(Vet!Legs/frogboiled timeline) I keep circling around what Legs would think about the thrall, and I realized (esp in that timeline) that Legs would *also* be going round and round on what he thinks of it. And eventually, driven by concern (how long does it last? Is it distressing, is it causing some form of damage?) and curiosity (what does it Feel Like? this is a whole new branch of potential research no one's ever had the chance to do) and other motivations Legs chooses to believe aren't there, he asks Louis if it would be possible to have a very small amount of his blood. To get a better sense of what's going on with his patient!! And certainly not because every time he goes to sleep he remembers the way Owen's face faded from frantic rage to dark-eyed placidity.
Louis stares, asks him repeatedly if he's sure? Clarifies that he will of course just have Legs sit there on the couch until the thrall runs out, but he understands that this is a personal risk - but worth it, if it will assist with Owen's care.
Anyways there are two ways this goes, and the first way is Normal and is just: being puppeted briefly to lay back on the couch and cooed over by a concerned Louis for a few minutes -> new thing to fantasize about/feel guilty for fantasizing about in the privacy of his own home
And the SECOND which is a very #mybonar way is that Legs, high off the thrall and with most of his inhibitions removed, clings to Louis as all of the higher functions of his brain seem to wink out, like lights drawn temporarily behind a curtain. And then Legs slides down, body lax and slow, until he's on the ground, head resting against Louis' knee and arms wrapped around his legs. He isn't sure when he got hard, but he starts humping Louis' shoe almost absentmindedly, whining low in his throat.
And then Louis takes control of his body, *stops him*, gently and regretfully explains that they didn't talk about that before the thrall so he'll need to put a stop to it. Pulls Legs back up onto the couch like he weighs nothing, and pets his hand and arm until the thrall runs its course.
Legs is MORTIFIED once he comes back up, makes his excuses as quickly as he possibly can (Louis wants to *dote* out of concern/aftercare. He's very matter-of-fact about bodies and sex, which is usually appreciated but is creating a sort of a personal hell for Legs at the moment) and skedaddling. And THEN going home, trying to write some kind of actual case notes on the experience for all of five minutes, before going and jerking off about it.
Also it's up to interpretation if Louis both made him do that And made him stop, or if Legs really is just puppy at heart. And also if, with the lingering connection of the thrall Louis can Tell what Legs goes off and does and is like. Hmmmm okay maybe this frog is getting pretty warm actually. Okay sendpost

OH MY GOD. OHHHHH MY GOD. IM. GUUGHBGBHGBHBGH MY COUVID
i mean what. yeah. oh my god fuck that’s so hot. you knowwww i’m always here for puppy legundo realness and YEAH, louis absolutely wants to dote on him after, i think he Worries a lot when legs runs off and unfortunately for legs this isn’t one of those things i can see louis just letting go, i think at Least the next time they see each other louis pulls him aside and is like listen. it’s fine im not upset. i understand and i’m not going to fault you for anything that happened while you were under, it was your first time and i probably should’ve explained better what to expect. (also i think louis feels bad because regardless of whether or not it actually affected legs in the moment, the image of doc on his knees is uhhh fresh out of louis’ wet dreams and he’s trying really hard to be normal about it. bc he’s a gentleman)
legs is of course So Fucking Mortified but louis won’t let him apologize and keeps insisting there’s no harm done, except there IS harm done because now legs keeps Thinking about it and Wanting things and come on he’s NOT allowed to do that??? that should be illegal.
good news though! in addition to legs being unbearably horny i do think he is less completely on edge about whatever louis and owen have going on, not even necessarily because of the experience of being thralled but because louis has been so cautious about all this in the first place and because louis stopped him when legs started doing shit they didn’t agree upon first, it would’ve been so easy for louis to just kinda let him go ahead and hide behind the plausible deniability of like “hey i didn’t tell you to do all that. you started that shit all by yourself” and shirk responsibility for it, a concept that does also make legs extremely hard. another thing he will feel guilty about and never admit to
