Cam: still don't get why that was bad, I was feeling pretty nice yesterday ._.
Cam: you don't need to worry tho, I'm back to my asshole self according to Alise 😛
Cam: how are you?
Freddie: Good. I'm glad to hear that
Freddie: cause you were high as kite. You weren't your normal self, and it freaked out your brother to the point he called me so that's not a good thing in my book
Freddie: besides, you always say you have a reputation to keep and I'm pretty sure that doesn't include you being submissive in public
Freddie: Poor Alise. We freaked her out too when we told her you had food reaction so I could take you back to your place
Freddie: be nice to her, she was worried even if she had no idea
Freddie: I'm ok. Kinda upset with myself but that's to be expected
Cam: wait, is that why you came over to pick me up?
Cam: bc Dev called you????
Cam: ...fair point
Cam: I'll be nice
Cam: I'm sorry, I'm the one who clung to that high
Cam: I didn't think it'd be so bad
Cam: or noticeable
Cam: please don't be upset with yourself 🫂 I had such an awesome time at your place, I'd be devastated if it was tainted in your mind
Freddie: Yes. Devon sounded very worried and it made me worry something had happened
Freddie: but when I saw you I knew exactly what it was and obviously I didn't tell your brother, I only assured him I hadn't drugged you and that it was a normal reaction
Freddie: Good. Thanks
Freddie: it's ok. I understand why you did it. I'd rather you not to when you're supposed to go back to your normal days
Freddie: We're gonna have to be careful with how high we let you float. Maybe we should sleep the way we did last time, I think maybe that was part of why you were still feeling so floaty
Freddie: Cam, when you submit to me, it's my responsibility to keep you safe and bring you back completely and this is the second time I have failed it. Of course I'm upset
Freddie: Don't worry, I'm not regretting anything we did or feel bad about any of it. It's just the fact that I missed the signs again and that puts you at risk and I want you to be safe
Cam: oh! that's why he was so convinced I had been bitten by a vamp! I thought it was just bc of the bite mark on my shoulder
Cam: thanks for not telling him tho
Cam: ...but I really liked sleeping like that ): once the torture part went away, it was absurdly cozy
Cam: I'm really sorry, I didn't think it'd be dangerous or anything, I just
Cam: I guess I just wanted it to last a little longer
Cam: but I won't hold onto it anymore, if I'm not supposed to, when I'm alone
Cam: I understand 🫂
Freddie: yeah. it was a similar reaction or at least the one he knows from Adam. I'm hoping he didn't see your shoulder
Freddie: nothing to thank me for. I'm aware it's not something you want anyone to know
Freddie: other than Trevor I suppose
Freddie: I did too but it's not something we can do that often. At least not when you have to go back to your normal day the next morning
Freddie: it's dangerous cause if someone else knows and notices, they can try to take advantage of you, and I'd never want that
Freddie: I know, but I trust next time you feel needy to want to stay floating you'll tell me, and we'll figure it out ok?
Freddie: thanks
Freddie: did you have lunch already?
Cam: I can't say I remember if he did, but why would it be bad if he had? I mean, it's just a bite, not something like my collar
Cam: yeah lol have I told you Trev asked me about it? like, logistics and all, seemed possibly kinda into it o.o
Cam: ...we should take some vacation time then, to have a hide away like that (:
Cam: oh
Cam: that makes sense
Cam: it was actually kinda hard to say no to people that morning, now that you mention it 🤔
Cam: I will 🫂 and I'm sorry
Cam: I haven't yet, no, why?
Freddie: I don't know. I just didn't think it was something you'd want him to know about
Freddie: you really liked the collar, didn't you?
Freddie: really? did you give him any details?
Freddie: that sounds great... there would be a strict no clothes rule tho
Freddie: yeah, that's exactly why cause it's hard to focus and you're easily convinced of things, you're not completely aware to consent anything. That's why I always tell you what we'll do and explain everything before you're floating, so you're fully conscious and that's why you have safe words
Freddie: it's ok baby
Freddie: you need to eat something and keep drinking water. That'll help you focus better
Cam: I'd rather he doesn't know about the power dynamic part, but I'd never hide your marks on me
Cam: I did (:
Cam: I was a bit vague, but yeah, I hope that's ok? He was very curious about it, he just never trusted someone enough to try it out
Cam: obviously, my bag would be packed with just protein bars and lube lol
Cam: that makes A LOT of sense
Cam: I know you don't believe it much rn, but you really are wonderful at taking care of me, did I ever tell you that?
[five minutes later]
[screen shot of an Ifood order of a beef shawarma, followed by a close up picture of a plastic cup with water]
Cam: on it!
Freddie: well for me it's part of it that's why I thought you didn't want him to see the marks either
Freddie: good. I'm glad cause it was custom made just for you
Freddie: it's ok. He's smart not to try it with someone he didn't trust enough. it can get dangerous, and some people abuse of the power dynamic
Freddie: just lube. I'll make sure to feed you
Freddie: I know I'm not good at explaining myself most of the time but I'm glad you see why I do the things the way I do
Freddie: thanks baby, I'm glad you think so
Freddie: Good boy! I'm glad you're eating some protein, it'll help with the sore arms
Cam: omg was it really?? now it feels even more special
Cam: I'd imagine so. So it was just you know, harmless curiosity I think
Cam: lmao alright then just a gym bag full of lube
Cam: you're getting better at that lately 😛 but yes, I do (most of the time)
Cam: (:
Cam: oh LEMME TELL YOU ABOUT SORE
Cam: as long as I'm with you, I'm never hitting the gym AGAIN
Cam: Jesus Christ on a unicycle, every muscle in my body feels like I've gone through a massive work out
Cam: AND I JUST STAYED STILL FREDDIE
Freddie: it is special. I've never given anyone a collar before
Freddie: I don't think it's so harmless... have you asked him what role he feels more attracted to?
Freddie: lmao sounds extreme but it will do
Freddie: good, I' glad about that
Freddie: whoever said staying still requires no effort has clearly never done it
Freddie: but it's a good sore? one you'd like to feel again?
Freddie: what about your ass? is it sore too?
Cam: really? wow
Cam: well, I've never received one before either, so 😊
Cam: oh, Trevor is on my side of the spectrum, don't worry lol he's not stealing me from you anytime soon
Cam: definitely, I'm gonna get very defined muscles just by behaving, wait and see lol
Cam: yes, it's a sore like when you have a bruise, you know? a good sore
Cam: my ass is a bit more delicate lol but it's good, it just aches a bit depending on what I do
Cam: but thankfully my office chair is very comfortable lol
Cam: did your neck heal?
Freddie: see? then it is special
Freddie: I kinda figured but I didn't want to assume
Freddie: He's probably more submissive than you
Freddie: not like you need it, you are perfectly defined already
Freddie: good
Freddie: sorry, maybe we should have gotten longer breaks
Freddie: good. I'm glad it is comfortable
Freddie: it did. It was already healed yesterday but you didn't notice
Cam: as if I'd have been collared before, when I told you I've never done something like this before you lmao
Cam: I'd think so, at least with me he is, but I don't want to assume you know?
Cam: pfff no need to compliment my looks handsome, you've already got me in your bed 😛
Cam: I don't think it has so much to do with breaks, it's more like I'm not used to be in that position 🤔 but my body will get used to it in no time!
Cam: if we keep having those kinds of sessions, I mean
Cam: oh that's good, I didn't mean to hurt you
Freddie: Well I know you haven't that's why I figured it should be perfect and unique just for you
Freddie: really? well that's interesting
Freddie: I'm not. I'm just stating facts
Freddie: we'll try different positions next time
Freddie: did you like the bondage bar?
Freddie: we will if you want us to
Freddie: it's ok, you didn't hurt me. It feels good
Cam: I loved it :3 tho I was sad I had to take it off .-.
Cam: ...why interesting?
Cam: in that case, thanks :3
Cam: was that the thing on the ceiling? it was really different, I think, to be hanging o.o but a fun different
Cam: I think it made me feel a lot more vulnerable than usual, and that's saying a lot
Cam: of course I want to, have you not been listening this whole time? lmao
Freddie: maybe if you're good you'll earn one that you can wear under your clothes, tho you'd have to talk about it with Trevor first cause those can be taken out of contexts as a sign of property
Freddie: cause I'm having a hard time see you dominating him
Freddie: 😉
Freddie: yeap! I remember you said you didn't want to be hanging upside down but there are many way to be hanging up 😏
Freddie: was it a bad feeling? were you uncomfortable or scared at any time?
Freddie: no, I am, just making sure
Freddie: we did say we wouldn't be assuming things
Cam: wait are you serious????
Cam: Cam: lmao oh no not like that! it's just that
Cam: when it's me and Trevor, usually I’m the one in charge
Cam: and he relishes giving up control to me in bed, and I like to make him lose it, so I don't have a problem taking that control, even if now I know it's not my nature with you, idk if that makes sense?
Cam: but it's nothing kinky or proper with safewords or anything, just us both having fun
Cam: not at all! I thought I’d be more scared of it, tbh, being bound like that but turns out I really trust you
Cam: like actually, really really trust you
Cam: so I wasn't scared at all, just vulnerable
Cam: but I knew you'd have my back no matter what happened, so it was really nice
Cam: really intimate
Cam: and for the sake of not assuming things, lemme type it out so you can print screen it and check it whenever you doubt it:
Cam: our last session was my favorite so far, I wouldn't change a thing about it (even if I complain about being sore or tired, I still liked being sore and tired for you)
Freddie: I am but you'd have to earn it. That's not one that is given just because. And you need to clear it out with Trevor first
Freddie: interesting... it sounds like something I'd like to see
Freddie: it doesn't have to be kinky. Our very first session was not kinky at all. It's all just about the trust and control
Freddie: good. That's a really good thing. I'm glad you know in the end I'm really taking care of you
Freddie: that's good to hear. It was my favorite so far too
Cam: I’ll be extra good then!!
Cam: wait, back up a moment, you'd like to see it? like, me and Trevor or...?
Cam: true true, god, that sounds like it was ages ago
Cam: you're always taking care of me, I know that (:
Cam: was it what you expected it'd be?
Freddie: Good. We'll see then 😏
Freddie: yeap. I'd like to see you taking charge with someone more submissive than you
Freddie: but it's just a comment. It's not like it's an option
Freddie: for me it feels like it was just yesterday. I have a very vivid memory
Freddie: good
Freddie: it overpassed my expectations
Cam: I mean
Cam: it might be an option
Cam: if you would actually want it to be
Cam: well, you've lived for ages, so it makes sense that a few months ago feels like the other day for you
Cam: it feels like a long time ago for me bc I feel like I’m not the same person I was that day
Cam: bc I’ve discovered so many things about myself since then
Cam: oh really? how so?
Freddie: are you saying that just because you have an exhibitionism strike? Cause I think it's something you'd have to talk with Trevor first
Freddie: yeah that actually happens. sometimes time get blurred together
Freddie: good things I hope
Freddie: are you fishing for compliments now?
Freddie: you were fantastic. You gave in so perfectly and so naturally that every single second of it was pleasure
Cam: of course I’d have to talk to Trevor first lol, but I have the feeling he's still curious about it all, so if it's something you're interested and he also is, it could be an option
Cam: if you'd like it to be an option
Cam: the best things (:
Cam: I’m actually really not fishing for compliments, I just
Cam: idk I wanted to know if you felt what I did, I guess
Cam: thank you tho (: for the compliments
Freddie: Good. Just mention it to him. I have the feeling he has that exhibitionism strike too
Freddie: or maybe he's a Voyeurs and he'd like to watch
Freddie: and I'd be ok with that too
Freddie: good! I'm glad
Freddie: I know, I was teasing you
Freddie: well it doesn't feel the same, but it was probably just as pleasurable for me as it was for you if not more
Freddie: you're welcome baby boy
Cam: fuck ok I need to ask this in the most straight-forward way possible so we're clear
Cam: there's a difference between being ok and wanting something
Cam: would that be something you'd want to do, or something you'd be ok doing, Freddie? Like, getting Trevor involved in something like this
Cam: considering it's something he'd like to do, as well, I mean
Cam: you're mean!!! you know how I get with those kinds of compliments!!!
Cam: "if not more"!?
Freddie: I can't say that I want your partner in any way but if it's something YOU want and you'd like and it would make you happy, I'd be very much ok with it
Freddie: is it something you'd like?
Freddie: I'm not being mean! I was honest
Freddie: well I enjoyed it immensely and it really surpassed my expectations by far
Cam: when you put it like this, it sounds like something crazy I’m offering
Cam: I think so? I mean, it's embarrassing, but we've been over how I might have a slightly exhibitionist thingy going on
Cam: if the subject comes up, I’ll talk to him about it and see what he thinks
Cam: thanks for always being so accommodating to me
Cam: no no I meant like
Cam: if it was more pleasurable to you than it was to me, I’m pretty sure you'd be dead, Freddie lol
Freddie: it's not crazy. It's something some couples do. It's not new to me but it might be for you or him
Freddie: ok. It's totally up to you Cam
Freddie: nothing to thank me for
Freddie: well I am immortal so 😏
Cam: have you done it before? in a Ds setting, this kind of thing with someone watching?
Cam: EXACTLY
Cam: that's how much you made me feel good, you'd be DEAD FREDDIE
Freddie: not on a Ds context, no but I've been part threesomes and origies
Freddie: lol good thing you'll never have to worry about it
Cam: what am I asking, you're basically the god of horniness, of course you've been to orgies lmao
Cam: true, my Freddie is the most unbreakable of Freddies (:
Freddie: Origies we're very common back in the day
Freddie: 😆 that's probably true
Cam: see? I'm right all around today
Cam: done!
Cam: [picture of shawarma wrappers and an empty plastic cup]
Cam: now, sadly, I need to go back to work 💔
Cam: ttyl?
Freddie: definitely sharper today
Freddie: good boy! I'm glad you're fed and focused
Freddie: it's ok. I'll have to go to work too. I'm gonna be out of town the rest of the week btw
Freddie: but I'll text you when I get back ok?
Freddie: you can text me, but time zone might make it a bit complicated, but I'll reply
Freddie: be good!
Cam: oh ok!
Cam: I'll keep that in mind, thanks for letting me know
Cam: I hope you have fun on your trip, even if it's work 😛
Cam: I'll be waiting to hear all about it when you're back 🫂
Freddie: sorry I was MIA, things got crazy busy with both jobs and the finding a place and then moving and it's been more chaotic than I expected
Freddie: hope you're ok, and specially not overthinking and blaming yourself cause you promised to be a good boy 😉
Cam: Freddie!
Cam: hi!
Cam: me overthinking? pffffffff
Cam: 😇
Cam: did you find a place?
Freddie: does it mean I'll have to punish you for not behaving as you promised?
Freddie: I did, I'm still finishing some touches but it's almost ready
Freddie: I'll send you the address as soon as it's all done
Freddie: how have you been¡
Cam: punish me??? but I’ve been the best boy!
Cam: I even did my homework
Cam: which, by the way, amounted to 42 kisses and 5 fucks
Cam: just saying
Cam: can't wait to see it!
Cam: I’ve been a bit bummed out tbh, but it's all better now
Cam: how about you? having fun decorating the new place?
Freddie: I'll ask Trevor just to make sure
Freddie: lmao! Good, I'm glad you're taking count tho you probably omitted the spanks
Freddie: ah! I knew it. I told you not to worry, I just needed to handle this, and I did tell you beforehand, so you didn't think I was ignoring you
Freddie: I'm fine. I'm not, I like how the place is, I'm just getting some furniture and brought my stuff from the hotel last night so I'm waiting for a few things to arrive, and it'll be set
Cam: ...okay fine, maybe I did overthink a bit, but Trevor helped me to stop
Cam: I don't choose the spanks; those are not my department 💅
Cam: I know!!! and I thank you a lot for it, it was the reason why I could get out of that spiral at some point, just
Cam: old habits die hard
Cam: but I am trying
Cam: oooh! so I’ll be able to come over in a couple of days then?
Freddie: That's good to hear. I'm glad he helped
Freddie: well a really good boys also knows when they don't behave right and when they deserve some spanks so...
Freddie: it's ok, I figured it would be hard cause you were taking a blame you didn't deserve, and you've done that before, so I figure it was a normal response from you when things go south
Freddie: I know, I'm proud of you for that
Freddie: tho I did miss hear from you, I figured you'd reach out, but I understand that probably you tried to give me space
Freddie: hopefully, yeah, if you want to of course
Cam: true... ok maybe I’m not such a good boy then
Cam: thank you
Cam: I missed talking to you, but I figured if you said you'd be a bit unreachable, me bugging you could mess something up
Cam: and I said I’d wait, right? so I waited
Cam: I’d love to!
Freddie: well but good boys earn their good status by behaving and accepting their punishment, but I'll let it pass this one-time cause of the distress 😘
Freddie: I appreciate that you gave me some space. If something like this happens again, don't hesitate to reach out. It might take me a bit, but I'll reply
Freddie: that's true, you did
Freddie: good! I'll send the address later today or tomorrow
Cam: you're the best 🫰🏼
Cam: ok!
Cam: ok!!!!
Cam: in the meantime tho
Cam: you're working tonight?
Cam: bc even tho you're this immortal super being, your vessel probably needs to rest too
Freddie: I know 😏
Freddie: not working tonight
Freddie: I've been resting. I meant it that you didn't have to worry. Maya let me borrow her apartment while I found my own so don't think I was struggling that much
Freddie: how was work? You didn't have another argument with Warren did you? I know his support is important for your project and I don't want that to be affected because he and I don't always see things eye to eye
Cam: well if you're not working, you're more than welcome to come over (:
Cam: I mean, I know how messy things get while moving, and I happen to have a warm bed with loads of space
Cam: we did
Cam: but I stand by what I said
Cam: and he didn't pull out of the project yet, so that's promising
Cam: work has been slow; we sent out a bunch of documents and I'm just waiting for signatures
Cam: just the boring part of being a lawyer I guess
Freddie: well that's sounds nice, only if I bring dinner. It's the least I could do after such a nice invitation
Freddie: Cameron. Please don't do that. Whatever are the problems between me and my brother shouldn't affect you. Especially with your job.
Freddie: hope you get everything back with the signatures you need
Freddie: any news on the kid you wanted to adopt?
Cam: you've got yourself a deal (: what are you in the mood for?
Cam: it's not light we're fighting! It was just a divergence of opinions
Cam: and it was not because of you either!
Cam: thanks
Cam: I'm not "adopting" her, just being her legal guardian, and YES! I'm seeing if I can bring her over for Thanksgiving (: I'm really excited about it
Cam: she's never been in a town with so many spn people before
Freddie: You. But you can choose dinner
Freddie: still. Don't make him your enemy please
Freddie: isn't that the same thing?
Freddie: that sounds nice
Freddie: hope it's not overwhelming for her
Cam: 🙈
Cam: Chinese?
Cam: don't plan to!
Cam: yeah, but with one I have a kid calling me Cameron and the other calling me dad
Cam: and I'm not exactly dad material 😛
Cam: thanks! I hope so too
Cam: I plan on introducing her slowly, so she makes friends around town and has people to hang out with during the holidays
Cam: do you have plans for Thanksgiving?
Freddie: what? Are you blushing now?
Freddie: Chinese it is
Freddie: ok good point
Freddie: how are you so sure about that?
Freddie: it's sounds good
Freddie: you do realize I don't celebrate holidays, right?
Cam: no??
Cam: I'm not exactly a good influence
Cam: or have any of the stability a kid need
Cam: well yeah but I can't imagine the bar will have any movement on Thanksgiving so I figured you'd have the day off
Cam: have you ever eaten Thanksgiving dinner? I think you'd like it
Freddie: ok, I'll believe that you're not blushed nor hard
Freddie: who says that?
Freddie: vampires don't celebrate the holidays either
Freddie: not on Thanksgiving but it's just another day for me really
Freddie: I assume everyone else in town has plans already so the best plan for me is to go through it as any other day
Cam: I didn't say anything about hard
Cam: idk it's kinda common sense
Cam: oh right
Cam: well
Cam: would you like to have plans for Thanksgiving?
Freddie
Freddie: and like it better when you're hard AND blushed
Freddie: it's not
Freddie: I don't really care. It's just like any other day for me tho this is the first time in actually in human form for it
Freddie: it's really doesn't really matter to me
Cam: guess you're gonna have to come around to find out 🙃
Cam: welp
Cam: I'll save you a plate of the traditional Thanksgiving dinner for when you get home from work then (:
Freddie: I'll be there in a bit. Need to get dinner first
Freddie: you really don't have to
Freddie: I figured you had plans with your family
Cam: ok!
Cam: what? the traditional Thanksgiving experience ™ is not about who's around, is all about the food, everybody knows that
Cam: not really, but I think dev and Adam might come over for dinner
Cam: we're not exactly an orthodox family lol
Freddie: like I said, I've tried all that before but not during the festivities
Freddie: well you have a brother, a brother-in-law, and a boyfriend. Seems like a family worth spending Thanksgiving with
Cam: and a guardianship over a teenage angel lol
Cam: but yeah I get it
Cam: btw, you can just pop inside if you'd like (: I'm gonna set the table
Cam: and yes, no dinner in bed tonight bc I know you and we're not gonna get around to eating if we do that lol
Freddie: true. A kid in the mix. Sounds like a perfect family setting for the festivities
Freddie: Hey. Sorry I didn't text you earlier, Got busy with some stuff
Freddie: yeah, I'm alright
Freddie: Are you?
Cam: busy fighting with warren?
Cam: I’m glad you're alright
Cam: I was worried
Cam: why wouldn't I be?
Freddie: nah, that was quick
Freddie: don't be. I'm fine
Freddie: Just making sure
Cam: I’m glad it was quick, at least
Cam: but I’m sad I couldn't kiss you .-.
Cam: I’m gonna ask for a refund on this afternoon lol
Freddie: there was not much to say
Freddie: sorry, I didn't want to hurt you
Freddie: I'm gonna be a little busy and probably out of reach for a few days
Cam: oh ok
Cam: I’ll just write down whenever I want to kiss you
Cam: or touch you
Cam: and then we go through that list once you're back (:
Cam: are you traveling for work?
Freddie: that sounds good. We'll keep track
Freddie: Not really. I'm looking for a place to stay.
Freddie: I need to find an apartment as soon as possible
Freddie: I can't stay in the hotel anymore, I've abused my stay for far too long
Cam: was it bc of the fight?
Cam: you're welcome to stay at my place while you look for an apartment, if you'd like
Cam: that way you can leave asap
Cam: I’m sorry it has come to this
Cam: I can't help but feeling responsible since I was the one who told you about the texts
Freddie: it wasn't a fight
Freddie: and not really, I just feel like the more he helps me, the more he feels he has the right to get involved in my personal life so if that's the cost I don't want it
Freddie: Absolutely not. Thanks for the offer but no, thank you.
Freddie: I already left
Freddie: My stuff is there but I need to move it as soon as possible
Freddie: it's not your fault
Freddie: Cameron, this isn't your fault and please don't take this in a wrong way but it's not about you
Cam: ah that makes sense
Cam: ok, the offer still stands if you change your mind, my couch is always free if you need to crash somewhere
Cam: I know it's not about me, but I worry about you and about messing things up for you
Cam: you seem distressed, and I wish I could help, that's all
Cam: but I get it if quiet would help more
Cam: I’ll be here if you want to talk though, ok? or just hang out or anything
Freddie: I really appreciate it, but I don't want to keep relying on others
Freddie: you're not messing anything up
Freddie: I'm not. I'm fine
Freddie: just lemme figure this out and I'll reach out when it's all sorted out ok? I promise I'll reach out as soon as I have a place of my own
Cam: I understand
Cam: ok I believe you
Cam: I'll wait for you
Cam: in the meantime, please take care?
Freddie: Thanks
Freddie: Good
Freddie: Don't be upset. I'm fine and cheer up cause you'll be the first one who'll see my new place 😉
Freddie: I will. Take case too, and don't torture yourself, nothing of this is your fault ok?
Warren: I'm pretty sure this isn't my business and maybe I was too quick to judge widow I warned you about my brother and his lack of feelings but, aren't you dating the nephilim?
Cam: oh hi warren!
Cam: I'm not sure I understand the question
Cam: but yes, I am dating Trevor
Cam: why do you ask?
Warren: cause I saw you earlier making out with my brother in an alley
Warren: I thought I should warn you about Freddie cause you might get hurt around him but now I'm thinking maybe more people might get hurt and it might not be because of him
Cam: what
Cam: I'm sorry, I'm not following
Cam: what do you mean by that?
Warren: Cameron, Freddie is dangerous. Very dangerous. More than me. Probably as dangerous as Gilmore
Warren: so maybe it is not such a great idea to keep doing whatever you're doing with him while you're dating someone else
Cam: but he knows about it
Cam: and it's not like he'd be jealous
Cam: since we have a no-feelings thing
Cam: so it's fine
Cam: you don't have to worry
Warren: Cameron, you're not dumb. I don't do business with dumb people and I'm pretty sure I'm doing business with you.
Warren: just because I said my brother couldn't feel things the same as you do, didn't mean he doesn't feel things at all
Warren: we tend to lean on the negative feelings so maybe he won't declare his love for you with roses and ask you to choose him, but it can definitely get ugly if he feels like he needs to compete for your attention
Cam: he told me himself I shouldn't expect love from him, Warren
Cam: I'm not stupid, Freddie just always says what he means
Cam: so he means it
Cam: and we have a good communication system
Cam: so if me dating Trevor bothered him, he'd tell me
Cam: besides, he knows he doesn't have to compete for my attention, they both do
Cam: thank you for caring but you really don't have to worry!
Warren: did you tell him that you're dating Trevor?
Cam: he knows we're going out for a while now
Warren: going out, fucking and dating are three different things
Cam: we have named it dating just a few days ago
Cam: the subject of the title change haven't come up
Warren: one thing about Freddie is that he loves rules. I'm sure you've noticed
Warren: he has very strong morals and I'm sure he's not gonna want to keep messing around with you if/when he finds out you're in a relationship
Cam: it's not a monogamous relationship
Warren: it's not me who you should be explaining it to
Cam: but he knows that!
Cam: you're the one questioning it
Warren: does he know things change with Trevor?
Warren: all in saying is that he's not gonna take good to find there are things you're not telling him
Warren: and trust me, no one, absolutely no one wants to have an upset Freddie around
Cam: it's not like I'm hiding from him
Cam: I just figured it'd be awkward to bring that up out of nowhere without the subject coming up
Cam: that it'd be disrespectful
Cam: you sound like you're afraid of him
Warren: of course I am! Everyone should be!
Warren: why do you think I didn't want him around?
Warren: he and Pestilence have the power to kill everyone in town with one tantrum and without breaking a sweat
Warren: and fine! I'm might not kill me and just really damage my vessel but there are people here who I really care about
Cam: he's not as emotionally immature as you think, he doesn't throw tantrums
Cam: he just gets confused sometimes, but things get solved talking
Cam: but I'm sure you know that
Cam: if it makes you feel better, I'll tell him about dating Trevor
Cam: but since we're giving unsolicited advice, I think you should talk to your brother too, you know?
Cam: feeling things is new to him, you're the only one of the four who could help him in that transition
Cam: but who am I to say anything anyway, right?
Warren: so just because you're fucking him you think you know him?
Warren: are you sure it's me who doesn't want to talk? Are you really so sure it's me who avoids talking about feelings?
Warren: I offered him a job where he needs to interact with humans in need so he could ignite his humanity
Warren: I offered him a place to stay. A place for his horse. A seat in my table
Warren: so maybe think again before trying to call me out on not being a better brother
Cam: I'm not saying you're a bad brother, I'm saying sometimes it's good to put names to things
Cam: and you're the only person who could help him do that safely, I'm assuming
Cam: but again, that's just us trading unsolicited advice, right?
Cam: anyway, don't worry about me talking about feelings with Freddie, we did already and he was blatant with his opinion on those not interfering with our kind of friendship
Cam: so they won't
Cam: but still, just to set your mind at ease, I'll tell him about me and Trevor
Cam: you don't deserve to fear for your loved ones, especially not because of me
Warren: the thing is that Freddie is unstable with you or without you go in the picture
Warren: the thing is that you have the potential to help him become more stable, but I'm not sure if that's gonna work. That's why I'm asking you to be careful
Warren: last time I said this was cause I was worried he might hurt you but now I'm worry that if you hurt him we're all fucked
Cam: I'd love to help him, but I can only do as much as he lets me
Cam: I'd never intend on hurting him
Cam: and part of me keeps reminding me that to be hurt he'd have to have feelings in the first place, which he told me time and time again he doesn't
Cam: not that I believe it, anyway
Cam: but yes, I understand what you mean
Cam: so be assured the city is safe if I have any say in it
Warren: He let you meet his horse so if you still believe he feels nothing then you're really dumb and again, I know you're not
Warren: I'm not sure you have that much power honestly
Cameron
Cam: it's easier to tell myself he doesn't
Cam: I don't have to, as long as he believes that I do
Cam: thanks for the heads-up tho
Warren: denial has never made it better when it comes to feeling. Trust me, I've been there and the one I love had to get hurt for both of us to get it
Warren: anytime. Just be careful
Cam: well I've been hurt already, it wasn't enough to awake anything in him
Cam: so that doesn't seem promising
Cam: I'll be
Warren: ok. I was wrong. You're not dumb, you're stupid
Warren: he killed a vampire. And not just any vampire. It was one who had been sired by one of the big clans in town
Warren: he warned me about it, so I didn't let it become a war
Warren: he fucking put a price on the head of any vampire who gets near you or your brother
Warren: he didn't even fucking avenged me when they killed my vessel in the battlefield!
Cam: oh
Cam: I didn't know that
Cam: I mean, I knew he killed the guy and warned people but
Cam: I don't know what to say
Cam: I keep trying to logic my way out of it and say I'm just seeing things when there aren't any but
Cam: he says one thing and his actions say another
Cam: I'm not stupid, I just don't know what to believe
Warren: a warrior advice? Always trust the actions. Words are deceiving
Warren: you use words to deceive yourself but I'm sure you're actions say things clearer
Cam: yet Freddie demands I always use my words
Warren: and do you?
Cam: not always
Cam: it usually leads to us arguing when I don't
Warren: I reserve my arguments, your honor
Cam: ugh
Cam: I liked you more when you were giving me a shovel talk, can we go back to that?
Warren: nope
Warren: all I'm saying is that he already told you how things work with him. With words
Cam: hey so I have something to tell you that I've been kinda waiting for the subject to come up but it kinda didn't and it might be a bit awkward to just say it out of the blue but I figured you should know
Cam: and I just noticed it sounded like the beginning of a supernatural STD talk, BUT THAT'S NOT IT I'M CLEAN WE'RE FINE
Cam: so anyway, lemme know when you have a moment?
Freddie: lmao well good morning, Sparky
Freddie: ok no STD and obviously not pregnancies either. You sound so serious
Freddie: is everything ok?
Cam: yeah! everything is fine!
Cam: it's more like just an update on stuff
Cam: would you mind popping over here? I'm at the office
Cam: it feels weird talking about this through texts
Freddie: now I'm not sure I belive that
Freddie: is it a bad thing or why you sound so nervous?
Freddie: I'm kinda in the middle of something in a meeting right now
Freddie: wait! Is this you trying to call our deal off and that's why you don't wanna do it through texts?
Cam: I am nervous, but just bc I don't want you to misunderstand me, that's why I'd rather speak in person
Cam: oh sorry! It can wait, it's fine!
Cam: what NO WTF
Cam: IT'S THE OPPOSITE I SWEAR
Freddie: you're worrying me now.
Freddie: I'll be there in an hour
Freddie: are you proposing? 😝
Freddie: wait! You are proposing to Trevor?
Cam: there's really no need to worry, I promise
Cam: what
Cam: would you stop trying to guess it already!? I'm not telling you through text!
Warren: I'm pretty sure this isn't my business and maybe I was too quick to judge widow I warned you about my brother and his lack of feelings but, aren't you dating the nephilim?
Cam: oh hi warren!
Cam: I'm not sure I understand the question
Cam: but yes, I am dating Trevor
Cam: why do you ask?
Warren: cause I saw you earlier making out with my brother in an alley
Warren: I thought I should warn you about Freddie cause you might get hurt around him but now I'm thinking maybe more people might get hurt and it might not be because of him
Cam: what
Cam: I'm sorry, I'm not following
Cam: what do you mean by that?
Warren: Cameron, Freddie is dangerous. Very dangerous. More than me. Probably as dangerous as Gilmore
Warren: so maybe it is not such a great idea to keep doing whatever you're doing with him while you're dating someone else
Cam: but he knows about it
Cam: and it's not like he'd be jealous
Cam: since we have a no-feelings thing
Cam: so it's fine
Cam: you don't have to worry
Warren: Cameron, you're not dumb. I don't do business with dumb people and I'm pretty sure I'm doing business with you.
Warren: just because I said my brother couldn't feel things the same as you do, didn't mean he doesn't feel things at all
Warren: we tend to lean on the negative feelings so maybe he won't declare his love for you with roses and ask you to choose him, but it can definitely get ugly if he feels like he needs to compete for your attention
Cam: he told me himself I shouldn't expect love from him, Warren
Cam: I'm not stupid, Freddie just always says what he means
Cam: so he means it
Cam: and we have a good communication system
Cam: so if me dating Trevor bothered him, he'd tell me
Cam: besides, he knows he doesn't have to compete for my attention, they both do
Cam: thank you for caring but you really don't have to worry!
Warren: did you tell him that you're dating Trevor?
Cam: he knows we're going out for a while now
Warren: going out, fucking and dating are three different things
Cam: we have named it dating just a few days ago
Cam: the subject of the title change haven't come up
Warren: one thing about Freddie is that he loves rules. I'm sure you've noticed
Warren: he has very strong morals and I'm sure he's not gonna want to keep messing around with you if/when he finds out you're in a relationship
Cam: it's not a monogamous relationship
Warren: it's not me who you should be explaining it to
Cam: but he knows that!
Cam: you're the one questioning it
Warren: does he know things change with Trevor?
Warren: all in saying is that he's not gonna take good to find there are things you're not telling him
Warren: and trust me, no one, absolutely no one wants to have an upset Freddie around
