#for all intents and purposes mars is geologically dead, nothing but the dust-devils move, the ground is barren the water gone, nothing churns in the great volcanoes, the sun beats down cruelly stripping the ravaged planet even further, no life grows there but life may at one point have and so would be able to do so. two men will spend a third of a martian year trying to prove that it is possible

#he knew felix was awake as soon as he could hear the heavy slither of fabric but it was still a pleasant shock when warm lips found him and curling his toes he shivered happily at the sensation. "g-good evening, felix"
----------------------------------------------
#His lips tasted chocolate again before speaking. "Good Evening Zosa." his eyes flickered towards the screen again. "How much trouble are you in for not calling and emailing instead?" His head twisted so that it was resting on Zosa's shoulder. Taking a deep breath the boy smelled deliciously like food.
----------------------------------------------
#if anything the act of being smelled was more erotic than the kisses especially given the wanton way the other exhaled and in an effort not to be tempted he tried to shy away from the other. "more than enough, auntie says she will have to beat punctuality back into us both if i make anymore of a habit and i bel-ah-h-h f-fe-licks!" he writhed as his efforts were thoroughly undermined by nibbles down his neck
----------------------------------------------
#He let out a playful hmm, pausing in his kisses to give Zosa time to gather his wits. “Belha Felicks?†He said amused. One free arm found its way around Zosa's waist drawing the boy closer to him as he inhaled around the curve of the boys neck. “Fe licks?†He said pressing his tongue against the chocolate flesh.
----------------------------------------------
#he did his best not to make any sounds as felix teased him with both words and touches though the tongue was too much and jerking away reflexively he found himself sliding off the side of the too-small chair and onto the floor
----------------------------------------------
#The professor could not help but laugh. He pulled himself up from the floor and gathered Zosa to set him upright as well. "No no, no more of this, I am famished and I would like to see more of Russia before I get bed sores." He gave Zosa one last kiss before pushing his glasses back along the bridge of his nose. "I did not get Aunties recipe but would you like some bread or dumplings for dinner?"
----------------------------------------------
#"i will let you in on a secret felix, auntie hasn't made her bread in years, but i can make it if you want." he grinned as he was led to the door, "though if you don't put clothes on we might not get very far"
----------------------------------------------
#The professor folded his arms giving Zosa a defiant look. "You should learn some restraint, for that I am not wearing anything." Smiling he strutted out of the room and beckoned Zosa to follow him. "You make the bread I will make the rest of dinner."
----------------------------------------------
#the cocky way felix sauntered off was a challenge he could not pass up and stripping out of his jeans he hurriedly followed the other down the stairs. "i accept your challenge and the same goes to you, loser buys winner dinner, deal?"
----------------------------------------------
#The professor turned his head and concealed a quirk in his lips."Deal. If we shake does that count?" He wondered allowed. "Because If it isn't then I will seal the deal." He turned abruptly and caught Zosa on his lips.
----------------------------------------------
#he only accepted the kiss for a moment before pulling away, "don't cheat, i didn't see that one but the next is an out"
----------------------------------------------
#The professor nodded. "Am I allowed my apron while cooking or shall we go un protected?" He wondered. "I will be fine but I do not think you are ready to be grey before your time." As he gestured to the hair below he thought of Zosa in flour and smiled."
----------------------------------------------
#this time he laughed and clearing the stairs he headed for the kitchen "if you don the apron then i will lose, play fair felix"
----------------------------------------------
#"fine, I will not cheat, but please do not get hair in the bread." He walked around the kitchen until he found a fork. he used it to tie his hair in a bun keeping it out of his face and out of danger of falling into dinner. "What would you like for dinner?"
----------------------------------------------
#mindless of felix's plight he found himself an apron to prevent against accidental cross-contamination, "and you don't get hair in anything else, mine is gross but yours is downright dangerous. surprise me though if you know egg-drop soup i would not mind that or something close"
----------------------------------------------
#He simply grinned. "That is fine but I want something more then soup." He started to roam around the room fishing out things. Silently he moved humming as he started to cook the food in a sauce pan.
----------------------------------------------
#watching felix move around he already felt the first pangs of desire and had to look away quickly, "then make something you want instead..."
(he so will not win XD)
----------------------------------------------
#"Do not fret, I am. I plan to make a quiche, your soup and possibly something for dessert. " he twisted looking back at the boy at the other counter. He strolled over to the other side of the room, looming over him with out touching his skin. After an inspection he wondered "How long has it been since you have cooked bread?"
----------------------------------------------
#"um, eight years? we made breads on the maialynn bust i have not made this since before i left home, do not worry, i still remember the recipe like it was only a month or so ago." sparing the man a look he winked, "i won't feed you bad bread felix"
----------------------------------------------
#"That wink... it tells me other wise, that some trick is involved." Shaking his head he went back to his side of the kitchen to prepare the ingredients for the quiche. "How do you remember things from that young? At least the positive things?"
----------------------------------------------
#"i don't know, i just do, and it does not spare me the bad things as well. you remember it all or you remember nothing, i guess it is why i am proficient with electronics, it either is or is not"
----------------------------------------------
#"I remember fragments, moments that feel like dreams so I assume they are. I have my store of knowledge that I know, that I have trained all my life to know, about mars, about theoretically living on the planet, about living on the moon and so forth, I don't remember doing things like making cakes with my mother, or how to make them, I don't remember if there were any tender moments between Jimmy and I or Joshua and I." He paused to find a pot filling it with water for the soup. "Do you remember specific things you have done with Lykus or your mother?"
----------------------------------------------
#it made him feel sad to hear such things and he was almost did not answer, ".....i do, many things, i can remember conversations and actions as clearly as if i were watching them on film..... i.. i.... i am sorry felix"
----------------------------------------------
#The professor turned to Zosa with a reassuring smile. "It is alright Zosa, had I known I wanted those memories I would not have drank them away." He wanted to touch Zosa to reassure him but his fingers curled away at the reminder of the bet between them. "Don't you be sorry, I am making new memories." He grinned walking over to Zosa with a spoon in his hand before the boy could speak, he put the cream into his mouth. "I remember the day I stick my finger in your mouth, you were functioning normally then, and I am sure you are now. I remember your drugging you and then rocking you to sleep." There was a faint embarrassing flush on the professors face. "I will not forget the pomegranate sauce or making you feel special on your birthday."
----------------------------------------------
#he could not help himself and disregarding their competition he pulled the other close and held him. "...if i could i would remember for you"
----------------------------------------------
#Instinctively his arm wrapped around Zosa's "It will be fine, like I said I am making new ones, you can remember these for me in case I forget." He found himself kissing Zosa's forehead "But now I have a taste for your special flavored water.. Does it go well with quiche?"
----------------------------------------------
#lughtly he barked a laugh even as he pulled the other closer, "'special flavored water'? do you mean my pomegranate sauce or do you mean something a little less tart?" lightly he kissed felix back, "i wouldn't know, i have never had keeshe"
----------------------------------------------
#He grinned "Well it is not a rue, and when you add the powder to water it is pretty much flavored water." He said before turning back to his area of the kitchen. "If you have had a omelet you have pretty much had a quiche. It is egg with some type of feeling, similar to custard being a egg cake."
----------------------------------------------
#he was not certain that sounded good but he did not voice his concerns and only offered a smile before realizing he was still touching felix. "so i guess i lost though this was not the sort of touch i had thought would end this"
----------------------------------------------
#The professor ran his fingers along the side of zosa's face before chuckling lightly. "I say it does not count since my intentions with the bet were purely sexual. We can start over once we let go and get back to cooking." He took the time to steal a kiss while they were in a neutral zone.
----------------------------------------------
#nodding lightly he pulled away, "ok felix, let's do that." when he managed to dig through the cupboards he found that everything was written in russian and though he realized this should have been obvious he blushed in shame. "felix, i can't read the labels on anything"
----------------------------------------------
#He raised an eyebrow and looked at the cabinet. "You can not taste what you are using?" He said looking a the foreign symbols. "I know that is at least flour, and that is... salt." He said reaching to take up a container.
----------------------------------------------
#he shook his head even as a long thin arm reached over his shoulder, "i could but i wouldn't, if i accidently ate soda i think i would have to turn away from eating anything for a while"
----------------------------------------------
#"Did you just make a fart joke?...Nevermind. Zosa, I can read a little of this, the rest we can translate through the laptop. I am sure we can work something out." He grinned. "I learned a little while you slept."
----------------------------------------------
#that he would was obscenely stupid and he shook his head again even as he fell to a smile, "it's the only time you ever learned anything, ok felix, you lead"
----------------------------------------------
#"No, I took a class to learn Greek, with a very sexy teacher." He said pilfering through the cabinets to gather the basic words he knew. "I think I even had a crush on him." He said playfully.
----------------------------------------------
#"i think i have met your teacher, he only knew a few words of russian and very little of it was written" grinning he stayed still so that felix had to reach past him each time he wished to take something. "unless of course we are not thinking of the same teacher"
----------------------------------------------
#"We may not be, the one I knew was fantastic with Greek, I learned my Russian from a computer. He came close to the boy, nearly enough to touch but did not. Arching over Zosa he started to roam the cabinet for supplies. "Unless it is the same guy, you know the one that has very nice biceps. Though you should have seen my swimming teacher, he looked nice in a speedo."
----------------------------------------------
#he could not help the unmanly giggle that fell from his lips, "no but i saw your swim teacher once, he also looked very nice in nothing at all if i remember correctly"
----------------------------------------------
#The professor turned. His hand twitched but he managed to reign himself before molesting Zosa. "I think he was damn sexy, and one hell of a flotation device...Zosa will get you the laptop? I don't know which is the word for baking soda."
----------------------------------------------
#lightly he turned, "now, now, if you talk like that i may get jelous and start thinking you've cheated on me." chuckling he found his way up the stairs and grabbed the laptop from the desk before heading back down
----------------------------------------------
#As soon as Zosa returned, the professor logged into his Russian language program and found the words of the ingredients that Zosa needed. "I suppose the only other person who could capture my affections would be another you." He said grinning. "Are you making basic bread or do you need other ingredients too?"
----------------------------------------------
#he grinned back, "it is basic in greece but i will need lots of things, i am sure we have them though, it has been a while since any of us have lived here but i am sure we are not entirely without the taste of home"
#The professor looked troubled. "Zosa I am not sure some of the ingredients translate." He pointed to the word semolina when the computer kept asking him if he meant salmonella."It should be in greek right?"
----------------------------------------------
#looking over felix's shoulder he realized he knew what that one was, "semolina is a type of durum, look for something similar to porridge mixture or course cornmeal only white. i think it is in a blue can"
----------------------------------------------
#"Porridge? Is that like Oat meal?" He said looking for the bright blue container that often graced the tops of Greek homes. He spied two blue cans in the back of he cabinet and reached over Zosa to retrieve them. "Do you think either of these are it?"
----------------------------------------------
#he looked at both and instantly recognized which one was the correct container, "it is the one that says 'misko' that is the brand's name. you can put back the other one felix and help me find the honey. that one i am sure cannot be mistaken"
----------------------------------------------
#the professor threw his hands in the air in mock defeat not sure he would be able to tell the two apart. He walked over to the cabinet and laughed pulling both a bottle of whiskey and honey from it. He held up both bottles jokingly. "I dunno Zosa I can not read Russian all that well."
----------------------------------------------
#rolling his eyes he came over and took the honey from felix, "i am sure you cannot read greek or english either and yet you speak both, use the computer"
----------------------------------------------
#He mockingly groaned fringing back pain. "Or maybe i am just getting old. Zosa be a dear and put that can up for me?" He grabbed the bottle and put it back on the shelf before moseying back to his own food that he was preparing. "Will it cook on the same temp as the quiche?"
----------------------------------------------
#rolling his eyes he did as he was bid. "you only act old out of bed. it is how i know you are full of shit felix dear, but to answer your question i do not know. i have never had keeshe and consequently have never made it before"
----------------------------------------------
#He laughed. "That is because beds are the fountains of youth." He turned not giving a damn about their little bet any more. He reached out and pushed aside Zosa's hair along his face and kissed him. "and so are the bodies they contain. It will be delicious, we just have to keep them both from burning."
----------------------------------------------
#his mouth watered but not for keeshe or bread. quickly he pressed in another kiss then another. "felix, you've lost the bet." the sweet lips broke away from his only long enough for a laugh and an 'i know' before meeting up with his own again
----------------------------------------------
#His fingers searched the cool flesh along Zosa's jaw line. "It only means that I can choose were we will eat and when to redeem this bet." He said slyly before taking another kiss. He laughed "It also means dinner maybe delayed depending on our antics."
----------------------------------------------
#he grinned broadly and pressing forward so that he could wrap his arms around felix, pushed him against the island, "fuck dinner. no, fuck me"
Covered in butter and having churned cream all over Zosa's apron, he tried to slide off. Instead an arm was tucked under his limp limbs and he was carried upstairs. He found himself laughing. “Zosa... what are you going to use to make bread? You let your other loaf rise to much, though I like the way you knead.”
it was difficult to carry the taller man up the stairs and he had to pause to kiss the other into quieting, "i have decided to go without bread, instead we are having felix and zosa soup"
He raised an eyebrow and then found himself resting his head on Zosa's shoulder. "As much as I love Zosa and Professor soup, I would prefer it to eat something real as well." He found himself staring at the pale flesh area where the watch used to be. "Well we should hurry, I do not want to burn dinner."
He shook his head. "It will take another 30 minutes in the oven, so that is how long we have." He clenched his but feeling the butter along his thighs. He arched forward kissing Zosa. "Zosa, please do not clean me with soap as you used the butter."
he was pulled away from his worrying by the kiss and offered one in return before ascending the stairs once more, "i want to bathe you felix, you do not have to worry"
He was starting to like this house for all of its usual charms, such as the giant tub. His feet could comfortably uncurl and it easily fit Zosa as well. He sank into the warm water waiting for Zosa but found the boy had other plans, and when he said that he would be clean, it seemed the lad meant it. Soft hands messaged the entirety of his body and when the hands made their way to his head the professor took the opportunity to clean the remains of the butter off Zosa flooding his senses with the taste of butter.
the keeshe was not burned luckily though not from any effort on felix's part to watch it. they ended up hardly getting clean at all though it was worth it for what he got instead and as they worked to finish the rest of the meal he made a special note to get something nice to make up for it later when they went shoping
He smiled stretching his long limbs arching over the back of the chair before contorting back into his place. He wondered what type of restaurants would he find in Russia since he proved he could not keep his hands off Zosa. Slicing a piece of the quiche with his fork he offered it to the open mouth. "Zosa what kinda of life is there here?"
he realized he did not like the flavor after his own first bite but ate the last four just so he could enjoy how proud felix was of his supposed delight with the gross concoction. he took the bite and offered one of his own in return as he swallowed. "plenty of places to drink but mostly it is fast-food and souvenirs and museums. i suppose they were only thinking of the scientists trainees and their families because everything is catered to them." this time he captured the hand and spoon and lifted it so he could kiss a henna'd palm, "but we are tourists so i think it does not matter if they have a library or a meeting-house"
"Then a walk for now." He said putting his fork down. "If there is one thing I miss, it is the long stretches where you and I could walk through the gardens together." He found himself grinning. "Besides I want Auntie to have something to work towards when we get back to Greece." He said rubbing his stomach.
