( Mithrun follows the feeling, and every imagined hot trail of Barrett's tongue goes down between his thighs, no matter where his mouth starts. It's a clumsy and instinctive thing; his hand follows his mind, his mind trails down, and - Mithrun hasn't done this since his accident, and barely ever, even, before it. He doesn't recall how, he's fumbling, but he's sensitive and his imagination's vivid - a thing he's never employed before.
He doesn't even fully recognize what he's doing in that moment he's been carried away by the echoes of Barrett's voice in his ear, until much after, the daze worn off - and he doesn't know what to make of it, then.
It's better Barrett texts later, because Mithrun decides to take a shower after anyway. He feels sticky with sweat in the summer heat. )
Yes, I'm fine. Are you?
And yes, I'm going. I ended up joining Faunus's guild. So it's a guild activity, in some way. Will you have the time to come?
( The more logical part of him considers it shouldn't be that different than talking in Fragment, in that they exchange voices either way. Some other part of him he doesn't understand so well yet feels it's different - different in some way he can't articulate, having only Barrett's voice through the receiver. )
Then I'll leave a message to let you know when I land.

I heard things I think I shouldn't have.
I'm sorry.
...
He erases all of them before they're sent.]
Yeah. I'm okay now.
I can't stay for a long time. But I still want to make some time for it. I don't think I'll be online for a few days after.
I wanna enjoy my company while you're all in town. :-)

Then you should spend time with the people you'll miss, right? I'll be seeing you on Saturday, regardless.
( very pragmatic approach )
But if you want to say hello, I'll be there on the beach. I'll probably be fishing.

[Then, about half an hour later, when the nerves finally settle:]
Thanks for the phone call, by the way. I liked it.
no subject
He thinks on his reply - on if he liked it himself. )
We can call more often, if you want. I liked it, too.
no subject
Sure.
I wouldn't mind hearing your voice again.

( Instead of just texting. )

Oh. Oh a VOICE message.

He feels the smile split over his face before he even thinks about typing back.]
Okay. :-) I'll look forward to it.
