This is a generic Jakepost to reply to. Because the meme post was all Jake and has some inconceivable amount of comments now so it doesn't like to load. Have at, my lovelies.

Comments

A smile.

"I'm glad you like them," she said. Mental note for things to give Dirk in the future; a pair of Necomimi. It's so anime. "Was there anything else in particular you wanted me to show you, or should I leave you to go attend to my grandson?"

[papping]

Dirk you are not using Jade's headset for that you will have to wait until you gets you your own.

"There's an office, but it's full of things I'm not allowed to show, unfortunately," she offered, taking back the headset and pressing the button on the side so they shut down. She set them on a metal headform and gestured back toward the door. "Artificial intelligence, though... Not really my game, but I do dabble in a bit of neurology. Why do you ask?"

[papping]

"Hmm," Jake buzzed thoughtfully. "Hang on a second," she added, and pivoted to go back to a door in the left corner. She typed in another number code at the door and disappeared inside for a moment, returning with a thin sheaf of papers. "This is something I wrote up myself-- research on the sort of neurology we based the Necomimi around. I'm not sure how much good it'll do you, but... Since it's my own writing, I'm allowed to give it out for your perusal." She held it out for him.

[papping]

A light chuckle, and Jade waved a hand.

"Just be persistent. Neurology is difficult, but if you keep at it it'll start to make sense." She tapped her head lightly, headed for the stairs again. "Just remember that most of what you create personally will reflect your own neurological responses." She looked over her shoulder at him with a slight frown. "Artificial intelligence is hardly a field for the faint of heart."

[shitknickers]

Which was probably why neurology was such a challenging field. And possibly also why Necomimi looked a little like Bec's ears.

Jake was finished with the dishes and sitting in the theatre room on his laptop when they came back upstairs. He shut the computer, brisked down the hallway with Bec at his feet, and smiled as he rounded the corner.

"I trust you enjoyed yourself, from the amount of time you two were down there?" He wasted no time in slipping his arms around Dirk's waist and catching him by the lips. Jade chuckled and shot him a suggestive eyebrow before crouching down to greet Becquerel.

[shitknickers]

Jake spluttered a bit, feigning offense.

"Shock! I've been betrayed~" He wailed, throwing an arm dramatically over his forehead and swaying in the hallway. Jade quirked an eyebrow and looked up at Dirk.

"Sorry to break it to you, Dirk, but it would never work between us. You see..." She leaned forward and hugged onto Becquerel, who set his head against her shoulder to return the gesture. "I'm a furry."

[shitknickers]

Jade dissolved into giggles into her devilbeast and Jake continued to look dramatic.

"After you've broken my heart this way? I'm appalled that you would even ask," he whined. But then he took Dirk's hand and used it to sweep him into a comical dance dip. "But I wouldn't dare refuse."

[shitknickers]

Jake's nose crinkled in his laughter, and he used his grip on Dirk's hand to pull him upward again to kiss the daylights out of him.

"You sort of are," he corrected.

Jade crowed from the floor and stood up, putting her hands in the air and turning to go up the stairs.

"I'm leaving before this becomes X-rated," she explained, Bec trotting along behind her. "You boys have fun, but try to not keep anyone up!"

[shitknickers]

He nuzzled back, smiling and keeping his eyes closed for a while. He righted Dirk again, keeping his arms around his waist.

"I'm glad you get along," he said lightly, pecking the blonde's lips again.

[shitknickers]

"She's more to me than family," Jake explained quietly, walking Dirk back to the wall where he leaned on him gently. "And I figured you might enjoy her."

[shitknickers]

Jake chuckled.

"All right. Did you want me to show you my room?" He made an idle trail of kisses down to Dirk's throat, lingering there briefly.

[shitknickers]

There was a mischievous glint to Jake's smile, and he laced his fingers with Dirk's to tug him gently away from the wall and toward the stairs. They had to walk past Jade's room to get to his, in the back corner, but her door was closed over.

[shitknickers]

Except it was probably going to happen anyway, and be awkward and hilarious. Jake lingered by the stairs when Dirk went for his bag, stooping to kiss him lightly before they made their way up to the hallway. Once in his bedroom Jake slid his free hand along Dirk's neck, using that to bring him closer again to kiss him a bit deeper.
