Ah, yes... The Bondage Episode.
(No, I don't watch a lot of television, why do you ask?)

This was -written- ten real-time days after Neets' birthday... Previously (either SL46 or SL47), Beej mentions that there's nine more days 'til the day. That particular SL was finished on the 20th of November.

*Home again, home again... Beej was home again from one of his recently-begun, mysterious errands. They'd never lasted long, these trips, and usually involved a phonecall to prove that everything was going as it should. This trip had merely been a package pickup, as shown by the parcel the trader held. He also carried the scent of chill morning air, having braved it in a short walk to the post office. He shuts the door quietly, wondering if Neets was up yet...*

~~Which of course, he isn't really. Having spread himself across the entire bed, and with only the sheet tangled somewhere around his waist, he looks rather comfy. Yellow eyes open briefly, then sink back to their half-closed position, staring at the tv with something like interest.~~ 'Eya...yer'up e'rly...

Blackwater Jones : . . . . msg#12 Fri, Nov 28, 12:57PM PST
*He hadn't expected his love to be asleep- After all, he'd chosen the phone in the bedroom because no one could sleep through those brass bells... It scared him awake every time it rang. Lounging in the doorway for a bit, he takes in the sight before him... And a yawn escapes. Grinning, he takes the last few steps and hovers at the side of the bed.* And good morning, sunshine, to you, too... *The mild words are followed with a kiss planted on Neets' forehead.* I had to get something. *Straightening, he holds up the package, then moves to the closet...* Feel any different?


((Transcriptionist's Notes: I mentioned the phone because I wanted to imply that it had awakened Beej that morning... I have no idea if that came through in the post.))

Neetlemyre Knickerbocker : . . . . msg#14 Fri, Nov 28, 1:08PM PST
~~He looks up, smiling ever so slightly, and watching where the package goes.~~ W'adda'ya me'n? Old'r r'summat? Nah...lon'ly mebbe....kin'a cold... ~~His words mild, he untangles himself from a greater portion of the bed, slinking all of his limbs back to his half and turning on his side, lazing in the sunshine as well as any cat.~~

Blackwater Jones : . . . . msg#15 Fri, Nov 28, 1:19PM PST
*Fighting a losing battle against a cascade of papers, he sighs. Mumbling a little, he finds whatever he was looking for and scoops the rest of the detritus from the floor and shoves the paper back onto the shelf.* I don't know... 'Feel any different' is just a traditional question, I guess. *Two legal-sized, manilla envelopes have joined the package on the foot of the bed, Beej himself kicking off his boots and hanging his coat over a bedpost.* Lonely? I think I can fix that... And this, *Holding the carton up as he slides into his side of the bed.* Should help with being cold. *Giving a soft, happy sigh, he hands the box over.*

Blackwater Jones : . . . . msg#18 Fri, Nov 28, 1:31PM PST
((*Grin* No... There's something not-quite-right about them having any sort of relationship beyond Boss/Agent and/or friends. That bugged the heck out of me in the pilot! All those people telling Mulder they were his friends.... *Snort* I _also_ wanna know what the deal is between CSM and Skinner. IS Skinner on the take? I don't think so... If he isn't, why the heck doesn't he arrest CSM? Is it because Skinner wants to know The Truth, too? Did he, or someone he cherished, get abducted? Is it all a hoax? Will we be told the answers in the movie? Will I ever quit wondering who the mustachioed man in the Energizer commercials is working for...?))

~~He blinks at the trader oddly, hesitantly reaching for the envelopes and the package.~~ Wassat? Y'din git'me summat, didja? ~~He moves over, snugging his own slight form up to his lover's side before working at the edge of one of the envelopes.~~ ((Um...I'm not reading the post wrong am I? *Is slow all of a sudden.*))

Blackwater Jones : . . . . msg#21 Fri, Nov 28, 1:39PM PST
((He only handed over the box... No worries, I'll fix it!)) *Distracted by the spill of green hair over pale shoulder, he doesn't notice the fingers working on the envelope... Yet.* I did... *He grins, loopy, insouciant, pleased beyond reason. The expression fades when he feels a tugging on the other packets.* Oh, wait, not yet! *He gently pulls them away from the younger man, nodding at the parcel.* Open that one first. ((Fixed! *Grin*))

Neetlemyre Knickerbocker : . . . . msg#23 Fri, Nov 28, 1:45PM PST
((*grin* I think so too... *laugh* Mulder isn't supposed to HAVE any friends, besides Scully and the Lone Gunmen! *gigglegrin* *makes face* I think Skinner doesn't arrest CSM because it wouldn't do any GOOD. Think about it...so he's in jail, so what. Since he can get anyone to do anything, except Mulder, Scully and Skinner, what would be the point? he'd be out and there'd be no record of his ever having been there before anything could happen.))

Neetlemyre Knickerbocker : . . . . msg#24 Fri, Nov 28, 1:47PM PST
((Whoops! Thanks...)) ~~He blinks wolfen eyes, nodding as he gives over the envelope in favor of the package. Nimble fingers pluck at the tape and brown paper, pulling it off slowly.~~ W'at s'it?

Blackwater Jones : . . . . msg#26 Fri, Nov 28, 1:49PM PST
((*Nodnod* Exactly! And I think that, for all the smooching going on, they're just friends, and they're gonna stay that way. Even if Mama Scully thinks Fox would make a good son-in-law. *Laugh* *Still cant get over the memory of The Lone Gunmen on ice* *Think* Good point. Besides, there's the rest of The Consortium- They'd go on about their business, without him. Heck, they've (supposedly) killed him...))

Blackwater Jones : . . . . msg#27 Fri, Nov 28, 1:53PM PST
It's something we were thinking about a few days ago... *And once he gets the box open, he'll find a lovely, navy blue coat... The fruit of his first mysterious jaunt.* It should fit... ((No problem... *Grin*))

Neetlemyre Knickerbocker : . . . . msg#28 Fri, Nov 28, 1:54PM PST
((*nodnod* I think so too, oddly enough. They've got great chemistry...but I think that in a romantic situation, they'd fail utterly...what you can accept in a working relationship or a friendship becomes hurtful in a love relationship, or at least, that's my theory. Mulder is too quick to ridicule Scully's beliefs, and Scully is still too analytical for him... I will always hold dear the memory of the Lone Gunmen on ice... *nodnodNOD* I do NOT think he's really dead!))

Blackwater Jones : . . . . msg#30 Fri, Nov 28, 1:58PM PST
((*Nod* And then you come back to the fact that, if They can hurt Mulder by doing things to Scully when they're just friends and partners, They'll _really_ screw him up if they're lovers/engaged/married/whatever... And he'd _never_ want that to happen to her. *Giggle* Yer a nut! *Shakes head* No _WAY_ is he dead! He _can't_ be. CSM was one of the driving plot-twists! ))

~~He opens the box, running his fingers over the coat with a surprised, very pleased grin.~~ Y'din' 'afta git'me noth'n... ~~His childish delight befits a 4 year old receiving a toy, and he lifts the coat out of the box with a care it probably doesn't need.~~ T'anks...

*Shrugging and looking down, a little shyly, before grinning back.* I wanted to... *The delight of his lover is infectious, handing over the first of the two envelopes with a laugh and a slightly wicked tinge to his features...* What can I say? You gave me all these ideas... 'Welcome.

((*Laugh* Odd title, but the ending is niftily interesting... *Grin* Mulder might not seem like the world's nicest guy, and at times, he isn't, but I think he's got marshmallowy spots... Scully's one of 'em. *NodnodnodNOD* I think the ties make it clear that CSM _is_ Mulder's pop. Even in Duane Barry/Ascencion/One Breath... I understand One Breath much better, now that I've seen the other two. ))

((*Think* New point for consideration. CSM Tells Krycek he's going to tell the Consortium that Krycek is blackmailing, or attempting to blackmail, the group. INSTEAD, he tells the consortium that Krycek is dead. Sooooo... Krycek is just a little higher on the ladder than hired muscle. Why did CSM lie to both Krycek and The Consortium? Was he planning to make a deal for himself and/or the Consortium using Krycek and the Tape as bargining chips? What's _on_ that danged tape, anyhow?

'Yeah but' yourself. *He continues to grin, nodding.* Yep, but the smaller sizes aren't as popular as larger ones. It's still on order.... One of the pitfalls of this business. *Watching Neets fumble with the yellow paper and the ensuing tumble of photos to bed cause a slight blush to heat his face.* 'Bout the coat, and those... *He nods again, this time a dip to indicate the eight-by-ten glossy of himself, lounging the wrong way on a chaise. He appears to be wearing nothing but his hat and a very silly smile, lying on his stomach with his feet kicked up, ankles crossed... His chin rests on his wrists, which in turn are crossed over a bolster of some sort. It's not the only pose- There's a normal, formal portrait complete with suitcoat and a tie to match his hat, one that makes Beej look vaugely Roman and shows off his legs, and one, inexplicably, dressed as Dracula. He's a bit nervous as he awaits the reaction....*

Neetlemyre Knickerbocker : . . . . msg#46 Fri, Nov 28, 5:53PM PST
~~His sharp intake of breath could mean anything, but the almost serious look on his face couldn't. Pure wonder, he spreads each of the pictures out on the mattress, studying each of them with delight. His smile is one of purest happiness, and he sidles closer, one hand seeking his love's.~~ S'a bes'th'ng a'ev'r seen...'cept you...

Blackwater Jones : . . . . msg#47 Fri, Nov 28, 6:02PM PST
*The gasp makes him look up from his slightly silly task of straightening the small stack of wallet-sized versions he'd had made up as well- something to carry around... The apprehension flees in the face of that rapturous joy and he blushes a little more.* Well... *He shrugs, words lost, so he just laces his fingers through Neets' and gives a gentle squeeze. His eyes dart to the last envelope, and he says the only thing that comes to mind, not quite ready to give it to the younger man, yet.* Love you.

Neetlemyre Knickerbocker : . . . . msg#54 Fri, Nov 28, 7:20PM PST
~~He turns his head towards the trader, emerald locks falling into his eyes and in disarray behind him.~~ Can't b'le've y'got these fer'me... Spec'ally th't'un...~~He points to the nearly-nude, grinning like a fool.~~ Love ya' too Beej...

Blackwater Jones : . . . . msg#55 Fri, Nov 28, 7:29PM PST
*Letting go of the last envelope for a moment, he reaches up to brush malachite tresses from amber eyes.* Well... It seemed like something you'd appreciate... And that one... *He colors up again, laughing softly.* I know... *He grows a bit more serious, picking up the penultimate gift. This envelope isn't glued shut, the brass-colored brad in the center of the flap holding it closed. It has an official-looking address in one corner, and 'Jones, Blackwater P.' neatly lettered on another... He gives the captive hand another squeeze before he hands the slim packet over.*

Neetlemyre Knickerbocker : . . . . msg#56 Fri, Nov 28, 7:38PM PST
-More- fer'me? ~~He shakes his head, stacking the photos neatly and taking a care to leave That One on top. He quirks his eyebrow up at the plain envelope, looking over at the trader before opening it and sliding out the contents.~~

Blackwater Jones : . . . . msg#57 Fri, Nov 28, 7:47PM PST
*He keeps his smile, though a bit of uncertainty is in evidence as Neets looks at him.* Yeah... Sorta. I was going to give you that- those, anyways, but I thought it.... It made sense to me to... Well, today just sort of fit. *His words trail off as he gathers his wits, organizing his thoughts before speaking again.* If... If you wanted to make any of it...this... official... There you are. *He taps the forms that were in the envelope, the ones on top related to changing one's name. Further down was an application for a marriage certificate...* You'd mentioned it in the past, so... *Another shrug, not indifferent, merely speechless for the moment. Again.*

Neetlemyre Knickerbocker : . . . . msg#60 Fri, Nov 28, 7:55PM PST
~~He's speechless himself, reading over the forms with the care one would give the classics of literature, fingers trailing just below each word as he fits them into his mind. of all the things he'd thought might show up today, these are by far the most pleasant, and the one's he never would have thought to ask for. He blinks, moving the papers up to sit next to the pictures, before the stray tears can smudge the official-looking ink. Wiping at the few drops of saline on the tip of his nose, he turns a bit on his side and slides an arm around his lover.~~ S'a'best th'ng y'cou'da ev'r giv'n me.

Blackwater Jones : . . . . msg#62 Fri, Nov 28, 8:06PM PST
Oh... Don't... *Having watched the younger man read the documents over, he can't help but see the tears... He knows, somewhere, that they're happy ones, but still... He moves to help dry the tracks, but turns the movement into cradling Neets closer.* Glad you like 'em... Worth standin' in line for. *His voice is kind, remebering briefly a trip they'd taken for some permit-or-other, and the line they'd had to stand in then. Brushing the thoughts aside, he leans over and puts another kiss on that alabaster brow* Happy birthday.

Neetlemyre Knickerbocker : . . . . msg#64 Fri, Nov 28, 8:17PM PST
M'not...prom'se... ~~He grins, teeth flashing in the light, and moves quickly. Before the trader can get -too- far away, he plants a kiss on his cheek, rolling towards the side of the bed again. Sheet and any semblance of modesty lost, he reaches for the coat, pulling it on and turning back and forth.~~ W'at'r ya' s'pos'd t'say t' 'appy b'rthday?

Blackwater Jones : . . . . msg#66 Fri, Nov 28, 8:24PM PST
I know... *He blinks at the sudden movements following the smooch, eyeing his love critically. That is, until he bursts out laughing at the sight of Neets in nothing but the coat...* I honestly don't know... Thank you, perhaps? *He chuckles again, running a hand along one of the lapels...*

I never said I wouldn't come and get you, just that I wouldn't bail you out. *He nods at this, striving for a seriousness that melts instantly at the young man's feigned distress and primping.* A little dog and red hair... Oh! *And now he's laughing again, harder than before as the connection is made.* And I s'pose.... You'd want me... to get... a tie with a... strange.... design... on it? *His words are gasped out between chortles.*

((*Giggles madly at Neets' 'wishing' to be Scully* *Wonders if red dye would actually turn Neets' hair brown, if it wasn't bleached first- which brings her mind around to, "Would his hair be a paler shade of green, if bleached, or a goldeny-blond?"*))

And I don't think I could get my hair to stand up like that... *He creeps closer, settling into a slightly tense, ready-to-pounce posture...

Well, maybe with enough gel... but then you'd pull my hair when you tried to run your fingers through it! *He reaches out and narrowly misses snagging his lover as he slips by, snapping.* Darn... Almost- Aigh! Not _those_! I'd forgotten... *He's laughing _again_, shaking his head, then sobers, holding his hands up to frame the young man and the ties* I think... I think the spotted one goes with your hair better. *A decisive nod for that, sidiling closer again...*
