[Psh. Only Teddy would consider dinner and a movie to be spoiling. Billy just grins, tugging him upright a bit, then murmurs something under his breath, too faint to be understood, and then the soft, warming energy of his magic is swirling around them, accompanied by the usual blue glow. There's a flash of light, and suddenly they're standing on Luceti's beach, the salty ocean breeze making Billy open his eyes and focus on Teddy. Worried that the air might have the same effect on his boyfriend, he lifts a hand to cover Teddy's eyes, stretching his free hand out towards the water as the tide washes in and out over the rocks and sand around them.]

Not yet.

[His voice is soft, yet still carried by the wind; there's one more flash of blue, spreading out from his hand and sweeping across the surface of the water in both directions as far as the eye can see. It's such an exhilarating rush of power, pushing the limits of something he's never done before, and he can't help but release a breathless laugh, sliding his hand down from Teddy's eyes and leaning in to rest his forehead against the other boy's, pressing their bodies together, just for a moment. That felt pretty amazing- like fresh air after being stuck inside all day, like an inhale of breath after holding it too long. Like the relief of an embrace after a worrisome absence.]

Mm... okay. Okay, you can open them now.

[His hands slide down to curl around Teddy's, stepping back to watch. When Teddy opens his eyes, he'll find the ocean changed- lit not only by the moon, but by tiny dots in the water, as if the shoreline itself now contains a million tiny stars. He gives Teddy's hand a little squeeze, bumping their shoulders together. He's got a whole scientific explanation memorized that he's ready to blather on about for five minutes straight, but right now, he just wants to enjoy the moment with the one he loves.]

...Happy birthday, T.
