\*\*\* Tristan, after a shudder watching Tequila feed strawberries to another lovely lady, dips his fingers into the chocolate, and begins to trace runes up Tequila’s leg, starting at the ankle and slowly tracing his way up… upon running out of chocolate, Tristan begins to dine… \*\*\*

Ender, honey, I’ll kiss you. Do you like soft, long passionate kisses that make your knees weak and butterflies flutter in your tummy? Do you want to hear the Angels sing…?

Mmmm… Chocolate covered Strawberries! **Tequila** , love, I think I have a little dripping from the corner of my mouth. Would you like to take care of that? 😉

Then be sure to take care of anything **Tristan** … needs. No need to stare longingly at him on my account. As much as I’m enjoying you, my dear, I’d hate to be the cause of anyone’s unhappiness. So have your fun where you will. 🙂

Who says it’s stopped? Just slowed down for a little. I, for one, intend to keep flirting until they MAKE me stop! 😃

Well, we ladies certainly ARE outnumbered here… But being the good host that I am, I’d be happy to make sure no one goes away unsatisfied.

So what’s **that** big shiny one there for? 😉

Servicing above and beyond the call of duty, huh? I’d like to see if you can get a third gold star… Depending on how quickly you **can** get out of that uniform. And should I keep my skirt on, or would you like to see how quickly I can get out of that? 😉

So, tell me a little more about these methods… Do I have to choose my favorite first, or can we just work through them all and I’ll choose later? 😛

How will you know what’s your favourite until we’ve tried 'em all? Let’s be methodical about this.

Let’s see…there’s alphabetically, numerical order, in order from horizontal to vertical and vice-versa, or we can ad-lib something. You choose.

With 1/2 page written review of each method, discussion and adaptation with a retry if necessary.

Damn, I should’ve been a research scientist! Maybe we can even get a grant!

Oh, hon, don’t leave yet! I’m sure it will pick back up sooner rather than later. It’s just that some of us are at work and not able to access as well at the moment (ok, ok, I **am** at work and I’m **not** supposed to be accessing it, but I’m on my lunch, damn it! 😃 ) So don’t be so hasty to walk out the door!

I usually prefer the horizontal to vertical… but I’d be willing to ad-lib a little… see what comes up. 😉

> [@](#):

Ooh. The first part of that sounds too much like work. But the discussion, adaptation and (especially) retry sounds like it would be more than worth it.

I wonder if there’s any way I can help persuade those fine men into giving us the money we need for this research. Maybe they’d like a graphic demonstration? 😃

I wander into the bar and glance idly at the crowd of boys gathered around TruePisces.

Struck by her beauty my eyes lock with hers. Walking toward her, her eyes never leave mine. I stand, looking down into her eyes.

Leaning over I kiss her deeply. Pulling back I say, “We water signs need to stick together. Why don’t you come back to my place and take a long, leisurely, sensual, soak in my hot tub?”.
