[Trails his fingertips down Sam's chest, tracing the lines of his ribs and abs before following the dip of his hips]

Oh, it's that kind of technique?

[ a soft exhale escapes him, letting his breath tickle Jewel's ear as he nips playfully at the lobe, the pads of his fingers running over the tips of Jewel's nipples in a light caress. ]

Mm.

[Tilts his head to nose at Sam's jaw]

I like being able to play a bit rougher....but I don't want you slipping into 'work' mode with me.

[ brings a hand up to run through Jewel's hair. ]

Because you're afraid I'll hurt you or because you're afraid I'll dissociate on you?

The second one.

Should be fine, it's not sex.

It’s just about feeling good and having fun.

[Runs his hands through Sam’s hair]

That means you too. I’m already enjoying myself, so don’t worry about what you are or aren’t doing for me.

[Pushes a bit against Jewel's hand like a cat might at bring our. ]

Don't worry. I'm having fun, but I enjoy myself most through what I'm doing for you.

[Skritches at his scalp lightly]

If you're sure then.

I'm sure. You don't need me to have fun or feel good, there's no obligation on my part.

[Drops his hands from Sam's hair to tug on his cheeks]

Ow. Hey.

And I thought I was bad... Why would you even want to do something with someone if they don't care about you enough to want you to feel good or have fun too? Raise your standards.

...I don't need to raise my standards if I have you around, though? You caring is enough.

Be as cute as you want, birthday boy, but I'm on to you. You can bat those baby blues, but I stand by what I said.

[ laughs gently. ]

You don't have to worry. I don't fool around with anyone much. So there's no lack of standards.

Believe it or not, after joining HaZE I was only fooling around with one person until the boat happened.

That's about what I expected.

Haha, is it? I feel like it would be a little surprising.

... Why? You're flirty, but isn't that part of your brand? You also didn't have great experiences before that.

I don't care about sex like many other people on this boat so much because of having to use it as a weapon. I can count the number of times I've fooled around for fun with one hand even though I can almost guarantee I've been with more people than anyone else on this boat in a physical sense.

It's part of my brand, yeah. I feel like I'm a pretty believable actor though.

Haha. You are, but... sorry, you showed me your hand pretty early. You were comfortable and bold enough to initiate but easily spooked in follow through. Whether it was you just needed to get comfortable with yourself or something else doesn't matter, it was still telling that you weren't fooling around so much.

I'm trained pretty well in this kind of thing, too, since I have to be able to get close to targets no matter how open they are or aren't. So I mean... I'm not really the person you should be questioning your acting skills on.

Ugh, I chose my opponent poorly.

[ laughs, running his fingers playfully along Jewel's stomach. ]

You have plenty of others I'm sure you're winning against with flying colors, unless you spilled your guts to them, too. Then you got no one to blame but yourself.

Huh.........that probably means I'm outmatched, huh?
