open up now (don't you think it's time?)
Who: Steven Durante + the other Rockets
Where: Goldenrod Rocket Base in the starter + Tyler's thread, Handsome Jack's place otherwise
When: Late February, immediately after the fossil heist + 10
Summary: Someone is having a quiet crisis following their very first heist! Also, fall-out from some personal revelations + meeting a new Rocket.
Rating: PG-13, with some threads going up to R in terms of language and conversational subjects.Anything too wicked goes to an inbox.
Steven Durante's quieter than usual on their way back from Dirk's Fossil Heist. He keeps looking at his hands. And when it comes to turning in the bag of fossils and collecting their rewards, he doesn't even bother asking if he, Connie, and the other Steve will get promotions from this.
Sure, when the time has come for them to claim their weird abomination fossils, he immediately jumps to claiming one the Pokedex claims is called a 'Dracozolt'--but otherwise, he seems unusually subdued. Something is definitely on his mind and has been since... well, even before Steve P and Connie caught up with him and Dirk.
Dirk might be able to hazard a guess as to what's bothering him. Anyone else probably has to ask.

Unless they do anything to indicate they are not, in fact, 'his' any longer. Then all bets are off. But Jack's pretty sure that's not something he has to worry about here. Sure, it'd dicier when a relationship is built on emotions, but...
Jack knows when someone's well on the way to being pretty devoted, and he's gonna just slide Steven on into that category. He flips his hand over to twine his fingers with the other man's, still grinning.
"And I'm especially gonna look after my boyfriend."

He smiles. Lets his fingers trace over the line of Jack's collar. "Your boyfriend, huh. I think I like that better than 'night time fun buddy.'"
no subject
Jack gives him a wink.
"A package deal." Which still surprises Jack, but he knows he probably shouldn't be at this point. He's Handsome Jack! Things work out for him. Sure, sometimes he has to put in the boring grind work, pay his dues, be patient....but it always pays off.
"Now how about we finish dinner and get ready for bed, huh?"
