I learned a long, long time ago that being ashamed of being myself wouldn't get me anywhere. ( long before teddy, actually. teddy was something absolutely amazing that came along--partially because billy wasn't ashamed of who he is. maybe he's not happy with himself, sometimes. maybe he wishes he could be better, be something else. but teddy's always loved him just as he is, and that's enough. ) Even just the nerdy parts.

( lips stop their trail down over a nipple, parting to let his tongue drag over the bit of sensitive skin, eyes still focused up on teddy's own as he lets himself go a bit--eyes glowing a soft blue as those magic-fizzed fingers turn a bit. staticy. )

We'll just have to experiment a bit, I guess.
