Baxter:Well, you both are always welcome on my island any time you need to soak up some sun. So you have plans to build a house. What’s next? Kids, maybe?

Gray:I don’t think so. Some of my brothers want kids, but me and Mason are happy with just the two of us. I’m the best uncle though. I love snuggling Sorin and giving him kisses. He’s so cute. When he’s old enough, I’ll hype him up on sugar, then send him home with his dads.

Baxter:Next question. Where is your favorite place to be?

Gray:Cuddled against Mason’s side.

Baxter:Ideal vacation spot?

Gray:Any place Mason can be shirtless. I love nuzzling his abs.

Baxter:So… the beach? [makes note]

Gray:Are we done now? I’m bored.

Baxter:How can you be bored in my presence? Rude.

Gray:Your face is rude. [yawns] Don’t forget our deal, ’kay? You owe me Dino-Nick.

Baxter:Yeah, yeah, I won’t forget.

Gray:[stands up and waddles from the room, wild blond hair bouncing]

Interview Notes:Gray does what he wants when he wants to do it. I see why he gets away with a lot. His cute factor is extraordinary. I feel like I got scammed on this interview. He barely answered anything, yet I owe him. He’s a clever little monster.

Bellamy:

Lust Tells All

Baxter:Afternoon, sexy.

Bellamy:[pauses before taking a seat] Keep talking like that and I’m leaving.

Baxter:Oh, stop. You know it’s harmless flirting.

Bellamy:Yeah. Coming from a dude I boned more than once. Not sure my mate would consider it harmless flirting.

Baxter:Get that stick out of your ass, Lust. But the last thing I want is your demon husband throwing fireballs at my pretty face, so let’s move on.

Bellamy:Good idea.

Baxter:I have those sometimes. [shuffles notes and clears throat] So. It’s been over a year since the war ended. How have you and Phoenix spent your time?

Bellamy:We’ve been traveling, mostly. Seeing the world. Just living life.

Baxter:Interesting. Am I correct in saying the two of you have recently bought a house in Echo Bay?

Bellamy:Yes. Konnar helped us find it. We moved in last week.

Baxter:How romantic. What’s your favorite position in bed? [sees his annoyed expression] That’s a legit question submitted by a reader. I had nothing to do with it.

Bellamy:I don’t have a favorite. As long as my husband gets off, I’m happy. That’s the only answer you’re getting.

Baxter:Kind of out of character for Lust not to jump at the opportunity to talk about sex.

Bellamy:Oh, I love sex. I love talking about it too. But not with you.

Baxter:When we fucked, you liked shoving my face in the pillow and railing me from behind. I’ll jot that down for your answer. Oh wow. You look like you want to kill me.
