"Like Harrison and Rep. Every time, man." Al grimaced.

"You're going to have to take that up with them," Jordan replied, and managed not to smirk. "I only have control over that when I'm involved with it."

"Naw, I'd rather not. I think Harrison'd punch me in the nose," Al nodded.

"He might," Jordan agreed. "He's pretty straightforward about stuff like that."

"It was those two anyway," Al decided to point out. "They don't refrain from anything ever so of course I'm going to get squicked."

"Like I said, if you want them to stop that you're going to have to ask them," Jordan said. Sympathy for Al's discomfort over public makeouts of any gender: mild. Sympathy for Al's discomfort over gay kissing: almost nonexistent and not sufficient to encourage intervention on his behalf.

"That was me vagggggggguely asking them. But it made you mad apparently, they stopped but then you got mad," Al pouuuted at Jordan. Apparently nowhere near as aggressive or defensive as he was when he thought he was being put under a microscope.

"No, that was you attempting a passive-aggressive guilt trip," Jordan pointed out. "I don't have a problem with straightforward, honest, reasonable requests. I do have a problem with sidelong attempts to avoid confrontation."
Like you don't avoid confrontation.
Oh, shut up. I'm working on it.

"It's my way of coping with it. It might not be your way, but it's mine. It doesn't hurt anyone and I'll talk to Rep about it to see if it makes him hate me, okay? If he's fine with it, will you please not get on me?"

Jordan angled an eyebrow at Al. "It made him snarly immediately. Does that sound like fine with it?"

"He wasn't snarly, Harrison was. But Harrison is always snarly towards me, so far anyway."

Jordan shook his head. "Go ahead, talk to him, but if he keeps coming away from talking to you grumpy, you and I are going to talk again, somewhat less politely. I'd also advise you to avoid pissing Harrison off too much." He left the and me part unspoken; he'd already made that point.
