WHO Shannon Vaughn (privatematter), Eli Delacroix (aspectional).
WHAT Eli is an idiot; Shannon is curious. How exactly does D/s go down when you're not to the Having Sex stage in the relationship yet?
WHEN Late 1990. Seven months after Jumpscapades.
WHERE Shannon's place.
Shannon was anxious. Not in a bad way, but the anticipatory way that everyone got when something new and exciting was going up and there was no way it could go badly, but predicting the end outcome was almost impossible. It was a great feeling, but one that left Shannon feeling like a teen heading out to prom instead of a grown man getting ready to have fun with his boyfriend and potentially make some hilariously heartfelt gestures to express his trust in Eli. That was probably something he didn't do enough in general, actually.
Breakfast had been something simple. Pancakes, fresh cut fruit and sausage. Eli had come over pretty early to get ready, talking over the generalities of what they were going to do while the specifics were to wait for after they were done. Well, now they were done and sitting on the couch, and Shannon's leg was jiggling even under the hand he had placed on his knee to keep himself still. Lacey had wandered off after breakfast, stomach filled with her own food and presumably was napping on the foot of the bed in Shannon's room. Probably for the better, really.
"So," he said, ignoring the obvious tell he was giving off. If Eli took it for misapprehension, then Shannon was going to definitely lean over and smack him. "Where do we start?"

It wasn't long from there that another opportunity came up. When they got into contact with Michelle about a possible session with the three of them, the party at the Chrysalis came up; it was Michelle's idea that they all go there together, as a test of Shannon's training and just to show off what a catch Eli had managed to land. With assurances of two people there to help keep Shannon out of trouble over just the one, it wasn't really a question. Now two weeks later, they arrived at the club dressed up high with their leathers and the like, Shannon already in his collar and having hesitantly consented to the leash more as a sign for others to keep away than to really drag him around on.
Most of all, he had a blindfold on this time. It was Eli's idea and one Shannon had approved of right away: making the other partygoers believe that Cross's new sub was merely so well-trained that he could go to a party blindfolded and have minimal issues. It gave Shannon a semblance of power, no matter that he was the sub in this situation. "How many people are in here?" he asked once they were inside. His hand was on Eli's elbow for guidance (guide dog or not, Lacey wouldn't have been very welcome here) while Michelle kept a hold of the leash. He wasn't worried about getting lost, but rather simply gauging the crowd.
