Akira watches Ryo back with more soft intensity than he means to do. He is just comfortable, okay! He wishes he could stretch the wings out, but they’d sit weirdly around the tub.]
[ his gaze shifts to jd, like he's confirming this, before returning to akira.
he's not sure if akira is asking if he wants to join him, or if he wants akira to vacate the tub. the answer to both of those would still be that he isn't sure. ]
[ the last time they did this was a simpler time (it was funny because akira spent it wondering if he should murder ryo it was the funniest introspection in the world).
but the clarification is what he wanted. there's a slight pause, like he's giving akira a chance to back out, before he strips out of his clothes. ryo doesn't bother to pick anything up from where it drops, and will just go to take a quick shower.
when he steps out of it, there's another slight pause before he goes to enter the tub in the opposite end that akira's at. he will be careful to keep out of jd's way. he tucks his knees to himself. ]
Well. He makes an ATTEMPT to behave himself. But sadly, he is… still a teenager in a way, and he is definitely still partially a demon.
So he looks at Ryo’s body out of the corner of his eyes when Ryo takes the clothes off to shower. This, in hindsight, maybe wasn’t a great idea. He has already drawn his knees up by the time Ryo finishes and walks out to join him.
He had been too busy ogling Ryo like a horny idiot, so his eyes snap all the way away to the other side as Ryo gets in. Guilty.
It takes him a moment to be able to skirt his eyes back to Ryo’s face. They
unfortunately drop down very quickly, then up again. Who knows what he was looking at.]
[The way that—no matter what Ryo meant or what Ryo’s intentions were—his legs so immediately fall completely open to make room for Ryo.
Just the room happens to be between his calves and knees and thighs.
HE IS SO DAMN PREDICTABLE STILL!!! “I can control them my emotions better now” his ass. There is not a single ounce if control here, only Akira swallowing quietly.]
well, ryo will just turn so that he can squeeze into the spot, his back facing akira. he leans back so that he can rest against him and he closes his eyes. ]
That's better. Tell me if it gets uncomfortable.
[ his intentions are simple-- to be as close to akira as he is allowed to be. ]
[Every place their skin touches, he lights up with electricity. For some reason, this makes him look so shocked. He really thought he could get out of being close to Ryo in a tub, naked, without hastily resurfacing feelings. Fool?
His legs stretch out on either side of Ryo’s, and he wraps both arms around Ryo from behind. Gently, he tucks most of his hot face into the hair on the side of Ryo’s neck as his heart drums away against Ryo’s back.
…His whole body starts getting really warm, and in turn, the water begins to heat up some again.]
[Don't just look down and then close your eyes again, HELLO. Stop judging him while everything is currently going so wrong for him.
He is quiet for a long moment, ]
Sitting in the bath with me...?
[He is trying to joke just a little bit to get over the fact they're cuddling in the bath together without clothes on. He nuzzles his face down into Ryo's neck.]
[AAAAAAAA, be nice to HIM. He's going through it. Ryo is really so mean to him all the time under the guise of protecting him obsessively for life.
He curls his fingers through Ryo's. The thumb brushes gently over Ryo's thumb.] You can sit with me when you... [Suddenly, his breath catches, and he holds it.
Wow, he can really feel his heart going like this. NO.]
It's-- You're just--hot. I mean--warm! You're warm, and the water is warm, so...
[help him
His body and the water gets even hotter slightly.]
he has to stop himself from laughing, this is so funny. at the very least, it is nice to have the confirmation that akira is at least still physically attracted to him. it doesn't mean too much, because akira is just horny in general, but still. it's something.
ryo hums thoughtfully. ]
You know you can use me for whatever you want.
[ he doesn't really expect akira to accept the offer, since it's why he mentioned the red lights district in the first place. but unfortunately ryo is completely fine with just being something for sexual release especially since he is not really sure when was even the last time akira did. anything. unless he was fucking old men but ryo is not going to ask that.
at that point it wouldn't even be a jealousy thing he would just probably start laughing and then accidentally drown ]
[They are both fools, wow. HE ISN'T HAVING SEX WITH OLD MEN.
Ryo can feel his arms and chest start, and the unnatural heat to his body very suddenly cools a little, dying away.] Ryo. [His voice is quiet and gentle, but serious.
When he lifts his head, his arms loosen but don't pull away. He leans to try to see more of Ryo's face from the side.]
Don't say that... I don't want to use you. It wouldn't be... using. You're not... You're not just an object. You're important.
[ there's a pause, and he will shift, moving so that he's more on akira's lap than between his legs. mostly so he can turn more comfortably so he can face him more properly. ]
I don't mind.
[ but akira does, he realizes.
he leans in again, pressing his face against the crook of akira's neck. ]
[Aaaaaaaaaa. His body wants to freeze as Ryo shifts (because it feels too good), but he has to move his legs and torso to accommodate the new position. Once Ryo settles, he returns his arms around Ryo's shoulders and front.
He lifts his chin to give Ryo more room, even if the face in his neck makes his heart start up again.]
You're important to me.
[A quiet emphasis to prove his earlier point. But he understands what Ryo is trying to say. Gently, he nuzzles Ryo's head with his jaw, and he curls Ryo more into himself.]
[ it's said with confidence, and he kisses akira's neck, like to really show it, although it's a softer kiss compared to when he has previously bitten the hell out of akira.
but he's more than fine with it, since for ryo, this is the closest he'll ever get. why would he say no to something like that? ]
But whatever you want. Whatever form you want-- if you'd like for me to be a woman, or my real one, or this.
[The kiss makes tingling warmth zip out through his body from the middle of his chest; the electricity of it melts into something smooth and warm.
But his face has become mostly red. He sinks down the edge of the tub and slowly into the water. He mumbles shyly,] ...I like all of them, [before his face slips beneath the surface.
Maybe he will just drown and be spared from showing how absolutely horny he is in front of the one person who already knows.]
[ he just fuckin. watches akira go under the water. goodbye forever, he guesses
ryo looks over. jd is outside of the door, napping. he seems to have given up on getting their attention as they have been being obnoxiously horny instead of giving him pats. he looks back to where akira is.
he dunks his head into the water to nuzzle against akira's neck again. ]
[Sometimes, you are bisexual. Pansexual? You really like your genderfluid soulmate.
A burst of bubbles pops out of his mouth in surprise when Ryo ducks into the water to nuzzle him. HE DIDN'T THINK RYO WOULD COME AFTER HIM. He's gonna run out of air. He sits suddenly up out of the water, bringing Ryo up with him in his arms. Okay, well, he can't drown now because Ryo was there with him, and he doesn't want Ryo to also drown. (Ryo would probably not drown at all.)
He blinks the water away from his eyes, peering at Ryo with his fluffy hair now plastered against his head and face. He just stares for the longest few seconds.
[ the funniest thing is that despite all of the flirting and ryo just flat out propositioning akira, he is still somehow surprised by the kiss. there is the tiniest gasp that is swallowed by his mouth. help.
well. sort of help. there's just a few seconds of him not doing anything as he makes an attempt to mentally process this before he kisses back, wrapping his arms around akira's shoulders.
ryo really was just going to go downstairs to the couch ]
[Clearly, Akira isn't the only stupid ho in this bathtub.
He is mostly timidly kissing Ryo, unsure and hesitate; he is trying to get all of it out of the way, but he still understands Ryo may be mad at him. Up until... Ryo decides to kiss him back, then he gets more confident in what he's trying to do. The plus side? Akira has become a way better kisser than he was years ago. Experience, baby.
His arms turn Ryo a little more to him, and he reaches up to push his fingers up the side of Ryo's neck, cradling Ryo's face. There's some hunger behind the kiss, and he kisses Ryo for a while. When he stops, he doesn't really move his head away at all.]
ryo very slowly opens his eyes, almost like he is double checking that akira is indeed there. he closes his eyes again, letting out a quiet sigh of content.
sometimes you wait a very long time to kiss a certain person that you weren't even sure you'd ever see again. ]

[The cat merowls at Ryo from the perch.
Akira watches Ryo back with more soft intensity than he means to do. He is just comfortable, okay! He wishes he could stretch the wings out, but they’d sit weirdly around the tub.]
Did you want to get in…?
no subject
he's not sure if akira is asking if he wants to join him, or if he wants akira to vacate the tub. the answer to both of those would still be that he isn't sure. ]
I was going downstairs. [ ... ] Sure.
[ he will just make akira clarify the question ]
no subject
[He doesn’t move from where he is; he doesn’t even sit up at all. Not even a shift.]
Come on then.
[He still does not move.
So it looks like the clarification is that Ryo is going to have to join him in it.]

Yeah.
[WHY DOES HIS VOICE CROAK.]
no subject
but ryo doesn't respond, instead just watching akira for a moment. he glances at the open door then back to akira.
he considers.
and then he shifts, moving forward in the water until he's closer to akira. he places a hand on one of akira's knees and taps it. ]
I'm going to sit here. Make room.

He's not entirely sure what's amusing, maybe it's just the way he acted so boldly on top of what he did, on top of feeling happy too.]
Sorry, but I wanted to.
