[The turn of phrase would be worth contemplation if Toby was in any state for it. As it is, he ends up focusing on that last bit that comes out of his boyfriend's mouth, though perhaps not in an ideal way given their current levels of intoxication.]

That's 'cause you didn't know I was out there yet. [He chuckles and presses a mis-aimed kiss to Dorian's cheek.] I'd not've been a good influence for younger Dorian, but I'd say we did all right for ourselves in the end, yeah? 'S just you and me now, here in this weird... sex city place. And we're doing well here!

[This would be so much more eloquent if he weren't so drunk, but he's offers it magnanimously and without shyness as it is.]

[In this moment, Dorian couldn't agree more with everything he's hearing. He'd agree even if he was stone-cold sober. As soon as he realized Toby was him, his entire world reoriented.]

We're here, and you're alive. [Reaching out, he basks drunkenly in the beautiful sight of the other man's face this close to his own, and then presses their lips together.]

And you would have been exactly the kind of influmance-- influence [He chuckles at his own silly slurring.] I was looking for as a young man. For better and worse.

[He leans into that kiss happily as it comes, swaying and knocking their mostly empty scotch bottle into the tub. It's a sad loss, but worth it.]

Certainly for worse, but it would've been worth it. [How could more time with his soulmate be anything else? They've got eternity ahead of them, but any second extra they could have is one the vampire wants. Smiling, albeit a bit distractedly, he leans in for another kiss and pulls the other man close.]

Love you, [he murmurs, sighing happily and stealing yet another kiss.] For better or worse.

[He smiles up at Toby, his arms slipping around the other man more completely. It's awkward in the tub and they're both being crammed up against porcelain in ways they'll regret later, but he doesn't care.]

For better or worse, [he agrees, fondly (and drunkenly).]

It would have been worth it. [Unintentionally silly, and overly enunciated indignation is a go.]

When I was young I was looking for everything and anyone who could show me anything new. And you-- [He hiccups a bit, pointedly poking a finger into Toby's chest.] nothing about you would have turned me away.

[He can't help but chuckle at the poke when it comes, drunkenly swiping for it and completely missing it. Not that he really cares, but he was going to put that hand to better use than chest pokes if he'd had the chance.]

Nothing turned you away even as a fully mature adult. [Another chuckle as he leans a bit too close to grin at his boyfriend, really getting in his face for... effect? It's hard to tell at this point.] S'why it was so easy to catch you. I knew you'd give chase once you'd caught a whiff of me.

It wasn't that easy. [Pouting is occurring, and in full force.]

That first time I saw you, you were using vampire charms. It's no wonder I couldn't take my eyes off you.

[He loves this adorable, pouting face so much. It's one of his favorites! Especially when they're both drunk.]

Only when I walked in the room! [Now it's his turn to poke his boyfriend's chest.] The rest was me being naturally charming. And manipulative, but you love that bit.

Rejecting me on the spot isn't charming. [But he's smiling as he says it.

He did 'love that bit'. Toby is undeniably charismatic, and nothing has driven him quite so crazy with interest and curiosity since.

It's a good memory.]

[He sees that smile and knows he's won. This might be one of the most morally corrupt things he's done to get his way, but does it really matter? They're here and very much in love with each other, which wasn't his plan at all that night in the 80s. It's an exciting happenstance, one they're both enjoying the benefits of.

Toby leans closer as he hides his boyfriend's chest one more, slightly too strong poke.] You're everything I didn't know I needed. I'd do it all again to end up back here with you.

[Dorian’s smile and eyes soften at that comment.]

Me too. [This might end up being stolen time if one or both of them eventually ends up getting ripped away from Duplicity again, but he doesn’t care about that right now.

Wrapping his fingers around the hand jabbing into his chest, he draws Toby’s up to press a kiss to the soft underside of his wrist.]

Have I made up for what I said earlier? [He might be turning on the penitent charm a bit. It would be really nice to make out with his boyfriend right now.]

[Dorian's obvious in what he wants, but this would be Toby not caring right now. They're both drunk, and he's feeling much better after laughing about and dunking on mortals for a bit. Having his boyfriend with him through all of it helps.]

Yeah. You're out of the woods. [He smiles and leans in for a clumsy kiss.] Keep being nice, and you can have whatever you want until we pass out tonight. [A beat.] Some kind of orgasm included.

I’ll be very nice. [Pleased that they’ve been able to make their way back to both of them being in a better place, Dorian gathers the other man closer and leans in to press his chest against the vampire’s. He finds Toby’s lips with his own (after a bit of clumsiness), sinking into the pleasure of kissing the other man in a savoring, and utterly unhurried manner. When they part, he exhales softly, and reaches up to thread his fingers within the other man’s mass of ruffled hair.]

All I want is to feel alive with you right now.

[All clumsiness is forgotten (unnoticed, actually) as Dorian presses their lips together. Toby wraps his arms around his boyfriend as they leisurely kiss the life from each other, eventually drawing the other man into his lap so he can better reach the lovely planes of his back.]

I'm good for that, [he murmurs, resting a hand on the back of Dorian's shoulder to draw him closer. Not pushing for anything, but needing to be closer now that the first part of their conversation has dissipated into the hot water around them.] I'm yours, always.
