Really? Damn, then I wonder what strolling into class naked will get me!

[professor-dansby]

I don't know what it will get you, but it might get me into trouble.  Who knows, maybe you should try it one day.  [He teased.]

[professor-dansby]

[nick-bradlee-deactivated2014101]

Hot damn, we have another hot professor on campus!

[professor-dansby]

Flattery will get you everywhere.

Damien had gone for a run after classes, trying taking his mind off some things and honestly just wanting a breath of fresh air.  He stopped, stretching his arms above his head and closing his eyes with a sigh.  Turning after a moment, Damien startled when he nearly smacked right into someone.  "Shit.  Ah, sorry."

[gifthescreen]

[professor-dansby]

I know you weren’t, Adrian. [Amusement flashed in his eyes before Damien shook his head.] Unfortunately, no. Did you have any better luck over the summer?

[professormoore-deactivated20140]

In London? Wow … you clearly weren’t looking hard enough. [He chuckled again.] Me? Oh … one or two. Nothing to write home about.

[professor-dansby]

I really wasn't. There were a couple who caught my eye, but...sadly, nothing. So I'm jealous. [He chuckled as well.] I'll just have to find some way to deal with the sexual frustration now.

[professor-dansby]

I’m not that far from here. [He smiled, slipping his hands into his pockets.] A couple blocks. Although I probably spend more time in my office than I do at home.

[professormoore-deactivated20140]

I really was just kidding, y’know … I wasn’t looking for your address or anything. Anyway … [He sighed quietly, running a hand through his hair nonchalantly.] … you get any while you were in London?

[professor-dansby]

I know you weren't, Adrian. [Amusement flashed in his eyes before Damien shook his head.] Unfortunately, no. Did you have any better luck over the summer?

[professor-dansby]

Don’t think you could stop me from flattering you. [Damien grinned before laughing.] Had me worried there for a moment.

[professormoore-deactivated20140]

Hey, it’s a valid enough question [Adrian insisted with a shrug.] You don’t live with me, I know that much. You could reside anywhere for all I would know.

[professor-dansby]

I'm not that far from here. [He smiled, slipping his hands into his pockets.] A couple blocks. Although I probably spend more time in my office than I do at home.

[professor-dansby]

I’ll just have to keep flattering you, then.

That’d be a good idea, I think we both know how awful my memory can be at times.  [He joked a bit.]

[professormoore-deactivated20140]

Hey, I’m hardly gonna stop you.

We do indeed. Where d’you live again? [He chuckled] Don’t answer that, I’m just kidding.

[professor-dansby]

Don't think you could stop me from flattering you. [Damien grinned before laughing.] Had me worried there for a moment.

[justinripley]

[professormoore-deactivated20140]

Something like that, yeah.

Maybe I’ll buy you a new calendar for Christmas … and write a reminder in there for you too.

[professor-dansby]

I'll just have to keep flattering you, then.

That'd be a good idea, I think we both know how awful my memory can be at times.  [He joked a bit.]

[professormoore-deactivated20140]

Well then, thank you. Like I said, it’ll get you anywhere you want where I’m concerned.

You really should’ve, actually. I haven’t even been on the London Eye yet - and you know how much I enjoy riding on big, impressive things.

[professor-dansby]

Like...a free coffee or something?

I'll just have to remember that the next time that I go.  Probably next summer, we'll have to go.  Hm...yes, I think I vaguely remember you mentioning that once.

[professormoore-deactivated20140]

Flattery will get you everywhere … although I’m not totally convinced that was flattery.

Hey, it couldn’t have been any more boring than my weeks on end in Nowhereville, Ontario. I think a stay in hospital might’ve been more fun.

[professor-dansby]

Trust me, it was flattery.  Just...not a very good attempt at it.  But that's what I was going for.

So we were both suffering from boredom this summer?  Maybe I should have invited you to London with me, it might have made the trip a little more entertaining.

[professormoore-deactivated20140]

Someone has to.

Nice. And how are they doing?

[professor-dansby]

Hm.  Guess I don't really mind that person being you.

They're doing well, about the same, honestly.  It was a little boring.  [He laughed.]

[professormoore-deactivated20140]

You should have more confidence in your own abilities, cherie.

London, huh? Nice. I haven’t been there in way too long.

[professor-dansby]

I think you have more than enough confidence in my abilities for the both of us, Adrian.

Yeah, I was just visiting with my family, I hadn't seen them in a while.

[professormoore-deactivated20140]

Please - you’re good at everything.

Pretty good too, thank you. I actually missed this place over the summer - don’t tell anyone though.

[professor-dansby]

Now I know that's definitely not true.

Good to know that I'm not alone with that then.  It was nice being in London over the summer, but I did miss it here.
