[He adds a selfie to this just to show that he looks fine, he's smiling and waving at him. However, his hair is noticeably disheveled, his shirt and tie are missing, and all he's wearing above the waist are his mask and collar. No bruises or bite marks yet though.]

Having a good time, don't worry too much!

[collateraldamaging]

I won't, as long as you keep on schedule.

Pictures really aren't necessary.

[adultflash]

What, you don't like the mask? I think it's pretty.

[collateraldamaging]

You shouldn't have photographic evidence of an anonymous party, Barry.

[adultflash]

Being anonymous isn't required, if I wanted to do that I would have worn a full mask. Besides, I'm pretty obviously me anyway. And it's not like I'm showing you anyone else. But I won't send you more pictures if you don't want them.

[collateraldamaging]

Whatever, I don't care as long as you're checking in.

[adultflash]

You know I will.

[and the next time he does, but the time after that, well...he's a bit tied up.]

[ The six hour mark passes, and Kazu figures Barry could be occupied right at check in time. So he gives it another ten minutes. Then another. And another. Until it's been thirty-five minutes and certainly Barry can't still be too engaged, right? Either he forgot, which seems very unlike him, or something's wrong.

Feeling almost unreasonably stressed by this (his friend is a goddamn superhero, this babysitting is ridiculous and yet) Kazu curses under his breath and actually calls Barry.

Ring ring, zippy, pick the fuck up before he comes down there and gets himself killed for your scrawny ass. ]

[Barry has to use a safe word when he hears his device ringing, doing some mental cursing himself. He'd gotten his device out and everything in anticipation of this and then, well. Distractions.]

Sorry, Cass, can you just hold it up for me? Thanks.

[When his phone is answered for him, Barry tries to keep his voice steady, but he's not very good at it. Instead he sounds breathless and most definitely aroused.]

Kazu? Sorry, I'm a little...tied up. 'm good though.

[collateraldamaging]

[ Kazu has a scolding prepared for when Barry answers, to tell him that if he can't mind the time while he's occupied he should set an alarm... and he's braced for the breathlessness! Even if the arousal is awkward to hear, he figured Barry was engaged in certain activities and would pick up in a bit of a state.

It's fine, no one's around to see how he blushes at hearing his name in that time.

But he is flustered by it despite bracing, so at first doesn't exactly catch the meaning of what Barry's saying. ]

I can hear that. If you can't keep track of this while you're busy, you need to set a timer or something.

[adultflash]

[Barry takes a slow breath, trying to form coherent words here.]

Kazu. I appreciate the concern, I really really do, but I'm literally tied up. With a rope. Can I call you back in like 20 minutes? [there's a pause here] Or 30?

And also tell Sara I'm fine too please.
