraid of seeing seen like this with the commander’s kid? [turns his head around and pretends to look]

[jacobincombat]

Yes it will... But that's if you get that close. [Smirks, laughing softly at Ronan's disapproving face] Well then if you don't like those traits, you can understand why I don't like it so much when you're exactly the same. [Smiles warmly] Well I'm not the best at communicating my feelings, but I'm beginning to try... It's about time I was honest with people. [Smirks at the man's reaction to him pulling away, crossing his arms and making his biceps bulge] It's not because you're the commanders son, I just shouldn't be seen being this open with anyone. As much as I want to, for now anything we do has to be kept private, which means either you come to my quarters or we find empty rooms within the ship.

[jacky-boy-brandon-deactivated20]

So when do we go all badass on this thing that got Noah?

[jacky-boy-brandon-deactivated20]

[smirks] You’re the one who trained me. You made me. I’m up for anything. Somehow I don’t think my expert hand to hand combat will come in handy on this one. Got any idea how we’re gonna ice this one?

[jacobincombat]

That's how I know you're a typical soldier, because looking at you is like looking at myself a few years ago. Hell, we're still pretty similar now. [Laughs] Yeah maybe not, I'd rather keep your limbs attached to your body. As for a plan we don't have one as yet, but I'll probably have the discussion with Sergeant Terje and the other key crew members very soon, we can't wait to long if we're going to strike.

[jacky-boy-brandon-deactivated20]

So when do we go all badass on this thing that got Noah?

[jacky-boy-brandon-deactivated20]

No fight is easy Sarge. You taught me that. But we can’t live in fear of this thing.

[jacobincombat]

You're such a typical soldier... [Laughs] As much as I want to get it out of the way, we need to come up with a plan first, because I'm not going to lose anyone when we do this.

[jacky-boy-brandon-deactivated20]

So when do we go all badass on this thing that got Noah?

I’m ready to kick some ass.

[jacobincombat]

As much as I agree with you, I'm not sure you should be so eager for a fight with this thing, it won't be easy...

[aaronstratos]

I might need to make an appointment to the med bay.

[aaronstratos]

Im just one guy, brother. You have to watch out for the other men as well. I know how to handle myself. So dont worry about it.

[jacobincombat]

I've been keeping my eye on you to make sure no harm comes to you for twenty years now, I'm not about to stop just because you're as talented as I am. [Smiles warmly] I'll try not to let you know how worried I am from now on though, if that's what you want.

[jacobincombat]

Not in the mood...

[griffin-o--callahan]

Ahhhh I see, well… despite being young and there for impatient by default, I’ll wait for when you’re ready. [half smirks for a second before grabbing onto Jacob’s arm, pulling him closer again and wrapping both his arms over Jacob’ shoulders] I can say the same to you Sir. You weren’t the ‘devil may cry’ wise cracking playboy that morning. You actually seemed genuinely sweet and cuddly yourself. Well, when you weren’t trying to irk me on during of course [smiles] Kinda, I mean, I dunno…. we just seem to fight. We enjoy the same stuff, have similar personalities, can have as much fun kicking each other’s ass as just BSing or sleeping together. Anyone would be lucky to land you after all… [his smile turns into a playful smirk] Ohhhhhh, so I’m just the first one that hit the final lap… not sure if thats sweet or a little douchy of you, seeing who wants to go further first. [leans his forehead back against jacob’s and pauses fora few seconds]  ….. you like the result?

[jacobincombat]

Trust me, it'll be worth the wait... [Smiles, placing his hands on Ronan's hips as the man pulled him closer again] You mean I'm not always sweet and cuddly? What a surprise! [Chuckles] I agree, when I look at you I see the guy I was back on E-DEN... You really think so? [Jacob smiles sheepishly at Ronan's compliment, before widening his eyes] Oh no, that's not how it meant to sound... I just meant... I appreciate someone who's open with their feelings, and is comfortable with saying what they want. [His eyes slowly close as the man rests his forehead against his own, whispering against Ronan's lips] Of course I like the result, look at you... [Softly presses a kiss against his lips, before laughing and slowly pulling away from the man] As nice as that was, we can't be seen so close together, not out in public like this...

[dr-tidus-reid]

"Ah…I understand. In fact, let me be the one to say that you can always be honest with me."

[jacobincombat]

"That's good to hear..." Jacob licked his lips and looked down at the floor, his voice more hesitant. "If I'm being honest, then I just thought you should know... I like you. In more than a friendly way... I... Shit, I don't know how to say it properly..."

[nurse-wren]

Anyone need help?

[nurse-wren]

I can do that for you if you like, it really wouldn’t be any good to have the Sergeant’s muscles freezing up. And it is my job really, to make sure everyone is in tip-top shape.[Wren laughed softly] Naked then? I mean, it’s just slightly easier and I don’t have to maneuver the towel around. And I’m alright with it. [Wren bites the inside of his cheek, stepping into the room and looking about. Noticing the bed, Wren wants to groan a little. It’s definitely not one that he can get around easily and reach Jacob’s back, which means doing it another way, which felt a bit more intimate] Alright, will do, if you just want to lay the towels out, strip and get on top of them?

[jacobincombat]

I guess you're right, you're being far too generous right now. [Smiles warmly] Well then if you're alright with it, then naked it is... [While Wren looks into his room, Jacob walks around quickly, picking up a couple of towels to lie down on before joining the man next to the bed] Okay, I can do that. [With a smile, Jacob laid the towels flat over the bed before quickly pulling off his shirt. He walked round to the opposite side of the bed away from Wren, turning around so when he pulled his pants and briefs off at the same time, the man only saw his ass and not his groin as well. With a smile Jacob turned around, revealing himself to the man and climbing onto the bed, laying face down and settling into a comfortable position] This good?

[nurse-wren]

Anyone need help?

[nurse-wren]

I’m discovering that, and with all of the things going on around here lately everyone is stressed. If you have so many issues with it you’re welcome to come down to the med bay anytime you want. You could even probably just call and have me come up here, I don’t mind. There usually isn’t a lot going on down there and I really do like to be helping people out. [Wren offered smiling, stepping out of the elevator and walking down the hall with Jacob] I’m assuming that you’ll want a full body massage then? Front and back? I mean, and you could either strip all the way down or find a towel, I just need to be able to get everywhere. And then lay on the bed. [Wren suggested, a faint blush on his cheeks]

[jacobincombat]

I have to admit, that'd be pretty damn perfect, knowing I had someone to call for to help me out when my muscles freeze up... [Grins] Full body will be perfect, and I don't really mind. I'm perfectly comfortable naked, so I guess it's up to whichever option you're more comfortable with. [Smirks, trying not to laugh when he sees the blush on the man's cheeks] Anyway we're here now. [Turns to face the door, opening it up and holding the door open for Wren before shutting it behind both of them] I'm guessing you won't want to waste any time, my bed is just through there if you set up while I get us some towels.

[dr-tidus-reid]

"Miss me? I—ah…hm—that’s a nice sentiment—wait. You’re not going out on a solo mission, are you?"

[jacobincombat]

"No I'm not, recent events have just made me realize how important it is for me to be honest with people. If I or anyone I care about were to die before I get to be completely honest with them, it'll kill me."

[aaronstratos]

I might need to make an appointment to the med bay.

[aaronstratos]

That’s the reason why I go to the med bays. Besides my old injury from the terrorist bombing, because of my own stupidity. I nearly got killed, from then I knew I have to live my life more seriously. If the worse comes to happen, I will be fine. Im not afraid to die.

[jacobincombat]

Don't talk like that now Aaron, that attitude is fine on the battlefield, but not here, not now. Just the thought of losing you... No Aaron, it's not coming up again.

[nurse-wren]

Anyone need help?

[nurse-wren]

Those words could also be twisted in any number of ways to suit the mission at hand really. Like how human’s primal instinct is part of the humanity that is what we’re trying to save by finding a new planet? I suppose that might work. [Wren shrugged laughing, when he got back he followed after the man, stepping into the elevator behind him and settling against the wall, trying not to stare at the very attractive man he was in close confines with. ] All nurses are supposed to be trained in physical therapy, which requires you to know how to massage sore muscles. I just took that a step further, figuring there were a lot of people on board who were going to be stressed or have back issues. So far that’s been a good idea?

[jacobincombat]

I knew you were a smart cookie. [Laughs, turning to face the man slightly once the elevator began to move] You can say that again, pretty much everyone onboard has some form of muscle problems, it's the curse of such hardcore workouts. I have worse than most, seeing as I'm pretty much exercising all day everyday, so if you can even begin to fix my body it would be much appreciated. [Smiles warmly, turning to face the doors as they beep open, walking out and waiting outsie the doors for Wren, before beginning to walk towards his quarters.] My room is just a few doors down here...

[nurse-wren]

Anyone need help?

[nurse-wren]

I suppose in some ways we are, but you’d figure they’d at least give us that if we’re on a dangerous mission in space. [Chuckles] Really? Well then I suppose I’m happy to be talking to the nice guy, it wouldn’t do to get punished simply for talking casually with the Sergeant. Well then, I’m very happy to help out. Your bed will work fine…I just might have to figure out how I maneuver myself. Just let me duck in and grab the massage oil. [Wren murmured, sneaking back into the med bay quickly and coming back] Now I can follow you back.

[jacobincombat]

Well the official word is that we're "not allowed to do anything which will take our minds off the mission at hand", but as I see it I'll be more distracted if I don't do anything, that would be a long time to keep it in my pants. [Laughs] Yeah no worries, you can just do whatever you need to do... [Waits for the man to return, facing him with a relaxed smile when the man comes back] Let's go then. [Turns on his heels and makes the short walk to the elevator, waiting for Wren to enter before pressing the right button, watching the doors close] So how come you have massage training anyway?

[dr-tidus-reid]

"I—uh…thank you?…"

[jacobincombat]

"Sorry Tidus, I didn't mean to confuse you..." Jacob rubbed his hand over the line of his jaw, wondering how honest he should be. "I mean you're a great guy, one of few who's company I would actually miss if I had to leave for whatever reason... So yeah, I guess I wasn't joking."

[jacobincombat]

Top three people you want to dominate?

Good question!

Daniel

Ronan (Just to see the look on his face)

Wren

[jacobincombat]

Ever thought about a man in panties?

Occasionally... It's not exactly one of my top fantasies, but as long as I get to rid them off him then it's all fine with me.
