            she could say something BITING about just how average it is, but that’s just MEAN and she likes rafe and - really, though, there’s nothing wrong with his dick. so instead she just gives him another incredulous look - ‘ are you TALKING to it ? …. - why are boys so fucking weird ? ’ she questions. ‘ i didn’t imply anything . that’s all in your head, ’ sammy insists. hey, mean is a damn good word and one she uses all the time…. - he doesn’t believe her ?? how RUDE. what if she had actually been hurt ? sammy is OFFENDED on behalf of this alternate universe samantha who has her feelings hurt. so she looks up with tearfilled eyes, lower lip wobbling. ‘ i SUCKED YOUR DICK, ’ you bet she’s going to push that back in his face even though it was her idea, ‘ and you call me a SALTY HAG. is that really what you think of me, raphael ? ’ tears stream down her face openly now, & she dashes them away with the sleeve of bates-issued shirt. ‘ i thought we were FRIENDS. ’

head immediately surfaces from it’s duck, at her r i d i c u l o u s questions. he narrows his eyes at her, self consciously squeezing his cock through the thin BATES pants,  ‘  yes !  ‘  raphael SNAPS,  ‘  an’  it’s  not  an  it,  it’s  a  HIM... an’  y’hurt  his  feelin’s  ---  am  not  weird,  girls  are  weirder.  ‘ his eyes remain narrowed at her as she continues her TIRADE.  ‘  not  in  m’head  when  y’said  it  outloud.  ‘ here, it was a spectacle, a thirty year old arguing with a nineteen year old like they’re both twelve.  it  was your idea, his mind SCREAMS but he holds it back instead opting to roll his eyes,  ‘  no,  s’not..  ‘  he trails off, he’s very  u n c o m f o r t a b l e with crying, crocodile tears or otherwise,  ‘  c’mon,  stop  cryin’  !  m’not  y’er  master  it  ain’t  gonna  work  on  me  ‘

“There’s a lot of crying in the dorms.” Luci states with a shrug, teeth digging into her lower lip lightly. ‘Not that there’s anything wrong with crying. I guess I’m just not homesick. Kinda fucked up, if you think about it.” Twisting her hair around her fingers, she looks back at the other, the corners of her outh twitching up into a smile. “I’m Luci.” 

there’s a lot of crying in the dorms. SURE, raphael is probably guilty of some of it, but he usually keeps to himself and out of sight if he were to cry.  ‘  nah,  nah,  I  hear  ya,  I  understand  people  are  UNHAPPY  ‘bout  bein’  here  but  y’know  it  gets  old  when  everyone  is  upset.  it  really  kills  the  mood  ‘round  here.  ‘  he  returns with a SMALL smile of his own,  ‘  raphael  or  rafe,  whichever  one  y’prefer.  ‘

“ you ever hear the phrase ‘for pete’s sake’ ? same guy, ” she informs the man jokingly. keep it light and breezy, right ? she can do that. “ it’s fine. well. it’s not fine, but there’s nothing we can do about it. ” she can only hope the kids she worked with so closely and cared for so deeply will be alright without her.

‘  yeah  ---  yeah,  but  y’only  said  OH  PETE.  ‘  he’s still kind of confused, but yeah he guesses that it makes sense. ‘  I  uh---  I  feel  that,  m’sure  whatever  y’left  behind  will  be  okay.  ‘

sammy’s not really the kind of girl people think are funny. mean, sure, bitchy, yeah. most of the jokes she cracks are met with a roll of the eyes instead of genuine laughter. so rafe’s response is very much welcome, very much new. she beams at his compliment, a rare genuine ‘ thank you, ’ falling from her lips. ‘ i like you too. and - same. but with my shoulder, elbow, and knee, ’ she grins.

her almost GENUINE thank you, is enough to consider this a job well done. he got her to smile and laugh. not to mention she would be a ray of SUNSHINE among the pets, at least for him anyways. her continuation of the joke, has another fit of laughter strike him.  ‘  I  think  I’ll  just  settle  for  your  shoulder.  ‘

There were mixed reactions from around the room, but definitely none that were as extreme as the man she just laid her eyes on. Her wide smile softened as she realised why the scene may seem hilarious to some. “Are you comparing me to a janitor?” she laughed. It wasn’t a bad job, she used to be a part-time cleaner at places to earn extra money for herself. It was pretty interesting, and she honestly had nothing against them. 

“Say, why the hell must people make lives so hard for janitors? Like, these? Really?” she grimaced, pinching the garment with two fingers. It wasn’t a particularly nasty pair of panties, but it was wrecked, all right. Whoever had their way with these panties honestly had no sense of decorum whatsoever, leaving it lying out on the ground in a common room. “Gosh, irresponsible.”

her question has his laughter increasing, face flushing a deep CRIMSON,  ‘  no,  ‘  he manages out, definitely not comparing her to a JANITOR,  ‘  y’said  it  not  me.  ‘ raphael can appreciate those menial jobs, he knows what it’s like to work them for a bit, but it was hard to keep one when you’re homeless.

his laughter continued and the more he watches the way she was holding the underwear, her expression and the more she spoke. his hand covered his face--- he couldn’t look at the scene anymore and keep a COMPOSED face. muffled behind his hand,  ‘  we’re  in  a  sex  mansion,  there  are  a lot  of  ENTITLED  people  here.  ‘

watching him chug down the bottle of water like he hasn’t had anything to drink for days was amusing but at the same time alarming. did they even give them food to eat or did she just send herself to a different kind of death sentence? ‘ i can see that clearly now, ’ the woman announced as she leaned back against the counter. ‘ i heard from a little bird that we’re not really allowed here, are we? ’ assuming that he was a pet just like her. 

the older man tended to exaggerate his reactions to food & water--- it’s something he’s had to make due with in moderation but not here. here he can drink as much as he wants. calloused fingers hold the bottle and he screws the top back on before raising his gaze to meet hers. raphael leaned against the counter next to her,  ‘  technically,  we’re  not  allowed  in  here  but  I  sneak  water  out  all  the time,  m’the  OLDEST  pet  here  so  I  need  a  more  an’  water  usually  helps  me  sleep  at  night.  ‘

“I can’t imagine myself ever being able to just call someone master or whatever just because they paid a few bucks, so major props to guys on that. Especially when… when some of you probably never asked for this,” Chester mumbled as he thought back to Jude. “Chester’s good. Sir makes me feel weird. Unless you’re American Airlines. Damn right they should be calling me sir, they keep fucking up my flights. But anyway,” he gave a small shrug, “I guess. But I’m here to live it all out a bit, so going out of my comfort zone shouldn’t be a bad thing… right?”

‘  I  mean--- ‘ve  never  really  thought  ‘bout  it  that  way.  ‘ the words struck him, and he’s honestly confused. his mind & body often work against him, occasionally his mind & body would agree, SUBSPACE made that possible. ‘  i  don’t  mind  it  here,  ‘  raphael states after a few moments, except when he’s not getting attention because then his mood tanks--- he can BLAME his body for that one. ‘  chester,  okay,  ‘  it’s repeated as more of a reassurance to himself than anything. he chuckles rather dryly at the stab towards the airplane company,  ‘  wouldn’t  know,  never  been  on  a  plane.  ‘ not directed at him in hindsight but he feels the need to comment. his calloused hand wipes down the front of the BATES pants,   ‘  right. -- well  uh--  if  y’wanna  try  out  anythin’ ....  ‘  his voice goes rather quiet,  ‘  m’a  willin’  participant.  ‘

“Well, shit. Normally people don’t relate t’ me that well.” Or if they did, they didn’t talk about it. Back home, they were all too happy to share other people’s secrets and problems, but their own? Hell no. “If y’ start talkin’ about a dead dad, I’m callin’ this shit way too creepy and walkin’ off.” Talking about his dad, if the matter was pressed, was easier than talking about Maddox, anyway.

‘  y’should  never  give  up  on  people,  they  can  surprise  you,  ‘  it’s spoken from his experience about his sisters--- how they’d made their ways under FALSE pretenses, pretending to hate him as the rest of their family-line did.  ‘  nah,  nah,  I  mean  he’s  very  much  alive  but  does  DEAD  t’me  count?  ‘

         * & | THERE was something laughable in a guy nearly twice his age addressing him so formally, but seamus kept that to himself. as the other went on, seamus had to wonder just who had spread it around that HE was the person to go to when they wanted something. this wasn’t the first pet and likely wouldn’t be the last, but was this his growing reputation? the snappy guard that turned soft when asked for something nice? ‘ sure. it’s not like i haven’t done this before. ’

the answer leaves something to be DESIRED, but he’s not about to question it. raphael keeps to himself mostly if he can help it--- AGREEABLE & TIMID, it’s not often that he asked something of others ; even now he’s asking more so the guard can have time away from the craziness that seems to sometimes ensure around the mansion.  ‘  well.... I  uh---  figured  y’could  use  some  peace  and  quiet---  y’don’t  have  to  sir,  if  y’don’t  wanna,  I  don’t  wanna be a bother.  ‘

collinwho.

          long fingers card through mop of curls. he’s half-fallen asleep at his laptop, soft brown eyes fluttering shut for a tad too long. it’s not his fault - the couch is comfortable ! he’s still got more coding to do, but he’s tired - gaze lifts as someone else walks into the room though. sitting up a little straighter, sleepy brown eyes focus. ‘ do i go to sleep or do i finish what i was doing ? cause right now, i’m sort of in sleep limbo and i’m dying. ’ 

for as long as the younger man had been dozing off, he’d watched him--- it wasn’t a creepy thing or anything, he just liked how people looked PEACEFUL in their sleep. raphael doesn’t know peaceful sleep, he had once upon a time but l i f e happens. footsteps echo and he glances to the person walking by then back to collin as he stirs awake.  ‘  ‘pends,  what’re.... were  y’up too? ‘ he chuckles gently.

collinwho.

          he peers through long eyelashes to watch the older man pluck the navy blue tie from the common room floor. near awkward laugh escapes - he’d sort of been thinking the same thing, about restraints - but he’s never been great at saying things like that out loud so casually. ‘ i mean - yeah. you’re not wrong. i’ve only ever used ‘em like that a couple of times, but they’ve worked pretty well, ’ he muses. 

calloused thumb continues to run over the smooth SILK of the tie, coral muscle darts out to lick at his dry lips. the others confession is not surprising considering their last encounter---- they both seemed to have this TIMID nature about them.  ‘  well  uh---  if  y’er  ever  lookin’  for  ‘nother  v o l u n t e e r,  y’know  I’d  be  down.  ‘ it comes inexperience, he’s not usually around dominants who are like collin, not since he came here to BATES.

               Adria chuckled, “I actually did pay a million dollars, yeah,” she said looking at the man. and then looked at the man. He looked happy to be here– it was a relief from all the crying and whining pets. “You’re sweet,” she said with a grin. “But it gets a hit to your self esteem after a certain point, you know?”

well he knew it was expensive, guess he knew just how much now. it amazed him that people had this kind of money to just throw around--- then again this was a little more than just discarding it.  ‘  oh... ‘ is all the can think of to respond with.  raphael flushes a little bit at the comment, chooses to ignore it because he’s going to try something NEW alright, ignoring his body until it goes away.  ‘  at  the  risk  of  sounding  completely  corrupt,  maybe  uh---  orderin’  them  to.  but  it  seems  most  masters  an’  mistresses  want  the  CONSENT,  sometimes  people  just  need  a  push  though.  ‘

dressed in a simple tank and sweats, she didn’t care of her state of down dress as she answered the door. mila had no idea who would be on the other side but she was n o t disappointed. “ HEY. saw you at the party,” there was a natural pure to her voice, simultaneously friendly and flirtatious but every part welcoming as she flashed him a soft grin.

the door opened, pearly whites sunk into his lower lip as his eyes raked down her body and back up--- raphael is not one to worry about a lot of that superficial crap, she’s still just as beautiful. memory of that ONE night burned into his muscle memory, seeped into his bones and remained there ; just as everyone whose touched him in his past.  ‘  yeah,  ‘  he  responds, rather quietly, it’s not the reaction he was initially hoping for but it isn’t exactly a BAD one.  ‘  was  hopin’  you’d  remember  me.  ‘  cheers to not FUMBLING around with his words for once.

Mirela frowned at the knuckling on the dorm door, not used to that. Guards weren’t that gentle. Climbing out from the bed, she stopped half way to the door when she heard Raphael’s voice. She opened the door, and leaned back, the light hurting her eyes as she not expected to be that hungover, “Did we have sex?”, she chuckled, leaning against the door frame, “I’m sorry, I think I’m missing half of the events that happened last night”

she’s HUNGOVER, that much he can tell--- he doesn’t miss it, however, he does feel sympathy for her. the question has a laugh emit from FULL lips,  ‘  no --  no....  nothin’  like  that....  I  just,  ‘ he tilts his head, scratching lightly at the top of his hand.  ‘  I  just  wanted  t’thank  you  for  bein’  kind  t’me  ‘  it’s a DUMB gesture as some people would think. raphael has a K I N D soul though himself.

          * & | SHANE noticed when he thought too much. he got a particular look on his face and his silence created an uncomfortable pregnant pause, but they’d never interrupt or pry. if he needed to be in his own head, then they wouldn’t affect that to the best of their abilities. ‘ yeah, ’ the mumbled quietly, ‘ you can. it’s not uncommon. you could do it too, i’m sure. haven’t you gotten close with anyone? ’ biting their lip, the blonde had to shake their head. ‘ trust me, most people here call me GIRL and i just am too tired to correct them. i’m not really looking for love though, rafe, it’s okay. i’m just looking to get fucked. ’ there was something sad about the words, but shane, per usual, ignored any ill feelings that might arise.

      nodding,shane feels like a child about to be scolded. gingerly, the teen sits down, wondering if they should tell him he doesn’t have to do this. they could go look at the clouds and try to describe the thins they see or find someone to let them watch a movie or go swimming instead, but in true fashion, the blonde stays quiet with their head ducked. ‘ i said something wrong, didn’t i? ’

idly raphael wondered if people could read his mind--- it was an IRRATIONAL thought, he paused often enough when he was speaking as if he was trying to reach out in the dark and grasp the correct words because he’s so afraid of uttering the WRONG thing. they ask if he’s gotten close to anyone and he once again has to halt...--- ROSA immediately comes to mind,  ‘  yeah,  ‘  he  responds,  ‘  but  I  don’t  know  if  CLAIMIN’  me  is  somethin’  she’d  be  interested  in,  m’d a m a g e d and most people want a shiny, NEW  toy. ‘   it feels like a rather melancholy statement, but that’s how it outwardly appeared. ‘  m’sorry,  ‘  it’s GENUINE, he means it, it’s almost d e g r a d i n g when people don’t pay attention and are deadset in toxic ways & mindsets like that.  the tail end of their words, has him SMALL smiling,  ‘  gettin’  F U C K E D  is,  s’nice,  I  can  relate  t’that  on  a  personal  level.  ‘ there was nothing WRONG with having a high sexual libido, some people were just wired that way  ;  he doesn’t comment further since the others tone trails off with tinged despondence.

the smile doesn’t f a l t e r from his lips, but he expels a GENTLE sigh as he waits for the petite blonde to settle in next to him.  ‘  no,  no...  ‘  he quickly assures them,  ‘  it’s  just--- I  don’t  normally  talk  ‘bout  my  past....  I  feel  like  it’s  good  for  me  even  when  I  just  talk  ‘bout  parts  of  it. ‘ raphael glances at them,  ‘  I  promise  y’didn’t  do  or  say  anythin’, ‘  he pauses, then after a brief moment of silence,  ‘  y’still  wanna  know?  ‘
