It was so much better when his human reciprocated! It seemed that he always had to take the first step, but gradually his human's periods of resistance were becoming shorter and shorter. A success by any measure! Coming to accept what, ZEX was sure, were deep and abiding feelings towards him. Whether or not they were both mad and pretending at being other people suddenly didn't seem to matter as much, although he remembered, in a distant sort of way, that it had been very important not too long ago.

But that was then. Right now he had much more urgent matters to attend to, such as stroking his human's smooth, warm skin, and kissing him more fervently. Finally continuing after their unfortunate interruption last night! And unless his Captain's roommates (were they even still there?) decided to intervene, ZEX wasn't about to be interrupted again. He needed this right now, he thought firmly. More than usual.
