[ Smelling like an old lady's soap shop wouldn't be the worst blow to his all-American jock image. His personality already does that. Underneath the narcissistic, reckless douchebaggery is unapologetic cuddliness and a yearning for intimacy, both physical and emotional. That much is apparent as he runs his hands along the dips and sharp points of Luke's body. Sensual, not sexual, just the simple happiness of contact. He traces over Luke's fluttering heart down his ribs and back up along highways of blue veins and twitching muscles. As much as he likes a shag in the shower, these are the little moments he lives for. A small pocket of time where their bodies are still thrumming with endorphins and he can just have Luke with him while they ramble on about the wonderfulness of a mundane life together. ]
You would so fry, but alright, I'll take ya down South! If ya want swamps I'll take ya really down South to the Everglades, that'll be enough swamp to last ya a lifetime. And if you still ain't sunburned by the end you can see the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley. No tour of my shores is complete without NYC so we'll definitely hit that up! Got myself an apartment there. I tell ya, wakin' up to the sounds and sights of the city is a whole 'nother experience. Different than London, even. [ He's getting dreamy just thinking about it. ]
And Las Vegas...
[ His face scrunches up in intense thought. Americans aren't the best with geography, even in their own country, and America isn't an exception. He's constantly growing and changing, sometimes so gradually that he realizes all at once like a new graduate looking at their freshman year pictures to see how much they've changed, so it's hard to keep track even when he's at home. Without his land (and because there aren't any maps of the US in this shower--like c'mon Luke, don't you want some hot pictures of your boyfriend to jerk off to in here?) it's all the harder to recall a city that hasn't even been created in his time yet. The Hoover Dam and resulting casino, mobsters, and population boom are a World War and a Dust Bowl away. Remarkably he manages to scrounge up a memory of an area that's just some dude's ranch. ]
Oh! The stop on the Old Spanish Trail with the good wine! Road there might be a lil' rough for ya, but I can take ya there!
[ Bless Wikipedia and its availability to help me bullshit history I don't know.
It is also here that I bemoan America's time period for not having Rainbow Row in Charleston because seriously what a cute city. ]
