"Then we won't," Gamzee decides, since keeping the snake is what will make Tavros happy. Though honestly, he doesn't really need a potion to influence him that direction - he's never paid much attention to the rules unless he's getting in trouble. "Little baby like that, won't be no thing to hide him, come time for it."

Tavros feels so good against his side, he wonders how he could have ever let this go, even if the other boy wasn't into him that way - unrequited or not, didn't love feel grand? He indulges himself, dipping his head to nuzzle at the smaller boy's hair, breathing him in. "Damn, but you smell good. Like motherfuckin' amazing."
