AU #666: A TINGE OF DOUBT CROSSES MY MIND

[halfcocked]

[sprawled on Hakuren's bed with his laptop, dicking around on Google again; without preamble, begins to read in an attempt at a silky voice:]


I dream'd this mortal part of mine
Was Metamorphoz'd to a Vine;
Which crawling one and every way
Enthralled my dainty Lucia.
Me thought, her long small legs & thighs
I with my Tendrils did surprize;
Her Belly, Buttocks, and her Waste
By my soft Nerv'lits were--


--her what? This one sucks! Lemme find a better one. Her waste!?

[arches into it, flopping down onto his stomach beside Hakuren and leaning a bit]

So that's part of it! I like you for lots of reasons, okay? Talking to you, I don't feel . . . dumb, or like you wish I'd die, or like you're ignoring me!

[turns onto his side, still petting]

... There's never been anyone I've wished death to. As for the rest of it -- I don't think you're stupid. When you actually try and apply yourself, you can be rather clever.

[remains on his stomach, but tilts his head over to look at Hakuren, resting it on his arms]

. . . Yeah? Yeah~ I am, huh? ♪

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

Sometimes, when you try to be.

[halfcocked.livejournal.com]

I guess you're not so bad either! [rolls slightly and bumps up against Hakuren]

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

Oh, I know I'm clever, even when I don't try to be.

[tangles his fingers loosely in Devit's hair]

[halfcocked.livejournal.com]

Who says I have to try, huh, maybe I'm holding myself back for you . . .

[presses into it, mmmmm]

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

Mmm, I don't know -- I know you pretty well at this point ...

[kneading gently with his fingertips |D]

[halfcocked.livejournal.com]

Ha ha~ there's still a lot to find out, baby . . .

[makes a pleased sound in his throat, eyes fluttering shut]

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

[pets gently, leaning in closer]

I suppose there is. It's not a bad thing, I think -- I'm glad for it.

[halfcocked.livejournal.com]

[also leaning in, eyes still closed]

Yeah, I like finding out stuff about you, it's fun . . .

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

[--leans in and pecks, lightly]

You really think it's fun?

[halfcocked.livejournal.com]

[leans in some more, HINT HINT]

I don't bother with stuff that's no fun, Ribbons!

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

[you can be patient sometimes, can't you?]

What, never? Even if it's needed?

[halfcocked.livejournal.com]

[:(]

--Well, yeah, sometimes, I mean, it's not like I--you know what I meant!

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

... mmm. And you're here because you want to be, so ...

[halfcocked.livejournal.com]

[LEANING IN MORE, HINT HINT]

You're fun! You're fun! Is that what this is about . . .

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

[oh fine -- leaning in and brushing their lips together, lightly]

You did ask.

[halfcocked.livejournal.com]

[pressing in for a firmer kiss |D]

Well now you know~

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

[allowing, but still staying mostly chaste]

I suppose I do, don't I? It's still good to hear, now and then.

[halfcocked.livejournal.com]

[shifting in closer, resting a hand on Hakuren's hip]

And how about you, huh . . .

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

[relaxed, stretching a little into that]

What about me?

[halfcocked.livejournal.com]

[nosing a little at his neck and chin]

Are you having fun?

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

[tipping his head back, just a little]

I don't know if you'd call it fun, but ... I'm enjoying myself.

[halfcocked.livejournal.com]

[brushes his lips against Hakuren's neck]

That's the same as fun . . .
