After Misto had gone home, Victor set about the processes of getting clean. Clothes covered the evidence for now, while he searched out the means of a bath.
Going through his mother's stuff, without telling her, he managed to find some bubble bath. Perfect. Since he knew where the tub his mother had as as well, it was soon outside his den, a hose filling it with hot water. And lots of bubbles.
He relaxed, the cleaning done. Now he could lounge in his hot bubbles, while enjoying the sun as well. The thick foam maintaining a modesty since he was out side where anyone could walk past.

"I'm a dude, he's a dude, she's a dude, we're all dudes, HEY!"
Oh, the horrors of old Nick, which Plato had the misfortune of witnessing through the open window of someone's flat. The family always watched reruns, it seemed, and while Plato wasn't exactly fond of humans he'd been drawn by the sound two months ago, was amazed as he climbed up the fire escape to watch and had made a bi-weekly habit of going by that apartment, climbing up, and watching until they'd turn the TV off. He'd become particularly obsessed with Kenan and Kel, and all their antics on All That.
It was a shame.... for anyone who knew Plato, that is, as that day he was particularly loud and obnoxious as he sang and walked, not giving a damn otherwise. "I'm a dude, he's a dude, she's a dude, VICTOR'S A HOMO, HEY!"
Grin.
"What the hell's with the bubbles?"

"Bubbles are cool," Victor responded smoothly, scooping a handful and blowing them at Plato.
"Some of us like to get clean once in a while," he added, smirking. "Some of us do stuff to get dirty once in a while."
He grinned at Plato. "For a homo, I get more boobs than you do."

"Bubbles are gay," Plato replied, his default for anything he wasn't exactly a huge fan of, or well, something he wasn't too familiar with. Bubblebaths were definitely on that list. Then again, Plato sometimes would go for days without bathing, such was the life as a stray who was usually too stoned to remember.
Or too single.
But then the challenge. Plato snorted. "No, you don't."

"Yes I do," Victor retorted, not missing a beat. This was a very common type of conversation. "The girls want to sleep with me. I don't go around begging for it like someone I know."
"Water's nice," he added sweetly.

"DUDE!" Plato said, seemingly horribly offended. Almost outraged. "That is SO not cool! Don't you know how HARD Alonzo tries to get babes?! Give him a break! It's a vibrant effort!" Valiant, vibrant, same thing, really. And well, the idea that Victor could be referring to HIM PERSONALLY was impossible because Plato was just AWESOME.
And there it came.
He sighed.
"And Victor, I'll only join you if you promise you won't be heartbroken when I turn you down. I know you want me, but I don't swing that way." Still, he pulled off his shirt, giving a sniff by his armpit. Yeah, definitely could go for a bathing. His sneakers came next, then baggy jeans and boxers before he hopped over the end of the tub and in, wincing as if he forgot how wet water really was.

"Sure," Victor humoured Plato. "Alonzo needs help."
"I've got someone to satisfy my just fine, thankyou," he said to Plato as he got in. "So I don't need to be hitting on you."

"Who? Your left or your right hand?" Plato joked with a grin as he stretched back. Yeah right that Victor would actually be seeing someone. That was a joke in itself.

Victor just flicked bubbles at Plato.
"I'll have you know that I'm seeing someone," he said matter-of-factly. "And they use both hands."

Plato quirked a brow. "... you're seeing someone?"
Pause.
"AHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA! Oh MAN, you really had me on that one for a second! Everlasting Cat, you're funny sometimes. It's okay, man. Seriously. You don't need to cover up wanting me so long as you're cool with us being friends. I ain't gonna treat you differently."

Victor tilted his head. "You seriously believe that," he said. "No matter, you'll find out soon enough. He'll probably be back later today."

That was when Plato stopped laughing. "He'll be back later today?" A reiteration, although in question. His face became more serious then, the laughter gone.
"You're really not joking, are you?"
A moment of awkwardness.
"I uh..."
Another moment.
"Well..."
Pause.
"Well, hey. That's cool, man. I mean, like, I'm happy for you and all."
Stall.
"So uh. So who's the lucky uh... who's the lucky tom?"
It seemed like the bachelor's club was getting smaller.

"Ah, nope," Victor said, raising an admonishing finger. "For doubting, you have to wait. It's more fun for me that way. You don't get to find out 'til he gets here. Or someone else says."
Partly, he just wanted Misto to be there when he told Plato. It seemed better that way.

"Oh, well that's not fun," Plato pouted, arms folding in front of his chest, somewhat splashing his friend in the meanwhile before scrubbing up the fur on his arms.

Victor swirled the water around him, piling the bubbles us higher.
"You really need to get yourself a girl," Victor said to Plato. "That way you can stop creeping on everyone else," he added with a grin. "Even Tugger's pretty regular with Bomba."

'Lonzo was roaming around as per usual, strutting his stuff for the ladies. He was whistling, smirking, smiling wide, showing his pearly whites, flexing the guns, and overall just being the cock of the walk. And then he stumbled upon Victor and Plato in a tub. Together. With bubbles.
"HEY HOMOS! What the fuck are you two doing in a bubble bath together? Seriously! I always knew you were for the dudes."

"Lonzmeister, sup bro?" Plato laughed as he shifted forward, making a fist for a knuckle punch as if the idea of him being gay were that ridiculous he didn't need to defend it. And well, Plato was that confident. Always.
"Did you know that Victor's actually SEEING someone?"

Post by lonzo on May 25, 2010 14:17:22 GMT -5
Brushing it off as usual. 'Lonz just laughed with him and gave him the ol' knuckle punch back. He leaned against the tub, suddenly not caring if his fur got wet. It already looked pretty disheveled and gritty anyway, some water couldn't hurt. But he was no where near as nasty dirty as Plato.
"Really?! Victor?"
'Lonzo arched a brow, grinned wide, and socked Vic on the side of the head. Playfully of course. "Well congrats dude!" Inside the Tom was completely jealous though. He hadn't had any luck with ladies recently.

"Yeah, ahahaha. We're like... celibate-ory now."
Sort of sounded like celebratory...
Plato scooted aside before gesturing for the water. "Room for more. 'Sides, you smell like arse." Just playful banter as he took scooped bubbles up in his hands, rose to his feet, not caring about being on display, and scruffed up the other's hair with a delightful laugh before he dropped in the tub once more.

"You're hardly one to comment about smells, Plato," Victor teased.
"Besides which, I don't think Lonz will ever look clean. You could scrub him 'til he's raw, and he'd still look filthy."

"Ahahahahha! Dirty bastard indeed." And, to be obnoxious, Plato gave Alonzo another splash.

The black and white Tom batted Plato away, shaking his head and ended up getting soap in his eye instead. "ARG!" He flailed around a little, wiping at his eye frantically. Fortunately, it wasn't that bad, it just stung like a bitch for a few seconds. "That's right, the ladies like the scruff look." He winked at imaginary babes and then climbed into the tub with the other two. Why not?
"You know, Plato, the ladies like a Tom that smells good." And then 'Lonzo proceeded to dunk his best friend, laughing all the while. "Gotta make sure to scrub you down! Hahaha!" He looked over at Victor, grinning like a cheeky bastard. "Care to help?"

"Alright," Victor said, shuffling over to the pair. Rather than help push Plato, he put his hand on Alonzo's head and dunked him under.
"You really should have know better Lonz," he said.

"Gah! Dude, I know you want me but you put my head WAY too close to your dick on that one," Plato snorted, spluttering a little after surfacing as he shook his head to rid the excess water, then laughed, a hand offered for a high five with Victor.
"Nice one, man."

"You know you liked it," he winked and puffed out his chest and gyrated for Plato.
"Dam-!" And then his head was submerged underwater. He growled and wrestled his way back, coughing slightly and spit out bubbly water. "Bastards," he growled out. But then he laughed and clapped his paws on both their shoulders.

Victor grinned, putting his arm around Alonzo's shoulders, and the other around Plato's.
"Think quick!" he said, moving his hands to their heads and dunking both of them.

One of Plato's legs came out of the water with the dunk before he brought it under, his arms wrapping around Victor's torso to pull the other tom under before re-emerging with a hard laugh, leaning back against the edge of the tub. "Oh lordy," he cackled. "Haven't had that much fun in awhile."
By that point, his headfur was flat against his scalp, the bangs in the front he was trying to grow out to curl like Tugger's fell pathetically in his eyes before he shoved it aside, small bubbles glistening in his fur.

Victor re-emerged after having been drawn down by Plato.
"You look like a pair of drowned rats," he said, in deference of his own appearance being the same.

'Lonzo sputtered as he was pushed back into the water, flailing about like a kitten. He jumped up after Victor, coughing and shaking his head furiously. Water really did not agree with him it seemed. Especially water with bubbles. His head fur was sticking out all over the place at this point too, he would always look scruffy and dirty.
"Haha! Look at yourself, bud!" Alonzo laughed, and slapped Victor on the back, and at the last second he decided to push his friend under again, laughing so hard his hand slipped and of course he had to fall face first into the water. Again. Geeze, his life!

Plato couldn't help but laugh, head shaking. Sometimes he just adored the guys. Best batch of toms he knew. Especially Alonzo, really.
