[ You know, if he'd had any doubts, the hug would've dispelled them. A warm embrace would've been a startling greeting even if they'd never run into each other during Last Supper, but given the givens, it's definitely not what Lupine was expecting here. He shifts to help support Hades as best he can. ]
What? [ ...Starting to be a little amused instead of just concerned. ] For drinks, you mean?
[ Hades did mention he could 'bring' them, so there's... probably a bunch of beer or wine or something around the dorm. Here's hoping it's in Hades's room and not already making Tsukky drunk by proxy. ]
[This was definitely a booty call but. Drinks are a good start, and he could have some more, for sure! Like he probably shouldn't but whatever. Bad decisions ahoy!]
You like sake? S'not warm, but not bad. Could probably heat it up if you want.
[ So, what you're saying is, his lack of getting fully dressed will come in handy here? ]
I'm not that picky... but are you sure you haven't already had enough?
[ It's a little bit hilarious how very not on the 'booty call' page he is mentally. Instead he's mentally going through a checklist, like 'well, we're already at his place, so no need to get him home safe...' ]
Feels weird if you are drinking but I am not. What am I to do while you drink? I could try to entertain, but m'afraid I do not have the common skills that men should have in that regard.
[It almost feels shameful for some reason. Men are beautiful, elegant... not like Hades at all. He is sure he can't sing, can't dance.]
[ Honestly the idea of genders having Jobs they're Supposed to Do is just wild to him no matter which way it's sliced. ] [ But, uh, watching, and....... ]
Kind of you.
[ Settling down at whatever kitchenette kinda thing Avante has available. ]
[Look, he's just used to men being small and beautiful and frail and women being big and strong and charismatic! And Hades likes men who are small and beautiful and frail, and he is just so very not that.]
Hmmm... [Hades thinks about that, because he does not remember exactly why he started drinking with Valor. He shrugs.]
To relax, I guess. been a bad day, just don't wanna think about it.
This is why I sent the message to you. It's just sad to drink by oneself, right? No! I am not asking you. I am telling you that is how I feel. I got drunk with Valor and then he left me alone, and I was lonely, and I do not want to go to bed alone tonight.
I do not want to go to bed alone any night, but I am no one's favorite person, and so I will sleep alone more often than not! But not tonight. If you would join me, I mean. You are free to decline of course, even if I am trying to do more of what I want and less of what is expected of me.
[He's mostly rambling at this point, having half a conversation with himself that Lupine is simply not privy to, and that's just what happens when he drinks.]
[ Wow, he got drunk-dialed in the middle of the night for sex, didn't he. That's what this is. But whatever reaction Lupine might've had to that ordinarily, everything else Hades is saying is just so—
[ There's a little part of Lupine's brain that really wants to argue with the idea that not being anyone's favorite person necessarily means sleeping alone. After all, he's pretty sure he's not anyone's favorite, either, but he still has plenty of company.
Probably wouldn't be a super helpful observation right now, though. ]
—Well. [ Pushes his bangs out of his eyes. ] Trying not to stress so much about what you're 'expected' to do is a step in the right direction, for sure.
[ And so was texting him, really, instead of Perse. He should probably be encouraging this whole thing. ]
...You could've been clearer about what you were asking, though. I would not have shown up looking like this if I knew you wanted that kind of company.
[He would actually die of embarrassment if he even thought of trying to booty call Persephone. Thankfully it didn't cross his mind!]
... Why would you not look like this? You look perfectly good as you are now.
[This isn't a date or anything. And Hades is barely dressed as it is, his shirt unbuttoned and askew, showing off a lot of his scarred-up chest, his hair is down, just pulled to a side, and it looks like he's wearing pants only because he can't just have a guest come over and him be nude.]
If you want to go get dressed up though, I would certainly not stop you. [Tail wag! He is flattered at the idea that Lupine might want to dress up for him.] But point taken. Next time I will inform you in the phone letter.
[ Eyebrows just lift a little higher. Pfft phone letter. ]
I'll take that as a compliment, but what I mean is I probably wouldn't have bothered with the pants. [ Tiniest smirk. ] This shirt's long enough to be decent for an elevator ride.
[ —stupid tail. Pulled focus, and now that he's no longer focused on the 'mystery' of what Hades wanted, he's. very reminded of the fact that Hades's corruptions include dog ears, and that's...
Biting the inside of his cheek. Well, it's already helping him get in the right mood here. ]
[ ...stupid tail. ] [ Lupine shuts his eyes, then smirks. ]
What, right out here in the open? Not even gonna ask me back to your room first?
[ He didn't put on shoes, so he's just going to be shimmying out of the leggings now. It'd probably be nice to watch even if he weren't trying to put on a show — the boy has hips, so he has to shift his weight while he pushes them down~.
But, you know. He is trying to put on a show, so. ]
[ Who says he was going for shame. ] [ A lingering stretch as he tugs fully free, pulling his knee to his chest. Looks up to see Hades watching and — smirks a tiny bit more. ]
See? [ Both feet back on the floor now, hand finding his hip. ] Sends a very different message.
[His tail wags some more as his ears perk up, and he gives Lupine a crooked grin.]
Alright, I will lead you there.
[He'll go to Lupine and wrap an arm around his waist, taking him along to Hades' room. It's typical of avante rooms. Hades hasn't done much to differentiate it yet, other than having various fanmail things in here. The naughtier things are put away, but there is a big shark plush on his bed.]
[ So chivalrous~. ] [ Lupine glances around the room curiously, then pauses on seeing the plush. Oh man. As if the golden retriever dog bits weren't enough of a reminder of what kind of guy he's sleeping with here.
But. Pleasant distraction. That's his job tonight. So he slips away from Hades's arm, settling himself on the edge of the bed. Letting the sleep shirt ride up in the process, so that it's baring even more thigh. ]
Alone at last? That's the thing people say, right?
[ And if this weren't a rendezvous in the middle of the night, it'd even be appropriate. ]
[Hades does so like to look. Lupine looks good on his bed in just a shirt, Hades decides as he follows Lupine to the bed, standing in front of him.]
I don't really know. It isn't as if we had an audience before, but this is much more cozy.
[He comes at Lupine from the front, direct. More direct than he normal is, perhaps. Hades brushes some hair from Lupine's face before leaning down, taking Lupine's chin in his hand to tilt his face up before going in for a kiss.]

Re: Night, 449
Heh, when you put it like that, I'm pretty sure I'm lacking whatever skills you're talking about, too.
[ ...He's going to steer Hades gently into the kitchen. ]
We could have tea, or — water.
[ Definitely not coffee in the middle of the night...? ]
Re: Night, 449
Mmmmhhh, no. Today is not a day for tea or water.
[It is a bad decisions day, Lupine!
Hades does go into the kitchen after some coaxing though, but he immediately goes for a cabinet in which he has sake stored, pulling out a bottle.]
I will drink less than you, so you can catch up.
Re: Night, 449
Kind of you.
[ Settling down at whatever kitchenette kinda thing Avante has available. ]
What're we drinking to? Or for.
Re: Night, 449

Re: Night, 449

Re: Night, 449

You don't need to bother with them now if you do not want to. I certainly wouldn't mind.

Re: Night, 449
Hades is immediately distracted by watching as those tight pants push off of Lupine's hips, down his thighs...]
Ah... I suppose we could have... [Distracted by Legs.]
...... gone to my room at any time. Still can, if it pleases you.
Re: Night, 449
