    Man has developed far beyond his humble beginning as a simple farmer or hunter gatherer. We have innovated, globalized and expanded our knowledge in many different areas in science and technology and with these expansions have changed our societies and world forever; most of them in a positive light.

    And, oh. It was pure bliss when Leorio finally, finally wrapped his hand around Kurapika’s dick, stroking him from base to tip, so slow. His touch was electrifying, like nothing Kurapika ever experienced before. A cry burst from his lips, high and shivery — and on some level it scared him, this physicality, but mostly he just wanted more. More. As if he could sense his desperation, Leorio leaned down and lapped up the translucent bead of precum leaking from him, wasting no time, apparently done with

    “After the way I conducted myself? I wouldn’t blame you at all,” Kurapika said, his smile broadening into a brief grin. Then it faded, replaced with a expression of soft regret. “Actually, I...I figured, after all that, maybe I would try to...I don’t know. Make myself more available, be a better friend. That’s why I decided to come to Gon’s birthday birthday tonight.” “We were all surprised to see you,” Leorio admitted, glancing up at him. “I thought I was dreaming.” “I could tell,” Kurapika arched
