Leaving Zander to his own devices often led to bizarre taxidermy creations, or other equally deranged hobbies. This evening, he’d become enamored with a YouTube video entitled Extreme Bubble Gum Tricks, and the sudden overwhelming desire to one-up all of those tricks overtook him

“It doesn’t matter what you’re in the mood to do, only what I’m in the mood to do,” he reminded, equally stubborn as Devin.
Of course he wouldn’t outright give in to Devin, but he offered up the potential for a reward to see if that would hurry him up. “If you’re a good boy, just maybe I’ll give you what you want. When you’re done chewing, of course.” Another deviant smirk, this time followed with a slow bite of his own bottom lip, one of his fangs piercing the skin. He let the blood well up there for Devin to see and smell before swiping the droplet away with his tongue.

That much he could stubbornly ignore, if he had to, out of sheer spite; he didn't need his hands free to be difficult.
"Yeah? Last I checked even you can't make me chew something if I don't want to." He pointed out with a smug expression; they were very likely to go back and forth on the matter until sunrise at that rate and he was perfectly fine with that...the sunlight was one advantage he was always going to have over Zander.
Unfortunately Zander had his own, and it was incredibly unfair the way the vampire used it with that little display that, even if he loathed the fact, made his stomach twist in the needy state.
He really hated Zander for that, most of the time he was moderately okay with how damn impossible the vampire was, how childish, how he barked orders at him that Devin mostly ignored, grumbled over pointless things and treated him entirely expendable very close to all of the time; but all those things weren't nearly as annoying as having that blood used against him.
"Fine," he muttered, "But you can't exactly hold my hands for that, genius."

“Last I checked, you don’t need your hands to chew gum,” Zander pointed out, a bit mockingly. He drug Devin’s wrists away from the couch and crossed them against the front of Devin’s chest instead, holding them in place there with one palm. It gave him a weaker grip on his ghoul’s wrists, but this way he was allowed to reach down for another piece of gum himself with the intent to shove it between Devin’s lips.
...but he stopped just out of reach as a wave of suspicion hit him. Devin might try to bite his fingers or something, wouldn’t he? That’s just like something he’d do!
“Don’t you try anything,” he warned with narrowed eyes.

There was a thin line to push, as tempting as it was, when it came to the vampire. Zander was by no means stable and when his mood hit too badly he got violent, and not the sort of amusing violent that Devin had a sick little interest in himself either.
"Try what? Afraid I might bite you?" His eyebrows lifted with the words, a smug hint to his expression. "You really want to put your fingers in my mouth?"
Clearly Zander was debating that himself, and oh how he enjoyed stirring things up and pushing some of those buttons.

“I’ll put my fingers anywhere I want,” came his defiant reply… but despite his words, he didn’t move his hand any closer. Any other night, maybe he’d have shoved his fingers up in Devin’s mouth anyway, but this evening he’d already annoyed his ghoul far too much. Devin might actually bite him if he had the chance, and Zander wanted to protect his precious fingers if possible.
He’d just have to improvise a different solution.
Careful not to let that piece of gum touch his tongue because of just how horrid it was taste, Zander held it instead between his teeth, then tilted his face forward so Devin would be able to take it out with his own lips.
This way, if Devin bit him, he’d be close enough to bite right back, and he’d make it hurt.

Honestly it was hilarious; all that trouble over a few pieces of gum and both of them being too stubborn to give in easily. It was never boring though, that was very much the truth.
After Zander had figured out what he assumed to be the best solution, looking rather pleased about it no less, Devin simply leaned forward enough to where he could have taken that gum.
Could have.
What he did instead was use his tongue to shove the entire piece into Zander's mouth before he dropped his head back against the couch to get out of the vampire's reach before the reaction that was bound to follow.
Zander only thought he'd won; he had to have known by then just how hard fought those little battles always turned out to be.

Zander spit out that gum in the general direction of Devin’s magazines, then let go of Devin’s wrists so he could drag his fingernails against his tongue to try to scrape the bubble gum flavor out of his mouth. It was the absolute worst thing he’d ever tasted in his entire unlife, he couldn't imagine anything more putrid than this sickly sweet pink ball of death he'd just hacked up.
Oh, payback would come later. But first he had to wash out his mouth the best way he knew how. He lunged for Devin’s nearest arm with every intention to sink his fangs in.
Obviously he needed something to wash that wretched, disgusting, vile taste out of his mouth.

"Seriously, it can't be that bad." He pointed out to the sheer amount of torment Zander was playing up being in. Devin shook his head and grumbled about his magazine but had little time to do much else before Zander made that lunge.
He yelped in surprise and squirmed; those fangs were more than a little alluring in some spots but others, specifically ones not really made for that sort of abuse, it just hurt like hell.
And not the sort of hurt that he preferred, needless to say.
Devin shoved a hand towards Zander's forehead but it was useless, getting him to budge wasn't going to happen but he tried none the less just to get rid of the painful burn that bite caused.

Both hands shot up to grasp hard at Devin’s neck, his nails digging in - using restraint enough not to strangle the other man to death, but hard enough to make it abundantly clear that Devin had gone too far.
“I ought to lock you out for a few weeks,” he growled with a glare. “See just how desperate you are to do what you're told then. What do you think?” Starving Devin of blood seemed the best punishment because he’d asked Zander for it earlier.
