Train Meeting

[awakenerd]

Who: You
When: Day 23 morning
Where: The Lounge

[So you've all been invited via Chain to an "Informal Train-wide Meeting". Rean has a few things to say and then the rest of the post can be discussing things among each other really.]

[ It's not the same as not being interested at all.

Crow does pull back when Rean rests his hand against Crow's chest. Whatever Rean's objections are, he's perfectly willing to accept them. ]

I know you weren't. But I'm willing and I'm definitely interested. So it's your call, but-- if it's what you want.... Just letting you know, that option's definitely open.

[awakenerd]

[Aidios help him his heart is racing so fast.]

O-okay. Thank you.

[He's bright red. Is it normal to react so strongly to someone? He doesn't remember.]

It's not that, um, I don't find you really attractive, and I like you a lot, I just... I feel a little like I'd be taking advantage somehow. If I can avoid it... I don't really want to be doing something like this out of pragmatic necessity.... it's even worse because I like you.

I don't know if that makes sense or anything, when I've done it with contractors before.

[But it's weirdly different when he has more choice in who and what he does and binds himself to.]

[bad_crowmance]

[ Feelings.... do make things more complicated. It's an absolutely terrible idea to even consider going any further if Rean feels that way... But despite himself, he's still interested in Rean.

Shit. What's he supposed to do with that? ]

Don't worry about it. [ He reaches over and ruffles his hair. ] Consider it the same deal as my contract offer-- if you decide you wanna go for it, just call me up. And if you don't, that's fine too. We'll still be friends either way.

[ And he can have a crisis about how weirdly easy it is to be comfortable with Rean later. ]

[awakenerd]

[He sighs softly and leans into Crow's hand.]

It's not like I'm not interested right now. I just have a lot to think about.

[He still feels the warmth of Crow's lips on his abs he doesn't know what to do with that, or how intensely his everything reacts to Crow.]

[bad_crowmance]

You haven't even been here a day amd your memories are fucked. Believe me, I understand more than most.

[ And THAT is completely honest. ]

[awakenerd]

Ha... yeah. Of course.

[And Crow has worse amnesia, of course he understands. But that's comforting.]

[bad_crowmance]

Anyway, we really should get back out there now that you're up for it.

[awakenerd]

Yeah....


...

[He leans forward and kisses Crow quickly]

[bad_crowmance]

[ Congratulations, Rean, you surprised Crow! ]

[awakenerd]

[Smiling at him as he pulls back.]

I did that because I wanted to, for the record.

[bad_crowmance]

[ 












Oh. ]

You can't just say things like that and expect me not to want to kiss you back.

[awakenerd]

Haha, I don't recall ever saying anything like expecting you not to want to kiss me

[Sorry he's evil.]

[bad_crowmance]

[ Okay, you know what? He tried to behave himself and no one can say he didn't. But this has nothing to do with offering to help Rean with his mana and everything to do with Rean being really attractiveand Crow really wanting to kiss him. So he does! He pulls him in for a brief but intense kiss, hungry and definitely not entirely chaste. ]

[awakenerd]

[Oh. Well... he sets a hand on Crow's shoulder, not pushing him back as he returns the kiss, only able to hold back so much himself. And right now, it should be okay just to kiss a little.]

[bad_crowmance]

[ It's just a little kissing! It's definitely all Crow is intending on, even as he's sliding his hands into Rean's hair-- any lower and he really won't want to stop. But he takes this moment to explore the contours of Rean's mouth, tasting him hungrily before he manages to tear himself away, his pupils blown wide with want. ] That's true, you didn't.

[awakenerd]

[Crow's not the only one deeply turned on, and Rean's catching his breath, a little dazed as he licks his lips and gathers his wits again.]

Y-yeah. So...

[He's lost track of if he was going anywhere with that actually.]

[bad_crowmance]

So... [ There was some reason he was trying to behave but damned if he can remember it right now. He leans in and captures Rean's lips with his again, hands dipping towards his waist to drag him in closer. ]

[awakenerd]

[O..oh...

He's making a soft, obscene noise against Crow's lips, clutching at his arms because if he doesn't hold those he's going to put his hands somewhere lewder and he vaguely recalls he was not going to do that? For some reason.

Hard to recall when his head is full of Crow's taste and warmth.]

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow swallows those sounds eagerly, kissing Rean fervently even as his hands start traveling, dipping down to grope Rean's ass. All intentions of behaving have been shot to hell anyway, and Rean has a very nice butt. ]

[awakenerd]

Ah... Crow--

[He whispers against Crow's lips, finally pushes him back gently, because at this rate... well it's already gone further than he intended.]

I think we've definitely established the attraction is mutual.

[bad_crowmance]

[ He blinks for a confused moment before he manages to reorient himself, takes a deep breath to calm himself down. ]

Yeah... right. Right.

[ He can behave himself, probably. ]

We should definitely get back then.

[ Because if they stay any longer, he's gonna want to pin Rean against the wall and-- ]

[awakenerd]

Yeah.

[He's laughing a little, giddy and turned on and weirdly elated but he can't explain why.]

Yeah, let's get back.

[bad_crowmance]

[ Goddess, he's just going to have to ignore whatever the hell that weird feeling in his chest is when Rean laughs like that. ]

Let's get back.

[ And he opens the door before he resolve crumbles entirely. ]

[awakenerd]

[He almost reaches for Crow's hand, realizes what he's doing, and stuffs his hands in his pockets.]

Thank you.

[bad_crowmance]

Heh. For what?

[ He notices that but won't call Rean out. ]
