yourself up for that you just gotta do your job and keep going and if Ralph really is out to get us or something then we’ll go get him first and I think we really can take him on I mean he’s just one guy and he’s not even as smart as you and we’re a team so what chance does he have?” The roadrunner swung the long feathers of his tail over Tech’s hips, letting them come to rest across his sheath. Rather than twitching, they simply lay there, warm and intimate.

“I don’t think he’s coming after us,” Tech said, grinning at Rev’s impassioned speech. He held the grin on his muzzle and hesitated. Here was the point where he ventured from history into speculation. The roadrunner’s eyes showed nothing but trust. “I think we’re an obstacle.”

“An obstacle but that would mean he’s after something else do you know what or have any idea we’re guardians of Acmetropolis so if we’re an obstacle then he must be after Acmetropolis itself whoa wow Tech are you sure how come we haven’t heard of this guy?”

Something in Tech’s chest loosened and relaxed. He nuzzled Rev’s topknot again, letting his whiskers slide through the barbs of the feathers. “I’m not sure. I need to check it out.”

“You meant to say we need to check it out right I’m sure it was just a slip of the tongue which usually is okay because you sure know how to use that thing but in this case you’re not gonna get away with it.” Determination met faith in Rev’s expression.

“Yeah.” Tech’s smile blossomed. “That’s what I meant.”

Rev nodded. “Okay then just so we got that straight or maybe clear is a better word and don’t worry about the prisoner I’m sure it’ll be okay just get up early and write your report and then we’ll deal with this Ralph character.”

“You don’t think I should write my report now, and get it over with? Now that I don’t have to sit control room duty tonight?” He teased Rev’s side with a finger.

The roadrunner shook his head, sliding his lanky form onto Tech’s to straddle him. “If you think you can write like this then go ahead and try it but right now you need to sleep on it and if I have to stay here all night I’m gonna make sure you do besides you wouldn’t kick a naked roadrunner out of your bed would you?”

Tech wrapped his arms around the slender body, pressing Rev’s feathers into his fur. “Never,” he said, and brought his muzzle up to kiss Rev, marveling at the precious intimacy of that moment, the feeling of finding just the right connection.
