I.
Colin watched the arc of Bradley’s arm swinging Arthur’s sword. Bradley could move so gracefully even weighed down by chainmail, armor, and oppressive heat. It was the hottest on record, they said; the humidity was not helping. It was Bradley’s fourth full take and Colin had watched every one of them. (Merlin was not in the scene, nor was he in another other scene being filmed nearby; Colin wasn’t needed until after nightfall.)

Colin watched as Bradley bent over to catch his breath, supporting himself on the sword. His skin glistened in the sunlight. Colin’s hands ached to touch him.


II.
Being in costume (with chainmail) on the hottest day on record (plus humidity) in between takes of a battle scene, Bradley barely registered Colin’s weight pressing down on him. Sweat pouring down him like a second suit of armor (insulating and heavy), Bradley barely realized the moisture at his neck as Colin’s saliva. He moaned a bit, hand coming into contact with Colin’s upper arm, and opened his eyes to the harsh brightness of the afternoon. “Too hot,” he mumbled, wanting nothing but the ‘ok’ from the director.

“Just let me touch you,” Colin said – and how could Bradley argue?
