[Joshua tilts his head, barely realizing that they've been given more alcohol (more beer!!). He's much more invested in the bits that Cain tells him and watching how his face seems to light up at simple stories about his childhood heroes. It's ... cute. If he's allowed to think the word.]
A legend of sorts, then? Was it he that inspired you to join?
[Do tell more!
He does finally find the beer and takes another to start nursing it as well. Now that he's fairly flushed in the cheeks from the booze, he starts to drink it deeper. Hmmm. Maybe he can get through more?]
You do seem quite the heroic type, Cain. I can see you being a knight in shinning armour in a story. Am I correct?
I guess so, yeah. Storybook heroes drove me to pick up the sword, but it was having real life heroes that pushed me to do improve.
[ Cain starts at his new glass of beer, and he's pleased by how cold it is. This is gonna be a good night. He can feel it.
He pulls the glass away with a loud laugh on his lips, and he squeezes Joshua tighter. ]
Aww, you flatter me. [ It touches him in a different way, than hearing it coming from...a certain other person's mouth. ] I just do what I can to protect others where I can. But, thank you. Maybe I'll get to be your knight in shining armor in real life sometime!
[ He's definitely joking...!
He'll place his glass down and then tilt his head to peer at Joshua's face, a big grin on his lips. ]
[He is very red in the face... Joshua makes a small noise in protest, his hand coming up to his cheek to try and wipe the redness away with the back of his hand as if it would be that simple.]
Forgive me, it's ... It's only the alcohol.
[...!! It's more than that. Joshua is enjoying this chance encounter with Cain. It has been pleasant. And while Joshua knows it's entirely childish to think such thoughts after only meeting this man just hours before... He finds him very interesting. Attractive. A heroic knight-]
Did I mention it before? I am ... I am not a practiced drinker.
[ Joshua claims it's only the alcohol, and Cain will buy it. For now!
The flush really makes him seem so cute, though. With a little laugh, he takes his now-free hand to gently pinch his bright red cheeks. Guess lightweights ("lightweights") are like that, huh? ]
Yeah. I think you did.
[ He laughs, fingers still firmly around the round of his cheeks. ]
You're so cute. Did you want to slow down? I don't mind.
[... !!! He should be totally outraged that his cheek is being pinched like a child !! ... !!!]
Cute... So you say- Perhaps you're also only drunk.
[His hand comes to push gently at Cain's chest. But he's not pushing...that hard. What is this, Joshua liking the attention like some touch-starved MAIDEN.]
[ Barely drunk! The beginnings of a buzz, if anything. Slowing down would be nothing to Cain. But everything to Joshua, it seems.
He laughs again, especially as Joshua's hand connects with his chest. Did he notice how muscly he was before that? Now he'll get to feel it! Enjoy those tits. ]
Are you sure? [ Cain teases. ] You're gonna have a nasty hangover tomorrow at this rate.
[Oh. That's a very muscly chest. Joshua will have to resist the very deep urge to run his hand over Cain's chest just to see how firm and nice those tits are- No, he won't do it! ... He's a gentleman!!
...] If I do, then I'll leave it to you to take care of me. We'll be sharing a room tonight, after all?
[The drinking is already making his head a little fuzzy. But he takes his drink and drinks more.]
That is what a knight is supposed to do, is it not? Take care of those weaker than them?
