Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[at_heart]

[ —Well. His gaze is steady on Venti's expression for a moment, measuring. ]

...I thought it was an educated guess.

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[outofoffice]

[ Lifts an eyebrow ]

Not well educated.

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[at_heart]

[ ...Well. That makes a difference. Maybe more of one right now than it would've if he were still a were. After another beat of lingering eye contact: ]

My mistake.

[ His voice pitched just a little lower. ]

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[outofoffice]

[ Pivoting on his heel ]

Hehe . . . so do you wanna do something more fun than just hair-braiding~?

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[at_heart]

[ Eyes lidding. Yeah, that's — nice. The expression, the tone. Venti would probably get points for that playfulness no matter what, but... Maybe he's already getting past it after all. ] [ Eases his weight lightly up against a tree at his back~. ]

Is there any way I could get you to narrow that down a little more?

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[outofoffice]

Well, we are already standing under a tree . . . ~

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[at_heart]

[ ...And that expression is even nicer, but for maybe half a second he's a little — disappointed, almost, that Venti didn't take the opening. Huh. ] [ Lupine shelves it, though, because he did pick something, and reaches out instead to curl his fingers in the front of Venti's top: tries to tug him closer. ]

So we are.

[ Yeah, he feels — very past it. Venti wants this, he wants it, no reason not to. ]

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[outofoffice]

[ Nice.

This is the kind of blowing off steam that he's always in the market for. And Lupine certainly does have cute reactions . . .

Don't mind him as he shoves Lupine back against the tree and seals their lips together, not bothering with any token coyness or hesitation. ]

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[at_heart]

[ Eyes widening, hi there; he feels the tree hit his back, and between that and the very firm, insistent kiss — if he still had any lingering reservations, unimportant as they were starting to seem, they're gone now.

His lips part, a flicker of tongue at the seam of Venti's mouth, and his hands find his hips, fingers digging briefly in. ]

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[outofoffice]

[ Venti grins at the answering boldness, not at all shy about parting his lips in response and coyly flicking his tongue against Lupine's own,

or letting his fingers brush Lupine's jaw to shift the angle until it's juuuust right,

or the pleased lilt that drifts from his throat when those fingers dig in,

or the way he presses Lupine flat against the tree.

. . . There's no shyness here at all anywhere, really. ]

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[at_heart]

[ Damn, Venti, that's— ] [ Hnnn, okay, hands shifting to get under Venti and left him, easing the angle on his back, and very much encouraging — more of all of that.

The confidence, the certainty, they'd probably be a turn-on anyway, but they're going right through him right now, like a knife through butter. ]

1/2

[outofoffice]

[ His fingers slide against Lupine's jaw, thumb briefly pressing into the pulse point at his neck as he press closer, making a low and satisfied sound. The other braces against the bark beside Lupine's head, like he's getting himself good and comfortable. ]

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[outofoffice]

[


And then he pulls back abruptly, expression betraying that he knows exactly what he's doing and intends to manipulate it to great effect.

(His pupils are certainly blown wider than before, though) ]

How much do you think counts for your square~? ♪

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[at_heart]

[ That definitely pulls a noise out of him, low and thick. His eyes roll open lazily, fix on Venti's face. A breathless laugh, his eyes also dark where they aren't like polished silver. ]

Are you fucking kidding me.

[ Achievement unlocked: Lupine will now swear out loud around you, instead of just in his head. He still doesn't do it a lot, though; reflex to be more kid-friendly is strong. ]

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[outofoffice]

[ HEHEHEHEH

Feral hours are now ]

If there's a problem, then do something about it.

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[at_heart]

[ A little snort, and he sneaks a forehead kiss because it's one of his squares before saying, almost as sweetly, ]

If only I had a square for lying to people so I could say I wouldn't have thought you were a tease.

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[outofoffice]

[ Bursts out laughing like the gremlin he is. ]

I'll gladly make up for it anytime. ♪

[ BOY HOT ]

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[at_heart]

[ Grin. Doesn't so much seem to mind that. Mounting evidence might suggest that 'gremlin' is actually one of his types. ]

Anytime, really? [ Playful. ] You promise?

[ He feels good, right now. Warm. And as very nice as the kiss was, he might be more interested in making Venti laugh.

...Though if there's anything else Venti wants, well... ]

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[outofoffice]

[ Leaning in again until they're nose-to-nose again, still smirking. ]

Cross my heart!

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[at_heart]

[ A very amused noise. ]

Isn't the end of that 'and hope to die'? That's barely a consequence here. Guess I'll just have to make sure it's really worth doing anyway.

[ Light. He tips his head back, thinking. Apparently completely content to do this thinking while still leaning with his back against the tree and Venti's weight supported. ]

Let's see... I've got a square for pinning someone down with vines, a square for poisoned kissing, a square for using pollen in ~some way~... [ Chuckle. ] Squares for nature walks and sunbathing and meditation... Squares for decorating places and people... [ Snorts. ] I'll have to find someone to confess a secret to, in a tree because why not.

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[outofoffice]

[ Venti, similarly, is shameless enough to not even move at all for this conversation. ]

Hmmm~

You could find someone much more into in the first one, and it would be pretty bad if I got poisoned, so . . .

I vote for pollen or nature walks or secrets~

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[at_heart]

[ It's comfy?? Why would they move?? Lupine's strong, Venti weighs nothing, this is fine. ] [ A chuckle, ]

Why do I feel like you like one of those options more than the other two.

[ ...And why not, really. He's got something he could say. Lipquirk, but instead of continuing he's gonna just ~nightingale~ them, a flourish of scented wind full of petals and leaves; one lifts them up, then up. Because maybe he remembers this was something Venti liked, too. ]

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[outofoffice]

Oh--!

[ That actually catches him off guard, but he quickly breaks into laughter at the familiar sensation of floating.

It's been a long time . . . ! ]

You really do have some amazing abilities!

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[at_heart]

[ It's a ludicrously soft way of flying, too, like. Ride the leaf. ] [ But he smothers a laugh and gives Venti a toothy grin. ]

Thought you'd like that.

[ Hops off the leaf to land neatly on a thick enough bough, careful to shift and maintain his balance as it sways briefly under their combined weight. ]

Re: + Venti, Monster Bingo 3

[outofoffice]

[ Any flying is good flying, if you've spent months as a bird with clipped wings.

Venti balances easily, like perhaps he's someone who spends a lot of time in trees for some reason . . . ]

If I didn't know better, I'd think I was being wooed.
