[ What does he want to do? That's a dangerous question. Percival wants to bridge the distance between him, to take the idiot by his hair and crush their lips together. He wants to let his hands roam over Vane's muscles.
But can he voice that? Absolutely not.
Vane spares him the need to when he leans forward and apparently completely gives against him. The weight is both shocking and welcome, making him feel both affection and exasperation. That pretty much summed up his feelings towards Vane on any given day, anyway.
He shouldn't trouble his friend any further. Maybe this means he was ready to sleep it off, and all would be forgotten in the morning. He could deal with his own troubles later. So, with one swift motion, he drapes Vane's arm around his shoulder, stumbling down the hallway and leading them towards Vane's bed. Vane may be heavy, and they may be drunk, but he's strong enough that the task isn't too difficult. Even now, he struggles not to think of the way they're still so close he can feel the other's hot breath near his neck. ]
Get some rest. [ He frowns, settling Vane down on the edge of his bed. Even if the last thing he wants to do is stop touching him. ]
[ it's a strange sensation to be carried like this. in a way it was sort of eye-opening. not that he's ever doubted percival's capability or his intention to have his back, but physically being able to feel it and see it up-close is ... different. overtime he breathes in, he takes in that usual scent the other knight carried. he almost marvels at the concept. ... maybe likening him to a dog wasn't all too far off at times.
he seems to smile to himself momentarily, before his weight shifts and sinks to the relatively poor mattress.
it's in this moment that vane does not take action by thought (he hardly ever does), but by guts alone. maybe it's the shadows in the dark, or the way percival was casted in light of his intoxication, but he seemed lonely? longing? vane isn't sure what it is, but already feels himself moving to eliminate such a prospect.
he tugs on percival's wrist. theres a silent "i won't go anywhere" in there somewhere.
it's something raw and honest. in light of their losses, it's real. but, of course, vane is quick to diffuse it with a strained smile. there's more he wants to say or explain, but he can't and doesn't. before long, he falls victim to all the swell of desires he's felt previous to this. it's almost like it all came together like a second wind as he regains some of his energy. enough to grab the back of percival's neck and pull him close enough to press their lips together.
all things considered it's a shoddy job and all he can taste is the alcohol they've both consumed but he doesn't mind it. ]
[ At first, he truly thinks that this is the end of that. In a way, it's relieving. It means that they wouldn't have to deal with an uncomfortable conversation later, even if Percival has no idea how he's going to cope through the night. But, this is exactly what he deserved for being so blindly trusting of an unknown establishment.
Of course, things aren't that simple. Before Percival knows what's happening, his wrist is grabbed, and his journey out the door brought to an abrupt halt. ]
Let me go. [ He says, voice low, sounding as if he's at the end of his rope. Perhaps that's why he offers surprisingly little resistance when he's pulled forward. His body tenses when Vane pulls him close by the nape of his neck, yet oddly, the feeling of their lips pressing puts him... oddly at ease.
It tells him that they weren't on such separate pages after all, even if the page they're on is the worst idea to ever indulge.
The kiss is sloppy, both parties a little too intoxicated to worry much about keeping the gesture tidy and chaste. He craves more of this taste, the taste of Vane, alcohol and all, and though his face warms with nervousness and embarrassment all over again, he grips Vane's shirt tightly in his fist and shifts to straddle his lap where Vane sits. All the while, he doesn't pull away from his mouth. ]
[ though percival speaks clearly, vane is far too in a state of disarray to pay it any mind. it rolls off his back like any of his insults might have. instead he focuses on what they have physically. the feel of percival's lips against his own. the softness of his lips in contrast to how roughly they move against his own. they're both obviously not all to precise with their movements. there's wasted effort everywhere, including how ... vane misses grabbing percival's thigh.
while he tries to help to ease him on his lap, instead vane ends up grabbing a fistful of sheets with his free hand. a steep and polar opposite as the firm hand on the back of percival's neck slides lower. more purposely as they slide against muscle and the material of his shirt. with this, slowly, his other hand seems to find its proper place especially as he begins attempts to hitch percival's shirt upwards and over his torso. but that's as far as he makes it.
he pulls their lips apart for a few seconds if just to breathe against his mouth and give a: ] Eheh... what happened to "let me go"? [ yeah, he would at this timing? still, he leans back in, just to gently press his teeth against the corner of percival's lips...
but, it's a mystery if he actually meant to do that or if he just missed and just vaguely tried to recover. ]
[ Their movements may not be refined in any sense of the word. In fact, if his mind were clearer and his own thoughts less clouded by alcohol, he would have spared a moment to have a good laugh at Vane's expense and the way he aims his grip and misses.
As careless and sloppy as their movements are, they satisfy and urge Percival on nonetheless in a way that he never would have entertained. Certainly not with Vane, of all people. Vane was someone that he was doomed to continually butt heads with. Someone that he would secretly consider a friend, but would never publicly acknowledge more than necessary. And rarely without a healthy dose of insults to follow.
But tonight, as a consequence of their poor decisions, he yearns for his company and his affection, and the stupid way he can't even kiss him properly without letting his tongue slip to the side of his lips, wet and shameless. Percival braces his palms on both of Vane's shoulders and frowns deeply at the other's taunt. Is that the game he was going to play, even now, when he's clearly past the point of being able to make rational decisions? He settles further into Vane's lap and tugs on his shirt collar harshly enough that their foreheads meet and are held firmly in place. ]
Keep provoking me, I dare you.
[ He shifts a little and closes his eyes when Vane teases him with his teeth, accidental or not. He's so stupid. But this is endearing and affectionate in the way that only Vane is capable of, without pretense or subtlety. It's this stupidly simple gesture of affection that makes his heart swell with affection for this idiot. ]
[ slipping into their usual dynamic and exchanges was oddly comforting. in the midst of so many things shifting and altering between them— their closeness, the kisses they shared in breathlessness, and the hints of intimacy and arousal— it grounds him as a constant. it presses him forwards and onwards and despite the threat, he can feel himself smiling. his cheeks hurting a bit at the angle of his teeth, and in subduing a chuckle that threatens to surface.
in a way this was as true to himself as percival probably could be, and he appreciates that. something he shows with his body. he continues to lay his hands over percival's bare skin. he hasn't removed his shirt completely, getting it stuck somewhere near his shoulder blades, but his hands roam beneath percival's shirt regardless. hungry for establishing contact. he allows his heat to conform to roughness of his palms. despite being a seasoned knight and a reliable comrade on the battlefield— his body was far softer than his own. his skin smooth and supple. somehow, even if vane hardly really thought of appearances...
he thinks it's beautiful. even when he feels his neck area tighten with the way percival grabs at his collar— he doesn't seem to mind. something that's obvious as his lips drag against percival's skin. he leans in close to his ear, gently sucking on the lobe, before he gives a quiet: ] Percy, so scary! [ he whispers it, but there's still that exclamation to his words. ... and maybe that bit of ridicule that never really leaves their exchanges. he means well, of course. in retrospect ...
it's actually amazing how they could quip back at each other even in this state. ]
[ Has he ever given thought to what Vane's roughened hands might feel like against his skin? No, truthfully. But right now, it is the only thing he can think about, and each sensation imprints in his memory in a way that ensures he'll never forget it. The increasingly tight feeling between his legs ensures this as well. Percival's mind grows heavy with wanting, practical thoughts flooded by the desire to escalate the situation, to bask in his warm presence and explore his body, too.
It doesn't help that the hot breath against his ear, and way Vane's palms drag across his torso, both weaken his resolve and make him flushed and warm with embarrassment and arousal. He also feels more than a little humiliated, to be reduced to the state so easily by someone who didn't even fathom what was initially happening. He shivers at the feel of Vane's hot tongue teasing his lobe. The remark is enough to spark indignation in him, because of course it is, and he drops his hands from being braced on Vane's shoulders to suddenly dipping between them.
Without any warning, he pushes his palm firmly between Vane's thighs, harshly squeezing the outline of his cock through his trousers with greedy fingers.
He doesn't seem thrilled with the idea of being so visibly vulnerable, apparently. Not without Vane giving a little back. ]
[ strangely enough (to him), he's drawn to this side of percy that seems so ... defenseless? he isn't sure if that's the right word, but it's endearing somehow. he's filled with these sentiments up until percival presses his hands between his legs.
it's something he hadn't accounted for, and he automatically feels the embarrassment settle in.
he was already beginning to feel a bit tighter against his pants, but this was ... unprecedented. he feels himself harden under percival's touch and he idea that he's getting stimulated from the other. so purposely too. though that indignant look that percival wears so well seems to tip him off to the fact that this was probably in regards to his comment (unbeknowest to him, it's actually the whole affair he's exasperated with). ] That's unfair...
[ no one did anything below the belt yet??? as far as vane is concerned wasn't that kind of cheating? still, he seems to relent easily enough. he begins to pull of his shirt. then, he settles his hand against the buttons on his pants. before, he looks back at percival, gently grabbing onto his wrist. ] What about you?
Don't tell me .... [ !!! ] You need help?! [ is he too drunk??
[ After getting exactly the reaction he'd hoped for, which is, to catch Vane so off-guard that the other man loses control and makes an embarrassment of himself, Percival actually throws his head back and laughs. He laughs, and while it's rare to see such an unbridled sight of mirth, he's also drunk enough that he's a bit disoriented, and he almost loses his balance on Vane's lap.
he catches himself with his free hand on Vane's shoulder. ] What's not fair, idiot? [ He grins, apparently incredibly happy to have taken ahold of the metaphorical reigns, feeling his own blood race with want as he squeezes tighter and feels the shape of Vane's cock above his trousers. He continues doing this while Vane begins to remove his shirt, eagerly grabbing an eyeful of the muscled torso underneath. He doesn't stop the teasing even when Vane clearly makes a move to try and remove his pants, only faltering when Vane implies that he can't disrobe himself. ]
Ngg-- I'm perfectly capable! [ Now, he finally pulls away and stops tormenting poor Vane, making a move to shift into an easier position to remove his own garments, but he really just ends up... flopping onto the bed on his stomach.
the fact that percival would go out of his way to touch him like this. stranger even, the context, or the fact that this may have been the first time he's ever seen the other knight laugh so freely. jovial. genuinely satisfied with himself over his actions. no, perhaps, the latter not so much. but, it's enough where even vane in his inebriated state, finds himself staring for too long. his eyes widened...
that is, before he refocuses back on the touch. percival's hands are warm enough that he swears he feels the heat that emanates from it. but, that probably isn't entirely the case. he knows the heat he feels isn't... just percival. he finds himself swallowing hard as he feels percival tightly outline his length.
he's about to open his mouth to say something, but then...
there percival goes. part of vane watches with impatience. he had always been a restless individual and in times where his desires ran high, he finds it is more apparent than ever. but, while percival flops over, vane now reaches over. ] This is why you should have just been honest, Percy.
[ but, he doesn't look at all mocking or exasperated. instead, he smiles a little, as he reaches over to .... roll him over.
he half-succeeds and it's here, he begins to help percival undress. once again, he finds himself oddly ... fascinated with touching the other male's skin. but, maybe more than that....he does want to get back at him a little. he presses the palms of his hand against percival's chest once more. this time pressing closer, he presses his thigh against percival's leg as well as he draws close to him. he tugs a little on his hair as he leans in to ...
[ The way he falls down on the bed so suddenly leaves him feeling pretty disoriented, but the joy and satisfaction he got from making Vane momentarily lose his composure was worth it. He's still grinning a bit when Vane essentially helps him roll over, though he inhales sharply when he realizes that Vane is helping him undress.
And grows further distracted when he allows himself to get a good look at Vane. And for the first time, a really good look at Vane. He's always been aware of his body, in an abstract way. In the way he'd refer to his friend as an oaf with all brawn and no brains, but it's as if he's beholding the image of well-toned perfection right now. The thought leaves him even more desirous and just a little insecure.
Not that he can linger on that thought for long, as Vane begins to explore him with increased vigor, making him grow painfully stiff between his thighs and impatient.
The feel of wet tongue against the side of his lips. It's— it's very Vane, at very least, and he's drunk and horny enough that it doesn't bother him as much as it should. Which is probably sad. But it's still disorienting enough that Percival scowls and presses his hands against Vane's chest, trying to push him away, just for a moment. ]
You impatient—! Let me finish undressing! [ He will, at the very least, attempt to wiggle out of the rest of his pants and undergarments. His shirt is half unbuttoned now, anyway. ]
[ there's a certain lack of control and restraint that vane exhibits. to begin with, he was always more of a feelings over rationale type. he's never been very disciplined in this regard despite being a knight, and it shows in the way he touches percival. there's no secondary considerations. just a carnal desire he wants satisfied, even if... he still can't quite comprehend it.
percival's body is different than his own. it's the same in some respects, but the feel of his leaner muscles, the way his body is thinner and his waist more defined than his own— his fingers slide lower as he tries to get a feel for these subtle distinctions. but, then he feels a shove, and: ] Oof...
[ he's pushed back further if just for being taken off-guard, and it's here...
he just blinks owlishly. as if his brain is trying to catch up with what percival was doing? but, then he starts undressing himself completely and vane finds that he's a bit flushed. and... for a while he just stares. mouth slightly agape?? though, it's soon followed by a shocked: ] Percy undressed himself?!
[ why he's so surprised is a mystery. was it because he thought percival wouldn't? or that he was incapable?
still, it takes vane a while to recover, even with how ... aroused he is.
but, like following this train of curiosity, he discovers his hand already moving to take hold of percival's length. at first, his fingers touch his shaft ... almost delicately. that is, before he wraps his fingers around it. ] Uwah, you're...
[ Surprisingly, it's Vane acting exactly like he usually would, simply in a different context, that makes it so easy for Percival to continue pressing forward, attempting to see just how many boundaries they could cross before...
before what? Before he reached his limit?
With furrowed brows, he watches Vane curiously reaches towards him and... wraps his fingers around him. When Vane points out the obvious like that, as if it's not supposed to be obvious, he finds himself growing embarrassed again. ]
Yes?! Is there a problem...?! It's not something I can help!
[ He thought he'd made it clear that they were drugged?! He shivers at the other's touch, wrapping his arms around Vane's neck and forcibly drawing him close, pulling them further down the mattress. Percival buries his face in the crook of Vane's broad shoulders and inhales sharply, enjoying the warmth and weight of the other man as he begins to drag his hands down Vane's back. ]
[ is that defensiveness? embarrassment? vane's mind is a little too fuzzy to read between those lines. though, admittedly, even outside of his drunken state, percy had always been a mystery...?? ] Tthere's no need to be so mad, Percy!
[ but, it gets an easygoing chuckle out of him. especially as percival draws himself closer. the touch tickles a little. especially, when he feels the fingers that slide against his back. while it isn't as if vane was very hesitant, he finds himself weirdly validated by these physical cues. if anything, they further edged him on.
he begins pumping his hand over percival's length. it's a steady rhythm. almost as if vane were testing the waters, and in a lot of ways he was. after all, he wasn't sure if percival liked it? ... liked this? which may have been a late afterthought all things considered, but he liked pleasing people by nature, and this wasn't any different. he wanted percival to like it. genuinely. drugs at work or not. except, was that genuine anymore?? vane isn't sure, but he's not about to get into those nuances.
instead, he whispers softly to the other knight: ] I'm also... the same. [ i.e. hard.
he's about to say they're matching, but he... holds back. ]
[ He doesn't expect such a foolish (and obvious thing) out of Vane's mouth to put him more at ease, but it does. It's reassuring to know that he isn't the only one dealing with this nearly painful yearning, even though it makes logical sense for that to be true.
It takes a lot of trust for Percival to be completely comfortable and vulnerable with someone like this. He hasn't allowed himself to let completely go just yet, still has a reservation or two about crossing this type of boundary with Vane, but--
But it is Vane. He trusts Vane with his life, even if it is unlikely that the other man will ever let him live this down. He shivers and moans softly within the other man's hold, tilting his hips towards him in an effort to draw out more of that feeling. ]
Then we should do something about it... [ He says softly, taking a deep breath and suddenly easing himself away from Vane's hold.
It's not entirely clear what he's doing yet, worming his away out from underneath Vane's weight and growing warmer as he eases his way to the edge of the bed, and then, to the floor. ]
Just... don't say anything, idiot. Keep your mouth shut.
[ He's now kneeling on the floor and tugging on Vane's arm so that he sits back up, positioning himself between Vane's legs. ]
[ even drunk, there's a part of him that expects a threat or another firm-handed shove, but then it doesn't come. still, he remains with an eye closed for a few seconds longer than he needs, before he adjusts to the fact that: percy isn't hitting him?? instead, percy goes at another angle entirely.
owlishly, vane blinks a few times as he watches him rise from beneath him. there are obviously a lot of question, but vane does his best to keep up with the sudden shift in positions. when he feels the tug to sit back up, vane reluctantly does so. murmuring out a small complaint as a dull sense of dizziness seems to settle in.
he steadies himself again, this time by placing a gentle hand on percy's head. ] Eh? But, you said we'd do something about it? Don't you think you should explain to me what you're... ? [ doing between my legs, he wants to say, but instead he's kind of caught up in the sight of percy in that position?
it's a little out of place, he thinks. but the idea is more ticklish than anything else. ] D-don't push yourself. [ says vane, despite obviously kind of anticipating it. he find himself shaking his leg a bit. half anxious and half expectant. especially, as he moves himself closer, his hand now moving to touch the back of percival's head. ]
Even now, you have no idea how to stop talking, do you? [ Percival looks back up to Vane with what appears to be the odd mixture of amusement and annoyance on his face. This appearance is deceptive, however, as his eyes have darkened with interest and the flush on his cheeks tells a different story.
His head feels dizzy from intoxication— not completely due to the alcohol they’d consumed, either. Though he’s insulted Vane many times before in various iterations about his training regimen, his demeanor, his scent, he is nothing but appreciative through his actions at the moment. He traces the muscles along Vane’s inner thighs, first with his fingertips and then with a trail of light nips.
He doesn’t seem to be in any hurry, despite his earlier impatience and persistence. Likely because he’s enjoying this level of control over his typically troublesome friend. Still, he leans slightly into Vane’s touch, gingerly wrapping his fingers around the base of his cock and leaning down to experimentally swirl his tongue along the tip. ]
[ it's not entirely false, and it's why vane can't completely stop himself from giving a light airy sort of laugh. as always percy had that certain characteristic prickliness that defined him, and yet in contrast to his words, his touch is feathery. soft and tender enough to make him feel this odd swell of affection. while normally he felt this in terms of their camaraderie and bond, tonight it's a little different. the flush of skin, the delicate way percy's fingers move from his inner thigh...
they're all endearing in a way that vane isn't used to seeing percy. his grip against the back of percival's head loosens a little, his fingers running through percy's hair, only stiffening a little as he holds back the increasing sense of arousal he feels. vane had always been the restless sort, but he finds the wait almost painful ...
percy was definitely teasing him, right?? it's a sudden realization that's probably only made entirely in vain. especially as he feels percy's tongue against the tip of his cock. it's warmer than he expects, and in spite of himself, he leans forward a little, the hand on the back of percy's head moving to percy's chin. with his thumb, he rubs his lower lip.
even vane doesn't entirely realize his own desperation for the contact and his face reddens with the thought that he could want something this much. something so physical and intimate, no less. this is only amplified as he presses himself further against percy's lips. ]

that is, before he refocuses back on the touch. percival's hands are warm enough that he swears he feels the heat that emanates from it. but, that probably isn't entirely the case. he knows the heat he feels isn't... just percival. he finds himself swallowing hard as he feels percival tightly outline his length.
he's about to open his mouth to say something, but then...
there percival goes. part of vane watches with impatience. he had always been a restless individual and in times where his desires ran high, he finds it is more apparent than ever. but, while percival flops over, vane now reaches over. ] This is why you should have just been honest, Percy.

he half-succeeds and it's here, he begins to help percival undress. once again, he finds himself oddly ... fascinated with touching the other male's skin. but, maybe more than that....he does want to get back at him a little. he presses the palms of his hand against percival's chest once more. this time pressing closer, he presses his thigh against percival's leg as well as he draws close to him. he tugs a little on his hair as he leans in to ...
lick the side of percival's mouth. kill me. ]

And grows further distracted when he allows himself to get a good look at Vane. And for the first time, a really good look at Vane. He's always been aware of his body, in an abstract way. In the way he'd refer to his friend as an oaf with all brawn and no brains, but it's as if he's beholding the image of well-toned perfection right now. The thought leaves him even more desirous and just a little insecure.
Not that he can linger on that thought for long, as Vane begins to explore him with increased vigor, making him grow painfully stiff between his thighs and impatient.
The feel of wet tongue against the side of his lips. It's— it's very Vane, at very least, and he's drunk and horny enough that it doesn't bother him as much as it should. Which is probably sad. But it's still disorienting enough that Percival scowls and presses his hands against Vane's chest, trying to push him away, just for a moment. ]
You impatient—! Let me finish undressing! [ He will, at the very least, attempt to wiggle out of the rest of his pants and undergarments. His shirt is half unbuttoned now, anyway. ]

percival's body is different than his own. it's the same in some respects, but the feel of his leaner muscles, the way his body is thinner and his waist more defined than his own— his fingers slide lower as he tries to get a feel for these subtle distinctions. but, then he feels a shove, and: ] Oof...
[ he's pushed back further if just for being taken off-guard, and it's here...
he just blinks owlishly. as if his brain is trying to catch up with what percival was doing? but, then he starts undressing himself completely and vane finds that he's a bit flushed. and... for a while he just stares. mouth slightly agape?? though, it's soon followed by a shocked: ] Percy undressed himself?!
no subject
still, it takes vane a while to recover, even with how ... aroused he is.
but, like following this train of curiosity, he discovers his hand already moving to take hold of percival's length. at first, his fingers touch his shaft ... almost delicately. that is, before he wraps his fingers around it. ] Uwah, you're...
[ hard??? ]
no subject
before what? Before he reached his limit?
With furrowed brows, he watches Vane curiously reaches towards him and... wraps his fingers around him. When Vane points out the obvious like that, as if it's not supposed to be obvious, he finds himself growing embarrassed again. ]
Yes?! Is there a problem...?! It's not something I can help!
[ He thought he'd made it clear that they were drugged?! He shivers at the other's touch, wrapping his arms around Vane's neck and forcibly drawing him close, pulling them further down the mattress. Percival buries his face in the crook of Vane's broad shoulders and inhales sharply, enjoying the warmth and weight of the other man as he begins to drag his hands down Vane's back. ]
no subject
[ but, it gets an easygoing chuckle out of him. especially as percival draws himself closer. the touch tickles a little. especially, when he feels the fingers that slide against his back. while it isn't as if vane was very hesitant, he finds himself weirdly validated by these physical cues. if anything, they further edged him on.
he begins pumping his hand over percival's length. it's a steady rhythm. almost as if vane were testing the waters, and in a lot of ways he was. after all, he wasn't sure if percival liked it? ... liked this? which may have been a late afterthought all things considered, but he liked pleasing people by nature, and this wasn't any different. he wanted percival to like it. genuinely. drugs at work or not. except, was that genuine anymore?? vane isn't sure, but he's not about to get into those nuances.
instead, he whispers softly to the other knight: ] I'm also... the same. [ i.e. hard.
he's about to say they're matching, but he... holds back. ]
no subject
It takes a lot of trust for Percival to be completely comfortable and vulnerable with someone like this. He hasn't allowed himself to let completely go just yet, still has a reservation or two about crossing this type of boundary with Vane, but--
But it is Vane. He trusts Vane with his life, even if it is unlikely that the other man will ever let him live this down. He shivers and moans softly within the other man's hold, tilting his hips towards him in an effort to draw out more of that feeling. ]
Then we should do something about it... [ He says softly, taking a deep breath and suddenly easing himself away from Vane's hold.
It's not entirely clear what he's doing yet, worming his away out from underneath Vane's weight and growing warmer as he eases his way to the edge of the bed, and then, to the floor. ]
Just... don't say anything, idiot. Keep your mouth shut.
[ He's now kneeling on the floor and tugging on Vane's arm so that he sits back up, positioning himself between Vane's legs. ]
no subject
owlishly, vane blinks a few times as he watches him rise from beneath him. there are obviously a lot of question, but vane does his best to keep up with the sudden shift in positions. when he feels the tug to sit back up, vane reluctantly does so. murmuring out a small complaint as a dull sense of dizziness seems to settle in.
he steadies himself again, this time by placing a gentle hand on percy's head. ] Eh? But, you said we'd do something about it? Don't you think you should explain to me what you're... ? [ doing between my legs, he wants to say, but instead he's kind of caught up in the sight of percy in that position?
it's a little out of place, he thinks. but the idea is more ticklish than anything else. ] D-don't push yourself. [ says vane, despite obviously kind of anticipating it. he find himself shaking his leg a bit. half anxious and half expectant. especially, as he moves himself closer, his hand now moving to touch the back of percival's head. ]

His head feels dizzy from intoxication— not completely due to the alcohol they’d consumed, either. Though he’s insulted Vane many times before in various iterations about his training regimen, his demeanor, his scent, he is nothing but appreciative through his actions at the moment. He traces the muscles along Vane’s inner thighs, first with his fingertips and then with a trail of light nips.
He doesn’t seem to be in any hurry, despite his earlier impatience and persistence. Likely because he’s enjoying this level of control over his typically troublesome friend. Still, he leans slightly into Vane’s touch, gingerly wrapping his fingers around the base of his cock and leaning down to experimentally swirl his tongue along the tip. ]
no subject
[ it's not entirely false, and it's why vane can't completely stop himself from giving a light airy sort of laugh. as always percy had that certain characteristic prickliness that defined him, and yet in contrast to his words, his touch is feathery. soft and tender enough to make him feel this odd swell of affection. while normally he felt this in terms of their camaraderie and bond, tonight it's a little different. the flush of skin, the delicate way percy's fingers move from his inner thigh...
they're all endearing in a way that vane isn't used to seeing percy. his grip against the back of percival's head loosens a little, his fingers running through percy's hair, only stiffening a little as he holds back the increasing sense of arousal he feels. vane had always been the restless sort, but he finds the wait almost painful ...
percy was definitely teasing him, right?? it's a sudden realization that's probably only made entirely in vain. especially as he feels percy's tongue against the tip of his cock. it's warmer than he expects, and in spite of himself, he leans forward a little, the hand on the back of percy's head moving to percy's chin. with his thumb, he rubs his lower lip.
even vane doesn't entirely realize his own desperation for the contact and his face reddens with the thought that he could want something this much. something so physical and intimate, no less. this is only amplified as he presses himself further against percy's lips. ]
