Part of dating the captain of your senshi faction meant getting off your lazy a** and branching out once in a while. It was far from Grayson's natural inclination, especially given how busy he was in his civilian life, but he figured he needed to make the effort. Not only was Elke counting on him, but the rest of the team, or at least what was left of it, needed every active member they could get. For her part, Virgo seemed to be spending a lot more time with Gemini Beta than him, and that was fine; he was working through some things that he wasn't quite prepared to talk to her about, yet. That aside, even though he couldn't really seem to get in touch with the rest of his team, Boreas generally seemed to be pretty available, and he wanted to get to know him better.
As far as past-life memories went, his own of the Hands were very hazy and unclear. No better excuse to make new memories, right?
The heels of his boots clicked against the pavement as he walked, hands balanced lightly against his hips for lack of pockets. It had been a pretty slow night, so that was a good time to make conversation, right?
"So how have you been?" That was a lame conversation starter if he'd ever heard one, and he kind of winced. "Or, you know, any other topic that doesn't sound so... boring."
He just didn't know much about Boreas yet. Where did you start?

Grayson was somewhat of a mystery to Noel and Leo an even bigger mystery to Boreas. It seemed odd to only know someone on a professional level when some of the most defining moments of your life are intricately tied to that person. Both had worked to protect Chronos up until this point, yet never really conversed one on one. However, what was truly shocking was the fact that Leo was hot and Boreas had yet to at least try making a move. Shame and eternal damnation. Well, maybe not eternal damnation since Boreas was going to try and rectify that fact immediately. The senshi of winter walked casually beside Leo while trying to keep an eye on their surroundings. Blue eyes darted about to check to nearby buildings and rooftops. He had developed a certain sense for checking rooftops as experience had taught him these were places with many disadvantages. However, his scouting was interrupted by his companion's words.
"I've been feeling great! I'm talking to this really hot guy with a great body, I mean great, like could knock a wall down or something. He seems to be pushing for something serious, but yeah, he's way too stupid for something serious. Not to say I like brainiacs, but still, this boy probably couldn't go back and pass the third grade. However, he still has a great body! So, how about you? From what I can see, you have a great body. That's a quality I like to see in a man."
Not one to meet a stranger, Boreas just let the words slip right out without any real thought. Boreas gave Leo a playful grin and a wink. He wasn't full on hitting on him, but not completely joking either. He liked to think that meant he was keeping his options open, regardless of the results. After all, he wasn't one to pass up some good old fashioned man action.
"Oh and speaking of using your great body, how about we figure out what we are going to do with both of our great bodies. Should we sweep this area once more or head closer to the heart of the city for some action?"

It was amazing how easily conversation flowed with the barest of prompts from him. This was a rhythm Grayson was used to; he said the minimum, and then he listened while someone else flavored the conversation and directed it. It wasn't that he was incapable of carrying a conversation, just that he generally found what other people had to say more interesting than the thoughts that rattled around in his own head, and that besides, people liked to be listened to. It made them feel valued and appreciated, a couple of things he liked to think he was pretty good at.
(It could be argued that they were the only things he was good at, but he was trying to keep that tiny little voice from interrupting his day-to-day thoughts. He wasn't doing so well.)
He smiled a little, half of his mouth lifting with it, and shook his head. He liked the fact that Boreas was comfortable enough and open enough with himself that he could discuss his romantic partners without feeling like he would be judged. It was a nice change from what he was used to from others, and he could appreciate the fact that they had open, easy communication between them. It made being teammates much easier.
"That's good to hear." There was definite amusement in his tone, and though he heard the other man's compliments on his own appearance, he chose not to comment on them. They were light-hearted quips, certainly not to be taken seriously, and that was how Grayson generally responded to such things.
Besides, everyone knew he and Elke were dating. So it had to be harmless.
He tipped his head back, pursing his lips as he scanned the upper reaches of the buildings around them. "We should probably head toward the center of the city. Or, at least, more populated areas."
So saying, he turned, reaching out to wave Boreas after him. "It's hard finding someone who's looking for the same thing you are in a relationship sometimes. I'm sure you'll get it settled, though."
Most people did.

It was odd to actually have another man listen to him rant on about his sexual escapades. Most of the time, his partners or tricks to be more accurate, just interrupted him with their babble about life, love, or whatever. Not that Boreas was overly upset or judgmental about this. On the contrary, as he often found his taste in men led him to those whose worth was only skin deep. Not bad for one night, but certainly irritating the next morning. However, the senshi of winter did have to remind himself that his companion didn't play for his team, so that made the conversation dynamic a little different to say the least. Here, they could talk without worries of whose place they would end up at.
"Good idea, youma tend to favor groups and large gatherings over one on one encounters. At least from what I've seen anyway. We can either walk or take the subway, up to you. I'm cool with whatever."
Following the motion of his patrol buddy, Boreas made his way toward the downtown area. Their journey so far hadn't been very fruitful with the only real problem being the lack of action.
"True, sometimes I think that I want a really hot guy who is into having an open relationship and then other times I think that I want romance. You know, the good stuff that keeps you coming back for more. Like candle wax and stuff. Conflicted, man. I'm just torn. How about you? Things between you and that oh so lovable Virgo okay?"
He gave Leo a playful nudge and a wink. Not that Boreas was after intimate details or anything. In all honestly, he just wanted to see if he could make the boy blush. That was one of his many guilty pleasures.
