[ Ephemera huffs a little. ]

Oh, yeah? You think I'm smooth?

[ Ephemera smiles again, leaning back. ]

Yeah?

[ Oh. For a moment, Ephemera just watches Drake. He feels better than he did earlier. Settled, in small ways. But the thing easier is still fresh on his mind, the way the sand felt as it stuck under his nails and the smell of the oil. How there was a crowd watching.

He twitches. Tries to smile. Because there's a part of him that wants to, is the thing. To make this something good. He thinks it could be good, with Drake. Something they chose versus a matter of survival and compromise. ]


You -

[ He hesitates. ]

If you go slow, then. You can.

[ Ephemera breathes out and takes Drake's hand. Just holds it, rubbing his thumb along the span of Drake's knuckles. Gentle, always gentle. He needs that, he thinks. Something that isn't about violence or - surviving. ]

Okay.

[ He watches Drake for a moment. ]

I do. Want you. I think about it a lot.

[ Ephemera peers up at him, swallowing hard. The memory of earlier is still there. Raw. But this -

It's quieter. And maybe he needs that, too.

He squeezes Drake's hand. ]


Yeah. Please.

[ It's gentle, is the thing. Slow. Ephemera's breath hitches at the touch but he doesn't jerk away, doesn't flinch. He closes his good eye and just breathes, still holding onto Drake's hand. Feeling his heart rate jump.

It's different from before, in the arena. Not quite so calm. But there's quiet, and that -

That matters.

Ephemera makes a small sound as Drake kisses him. It's gentle. He knew it would be. And for a moment he just lingers there, his good eye still closed. Getting used to it. Remembering what it felt like.

Then he shifts a little and presses into it. Not hard. But he kisses Drake back, shifting one hand to cup the back of Drake's neck. Shield the place where the implant would be, if they'd grown up in the same world. ]

[ Oh. Ephemera shivers again, tupping his head back as Drake runs his hand through Ephemera's hair. The shivery feeling twists through him. Warm, and welcome.

Fuck, he thinks, his good eye still closed. Fuck, I love you.

He swallows hard, then presses forward again. Wanting. ]

[ It feels good like this, Drake pressed close and still standing, but not looming. Just close. Ephemera likes the way Drake's breathing changes, how he can feel it when they're this close. Likes how Drake kisses him, how he holds onto Ephemera's hair, and how easy it feels to just be. Existing on the same wavelength.

Ephemera shivers again. It's been a long time since it's been this slow. He thinks he could kiss Drake like this for a long time. Just hold him, be held. He presses forward again, licking against Drake's mouth to see if Drake will let him. If that feels right, too. He thinks it will. ]

[ He takes it slow. Feeling it out, one hand still cupped protectively over the back of Drake's neck. A steadying touch. An important one. And Drake lets him. Hums and oh, fuck. He can feel it echo.

Ephemera shivers again. He kisses Drake until he needs to draw back just to breathe and then he presses their foreheads together. ]


Fuck.

[ It's been a long time since he's kissed anyone like that. ]

[ Ephemera opens his good eye, trying to catch his breath. Slow down his heart rate when he can feel it pounding in his throat. He squeezes Drake's hand in his.

Gentle. Always. ]


Yeah.

[ It comes out soft. ]

That was - good. It felt good.
requiemshark: (007)

[personal profile] requiemshark 2021-09-20 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
Slow. Yeah.

[ He watches Drake for a long moment. There's a part of him that wants to reach for him again. Kiss him harder. Maybe -

Fuck.

Ephemera shivers a little. He watches Drake closely. ]


...come here?

[ Ephemera huffs a little, lifting their joined hands. He kisses Drake's knuckles. One by one. ]

Just wanted to do that.
requiemshark: (052)

[personal profile] requiemshark 2021-09-20 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah.

[ Ephemera grins at him. ]

That okay?
