Meme: Future.
Martin sure was all grown up. 19, looked about 21. And Beatrice admitted. She had looked.

And she'd seen plenty without looking.

...And it was about time, she thought, that they finally addressed the subject.

She cornered him one evening during R and R time. "Martin?"

Martin glances up from reading his favourite spellbook in an armchair he's found in a private corner of the HQ. "Hi Bea. Something up?"

Spending his teenage years on a team of beautiful (and very fit he's noticed) women, there's been a few awkward moments but he's made it a point to stay proffesional. It didn't mean he hadn't noticed them, especially one of his saner teammates, but he'd assumed they all viewed him as a little brother so he'd kept any attraction he held quiet. Although he never seemed to be able to keep secrets from Bea, she probably knew.

	"Yeah sure, did you want to sit?" He gets out of the armchair and offers it to her with a smile. "Thanks." He makes the glass of water faintly glow blue and waits for her to let it go so he can levitate it towards himself. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Bea lets go when the timing is right, but smiles a little wryly at him. "I don't feel an accident coming on, Martin. You don't have to be too careful." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Sorry, force of habit. I try to be careful," he admits a tad sheepishly. He indicates the armchair again and sits on one of the arms while sipping the water while he waits for her to sit down. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Safety is good. Nothing to be ashamed of. But... you know you're 19 now. You're a grown-up. You've got a lot of options to take under consideration, and that's what I wanted to talk about." She sits beside him. "Martin, I know it's hard to understand how my powers work, and I don't know if you've ever understood just how aware I am." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He looks at her curiously not sure exactly what she means but waits for her to finish. If there's anything magic had taught him it was patience. "Right. Well I know it's near impossible to surprise you or keep secrets from you," he smiles. "What options were you thinking of?" He wracks his brains trying to think of anything he might have kept from her that she might be refering to, but he's coming up with nothing so he waits for her to fill in the blanks.

"Smart guy," Bea said, smiling. "Well, first let me explain. As you're surmising, the Realizations'll hit just about everything. Including everyone's body's. That's why I can generally tell when you're going to have an accident. The slight subconscious twitches, the change in breathing, the slight rise in temperature." A pause. "The thing is, Martin, accidents aren't the only things that change your temperature, or hitch your breath, or the way you swallow... or the parts of your body the blood flows to." She starts looking at him more and more intently as she speaks. "And when you were a just kid, that was easy to ignore. But you're not a kid anymore, Martin. So, option number one.... what are we going to do about that?"

"Ah I see," he responds a tad embarassed. He hadn't expected her to pay any attention to it, even now, if was being honest with himself. And the fact that she had threw him off a little. Martin directs his spellbook to jump back into his lucky hat in order to give himself something to do and concentrate on while he answered, "I suppose...that's up to you then." If she could tell that much from her realizations he figures she can tell that he'll have no objections either way she chooses.

	He blinks at her for a moment, not quite believing this, but soon recovers. Putting on his hat and standing up he just gives her a smile back in response. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Normally aprehensive about any physical contact, even if it's less dangerous now, he makes it a point to stay still and not reflexively move away when she puts her hand on his arm. The armchair's cushion gently nudges her to help her up while Martin takes note of where the others are around the HQ, the magical protection on the place being his work certainly helps with it.

	She smiles when he doesn't flinch, and off they go to her room. She sets her hand behind his head and leans to kiss him, first gently, then a bit more hungrily. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	magic_hands 2012-01-22 08:31 am UTC (link)
	He kisses her back, cautiously just to test the waters, and places one of his hands firmly against her door. Thankful this is a basic barrier spell he can do with little concentration, Martin wraps his other arm around her waist, although his fingers aren't touching her, to pull her closer as the kissing becomes more intense.

	And she continues, already starting to gauge his body's reactions to her. Hers is reacting just fine, certainly. "Good trick. But I don't want you worrying too much, MArtin. Relax." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

His body is reacting very well to this and so far there's been no unexpected sparks of magic so he decides to take a chance and wrap both his arms around her, hands actually making contact this time. "Not worrying," he manages to get out between kisses, "Precautions." Privacy ones in this case, he didn't think a lock was going to stop certain teammates from barging in.

	magic_hands 2012-01-23 05:05 am UTC (link)
	"I..." He pauses, knowing that from anyone else this would be a rather mundane request but coming from him it was probably one of the more dangerous ones. "Could I...touch you? Tell me if...you know." One of his gloved hands hovers just above the hem of her shirt while he puts his weight on the other hand and waits for permission. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

A look of intense concentration crosses his face, he's being extra careful, and gloved fingers ever so lightly press against her and sneak under the hem of her shirt to gently push it up. There's not enough magic coming from his hands right now to do any harm, but his touch leaves a tingling sensation in its wake as he pushes her shirt up higher. Martin glances up at her quickly just to check.
