[He doesn't even point out that the sheets'll get all salty, since they're probably going to need changing anyway. He rests his arms on Arty's shoulders]
Oysters-- [More kissing.] --form pearls when a grain of sand gets inside of them and causes irritation. [And yes, he kisses Rikku again after that image.]
[Artemis gives a short laugh.] You smuggled sex toys into Spain? And here I thought you were a good boy. [He grins and taps Rikku's nose with a finger before getting up to get the bag.]
I'm not talking about airport security, I'm talking about me. You could have said something, I would have brought mine too. [He walks back to the bed with the bag and starts going through it.]
I thought we would somber in the moonlight together, and have dinner on that patio, and kiss each other goodnight. And here you are begging me to put a vibrator up you. [He slides onto the bed, between Rikku's legs.] I suppose I have to satisfy your dirty desires though.
I don't know. [He frowns slightly, looking shy or hesitant to speak.] We are on vacation in one of the most romantic places in the world. I thought we might do something out of the ordinary, maybe...
We will, Arty. I promise. Though, again, let's be real, we can't just kiss each other goodnight. There's always flirting and teasing and me being a cuddlebug. We're not simple like that.
Oh, no I wasn't thinking about doing something out of a 1950s American sitcom. [He frowns and sits up--because obviously they have to talk about this even though Rikku is naked and Artemis is holding a bag of sex toys.] I expected the cuddling but, well... There's quite a bit of performance-anxiety in relation to vacations, especially when it's your vacation home. I'm at peak stress-levels right now. I have to have some break from-- [He rattles the sextoy bag.] --or I'll implode.
I don't want to implode. [It's a slightly lame statement, but it's true.] I want us to go out and have adventures and see things. Do things that we'll remember for the rest of our lives. Yes I'll always want to remember everything about this moment, our first time in Spain. [He runs a hand lovingly over Rikku's thigh.] But I love watching you discover the world, too, and everything new in it.
[And Artemis is a little surprised that he's gotten this response. He thought what he was talking about was all chaste-no-fun talk about ~relationships~ and ~growing together. Things that no college student thought about if the sex was good and they could help it.]
[He loves Rikku too, of course. The past few months had demonstrated to Artemis just how they fit together so easily. Even when Artemis was mad or pissed off or hurt and lashing out, Rikku had known exactly what had been happening. Rikku was a little bundle of emotions and happiness, and Artemis had no idea what to do with a bundle of emotions and couldn't figure out that happiness could just happen. Rikku knew in ways that no one else cared to untangle, and Artemis didn't feel threatened by this at all. It had been his goofy roommate who drank out of the carton and walked around shirtless, and then it was his goofy boyfriend who drank otu of the carton and walked around shirtless. Neither one scared him, and so Rikku saw more than Artemis had shown anyone at school. Rikku was incredible, a sun to Artemis' moon in all seasons and weathers.]
I love you too. [Artemis whispers back, letting the majority of the kiss stay clean... before he lets his hand wander back to Rikku's hip.]
[Rikku's not as complex as Artemis. He was attracted to Artemis, he became friends with Artemis, he started dating Artemis, and he fell in love with Artemis. That's all there was to it. He didn't worry about the emotions involved, unless Artemis brought them up, or the complications. He knew he loved Artemis and that was that.
He smiles into the kiss when Artemis's hands start wandering, wrapping his arms around the older man's neck]

[So cute]
I promise, it's not all sex all the time. I don't want an imploded boyfriend.
