Things are complicated, Danse realises. Church is complicated. Their relationship, professionally speaking, is complicated. What's a little fraternisation on top of that?

Summary
The way Church pitched his idea to Sturges made it sound like a perfectly reasonable proposition: have a drink, make some civilised small talk 'round the kitchen bench, then fuck in the warm afternoon sunlight while his big Brotherhood piece on the side watches with rapt adoration.
M!Survivor/Sturges fool around while Paladin Danse watches.

Summary
He finally finds what he’s looking for. A cut down yardstick, two inches wide, no longer than his forearm. Church pats it across his palm a few times.
“Paladin,” he says quietly. “Would you like me to use this on you?”

Summary
Church snorts and tries to cut off the conversation by getting up and taking their cups, but Sturges is quicker. He grabs him by the wrist and takes his empty mug back from him, letting it hit the coffee table with a satisfying clunk. “Sweets, flowers… I bet he’s trying to woo you like you’re the fairest maiden on the island. His new pretty girl.”
“You hit your head again?” He half-heartedly tries to tug himself free.
“Nope, pretty girl,” says Sturges, and he grins wide when Church scoffs. Handsome, maybe. Stately if pressed. Pretty he isn't. “Washing up can keep. Come sit on my lap.”

Summary
Deacon has done some colossally stupid things in his time, but this might be way, way, way up on the list. Top five easily. Top three if he narrows it down to professional engagements only, but hoooboy. Talk about a payoff.

Summary
Sturges talks about love a lot, as if it's as easy and natural as breathing, mentioned off-handedly like a statement of unshakable fact, and doesn’t care a whit that the phrase ‘I love you’ makes Church purse his lips like an ol’ maiden.

Summary
Deacon takes Church back to his room, cramped and dark with a narrow slat bed and a washbasin and not much else, and gets him naked with more eagerness than he was expecting from himself. Maybe he's just curious. Maybe he’s excited to see how the asshole he wasted his life trailing around had been shipwrecked on time’s rocky shore.
Or he just wants to get his dick sucked. That's acceptable too.
