Has anyone met a fae before?

Do you know why they're so fucking weird?

Comments

[faeshim]

Don't know. None's ever tried to claim me.

[privatechat]

Do fae ever try to claim each other?

[faeshim]

Don't know that either. None would want me.

[privatechat]

Why?

[faeshim]

Did something taboo. Loved a human. Loved more than one, in different ways. Killed the fae who would hurt them.

[privatechat]

I see.

[ lennon's quiet for a little while. ]

Do you want to cuddle?

[faeshim]

I do!

[privatechat]

Then come cuddle. Bring me hot chocolate.

[faeshim]

[he'll bring him his hot chocolate. but maybe he'll take a sip of it himself first. daeshim's even licking it from his top lip when he comes in, though from what's left in the cup it was obviously just a small sip.]

Here!

[privatechat]

[ He'll let it slide that the other took a drink of the hot chocolate. He had half expected him not to even bother bringing it so he accepts it with a pleased grin, taking a sip immediately and then reaching one hand out to pull Daeshim to join him where he's settled comfortably in bed.

He's still figuring out what to do here, what he's supposed to do with his life and well, he's struggling.

And cuddling Daeshim had seemed like a good choice in the moment. ]

I didn't think you'd bring me any.

[faeshim]

[he's careful when he hands it off, only one knee on the bed until lennon is settled and beckons him closer. even if his face is similar to jasper's, this human's body is different. he's still exactly how his fits against it.

but he likes that. he likes the way he has to adjust a time or two before they slot together.]

Why wouldn't I? Hot chocolate is an easy wish to grant.

[privatechat]

[ Lennon studies the other as he moves and then settles against him. It doesn't take too long to get comfortable and he sips some more of the hot chocolate. There's a soft hum for a moment. ]

I don't know. You do weird stuff.

[ He leans his head against the other's shoulder briefly. It's kind of nice...this.. cuddling without expectations. ]

What does it mean for you to say you'll keep me?

[faeshim]

It means... [daeshim's brows draw together, a slight frown on his lips as he tries to figure out how to explain it.] Means I won't toss you away. Means I'll keep you safe, keep you happy.

[it's an unfinished sentence. it might be much better for daeshim if he always explained it as he just did, but his language is also different.]

Means I like you, and I want you.

[privatechat]

[ Lennon lets the other take the time to figure it out. The little frown on his lips is cute and he's kind of tempted to lean in and kiss it but he doesn't want to distract him. He really wants to understand.

The answer really sounds like something out of a fairy tale. Ha. Lennon didn't believe in those, but then again he hadn't believed in fae or alternate universes either...and yet here he is cuddling a fae in some weird-ass other dimension. ]

You still don't even know me, how could you know all that, that you won't want to toss me away later or that I deserve to be kept safe and happy by you? What is it about me that you like and want?

[faeshim]

You've asked me this before.

[the hows and whys and what-ifs. the fae lifts his head a little to look down at him.]

Do people toss you away?

[privatechat]

[ Lennon stops short at the question. He turns his head a little as if he can hide the moment of pain that flashes his face. ]

Yeah. But it's fine. I got used to it and stopped expecting anything.

[faeshim]

[he can't hide it. not from someone who watches as closely as this one. daeshim reaches for his face and tries to make lennon look him in the eyes again.]

Remember what I'm told you. I'm not human. [and then, softer:] They do this. I don't.

[privatechat]

[ Lennon resists at first but then he looks up at him, at least his expression manages to be more guarded again and he's satisfied with that even though he knows the other's already seen enough to know better. ]

I don't know if I can just believe you.

[faeshim]

Would another hot chocolate prove it?

[daeshim laughs and lays his head back down again.]

You'll believe me someday. I'll wait.

[privatechat]

No.

[ But it makes Lennon smile. He relaxes a little and wonders about the other's confidence. He really doesn't get it. At all.

After a little bit he sets the cup of hot chocolate down and shifts, tilting his head so his lips can find Daeshim's. ]

[faeshim]

[the first kiss was a surprise, though not an unwelcome one. this time is less of a surprise, and daeshim kisses back, the pressure light at first but building as they go.

he really does kissing, slow and relaxed, catching whatever breaths he needs between them.]

You taste like chocolate.

[the fae whispers before laughing, and then kissing him again.]

[privatechat]

[ Lennon smiles briefly into the kiss when Daeshim responds. He relaxes and lets himself focus on the kiss, on the feeling of their lips moving together, fitting. The other tastes good, sweet almost and also maybe a little earthy. He doesn't know for sure.

Laughing with Daeshim is easy, natural. He likes that. He likes the way Daeshim laughs and then goes right back to kiss him. The smile hadn't completely left Lennon's lips. He parts his lips more, tongue teasing out against Daeshim's lip, playfully teasing there as one hand moves to rest on the other's thigh.]

[faeshim]

[daeshim has only ever been kissed by people who cared about him. maybe that's why he holds it in such high regard, something that riches couldn't buy from him and threats couldn't take. but that's the way he learned and so it's the way he kisses.

it hasn't been long since he's been here, taken from his forest and those teachers. but he's missed this, this feeling, sweet and warm like a fresh-baked tart. daeshim makes a sound before his lips part for more. maybe he's playing a dangerous game - he wants lennon to like him, wants it so much. but humans aren't something that he can ever fully understand either. maybe he ends up heartbroken in the end.

he laughs again, just from delight, and finds himself crawling half on top of the other.]

[privatechat]

[ It's been a long time for Lennon since he's been kissed by someone that cared about him. And maybe in other circumstances, he might be bothered by Daeshim's kisses but instead, he can't get enough of it.

Everything is dangerous. Lennon knows that and that's why he's so careless in letting himself get involved with this fae that he doesn't understand, that seemingly wants to own him. Yet, the same fae won't have sex with him and he doesn't get that at all.

His hand smoothes over the other's thigh as the other moves, feeling the weight of him and relishing it just as much as the warmth of Daeshim's laughter. His free hand moves up and buries in Daeshim's hair, tongue teasing out against his lips again for a better taste. ]

[faeshim]

[daeshim parts his lips, letting the kiss grow deeper and wetter. he finally draws back, eyelids still heavy as he looks at lennon's face. he wishes to see his expression, wants to see him happy and at peace, the way kisses always make him feel.

the next one is delivered to the tip of lennon's nose. daeshim's fingers curl in the fabric of his shirt to wave it in and out.]

Want to kiss under here too.
