Most societies have certain mores that are unspoken rules; humanity itself even has such conventions, grilled subconsciously into our minds for our own safety. Don't go out alone at night. Avoid getting wet when it's cold. Don't pick fights with those stronger than you...okay, some of us missed the boat on the last one, but the point still stands. Society's rules tend to be more variable, though they apply to most aspects of life - including sex. In fact, bending the rules on what's considered acceptable in romance and sexual encounters can lead to anything from ostracization to death, depending on the time and culture.
So, play it close to the chest if you're going to do a big, big, big t a b o o. Is it worth the risk?

D E V I A N C Y ( IN SUBURBIA ) - there are some things that should be sacred. the home should be one of those. should.

Oh well, experimentation is how he rolls.
"Man, the easiest solution is to find less shady places for your porn needs," he jokes. Yes, the backalley doctor talking about not going to shady places, hilarious. "Sounds complicated. Good thing you're all fixed." And now he's about to be even more fixed.
"Well, piercing's a little beneath my expertise, but that'd be something to see."
no subject
"Anyway, the piercing thing's only a thought right now. Gotta account for where it is and what it needs to heal, too. And to get my dick pierced with my libido... man, that'll be rough to endure."
But he does feel how steady Koller's hands are, and truth be told, he nearly shivers when he imagines those hands caressing him rather than just working on him. Instead, he lets out a slight huff of a breath in an attempt to release some of the tension in his body before it can pitch a tent in his pants.

"Alright, okay, sure, I get you. No matter how you slice it, modification's a big deal, whether it's new parts or getting holes in your old ones. I mean, for me it is not such a big thing, but I think we've established I'm fucking weird." And, clearly, proud of it.
"Just about done with this one here. You've been a very cooperative patient so far."
no subject
"It's entirely possible that I over-think stuff. Often."
With the exception of hooking up his brain to another's on the first
datemeeting."I think this is the first thing I've really done on a whim."

A couple more connections and he steps back, hands over his head. "Success! One easily accessible port for cable use. Congratulations, man, you are one step closer to godhood."
He grins, rubbing his screwdriver with a cloth. "How's it feel? Exciting? Some things need a lot of planning, but it's nice when you can just start shit because you feel like it."
no subject
He doesn't dare turn back on his pain sensors yet, as he's pretty sure he's in for a world of hurt until it all heals. Until then, they stay off.
"And now we can hook up without bringing something sharp into the mix." Turning to Koller, he gives him a cheeky grin. Of course, he knows this means that he can hook up to whatever he wants on a whim now, but taking a more playful, flirty approach won out.
His gaze softens, and he tilts his head slightly, wondering how much the parts and labor cost for it. He's sincerely hoping that Koller won't just do it for free. Even if he pays for it with take-out.
no subject
So far, though, looks like another great success.
"Yeah, cutting stuff out is more my idea of work, not foreplay," he jokes. "Kinda like how 'playing doctor' is super super bland, y'know? I'm a doctor, this is normal shit for me."
But, worry not, he'll certainly be sending a bill. He's got reasonable rates.
"And now, while I've got you here, the arm."
no subject
"I'll have to check a little more in-depth once I get the courage to turn the pain sensors back on, truth be told, but so far, so good. I'll test things out more before I get up." He smiles wryly, glancing up at him and then wriggling his mechanical fingers and wrist. There's that hitch again, where the wrist doesn't want to move quite right.
"Although I can understand why you feel that way - about the 'playing doctor' thing." Never mind that, to him, 'playing doctor' is pretty sexy, if how he reacted to just being worked on along his neck had anything to do with it. Aside from a slightly more-than-cursory interest from time to time.
Minus the cutting-him-open part. But he can understand Koller's thinking.
"What you consider not bland, then? Barring mind-to-mind connections."
no subject
"Oh, you know. Not doing the boring shit." He shrugs. "I dunno, man, people just try for this really fakey-fakey shit sometimes and it's a little on the 'oh not again' side. Like, I'm into augs, man, y'know? But they never want to do that, it's just 'oh look at meeee, Mister Doctor.'" A shrug.
"I'm into a lot of shit, man, trust me, and I love my job, it's just I don't wanna make this shit into the most boring parts of work. Now, installing augs so we can fuck better? That, I can get behind," he jokes.
no subject
"So it's... the vanilla 'oh doctor, please check me out?' thing?" he asks, his brow furrowing as he struggles to figure out -- okay, he can understand why people might do that. Koller's sexy, and he has a sexy, bloodstained chair. Of course.
"Or am I completely missing the mark?"
no subject
Sounds good enough, alright. He grabs a few tools, sits down on his rolling chair, and gets to work again.
"Could've probably put it better, but, eh."
