Zane was feeling much more comfortable, his thoughts bubble-wrapped, like nothing could hurt him.

He squinted, looking for the next question.

MulvaneyTruthNetwork: Why does Asa call you Lois?

Zane blew out a breath through his closed lips, sounding like he was blowing a raspberry. “Is that not self-explanatory?”

“Behave, Lois,” Asa murmured, then looked at the camera. “Because he’s a crime reporter,” Asa said. “Like Lois Lane.”

Zane giggled. “And also ‘cause the night we met, I ‘cused him of bein’ a supervillain.” Zane sighed dreamily. “Then he took me home and proved it.”

“All night long,” Asa confirmed. “And then I never let him go.”

GaggedByThePoly: Freaks.

WestAndOscarAreInChargeNow: It’s amazing.

TwinksAgainstTime: For your next million subscribers please do a whole episode drunk. You’re so cute like this.

Like what? Drunk? Was he drunk? Yeah, he was drunk. That was okay. Asa was there. He wouldn’t let anything bad happen.

GaggedByThePoly: You make it sound like you chained him up in your basement.

Zane read it out loud, another giggle falling from his lips. “Actually, it was a radiator in his bathroom.”

Felix gave a knowing smile. “Kinky.”

GaggedByThePoly: How do you keep the bruises consensual?

“That’s a crazy fucking question, but whatever,” Zane said. “Oops, I said fuck. Guess this video’s getting demonetized. Oh, well. What was the question? Oh, bruises. Short answer: I ask for them.”

“And he color-codes them,” Felix added cheerily, his words just the slightest bit fuzzy around the edges. “Purple means he cried. Gold means he begged.”

Zane laughed a little too hard at that. “They’re gonna believe we have some kind of chart on the bedroom wall.”

ArchiTechLover: I wanna hear what Asa and Avi have to say.

“About what? My bruises? I bet you do, Archi.” He turned glassy eyes to his husband, giving him a loopy smile. “How do we keep them consensual, baby?”

“He signed a waiver,” Asa deadpanned.

“It’s true. I notarized it,” Avi added.

Zane snorted. “People are gonna think you’re serious.”

Asa shrugged. “That’s on them.”

Zane’s hands slid under Felix’s sleeveless sweater, petting the silky skin beneath, pulling a little gasp from him.

BarbequeButMakeItBondage: They’re literally all over each other right in front of us.

Zane’sBruisesDotCom: They don’t even care who knows.

PolyHo4Life: What I wouldn’t give to be the meat in that sandwich.

IShipTwincestButImSorry: You can have the twinks, I’ll take the twins.

TwinsWithBenefits: How do you divide bedtime between four people?
