[ it is nice, not being concerned about these things, and maybe max was a little bit lucky in that he had much bigger problems to worry about than sexuality and how it's taken by the rest of the world. all of his fucks were used up on other things, then again, he isn't known to have a great abundance of fucks to give in the first place. his fuck-fields, they are barren.
but hey, lemurs are cute, and while arthur's having a small internal crisis, max is smiling softly at the fuzzy monkey things bouncing around and playing on the other side of the guardrail. his lips part, about to go off on a story about some other monkeys he ran into in the amazon rain forests, but then arthur's talking about experiments and guidance?
look, he made the proposition, yes, but he wasn't at all expecting it to be taken up. that, however, does not mean he'll let the opportunity to make out with arthur even a little bit pass him by, thank you very much. sorry, merlin, but some things you just can't say no to. it's for the betterment of merlin's possible future relationship anyway, okay? okay. ]
Arthur Pendragon, do you want me to be your queer sensei? [ probably not the best or most reassuring answer, but his brain to mouth filter has never been great. whatever, ignore that. ] Don't worry about what that means, just come with me.
[ forgetting the lemurs entirely, max reaches down to grab arthur's wrist, tugging him along through the park as his eyes scan the area. they could slip into a maintenance closet maybe, but the thought of a space that small and enclosed already makes his skin crawl. maybe a bathroom, but those aren't much better. decision, decisions. Max ends up stopping in front of a wall covered in advertisements and pictures of animals featured, blocking off a section that's being remodeled, and all it takes is a short glyph traced on top of the lock to pop it open and slip behind the wall. come along, your majesty. ]
