half of the pictures were garbage but there were still several really beautiful ones like felix rolling up his pantsleg looking like a nymph and one of a small frog swimming through clear rippling water. he took the bites gratefully as they decided which to send to friends and family

It was time he added his own pictures. The little point and shoot did not take as elegant of images as Zosas but they were still amusing. He picked one out of Zosa in the twilight and asked if that one should be sent to Aunt and uncle, the rest he decided he would just start a journal of his adventures on earth and put it in there.

he nodded. it seemed a little too intimate but the joyous look on felix's face made it impossible to suggest another and it was added to the collection of images to send over

He watched Zosa continue to study the screen and finished with his desert he slipped from the bed. Idly the professor wondered over to the unopened boxes and found the kit he had ordered. While the other was not paying attention, he mixed up the dark henna pasta before returning to the bed and sitting down in front of Zosa where he could not see. Delicately he started to paint a design on the dark feet.

at first he thought felix was teasing him by tickling his feet and lightly he pulled away though the look on felix's face and the bowl in his hand suggested otherwise. he stared in suspicion, "what are you doing felix?"

"Its a surprise." He answered only to get a hmm and a stare before the computer typing begin again. Each time he applied a new coat of design the boy sought to ruin it by squirming. In the end against the giggles he held the foot firm all the way until it reached Zosas upper calf. Then he wrapped the leg in a gauze so it could dry. He did the same with the other and told the man not to move for at least an hour.

it was difficult to manage but he did his best until the other stopped the tickling and started wrapping him up, once done he was allowed to look though there was little to see other than browntipped fingers on felix and gauze on his own feet though the look the other had made him close the laptop, it seemed however fexil was not done for as soon as he did he was told to close his eyes and lay back. doing so he felt the soft corner of the blanket cover the top part of his face and his shirt get tugged up, not understanding what felix intended but trusting the man completely he did not say anything even when he felt the tickling cold smooth a line over his belly


(by the time felix is done he will be giggly and at stance XD)

It was hard to finish the design on the mans belly with Zosa giggling like a child and wiggling, but once he was done and had wrapped the stomach in the same light gauze as the legs it was worth it. "You know, if earthlings celebrate all hallows eve, you would make a beautiful mummy." He smoothed his hand over the cloth. "Or we can play anthropologist and living dead." He grinned laying beside Zosa. His dark finger tips nearly matched Zosa's he realized as his fingers curled around Zosa's both their rings shinging under the false light.

"you are so strange sometimes felix, sometimes i think you'dve rather been an actor than a scientist." feeling the hand twine with his own he tightened the grip and pulled the hand to his lips for a kiss, "i love you so very much though, i don't know what i would have done if i had not met you...."

He took the hand and pulled it to his own lips. He started to hum softly and sing. "Earth below us... drifting calmly,... floating weightless... calling calling... Zosa." He tugged Zosa close careful not to squish him. "You will have to take many pictures since I am not sure this moment will happen again." He could not help the smile on his face.

he didn't quite understand but nodded all the same and careful not to muss up the bandages or crush his half-hardened member he rolled them so that he was half on top, "so many pictures that they cannot even all be contained"

"Then for an hour, I would like you to tell me a story, a wonderful story about either a nurse and his doctor or hmmm a myth." He said feeling strange that he was on the bottom of their pile.

softly he smiled and rested on top of the other, "oh? it has been a while since i told you a story about the nurse, i am not sure i remember anything about them, remind me?"

"I do not recall myself" He said letting one of his arms loosely hang off Zosa. "It was something about a cure."

the smile spread farther and rolling them both over so felix was mostly on top again he started, "yes, i remember that, the nurse was helping the professor find a cure for broken-heart and ended up contracting it himself, if i remember correctly it turned out they found the cure in each other but it was a flawed medicine for it only worked if it was continuously taken, this meant that any time the two were apart the symptoms returned two-fold and for each other. it was a malady of a most insidious nature so the nurse, being practical decided that the most reasonable thing for them to do is be together forever so they would not have to suffer. the professor however was not sure, he had tried this cure before and it was how he got sick to begin with, the nurse pushed though in his own way and eventually the professor agreed that they would try just that and so they did..... that is as much of the story as i have felix, we have to wait for the next installment though i have an idea of how it will turn out." sweetly he kissed the top of the copper head, "and it will be good"

He was not sure what to say though there was a smile deeply embeded on his lips. "Well a proper story ends with they lived happily ever after, and then there is a sequel about their adventures happily ever after. " Twisting he looked upwards and stroked the mans stomach, "Do your legs feel like they have dried mud on them?"
