[Mano Berwyn]

It had been easy enough for Mano and Eros to get into the shop downstairs, and from there even easier to get up into the apartment. When they entered the living room, Mano went straight for the little cabinet where he knew Emilian kept his drinks and pulled out a glass bottle. "Do you want something?" he asked from his place squatting in front of the open door.

[Eros d'Avonderre]

Eros pulled his eyes from their inspection of the room, down to where Mano was. "Yes, please," he said. Emilian was bound to have something of quality in there. He resumed looking around. It was small, though no smaller than his own flat, but decently furnished. "So where did you find these pictures scattered?" he asked absently. He crossed to the nearest flat surface, an unlikely place, since it was so visible, and began idly lifting things to look beneath them.

[Mano Berwyn]

"Um," Mano said absently as he pulled out another bottle and glasses and began pouring. "There was a stack in the kitchen in a corner, and they were under the edge of the bed..." He hadn't looked under the couch or in many places at all in the living room. "There were a couple on that desk over there, but I didn't look so much in here as I did in the bedroom."

[Eros d'Avonderre]

Eros's eyes flickered toward the door that had to be the bedroom. "I do believe I'll save that particular area for dessert," he murmured. He had the sheet set from the photograph memorized already-- he and the photo had enjoyed some time together that first evening with Mano --but he wanted to have the majority of the search complete before he allowed himself to become truly distracted. A stack in the kitchen, Eros mused, and under the bed. He abandoned the surface he'd been going over and brought out his wand. Wingardium Leviosa.

[Mano Berwyn]

Mano turned his head to look at Eros and then focused on pouring out their drinks and closing the bottles again. He picked his up and leaned against the edge of the short cabinet. He had had his fill of finding pictures the first time he had visited, and this was more for Eros' benefit than his own. That didn't mean he didn't want to see any new pictures, but he was more interested in helping Emilian finish off some of his stores.

[Eros d'Avonderre]

Eros stepped back from the piece of furniture he was levitating, and his lips spread into a grin. He tossed a glance back at Mano. "I do believe I've found something." Eros let the furniture down gently, then sighed at himself. "I really should think before I allow myself to be overcome with giddiness," he said.

"I hope that Emilian doesn't have any picture books this will disturb. Accio Michael's photographs." He should have done this in the first place. There was a light flutter, and a small stack of photos found their way to Eros's waiting hand. He smirked. This wouldn't excuse Emilian's house from an inspection, but it would at least keep him entertained through a drink or two.

[Mano Berwyn]

Mano raised an eyebrow and sat down, gesturing for Eros to sit by him on the couch. He reached over to pick up Eros' drink. "Come on, then, let me see." If it hadn't been for him Eros wouldn't even know about them, anyway. No, Mano wasn't helping to find the pictures, but he deserved to see, too.

[Eros d'Avonderre]

"In good time," Eros said. He leafed through them, one brow permanently arched as he crossed the room. When he reached the couch, he sat beside Mano, switching all the photos to one hand and switching them for the glass that Mano had poured him. "I've only seen a few, so don't think you'll be absconding with any just yet," he said. So far, it had been tamer versions of the copy he had at the flat, the two of them locked together at the mouth, but with their trousers in place.

[Mano Berwyn]

Mano set the little stack on his thigh and started flipping through, seeing nothing he hadn't seen before. "I wonder if I found all the bad ones last time..." he mused as he flipped through the first few of them. Then his eyes widened briefly as he saw the next picture. "Or not," he said, picking up the picture to hold out in front of them.

[Eros d'Avonderre]

"Merlin's arse," Eros murmured. "The boy's begging for a romp, isn't he?" It was Michael's pet laid out on that bed-- lounging on the bed --eying the camera and ready to go. Colored hair aside, Eros couldn't blame Michael for accepting that invitation. Especially as one long-fingered hand settled on the boy's abdomen to make slow circles.

[Mano Berwyn]

Mano blinked slowly and then continued to watch the figure in the picture move. "Just a little," he said, "I...ah, I like that picture." He had half a mind to take it with him. He didn't think that Michael and Dare would miss it very much, considering they hadn't even noticed, as far as he knew from what Emilian had told him, that the others were gone.

[Eros d'Avonderre]

Eros glanced aside at Mano, then dropped his gaze to the picture again. "I'm finding it inspiring as well," he admitted. "One would have to be straight or a lesbian not to appreciate it. I do believe copies will need to be made." He reached over to pluck the photograph from Mano's hand. "I do believe I need another glass," he said, holding his aside as he raised the picture slightly. There was no poorly-timed cloth this time, only a loop of that boy silently begging for a f~.

[Mano Berwyn]

Mano absently reached for the bottle he had used for Eros' glass and handed it to him. Eros could pour his own glass, he wanted to focus on the next picture that had to have been taken soon after the previous. His eyes hovered on it for a moment before he flipped to the next, one similar in setting and pose, but different in many ways. Michael was still clothed from the waist down, though it was obvious that the front was undone, and though he had a look very similar to Dare's in the other, there was a hint of shyness that didn't surprise Mano in the slightest. "It looks like they don't have much time off..." he commented, noticing dark marks on Michael's chest.

[Eros d'Avonderre]

Eros's brow arched again. "At least his libido's finally in order. I did wonder about his health on occasion." He looked for a moment in silence, then glanced away long enough to refill his glass, and while he was at it, he topped off Mano's as well. "I'll need a copy of that one, too." He took a long drink as he looked back at the remaining pictures. "Do go on, this is a fascinating insight."

[Mano Berwyn]

Mano took another drink as he watched the picture of Michael for another couple of moments before flipping to the next. He had to agree with Eros about Michael's libido, it had always been so strange to have Michael around them and so very different when it came to anything physical. But if the pictures were any clue, it had all caught up with him finally.
