Like you expect

Stephen's eyes widened in a mix of shock and excitement as he took a step closer to Mark, his voice barely above a whisper. "Dude, you're telling me you've got Katie frozen in time, and you've...you've been with her?" Mark nodded, a sheepish grin spreading across his face. Stephen's gaze darted around the park, ensuring no one was listening in on their conversation. He leaned in closer, his eyes gleaming with curiosity. "What's she like? I mean, is she...good?"

Mark chuckled, a low, throaty sound, and shook his head. "You're such a pervert, Stephen."

Stephen's eyes widened in excitement. "Can I see her? Please, man. I've always had a thing for Katie." Mark hesitated for a moment, considering the implications of such a request. He knew that if he let Stephen see Katie, he would be crossing a boundary that he had set for himself. But the thought of showing off his newfound powers, and the potential for some good-natured bragging, was too tempting to resist.

"Alright, fine," Mark said, a sly smile spreading across his face. "But you have to promise not to tell anyone. And you can't touch her. She's... delicate."

Stephen pouted, his lower lip jutting out in disappointment, but he quickly nodded in agreement. "I promise, I promise. I won't touch her. But can I at least... take a picture?"

Mark raised an eyebrow, considering the request. "No, no pictures either. I don't want any evidence of this getting out." Stephen sighed, but his eyes still shone with excitement as he nodded again.

Mark turned and began walking towards his house, Stephen falling into step beside him. As they walked, Stephen couldn't help but pepper Mark with questions. "What's she like, frozen in time? Is she just standing there, or...?"

Mark chuckled and shook his head. “At least someone took this well.”
