[That same sort of definition..! He'd love to have muscle like that. Sigh.
That sounds horrible though. Terrible. Really, what are they to do. Goro's got shelter at the very least, the locals seem willing to give them space as long as they help out (which they plan to do anyway), so he doesn't mind taking up a room to dress down a bit. The fire-resistant coveralls aren't attractive at all, but Liz did say he could work anything he wanted..?]
Let this warm you up then, Akira Kurusu.
[Along with a pretty coy, risque photoshoot of him stripping down. His hair's up and there's sweat on him 'cause of the heat of the area, but he's definitely showing off his tone. Akira seemed to like it in that embarrassing dream after all.]
[ He was not at all expecting this........ If anything, he thought Goro was going to give him a video with a cute, encouraging message. First, he instantly locks his phone in fear that anyone could see. People are wandering about, fixing up the campsite or passing time as they wait for the rest of the team, and he would die if anyone stole a glance.
When he relocates to the secluded side, he scrolls through the photos and scans every detail. It’s awfully tantalizing and almost delectable—the way Goro’s muscles dip and beads of sweat roll down put him under a spell. They’re merely pictures, pixels strung together on a display, yet he can feel his heartbeat race and body temperature pick up with every passing second. There’s a frustrated and slightly annoyed smile on his lips as he drags a hand down his face. ]
[Goro bites back a grin, feeling the room rise a few degrees at the reply. Ooooh. That's nice. Hot and bothered, huh..?]
It's the same result in the end, isn't it? Your mind's off the cold. I just wish I could be there with you... and not just because I'm far too hot at the moment. Really, even taking off this much doesn't help.
[ He can’t just relieve himself in the wilderness with a group of people around, either, so he’s stuck here. Livid. Knowing full well Goro is enjoying this. All he can do is shift in place awkwardly with his knees close to him, thighs tightly squeezed. He hates this. ]
this is worse than feeling cold, Goro.
[ He has to calm down. Breathe in, breathe out. ]
i wish you were here, too. it’d be nice to watch the stars in the sky together.
I can do without the snow, but the stars were my thoughts exactly. The planetarium just can't compare... And I don't even have that luxury here. To be honest, I'm jealous. Enjoy it for me, okay? I just hope this isn't like August all over again.
[his valentine's day plans..! he's gonna fucking use a flare to see his boy.]
Haha, I was thinking just the same thing. Even if we don't see each other every day in the first place.
[...]
Maybe it's because the option was always open. Even if we didn't take it up, if we wanted to see each other it was as easy as popping in. But we can't exactly do that right now. Honestly, we probably couldn't be farther apart... Snow and fire. Mountains and subterranean caverns. It makes me miss you terribly.
you’re right. simply having the opportunity available made it comfortable. i guess moments like these aren’t too bad, even though i’m freezing and riled up because of a devious someone. it reminds us to not take the small things for granted.
from the peaks of the mountains to the depths of the underground caverns, even against the test of time, my love for you will never waver.
p.s. when this is over, i want to talk to you about stuff.
[... Those sort of words, even following such sweet ones that make his heart soar and clench painfully, would usually worry him, leave him anxious and restless about what could be wrong, but he's putting his foot down on that thinking. Just because he wants to talk doesn't mean it's terrible. They talk all the time. This just means he'd prefer it face to face, which is a big ass mood.]
My feelings mirror yours, Akira. No amount of distance from one another could diminish the way I feel about you or your unfortunate state of being.
And... Noted. I'll wait wistfully to hold you in my arms again, chouchou.
[ What an ass...... But he likes that about Goro, anyway. ]
i’m happy to hear that, but don’t worry about what i said. i want to talk about my memories, some things about myself, and my feelings. sharing, basically. nothing big or important.
[ He doesn’t know why it’s so hard to type that or why it never sounds right no matter how many times he edits or rereads it. In the end, he omits it... He’s sure Goro understands it isn’t a negative talk. ]
i have to go cook some mutant fish stew now. expect updates from me soon, honey.

STILL? He’s just used to Goro being similar to his size, so this is disorienting to think about. ]
it’s freezing cold and shelter isn’t provided.

you’re not on a boat this time and i can contact you, so it’s already far from August, but seeing you would be better.

it hasn’t been a day yet i miss you already. it’s funny, right?
