Also: I am a nerd, too. So we're set!

You know one of the instructors at work asked me what you do for a living. I said you were a special detective and she didn't believe me.

[helpdesk_hero]

Nerds work well with other nerds.

[Oh god he has to laugh when Kyle says that.]

Sorry no one believes you on that, babe.

[kyley_b]

Yup.

It's okay. She thinks you're too young, which I guess is fair for normal people.

[helpdesk_hero]

[He laughs and shakes his head.]

Dude plenty of people go into PI work in their mid twenties!

[kyley_b]

I think she thinks I meant you're with the FBI or something.

I don't tell people you're a superhero since I figure that tends to put me in danger, heh.

[helpdesk_hero]

The feds could NEVER pay me enough to work with them.

[Feds weren't often big on mutants, so hard pass.]

You might not be wrong. But pointing out I'm a mutant, at least out here, may not go bad.

[kyley_b]

Good. I fucking hate those guys.

Dude, I never hide that. That'd be like... denying that you're black or something.

[helpdesk_hero]

If you weren't driving right now I'd so make out with your face for that.

[kyley_b]

[Kyle laughs.]

Wow, not being an asshole gets me kisses?! Awesome.

Does anybody give you shit for dating a white guy?

[helpdesk_hero]

No, being supportive of me for all that I am gets you kisses.

[Shit for dating a white guy? David shakes his head.]

no, but I get some for dating a human. I have to point out that's fucking racist.

[kyley_b]

I love you, dude.

That's more understandable, though. Humans have treated you guys pretty shitty in recent memory.

[helpdesk_hero]

Yeah, but it's still racism. The idea is to NOT be racist.

And I love and adore you, Kyle.

[kyley_b]

Well, yeah. Ideally.

[He glances over and beams.

Finding parking at Baker Beach isn't as bad as it would be in the summer. Kyle marvels that from the beach itself you can see the Golden Gate bridge, and he suggests that they head toward the north end for a better look.

Kyle did not do deep research before they'd headed out. This means Kyle has no idea that the northern end of the beach is clothing optional.]

[helpdesk_hero]

[Well once they're out of the car David wraps an arm around Kyle and is happy to walk along with him, bag over his shoulder. He is a bit shocked when they get down to the beach though.]

WAs... this intentional?

[kyley_b]

[The answer is obvious: no. Kyle's eyes are huge and his face beet red.]

[helpdesk_hero]

[Well, he supposed that, while in metaphorical Rome...

And he's immediately stripping his shirt off.]

You don't have to.

[kyley_b]

I didn't know! [Hissed, because he doesn't want to draw attention to himself.]

But it's fine. It's cool. I'm cool.

[Kyle keeps every stitch of clothes on as they look for a nice spot to put their things down. Once they do he peels his shirt off, telling himself to grow up. So people are nude. So what? It's not like it has to be sexy.

Kyle has forgotten that his boyfriend is, in fact, very very sexy.]

[helpdesk_hero]

[David takes some time setting up. Towels out to lay on, an umbrella up for Kyle to sit under, and of course he took out the pot of Krakoan sun screen. Only then did he strip down.]

Want help getting this sunscreen on you?

[Something he asked because David was trying not to think about some of the scars that should be on his body and weren't. he was more aware of that in public]

[kyley_b]

Yeah, please.

[Kyle moves so David can get his back. He can't help but be a little tense, because there's naked people. And most of them are men.]

...I think this might be a gay area.

[helpdesk_hero]

Or it's not a gay area and they all came here in hopes of naked women.

[David takes it all in stride, but only because he knows being calm will help Kyle be calmer. He scoops some cream onto his hands and then moves to massage it into Kyle's skin.]

If it helps, imagine them all in pantallons.

[kyley_b]

David. Don't be naïve.

[He relaxes a little under David's hands.]

That doe snot help, no. But it's okay, I'll adjust, it's just dicks. I'm mostly just like... leave it to me, huh? Pick the ONE part of the beach...

[helpdesk_hero]

Are you sure you don't want to move?

[David will do that for him. Gladly.]

[kyley_b]

Nah, it's fine.

[He shifts so he can give David a hug.]

God, I'm such a prude.

[helpdesk_hero]

You're not. You just have a different interaction with the world than some other people have.

[he absolutely accepts the hug.]

I gotta get all this cream on you. YOu're so pale.

[kyley_b]

No, no. Pretty sure I'm a prude.

[He cackles.] I'm Polish, what did you expect?
