seduction

When Roy made fuhrer he was going to make the world a better place, absolutely, but that didn’t mean he wasn’t going to enjoy his immense power. He started by moving into the biggest mansion he could find. That was easy. The next thing on his list was making the man he loved move in with him. That might prove slightly more difficult.

He was going to do this subtly, with luring and wooing. He invited Ed (who else?) over for dinner, to broach the subject.

It started well, the chandeliers sparkled, the food was great, the wine was better. During the second course Roy made his move by hinting at his humongous library full of rare texts. Ed snorted.
“You know, everyone who ever tried to get it off with me used that line,” he sighed. “I’m not that single minded, you know.”
Roy was hurt. He had never been accused of being predictable before. Wait a second.
“Everyone?” he frowned. “Just how many is everyone?”
Ed rolled his eyes.
“You didn’t think you were the first did you? Hell, I’ve been around for years.”
Roy was now hurt and jealous.
“But I love you,” he pouted.
“I love you too,” Ed shrugged, as if this was a given.
This was somewhat mollifying.
