Things had changed so gradually that Lawrence himself hadn't even noticed it, but before long he'd gone from what he'd thought of as using no persona at all to coping with his situation by simply modifying and reviving another one. He had stopped sneaking out at night to train on his own in disguise, altering his routine to a morning workout on the training field, dressed in plain workout clothes.
That was what he was doing today and he'd been jogging around the island before finally deciding that he would learn most optimally against someone else. The first person he could think of to help him out had been Melvin.
And so Melvin received a text that morning asking if he wanted to spar, and if he did to come to the training fields to do it.

Melvin returned the text stating he would be there in 10. After finishing up his morning routine and sending off a few emails, he headed down to the training field. Usually he sparred after work so he could then shower after, but the morning was brisk and made you want to fill your lungs to full capacity.
Arriving, he was surprised to see Lawr so eager to spar unless he instead wanted to talk about one of the many things that were happening. Either way, time with just them was one he would not pass up.
"Morning." He said as he got within range, smiling at Lawr's outfit. "You look fit."

Lawrence gave Melvin a wolfish little grin. "I'm going to take that in every sense of the word." Even back home in Manchester where it meant good looking. "Because I can. Thank you though, I realise the importance of keeping fit and healthy these days and training is a good way to do it."
He gave Melvin a little bow, summoning his claws as he did so. "Speaking of training though, shall we?" he asked. "It has been a while."

"If all the meanings are ones that mean you make it hard to respect the hands-off policy then yes."
He gave a curt bow and summoned Saliva."I suppose if this is the only way to be physical with you now then I welcome it. If I win, do I get a prize?"

"Of course you can claim a prize from me if you win. Nothing ridiculous of course."
He started walking away to get himself distance before firing.

The shot hit Lawr's shield rather hard and he inhaled in a hiss. "You can have whatever prize you are fit enough to take." he said with a sweet sort of smile. "And me? Ridiculous? Never."
Butch in his head was barking with giddy excitement as he sprinted after the other man, leaping further than seemed sensibly possible to sink his talons into Melvin.
"I look forward to my prize though." he said.

The wind was knocked out of him when he was tackled to the ground and it was a relief Lawr wasn't a body builder. The confidence of the other made him grin. He was always so sure of himself of getting everything. He wanted to prove him wrong. What he'd get was what he allowed.
"So cocky!" Legs lifted to kick him off before he moved to get up, turning to fire.
"What makes you think you'll win? You're so soft now."

Lawrence chuckled at being called cocky. "You'd know." he said, gathering himself up off the ground.
"There is nothing soft about me." he said, reeling from the shot to his shield but not stopping as he doggedly followed Melvin. "I'll win because I want to."

"Would I? It's been so long that it's just a distant memory. I come to think if it was all just a vivid dream these days." He joked in a dramatic way, not nearly as well practiced as Lawr.
"Oh there is. Your soft little spot for handling Rodney." He moved as he tried to get closer, tauntingly close for someone with a ranged weapon.
"Not everything. You don't have life the way you want, do you?"
He fired close, and Saliva brimmed with energy.

Lawrence snorted. "Surely it was a strong enough memory to last a few months. Give me at least that."
He hissed with pain as Saliva's hit rattled him in the shoulder, thrown off balance and staggering a little.
"No. I don't. Not yet. But this is certainly a fun little diversion."
This time he only managed to clip Melvin with the edge of a long blade.

"Memory like the taste of something sweet when everything else is bitter."
He leaned into the claws, and reached out to touch his hip.
The gun went down without support but he pulled the trigger, the shot hitting him below.
"It could be more fun."
The other hand tried to carress his side.

Lawrence inhaled deeply at the contact, what had been casual banter and flirting becoming something a lot sharper and more real all of a sudden. It was as much to do with the violence as anything else. There was an automatic sort of response to the closeness, to the hand at his hip, and that was to return the gesture.
"Maybe it would be." he exhaled, leaning in very close to huskily lower his voice. "Maybe I could refresh your memory."
Butch was charged but he let him barkbarkbark at the end of his chain, dragging a single claw along Melvin's spine.

His back arched, moving into the other. The hand as his back moved under his shirt, somethibg different and showing change that he wanted to rip it off. Instead, he raked his own nails. The other hand moved the barrel of the gun moved between Lawr's legs but only the side of his hand touched him.
"Remind me of the taste of you." He went to speak to his neck before he kissed it. "I've been hungry."

Lawrence inclined his head away from Melvin, exposing more of his throat as he drew in ragged, suddenly heavy breaths. This wasn't what he'd been expecting from a spar, he'd come out here to spar, to keep fit to be the person he was, was, WAS, who was he even right now?
He wrapped the long claws about Melvin, pressing them close but not enough to harm his shield, holding him tightly. "You don't know hunger." he said, very very quietly.

"No. You fed me for years. Even when the taste changed. Too sweet. Too bitter. Too sharp that my stomach turned and I could taste blood. But I was fed. Now you want to starve me. I want to eat again." He turned into the neck, careless as he bite one by one, feeling flesh and the crackle of a shield, and went to move his lips against hs ear.
"Do you plan to make me hunger for eternity? Does Butch not tell you what stavation can do?"
He dismissed Saliva as he reached to holds him, turning his head in Lawr's line of sight to look pointly at the claws. "Do it. Tighter."
And he bite into Lawr's ear.
