@Wu Yifan Nodding with a small pout as the other continued to . Placing a hand on his cheek as the kiss started off as gentle, as Kris continued to move his fingers over his body. Softly out as his kisses moved down ti his neck, the prince clung on to the elder wanting more.
Looking up at him in question when he had stopped, instead of asking he too listened. Hearing the familiar sounds of guards searching, he froze. Afraid of what was to come. He watched as the captain put on his clothes, unable to voice his protest or fears. He knew why they were there, or the possible reason, but he had hope that the kingdom had given up looking for him long ago. Its seemed like he wasn't away long enough, if would've known he would've asked the other to choose a different place to dock, in a whole other country.
If anything were to happen to the man, it would be Jiho's own fault for being unable to protect him. He didn't warn him of the possible dangers that lurked for keeping him aboard. His own silence and selfishness would get the man he loved killed if not imprisoned.
He looked around the room for his pants, if they were going to find him, it would be best if they didn't find him half- in the captain's room. There would be more than enough reason for the king to imprison him, he didn't need to give them more. Sitting on the bed once he was dressed pulling his legs up to his chest and waited for the inevitable.
@Woo Jiho ♡ This had to be a dream, right? There was no way somebody like Kris deserved something like this; maybe he got the wrong person's fate? What murderer (of sorts) and thief (of sorts) belongs with... what, a duke? minister? As Kris realized he never actually asked about his position, it occurred to him that maybe Jiho didn't want to say. He was... Private. So, Kris decided to abandon his curiosity and focus on what his lover was now.
A pirate.
"Tease?" He cocked an eyebrow and feigned innocence. "Who, me?" He nonchalantly grazed the clothed member and began to gently dance around it with his fingertips. He smirked and kissed Jiho all while occasionally stroking him, occasionally doing things to invoke pleasure; knowing the other, he wouldn't be able to hang on much longer without actual action.
Before Kris could begin his littering of kisses down the other's neck, a clamoring crowd ashore caught his attention. The words "search," and "nowhere is off limits," caused his hackles to rise and his blood to freeze. He pulled away from his lover and looked in his eyes. "I have a feeling something big is about to happen. I need you to hi-- stay... in here, gem." He was already sweating as he lept from beneath the covers, donned a pair of trousers and a white blouse, and his thin sword.
He gazed at the other momentarily before fastening his boots. "I love you."
@Wu Yifan Smiling softly, holding one to every word and holding them close to heart gently returning his kiss. softly as shivers ran through his body feeling him move to down his neck. Feeling his cheeks grow warm, as he continued to speak, heart pounding loudly. Thinking back to when they had first met, he knew it was the elder's dream to keep sailing the world. Hearing him say he would stop was more than shocking to him, he didn't want him to give up something he loved doing. He hadn't really thought of returning home or to land very much, he just had small moments of homesickness, but it would pass. There was nothing for him to return to, why should he force someone to return with him?
He shook his head, "my only desire is to remain where ever you are. I don't want to force you to give up your dream."
Gasping softly feeling his cool fingers against him, biting back his moan of disappointment as he . Pulling back in for another kiss, "you tease."
@Woo Jiho ♡ Kris couldn't help but laugh softly into Jiho's ear. "Tire of you? Oh, no. I only grow more intrigued every day." He met the other's lips in a longer kiss before running his lips gently down his exposed throat-- prime location for a vampire-- and stopping at his collarbone. His ghostly skin was smooth over every inch of his body, a bit mysterious to Kris, who always performed laborious jobs that ruined his chances at perfect flesh. Then he paused to catch his breath, lying face-to-face with his lover and running tickling, feathering touches down his arms and torso.
"Jiho... Can I tell you something?" He knew the answer was yes of course, but it was more of a warning that something cheesy was going to escape his mouth. "For you, I would give up the ocean. The vastness of salt water is no comparison of the variety your human life holds. The ocean cannot love, for it is only cruel and unforgiving. But you... My prince. You left your life, and you could have run anywhere. I am beyond delighted and relieved that you chose to run with me. Who knew that meeting would have meant so much?" The corners of his mouth twitched upward and he began to leave touches lower and lower on his torso, until he began to snake his fingers into the lining of his breeches.
"So if you ever desire to return to land, know that I will be returning to stay with you." He would not reveal his plans to the other, but now that their journey to Grimor proved to be a wash, he had doubled back on Tradian. They were going home (or as homey as he could ever consider a country).
He continued to plant deliberate kisses on his lips while sneaking coldish fingers into his under wear to . "But while we're here... I won't say I mind the rocking of the ship. It makes it easier to... Get into it." He winked before letting his hand graze over Jiho's member to instead his thigh. "The sound of the waves... It is quite beautiful... kind of like you."
@Wu Yifan Laughing softly as the elder moved placing hands on each cheek as their lips met several time. Slowly moving down to his chest to grip on resting them there as the kisses grew in feeling. Tilting his head slightly as the captain moved down to his neck, shivering slightly feeling his hot breath at his ear. Smiling softly, "that could take a while. Are you sure you won't tire of me before then?"
Reaching back up to pull him down for another kiss, even after the few month, a small fear still lurked. Haunting him, like a shadow that appeared in every corner of his mind. His relationships with others being almost non-existent until he arrived onto the ship. Forcing him to interact with others and getting comfortable with being around them.
@Woo Jiho ♡ Kris knew that Jiho was a er for love right after their first encounter, and learned that he loved to love him. Stroking his silky hair and pressing warm kisses into his lips, and wrapping strong arms around his trunk; this is exactly what Kris imagined when the words 'true love' made their way to his ears. Without the feeling of contempt or fear or disgust at all for the other he decided /maybe/ they were soulmates. But who could say, when they were led together by accident. "What I need?"
He straddled Jiho completely and treated the other to several more kisses, this time deeper and more passionate; he trailed his affections down the other's jaw and neck, stopping to nibble his earlobe. "I want to love all of you until all of me has memorized you." He would take it slower than ever, using this lazy and dutiless morning to shower the other in praise and immovable, unconditional love.
@Wu Yifan A shy smile graced his lips, feeling his cheeks grow warm. A shiver running through his body as he felt a a finger run down his back. Gasping out softly as their positions changed, returning what he could of kisses. Laughing softly, "I'm fine with anything as long as it doesn't end up with me in that suit."
A hand reaching down to pull up his long night shirt up teasingly stopping mid thigh. Reaching his hand back up to pull Kris into a gentle kiss letting him set the pace, for now. "It just depends what you're in the mood for. And how much you feel you need."
@Woo Jiho ♡ With the frequency of strange dreams, it wasn't surprising that Jiho went with it, totally unperturbed. "You're probably right. Sounds like an enjoyable pastime, indeed." He gave a smirk and ran a finger down the other's spine. "I can... Think of something I would like to do. Or, someone.." His lip quirked upward and he nuzzled into the hand on his face.
Thinking of acts he wished to partake in certainly woke him up, and he twisted and wriggled to roll onto his side and partially hover over Jiho. He stole a couple more kisses and then rested his head on his hand. The other was considerably shorter, and the slender toes stretched out futilely to reach his own. He entangled their legs and rested his free hand on the other's waist. " have you any ideas, dearest?"
@Wu Yifan He laughed out softly shaking his head, feeling he should've expected this. But a jester's garb? He couldn't even see himself in it, thinking he'd look very awkward in it. Trying not to sound rude, hoping his voice sounded playful, "it's seems you just want to dress me up just to tear them off. I don't think the colors would suit me."
Closing his eyes as another kiss was placed on his forehead, opening them slightly. Pouting a bit at the thought of having to get out of bed, but he knew staying in bed would accomplish nothing. With a heavy sigh he answered with a teasing voice, "I'm suppose I can muster the energy to do something."
Smiling as he places a hand gently on his lover's cheek, "is there something you wish to do?"
@Woo Jiho ♡ Jiho spoke first, a relief to Kris, then gave him a kiss in return. "No, love. You didn't disturb me. How did you sleep?" He grinned and relaxed into the other while they snuggled lazily. "You filled my dreams once again-- this time in a jjester's garb." He chuckled before tousling Jiho's hair and then caressing his neck. His skin was warm and smooth, and he couldn't help but want to kiss every inch of it.
"How are you feeling? Very...awake?" He chewed his lip and pressed another kiss to his temple.
@Wu Yifan His hands gripping lightly onto his shirt feeling something brush lightly against them. Smiling softly to himself, trying not to let the light touches disturb him from falling asleep. Wondering if he had woken him or if he was just waking on his own, feeling slightly guilty for disturbing him. Feeling a kiss on his forehead caused him to open his own eyes, looking up at the elder as he softly spoke, "did I wake you?"
Moving himself up slightly so he could look at him directly, leaning in closer to place a gently kiss on his nose. Feeling a bit playful despite trying to fall asleep just moments ago. Wrapping his arms around the Kris's neck, hugging him lightly.
@Woo Jiho ♡ ( I think they can have this last peaceful morning... The throne room scene is still going on rn anyhow. i also posted a thing in the harbor room, hopefully acting as the spark for the confrontation/meeting between Jiho and the King; i think it should remain still until they actually conclude to start that part. i hate ever trying to initiate big things. :>
also i really love the way you write <3 you are such a delight~ )
The rustling of fabric, tug of the blanket, soft breaths and dip of mattress caused Kris to stir, though he also chose to remain blissfully comfortable and utterly lazy. His eyelids fluttered but remained stubbornly sealed against the possibility of actually waking up. When Jiho turned over once more and released a content sigh of "maximum hunkering," lying his left side over Kris's and his soft hand to rest on his chest. He was also having a hard time falling back asleep. Though he was quite resigned and willing to lie there until he slipped into unconsciousness, he couldn't resist the temptation to give the other affection.
He raised a hand with little to no mental effort, even if he felt weary from doing so thanks to his state of slothfulness, and feathered his fingertips and fingernails over the pale hand; in comparison to Kris Jiho was fair, but to the tone he wore just months ago was seasoned to a delicate sun's kiss. His hair also changed, having no means to treat it, now somewhere between ash and the remains of golden honey, almost shining a platinum purple in blue light or strawberry-blond in blazing red sunsets. In the time it took to double back to Tradian from the southern border of Grimor, his friend became the burning flame of passion in his dark cave of life.
Kris dragged his feathering touches up his arm and shoulder, slowly, and finally brushed back his soft strands. He didn't speak-- didn't dare disurb the orb of silent serenity. How could a beautiful nobleman grow into such a handsome, athletic-looking rogue? 'Though he possesses the wild side of a panda before a nap.' The peace surrounding the ship was far too.. quiet, lasting far too long. Little did he know...
He continued to pamper the younger man With grazing motions, then finally did the unimaginable and cracked his eyelids apart just long enough to safely plant a kiss on his forehead.
@Wu Yifan (Will this be affected by the King's arrival?)
Curling closer into the warmth of his lover, covering his face from the light the managed to peak through the curtains, not yet ready to wake wake up. Jiho gently tugged the elder's arms around him, finding comfort in them. Pulling the comforter over his face to better block the light, trying to fall back asleep not caring how lazy he seemed. With a heavy sigh, still not comfortable with his position. Rolling over to face Kris and burying his face in his chest, breathing in his scent. clinging to him as he tried to drift back off to sleep. Unfortunately, sleep was not coming to him easily. Giving up slightly, hoping that if he just laid there with his eyes closed long enough sleep would come.
@Woo Jiho ♡ (Kris wrote him a letter, and when they wake up Kris will ask Jiho to go do smth for him, to prepare the surprise. So maybe just waking up? :3 )
@Woo Jiho ♡ ( absolutely my fault. let me make it up to you. :>
i read through and realized that I hella godmod. and my writing is really self-centered. so. so i will try and make this painless..? ehehh we'll see eue. )
The tan and burnt auburn quill danced jovially, vigorously across the heavy, rose-textured parchment, swaying and waving with dozens of fluffy, fuzzy arms; ceasing was frequent, but the quill's dancing frenzy was "lit" (#as the kids would say), as if the song of the bird it fell from was still ringing true. Kris leaned into the rose's sweet perfume and knitted his brows in deep thought. He could not chant or tap or pace, for his lover slumbered at the head of the bed, and he, turned upside down, wrote discreetly at the foot of the bed. The parchment was pinned in all corners (or where it wouldn't tear off with vigorous stenciling), to a piece of technology he called a 'floor stationary.
Quill to inkwell of purple, then to flow into coherent and presumably romantic phrases- 'oh, bird-- to share with you the knowledge your feather possesses. ' His poetic mood certainly... was different. After the length of the expensive scroll was covered in what Kris called a "love letter," he blew on it as quietly as he could, event hough he knew the other was out cold. Soon it was dry, tucked into an envelope that read, "read before entering," and set discreetly under the bed.
'My grand scheme, ' he mused in silence while stashing his set, then dousing the miniature lamp. 'In the meantime... a deep rest.' As Kris sighed hhappily-- happy to caress his lover, to smell him and bask in his warmth-- he big-spooned Jiho and sank into the lush pilow cloaked in purple satin. He loved this pillow- the not-too-sleek or slippy feel that was still heaven on thr face. He drifted into sleep two candle marks after Jiho.
@Wu Yifan [H] Jiho raised a hand gently touching his love's jaw before he pulled away, his cheeks a darker red and panting slightly. He watched as the other placed to book down before getting up, speaking as he did so. The prince shrugged, "I used to think people wrote about their experience. How else would they be able to write theses things?"
His eyes widening witnessing the elder pour some hot was onto him, causing him to worry. Watching his facial expressions. Hesitantly he reached put to touch to the to was he was told to test. Feeling the smooth and soft wax the coated his fingers. Chewing his bottom lip again, pulling his hand close, "I trust you with my body... if you wish... I will try to learn this."
@Woo Jiho ♡ Kris simply laughed at the lad's remark. "Some things... you just can't learn from a book." To make a point, he leaned forward and gave Jiho a deep and slow kiss, then pulled away to gently bunt his forehead. "Things like that. And I'll tell you what-- is a lot less fun from a book." With a raised brow, he took the book. "What does a book know about pleasure, besides the author's pen at it's pages?" He set the book on the side table and hummed. "Perhaps I could prove it to you? Watch." He then removed himself from the bed and stood to approach the flickering candle, scentless and thick in the small shade. When he removed it, instantly wax slopped over the edge and splashed onto his fingers. He did not so much as hiss.
"The wax is very hot when it is touching the flame, so it melts. But when it touches the air, it cools considerably." To demonstrate this, he tipped the candle over and let the pool surrounding the wick to drizzle on him; it was hotter, and he did flinch a bit. "See, now that was warm. But when I do this," he started as he carefully let the wax trail down the candle before gently plopping to his hand. "It is much cooler. Feel it on my hand," he urged the other. "Before it melts." If the other ultimately refused this, fine; however, Kris wanted to help his love overcome small fears-- unreasonable fears, and beginning with harmless things like this was a good way to start. "If it truly burns, blow on it-- no problem." He continued to beam at the other, just proud of his effort thus far. "My bold shaye'krev'ashke."
softly as the elder nibbled on his neck, gripping on to the front of his shirt. A blush forming on his cheeks, not sure how he should feel. Somehow things were different now, from how he used to be back at the castle. He knew he caused a lot of trouble for the staff and had hurt a few, but he had to make himself known and push everyone away. Everyone only knew him as the bastard child there but here. He was nobody. He had nothing to prove or push any one away from. He didn't need anyone to fear him and he very much doubted they would fear he. Much less what he would do, only brushing it off as him being a child.
Here there was someone whom loved him, but Jiho still feared roaming outside of the room alone if he didn't know where the captain was. A constant fear in the back of his mind telling him that he wasn't good enough. Chewing his bottom lip as he continued to get lost in thought, the books he found in the dungeon had mentions of a few of the items The captain was suggesting. But none seemed like fun. Not the way they had it. Thinking a moment longer he shook his head, "I don't know...everything I've learned has been through books.."
"He looked over to a drawer where he had placed a few reaching in and pulling it out for Kris to look over. "And they don't seem very fun to me."
@Woo Jiho ♡ Kris knew the other was feeling nervous, maybe even scared, but what was there to fear? "Okay, baby. Then we will take it slow. You choose, alright?" He placed a soft kiss on Jiho's lips before smirking. "You know how to please me quite well, I think. You can do anything to me- i'm not scared." His kisses grew a bit more heated, pressing downward to litter pecks on his jaw. Then he started to gently nibble at his neck. "I love you." this much was constant and true- he would never stop loving the other.
"Too far? You've run away across an ocean and climbed the crow's nest... too far to stop," he joked. Then his features went solemn and he ceased to kiss the other. "Are you... Comfortable?"
@Wu Yifan [H] He shook his head, trying to thingk it over for a while. He was afraid he would make a mistake and things would go horribly wrong. He could do something he didn't know how to do, he'd have to be taught to do it right. Wouldn't he? Or was this something that was done through trail and error? He would have to compromise somewhere, but wording in would be another challenge. Chewing his bottom lip in thought before looking at the elder. "I wouldn't know how to do it right.... I want to learn if it please you..."
The prince averted his eyes, "it's just something's make me a bit nervous. I'm afraid, things will go too far."
@Woo Jiho ♡ "Hmm? Hurt? Oh no." He grinned and snuggled against the other, burrowing into blankets as well. "It's not /that/ hot, kechara. Just warm for a moment, then it cools and dries." He then wrapped his arm around Jiho's waist, pulling him close to be the 'little spoon,' at a very close proximity. "And the ropes? To blindfold you and tie you up and feather you... it sounds fun." He beamed as he pressed a kiss to his neck. "You can do it to me, if that helps."
@Wu Yifan [H] The prince stirred slightly feeling someone waking him, groaning softly in slight disappointment. Smiling softly hearing him mention his dream forcing him to wake, after peaking his interest. Jiho couldn't help but frown and blush slightly when his love continued with his dream. A woman? Really? His blush growing at the thought. Did people really use this things like in the books? It was a wonder why his aunt didn't want him reading certain books. He looked at his love nervously, would he really pour hot wax on him? Didn't that hurt?
Pulling the blankets tighter astound himself, with a small pout. "No, I don't want to get burned. "
