Not too soon, I was sixteen. But that wasn't the only time, so I guess I count.
[ He knows what's out there. Tim looked him up after they met at the party - he'd been too busy with school and activism to keep up with every last sports scandal. He'd observed the moment of silence for Kenny at his favorite gay club when the news broke, and hadn't thought about it much afterwards until meeting Hawk in the flesh.
Reading about what came after was...humanizing. Something to turn Hawk from icon to human being. Tim's got worse floating around the internet. Maybe it's not sexy, but if he thinks heβs ready to get back out there, who's he to argue? ]
An invitation already? You're bold. I like that.

What do you mean? You don't read the news? There's always something. People want us dead, resources are being hoarded, they're killing the planet. Someone has to fight back. I'd do it even without a safety net, if I had to.
It's the glasses that get you going? Not the short shorts I caught you peeking at near the lake yesterday?
Course I do. It's part of the reason I've been outspoken my whole career and why I've got a pretty particular niche of philanthropy I try to focus on off the court. People will listen, and they'll tell you they care, but getting real action out of 'em can be a lost cause. But that doesn't mean we stop trying. I understand you.
What, can't it be both? The shorts were a real compelling part of it, I'll give you that. Chest too.
No, it's good work. I just think you're in a unique position to draw more attention. Nobody pays attention to the donations, as generous as they might be.

Fortune's supposed to favor us. But I'd take pretty brown eyes, glasses, and a floppy head of dark hair, if we're being honest.

You sure you contain yourself until Friday?

I think I can manage. I'm irresistible, if you read the papers.

What's your cause of choice, then? I think we can work something out.
I don't need the papers to tell me that.

Well, it'd be an honor to end up at the top of something that wasn't just talking about my abs.
Something to do with our rights, for starters. Equality across the board.
Yeah? Think you can last until Friday, then?

Is it cheating if I ask you to jerk off for me?
