Word a Day Drabble:: 3 :: Tenipuri [D1]

May 07, 2005 16:01

It's earlier than usual, but here's today's Drabble. S'cause I have other things I want to write today, and plus, after my mommy made me peel shrimp (they were dead but still...!) today, I had a plot bunny. FYI, there is actually a dish in Shanghai (or was is Guangzhou) where you eat live shrimp dipped in sauce (hot sauce I'm not so sure about, but why not). NiouYagyuu, just because D1 is such messed up sweet crazy bipolar love.

It is Niou's birthday when Niou drags Yagyuu who looks like Niou into a Chinese resturant and orders a table for one, grinning at the flustered waiter and licking his lips slowly. Niou who is really Yagyuu smirks because he is Niou but steps up squinting against the light and changes that to a table for two because he is Yagyuu; the waiter is relieved and they are seated per order by the window, but not before Niou reaches for the waiter's ass and misses.

The waiter isn't going to come back, Niou who is Yagyuu thinks while he absently flattens his hair and watches Niou who is Niou immerse himself in the lists of foods and drink they can order despite being underage. Niou who is Niou looks up at Yagyuu and a thought crosses his eyes before he says "your treat" and yells, which brings the waiter scurrying over. A few passes and some suggestive lip-licking later, Niou is greedily downing his sake and Yagyuu wonders why his tea smells alcoholic, but since it is Niou's birthday he says "gambei" and drinks anyway.

Niou ordered the food so Yagyuu is suprised when the waiter sets a dish of hot sauce and a jar of moving gasping dying shrimp on the table and announces their appetizer has arrived. Niou's tongue disappears as he takes his chopsticks and dips one small shrimp before biting off its head and spitting out the eyes the legs the shell, working his way down until all that's left is a tail. Yagyuu watches with a sort of morbid fascination, because he knows Niou loves shrimp, but not enough to eat them live.

Two more heads join the one on Niou's plate before Niou looks up at Niou who is Yagyuu and says "try one" like he's requesting, but since it's his birthday really isn't. Niou who is Yagyuu makes a face and tries to decline, though the seventy percent that is Yagyuu knows it is hopeless and the thirty percent that is Niou is screaming for a bite. Niou hears the thirty percent and grins wickedly before he picks up another shrimp and dips it heavily. "Say ahh" he tells Niou who is Yagyuu before he forces Yagyuu's mouth open and drops the entire prawn in.

Yagyuu's mouth snaps closed and he tries to swallow but the little shrimp legs dancing on his tongue make him want to throw up and his eyes are watering before the thirty fourty now fifty percent Niou makes him bite down. Juice and paste flood his mouth and he is tasting fish the sea and it tastes horrible but he chews anyway and spits out the shell eyes head on his plate while Niou who is Niou and not any percent Yagyuu watches with a smirk. They wait in baited silence while Yagyuu downs his tea laced with drink and glares at Niou, before picking up his chopsticks and reaching for another shrimp.

Later that night, when Yagyuu kisses Niou, he can't help but notice Niou tastes like shrimp like fish like sea and even when his throat constricts his mouth closing instinctively, Niou's tongue dancing across his makes him want to throw up and he almost does, but kisses Niou again anyway.

okay, so i stretched the challenge by only focusing on the 'without preparation' part...
