Edwyn/Aki - GrandchildrendeannawolSeptember 27 2005, 16:21:49 UTC
He stands in front of the marble dais in the Shrine, a small bundle in his arms. He crooks a finger at the small parcel, pulling the white cloth wrapping it back. Five small, but perfect fingers grasp at his own large finger, wrapping themselves gently around the digit.
He makes cooing noises at the precious gift in his arms, amusing the child with funny noises and silly faces. Grey touched the sides of his hair, dignified but older looking.
The child grabbed a long strand of his hair and pulled. Edwyn laughed and looked up at the flame on the dias.
"Well, beloved... We finally did it. We're grandparents. This fantastically sweet child is our grandson."
Pausing, he cast his mind back over time to the last time he held a child in his arms. It had been after their second son had been born. Aki had looked splendid, glowing after the fact. To be honest, the child had looked exactly like the one he held now.
A pang of sadness captured his heart.
"I wish you could be here to share this, beloved. I had to share it with you."
As a tear rode down his cheek, he felt warmth and love surround him and the child and knew that his beloved was watching from his place beyond the physical realm, stolen from him a few years too early to share fully in this magic moment.
Yozak Conrad - Sleep TogetherdeannawolSeptember 27 2005, 16:59:11 UTC
Yozak looked up at the brunette from his seat at the side of the room. The captain was dancing with someone else. Their bodies twirling around each other with such delicate beauty. Long limbs stepping gracefully around each other.
Desire and alcohol moved around his body as he stands, walking over to his commanding officer.
'Now there would be a concept...' Yozak thought to himself. 'I already know that I would go to the ends of the world for him. Anything he asks I would gladly do. But how far could it go?'
Yozak coughs politely and attracts Conrad's attention.
"Mind if I cut in?"
Conrad smiles, his brown eyes glinting. Yozak took the brunette's hand and started moving around the dance floor. His hips were tight against Conrad's as the song tempo changed, fast to slow but steady. Yozak's lips moved to speak the words...
"If we sleep together Will you like me better If we come together We'll go down forever If we sleep together Will I like you better If we come together Prove it now or never"
Conrad stopped moving, looking up at the redhead. His eyes went wide as he heard the words.
"Yozak..."
The rest of the words died on his tongue as Yozak captured his lips with his own. Conrad could barely remember to breathe as his best friend kissed him. Blinking and coming to his senses, he realises what is happening and kisses back, grabbing Yozak's head and holding it there.
Yozak pulls back gasping for breath. It wasn't the reaction he had expected. It was better... much better.
Leaning in, he whispered in Conrad's ear.
"Prove it, now or never!"
Conrad's face flushed as he took Yozak's hand and dragged him from the room. Outside the door, he spun Yozak until his back was against the wall, kissing him deeply.
Edwyn/Aki - After the balldeannawolSeptember 28 2005, 10:44:25 UTC
"Shush, they'll hear us."
Edwyn giggled. Aki smiled, sneaking a kiss from his fiancé. Edwyn looked shocked. Well, it lasted for about two seconds before he returned the favour with vigour.
Tongues fought and fingers intertwined as Edwyn pushed Aki back against the wall. Euphoria swirled over the pair and young emotions fought a losing battle against desire and physical reactions.
Aki moaned as a hand cupped him. Deft fingers moved swiftly to undo annoying laces and push back fabric. A hand pushed the binding material down, freeing his growing member from it's confines. The same hand started manipulating the flesh is a slow steady pace, as if they had all the time in the world.
"Dyn..." Aki breathed, barely making a sound.
His violet pupils dihilated with desire, he looked at his lover. Strong hands and stronger heart, he loved this man in front of him. It had been four days, three hours and sixteen minutes since he had been proposed to and four days, three hours and sixteen minutes since he had accepted. His head was still spinning. Edwyn hadn't given him time to think since then and he was glad.
It had been a blur... His mother had found out and planned this impromptu ball, with noble men and women from across the land. They had been paraded around like puppets for the evening. They had only just managed to escape from the hoard. And now they were here...
A faster pace was set and Aki closed his eyes, enjoying the feelings that he was surrounded by.
Edwyn's hand moved, leaving him wanting. He was prepared to cry out in loss when he realised that he wasn't being kissed anymore. Aki opened his eyes, looking where Edwyn's face had been. There was nothing there. He dropped his gaze until he saw the top of Edwyn's head, his long hair hiding his face from view.
A flash of pink and he was in heaven as a tongue licked at the focus of his attention. Damned if that man hadn't found his weak spot and was teasing it for all he was worth. The tongue flicked over the length and Aki's knees turned to jelly, almost dropping him on top of his lover.
Aki struggled to find balance, reaching out to grab a wall, a door, anything.
CRASH!
Something fell causing a commotion of noise. Edwyn appeared not to notice, content of the task at hand. Aki didn't care at that moment in time. Every drop of attention he had was on that talented mouth and the sensations that it was supplying.
Suddenly... Light!
The door was thrown open and a shriek of disbelief filled his ears.
Sensations stopped and Aki had trouble focusing for a second. He blinked and found himself looking up at his Mother.
"Alarik, what do you think you are doing...?"
Aki couldn't even start to think of words to excuse the position that he had been caught in. Furthermore he didn't want to. If he was old enough to be engaged, he was old enough to do what he wanted with his fiancé.
"You should be in bed. So should you Edwyn. You know you have many things to take care of tomorrow. We have weddings to plan, society events to attend. It's not every day that one of our family get's engaged..."
His mother was practically dragging him from the cupboard where he had been hiding. He barely had time to retie his trousers. He looked at Edwyn longingly. Edwyn smiled back.
Edwyn leaned in close and whispered one word... "Later!"
Aki smiled. If that was the reward for waiting... He could put up with waiting... But not for too long.
IC!Adel and IC!Ani: "Hello Dreamlover"genius_anissinaSeptember 29 2005, 04:01:40 UTC
"It was wonderful... And terrible. It was so hot and yet, it was so sweet. But now I can't even look at him. I passed him in the hallway on the way here and all I could think about was "Hello, Dream lover!" Oh, Cheri, what will I do?"
Anissina was whispering in Cheri's ear as they sat in the meeting. Her voice didn't carry any further than the ex-Maou.
"Well, Nisa, you should tell me exactly why you're so flustered... It must have been a wonderful dream."
Cheri settled in closer, her eyes watching for anyone who came too closely.
"Okay then... It all started in the gardens. I was sitting under a tree and he came along and sat beside me. I couldn't really do anything but he grabbed me and kissed me. It was so good that it made my toes curl. He unbuttoned my dress and then started to kiss me, moving down and down, his hands were finding every sensitive spot. His lips and tongue were driving me crazy. I couldn't move, but I didn't want to either. His head dropped between my legs and he licked and he licked and I could help but scream out in pleasure."
Anissina looks around quickly to see where everyone is... She catches the eye of Adelbert, blushes and resumes whispering.
"And then somehow, we were magically transported to a boat and he was in me. It felt so good, Cheri. And he definately knew what to do. It was one constant pleasure. Just riding from one way to the next. He came and I could feel it. Then he moved up to lie beside me, just holding me... It was wonderful. But then the octopus took him..."
Gun/Rad - A Shared DancedeannawolSeptember 29 2005, 11:38:21 UTC
Their eyes met across the room and they smiled at each other. It was polite but deep enough for both of them. Günter's eyes flicked across the room to the other Conrad. He was still holding Yozak as they danced. Gunter sighed. The hopes that possibly he could have had a shot at the Captain dashed by the look the pair shared.
Maybe just for tonight, the double would be close enough. He approached, tapping the man on the shoulder. The brown hair turned, meeting his eyes. Polite words, overly so, were exchanged and they moved to the dance floor, close but still a respectable distance apart. Gunter's eyes kept flicking to the other Conrad, the one laughing and smiling with the red haired soldier.
He felt Rad pull back from him slightly, bringing his attention back to his dance partner.
"I'm not him." The words cut him. "I know!" Gunter admitted it. "I'm not him!" The words more adamant now. Gunter looked him in the eye. "I know!" "And I'm not going to try!" Rad spoke the words clearly and precisely.
Gunter's head was spinning. There was an offer inherent in the words, just waiting for the claiming.
"I know!"
Was that all he could say...?
"I could hurt you. I'm not always nice..."
The admission cost him nothing. They would all find that out anyway.
Gunter looked down again, his words mumbled.
"Good!"
Taking his hand, Rad led the older man from the ball room, smiling in victory and planning the evenings entertainment.
Con/Yoz - On The BeachdeannawolSeptember 29 2005, 11:40:32 UTC
The hot sun beat down on the two men as they fell to the sand. Water ran in rivulets from their body, a result of their recent activities in the sea. They felt cool and relaxed as they lay there, panting and laughing.
Yozak rolled over onto his side, propping his head up with a hand. He looked down at his friend. The beautiful face, crowned in brown and highlighted in beautiful hazel brown eyes. He couldn't resist any more. He leaned in and kissed those wonderfully soft lips. A tongue flicked out and licked his own lips, a tongue that was quickly captured and teased. He felt Conrad move beneath him, moving up until he was facing his friend. The kiss became almost like a battle of wills, fighting for dominance.
Conrad moves his hand, capturing the red haired man and pulling him closer. He moved until their bodies were touching, his hand dropping down again between the taller man's legs and massaging gently. Yozak moaned into the embrace, closing his eyes and thrusting his hips against Conrad's palm. His kisses were getting needier, more wanting... Yozak dropped his hand, copying Conrad's actions. He could already feel the throbbing hardness rising up to meet him. Conrad bit at his lip, pulling it gently.
Yozak pushed at the man's wet underwear, exposing him to the world. His hand flying back to the erect member. Conrad moaned and spoke breathless words in Yozak's ear.
"We should stop..."
Yozak growled at the suggestion. There was no one around for miles. No one would disturb them. And apart from all else, he didn't want to lose Conrad's hand, not now, not ever.
"Never..."
Yozak's words were harsh as he dipped his head to lick at the sea-salt flavoured nubs of his friend, his lover.
"But last time you complained about the sand getting into certain places..."
Conrad's hand slowed as he got distracted by the multitalented attack on his sensitive skin. Yozak stopped and looked at Conrad.
"I'll suffer it... "
Without another word, he resumed his attack, driving his Captain closer to completion and insanity.
Cheri, Cheri, Dan Hiri, Raven - ReflectionsdeannawolSeptember 29 2005, 11:41:54 UTC
He stood on the balcony of her room, looking over the garden. Dark shadows crept through the garden as the breeze blew the lanterns. He was back, through whatever means. Shinou knew what brought him back but he was thankful. The world had moved on while he had gone. There were now two Cecelies but his, his was still as beautiful as the day that he had walked out on her. He had tried to capture a wild bird and he could not stay. He would have broken those wings, possibly too badly to ever mend. He regretted it, but at the same time it was necessary. She had Raven now. He always knew that she would fly to him eventually. He could hardly blame her. A fellow Mazoku who wouldn't age and die in a blink of her eye...
Then there was the other Cheri. Broken, battered but still beautiful despite it all. She had her own Raven. Strange how they all end up like that. Fate, Karma, Kismet... Whatever they called it, these days. He had to admit that he wouldn't mind another tumble between those satin thighs but Cheri was happy now, and her boys had grown up to be strong, independent boys. Conrad had grown too. Knowing his own mind and his own body. He had seen the looks between his son and the young boy they had once saved.
As much as he hated to admit, he was a little superfluous. He lifted the bottle in his hand up, wondering whether to take a sip or not... Best not. He always got maudlin when he drank alone. A smile crossed his face. He could always find some company. Hell, those maids looked like they could do with a little cheering up. A plan in his mind and a bottle in his hand, he set off to find some entertainment.
Yuuri/Shinou - At The WakedeannawolSeptember 29 2005, 11:44:21 UTC
"Shinou-san, I never did get a chance to talk to you." The Maou began, finally managing to extricate himself from all the official conversations he was forced to endure.
The Shinou looked up at Yuuri, his expression masked.
Yuuri had to admit to being slightly afraid of this man. His very presence unsettled him whenever he was less than five paces away. Raw power emanated from his core. Swallowing, he continued.
"Has anyone thanked you?"
The question caused the Shinou to pause. He could not catch the expression of surprise that chased its way across his face.
"No." He replied simply.
"Thank you," Yuuri said. "You and your double risked a lot to try to revive my double and return him to us. I am grateful that you tried."
The Shinou looked at the young boy as he nodded and walked away. It had been a very, very long time since anyone thanked him for simply doing his job... It was nice. He smiled to himself.
'Maybe I picked the right person as Maou, after all.'
Rad / Jen - At The WakedeannawolSeptember 30 2005, 01:21:47 UTC
"I don't see why I have to be here!" Rad tried to extricate his arm from the crook of Jennifers elbow. "It's polite, Rad-kun." She said, repeating it for the n-th time. "And I would like some support. It's not every day that one sees the likeness of her own child die before her."
Rad relented. He recognized that it must be hard for her, but couldn't quite bring himself to care. However, she had been nice to him in the past so he returned the favour.
He watched the little groups interact and acted like the sociable guest, exchanging small talk that made his skin crawl. He swallowed as Jennifer steered him over to Wolfram, little brother Wolfram. Tears were not evident on his face, but his cheeks were clean in all the right places to suggest that he had been crying recently. Jennifer scooped him up into her arms and Rad could not help but want to do the same.
"It'll be okay, kiddo, really it will." He started, actually feeling something for the young lad. "We're all here for you."
He knew it wasn't his little brother, but it didn't really matter to him. This was still his Wolfram.
