Summary:
“Hey, hypothetically,” Robert asked. He was doing arm curls with his hand weights on the bench Flambae had delegated as his. “If someone wanted advice on how to get better at building muscle, what would they do?”
“Is that someone a pathetic normie who can’t even jump rope for two minutes?”
Robert rolled his eyes. “He is a regular normie who is kind of regretting asking a flaming asshole.”
“You wish you saw my flaming asshole,” Flambae shot back, before continuing his pulls. “It depends on what that normie wants to achieve.”
“Well he—fuck it. Look, just what would you suggest I do? Since I’m so, so weak and can’t handle things myself. I’m all ears. Most of them.”
Robert and Flambae begin the arduous journey of bonding. Only one of them is aware they are dating. It is not Flambae.
