[venatoris]

I will.

[ He'll nibble on the dragonfruit once he figures it out.]

Wish we'd found some jerky.

[messenger]

So do I.

[ he likes red meat, he knows that much— the pepper is okay. it has a strong, pungent taste, and it's obvious that dean is right about it being better roasted. the flesh is stiff, and a bit hard to chew, and cooking it would break it down enough to be more palatable in that sense at the very least.

but he eats it all anyway, and then moves on to the avocado, which he peels with his fingers and eats the same way he ate the bell pepper, sucking green stains from his fingers when he's done. he wipes them clean on the grass before retrieving the honey from dean's coat pocket. ]

I found this, too.

[venatoris]

Oh, nice. I like honey.

[ Sweet and syrupy, what's not to like?

He just wishes he could get them some meat, but the jerky was all gross as hell. ]

Wonder if there's any deer nearby.

[ He's still got his gun, and it has a couple bullets left, but once he's out he's out, unless there's some magical way (a boon) he can get more. ]

[messenger]

I'm sure there are animals in the forest, but I think the majority have been transformed by the incense.

[ which means basically everything would put up a fight, and also not taste particularly good. normally, that wouldn't be a problem, but right now, he's a liability. he's not sure he can get back on his feet.

he eats another of the peppers, and then turns his attention toward the honey. after he's popped the cork from the little glass bottle, he slips a finger into the opening and then sucks the honey from his finger. he can't help but be a little captivated by the taste of something sweet. his body is starved for glucose, anyway. he licks his lips. ]

This is good.

[venatoris]

Yeah, true.

[ Wonderful. No real protein. They're just gonna friggin' starve to death on this cliff having a picnic. ]

It is, isn't it? It's good on pancakes and waffles. Syrup is good, but I like honey too.

[ And watching Cas lick it off his finger is sexy as hell so he has very few complaints. ]

[messenger]

[ he's going to finish half the container that way, dribbling honey into his mouth, giving his fingers enough attention to make dean blush. well. maybe not blush but— y'know. he doesn't like the feeling of stickiness on his fingers, so he's very deliberate about the entire process.

when he's done, he hands the rest to dean. then he kicks his wet boots off and shimmies out of dean's boxers to lay them out on the ground, where they'll hopefully dry; he begins unbuttoning dean's flannel next, but not to take it off. instead, he folds his legs up and pulls the sides of the shirt and coat around them. now that he's eaten, the chill is settling in again. ]

I'd like pancakes. And a cup of coffee.

[venatoris]

[ Dean is watching Cas very closely during all of this; he knows the angel isn't intentionally being erotic, but it's still sexy as hell to watch him lick his fingers clean.

Course, Dean's gonna have to do the same when the honey's handed to him, though he's less interested in filling his stomach than he is getting Cas warm. He scoots closer and drapes an arm around his shoulder, pressing in against his side. ]

Me too. I'd kill for a crappy cup of coffee right now. It doesn't even have to be good.

[messenger]

I'd kill for anything hot.

[ dean is warm pressed up against him, but the sensation of cold is terrible. his muscles are cramped from shivering, his skin itching where it's been most exposed to the elements— so basically everything below his waistline. he unwraps his arms from around his knees and twists, trying to press more of his body to dean's side without unfolding himself.

anything to get warmer than this. ]

This is— distracting.

[venatoris]

Yeah. I'd even drink tea right now.

[ The honey is capped and set aside, and he reaches for Cas, moving to pull him into his lap. ]

I know you're cold. I wish our crap wasn't wet.

[messenger]

[ that's better. dean's lap is warm. even if his pants are wet too, he'll happily perch there, legs folded up, toes curled against his thigh, leaned against his chest. he can also enjoy looking at his face from very close in this position, although dean probably won't enjoy the scrutiny. ]

We should probably lay your clothes out, so they dry faster.

[venatoris]

Yeah, probably.

[ Cas feels good, but his jeans and boxers are soaked and it is pretty uncomfortable. He shuffles Cas back off him for a moment while he shimmies out of them, spreading them out beside him, then finally giving in and just peeling his shirt off too, the hem is damp. Once he's done, he's dragging Cas back into his lap for a cuddle. Body heat = warmth, after all. He and Benny learned that before they found Cas. ]

[messenger]

[ he perches next to dean while he watches him undress. they aren't that far from the edge of the wall, or the group of people working the rope and pulley system, but they're far enough, he supposes, for dean to be comfortable stripping. he's more concerned with following each glimpse of skin with his eyes than worrying about who might see them, though.

it's all the better when dean pulls him back in. their skin is hot where it touches, and he sighs. soaks it in for a few more moments before twisting, placing his arms around dean's shoulders to maximize skin contact between them. their chests touch where his shirt is still hanging open, unbuttoned. ]

[ruinously]

Better?

[ It's definitely a lot warmer and he's not wild about how close they are, but Cas is exhausted and cold so they're just gonna have to make do. ]

You feel cold.

[messenger]

A bit.

[ he is. and he's not used to dealing with it.

which is why he turns to face dean, swinging a leg over to straddle his lap, squeezing his thighs around his hips. he's not sure what the warmest position is— it would probably be better if they laid down together and curled up; they used to do that in purgatory, too. but if he puts his head down, he has a feeling he's going to fall asleep immediately.

and they can't stay here for that long. ]

[venatoris]

[ ngh. It's taking all of Dean's willpower not to get hard; it's not the time and especially not the place, and he seriously doubts their oil made it. ]

Is that warmer?

[ It had sure better be, because Dean's restraint is questionable at best. ]

[messenger]

I dunno.

[ it's about equally warm, he'd say. is that quantifiable? there's a little color coming back to his cheeks now that they're out of the knee-high water, anyway; and to other parts of him, as dean's heat leeches into his clammy skin. he unwinds his arms around dean's shoulders a moment, takes his wrists, and places his hands on his bare thighs— his palms are very warm, and frankly he doesn't know why they're not taking advantage of that. ]

I think.

[venatoris]

...Are you trying to get me riled up on purpose?

[ Dean's palms are warm against Cas' skin and he licks his lips, eyes dropping down to Cas' legs, his belly and cock that's right there. ]

[messenger]

[ he pauses for a moment, blank look on his face. then he follows dean's eyes down and it clicks— he blinks. ]

No. But we could—

[ y'know. ]

[venatoris]

[ He snorts, though he is kinda eyeballing Cas' cock, head tipped, then flicks a look over his shoulder. ]

We don't have anything.

[ oil wise, he means. ]

But I have an idea. Slide off me, legs spread.

[messenger]

Are you sure? I put it in your bag.

[ it's where he kept all their things. it wasn't like they had a drawer. and the bottle was small and made of thick glass, like the bottle of honey— if it hadn't been sturdy enough to survive the calamity, he wouldn't have found it.

still, with a somewhat dubious expression, he complies. he's not entirely sure if he wants him on his back or on his knees, still? ]

We could always do what we did the first time.

[venatoris]

Just lay back.

[ and think of England. He winks at Cas, reaches to put his palm between pecs and gently ease him back before moving to settle between his thighs.

It does look for a moment he’s going to fuck him, but then he wriggles down, hands on Cas’ thighs to push them open, then dropping down to lick a stripe from balls to the tip of his cock. ]

[messenger]

Dean.

[ his eyes follow dean, a note of hope there— until he moves down, further away from him. where the hell are you going? still, his hips lift when he dips his head between his legs and puts his mouth to him, a sound gasping out of his throat before he reaches down and pulls on dean's hair. ]

Why couldn't you— pick a position with more skin contact?

[ it's cold, all laid out on the ground like this. ]

[venatoris]

[ ow ]

...Because I wanted to do this.

[ obviously, he's never done it before. but fine.

Cas tugs on his hair and Dean crawls back up, face flushed in embarrassment but Cas has a point. He drapes himself on top of Cas and gropes for the duffle, then pauses. ]

Maybe we should find somewhere with a little more privacy..?

[messenger]

[ he loosens his grip. he knows if he explained to dean that he struggles with things that he doesn't immediately derive pleasure from, he would just get upset at him again— he still doesn't really think dean understood what he meant when he offered this in the first place.

he glances over dean's shoulder (there are people not that far away, granted) and begins to sit upright, hand on his arm. ]

... Yeah.

[ he doesn't really wanna be gawked at. ]

[venatoris]

[ He's back on his heels and to his feet, offering Cas a hand; it's been a nice reprieve to sit and eat what little they've got, but he really would prefer something a little more private considering they're both naked and Dean really doesn't want to put wet denim back on. ]

Here, [ he says, hand out, fingers wiggling to help him up. ] C'mon. My nuts are cold.
