Guns and Roses [AU: Yusuke X Kurama]

[EDDE]

Fox:
Oh dear... As Yusuke spoke, the fox couldn't help but picture the scene. A strong look of concentration on his face, Yusuke would have stared at the 'over medium-high' instruction like the recipe was insulting him on purpose; only to throw his hands in the air with a loud 'fuck it!' And set the stove to high.

Kurama snickered, hiding the noise with a polite mouthful of noodles.

At that setting the food would have started to burn very quickly, and Yusuke would be too stubborn to turn down the heat, so he'd just stir it faster in hopes of salvaging the meal. Shuichi couldn't stop his laugh this time; his food swallowed he looked at Yusuke and cleared his throat to stop the sound. "Over medium-high is a setting between medium and high. Once the shrimp is cooked the sauce is added and you turn the setting to low and leave it to simmer."

EDDE:
He pouted a bit at the laughter, but it seemed to lighten his mood as that serious look that had drawn across his face changed. It quickly grew confused. "But that's just medium high," he argued pointlessly, blinking a bit after the moment it took for him to realize his misunderstanding of the word 'over'. Finally, he laughed out his own stupidity. "Well, it's still a stupid way to say it," he concluded lightly.

After a few more bites of his own, he turned his attention to the hallway, having a need to rub at the bridge of his nose as he recognized the offensive smell he'd set through the house all over again when it seemed to be getting stronger as sat out. "And as for that frilly crap," he finally mentioned in a slightly heavier tone through that same embarrassment. "I didn't have any roses, but it has petals in it so it seemed like a good idea the time. And anyway, my mom tore the place apart while I was gone. The smell was helping, but now I remember why I don't like that stuff." It wasn't quite giving him a headache, but it sure Hell was threatening to.

Fox:
"It is a very... potent smell," he agreed, trying not to scrunch his nose in a childish manner. "Shall we be rid of it then?" He would never admit aloud that he would have preferred the stench of garbage; he would have been able to ignore that much easier. However, a sudden playful smile came to his lips. "Homemade dinner," or at least an attempted one, "eaten by candlelight, and a trail of flower petals leading to your bed."

Kurama placed his elbows on the table, his fingers laced and his chin resting on top of them. With a flirty gleam in his eyes he added, "Is there a movie next? Or should we skip it?"

EDDE:
He simply nodded toward the question of the potently spiced petal mixture just before finishing off the remaining broth in his bowl. He set it down as a tilt hit his head when redhead's stance shifted. There was a huff in his breath that displaced his bangs a bit through that same embarrassment that had rolled through him each time the things he'd done were brought up. Although the reason for the embarrassment changed swiftly through the look he was given and the last bit of what he had to say. Somehow in his upset over his screw up he'd missed the redhead mentioning that he'd seen where the trail led, so that didn't help the feeling.

He pouted a bit despite the heat that quite visibly traveled through him at the offer. That look Shuichi was giving him was almost intoxicating, and yet... He wasn't fishing for compliments but stating a rather obvious truth on the subject through his own opinion. "C'mon Shuichi. I screwed this up royally, and you know it. This dinner totally blows," he chuckled out, sounding a bit defeated for the crappy job he'd done. Although there actually was a movie he'd pulled out.

Oddly, though mostly as a derivative of his own thoughts on his attempts, he felt like the other teen was trying to humor him, and didn't think there was any need for that. Standing with a light smile, he collected the broom and dustpan to go and fix yet another thing he'd done that had turned into more of a nuisance than anything good, almost pointedly. If anything, he needed to fix at least this screw up first. Especially if the smell was bugging them both.

Fox:
Kurama chuckled and leaned down to blow out the candles. He still found the thought quite endearing. "The food, perhaps," he agreed with a slight nod before finishing off his own bowl. "Though in truth, I really don't mind it." The fox stood to gather their bowls with the intention of throwing them away... And get a better peek at the mess Yusuke managed to make.

"Besides, the night is far from over, is it not? Our date has hardly been ruined."

EDDE:
The detective returned the chuckle through a nod as he made his way into the hall to clean up the mess. "True." He agreed lightly.

The kitchen was a disaster area. While he'd tossed out any trash that he used when cooking, the mess primarily consisted of the actual cooking mess. The stove was covered in splattered sauce. In fact, a good deal of the closest counter to the stove, the wall, and even a small portion of the floor showed those obvious signs of the boiling of the sauce having gotten out of control.

The pots were piled on either side of the sink, saucepan with burned sauce still stuck to the bottom, noodle pan still looking a bit slimy despite having been rinsed out. The pan that Yusuke had substituted for a wok was on its own side, covered in water to soak at the bits of horribly charred remains of the stir fry that clung to it.

A couple improperly boiled stale noodles, perhaps the one part of the meal that wasn't his fault for how long ago they'd been bought, lined the sink from where he'd strained the pot. Bits of food that had escaped him during the process of cooking sat about variously close to the stove area. One could tell there had been the attempt to start cleaning the of it, as the burner he'd used to boil the water for their noodles was completely devoid of mess, but that was as far as it went, most likely interrupted the other teen's arrival.

The trash was filled with the hard, slimy noodles, bitter smelling burned sauce, and mostly charred stir fry. Several cooking utensils still sat about in various locations about the room, showing off the last of the remains of the chaos the poor boy had experienced in such a very valiant attempt at giving the redhead a good meal.

He walked into the kitchen a few moments after fox, not having had much to pull up in the trail of potpourri he'd left out. He sighed lightly at the mess he'd made as he poured it into the trash and shut the lid securely. "You know," he teased warmly as he looked over the mess for a moment before inevitably landing back on, and rolling over fox all over again. He seemed to be having trouble keeping his eyes from gluing to him, even during his moments of pouting that didn't last as they normally would for the effect the pampered teen had on him. "I didn't let you in here for a reason." He indicated the mess, of course. Although it had mainly had to do with their empty cupboards.

Fox:
Well it wasn't... that bad. The fox looked over the mess and again pictured Yusuke's attempts in the kitchen, and cringed when he thought of the poor teen getting splattered with boiling sauce. The scent of burnt food was strong but not overpowering and he looked over the pan he wasn't sure would survive the terrible burning. "I am aware," he answered smoothly, dropping the disposable bowls in the trash. Kurama enjoyed the feeling of Yusuke's eyes roaming over him and reveled in it for several seconds before turning his attention on the other teen.

Using his height to his advantage, Kurama rested his arms over the other's shoulders and leaned in for a soft kiss that didn't last nearly long enough. "You did not need to go through such trials for me, Yusuke. I am quite happy as it is." The smile he gave Yusuke was warm before he leaned in for another, longer kiss that they could melt into together. Soft suction and gentle nips, playful flicks of the tongue and long laving laps.

EDDE:
Yusuke blinked a bit as the redhead moved to loom over him slightly. A smile softened his features as lips pressed to his, not changing through what he'd had to say this time as he got over his need to deny how much work he'd out into this since it had all been revealed.

"Yea well, I said I would." He offered the explanation as those lips came at him again, falling into their offer and playing back happily as his hands landed on the taller boy's hips and tugged then into a secure grip. The way he'd said it was as if it should be obvious.

As stated, he'd said would. He'd even bragged about how awesome the meal was going to be when he'd been so sure he could handle the cooking. What would it say about him if he hadn't at least tried? Of course, his stubborn nature had him trying probably past the point that it made sense anymore, but that was just how he was.

He needed more practice, but that wasn't something to think about right now. Right now, he was focused on how close Kurama was, and on returning light nips and suckles. He pressed further, niggling his tongue pay the fox's lips and offering that attention to the roof of his mouth that he liked so much.

Fox:
Emerald eyes slid shut as Kurama tilted his head to mold their lips together, breathing through his nose to avoid breaking their very lovely kiss. "Mnha," the tickling of Yusuke's tongue pulled it from his slightly parted lips. His hips shifted forward into the hold, the warmth of the detective's palms easily seeped through his tight jeans. He'd be regretting them soon, he was sure.

The redhead stepped closer, pressing them flush together with a happy sigh. With great reluctance Shuichi pulled back with the hopes of something much better. "Shall I leave a trail of rose petals?" The tease was light, but the offer was genuine. The sweet aroma would mask the lingering scent of potpourri.

EDDE:
He was enjoying the closeness of their kiss, more so as Shuichi moved closer, a warm noise passing through him at the change. He blinked once up at the other as he pulled away from his lips, a soft chuckle on his own. "That's what it's supposed to be, right?"

It took a bit of effort pull his attention away, but his eyes slid toward the hall. "Next time," he offered lightly. "I'll have a better idea of what I'm doing, hm?" It was still a little odd to feel so complaisant, but he'd noticed before the fox had such an effect on him already.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
The fox nodded with an agreeing sound, lifting a hand to the puff of a ponytail to run his fingers through it. As he turned the corner of the kitchen and into the hallway, rose petals formed in the palm of his hand. They were left in a trail down the hallway while playful, half lidded eyes continued to look back to be sure Yusuke was following behind him.

A shiver ran up his spine, feeling Yusuke's eyes on his back and, most likely, on his backside that was tightly framed by his jeans. The closer they got to the room the faster his heartbeat, and the harder it thudded against his chest. Kurama realized, as he entered the room and allowed the sweet-smelling petals to scatter around it and over the bed, that he was nervous. It was frightening and thrilling, the first time all over again.

Sitting on the bed Kurama reached up with both hands and carefully released the knot in his hair to let the crimson strands fall over his back and shoulders in a pretty cascade. He was indeed regretting the tight pants, his excitement of what to come had him partially erect, yet it was clearly seen in his current attire. Still, he reached out with one hand in invitation and with sensual eyes and a sweet purr he said, "Be gentle with me, hm?" The words were said with a playful lilt and a slight curl of his lips.

EDDE:
His head tilted as Kurama pulled his hand into his hair, knowing what it was for, but finding it a rather attractive movement regardless. While the smile that crossed his face resembled the goofy one he got more often, it was softer; appreciative of the teasing look that was offered as he followed, as well as the view of him walking away.

A giddy excitement was rolling through him as they walked the hall, somehow making it seem like a longer trek than it was. Not that he minded, as his eyes were roaming the redhead in front of him and taking in the scene as he led him along with the petals. Hell, it was a lot better than he could think just following a sitting trail of them could be.

His mind was easily set on what they would be doing in the bedroom, sure to be uninterrupted for the first time they were spending such time together. It had his blood racing and his nerves tingling just a bit. A soft puff of air was pressed through upturned lips, a gentle heat having former in the stare that raked over the teen as he sat on his bed and pulled his hair down.

A happy groan wanted to pose past his chest as he looked him over, easily noting the matching affliction to his own. "I think I can manage that," he teased back lightly.

He advanced, leaning down and putting a gentle pressure on the redhead's shoulder to press him into the sheets toward the pillows as he loomed over him, pausing for a moment to take in the sight of him lying over those petals. Another soft huff of air was given of as he crawled over him, lightly guiding his legs apart settle between them. He leaned down all over again, offering a nipping suckle at his lobe as he pulled his fingers through red tresses to spread it further about him. His free hand reached down to tug his shirt up from the grasp his pants had on them and lift it slowly through that same petting exploration seemed to have taken a liking to as he pulled back enough to look him over again. "Frilly or not," he offered warmly, in no way hiding the appreciation his heated gaze held as his eyes wandered while his hands worked. "Roses really suite you, Shuichi."

Fox:
Wrapping his arms loosely around Yusuke's neck, the redhead leaned back with the guidance. The soothing aroma of his beloved plant put the fox at ease, relaxing the bit of tension in his body he hadn't noticed before. Heat came to his cheeks and a slight hitch jumped his breath as he spread his legs to allow Yusuke between them. It was terribly difficult to remain patient when he could so vividly remember the song of his nerves during this particular act.

Shuichi sighed, closing his eyes and tilting his head. Crimson hair was spread across the white bedding and soft petals, giving the appearance of a bloody halo that so perfectly framed the fox. He arched, aiding in the removal of his shirt by raising his arms over his head. Once it was gone the redhead returned his arms around Yusuke's neck. Light petting pulled free a soft puff of air while the words made him hum. "They do," he agreed with a quiet laugh. "They always have."

Long legs curled lazily around Yusuke's waist, pulling him close with rhythmic squeezes. Unwilling to be the only one undressed, Kurama tugged lightly at the others shirt to pull it up and off to toss it away in a flourish.

EDDE:
Warm chocolate returned to emerald pools as he was spoken back to, the petting hand in his hair that was pulled free to aid in the removal of his own shirt joined the one brushing across the pale skin of the redhead's chest. Both drew down in the same tender movement they'd been playing at already, petting and tickling their way down to the button of those jeans. With a gentle flick of his fingers the latch was popped, full digits trailing their way down to offer a small tease down over the bulging fabric; and then at length down thighs as he leaned down and busied his mouth with those same grooming licks and kisses over his neck that he'd enjoyed so much previously.

He was certainly exploring all over again, appreciative of every inch of flesh and fabric he grazed over, as if it were the first time he'd been allowed. "I can't get enough of you," he admitted through a warm groan that more resembled a growl as he neared his jaw in his attentions; a sound that didn't escape him often, but tended to be saved for periods of intense frustration. The sound of it was different though, as he was enjoying this particular bout of frustration immensely.

On their way back up, he offered a set of squeezes that served to pull attention toward the fact that he was getting closer to that destination again through a small massage up his thighs. His attention wasn't so much on drawing Shuichi's, but on focusing on his details as his fingers drew open and further apart through the thickening of those limbs as they traveled.

At the same time as he pulled his face away from the larger teen's neck to replace it with short, sweet kisses to lips, his fingers drew back together and tugged their way inward back to trail far too lightly over that buldge again, his hands finally breaking away from each other. His left hand slid back up the fox's body, unable to resist a quick tickle and pinch against the adorable nub on the way before sliding around his neck and taking a familiar, supportive grasp under his hair at the base of his skull.

His kisses grew into a deeper one, pressed firmly, yet tenderly to seal across the fox's lips through a light tilt of his head. And at the same time, they did he was tugging down his zipper with his dominant hand before it took it's coarse back down his leg, just a bit faster this time as it trailed all the way down and back around himself to the ankle to tug it free from around him and pull it down beside him. As he offered suddenly sharp nips to other teen's lips, covering them with long laving licks, his dominant worked with a bit of amazing grace as it trolled around his waist band, tugging his pants away incredibly smoothly as far as their current position allowed.

This slow, pointed treatment was not Yusuke being gentle as he'd promised. It was him quite happily taking his time in relishing every touch and reaction to said touch as he took stock of the lovely creature below him. Perhaps with a lack of patience the exploratory movements could have been tortuous despite the sensual imprint left against Shuichi's skin, but even with his own eagerness to continue driving a sharpness into his nerves, the raven-haired boy was in no way in a hurry. And he was certainly putting good use toward the thorough schooling he'd been given so far by the redhead.

Fox:
Kurama's breath shuddered and soft, appreciative moans left his lips under the gentle petting. Goose bumps formed over his skin, following Yusuke's light touches. Anticipation pressed his fingertips into the other's shoulders and excitement made him groan, long and low. The fox tilted his head back, arching into the various caresses and exposing his most vulnerable area to Yusuke's teeth.

"Yusuke." The growl bubbled a heat so maddening it could only be released in a hot puff of his partner's name. The button of his jeans was popped open, and he sighed in relief. He was indeed regretting the tight pants that constricted him so painfully. Kurama's thoughts were pulled away from the unpleasant pressure against his length and happily focused on the sweet kisses left on his lips. "Mn!" The fox jumped a little and bit back a soft mewl, the pinched nipple hardening quickly.

The detective's hand cupped the back of his skull and Kurama found himself molding into it, relaxing and allowing Yusuke to explore as he pleased for the time being. It wasn't such a difficult task; the other teen was doing much better than expected. Sighing into the kiss he shivered as the zipper pulled down and his trapped length bobbed free. These particular pants left little room for undergarments, and he'd simply gone without. His shaft curved sweetly over the so soft pubic fur.

Trapped in a kiss that the fox easily returned, suckling and nipping in a playful fashion. His hips lifted up, aiding in the removal of his pants. There were a few awkward moments where the fabric clung to his legs stubbornly and he was forced to shift several times before they could be pulled off completely; however, once it was gone Kurama was happy to wrap himself around the detective once more. "You may have," a short pause to breathe and kiss. "All of me, Yusuke," he assured with a purr, arms finally tightening around Yusuke in a firm hold.

EDDE:
Every shudder and twitch, every sweet sound he elicited from the zealous teen below him served as a catalyst for continuance as his full attention leveled on those reactions; sharp thrills roaming through him in heavy waves that had him giving of his own light shudders as his pants grew more and more uncomfortable while he worked at the redhead. It wasn't bothering him though, as his focus remained so pointed.

"Nn." The warm groan pulled from his chest at the rather generous offer given after their lips parted again. "Gladly." It might not have been the least obvious response, but was all he could come up with given where most of his blood flow was directed currently. And it was true. He couldn't think of anything he wanted more at the moment than to 'gently' ravage the precious beauty beneath him at the moment.

A bit of heat that didn't have to do with the rest that his arousal was pulling through him graced his face as he chuckled through the thought that he didn't fully know how that worked. Now, he may not be the brightest crayon in the box, but he did least have an idea. The roving hand, a bit hesitant to do so, pulled away from its ministrations to work his own pants; his left moving to take its place.

He nuzzled back into the redhead's neck with teeth, tongue, and a sharp suckling for a moment as he loosed them. Even as he found he needed both hands to tug them away, a warm hum was poured from his lips at the tender flesh between jaw and ear as he tested out the sensitivity there. "God, your irresistible, Shuichi." It was in no way a complaint.

It took a bit more doing for him to squirm out of his own jeans, if only for the fact that he didn't have the help of Shuichi wriggling free of them as he had his own. Not that it was a huge chore, as he had a bit more mobility than the other. Either way it soon stood that they were both fully nude within a short amount of time. And he pressed himself much closer, a sharp huff on his breath as he guided and put the pressure of his throbbing need against the tightly puckered ring of muscle. His hand returned to its touches over the other. The dominant hand circled around Shuichi's cock and offered a tentative stroking in lieu of the teasing pets he'd given before. Still, he wasn't rushing any of it, which was honestly in the redhead's best interest given his inexperience and eagerness.

Fox:
He would have been happy to watch Yusuke disrobe, to soak in the delicious sight, but the thought was lost as his neck was once more tended to with such sweet attention. A soft puff of air and the fox gently guided Yusuke from the space between his jaw and ear, to the thin, sensitive flesh just behind his ear lobe. It pulled a low moan from his throat when a soft suction was applied there.

A wonderful thrill ran through him at those words. Vulpine vanity eagerly arching into the stroke of his ego. and Kurama shared his approval by pushing his head forward to latch his own mouth to Yusuke's neck. His nibbles were softer, but eager and his licks were gentler but quicker. Kurama sighed in relief when warm fingers encircled his heavy length but jerked a bit when he felt Yusuke take position between his legs. "Ah, wait a moment, Yusuke." His words were quick but only mildly panicked as he slid up the bed and slightly away.

The fox was reluctant to pull away as much as he did, but he'd been very strongly reminded of Yusuke's experience level. None. And the teacher couldn't lose himself, at least not yet. "If you do it that way, you will cause us both harm," more himself than Yusuke... Kurama lost his words for a moment, happily drinking in the sight of his partner and letting his gaze linger between his legs. A fire burned in him that hurt so bad and yet felt so very good. Yusuke would be inside him soon and he wanted it so desperately it clenched his belly.

Kurama shook his head a bit to clear his mind. He could be lost soon enough. Yusuke had proved to be a very quick learner, after all. "Do you have something to act as lubricant? Hand lotion, perhaps?"

EDDE:
A happy thrill ran through him as he was given the gentle help in causing that noise, having forgotten that particular spot until he was led to it. And he teased and suckled a small mark there until Shuichi pulled away. His own set of shivers that accompanied a hot sigh of appreciation for the attention to his own neck had been given just before.

He sat up a bit himself, extra color touching his face over the lack of knowledge that was brought up, but in no way pulling him from his current mood. He chuckled lightly as a snarky tease came to mind about their lessons that he brushed aside for once. "Ah. Sorry," he offered warmly, as it seemed through the redhead's tone of voice it was a pretty important step that needed to be taken.

A thoughtful look crossed face at the question just before he realized what a beautiful view he had of the taller male and his attention drew over him at length. "Not in here." The turning of that attention in the direction of his door was painstaking, as he honestly couldn't get enough of the redhead's gaze that had a twitch taking to his form just from emerald orbs landing there in that way. He managed to push past a warm groan over it, the breath escaping him silently through a warm puff instead.

"I think we have something like that in the bathroom." The offer was hard to make, but not as hard as getting up and pulling away fully to go and gather the needed item would be. But seeing as it was needed, he was willing to go looking for it.

Fox:
Kurama followed the gaze to the door and shared Yusuke's feelings on it. He chuckled softly, rather than finding the detectives lack of insight irritating he found it endearing, cute. "I have something a bit closer," he offered, slipping his fingers into the crimson strands and pulling a seed free. It was settled beside them on the bed and under Kurama's energy it bloomed. Roots coiled in the sheets for stability as a thick, blue stem sprouted and a matching blue flower bloomed. The petals formed the shape of a bowl, and it was quickly filled with a sweet-smelling nectar.

The thought of simply explaining it was one that turned his cheeks red, and it would surely ruin the mood. Instead, the fox dipped his fingers in the lubricant and slid closer to the detective. Taking Yusuke's hand in his, the fox slathered his fingers as well. "If I am not stretched it will be quite painful." His cheeks were dusted pink as he spread his legs and guided Yusuke's hand between them.

Kurama was trembling, his nerves and excitement mingling together to do so, as he touched their middle fingers to his entrance. "Mn!" Shuichi flinched sharply as the two digits slipped in. He'd forgotten this... Or rather, he'd never felt it quite like this. It hurt; a sharp sting that made him tense but as their fingers pushed deeper, he sucked in a soft, blissful breath. Free hand lifted to grasp Yusuke's shoulders; Kurama curled their intruding fingers together. "There is a place you should look for," he panted, eyes shutting as their fingers curled and pet against his insides, searching for said place.

EDDE:
The question he came up with for the blooming flower wasn't really one he needed an answer for, but it came out as he thought it anyway while he watched the curious plant take form. "So do you pretty much have something for just about everything in there?" It was also a partial tease, but his attention drifted pretty quickly through the guiding of his hand.

He honestly didn't feel like there was any sense in the heat that managed to paint over his face after all this, embarrassment easily not being his first choice of better reactions to it. It was there though. Gladly, it changed rather quickly into an excitement that spread itself further through his body as he took in the fox's features when both of their fingers violated him. While the initial reaction was a bit worrisome, it brought credence to the teen's words about the need of it. Still, a bit of concern bled into own features for the reaction, his idle hand thoughtlessly picking back up in the stroking it had been offering previously.

He didn't hold back in the warm noise that bubbled from his throat this time, for the feeling of the tight space surrounding those fingers, and the insanely thrilling thought of what else would be surrounded by that heat soon. There was a jolt that caused a shall jump to travel through his own insides as a deep want filled him for it.

While he was paying close attention to the way in which his finger was being guided, venturing to move just a bit on his own through a curiosity and want to learn his insides that quite resembled the same as the one for his outsides, the focus of his eyes and ears had quite pointedly fallen across his features through the movement. He might not be great at multitasking, but he had an aptitude for it when it came to this, though it did seem he had of a loss in ability to use his words quite as well. And he couldn't help but feel an anticipation for this place they were searching for.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
Soft pants and little jerks, his expression turned from tense pain to relaxed pleasure. His hips rolled up into the stroking hand and down onto their fingers. It was a terribly embarrassing thought that turned him on greatly, knowing their fingers were curled together, petting his inner walls and exploring untouched places together.

Nails dug into the others shoulder and Kurama's toes curled. "Ah! Haa~" His head fell back and his mouth fell open and he guided Yusuke's finger to press against his prostate again. Shuichi pulled his finger free and rested back against the bad, anticipation making him drip eagerly over the pleasing hand. "Right there... Yusuke," the pant was soft as dewy green eyes looked up. "When I can manage three without much pain, we will be able to continue."

EDDE:
The chill from the noise the boy let off that ran down his spine was somehow hot, and it radiated through him on a wonderfully deep level. He loved the sounds he could pull from him and the fact that this was yet another new way of getting them had his goal set on producing more. He wanted so badly to capture the sweet sound of this lips against his own too, but he couldn't take his eyes off the picture painted in front of him to do it.

He replaced the lost finger with a second of his own, experimenting with their touch as they roamed over inner walls, spreading and stretching with various purposeful hits to that spot that nearly had him quivering in an anticipation of his own for the result that specific touch would produce. His breath picked up as he felt the walls molding to his touch, stroking hand continuing its ministrations purely for the activity.

When he carefully pressed in the third finger, a deep-set shudder rolled through him as he opened him further; Finding on his own the effects of pulling them back to drive them back in to hit that place spot on, and continuing that movement once it was well accepted.

Fox:
Kurama's legs bent at the knees and his toes curled in the sheets beside the detective while he dug his nails into Yusuke's shoulders. His expression shifted from discomfort to bliss as the calloused digits stretched him out to the point of pain, then making up for it with strokes in just the right places.

Emerald eyes fell shut and his head turned to the side against the petal covered pillow, his cheeks were glowing a pretty pink that contrasted prettily against the crimson of roses and puffy locks. "Mnn!" Another flinch, this one full bodied as the third finger was carefully added, but his attention was quickly torn from the unpleasant sting to the quick jab to his prostate. "Yusuke!" Shuichi's back arched and the surprised yelp was followed by soft pants, his hips thrusting down against the intrusion. "Faster, Yusuke," came the quiet whine.

EDDE:
He was aching something terrible in the best of ways, wanting for more and driven past the point of higher thought as he soaked up every sound and shift the writhing teen had to offer him. Quavers rolled through him that had him moving closer and settling himself in preparation for more. The anticipation of what was to come had his pulse racing, a harsh throbbing it entailed putting a bit of a weight on him. Still, he obliged the delicious request without hesitation, those fingers pulling back, and he shifted the slightest bit before they took to thrusting, his aim still right on par.

He didn't notice; not even a little. Aside from appreciative his and noises of slight discomfort that came purely for overwhelmingly strong bouts of shivers Yusuke was rather quiet. He soaked in all of the beautiful noises from the redhead beneath him and listened carefully to any words that left his mouth. But being so insanely captivated while focusing so heavily on pleasing Shuichi left little room for thought on his own words. He was lucky that the appreciative, concentrated look he was showering on the foxy human spoke in volumes what he couldn't muster up through voice.

Fox:
He had no control over the pants and whines that left his lips that matched the quick thrusting of Yusuke's fingers. He was rolling with it, vulpine grace making each movement fluid while his while his cock dripped greedily over the perfectly stroking hand. A sudden, fierce desire seared him to his core. It was something he hadn't felt in a very long time; Centuries, perhaps millennia, the feral need to be filled.

The sharp stab the new desperation sent to his groin was just too much. "Stop!" And the yip was too late. Shuichi's head tossed back, and a loud cry left his lips. Every muscle tightened, his inner walls clamping against the fingers tight enough to make it difficult for them to pull away. Heavy spurts of cum covered his belly, and when they came to a stop the fox collapsed back onto the bed with heavy breaths as the rose petals bounced up and floated back down to the mattress.

EDDE:
The word startled him. Even without the intense grip around his fingers that did it for him, the frantic plea would have had him ceasing the movement anyway. He recovered quickly as he realized what it was for, picking the strokes back up to help him through the frantic attack on his nerves.

He flushed as he absorbed the captivating sight, having the best view he could have asked for given previous circumstances. The ability to note that he had been the one to pull the fox into such a beautifully twisted mess only swelled the experience.

Only he didn't gloat or offer any snarky comments as he might have in the past, and despite the sharp tensity around his fingers, they pressed in further prodding and rubbing heavily against his prostate to offer just that much more through his release. "Why are you so freakin amazing?" The complaint was light-hearted as he couldn't help but think about the rather graceful beauty the other exuded in literally just about everything he did.

Thus far they had only done this through a single release and as the fox calmed, his own issue became far more prominent in his mind as that distraction ebbed away. He wasn't sure what came next with Shuichi having finished before he'd even gotten chance to feel that heat surrounding him. The light contemplation flowed across his face easily as his gaze raked over the messed boy. Why didn't he ask? He wasn't entirely sure, but the thought of having to was met with a rather pathetic feeling he didn't think he'd enjoy putting on his chest.

Fox:
Still lightly panting to catch his breath, mewling softly with the extra internal massage that forced a few more spurts into Yusuke's hand. He relished in it. Kurama knew his partner was still wanting, and he would be sure to satisfy them both, but for the moment he let himself catch his breath. Little tremors rolled through his body that was quite wonderfully humming.

He was pulled from his afterglow by a compliment that burned his cheeks when it really shouldn't have. "Forgive me," he puffed softly when his lungs were satisfied. The look on the detective's face was endearing. Memories of the first time in a past life, and thinking on how vastly different they were... He couldn't help but smile as his arms wrapped once more around Yusuke's neck to tug him back down. "But I am quite relaxed now, it should make penetration easier." the other teen was pulled into a lingering kiss. "Please continue, Yusuke." In an afterthought he motioned to the flower, just to be sure it wouldn't be forgotten.

EDDE:
His features softened toward the apology, finding it cute that he would do so at a time like this, and obviously not minding for the beautiful show he'd been given. He took the offer of the boy's lips eagerly as he was pulled close, molding happily into his grasp. The news was elating in its own way, and he smiled down on the redhead through a swirling torridity in those deep brown eyes of his.

The request for continuance was met with a warm shudder as his pulse skipped a beat oddly for the excitement the simple words brought. His attention was pulled to the flower, not having forgotten it entirely, but grateful for the reminder as he might not have thought to use it again through his eagerness. He doused his fingers with the sweet nectar and wrapped them around a hollering length, a heavy shiver and soft hitch in his breath rolling through him as he worked it across sensitive flesh.

"Shuichi," he panted out lightly, leaning down to offer a gentle nip to his lips, giving a soft tug of the lower between his teeth through an appreciation of the sweet noises they'd distributed through the room for his ears. "I really like it," he continued as the grip he had on the redhead's slick member readjusted to pull back into a firm stroking. "When you say my name like you did." That breathless, wanton calling of his name had done wonders to tinkle him straight to the end of his nerves.

Hot breath was pitched against those lips as the hand giving himself far too much of a treat on its own left its attention and slid down the other teen's leg, pulling it up into a bend from under the knee and sliding further to support the tug of it to land back around his waist. He also very much liked the closeness position had provided.

Upon moving his leg to circle him he shifted closer, the molding hand traveling back down his leg before pulling away to take hold of himself and guide a pressure against the previously filled heat. There was a pause as that intense anticipation screamed through him all over again enough to weaken his resolve into making a pretty face of his own for the teen as he groaned warmly before he manned to calm just a bit. "You ready?" The additional question was almost a request for continuance on its own despite having been told to already, purely to be sure the fox could take him on out of an amateurish concern for taking more than he might have to offer that lingered for his contemplation over his release.

The offering of that stroking hand, that was nearly expert in touch already through their time together, didn't falter in the treatment it was offering aside from the small catch it took when he'd gained that look a moment before.

Fox:
Already his heart rate was climbing, and his breath threatened to come out in pants. He forced them into heavy breaths while lifting his leg with Yusuke's guidance. The helpful stroking kept his shaft from deflating completely, and that along with the quickly mounting anticipation had him hard once more in the detective's palm.

Kurama hummed softly into the kiss, returning the soft suctions and nibbles. "Then I implore you," he said with a soft huff and a playful smile. "Do make me say it that way again, I enjoyed it too." He jumped, just a little at the pressure put against him, and embarrassment burned his cheeks. He shouldn't be nervous about such a thing, and yet his stomach was fluttering with the wings of trapped butterflies. "Say mine as well, won't you?"

A slight hitch in his breath and the fox wrapped his legs tightly around the detective in assurance. "Yes," he answered with another puff of air, looking up at Yusuke with misty eyes and kiss swollen lips. "Start slowly, if you wouldn't mind."

EDDE:
He nodded softly as he looked over the teen's features, taking a moment to quell the wonderfully unnerving rise in himself before pushing forward. He was immediately assaulted by the tight heat as his head popped through the muscle, forcing a softness to his features he couldn't pull away from as a warm groan left chest. The stroking hand became a bit more generous in its offering as it had seemed to help quite a bit before.

There was a resistance there he honestly hadn't expected that helped him in taking the gradual filling at a slower pace, as did the torrential whirlwind that threatened far too much of an escalation of excitement the slow friction consuming pressure brought through him. It forced his head down in a repeat of reaction to the first time the redhead had touched him; Bated breath and soft grunts assaulting his lungs in a way he had little control over as forehead found the nook of Shuichi's shoulder and pressed onto it lightly through a slight coil against the feeling.

Despite the pace, it didn't seem long at all before he had buried himself to the hilt, a long, low whine filling his lungs as his body stilled against him as he was seated fully. He was forced to take his time in recovering from the heated mess he'd fallen into, using it to lift his chin and stretch the bi it took for hot breaths and sweet kisses to cuff against the tender flesh of the other teen's neck and throat. "Hnn, Shuichi," he whined breathlessly. "You feel so good."

He made his recovery faster than he'd thought he could, the anticipation for what more vigorous movement would bring pushing him forward soon after. Maintaining the attentions of his hand and mouth, her pulled back and pressed back in carefully, taking a few shots before he found that place that had gotten the redhead to sing his name so beautifully before. But when did the pace picked up just a bit and he kept his aim in the continued movement as he managed to surpass the need to coil and pulled back his face to lock lips with the fox and steal away as many sweet noises as he could.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
He'd been expecting it, he was prepared for it and yet the fox took in a sharp breath and tensed as the head pushed passed the tight ring of muscle. The pain was nowhere near unbearable of course but... the fact it came while so perfectly protected under the detective somehow made it worse. Yusuke stretched him out further than the previously exploring fingers, and he was reaching so deeply that Kurama lost his breath.

"Yusuke." Shuichi's breath was soft as his arms crossed over the others shoulder blade to hold him steady. His discomfort was cast from his mind as he felt the detective crumble against him in bliss. Once Yusuke was fully sheathed, he let out a soft grunt and relaxed into the calming attention to his neck, carefully rocking his hips into the wonderfully stroking hand.

And then Yusuke called him Shuichi, and like that. Kurama gasped softly and tilted his head back. He could feel every inch move inside him, it was slick but tearing him apart; and it was starting to feel so very good. Yusuke's missed thrusts inside him made the fox whimper in anticipation, and then... "Yusuke!" The bulbous head pushed firmly against his prostate and the fox started grinding his hips with each new strike.

Kurama was mewling and arching, leaking profusely in the others palm and forgetting how to breathe for several long moments. Yusuke's lips were attacked by his own, sucking and licking and muffling all the beautiful noises pouring from his throat. "Mnnha," a gasp for air and a moaning plea, "Harder Yusuke," and he dove back into the kiss.

EDDE:
He didn't find it difficult to focus at all on what he was doing, except maybe the attempts at quelling bleating breaths through his nose while their lips were locked. That lack had him pulling away slightly far too often for his own liking for the need to catch up, but moving right back in to take them. He couldn't stand the way the redhead said his name, horribly exciting chills racing through his veins for it. And it seemed he'd managed to pull it from in that wonderfully thrilling way as well through the continuance.

His heartbeat was pounding in his ears and his nerves were buzzing in a way he'd only revisited when the two of them were together. A warm groan, and a heavy, sweet mutter of the boy's name were pulled from him as he melted into the returned kiss. The movement of his hips halted for just a moment, the moment it took to take hold of the other's with his free hand for leverage. It was firm, and the tug on it lifted Shuichi's hips that have him a bit better access.

He complied easily as he returned the movement, taking on a more vigorous thrust that still held a gentleness despite the craving he got to set a much less tender pace for the way it was asked if him. He was forced away from those lips again through heavily leaded breaths and happy moans to erupt past them. They were followed by a string of expletives that were laden with Shuichi's name several times as his face found its way back to his neck without permission.

He didn't waist the opportunity, taking in all the air he needed as he laved his tongue up along the pulse line an dragged his teeth back down it. It settled him near the nape, and through an upbeat of thrusts pounding into that spot, he couldn't bring himself to get a grip, his teeth instead dragging heavily over his skin several times through the attempt.

Fox:
Yusuke's name became a mantra that left his lips, broken only by wordless cries and gasping breaths. Kurama's legs bent, ankles locking around the other teens lower back while his toes curled tightly. Each inward thrust was met with a beautiful outcry and a rhythmic clench of his inner muscles. He was in bliss, pure and utter bliss that had him cascading towards his release far too quickly.

"I can't... Yusuke I-" Shuichi tensed in a full body clench in a valiant attempt not to finish too soon, again; but it was only moments later that he was arching high up off of the bed and his head rolled back against the pillow. He was howling Yusuke's name, semen pumping across their stomachs and the others hand; and his inner walls formed a vice like grip around the pistoning length. Kurama's gripping nails were dragged horizontally across Yusuke's back, leaving behind bright red marks and tiny pin pricks of blood.

EDDE:
The rhythmic tightening of those muscles around him was driving him crazy as the redhead all but began climbing the wall, drawn further by the sweet grace his voice had to offer. A grace that told him over and over so desperately that he was the one tearing apart fox's reserve. His own vocal cords were running away with him, but all he could hear was other.

He was forced away from the other through an arch that was only allowed to be taken through his neck with the grasp Shuichi had on him, as he held onto the rising feeling in himself for as long as he possibly could. He lost it through the heaviest if those noises, as the grip on the inside took precedence over the rest of the hold he had against him. A soft cadence of the other teen's name followed the one of his own as his thrusts grew short, frantic, and a bit uneven as he gained the vantage point just in time to see the boy beneath him lose it.

The added tightness left little room for him to move about freely despite the continuance his hips wished to take. It left him pressing and grinding into his prostate as he filled him to, and beyond the brink when his body finally gave in to that frantic feeling and allowed his own release. His face contorted into its own beautiful picture of tortured bliss while looking down on him as his own sharp cry joined the chorus. And Shuichi's name was drawn to the end of his breath and further. Until he was forced to gulp back air as the noise pooled into deep hums and whines through the short cadence left in his hips; so glad neither of their voices had a need to be muffled to interrupt their bliss.

And once he found his breath again, the complaint on his lips was said through a somewhat hoarse chuckle, and the sweetest of smiles. "God, Shuichi, how do you do that?" The question was genuine, amazed by how the taller male managed to drive him insane in such a wonderful way. But not one that needed answering, as instead of waiting for one, he took a desperate hold on the teen's lips with his own, wanting everything to do with them all over again.

Fox:
The continued grinding into that wonderful little bundle of nerves pulled gasping sobs from the breathless fox, his lungs gasping for air but his ecstasy demanding it be heard. Just barely did he have the mind to open his eyes to see Yusuke's own pleasure reach its peak. Heat poured into him, filling him to the brim and then some; he could feel it dripping down onto the sheets.

With one last airy moan Kurama fell back onto the bed with heavy puffs of air. Sweat clung to his forehead and stuck locks of red across it and his bright red cheeks. He turned unfocused, dewy eyes onto the detective and smiled; tired and breathless but bright. Crimson mane a muss across the pillow; a truly ravaged beauty.

Shuichi moaned as their lips met and he returned it eagerly; but as his high slowly came down the kiss became lazy and tired. His hands moved from Yusuke's back to cup his cheeks and hold him close, even as he broke the kiss and rested their foreheads together. Emerald eyes fell closed, his body trembling lightly whether it be aftershocks of pleasure or something else. "So much better..." The words were said in hardly a whisper, not meant for Yusuke's ears and only audible because of their closeness.

EDDE:
"Better?" It took him a long, long moment to catch his breath as it attempted to escape him each time he drew it in through that kiss, gasping just lightly for it as Kurama broke it. The stroking hand hadn't stopped, and it picked up all over again as the raven-haired boy landed a hot gaze down on him. The words he had to offer weren't his own, though they were just as hot as that look, and humid through their breathless compliment. "Shuichi... You're intoxicating."

He was still buried deep, and the hand on the other's hip moved up to pick at sticking strands and brush them out of the way while unaware of his own similar condition with his focus so intent on the redhead. "I can't get enough of you," he admitted warmly, easily. He lifted his chin, pressing light kisses over the fox's cheeks, brushing some bang away from under his lips as they reached his forehead.

Through the tender after care, it had to be obvious he wanted more all over again, especially given how magnanimous the treatment of the spent shaft was as he rubbed and stoked at it.

Fox:
The question was ignored, it didn't seem all that important to Yusuke anyway. Kurama moaned again, flinching as the sensitive organ was continually stroked. It came close to pain but it was quickly pointing towards pleasure as it regained its rigid state. "Oh yes," he puffed, clenching tightly around the detective in a show of delight.

Kurama basked in the attention; savoring it for a few wonderful moments before his thighs pressed against Yusuke's waist, ankles leaving his back. With a graceful strength he hadn't yet used in their play, the fox rolled them over with probably a little more force than needed. Hand pressed to the boy's shoulders, Shuichi looked down with a terribly pleased look.

"That doesn't seem very fair, Yusuke," he teased with a delighted purr. "You have had multiple chances to explore me." The fox rolled his hips, grinding just enough to press Yusuke against his prostate.

Kurama sat back, taking him in fully and arching so prettily. He'd had a grace about him before under Yusuke's touch, but this was intentional and there was a heated look in his eyes. Lifting a hand, he ran his fingers through his bangs while the other gathered the puffy mane hanging down his back. His hair was lifted and with a vain flourish it was tied in a loose knot, all with his eyes shut and a relaxed look on his face.

When his hands fell away his hair was up in much the same fashion as it had been before. His eyes opened to turn that smoldering stare down at the detective like he was the tastiest of treats. A long index finger trailed up his belly, covering it in his own seed before lifting it to his mouth. His hot, pink tongue dragged over the length of the digit once. "Shall I begin my turn?"

EDDE:
The detective had made his own assumptions about what the teen has decided was better. He certainly thought the sex was better than what they'd done before, not that he was knocking it, cause that was great too.

A happy groan left his chest as he was rewarded for his ministrations with that pressure around him, what air was left in his lungs leaving in a warm huff for the treat of his voice. But a moment later his eyes were wide, and he was starting up at the fox for the need to catch up with the change in position.

Another warm noise was laced with a bit of frustration over the many levels of change that occurred with that movement, a sharp shudder wracking him as Kurama took him in and his free hand found a grip against his upper thigh. He didn't think it would ever cease to surprise him how easily the redhead could take his breath away.

When he found it again it was already shorter. God, Shuichi was really fucking pretty, and more than that really. He didn't mind the small show in the least, as it was incredibly pleasing on his own, not to mention how much more amazing it made the feeling of that heat surrounding him. He couldn't stop himself as his hands drifted free for just a moment and a small bend to his waist allowed them to pet and roam down that beautiful body despite the fact that Shuichi seemed to have decided it was no longer his turn for such touches. But still, he couldn't keep his hands off him.

That soft look that tended to cross his features when he lost himself, lost his normal demeanor, to the overwhelming feelings their play could produce found its way across his features as his eyebrows drew together lightly. The grip he had on that thigh returned and tightened, sliding down to be joined with the other as he pressed his hips up and made a bit of a sharper connection to his prostate through the movement, not lowering away for a long moment of applied pressure. "Y-eah," he agreed through a bit of stuttered breath and a small break in his voice for the delicious scene above him as he was asked if Shuichi could continue.

Fox:
The seductive expression faltered, just a bit, and a gasping moan left his open mouth. The fox rocked back into the heavy press and for a moment he desperately wanted to bounce his hips and arch into Yusuke's hands. It would feel so good to fall into Yusuke's embrace again; but he wouldn't be deterred. With a heavy groan Kurama leaned forward, resting his hands on Yusuke's chest for balance as he pulled up and off. Cum dripped heavily from his backside, but he hardly seemed to care.

"Yusuke," he said with a sighing purr, brushing their lips together in a tickling graze. Kisses were speckled over the other's cheeks and made a feather light trail to his ear. "The virtue of patience is a burden," he hummed against the shell. He paused to nibble there and trace his tongue along the curve of Yusuke's ear. "Do try to bare it." Kurama's voice was light despite the husky undertone.

Nimble fingers traced the points of collar bones, and soft lips trailed over the exposed throat. The redhead's right hand took Yusuke's left and lifted it, lacing their fingers together. Kurama's mouth continued the trek, following the line of his shoulder and down his upper arm. His eyes closed and the fox hummed softly, paying sweet attention to every inch of skin and keenly listening for a difference in Yusuke's breath. Teeth were gently scraped over the crook of the elbow, testing areas with thinner skin more prone to sensitivity.

Kurama's left hand was anything but idle. Open palm pets reached down the teen's side, soft and grazing, firm and stroking to lightly scratching. He wasn't just exploring; he knew exactly what to look for. In a stark contrast to the gentle treatment, the fox paused in the petting now and then to pinch Yusuke's nipple between his thumb and forefinger, only to scrape over it with his thumbnail.

All the while Shuichi remained up on his knees, refusing to offer attention to the area that wanted it most. For now, at least. He was ignoring his own need as well, shaft heavy between his legs and bobbing in the air.

EDDE:
That same frustration made its way through his voice as he let off a heavy whine for the loss as the boy took away that sweet pressure. He leaned into the too fast kiss even with the slightest of pouts on his lips as he was told to be patient. How cruel. But in all fairness, he couldn't rightfully complain, that being the only reason a protest didn't come. His face reddened just a bit through the kisses to his face, a light squirm touching his hips for it that didn't seem to dampen his mood. Though he did tease, loving how graceful the other was even in his dismount. "I'll try, but I'm not making any promises," he nearly growled through a smirk. And even though it was a tease, he was being perfectly honest with it.

Hot breath puffed from his chest at the initial action taken against him, light shivers sneaking down his spine for the attention to his neck and collar bone. His head tilted up and away a bit to give him further access without really noticing he was doing as much, though his eyes traveled down to peek through the corner as his hand was captured in such a sweet way. He couldn't keep his eyes off Shuichi's actions, the curious mask he'd put on so much lately falling over his face as he watched him explore. Variously he was assaulted with light shivers simply for the attention that was being placed on him, though the difference between those and the reaction to the attention to his neck was easily different.

Another light puff of air left him as teeth grazed over the inside of his elbow, a light hitch forming in it for a moment for that curious surprise over the bit of sensitivity. Though it turned out that it was mainly those teeth rolling over his skin that pulled the reaction from him, a bit stronger for the thinner-skinned areas. The attention to his nipples gave for soft grunts and light flinches to pull past his lips and features, giving cause for the slightest of twitches in his grasp or jumps of his hips. Although the grunts were growing slightly longer, mounting with that same frustration the request of patience had gotten him. At some point that he hadn't noticed the fingers of his free hand had curled into the sheets, the grip partially taken to help hold him back in his want to roll them back over and bury into him again, and partially to help stem back the reactions to the torturous exploring that had him so gladly aching.

"Shuichi," he whined through a light huff, finding his patience wearing thin already by the time the other teen had moved on from his arm. He groaned, sitting up just a bit out of reflex of wanting to be closer already. "I can't stand it." Patience had never been his strong suit, and the hand that had been curled in the sheets reached up and took a light grip partially around the back and side of his neck, giving a light tug in a request for him to retake a closer position to him.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
The grazing became more frequent, pointed canines trailing over the back of his hand and back down over his wrist towards the elbow. His exploration was cut off with warm laughter. "Yusuke, I've only just begun," he teased. Though, he'd gotten about as far as he expected.

Kurama allowed himself to be pulled in a little, pressing the captured hand down against the mattress and squeezed it lightly. "I will be a bit faster," he promised lightly with amusement clear in his eyes and voice. "But try to wait just a little longer," he offered a soft kiss that lingered longer than the previous. When he pulled back again, he continued with a purr. "I can promise you; the reward will be wonderful."

EDDE:
A bit of a pout, and some color rose to his cheeks at the sweet laughter that left the redhead's lips that was a little too pointed toward his lack of patience. It wasn't like he could really help it. Fingers curled a bit tighter against laced fingers as his hand was pressed into the mattress.

A light huff of annoyance left his chest, but it was quite clearly pointed toward himself, as he already knew he honestly shouldn't make such complaints after all the exploring he was allowed to do previously. It was just... He liked being the one doing the touching, and pulling those sweet noises from Shuichi. Oddly, it was harder, and he supposed a bit embarrassing for the role to be reversed. Although, he was learning a bit from it even now, and had already formed a few ideas of what he might like to try with the other teen the next time he had his reign.

He offered a light nod through a somewhat apologetic smile before he was kissed, and returned the gesture with vigor quite happily. Another soft huff, accompanied with a lightly frustrated noise that was pointed purely toward the incredible thrill that rolled through him at those words, and the wonderful way in which they'd been said. Since he'd already agreed, he pouted out lightly, "I'm trying." Letting go of his neck, his hand trailed down the fox's body lightly, wanting to find a home somewhere on his skin, but lowering it back down to the bed to free him up to do as he pleased instead. It was difficult even to pull away that much.

Fox:
"Thank you," he soothed before offering another kiss. It lasted just long enough to be satisfying before he pulled away once more. Just as promised, the fox picked up his pace; his hand leaving Yusuke's to travel down that arm once more as he shifted down. The plan of trailing over each limb was set aside for another day, he was finding himself losing patience as well.

Hot little tongue ran a path down Yusuke's throat, laving the flat of it against the hollow above the collar bone. Shuichi placed both hands on the bed to help him crawl backwards while his mouth paid sweet attention to Yusuke's torso. Down along the sternum and dipping the slick muscle into the belly button, flicking in and out of it a few times.

Green eyes were playful as the looked up at Yusuke. Settled between the teen's legs, the fox held the messy shaft in his hand and ran the flat of his tongue over it. It seemed different, the purpose not for pleasure but to clean the cum and nectar from it with a happy little hum. Once properly bathed Kurama shifted his attention down lower. While distracting laps were offered to his balls, the fox slipped his hands under the teen's backside to lift him up just a bit.

Vulpine mischief gleamed in his expression before his attention was pulled elsewhere. His thumbs pulled the muscled cheeks apart to expose the untouched pucker. Once more Shuichi hummed in delight and used that sinful, silver tongue to pet over it once, twice, then wiggled inside pleasantly.

EDDE:
His hands curled back into the sheets as the one was released, if only for a hold to keep him steady, and from pulling the redhead back up from his attentions. He was assaulted almost instantly with wonderfully chilling shivers that rolled through him and ended in a notable throb as that tongue traveled down his body. His breath picked up a bit when it hitched from a bit of a tickle that pulled his stomach back through the treatment. His face was burning so heavily as he watched his decent that by the time the fox nestled between his legs, he thought it might be entirely possible he was going to pass out from overheating.

The stunning look he landed on him didn't help in the least. And that hot tongue only served to heat him over further as he sunk into the pillows and low noises, appreciative for much needed attention billowed past his lips in a light swing with each grooming lick to his aching need. His eyes had closed, fingers laced tightly in the sheets, and he had turned into a small pile of a mess of heavy breath by the time Kurama had finished bathing his cock. His knees lifted a bit and he molded into the change almost obediently without being asked, and without thinking on where the change might be taking him.

Those eyes shot open and his head lifted as the slick muscle rolled over his entrance, a soft grunt of surprise for it brushing past his lips as he breathed out his confusion. "W-what..." He didn't work to stop him through the question he didn't finish, though he did tense against the new feeling a bit. Never had he thought to do such a thing, and he couldn't help but think he probably never would have without guidance. Then again, that was how most of this was, wasn't it? That didn't make it any less surprising.

And it didn't make the incredibly sensitivity to that niggling tongue any less surprising either. A short gasp was followed through with his right hand flying to his mouth. He wasn't sure why he felt the need to cover it so suddenly, but if it were to keep back noise, it did nothing to help. His fingers spread apart so far when he moved to cover it that his pointer landed mid upper lip while his middle finger barely grazed the corner of his mouth below it. His thumb dug into the joint of his jaw just a bit as his ring finger did the same around his chin. His pinky was left to curl into itself as his lips parted despite the heavy grasp he'd taken against his face and a slow, warm and heavy moan rolled past them and those digits.

Fox:
Yusuke's reaction pulled a soft hum from the fox that vibrated his intruding tongue. It was such a cute face the teen was making, and it fueled Kurama's efforts. Holding the cheeks tighter and spreading them a little further Shuichi buried his tongue in as far as he could reach. The slick muscle was just as dexterous as the rest of him, curling and with the tip petting against the inner walls.

His own need was starting to throb now, but it was easily ignored for the attentions he was offering his partner. Kurama began to thrust his tongue in and out slowly, feeling the muscles relax and contract as he so diligently searched. The slick muscle pressed up and scraped over the wall until her found what he was looking for. Humming once more in delight, the fox flicked his tongue over Yusuke's prostate in rapid succession.

EDDE:
Already so incredibly over simulated through the fox's efforts, the continuance had him gasping and writhing in heavy moans that pushed past non-helping fingers that kept their grip his face. "H-hang on," he groaned rather helplessly as that tongue searched it his insides. Even just thinking on the action served to push him further.

And as he found and assaulted that spot sent a horribly delicious chaos through him, he whined so prettily. "Ngh Shuichi!" It was gasped out frantically as he tensed against the harsh building of that frantic state, the grasp on the sheets tightening and moving to tug sharply at the wrist. "Shuichi wait," he gasped, truly helpless for the tensity that made it impossible for him to move against the feeling; forcing the other teen's name from his lips several times breathlessly as he attempted so valiantly to hold back his release and warn the redhead of what he was doing to him. But it came, and it came hard, forcing the attempted repeat if that name to come out in a heavy, warm cry; his head pressing back into the pillows while the hand that had clamped his face slid away to grip the pillow next to it through a harsh arch in his back and a beautifully tortured expression across his face for another wonderful new sensation he'd yet to experience that drove him so hard over the edge.

Fox:
The pleas were ignored, in fact they only urged him on even further. He splayed out his tongue to stretch the puckered ring just a little, then pointed it to thrust in and out. His tongue was quick and surprisingly sturdy, the tip striking Yusuke's prostate. Kurama could feel himself leaking, drooling onto the sheets bellow. His arousal was aching so badly his hips were rocking to find nonexistent friction.

It was worth it. To see his partner arch that way and call out his name so perfectly. Kurama was generous, the moment he saw Yusuke arch and felt him tense, the fox pulled a hand away from a muscled globe to take a strong hold over the shaft. With his tongue still thrusting, Shuichi stroked the detective through his orgasm, helping it along until the boy was spent.

Pulling away, the redhead wiped his chin of excess saliva before taking the time to lick away the hot liquid. "I'm sorry, I couldn't stop," he said with a grin that showed just how 'sorry' he was. In order to hide his own need for the time being Kurama laid face down on the bed, arms crossed with his cheek resting on top of them. His head was turned and warm, shining green eyes resting happily on the other. This felt so good, and not just physically. Despite his own arousal all he wanted was to kiss the teen beside him, though, he wasn't sure it would be accepted all considering.

"Would you be opposed to a kiss Yusuke? I have a terrible urge to never let you go." His chuckle was light and warm. "Of course, I could always brush my teeth beforehand, hm?" Granted he would need to borrow a toothbrush...

EDDE:
Yusuke rode out that bliss through heavy breaths and deep, guttural groans of ebbing frustration as he bathed himself in his own mess, the continuance gracing the redhead's attentive hand with some as well. His head was swelling and swirling for a long moment as he came down from the high while Shuichi moved to lie next to him.

The thought that raced through his mind as the question asked was in no way appetizing, but in all honesty he felt the same way, and how the Hell could he deny that face? A soft grunt left him as he shifted, rolling to face the fox better and pulling his cheek into a tender hold as he leaned down to take all of what the kiss had to offer despite the earlier thought. "Geez, how can you manage to be so damned cute at a time like this?" The question was the smallest bit of retribution the state he'd just had him in.

Fox:
A gentle hum came from the fox as his cheek was cupped and his offer of a kiss was accepted. He moved his lips slowly, softly, a means to become closer rather than a hungry desperation. Kurama was unwilling to break the kiss, but still he allowed Yusuke to pull away. Despite his aching need so tantalizingly pressed against the sheet, Shuichi was content to slide a little closer and nestle himself against his partner, perfectly content.

"I can only assume it is the same way you do, Yusuke," he answered playfully. "I suppose it is inevitable that we accept our mutual 'cuteness.'" The laugh that followed was soft and genuine; happy.

EDDE:
He didn't necessarily want to pull away, but he'd watched the redhead long enough to know he was still aching. Chuckling lightly over their unchecked cuteness, here nodded as he lifted the boy's chin and nibbled lightly just under it. "I guess so." The return came with the gentle slide of the hand supporting his chin down over his shoulder to take a light grip at the joint.

He used the hold, as well as grip the reached down to the fox's hip, to roll the other over and climb over him a similar way as Kurama had done before, no contact other than his hands as he peered down over his affliction lengthily. "Hmm~" The noise was warm, and brimming with a sensual lilt. " Well wouldja lookit what I found hiding under this sexy redhead in my bed." As he pooled attention over it through look and talk, pointer finger of his dominant hand trailed down his chest and stomach; through the mess there on its way to its destination.

And it was mentioned, that finger traced down and around it before making contact, trailing from base to tip, his eyes never leaving it as thumb and forefinger offered a slightly torturous massage to the head. "Hnn, Shuichi," he all but purred as the tease continued. "I never took you for the needy type."

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
A relaxed sigh left his lips as Yusuke's pressed under his chin. The simple touch was soothing to the burning arousal still trapped against the sheets. There was no resistance, and the fox rolled onto his back and prettily, unconsciously, posed himself among the few remaining rose petals. In clear view his shaft was much the way it had been the night before the final match. Terribly hard with a darkly hued head.

The teasing words brought such a heat to his cheeks and a sharp of pleasure to his lower belly that he tensed and let out a squeak. A squeak! like some sort of excited kit or frightened mouse. "Don't call me that," he huffed in a low moan that came as just the lightest bit of pressure was offered to his arousal.

What a sight he must be making, flushed and lightly squirming. A needy fox. "Yusuke," he puffed, reaching out to wrap an arm around the others neck. "Not just that."

EDDE:
The detective leaned a bit closer as Shuichi wrapped his arms around him. The teasing massage against his head grew just a bit heavier, knowing he wasn't offering much more than had been before. A rather devious grin crossed his features ass his attention drew to his left hand as it trailed over the redhead's chest and stomach, just barely avoiding touching nipples and naval as he traced by them close enough to raise an anticipation for a touch he didn't give. "What, sexy? Why not? It's the truth," he insisted lightly.

He managed a curious look that easily told he wasn't as lost as he might seem. "Eh?" It was quite hard not to smirk. "You mean this isn't enough?" His head tilted lightly as he pretended to work things through mentally. "You know, I can't seem to remember what comes next." He couldn't hold back that smirk anymore as he added, his attentions still so light despite the offer of relief they offered. He repeated himself for what he had said that night, "Tell me what you want me to do to you, Shuichi. And I'll do it."

Fox:
At a loss for words his eyes darted to the side and back in a rare expression of shyness. His lips pursed together, and his shifting eyes closed as he arched into the petting touches that just kept missing their marks! His nipples hardened and goose bumps rose along the skin Yusuke touched. However, a displeased growl rumbled low in his throat as he leveled Yusuke with an irritated stare... Kurama couldn't keep the expression long, the harder rubbing to the sensitive glands made him shiver, precum soaking the digits generously.

"I am well aware that you know what to do mnn~" Shuichi rocked his hips up and resisted a sob of frustration. The little touches were becoming almost worse than nothing at all. So the fox pulled Yusuke down a little more, lifting to meet his lips and whine a pretty 'Please help me Yusuke.' To mimic their night on the boat.

EDDE:
He gave a cheeky little chuckle as he was called out on not knowing what to do. Well of course he did, but that wasn't point, was it? There was a moment in there, through the plea, that it looked like he might lose his resolve.

Taking advantage of his protective nature was certainly a good tactic, as for that moment it shown in his face. And considering he wanted almost nothing more than to help the issue... But he wasn't going to let Kurama get to him so easily all over again. Not to say he wasn't insanely good at it.

The attention of his fingers changed as found his resolve all over again, and a hot and heavy stare was landed on the emerald pools now so close to his. He offered light pecks to skilled lips just after poking his tongue into the kiss he was offered to roll over the roof of his mouth. The rest of his digits joined the other two in trailing down the hardened shaft until the head of it stopped them pressing up into his palm. At that point he offered a far too gentle petting up the shaft with those fingers before trailing them back down and starting again. "Well sure. I know what I'm doing now, but that doesn't mean I can read your mind."

His free hand tugged up Kurama's through a lacing of their fingers, turning expose his wrist just enough as he pulled it to his mouth after backing off just enough to make it comfortable. He set the bone of it against the bottom row of his teeth as he opened his mouth wide enough to drag the top row down to meet part way until the flesh bunched between them. Offering a light suckle licking over the sensitive skin before releasing to repeat that process as well.

Devious chocolate eyes landed on his all over again, and when his mouth wasn't too busy, having a tone that matched the look he was giving incredibly well, he offered, "So, is this any better?" He doubted it was anything more than torturous, but he couldn't help himself. Especially as that adorable squeak of a noise he'd given off played in his mind all over again. He'd loved that he'd gotten such a noise from him. "If you don't tell me what you want Shuichi, I'll just have to keep trying to figure it out for myself. It could take a while, you know."

Fox:
For several moments the slightly better grasp was blissful. It slightly eased the ache and a sigh left his lips, but it wasn't nearly enough. The light hold quickly became just as cruel as the earlier touch, and he turned sharp eyes to the detective. Making it very clear that the comment wasn't appreciated; but they softened just slightly as their fingers laced together once more.

"Ah," the fox sighed, shivering as teeth touched his wrist. Thin skin was pinched together, and Kurama's cock jerked in Yusuke's hand. A pink mark was left behind by the attention. His partner's question pulled a displeased sound from his throat, and Shuichi was keenly aware of the fact Yusuke was taking far too much advantage of the control he was given.

Placing his hands on the other's sides Shuichi gripped them and rolled them over once more. Yusuke was practically shoved into the mattress, his hands moving to hold down the detective's shoulders. Leaning over a curtain of crimson framed his face. "You have no right to be so cruel, when your own patience leaves much to be desired." It was purred as the red head shifted and rocked their groins together with an oh so delicious moan.

EDDE:
Honestly, he just couldn't help himself. Watching the fox squirm under him was absolutely invigorating. He even liked how very annoyed Shuichi was getting with him over it, while still perfectly amazed at how well he brought his own body to life.

A lightly surprised noise puffed past his lips as they rolled again. A warm laugh following the redhead's words. Although it was cut off by a heavy shiver and a light groan as he pressed closer to the friction the taller male offered. "Yea maybe, but I really like what it does to you, Shuichi. Besides," he smirked out lightly. "If this is what it gets me, you can't really expect me not to wanna do it more, now can you?" He pressed up lightly against the hold that had him pressed into the bed, it not stopping hands from roaming sensually over the curves of the other boys body as he looked him over.

Fox:
An exasperated sigh left his lips, his hips stilling and lifting up and off of the detective. "I refuse to say such vulgar things," the fox assured, hands leaving Yusuke's shoulders in order to sit up on his knees. Kurama turned at the waist just a bit in order to reach behind himself with his right hand to grasp his partner's arousal and hold it steady. "And I will not be denied."

Carefully lowering himself he was sharply reminded of how new this body was. The head pushed at his entrance, and when the fox started to push it in, he flinched with a soft hiss. It hurt, the earlier trauma making the penetration a painful one. Still, he continued the slow decent with quiet gasps and little flinches until he was fully seated. It felt strange to allow such honest expressions, but as he settled dewy eyes on Yusuke's he understood why. Kurama found himself excited for the comforting touches he expected in response.

EDDE:
And he wouldn't be disappointed. Even as the detective flinched lightly and offered warm groans and hot breaths against the sensational heat encompassing him, concern for the redhead bled through the heavy look that was landed up into those beautiful eyes. Palms and digits had merely been touching for touch's sake molded into gentle pets that had him using the leverage to tug the taller boy down to meet him halfway. It wasn't the most comfortable position given his own state, but that didn't really matter to him. And as he tucked his legs together at the ankles, he found it gave him a much better range of movement and reach as the boy sunk lower into his lap.

Sweet kisses were planted over Shuichi's face, neck, and shoulders as he moaned out his name warmly against his skin; the teasing nature and cruel intent having faded away instantly at the first sign of distress. He didn't press for more as he had before, having calmed in a way through excitement that was barreling in his chest and groin. The name was repeated through gentle moans again and again as his hand moved between them to stroke out a bit of reprieve for him while the other continued to pet, slowly moving to focus on the small of his back.

Fox:
Crimson lashes fluttered as kisses were placed across his cheeks, and his head tilted as they trailed down his neck. A sighing moan slipped passed his lips as he was lavished in soothing attention. It had his cheeks flushing darker and his muscles relaxing; the choking grip around Yusuke's shaft loosened just a bit, and the frantically twitching inner walls slowing into rhythmic clenching.

Kurama moaned and jerked his hips into the now very accommodating hand. "Oh yes, thank you," he sighed in blissful relief as he rested his forehead on Yusuke's shoulder. The fox rolled his hips, grinding against his partner and finding the light sting very much worth it. His motions pressed Yusuke's cock up against all the right places and every time he'd grind his hips it would rub against his prostate.

EDDE:
As his breath shortened through being sheathed and re-sheathed, low appreciative moans that were laden with his name every few moments were turned down into red tresses as he rested against his shoulder. He couldn't get enough of that name and how much the other teen loved it playing off his tongue, having no qualms with letting him know over and over he was tearing any resolve he might have left to ribbons.

His lips buried into that hair as heavily as the fingers of the freely petting hand, tugging through it just as tenderly. Spreading more sweet affection didn't pull in the least from the attention he was giving to the firmly held, throbbing wet member beneath his fingers, forced into a cadence that followed Kurama's movements as his own hips rolled lightly with the flow to meet him. He wasn't interested in saying anything clever, even having found what seemed like undeserved gratitude so wonderfully invigorating, he didn't have the chance to think on its oddity for their sudden change in mood collectively. He did, however, see fit to remind the other teen of how good he felt through a heated mumble against that sensitive spot near his ear he'd recently been shown before paying it just as close attention as any other part of him he'd been focusing on; though this time with a suckling play added to those kisses.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
The little sounds he was making were quickly falling away from pain and into tiny mewls of pleasure. "Yusuke," came a sobbing moan as Shuichi trembled in the others hold, the skin under teeth turning a pretty pink to match the mark on his wrist. The repetition of his human name continued his quivering and reminded him of where they were and who they were. In this wonderful moment he was human, and in this moment, they were normal teens without the threats to humanity weighing on their shoulders.

"Yusuke," he said again, taking a firmer hold of his partner's shoulders. Shuichi gasped sharply, thigh muscles bunching as he lifted himself up. It stung and burned and yet it felt so good it was difficult to breathe. The fox lowered back down and let out such a beautiful whimper as he was filled once more; but his trembling form had a difficulty in repeating the action. "Take hold of my hips," he started, pulling back enough to look down at his partner. This allowed Yusuke to see the cute faces he enjoyed so much, flushed face and hazy eyed expression. "Aid my movements." The request was made as he started a casual pace of bouncing.

EDDE:
It wasn't just the reaction to his name, or the enticing faces he pulled that drew him in so deliciously. He found himself noticing over and over that it was Shuichi, everything about him even past this was definitely what he couldn't get enough of. His hand slid down the fox's body to his hip obediently, taking a firm grasp there as well and supporting the movement through the generous offering of his name that honestly seemed to be the only thing that could escape him. He had so much more to say than that, but could only portray it through his tone.

He loved seeing that look on his face and relished in it without passing any mind to the heady, heated look he had return. But there was that greedy need to have his lips again, to steal away those noises and keep them for himself even from the air around them. And he took them, knowing full well Shuichi had a much wider range of motion given how very occupied every part of his own body was at the moment, and loving the feeling of nearly being trapped in the shared pleasure that was driving him up the wall in an almost different way from before.

Fox:
The kiss was met with eager lips that were forced to pull back for gasping breaths before they plunged back into the desperate embrace of lips and tongues. Kurama leaned forward, once more pressing Yusuke back onto the bed to give himself a wider range of motion. He continued their sweet kiss, rocking his hips back and forth to press his burning length against Yusuke's stomach with each of his careful thrusts. Thrusts that were quickly picking up speed.

"Ah!" The fox pulled back with that desperate cry when he found the right angle. Sitting up, he rested his hands on Yusuke's chest for leverage and support. Shuichi lifted himself up until only the head was left inside then dropped down with yet another cry. The movements continued, dropping harder and lifting faster until he was a moaning mess of desperation that pulled wetness to his lashes. "I don't want to stop," he panted, whining when he felt the knot in his belly tighten and threaten to snap sooner then he wanted. "Yusuke, Yusuke!" Shuichi arched so prettily as he bit his lower lip, desperately trying to last a little longer.

EDDE:
He didn't lose his breath as easily this time around, though he did need to catch it a few times as he was pulled to higher heights as the redhead moved in his lap. "God, Shuichi," he started through a whine warmly as he helped him move. The thought was cut off through the sudden change as he found his back against the bed once again.

He reveled in the stunning sight and extremely pleasing sensation in the change of the fox's movements against him. But he couldn't handle it for long. "Neither do I," he all but growled as he took a sharp of the fox's hips, pausing him for the moment it took for him to reel up and flip the other teen onto his back instead. It was a little weird to think on, but he couldn't just lay back and enjoy himself. Though thinking about it for just that moment, he figured it was because he liked forcing him into such a state under his own power.

He abandoned his cock for the moment, hands sliding under and past the back of his knees to grip his hips and lift his legs for the opening it gave him. He took heavy hold and used the leverage it gave him to complete the action. Shuichi might not be willing to say such crude things, but he didn't even have to think on saying such things, as they came far too easily for him. As he repositioned himself in prison for the onslaught, a smirk rolled across his lips.

"I'm gonna 'gently' fuck you up the wall, Shuichi." It might not be the most creative thing to say, but as stated before, he hadn't thought on it. Anyway, it got the point across. And considering how he drove into him just after saying as much, the pace he started as he aimed for that sensational place inside pulling his hips away from the fabric and slapping them together audibly, there couldn't be question to just how gentle he was willing to be as he stabbed into his prostate with a perfectly maddening force. Still, he wasn't being horribly rough with him either as that heated stare focused down on him sharply, and he resumed the slow cadence of his name through lowly ground out, ecstasy riddled groans.

Fox:
Shuichi didn't fight being flipped over onto his back, instead he easily fell into it. Both hands rested on either side of his head, twisting in the sheets as his knees bent to rest over Yusuke's arms. The fox obediently lifted his hips with the warm hold, his skin damp with sweat under the other's palms. A gasp left his lips as Yusuke moved and the accompanying smirk made him throb.

Such crudely spoken words pulled another humiliating squeak, but no time was left for the red fox to dwell on it. Bright stars flashed across his vision and Kurama's back arched with the pain of reentry; but a loud howl came along with it with the strike to his prostate. Yusuke's name forced its way from Kurama's kiss swollen lips in gasping cries, broken only by the occasional yes! His fingers curled tighter in the sheets, the fabric stretching and threatening to tear under the fierce grip; and he tried so desperately to hold out.

But Shuichi reached between them to take hold of his dripping shaft and stroke it in time with his partner's thrusts, and that was all it took. Toes curling, his whole body tensing; the fox tossed his head back in an arch to cry his release into the room in the form of Yusuke's name, his cum covering his already stained abdomen.

EDDE:
Oh, how the beautiful song falling from the redhead and echoing into the room drove the determined dance oh his hips. The knot in him was tightening so intensely it would have been far too difficult to continue without it as he watched the teen lose himself all over again. And as he tightened around him and rolled into those cascading, clasping spasms he lost himself as well; repeating the earlier process of grinding into that sweet spot through the heavy little jumps his hips took as he filled the redhead all over again.

A low moan of the teen's name rolled from him with such genuine appreciation. His end had him spilling out of the teen a few moments later, taking some of the filling with him as he leaned up and kissed over the fox's cheeks, his forehead, his lips, under his chin, anywhere he could find a spot for his own lips as he praised him. "God, Shuichi, I don't ever want to stop doing this." He knew it would come to an end eventually though, and he was almost dreading it. "How you look," he continued as he kissed over his face again. "The way you move," he continued as his hands took to rolling over his body again.

"And those noises." He ground out in a warm groan, his lips landing on those sweet ones for a few moments longer in a wonderfully passionate way, his tongue darting out to lick over them through a perfectly frustrated noise that first bubbled in his chest. As one of those roaming hands trailed down to grip at him and attempted to stroke out just a bit more temptation, the attention of his lips was joined by teeth and tongue to suckle and nip at the nape of his neck.

Fox:
Yusuke pulled out and the fox groaned in a mixture of bliss and pain that was only slightly in favor of the later. He felt full still, hot and full and out of breath. The kisses and pets did nothing to help him catch it again. "Yusuke." The name was softly spoken, whispered into the room as he shivered under the others touch. The accompanying words made him shiver, and he wanted nothing more than to indulge his partner; but his body was fatigued and even under Yusuke's perfectly wonderful touches he couldn't comply.

"I'm sorry I..." The fox was still trying to fill his lungs enough to stop his panting. "Require a break. It will become painful soon," not that his backside wasn't already starting to ache terribly. Still, he didn't pull away, he couldn't bring himself to. Not when Yusuke was kissing him so sweetly and perfectly petting his ego. Instead, Shuichi reached up to drape his arms over the other's shoulders, and guided him into one more kiss. It was tired and a little lazy, but it was blissful contact.

EDDE:
He didn't pout; He didn't whine or grow annoyed with the exhausted male. But a soft smile drew over his lips as the tone in his touch changed at the apologetic confession. The detective wouldn't, couldn't be nearly as aggressive with the other teen as he had been a few moments before in the height of passion as he looked over him.

"That's fine." Gentle pets and caresses took over the movement of his hands as he repositioned himself just above him through the contact their lips made. There was an understanding there even as that blissful excitement continued to zing through his nerve endings. He himself wasn't exhausted, though he could honestly tell it wouldn't take too much more to get him there.

He only pulled back from the kiss to offer more of them around his neck and shoulders, paying some sweet attention to his collar bone before pulling back all over again to gain another wonderful eye full of the picture beneath him. "You're amazing, Shuichi," he mentioned all over again through the warm stare; no qualms whatsoever in showering him with such appreciation.

Fox:
His breathing slowed as Yusuke pulled away from the kiss and soft kisses were placed over his skin. With one final huff the fox looked up at the detective looming over him, admiring the flushed cheeks and warm expression. "You flatter me," he sighed softly. Shuichi was becoming aware of the state they were in, sweaty and covered in semen. The thought of standing from the bed was not a pleasant one; however, the thought of laying in their bodily fluids was a worse one.

Kurama sat himself up slowly, resting back on his hands as he did so. Petals that had been crushed against his skin peeled off to land on the messy sheets. The fabric was speckled with blood from Yusuke's back and smeared with their mingled cum. "You are a very quick study, Yusuke. I can't imagine why you do so poorly in school," he teased lightly.

EDDE:
He chuckled warmly. "Yea maybe, but that doesn't mean it isn't true." His voice had taken back on its tone, though the pitch was still a bit low as he continued to speak a bit softly. Unlike Kurama, Yusuke was quite used to using his own voice quite loudly, quite often. However, he hadn't actually gotten all that loud during their play for the most part.

He backed off enough to keep their closeness as Shuichi sat up. A bit of a pout on his lips as academics were brought up, he was forced to pause and think about that small fact. "Well, I guess cause this is, off the charts, nowhere near as boring," he offered lightly through that little grin of his. "Besides. I care about you a lot more than I do school." He cupped the boy's chin and cheek as he put their lips so very near to each other all over again, his eyes lidding a bit through a perfectly smoldering stare as he said so.

Though he hadn't meant to sound quite so sappy, and felt the need to add, "Plus, the return for this is way better. And you're way better than any other teacher I've had for anything else."

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
Color returned to the paling cheeks, his eyes widening just a fraction before he turned into the cupping hand. His cheek was nuzzled into the warm palm just enough to be noticeable. The look Yusuke settled on him made his heart flutter in a foreign manner and he couldn't stop himself from cutting the other off. The detective managed to get to 'Plus,' before the fox molded their lips together all over again.

"You are far too charming," he scolded when he pulled back. However, his wispy tone and his continued press into the hand against his cheek pointed towards the fact he wasn't complaining in the least. "I was expecting far more puns," he admitted with a soft chuckle while he finally came down from his high.

Shuichi made a bit of a face when he moved. "As lovely as lounging in our bodily fluids sounds," he started with a slight scrunch of his nose. "I would very much appreciate a shower."

EDDE:
He blinked a bit as he was cut off by the other's lips but didn't fight the grip they held over him. He kissed back happily, chuckling heartily at the complaint. "You know, I would have," he teased even though it was the truth. "But I there wasn't really anything worth making fun of."

Chocolate eyes peered over their bodies and the bed, noticing the rather horrible mess they'd made. "Mn. Good point." He offered lightly, taking an extra moment to look over the redhead, quite obviously trying to veil the concern that crossed him for his condition, and mostly failing. Still, he smiled warmly in that way he had so many times previously. "Want help, Shuichi?" This time was only partially suggestive, as he couldn't keep that silly tone his voice usually had.

Fox:
The fox slid out from under Yusuke to sit up straight. The position put pressure on his tender backside, so he had to hide the flinch that threatened to twist his face. However, Kurama found himself laughing quietly to himself. Should he be in a better condition he would have responded accordingly; with a seductively purred 'help me.' Instead, he captured Yusuke's lips all over again.

Their lips slid together perfectly, and it was so hard to pull away. "I will allow it," he finally answered. There was a pause before Shuichi took another kiss, sighing blissfully as he did so.

EDDE:
It was so, so easy to get lost in those lips. And he let himself; both times. It was the detective who pulled away however, despite how hard it was.

He shifted, grabbed, and stood with a sharp chuckle on his lips. "Well, as long as you're making allowances," he teased heartily. He had the redhead in his arms, holding him bridal style with that look about him that spoke toward the snarkiness of the action.

The redhead was taller, yes, but it wasn't as if he dwarfed him. Continuing toward the bathroom since he gathered the boy up, he offered a clever grin through a suggestive tone. "Don't worry Shuichi, I'll get you nice and clean."

Fox:
The briefly displeased look on his face was for the loss of lips, not the new hold. Kurama resisted a chuckle and rested his cheek against Yusuke's shoulder for the short walk to the bathroom. "I should hope so," the fox answered without hesitation. "You have made quite the mess of me, Yusuke." Kurama tilted his chin up and placed a light, fleeting kiss on Yusuke's cheek. "It would only be right to take responsibility."

EDDE:
Yusuke chuckled back cheekily despite the bit of heat that rose to his cheeks as lips pecked against one. "Don't give me that," he mocked casually as he set him down, still offering support as he fiddled the knobs into running hot water down from the tall head. "You're a big boy. You're just as bad as me this time, buddy," he teased as he stood fully and tugged to press close to him through that same smoldering look he'd managed before.

"Your very dirty, Shuichi," he added through a heated tone, not making mention of his own messy form. "I gotta say, you look damn good like this, too." And just like that he switched off that look as he tugged him along into the shower with him through another warm chuckle. It was true after all. "I'll have to do this to you more often," he added cheekily as even more of a tease toward the accusation of what he'd done to him.

Fox:
"Oh no, Yusuke," he offered in an almost polite manner with a shake of his head and playful eyes. "Once I have become acclimated to such intrusions, I will be sure to show you 'dirty.'" Despite the fact that his backside was sore, and his legs still felt a bit like Jell-O, the red head followed his partner into the shower with his usual grace. A sigh left his lips as the warm water hit his skin and the filth of their play was rinsed away.

Under the spray of the shower his puffy red hair was soaked flat, and the crimson strands clung to his body and softened his features. It's true length reached down to his lower back. Kurama took a moment to wipe away the mess on his belly before smiling at the detective. "Shall I wash your back?"

EDDE:
As they stepped into the water, he let off a soft hiss for the bit that attacked his back. He'd noticed the deep, stingy scratches on his back already, and it wasn't as if he could complain. He'd been warned, after all. Although the light pain of it did bring up that particular conversation they'd had. And he was about to comment on his earlier question as to whether the fox was a screamer, but the redhead beat him to it with a comment that brought far too much heat to his face for his liking.

Though he decided, as his hand trailed the redhead's body in wiping the mess and suds away, that he liked it a whole Hell of a lot when Shuichi talked to him like that without any prompt, even if wouldn't with said prompt. The small surprise of it, and perfectly sexy way in which it slid off his tongue (even if it wasn't as vulgar as what he'd like to pull from those often far too proper lips) sent a small thrill of excitement down his spine. He allowed himself to enjoy it, but pushed it aside just enough to stay focused on their goal of getting clean here.

"Sure, why not?" He answered to the offer, his cheeky state was winding down only as quickly as he was. Although it was a bit hard to wind down very well with the delectable sight of the soaked teen that was almost more doable with the change the water brought about in him, even with the state he was in. "By your logic, since that part is your fault." Of course, he couldn't help but tease.

Fox:
He should feel badly for the long claw marks across Yusuke's shoulder blades, but all he could manage was a delighted sense of possession. Slim fingers touched over the welts, happy to find very few areas that he'd clawed deep enough to pull forth blood. "I apologize," he soothed, though the happy lilt in his voice showed just how 'sorry' he really was.

The fox had to bend slightly to press fleeting kisses across each line because Yusuke was just as irresistible to him, as he was to Yusuke. He didn't linger long. The thought of shower sex was very tempting; Slick bodies and heavy steam, the tiled walls and floor enhancing their voices. It took a great deal of willpower to remain soft under such delicious fantasies. His backside needed a break.

Mindful of the scratches Kurama took great care in washing the detective's back; pressing his thumbs into just the right places to work tight muscles into relaxation. A silent chuckle shook his shoulders as his mind wandered. "Thank you, Yusuke," he started before pressing a kiss to Yusuke's shoulder. "Tonight has been quite lovely."

EDDE:
God it was eating at him. Even though Kurama needed to rest; even though he probably needed to rest, he still wanted more. But it wasn't bad enough that he couldn't control himself. At least, not anymore.

He smiled lightly for the care Shuichi put in washing his back, noting and filing away his own lighthearted thoughts on it. The caress of those fingers molding tense muscles in much too skilled of a way certainly helped the anxious excitement that was trying to roll through him. He relaxed into the massage far too early. It was the redhead who had brought up need for rest, dammit.

"Yea," he agreed warmly. "It was nice." Chuckling himself as he was kissed on the shoulder once again, he turned to face and capture those lips before offering the same relaxing treatment to the redhead. As strong hands took on just the right amount of tender pressure, as they had tended to do many times before, he added through query, "Wanna soak in the tub while I finish cleaning up?" He wasn't sure where his quirky nature had run off to and hidden for the most part tonight, but it tended to ruin things pretty easily, so he didn't really mind its loss for now.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
Tight muscles tensed and relaxed under the detective's hands and Shuichi let out a soft sigh through his nose, shut his eyes and titled his head up into the shower spray. He pulled his fiery mane out of the way and over his shoulder and only pulled out of his relaxed daze by Yusuke's question. "Shall I expect another besiegement of cold water?" The question came with a quiet laugh. As much as he'd like the detective to stay, he needed to do a bit more cleaning. Cleaning that would turn into much more than that with Yusuke present.

Kurama turned to press another kiss to his partner's lips and silence his own laughter. "I would enjoy that, thank you."

After Yusuke left him alone the fox performed the arduous task of cleaning himself out before he changed the water flow from the shower head to the faucet. With the curtain drawn back Kurama relaxed in the slowly filling tub, turning the water off with his foot once it reached high enough. Shuichi's arms rested on the edges of the tub while his legs crossed at the ankles, heels propped up on the edge and his head resting back with his eyes loosely shut. Prim and proper even while soaking in the tub.

EDDE:
Yusuke went about cleaning their mess in the bedroom once he'd left Kurama to his own devices. If course, he'd let him know he was pretty sure the water would hold, though it had taken an afterthought to realize and inform him that if it did turn cold, it wouldn't be due to the laundry.

As he cleaned, put the bedding in the wash, and remade his bed, he figured he should probably care more about the negative connotations of this thing they had, but it didn't bother him really; he'd never cared too much about what anyone else thought about him... well maybe certain people now more than before, but it wasn't like that bothered him either. He'd pretty much always had the notion that anyone who didn't like him for whatever reasons could simply fuck off.

Upon finishing, he made his way back to the bathroom and popped open the door. He gave of a warm chuckle as he looked over Shuichi. "You look comfortable." He teased.

Fox:
The nagging ache in his lower back sent an almost pleasant hum through his body as the fox rested in the heated water. "And also quite tired," he answered, leaving his eyes shut for several more seconds. His drying hair was curling up by his shoulders, similar to its usual shape. With a bit of reluctance Kurama stood from the bath, removing the stopper on the drain on the way.

He was quick to dry, then wrapped the towel around his waist from habit alone. There was only the slightest hint of a limp in the few steps it took him to close the distance between them. "You have succeeded in exhausting me." The redhead sounded quite pleased as he slipped past Yusuke and towards his room with a playfully added, "You pass."

EDDE:
"Make yourself at home." The offer was warm and meant, yet still teasing since Kurama was doing as much as he relaxed that few more seconds. Of course, hot chocolate eyes traveled over Shuichi's body lengthily as he watched him get out of the bath. His own towel was securely around his waist, though he'd had a bit of difficulty keeping it tucked and wrapped while cleaning.

As the fox slipped past him he reached out, and heavy hands trailed down his shoulders and over his arms in stopping him as he pulled close behind him and pressed flush up against his back side. "Oh yea?" He cooed the question out cheekily as his lips found their way into feathering across his neck as he held him close. The attention of those digits found their way into playing across the line of fabric around his waist.

"What's my grade, Professor? Maybe I need a little extra credit." Why couldn't he keep his hands off him? Not that it bothered him. In fact, he really liked it. And he couldn't help but wonder just how exhausted Shuichi was now.

Fox:
No matter how exhausted he may become, Kurama wouldn't be able to deny the others touch; couldn't stop himself from leaning into it. Yusuke's palms sliding over his damp skin caused a delightfully soothing heat that nearly had the fox sighing; a sigh that escaped when lips brushed along his neck. Under the teasing fingers the towel loosened and slid from his waist to hang on his hips, with the left side dipping lower than the right.

"Mm," he agreed with a hum while bathing in the offered attention. A single word broke that little bubble, the fox tensing and standing a little straighter. Goose bumps formed on his arms and he was glad Yusuke couldn't see his face as blood rushed to it far too fast. The thumping of his beating heart skipped then thudded against his chest and he couldn't understand why being called 'Professor' caused him to falter so fully.

"Ah, well," he started, his smooth tone easily hiding the terrible excitement growing in his belly. "You are just short of an A; however," there was a soft, regretful hum that was more taunting than anything else. "I am experiencing a fair amount of discomfort." The red fox turning his head to look over his shoulder and stuck out the tip of his tongue playfully. "Alleviate me from this fate, and your marks will surly rise."

EDDE:
There was something about seeing the redhead's reactions, the heavy change in such a familiar stoic air, and knowing he was the one that cause it that riled him up so fully he nearly couldn't stand it. He loved it. And it had the roaming right hand capturing his hip while simultaneously keeping that towel up for the most part.

It had a roving left hand dipping boldly without hesitation below the towel's grip against his skin and circling the very top of his inner thigh; had knuckles brushing against his intimates as digits rubbed out a light massage there in keeping his attention. "Just short, huh?"

His chuckle was as warm and good natured as ever. It was the best grade he'd gotten since... well the last time he cared, he was probably barely out of diapers, so it had been a while. He liked the way Shuichi poked his tongue at him like that. He's seen it often enough lately, and couldn't help but think it was a great look that spoke volumes toward a personality he knew so little about. Just how was it they'd known each other so long and still knew so little about each other?

That didn't matter at the moment. And even though Shuichi was using big words again, he got gist of what he was telling him. He'd make a list later or something and ask about them. He wasn't about to let them ruin his chances to do when better with the learned boy.

And because he could tell by his change in posture, by the rise of his skin; because he knew Shuichi just that little bit better, he wanted to fully see the lovely reaction he'd pulled from him purely by accident. No longer caring to keep the towel up, the right lifted to capture his chin through a light hold of his jaw in a perfectly stingy want that had treated him so well thus far. He practically purred out in a moan the words he had to offer through want as he took a hold on the thigh that pulled the redhead's body even heavier against his own without sacrificing the turn that was in his neck.

"Hmm Professor, I haven't wanted to earn a good grade so bad in my life."

Fox:
White fabric slid down off of the fox's hip when Yusuke's hand pulled away. It pooled on the floor around his feet and left his thigh open to the wandering palm. Knuckles brushed against his gradually lengthening shaft, and he relaxed into the hold over his jaw, tilting his head with it submissively. "Just short," he answered with a playful coo that finished with a heavy shiver through his form.

Green eyes fluttered and a hot breath left his lips following the others moan. How could he be rattled so completely by just a single word? How could Yusuke make him want to fall apart with so little effort? Kurama felt his body humming in anticipation and a soft moan of his own tickled passed his lips. For the briefest of moments, he thought of melting into the hold, submitting to the wonderful tremors that threatened to wrack his body... However, that would be much too easy.

"It is flattering to be able to pique your interest, Mr. Urameshi," he purred while stepping out of the boy's hold. Fornicating in the hallway wasn't the most comfortable of thoughts, and a nagging pain in his backside suggested he move their play to somewhere softer. The bedroom was his goal as he turned on the ball of his foot and stepped backwards towards the door while facing the detective. His half hard length was quickly growing more than that under his excitement and anticipation for their continued play. "Please proceed in earning your high marks. I have high expectations of you."

EDDE:
That same warm, almost growl of a noise posed past his lips as he closed in on the fox as if he were his prey. "You do, do ya?" One might think the impact that was inevitable from the way he moved wouldn't be pleasant in the redhead's state, but just short of connection there was the slightest of changes that had the fox lifting up and over his shoulder caveman style with the easiest effort, and slightest of connection.

The continued movement the bedroom was flawless, and lacked just as much impact. Even the fluid movement that landed the fox in his back in the bed all over again was somehow gentle in its crassness. The smirk splayed across his face as he leaned over him without the removal of his own towel was just as hot and humid as he'd managed to land on him before. "Well don't lower 'em," he added spryly. "That way when I blow your mind all over again I'll know I did better than you thought I could."

He chuckled all over again, his hands moving to rove over his body. But this was different from the exploring he had been doing previously, as they touched on and teased at known sensitive spots in just the right ways he'd learned so well as his mouth took up attention at his neck, no other part of him touching the redhead.

Fox:
The predatory nature of his partner caused a thrill to run up his spine and settle down in his groin. "Ah!" the surprised yip was followed by a laugh as sweet as warm honey. Rather than fight the sudden hold, Kurama placed his hands on Yusuke's back to aid in keeping it. The warm chortling was different than usual, it lacked any strain or effort, it was simply happy and normal... Purely Shuichi.

Red hair splayed out across the newly dressed bed, he thought briefly of mentioning not wanting to sully the clean sheets; but the heated smirk sent his way chased away any thought that didn't involve Yusuke's hands on his body. Kurama lifted his arms to curl them around Yusuke's neck, fingers absently spreading across his back. "Exceeding my expectations would be a marvelous surprise," he agreed with a sigh, relaxing into the touching. This time, he would allow Yusuke to do as he pleased. It was his extra credit after all.

Yusuke's fingers left little tingles and raised bumps, his nipples hardening, and an appreciative moan was allowed passed his lips. Little pink marks had been left behind by their earlier play, giving Yusuke dots to connect across his neck.

EDDE:
That laugh. Yusuke loved the sound of it. He looked down over the redhead as he toyed with those sensitive areas, contemplating everything he'd seen from him lately as he pulled away from his neck.

Smiling that crooked smile his, he leaned back down to offer a few light pecks to his lips. "Geez. I can't get over how normal you are." Perhaps it wasn't the best way to put what he'd meant, but Yusuke wasn't always that great with words.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
Perhaps it wasn't the best choice of words, but the fox understood them all the same. His arms shifted and deceivingly delicate hands cupped the boy's jaw, letting his thumbs brush lightly under the cheek bones. "It is relieving to be normal with you, Yusuke," he admitted. It was almost alarming how normal this felt. Nothing was hidden, Yusuke knew who he was and is and Kurama had no need to hide his demonic origins nor his newly acquired human traits and priorities.

The light little kisses were turned into one long molding of lips. The fox held Yusuke loosely, sighing into the touch with the slightest hint of color in his cheeks. "I wish to stay this way for a very long time."

EDDE:
Well, it certainly was relieving, if not just for what they were doing. The thought was cheeky, but he didn't share. Though it probably showed on his face. Still, he calmed as Shuichi changed their kiss, melting into it just as easily as any other time. "I like it too," he offered smoothly as he ran his hands down, then back up the fox's body. "And I don't think I'd mind that either."

He hadn't forgotten about his extra credit as easily as one might think with how easily distracted he could get, but despite his better nature, he was loving the slow gentle hold and caresses he had to offer in movements that had turned nearly exploratory all over again. He knew he should be putting what he'd learned to better use, and this closeness wasn't something he'd thought he'd have such a craving for. But in all honesty, he just couldn't get enough of it.

Fox:
The darkening color in his cheeks was almost as confusing as the heat in his chest and the very sudden butterflies in his belly. The touches were lighter now, and the detectives words warmed his heart and softened his features into a vulnerable expression that just felt... good. An unfamiliar emotion, even after his years in the human realm the human heart was such a strange thing to the centuries old kitsune.

Yusuke may have remembered the extra credit, but it was gradually leaving Kurama's thoughts as the calloused palms ran over him so sweetly. "You will drive me to insanity," he breathed quietly, though his words were not directed at the slow attention. Spreading his legs the fox captured the detective between his knees, then pulled him in for another kiss that was gentle and sweet... Loving. "Join me, won't you?" There was something in that question that could very easily be misconstrued as a tease. A plea for something. Something he didn't understand, but knew Yusuke could give.

EDDE:
He knew it was odd, even as the curl to his lips, and sharpness in his eyes softened simultaneously as he drew over Shuichi's body all over again. It was almost as if he were feeding off the redhead's body language. The sweet kiss was returned, and the feeling rolling through him was incredibly different from the Hellfire he'd had to deal with earlier on when the other teen had put him in such a mood. It was warmer, deeper, and somehow a great deal calmer despite how rampant it flowed through him.

One hand left it's sweet caress of the redhead's body to reach down push his own towel away. He shifted closer, that same hand trailing up the taller male's leg and thigh, only to stop it's travel in order to offer a far too skilled touch in massage of the hardened organ between them. "Shuichi, you're too good," he all but purred. "I can't get enough of you." It was, he felt, the best way to put just how he was feeling about the other.

The distraction of the odd rampage had gotten to him just that quickly. Extra credit flew out the window the moment he'd reached for that cloth. And his lips were encasing Kurama's again, his eyes lidded as he looked down over that beautiful expression. "I don't wanna hurt you," he added while pulling away just enough for the breath, their lips still barely mingling. "Will your flower still help?" They'd really gone at it before, after all. And the lively teen and exhibited several signs that spoke volumes toward a need for more of a break than his own body wanted to offer. "I want all of you." He didn't only mean that in the sense that he'd taken as Shuichi's meaning when they'd first gotten into the bed tonight.

At least at the moment, he wanted anything and everything Kurama had to offer him; past, present, and future. Even though he couldn't put something like that to words, he was going to do his absolute damnedest to find a way to let him know.

Fox:
There was something familiar about this. It was very much like their little bubble of peace on Hanging Neck Island. He was relishing it just as much now as he had then, perhaps even more so now that the threat and sorrow that had brought them into that bubble was gone; and still it was peaceful. "Ah," he sighed softly, the calloused palm wrapping around him again and offering a sweet pleasure that only hinted at the bliss to come.

Shuichi smiled a bit at Yusuke's admission and nodded his head. "Yes, it should," he answered, his hand leaving the others body to reach into his hair to pluck free the seed that had tangled into it during their vicious romping earlier. Kurama didn't mention the fact that he was sure it would hurt, at least at first. He was terribly swollen and rubbed raw, but he also knew from old experience that such a pain could bring the ecstasy to new heights.

Once more the seed was placed beside them on the bed, and tangle in the sheets as it sprouted and grew as it had before. "Yusuke," he started, hand returning to the teen's shoulder to grasp in with gentle fingers. "You may have all of me." It was spoken in such a warm tone.

EDDE:
He peeked, watching the flower grow all over again. Not able to split his attention for long, he focused back fully on the redhead. That was where he wanted it anyway.

Despite how well he'd already done so, he managed to soften all over again for the offer. "Can I keep you?" The question was posed against redhead's lips. More heat touched him through the amazing want that filled him through it. "You can have me too, Shuichi."

He knew he'd be in pain. He figured they'd probably done this more than enough to have that limp in Kurama's step for the following day as well. He didn't want to hurt him, but he wanted him on a level he couldn't even comprehend.

Fingers of his free hand dipped into the petaled bowl and drew down between them. The gentleness he hadn't quite reached earlier, but had had to offer on the boat landed in his touch all over again as he carefully pushed his middle finger in to pet at his walls delicately. Stretching needed or not, he wanted Shuichi writhing as blissfully as possible before taking that step that would have him engulfed by the fox's heat. Of course, the offer of that stroking hand hadn't expired either.

Fox:
"You may," he answered. That playful smile that suited Shuichi perfectly returned to his lips. "However, Yusuke. Cute no longer describes this expression you have. I would dare to say you've become 'adorable.'" His teasing ended with a sharp gasp and a heavy tension in his body. The single digit put a terrible friction inside him, the swollen walls screaming with every movement; and yet, his shaft throbbed in the teen's hand.

Kurama dug the pads of his fingers into the others upper arms, sparing them cuts but possibly leaving bruises. Pretty green eyes were clenched shut and his lips pursed together tightly; but only a moment later his eyebrows furrowed upwards and his mouth opened in tiny mewling cries as pleasure became pain, and pain became pleasure. "Another."

EDDE:
He liked that response; a lot. And while he might have pouted toward being called adorable, the distraction of the teen's pain kept his attention soft and focused. Careful touches continued to prod. He was pretty sure Shuichi would let him know if it were too much.

The tight grasp he took on him was just a bit painful, but nothing that bothered him any as they continued. Light lingering kisses pet over the fox's lips in attempt to help him relax, pulling back a bit as Kurama's mouth opened to look over the expression and check his condition all over again. A warm chuckle bubbled through him for the sweet address. And just as carefully he added another, as requested. Pressing, searching for that spot that the redhead had given such wonderful reactions for before as he worked at loosening him, he teased back. "I can live with being adorable." His own playful look crossed his face. "I'm just wondering if you can."

It didn't take long. The memory was still quite fresh and beautifully vivid in his mind. And once he found it, he payed a great deal of attention to brushing against it just as carefully as anything else he was doing. "I like it though," he added in that same perfectly heated tone he'd had to offer several times before. "It's a good look for you Shuichi; Squirming, and moaning, and asking for more. I really like it. I like doing it to you. And I like the way you look when I do."

Fox:
The extra stretching he'd asked for was met with a sharp intake of breath and a tighter grip on Yusuke's arms. However, that grasp loosened after several moments as his body reluctantly accepted the stimulation. Kurama was lost for several seconds; soft 'ah!'s leaving his lips while Yusuke searched. "I am... no such thing," he countered through bated breath. The usual inheritance at such a remark came and went in mere seconds; because those fingers curled and Shuichi was seeing stars.

Graceful back arched and the crown of red tilted back with the first brush to his prostate. The fox's sounds grew louder each time it was touched and it wasn't long before Yusuke had that squirming, moaning creature beneath him once more. The words forced a visible shiver through the fox, and he simply couldn't stand it. Lifting himself up and pulling Yusuke down, he muted that sinful mouth with his own. The abused inner walls squeezed around the intruding digits while he suckled and nipped at the others lips.

He pulled back with a deep breath through his nose, the tip of which touched Yusuke's when their lips parted only an inch. "Do it now," a demand, not a request. A playful challenge to the heated words.

EDDE:
He was aching for it. Watching the other boy withe beneath him had him throbbing in protest of the wait; a warm groan posed again the sweet attack on his words. His focus was on making Shuichi squirm, and it allowed for the other teen to dominate his lips as much as he wanted.

He couldn't help but chuckle against the demand, melting chocolate eyes rolling over the fox's features. "Hnn," he hummed out pleasantly as he slid his fingers from the tight heat. "You can't beat it." The tease was just as hot as his words before as he positioned himself upon lifting the redhead's hips. Using the hold and position of his arms, he spread his legs further and very carefully ventured back into that heat. A soft whine speaking to his appreciation of the bit of relief the start of pursuing into him offered, he added. "Like this, you can't hide. No matter what you say, I can see you, Shuichi."

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
Even if he had a retort for such words, he lacked the ability to speak. Yusuke carefully pushed in, and the fox saw bright stars as a sharp pain shot through him. A pain that dulled into a heavy throbbing that matched the rhythm of his heartbeat. Kurama took in a gasping breath and his hold on the detective changed; arms wrapping around his neck and holding him close in a search for comfort.

Shuichi knew his face was twisted in agony, and he knew Yusuke would react to it in such a kind way. "Don't stop," he offered in a soft pant while his head rolled back, exposing the length of his neck. Kurama's hips rolled and the gradual friction was both horrible and wonderful and completely maddening. "Yusuke."

EDDE:
He really didn't like seeing Kurama in pain; especially not after... It took a bit of effort to clear his mind of the thought he didn't want to permeate it. This wasn't about the pain, and he'd just have to make it better. Freeing a hand, he drew up and ran it through crimson locks, stopping at the base of his skull after a few runs through to take gentle hold of him.

"I won't," he promised lightly as lips pressed to the exposed neck without a second thought. Gentle kisses were offered across it. As he sheathed himself fully inside the other the kisses changed into the same grooming licks he'd offered the redhead before that he had liked so much. The way the fox said his name was maddening, but instead of taking up movement like he had before, he ground himself into that precious spot inside; still wanting to make it better as his other hand took up that magnanimous stroking all over again.

Fox:
A gasping breath twitched his throat under the hot, wet muscle. Every nerve ending in his body was tingling, and his face twisted into an expression that mimicked pain; however, the softness in his eyebrows and the whines leaving his lips pointed to the bliss the fox was really in. His body was so sensitive he could hardly stand it, and the constant rolling pressure to his prostate had him quivering.

Kurama arched his back and rocked his hips with the detective's in a desperate plea for more; and once again his throat bounced. A chattering sound began in his chest and made its way passed his vocal chords into the feral gekkering of a fox. It took a moment for the sound to register with his bliss fogged mind, but quickly enough a hand pressed over his mouth to try and muffle the terrible sound.

EDDE:
A deep-set shudder rolled through him straight to the core. The odd noises were incredibly comforting; and stimulating. He lifted his chin, peeking down on the fox and looking over his attempt to hide. "You know," he started warmly, the support at his neck wavering in lieu of moving to tug at his wrist lightly while rolling his thumb over the inside of his it. "I get that I said you can't hide, but see, I don't want you to try either."

The change was precise, as he pulled back and tucked himself in once again, aim on and hitting that sensitive spot inside him. "I wanna see you, Shuichi." The offer was pointed with another well-rounded thrust that shifted into more grinding. And while he was having to talk through heavy breath of his own, he wasn't faltering.

Fox:
Emerald eyes that had clenched tightly shut at some point popped open as his wrist was taken in a warm hold. For a second, he fought against the insistent tugging, but it didn't take much for Yusuke to get his way. Kurama bit down on his lower lip instead, looking up at the teen buried so deep inside him he could barely breathe. "Yus..." The detective's name was cut off by a sharp yelp and an arch of his back. The friction alone had him seeing stars.

A heavy stab inside of him and the gekkering started anew. It grew louder, Yusuke's words creating a rush of heat through his body and pooling between his legs. He was gonna cum, already, again.

It was a slow build up, his back gradually lifting off the bed and his head rolling back against the pillow while an apology was mixed into the mewled mantra of Yusuke's name. His toes curled, and his legs squeezed tightly around his waist. "Oh, by Inari!" Kurama howled as he once more covered them in his seed.

EDDE:
The detective's breath picked right up in tune with the growing excitement of the redhead. A warm groan of the fox's human name billowed past his lips as he continually switched between light thrusts and grinding. Until Shuichi clenched around him, which caused another warm noise to pass through him. He pressed on, purely grinding for the lack of mobility he was given in Kurama's reactions.

The simple movement, the tight heat, and watching the fox's pleasure play out might have been enough for him to pull himself through the veil and dive over too, but the fox's cry forced a chill through him that cut him off considerably. A pout, heavy despite the overwhelming urge to hide it, covered his features. "You know," he started in the same way. "It'd be kinda nice if you were seeing me too." He couldn't help the rather intensely possessive feeling. "Who the Hell is Inari?"

Fox:
He was positively floating; resting under his partner with panting breaths and a bright pink face. He longed to hold Yusuke close again, to bury into his neck and take in his scent, find soothing comfort in being held by the one who could see him. This little bubble came with a distinct lack of thought, and had Kurama looking up with a perfectly confused look on his face. Furrowed brow, lips just slightly parted in an expression that simply read 'huh?'

And then it dawned on him. "Yusuke," he sighed softly while placing a hand on his cheek. Kurama laughed again, that sweet, natural laugh given not a few minutes before. "Your jealousy is endearing, but misplaced." Shifting up, he leaned in to search for a kiss. "Inari is a deity, not a person. It is no different from you calling for 'God.'" The redhead clenched and relaxed around the still unsatisfied shaft. "You have driven me to prayer." His voice was just as thick and sweet as honey. "That is not an easy feat."

EDDE:
If he hadn't just been so perfectly offended for Kurama's calling of another name the odd, empty-headed response probably would have been pretty funny; considering who it was. Heat hit his face through that pout as his jealousy was touched on. He had the right to be though, didn't he?... Or did he?

Even so, he couldn't deny the pressing of their lips together. His breath left him through a light grunt of surprise at the change around him, forcing a shudder through his veins. The heat bleeding across his face only intensified as the redhead explained. He managed to babble a bit, not really finding words through his attempt at it. Annoyed at himself, he pouted just a bit more through a light groan before leaning down and taking his lips all over again.

He was throbbing, still surrounded so deliciously by Shuichi's heat, and yet so in need of more. And still, his attention was set on the fox despite his lack of satisfaction.

Fox:
The fox warmly wrapped himself around his lover; arms around the neck and his legs crossing over the others back. "Keep going Yusuke," he offered between kisses. He locked their lips together strongly for a moment, squeezing around his shaft rhythmically. "I have offered you all of me, please return the favor."

Kurama turned from the kiss to press his lips against Yusuke's neck. "Finish inside of me."

EDDE:
Delighting in the closeness the redhead offered so freely, his own hold on the fox grew tender all over again quite easily despite the sudden tensity his own lack of knowledge had drawn through him with the misunderstanding. His want fell squarely on paying attention to Kurama's needs, but the fox wasn't making it easy to focus on that. It was far too easy to fall into pace with the draw of those lips as sharp, hot breaths took his lungs through the offer.

And it was too hard not to fall to the much more insistent call of them, especially with the added offering of that surrounding heat that managed fill him with that wonderfully frantic feeling all over again so quickly. It pulled bits of voice into his breath, barely audible through the pounding roar that filled his senses just as strongly as the fox's words did. He had no problem getting lost in that incredible presence, drowning on the redhead beneath him and paying no heed whatsoever to the blissful intensity it drew out over his features as the heat filling him to the brim bled across his face right along with it.

He'd already been so close. All it took was that rhythmic clenching around him. It was with a low, warm and appreciative moan that his body readily obeyed the delicious demand; his breath drawn to the end somehow through the short gasps he took on as his hips rocked heavily into his release. His grip took on an almost desperate cling, only able to breath out the redhead's name several times in response to the sweet nudging he'd been offered.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
It was painful. The continued thrusts were torture on the overly sensitive walls, but the fox paid it no mind. A few moments of sharp, pulling pains was an easy price to pay to watch the detective; the boyish face rounding out in a relaxed tension that created cute wrinkles in Yusuke's forehead. Soft moans of Yusuke's name escaped his lips, painting the others neck with hot breath.

"Oh~" The mewl he released was almost as cute as that expression. He could feel Yusuke fill him and another shaky moan came from kiss swollen lips. "Yusuke," he soothed, cupping the boy's cheek with the palm of his head and pulling back enough to look up into those chocolate brown eyes he was coming to adore. "I can see only you."

A strong scent hit his nose, the reek of alcohol so strong it made his nose hairs curl. He would have been happy to ignore it if not for the loud crashing and scrambling that came along with it. Shuichi jumped a little and looked over to the door they'd left open. "Perhaps we should dress?"

EDDE:
He would be happy to have dwelt on the bliss filling him to the brim as he stared down into those emerald pols. The look in his own remained soft as his breath evened and he drew it in to respond in kind. However the horribly loud and sudden noise in the kitchen shattered the feeling instantly as the stench that hit Kurama squarely first filled the air.

It pulled a chill through his veins that came close to causing a shutter of disgust to roll through him. Still, he was careful as he pulled himself from the hot grip around his shaft and turned a decidedly cold look on the door. "Right."

He was quite used to the woman being able to pull such a harsh annoyance through him, but it was the boisterous laughter of her wierdo friends along with her moving closer down the hall that had him on his feet a moment later moving to shut the door.

He should have expected they would come to bug him despite the time. It wasn't something that was new to him.

Fox:
He couldn't stop the gasp and flinch as Yusuke pulled himself free. He was in a terrible amount of discomfort, to the point he'd prefer pain over the awkward sensation his body was feeling. Wanting both to be left untouched and be filled all over again just to be rid of the stretched and empty sensation he was left with. Kurama found himself softly panting through his nose as Yusuke left the bed to shut the door.

The fox watched on lazily, enjoying the sight of his naked partner despite the circumstances. "Yushkay~!" Instantly that lazy expression turned, and he was grabbing the forgotten blanket and quickly covering himself as someone fell into the door just as the other teen was shutting it. The man or... woman? was red faced with an alcohol educed flush and didn't in the slightest bit seem bothered by the naked bodies in the room. "Yer girlfriend's loud. Way ta go kiddo!" He/She called from the small space allotted by the only slightly open door.

Girlfriend. Irritation made his upper lip twitch. "I am no woman," the fox spat, though it was more aimed at himself, not wanting to start some sort of argument with a drunken lush while he was without clothes.

EDDE:
Girlfirend. Despite his absolute annoyance as his mother's tranny friend literally fell through the door frame, an odd look drew across his lips through far too hard an effort to keep himself from laughing. It vanished in a moment however, as an image of the redhead popped into his mind from when he'd thought he was calling him 'girly'. There was a guilty shift of his eyes toward the fox for a moment.

And then there was a horrible heat that stretched over his face as he realized they'd been there long enough to hear the two of them, before he glowered down at the 'woman' for her intrusion. "Oh great, the circus is in town." All of the looks drew over his face within the span of a small moment as a cruel thought that involved kicking her rolled through his mind. "Get the Hell outta my room."

He'd only just taken his hand off the door when it burst toward him and caught him square in the face. "YUSUKE!" Atsuko didn't take care to pause for the sharp connection the door had made due to her foot as she glowered around the door at the naked teen who was now rubbing at his nose.

"We've been over this, Mom. It's: knock first, call my name, then break something." He muttered stubbornly.

"Don't give me that, you little delinquent!" His eyebrow raised through her drunken growling, more intrigued by the wording than the tone. So she was on one of her 'newly reformed' kicks again. And he could only guess what he could have done wrong at this point... Maybe she did realize he was gone for so long. His thoughts were cut off by her near immediate continuance. "Can you guess what kind of message I just got from school?!"

The 'woman' on the floor whined meekly. "Tsuko, you're standing on my hand," but was ignored as the woman continued her rant as quickly as Yusuke stiffened for the call he could only guess she'd gotten about his skipping, despite the pathetic smile he put on for what he already knew was to come.

"I thought I told you to get your ass in gear, Yusuke! You just got back, and you're already screwing up again?!"

Oh wow. She did notice I was gone. Yusuke couldn't help but be impressed. It was in small ways, but the woman had made some changes since she'd had to attend his funeral. That he still wasn't used to. "Mom, listen--"

"No, you listen, Mister." Her cheeks puffed up a bit more through her anger. "Don't think I'm gonna support your ass if you get it kicked out of school! In fact! I--" She froze there, blinking several times as she seemed to finally notice the redhead lying in his bed.

Her stature relaxed as she moved to a full stand, stepping off her friend's hand by chance as she suddenly bubbled up in a way one could tell it was where Yusuke's similar way came from. "Yusuke~" She sniffed, hiccuped, and sniffed again before breaking into a full bawl. And became nearly unintelligible. "Waddisis? How could you dodissamee~" More sniffs and hiccups before she her words were so pressed together, only Yusuke could follow them, as he spoke 'drunk mom' quite fluently. She ranted and raved through the heavy sobbing, and hurriedly her friends were at her side patting her back and rubbing her arms gentle in a coddling motion and she wailed and pointed at Kurama off to the side of her while still facing Yusuke, moving variously to point at him and stammer something angrily before returning to her previous post. At one point during, the word 'hussy' was very pointedly growled in Kurama's direction through her tears.

Through a short sigh Yusuke was drawn in to the comforting, though his bored sounding tone said he held little interest in the subject matter. He'd heard it all before, probably a million times now. "Alright Mom, calm down already... I know, I know. You want me to be a better person..." Blah, blah, blah. "No, Mom, it's Okay. You don't have to..." At one very specific point she did draw him in through her stammering as he puffed up and offered her a bubbled-up glare of his own. "And what the Hell does it have to do with Keiko?!"

Of course, she wasn't answering his questions, just droning on and on. And the next thing she had to whine out was about him standing there naked with some random floozy in his room. Which apparently, he had forgotten because his face turned beat red and he covered the important bit by grabbing his tossed shirt from its perch on the bookshelf.

A thought finally struck him that he hoped might calm her down as she continued to babble. "Mom!" He practically had to yell it to be able to be heard over her sobs, but she simmered down to hiccups and sniffles again as her friends supported her. He was one hundred and ten percent sure she'd be on her ass by now if they weren't there. "It's gonna be okay." His voice had taken on an incredibly gentle tone, and offered her a calm, reassuring look as he spoke. "I'm not gonna end up like you, so don't worry. Me and Shuichi are gonna get dressed, and then I'll come out and make you guys some coffee."

There were a few more hiccups as she looked him over, visibly calming down through his reassurance. Despite the sniffles, a pathetic smile drew across her face. "You're such a good boy, Yusuke~" she cooed warmly through a suddenly very sugary sweet tone. Peeking back around the door at the redhead, she offered a much cheerier smile to Kurama and slurred heavily toward him. "I'm sorry. You're a vvvery pretty-girl."

Moving toward the door, Yusuke offered a far too sugary smile back at her. "Okay," he offered lightly, the following said in just as sweet a tone despite the bite of the words. "Now get the Hell out." And slammed his door on the three since they'd managed to stumble lightly behind the threshold through the woman's ranting.

"Yusuke, you little bastard! Get your ass back out here, you-- I'm gonna--" The struggle of her friends dragging her away down the hallway as she growled at him could be heard, and brought a chilled, cruel little chuckle to his lips. You really had to get in little victories sometimes.

Frowning a moment later, he turned his head to look at Kurama, and offered an apologetic smile. "Soooo, that's mom." Easily feeling awkward for the entire scene, he quickly moved to pick up their clothes with a sharp frown on his lips.

Fox:
Things were escalating quite rapidly, and his silent sulking was replaced with an utterly floored expression. Yusuke's name was shouted, and the door was thrown in suddenly enough to have the naked fox jolting and hiding himself further under the sheets. Modesty was not usually a trait of his; however, the thought of Yusuke's mother knowing exactly what her son touches was a very unpleasant one. Though she didn't seem very interested in him.

Watching the two of them was... Uncomfortable. Atsuko was incoherent and frantic, but Yusuke was perfectly calm and even kind. It was clear he'd done this before, and not just once or twice. Just being witness to this scene felt intrusive. Kurama watched her stumble around emotionally as well as physically and tried to avoid a cringe when the woman broke down into a blubbering mess.

'Hussy.'

His mouth fell open and his eyes widened, the insult shocking him silent. Though, speaking probably wasn't the best course of action at the moment. Besides, watching Yusuke sooth his sobbing mother brought a painful warmth to his chest, as it reminded him of their encounter on the hospital roof top. He loved this woman very deeply, and Kurama was fascinated by Yusuke's compassion. It played out before him like a movie, and he was lost in it until Atsuko turned her attention to him again.

The fox bit down on his tongue to avoid arguing with her. It wouldn't do anyone any good.

The door closed and Yusuke was looking at him, and the fox just couldn't keep the pout off of his lips. The tiny protrusion of his lower lip and color in his cheeks that offered yet another expression that solely fit Shuichi. "She is a delight," he answered offhandedly before he added. "Do I sound so much like a woman, Yusuke?"

EDDE:
His chuckle was probably far too warm of one for what was most likely some form of sarcasm on the take of his mother. "She has her moments." The offer was genuine as he peeked a smile toward the door before rolling his eyes as another crashing sound came from a different room in the house. Despite how often he couldn't stand the woman, Kurama was certainly right about the detective's feelings for her. And despite her display, and even somewhat because of it, he knew she usually meant well. And no matter what she felt the same, if not more.

He shifted closer to Kurama after tugging the loose shirt over his head and grabbing his pants and Kurama's clothes. Looking them over he paused in contemplation. "These don't look very comfortable." He offered lightly. "Wanna borrow something of mine that's looser?" Despite the cruel way in which he'd rid himself of the woman's presence, he was a bit stuck in that calm and caring mood he'd had to offer her.

He noticed the fox's adorable expression. He couldn't help himself. Leaning down, he pecked away at the pout a few times. "Stick around me too much and you'll learn not to care what a drunk has to say." He offered knowingly. "Besides." He offered another swift, but sweet kiss to those lips. "It doesn't matter to me if you look, sound, or act like it. Don't change, Shuichi."

It only took him a moment to recognize his behaviour before he turned away quickly, scratching at the side of his chin; the cheek above flushing into a nice glow. "How ' bout them clothes?" The subject change was horribly needed. Kurama tended to make him act drunk or something lately.

Fox:
Kurama looked at his clothing and had the same thought as Yusuke. The far too tight jean had done very well in the seduction portion of their play, but squeezing into them now was an unpleasant idea. "Yes, thank you," he agreed with a light nod of his head. The short assault of kisses succeeded in making the fox smile once more, a chuckle leaving his lips.

The smile faded again, however. "So, I not only sound like a woman, but I also look and act like one as well?" The fox looked perfectly put out and turned away from any more attempts to mold lips. "Yes," he agreed at the mention of clothes. "Then I will join you in making coffee." Despite his helpful offer Kurama was still very obviously upset, and very obviously huffy.

EDDE:
Yusuke tilted his head a bit as Kurama turned away. He may not recognize it himself but living with the rapidly changing mood of a drunk offered up a great learning curve in catching changes in emotions. In fact, several of his better attributes, never mind the less attractive ones, we're things he had to thank his mother for no matter how horrible she could be. Of course, the question gave a clue too perfect even for his usually dense nature not to catch.

It was hard, but he avoided a laugh for how the comment he hadn't meant to slip in such a way wasn't taken as it was intended. "That's not what I said." He couldn't hide the humor in his tone for it as he said as much though. He sifted through his clothing to find another nicely loose fitting t-shirt for Kurama. It accompanied a pair of sweats. The outfit wouldn't compliment the fox all that well, but it would sure as Hell be more comfortable.

Upon sitting on the bed again and tugging on a pair of sweats himself--the thought of the comfort was too good to deny right now--he looked back over the redhead. "You're not girly, Shuichi." He didn't know how much would be needed to placate the fox, but he was pretty good at giving compliments when it suited him. "Yer very manly." While the comment might have sounded a little patronizing for the context, the grin that flew over his face said the next thought was genuine. "And pretty bad-ass too." It was a compliment he'd given in earnest before as well.

Fox:
The offered shirt was pulled over his head, and he flipped his hair through the collar with an unintentional flourish. The action didn't help in his defense, but it showed the very pretty marks left over his neck. Small, pink blemishes were scattered across his throat and behind his ear.

Pulling on the sweatpants was a bit more difficult. When he stood to pull the waist band over his hips a sharp jolt ran down his spine and made him twitch. He really should have stopped their play sooner, but the earlier bliss was more than worth it. Kurama sat back down with a bit more care. The patronizing words pulled a huff from his nose, but once he settled his gaze on Yusuke his annoyance melted away. That grin suited him perfectly. "There will come a time when flattery will not be enough to get you out of trouble, Yusuke," he warned with a heart-felt chuckle before he pressed their lips together.

"Now then, tell me," the fox started. Standing this time was much easier, the spiking pain predicted and worked through until only a nagging ache remained. "What can I do to assist you?"

EDDE:
Watching the redhead's movements had him noting his condition. But he wanted to seem okay, and he wasn't really willing to separate himself from their time together to go deal with the riot that was sure to continue when he did go out there. Smiling into the kiss, he asked once they'd pulled apart, "Yea? When's that?" He offered a cheeky, almost giddy chuckle as he continued. "I don't doubt it. But I don't think I've ever gotten away with so much in my life. " he was teasing, but it was true.

After standing and pulling his own pants on, he peeked at the redhead from the corner of his eye. "Besides," he stated again, blushing and turning his sight toward the door as he scratched at his cheek a bit. "You heard me wrong." And again, that cheeky grin fell over his face despite it not being fully turned to Kurama. "I know for a fact I heard me say that it didn't matter because I like you the way you are. " It was true. That was what he'd heard in his own words.

After saying as much, he was quick to pull the door open to escape the small admission, his face easily glowing with heat. "C'mon," he added quickly. "Just coming with to help me deal with those asses'll be enough. "

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
A bit of color came to his own cheeks at Yusuke's praise. For once, the thought of seeming female wasn't a horrible one. Not when Yusuke liked him just the way he was. "Yusuke," he started while striding to the others side. A warm smile lit up his face as the fox lifted a hand to cup the detective's cheek and guide him into a long, soft kiss. Their lips touched and pressed together but Shuichi pulled back before either of them could try for more. "Thank you," he said so very softly. "You have given me a much better memory, and I will cherish it."

To escape his own admission the fox slipped out of the room and into the hallway with only the slightest hint of a limp. Slim fingers brushed through his hair during the trek down the hall and hoped it didn't look too out of place. Your hair is quite damaged, Kurama. His fingers ran through the crimson strands a little faster, but he wasn't able to tame the fluffy mane that was disheveled in classic sex hair.

"Der's tha woman of the hour!" Kurama's mood grew sour when he looked at the transvestite practically sprawled out over the kitchen table. "I am a man," he stated quite firmly as he crouched to pick up the tea candles that had been knocked to the ground.

"A course you are," the 'woman' slurred. "I know da perfect plastic surgeon. I could give'm a call if ya-"

Kurama felt his upper lips curl and tension bubbled in his shoulders. "I am a man," he spat out once more, his words venomous but his stance and expression neutral.

EDDE:
One could practically see the steam stemming from the raven-haired teen's ears, as the heat that was plastered so heavily over his face had even bled into his chest in the short moment it took the fox to recall him. Despite the incredible want to escape the situation, he couldn't help but be pleased by the outcome of his failure. It was still horribly embarrassing to have said such a thing, and perfectly uncomfortable in retrospect. But the smile that graced his companion's lips, and the light in brilliant emerald eyes, offered up a beautiful picture of life he'd only recently become privy to that made up for any inquietude instantly.

And the kiss wasn't half bad either. Though he was a bit disappointed in its shortness. If it hadn't been though, it was pretty much inevitable that it would land them back in a spot neither of them--especially the spent redhead-- had the fortitude to take on.

Captivated through the display, he had to blink the daze away as Shuichi moved on without him. He followed squarely a moment later as he realized the other teen was approaching the lion's den alone.

A light pat to Kurama's shoulder was administered as he walked by him, the heightened cheeriness he was exuding easily more exuberant than his usual attempt at calming things down, or riling things up; whatever the case may be. "Don't bother." He offered though warm chuckle. "You won't get anywhere unless you're willing to show off the goods. They ain't comin' back from this trip for a loooong time." He peeked over his shoulder to add a bit of wisdom that most likely shouldn't be taken lightly. "And if you aren't careful, one of them is gonna end up checking for themselves."

The pull of attention was an offer to allow the fox to follow him into the kitchen. Wary on a learned level as he easily noted to himself that his mother wasn't present, it didn't take long at all to find her as he walked into a wall of smoke upon entering the kitchen. The initial reaction was slight annoyance, waving away the harsh drag his mother had conveniently blown his way as he rounded the door frame. Following almost instantly, and weighing insanely heavily on him, was the realization that he hadn't had a single cigarette since a little before Shuichi had shown up on his doorstep. He looked over the woman as she stood staring blankly into the fridge puffing away at her cigarette while he flicked on the burner and set a newly filled pot atop it.

There was no helping it. Kurama had made such an immeasurable impact on a mood that hadn't been allowed to go sour, there was no stopping his playful nature from breaking loose after all the sweetness, and seriousness, and anything other than it that had gone on before the mood change.

Reaching over, he plucked the package directly from the woman's shirt pocket with that silly shit-eating grin of his stretching from ear to ear. As expected, the reaction was instant as the woman puffed up and swiped for them in a full miss as he pulled it easily out of her reach. "What the Hell do you think you're doing?!"

"C'mon, you can share. Don't be a bitch." The tone of his voice quite easily spoke volumes of the fight he was suddenly looking for.

"Give 'em back you lil' bastard! And watch your fucking mouth!" The laugh he let off as she all but fell against him in her drunken attempt to reach around him as he put his back to her to pull them away further was perfectly mocking. "Dammit Yusuke, I mean it!" Through a growl, the woman wormed her arm around his throat and quite instantly took him into a headlock. "You're too young to be smoking! Where. Did I. Go wrong. With you?" While the headlock had been allowed by the teen, the sharp choke of a several tightenings of the arm that accented the sharp words at the end was definitely not faked.

It didn't stop him though, as when she let up, despite the bit of red that had hit his face for the lack of breath, he pulled himself back into a stand. She didn't seem prepared for this as she all but flopped against him and let off a surprised sound. "Gee, Mom, just look at the great example I have and I'm sure you can figure that one out."

The drink induced red-faced woman gave off another rowdy 'grr' for the understood jab of it and tightened her hold all over again, only this time it was to all but climb up the boy as he pulled both arms up high and began tugging a smoke from the pack. Although she did still have the toes of one foot planted on the ground. In the same moment, she reached for anything she could put her free hand on to up the ante of the teen's cheeky little game. The woman was certainly taller than him, but the position he'd put himself in made it just barely impossible to snatch the box away.

It happened to be a wooden spoon, and switched from a mostly verbal assault of her own to rapping the thing against his head with nearly each word, if not syllable, of her retort. "Un.grateful. Little. Fuck!" The chiding laughter the boy had in answer progressed the half-hearted beating of the blunt object. "Get yer own, dammit!"

The struggle was valiant, and it took more than a few moments for the woman to realize that with one hand beating at him and the other holding on to him, she had no more to reach with. As she hurled a few more insults at him, the drunkards in the dining room, who were leaning over so far in their seats to look in it was amazing they hadn't fallen over, chimed in. "Oooh~ Here we go again."

"Fifty bucks on Tsuk--AH!" As the second threw 'her' fist up in excitement for claim on the bet, she flopped straight down. Whining as the other giggled sharply for the blunder, their attention was quickly drawn back to the kitchen.

"Fuckin'-A, Mom! You're breaking them! I ain't goin' out to get you more!" Yusuke had managed to get one in his mouth, but the spoon had cluttered to the floor in her swift attempt to steal it back that ended with the front half of it dangling from the half that was sitting between his lips. Despite the complaint, his tone was still fully lighthearted. He spat it out quickly and reached up for another.

But he seemed to decide to turn the tables on the woman and see if she'd fall for an easy one. "Hey, thanks for the smoke." The offer was almost pleasant.

And she seemed to take the bait for a moment despite the sharp hold she still had on him. A bright smile lit up her face as she answered in just as honeyed of a tone, "Sure Sweety." But the look melted away through a blink and turned perfectly fierce all over again. "What do you think you're pulling?!" She was managing to choke him again through an attempt at bringing him down.

"Ack--I'm--sorry," he squeaked out falsely through the grasp. "Calm the fuck down, wouldja?"

Seeming to finally notice the choke hold she had, she stepped off unevenly, pausing bodily to make sure she wasn't going to topple over despite the lack of sway she thought she had, but didn't. A moment later her hands landed on her hips in sudden claim of triumph. "Guess you'll think twice next time..." she trailed off, a finger poking up to her lips as she fell into a sudden deep thought.

The detective quirked an eyebrow as he watched the woman completely lose her place on what they'd even been fighting about. Recognizing as much, he let off a cheeky snigger and stuffed the pack in his own shirt pocket after tugging out another. Flicking the lighter, he mocked, "Oh yea, you sure showed me."

Through an exuberant chuckle, the woman knocked the raven-haired boy in the back of the head heard enough to force it down a bit. "DAMN RIGHT!" As the boy righted himself, tears in his eyes and waved at his tongue which he'd apparently bitten through the blow, the woman threw her arms up in the air and cheered, "OKAY! WHO'S HUNGRY!" But then promptly sauntered back out to the dining room with her hands behind her head and flopped a bit too gracefully into a chair at the table.

And that was when her attention turned to Kurama. However, she had that sweet smile on her face again as she asked in such a sweet way just as the tea kettle began to whistle. "So how long have the two of you been screwing around?"

"MO-THER !"

Fox:
"Right..." the fox watched the women warily as his partner spoke. His eyes widened and he blinked several times. "What?" he asked in a deadpan tone towards the second half of the warning. His lips pulled into a slight frown as he watched Atsuko's friends hang on each other for support and doing a terrible job of it. This was usually a situation he would simply remove himself from, however, he simply couldn't leave Yusuke to suffer this alone. In order to attain some distance between himself and the apparently curious trannies gazing at him with far too much adoration, the fox followed into the kitchen.

A wall of smoke attacked his senses. His nose burned and he felt a wetness form in his eyes, but he waved his reactions away while physically doing so to the smoke. The scene that began to play out before him halted any attempts at speaking. It was both sad and comical, and again something he would usually walk away from. But the delight on Yusuke's face was more than enough of a prize.

He glanced over when he found the brunette transvestite standing beside him. Though swaying would be a better term. She raised her hand in a declaration of a bet, and he side stepped to avoid being hit in the process... and nearly jumped out of his skin when a large, masculine hand grabbed firmly between his legs. " 'e is a boy!"

The fox sprung away from the unwanted touch, bubbled up in the way Yusuke might. "Excuse me madam," he stated with a calm but hissing tone. "Please refrain from such advances."

"He called me Madam!" When they both swooned Kurama realized his grave mistake as suddenly, they were both grasping for him. With his usual vulpine grace, Shuichi dipped down and hopped back several steps to avoid being sandwiched between the two of them. During this endeavor he missed the end of the family feud, and was surprised to see Atsuko sitting at the table.

And her words were worse than the groping.

For several moments the fox stood with his jaw dropped. There were sounds coming from his open mouth as if he were attempting to find words. Finally, he decided responding to a drunk lush was not his priority and simply sulked back into the kitchen. Ignoring the whistle and 'cute butt' that came from one of them.

"Perhaps our nights are better suited at my home," he stated with stiff shoulders in his attempt to remain calm under the touchy circumstances. "I don't suppose putting them to sleep is an option? It wouldn't take much."

EDDE:
The teen was enjoying a dizzying buzz of a nicotine high that coursed through his veins, puffing away at the cigarette only held between his lips as he breathed it in, and teeth as he parted them to exhale as he poured and stirred the instant coffee mix together. He hadn't witnessed the violation the redhead had suffered through the fight with Atsuko. Despite the good mood, he wouldn't have handled it lightly. "Can't say I didn't warn you." The tease was grinned out around the cigarette before he plucked it from between his lips and ashed it into the sink. "But I got no problems with that." Although, he might miss the chaos that ensued in his home during the late hours of the night and early hours of the morning for how very dull things had been when he wasn't around the fox.

"Want some?" The question was added as he gestured toward the cups he'd lined up and mixed already. He'd made one for himself as well.

"Hey~" the sing-songy tone of his mother wafted toward them from the dining room as he ran the end of the spent cigarette under the faucet and tossed it in the trash. "Get your sweet ass back in here and answer me." The teasing tone was easily pointed toward the jeer that had been tossed Kurama's way in his leaving.

"Leave'm alone, Mom." Yusuke peeked his head out to offer her that bubbled up glare of his, leaving the coffee unattended for a moment in order to do it.

"Oh come on, Yusuke. It's not that hard of a question." She bubbled up on her own into a pout that mimicked the one the raven-haired boy had shown on many occasions. "I just wanna know how long you two have been screwing."

"Thats not what you asked!" He blinked a bit, the repeated variation of the question made him think on it. And his answer wasn't necessarily one meant for the crowd as he tipped his finger against his chin since the asked question forced him to think about it. The answer sort of popped out on its own while he was distracted with the thought. "It's only been a few days. A little over a week, I guess." He was answering the first question. "I've learned lot more about him than I ever did before though..." He paused before his finger poked up in the air and a smile too sweet for his face accompanied his words. "Although most of it is forms screwing around, though, so it's not like it's that big of an accomplishment." A cheeky chuckle followed as he added, fully for himself. "I knew he was a screamer."

The compliments akin to things such as "Ooh, you dog," that followed his monologue were given purely by Atsuko's friends.

In fact, the woman had a sharp look on her face that almost completely hid the fact that she was drunk as he finished.

Fox:
"Yes, I should have taken it more seriously." He just hadn't been expecting a hand between his legs. "Yes, that would be lovely," he answered with a slight nod of his head. "Here, allow me," the fox offered with an innocent flow in his voice. Just a little something, a tiny bit of power sprinkled into three of the cups. The fox had no desire to return to the lion's den, still, he led the way into the living room and handed out the cups accordingly.

The question was ignored. Or rather, he attempted to ignore it until Yusuke opened his mouth to actually answer it. The detective was cut off just before the word 'screamer' but the fox's palm pressing firmly over his mouth. "Yusuke," he hissed, looking at him with a sharp look. "Such information should remain private."

"Don't be such a spoil sport!" The complaint was followed by a heavy handed slap on his ass, folowed by a heavy groping. Kurama just managed to bite back a loud yelp by clenching his teeth, instead a tiny squeak left his nose. A sharp pain radiated up his spine and he preened to the point even the ends of his hair curled. "Would you please refrain from touching me?"

"Come on, I groped that cute package of yours just a second ago~" The tranny's words were slurred as she fell over and gazed up at him with alcohol hazy eyes. "Ya didn't squeal about like that-"

"Ooooh I get it!" Her friend collapsed on top of the other sideways. "He's the bottom," she said with a snort followed by a fit of giggles. She was tossed off by the friend who turned to face Kurama. "I'm so sorry sweetie. I got a good remedy for a sore ass hole."

The fox sputtered and felt heat rise high over his face. "I have no need for your-"

"Think he's leaking?"

"Excuse me?!" Humiliation was clear across his face, not so much for the words spoken.... but for the fact it was true. He could feel Yusuke's seed dripping out of him, and was thankful for how baggy his borrowed pants were.

EDDE:
A fierce feeling of possession had rolled through him as the woman smacked kurama's ass, doubled, if not tripled for the news of further groping having taken place out of sight. He was visibly seething before he was able to get a word in edge wise for the far too quick women. "Hey! Cut it out." His arms coiled around the redhead from behind as he offered the two a look that could only be described as dangerous. Things were getting out of hand. And it was quickly souring his mood. "And keep your damn sausage fingers to yourself!"

"Ooooh~ scary~" they practically cooed together as they held each other for support.

The one piped up again. "You really care 'bout'im don't you, Yusuke?" The question brought a tinge of heat all its own to his face.

"W-what?"

The other chimed in. "Yusuke, you never told me you liked boys before."

He tensed, still holding the Fox in his arms as he hollered "I don't like boys!" Through a perfect snarl. But he had to pause, tilting his head and eye line in the redhead's direction just after. "Er... I didn't think I did..." Confusion muddled his features for the moment it took for the next accusation to pop out.

"Ohhh. I see. So, you thought he was a girl too then." The remark was way too pointed, yet drawn out as if there had been a revelation.

"Oh, how sweet. Even though he did, it doesn't matter anymore because he loves him anyway." They both cooed out a horrible octave of 'aww~' through the apparent mind theatre they'd entered.

"Hey! Shut the Hell up, you freakin' morons!"

Fox:
The rising irritation fell to a simmer when Yusuke's arm wrapped around him. The hold was warm and protective, and despite the pride that dictated a perfect posture, the fox leaned into it. Just a bit. The heat coming to Yusuke's cheeks was a pleasant sight when in reaction to such a question. It brought a warmth over his expression, that quickly soured as the 'conversation' continued.

"Did you?" The question came from an uncharacteristic blurt and a curious expression on his face; wide eyed and raised eyebrows. The look was quickly remedied into a pursed lipped shyness.

The friends leaned forward and held their breath in anticipation. Near bouncing with it.

EDDE:
A sharp jump to his insides took to form bodily as the fox joined in the question. His eyes widened and a nervous lilt trailed across his lips. "Wha-- I di-- ugh. Of course not!" There was a threat, still so fresh in his mind as the heat over the scratch he took to his cheek as his eyes shifted away quickly, and he muttered. "I mean... ya know..."

"Ooooh, I think he did."

"He must have! What a horrible liar!" They laughed, and he wasn't even able to muster irritation at them through his avoidance.

Fox:
The cute expression faded as his eyelids lowered and his lips thinned. "I see," he stated with a deadpan tone before pulling out of Yusuke's gentle hold with his chin tilted up ever so slightly. Irritation tightened his stance, and his eyes shut to hide the fire in his eyes. "Excuse me, but I believe it is time for me to retire for the evening." After setting down his cup of coffee Kurama turned to stroll nonchalantly down the hallway toward the bedroom.

"Ooooh, you're in trouble~~"

EDDE:
The growl he let off as Kurama stiffened was for the women who were only making the situation worse. The sour mood forcing him to finally buck up to the accusation. "Yea, so what if I did at first? It doesn't have anything to with anything!"

He was pulled away from, and the chill the reaction pulled through him was easily unsettling. Aw, c'mon Kurama," he whined a bit pathetically as the redhead took off. "Don't be like that."

"Awwww don't go~" the women's attitudes took on a disappointed turn of their own.

Ignoring them as he bubbled up poutily, he wasn't about to make things any better for himself. "Come on, you can't blame me . You--" His saving grace was being cut off by his mother alone.

"Yusuke Urimeshi." He nearly jumped out of his skin for the calm but loud interruption of the already chastising tone. No one had seemed to notice his mother's silence through the excitement, or the fact that she was sitting there seething over his new relationship the entire time, with incredible focus for how much she'd obviously imbibed with her friends. But the jolt was for the thought on Kurama's wrath having been set firmly in his mind rather than the small jolt her voice had given him.

He was immediately pulled into the incredibly hypocritical lecture as she poked her nose in where it didn't belong. It didn't take long for him to visibly turn off as if he were changing the channel in his mind. Of course, every channel was the same, and the boredom in his features showed just how many times he'd seen this particular episode.

She made mention of quite a few things he paid little attention to. Such as how she was disappointed in him for following in her footsteps; although making point that she was glad she at least didn't have to worry about him knocking some girl up. She complained about the fact that he couldn't even keep up in school as it was, and didn't need the kind of distraction a 'boyfriend' carried. That part caught his attention though. He and Kurama weren't boyfriends as far as he knew. He figured one of them at least had to say it before it was true... but he wasn't sure.

As he contemplated the woman went on, sinking in her seat every few moments as she did. She even went as far as to warn him that she'd better not be kept up at all hours of the night with their loud fucking. Of course, she had no trouble putting her words as crudely as possible. And then she said, "and just what the Hell are you gonna do about..." That was all. She trailed off in that sentence and left him standing there listening to dead air.

When he looked back at her, having turned his attention down on his coffee and variously on other things in the room as she spoke, he recognized that she'd had the nerve to pass out on him mid lecture. He looked at the other two, who had been quiet for far too long for comfort and realized they were also unconscious. And while he remembered Kurama's earlier question, it did little to help his mood for it. Growling shortly for the sudden, and more annoying than it should have been lack, he stomped off for his room.

Yusuke stopped outside the door, a frown creasing his lips as he stared it down for a moment. The redhead had shown how very bothered he was by people thinking he was a woman. It was easily why he'd stopped when he had previously, and probably why he felt so guilty for how thoughtlessly he'd handled the more recent one. Sighing, he stepped into the room and looked over the redhead. Through a natural need to lighten things, he offered a little smile and announced, "well they won't be bugging us any time soon. Thanks to you. That was a great idea."

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
While Yusuke was lectured the fox returned to the detective's room with a perfectly perturbed look on his face. His mind was alight with humiliation and a deep feeling of betrayal in the pit of his stomach. An irrational emotion but it existed, nonetheless. He tried to will it away and allow the expected irritation to cover it.

It was habit to find his clothes and carefully fold them. An effect of his 'good boy' demeanor. The fox sniffed and scrunched his nose at the thick stench of smoke clinging to his clothes, and after checking the sheets for any mess Kurama climbed over the bed to push open the window. The fresh air was gladly sucked in and let out in a silent, relieved sigh. "The effects will last for a few hours, and I suspect their intoxication levels will leave them unconscious for the rest of the night." His words were short and clipped as he slid back off the bed.

"I should return home; Mother will be worried if I stay much longer." Though, he'd already been given permission to spend the night.

EDDE:
A learned response; from dealing with drunkards, and who honestly knew what else at this point, his whole life. It was that same response that had him knowing exactly how to deal with the woman properly despite the sudden random shifts in her mood when he needed to. Well, it was more like a hypersensitivity. It helped that he already understood how the mood of the night had shifted with the events that had unfolded. And, of course, that there was bound to be... negative was an understatement, but negative emotions nonetheless for everything that had gone on most recently.

The smile was forced to remain on his lips as he watched the redhead through his movements. He didn't comment on whatever he'd used to put those bastards to sleep. Instead, his focus pulled to his want to leave. He couldn't blame him, really. If this shit weren't a part of his everyday life, he doubted he'd want to stick around either. But something told him it wasn't just the drunkards that made him want to leave. And he couldn't blame him for that either.

Still that hypersensitivity, those problem-solving skills he didn't always have the ability to pull forth were in high gear. "C'mon, Shuichi," he offered in start. "Your mom didn't want me walking home alone last night and it was barely even dark out. I doubt she'd want you to..." He thought on it for a moment. "You can call her if you want so she knows you're still here." Honestly, it was an offer he wasn't expecting to be taken up on.

Despite that, he added, "I'm sorry." It was perfectly genuine. And while he might not always... usually... know what it was he'd done wrong given his tenacious personality, and didn't elaborate further, he knew exactly what he was apologizing for right now. Not that he expected it to be taken so lightly. "You know, of all the stupid ideas in a long, long list of stupid ideas, a sleepover at my house is probably the dumbest."

But that wasn't what he was really sorry for. "It's a proven fact I'm a pretty big dumbass. And the idiots out there are even stupider. You're too smart to let a bunch of retards who can barely tie their shoes without falling on their faces tell you who you are." He realized that the comparison included him apparently being unable to tie his shoes in such a way, but it was a valid point as far as he could tell.

Fox:
His expression was deadpan when he turned to look at his partner. "You and I both know that I will be fine," he stated simply. But as he gathered his clothes the guilty tone in Yusuke's apology was noted, and he set them back down. At the very least it seemed the fox was willing to listen.

"I do not care what they think of me Yusuke, their opinions of me are insignificant," if not irritating. "However, I find your thoughts on me to be quite important." His frown deepened. "And it seems your opinion is that I look like a woman." Kurama's words were sharp and unpleasant. "I am not a woman!"

EDDE:
Of course, he knew the redhead would be fine. He wasn't that thick. His attention to detail had been firmly planted on the woman's unneeded worry. But he didn't correct him. The news of his apparently valued opinion was.... well, he wasn't sure what the revelation was; shocking, maybe. Something else too, and definitely wrong in its added assumption.

Still, he couldn't bring himself to correct him on it as an exuberant breath was sucked in and huffed out; during which he plopped onto his ass with his back facing the fox. A light closing of his eyes and upward tilt of his chin as He leaned back on fisted hands was needed as he hummed out the rather heavy need to think on his response. Though it came out as more of a groan; one pointed purely at himself. Despite the initial need, his response came on its own. "You know, you're a totally different person to me than when we met, Shuichi." The pause was a debate on whether to clarify, and he decided to. "And I don't just mean since we started messing around." Lips pursed into a tight pout and twitched from one side of his face to the other.

"Ugh." He just couldn't figure out how to say what he was going for. That was because he couldn't get the off question out of his mind. A hand rolled through his hair from bangs to back through a sigh as he semi-gave up at the moment.

The small pout remained, but it wasn't quite the same as usual, as he turned his head for those large eyes of his to land on the fox from under his lashes. "You really care that much what I think?" The question was incredibly muted for the normal flamboyance of such a bold personality. It wasn't disbelieving, and it only barely bordered on shy. And he still didn't know what the simple sentence had made him feel... But for someone as smart as Kurama... Someone who seemed to know just about everything Yusuke probably never would, plus tons more than that, to find the kind of value in Yusuke, of all people's opinions... Hell. At this point he wasn't even fully sure he'd heard him right.

Fox:
An eyebrow was raised as the detective took a seat on the bed. He thought of doing the same, but his little fit demanded he remain tall. That, and his backside was demanding he not abuse it anymore. Yusuke's first attempt to explain was met with the continued stare, a stare that faltered when his partner looked up at him that way. He could see the cogs turning in the others head, and while he still remained irritated, he simply couldn't ignore that look. One that cried for attention.

"Of course, I do," he answered, tone still clipped but his voice over all was softer. "Your thoughts mean a great deal to me, Yusuke." Still unwilling to sit, the fox leaned down to press their lips together. It too was clipped and short, but it was an assurance he needed to offer. "Which is why I would like you to finish your thought," Kurama continued as he stood straight once more and looked down on the detective with sharp eyes. "I shouldn't blame you, because?"

EDDE:
Despite the way the kiss seemed less than sweet considering the ones they'd shared before, the words offered with it made it great. A small smile drew across his lips as he continued to look up at him in that way for a moment despite the sharp tone in Shuichi's, before his eyes drifted away and heat touched his face. Finish his thought. Well, he'd already done that. He decided to share. "You know, no one's ever really taken me very seriously," he started, chuckling lightly through the continuance. "So, I figure 'why be serious'?"

He seemed to fall back into his normal tone of presence as he turned that smile back on him. "But I guess I gotta sometimes." He managed to sound perfectly exasperate by this despite the fact that he couldn't seem to stop smiling, which had everything to do with the redhead he was looking at. "But I already told you what I was gonna say. You're not like you used to be." He shrugged, not sure really what else to say since he had already said it.

Fox:
His anger was very quickly dissolving under those big doe eyes, but the fox continued to look unimpressed. He'd made a show of his threat on hanging neck island, and he would keep to it. The issue being, he no longer had the desire to punish Yusuke for his transgression. "The way you look at me may have changed Yusuke, but my appearance remains the same." In his eyes, the aggravation, the indignation and the tiny spark of betrayal swirled away into a perfectly devious gleam. The perfect redemption.

Shuichi placed his hand on the others shoulder to push him down into the bed with only a little more force than needed. "Do you still believe I look like a woman?" the fox asked with a low growl, his knee lifting to rest on the bed to lean over his partner.

EDDE:
The outlook seemed to make him think about it. It made way too much sense for his liking. Mainly because he couldn't see Kurama as a girl. He might be able to see some of the things he did as girly, but Hell flowers were girly, so that made sense, right? Still, that didn't mean it made him a girl... Everything in his head was just going in circles, and he really didn't know how to explain that to the redhead.

Whatever. It made sense in his own mind. Maybe he should just tell him he didn't think he looked like a girl. Any explaining he might try to do would probably just get him more in trouble.

He was pulled from his contemplation at the hand on his shoulder. And he blinked a bit at the look in those emerald pools. Something that seemed a little off. So was the touch, which he didn't fight against in the least in going down, simply pushing his arms out further to the side so he was no longer leaning against them in holding himself up.

The question; the tone was what caught hold of him though. He knew it was a bad idea. He knew he really shouldn't tease Kurama about this in the least. But the tone drew something up in him. Something incredibly familiar that he never really had the presence of mind to quell. The smile that had pulled away at the odd behavior strung out into a light smirk, an eyebrow popping up and that far too cocky air that offered up a ridiculous challenge he didn't really want to give. "Not usually."

Fox:
The fox pursed his lips together and a flash of that irritation returned. "Wrong answer, Yusuke," came the low growl before he shoved them both forward up the bed with the force of his kiss. Their lips were shoved together and instantly Yusuke's were assaulted with sharp, painful nips.

Kurama lifted his other leg to rest on the bed between his partner's legs. His thigh pressed up against the others groin while his hands were quick and harsh, but yet somehow gentle and kind. Yusuke had offered him a wonderful memory that he would cherish throughout his lifetimes, and he was determined to offer the same no matter how annoyed he was with the detective. So as his hands slipped up the loose shirt with cruel scratches, he pressed the heat of his palms over the expanse of skin.

"Perhaps you would have preferred it if I were female," the growling continued as the sharp nips moved down the jaw line and against his neck. "You don't like boys after all." That was it... that was the betrayal he'd felt before and saying it out loud caused an unpleasant clench in his gut.

EDDE:
There was a flash of satisfaction that rolled through him despite the fact that he hadn't really wanted to annoy Kurama further. The returned irritation was exactly what he'd been looking for in his response "Hmph!" The surprised noise muffled against the redhead's lips for the sharp connection; as well as the sharp stutter it rolled through his veins as he flinched a bit against the teeth on his lips. His hands came up, grasping the fox on the arms just below his shoulders. He wasn't pressing against him, that was simply where they landed.

You're pretty dumb for a smart guy.

The thought of having said as much raced through his mind for the accusation. It was very similar. He hadn't thought about it like that at all. Hell, he'd barely even thought about it at all. It hadn't really been an issue with him. In a sense, he'd simply been swept up in it all, not thinking or caring about the connotations of their relationship. And the one time he did stop to think about it, it simply hadn't mattered.

You can't keep that lame brain of yours focused on school already. You don't need the distraction of a boyfriend.

Heat swelled in his chest and draped over his face. The recent words of a drunken lecture didn't help the confusion already rolling through him for the mixture of one-sided conversation and rough touches he was being assaulted with. Touches that were pooling that heat rather decently in his groin; too easily. But he liked it. And he knew he liked it.

And before he could even think to catch himself, the answer pulled from his chest as easily as the stuttered breath that had his chin lifting away from the attack of those teeth and a small roll roving through his hips. It was a far less refined repeat as the look he landed over his chin in attempt of seeing the redhead was a bit sharp itself, and even; a bit pissy itself. "Don't be stupid."

No, it wasn't Kurama that was being stupid. It was the entire situation that had led to this. Now that he thought, he knew it.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
The non-answer was taken poorly. His worries were irrational, and he knew they were but... His heart was clenching at the thought that perhaps Yusuke did wish he were a woman, that the time they shared was despite his gender. It had a burning begin in the corners of his eyes. A sensation he quickly pushed away. "Is that so?" Kurama's voice returned to the dead-pan tone.

The fox pushed Yusuke's shirt up and taking his arms with it. The fabric was left tangled around the detective's elbows. "Then I will show you what no woman can," the declaration came with a low growl that vibrated his lips against the thin skin over Yusuke's throat. The rough touching remained firm, but softened into an adoring pet as his palms trailed down his sides. His right hand slipped under the waist band of the others sweatpants to tightly grip a firm cheek.

EDDE:
Probably the most confusing part about this was that Kurama was obviously mad at him, or at the very least upset over it, but he was doing something that Yusuke would think pointed differently. At least, that was what it seemed like given the bits of euphoria that had started trickling through his veins; small bits that had him shivering lightly for the rough treatment turned somewhat sweet. Small bits that had his brain, which seemed to be in too high a gear for him to handle, winding down a little too far in the focus it took on that feeling.

He wasn't sure what he'd said that garnered the question, but was quickly swelling past the point of caring. He still liked the way they had done this before. It wasn't so much the control of it, either. It was the difference. Not one he could honestly put to words, but that difference bled through his features as it had only a few times before when they'd first started doing these things. An almost meek look as he peeked up at the Fox from under the fabric of his shirt, having to fight with it in attempt to pull it off further for where his focus had landed so squarely. Kurama and the old hag we're right. His multitasking skills left much to be desired.

His hips rolled with the touch as the attention of his eyes drew from the redhead above him up toward the shirt for moments at a time. Stubborn; he wanted it off, because he wanted to return those touches. And he realized again that that was what he liked so much about before. That ability to explore the redhead's body and find those perfect ways that made him react so well. The words came out with a warm huff of air. Perhaps an attempt to keep up that bratty bucking he'd been doing in return to Kurama's tone. But if it was, it failed miserably as it came out far too sweetly. "So show me."

Fox:
The sweet tone seemed to sooth the fox's anger. The sharp bites turned into long, slow laps of his tongue as well as softly suckling kisses that traveled down his neck and over the collar bone. "I will not let your impatience interfere again, Yusuke," he warned, his own tone changing. While his worries remained, and perhaps even grew stronger, he could not ignore the way he was spoken to as it was... comforting.

Kurama shifted his leg in order to pull the others pants down, leaving them at Yusuke's ankles to be kicked off the rest of the way. "You will never forget my touch Yusuke," he purred, pressing his clothed thigh against his partner's now naked groin, "the touch of a man." A familiar seed was plucked and tossed onto the sheets. Their flower grew and the fox swiped his fingers through the nectar.

Slick fingers wrapped loosely around the others shaft, offering a bit of affection without much satisfaction. Earlier, he'd cut his exploration short for the sake of the detective, but this time he would have his turn in full. He could wait. Even with his own growing erection, he would wait until he was satisfied Yusuke really would remember his touch. A man's touch.

Shuichi's free hand ran along the detective's side, nails only lightly scraping over the skin; while the fox kissed down until he could scrape his teeth over a perked nipple. He didn't linger. Instead wide, open-mouthed kisses sucked over his rib cage.

EDDE:
He couldn't feel the uptick in his heart rate through the heavy throbs of excitement that were steadily worsening through him bodily. He didn't think he was being impatient, but there was a good chance he was wrong. His struggle with the shirt ceased, as it was getting him nowhere. But even as he tried to collect himself enough to actually think properly, tongue, and sucking lips pulled difficult trembles through curling fingertips.

There weren't words; not that he had to offer back, at least. His voice already sounded distorted through the force of those throbs in his ears, even as light noises were being pulled through his nose against tightly clenched lips through even the simple touches. Despite that distortion, the redhead's words were perfectly crisp, and only served to excite him more. It wasn't a frantic, rapid growth as it had been previously. It was a steady climb that had him swelling in the fox's grasp through a thin veil of surprise despite the fact that he'd very much been following the other's movements quite closely.

A heavy thrill allowed for a lengthy hum to stutter through his nose as that grip was taken on him. His knees pulled up, tugging his feet from the loose-fitting material the rest of the way. He had no idea why his jaw was clamped so tightly, or why his lips had sealed together so flawlessly.

But curled fingers had found fabric, and were tugging bit by bit to loosen the hold the shirt had on him. Once the shirt was past his elbows it was simple to pull an arm free and push the rest of it off the other. And despite not having thought he was being impatient before, freed hands slipped down to reach for the fabric hiding the redhead's skin beneath it. And once freed, his lips parted, and a perfectly heated huff bated past them in the same shudder it had pulled through his nose. There was too much to focus on at once, and words weren't seeming to help him in the least currently. So still they weren't offered as an appreciation pooled through his eyes as he tugged up enough to reveal skin close enough to run his fingers over at length himself. To be able to focus on the other teen in that way; it managed to help quell that steadily rising feeling just enough to almost feel manageable, where he realized it hadn't before.

Honestly this might be the only way to quell the redheads worries. Kurama needed this. And Yusuke wanted it.

Fox:
The fox pulled away just long enough for his shirt to be lost, but eagerly returned his attention back on his partner. Heated lips followed a slow trail downwards, tongue tip tracing the lines of firm muscles. He placed the softest of open-mouthed kisses to the tip of the slick length, but moved on to his thigh.

With his right hand once more lightly stroking, his left grasped Yusuke's leg. It was lifted up, and Kurama took advantage by nibbling along his inner thigh and up towards his knee.

EDDE:
Tugging his own shirt off the redhead almost seemed like a win, though he didn't have time to relish in it as he clutched the cloth through the heavy bouts of shivers that tongue kept pulling from him. His eyes following the fox's decent, his stomach jumped away from the teasing tongue, force back into it through a heavy stutter of his breath. As stated before, Yusuke was not a patient person. But he was trying quite hard not to interfere with Kurama's exploration.

The next breath came with a groan for the sight and feeling of those lips against his tip, as well as for how quickly they had left it. While he would have enjoyed the feeling of them staying longer, it wouldn't have matter as far as his vision went. As soon as teeth were nibbling up his thigh, the cloth in his hand was inadvertently pressed against his face. He lost sight of him under it of course, and it muffled the near whine that bubbled past his lips for the feeling it brought on. That sound pressed a bit more heavily against his lung for the actual loss in sight of him while the feeling continued; an anticipation for where those touches of his would land.

But he couldn't do it anymore. He just wasn't that patient, despite how much he was trying. Grunting his annoyance with mainly himself out lightly, he tugged the cloth away from his face. Sitting up just enough to capture the wrist of the stroking hand, though not impeding the movement in itself, he landed a rather pathetic look on the redhead. "Shuichi," was the halfhearted complaint that bled past his lips through a light moan.

Fox:
He loved it. Watching Yusuke try to hide himself under the fabric of his shirt and hearing the whines he was able to pull from his previously dominating partner. "Hush," he soothed sweetly when the detective sat up and grasped his wrist. The stroking didn't stop, instead his grip grew just a little firmer as his lips left the firm calf and were replaced over the lips saying his name so perfectly. "What do you want, Yusuke?" he cooed.

The fox switched hands, left grasping the slick shaft and continuing the slow stroking, while his right once more delved into the slick nectar. "Perhaps you were waiting on this?" Kurama's tone switched again, irritation and betrayal riding up in his chest again. His middle finger was pressed between firm cheeks and rubbed little circles over the puckered ring. "Though, that would be something only a boy could give you."

EDDE:
His grip relaxed through a warm shutter at the change in grip, sliding away to relax against his elbows as the redhead drew back up him. Hot breath cuffed against lips that matched his own so well. There was a sharper huff of air pulled from his lungs against the question. His face heated to a different degree while his eyes shifted away a bit at the question as he realized how difficult it was to answer the question he'd faced Shuichi with earlier.

Embarrassment was definitely not a new thing to him, though it was a little different with this. It was the change in his tone, and the additional pressure, that was able to draw him out of it enough to think just a little straighter. He seemed upset again, and Yusuke already knew why. But the thought of being in his previous position, of being able to feel what Shuichi had previously despite the pain he'd witnessed along with it all, had a heavy jump taking to his insides, and the anticipation of that landing squarely in his groin through a squirm of his hips.

As his gaze shifted back through lidded eyes, it was hot, and full of intent. And he corrected him, for whatever reason. He wasn't entirely sure why himself, and yet that protective nature of his was rearing it's head despite the fact that he wasn't the one rolling those sweet touches over the redhead. Maintaining his position, he lifted his hands to cup the fox's cheeks. And he insisted. "Only you can give me."

Fox:
It hadn't been the answer he was looking for, but as Yusuke's hands cupped his cheeks and he was corrected in such a nice way... The fox softened visually. "Yusuke," he sighed quietly before pressing forward to meet him in a warm kiss. The gentle swirling finger grew steady and gently sunk into the soft heat and groaned low in his throat. It was hot and tight just around his finger, and his hidden erection throbbed in anticipation.

Keeping up the gentle stroking and slipping his tongue between his lover's lips, the fox began to move his finger in and out, petting the inner walls with an expertise that came from years of exposure. The digit curled, petting and searching for the spot that would make his detective sing.

EDDE:
The discomfort of the intrusion wasn't anywhere near as heavy as it had been with the surprise invasion of Kurama's tongue. He was unused to it of course, so it was there, and had one of those hands trailing down the fox's neck to coil against his shoulder lightly through an upbeat in his breath as he kissed back a bit gingerly.

That discomfort was draw over quickly as his lips parted in eager acceptance of that tongue. That touch inside, spurred on by the even stroking he was receiving, was quick to draw light noises through his nose. And he pulled away a few times to catch his breath, and seemed like he might possibly be ready to say something, only to dive back into the kiss.

And when dexterous finger found what it had been searching for everything in him tensed. His eyes fluttered shut as eyebrows drew together and up, and his grip sharpened against the redhead's shoulder. A much heavier noise caught in his throat through the tensity as his neck craned a bit and pressed their foreheads together lightly instead. It wasn't let out until his knees had lifted and tightened around the teen above him. And when it did, it was stuttered, and laden with a delayed surprise that hadn't been able to present itself through the torrential explosion of the simple touch until it simmered down just enough.

He kinda figured he didn't have to ask, but he did it anyway. Melted chocolate oozed into the forest of his friend's eyes as he managed to take a moment to tug a light nip out of the redhead's lip. "Do it again, Shuichi?"

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
Beautiful. His lover's pleasured expressions were different this time around, a little softer it seemed, under the new pleasure. Emerald eyes were soft as he watched his face twist and relax, committing each moment to memory.

It was his turn to tense and sigh. The use of his human name in such a way burned him from the inside out, and he couldn't suppress the deep groan in his throat. He was gentle in wiggling a second finger inside, feeling the ring of muscle pinch around his fingers. In contrast to Yusuke's powerful, quick thrusts; Shuichi pressed in slowly, curled his fingers up and pulled back, scraping his fingertips along the upper wall. "This way, Yusuke?" he purred in a warm tease; finding the prostate and pressing up against it and rubbing tiny circles over it.

EDDE:
The second was more than uncomfortable. The change brought about enough pain to tighten the muscles in his face and a light whine of complaint to crawl from his lips. But it still wasn't coming close to what he was anticipating. Though Kurama hadn't gotten as far as he had yet. Whether that lack had to do with an incredible focus placed on those fingers trailing over his insides, coupled h his great lack in multitasking or not, he wouldn't have known.

It stood to reason that his sensitivity to the intrusion changed quite abruptly as they rubbed at him. And a great moan that was cut off by the ferocious bout of nerve bending pleasure rolled through him easily by the time the redhead offered the extra attention. His grip didn't tighten, although he did take on a bit of a knead on the fox's shoulder as his body made the attempt to both pull away from and lean into the offering of those fingers all on its own and his meek, cut off noises passed through his breaths as each time he tightened bodily from the mind boggling waves that caught him literally from head to toe in its motion.

Fox:
"Relax," he soothed, kissing the other teen's cheeks with feather light brushes of his lips. The intruding digits curled and pushed with an expertise that could only come from practice. A touch that would change as they continued over time, as he learned more about his partner and found the right pressure. Yusuke would manage the same, whether he realized it or not.

The fox watched Yusuke fall apart, watched him accept and lean into the pleasure despite his body's instinctual desire to pull away. "I am here, I will not harm you." Softly cooed words meant to sooth and relax, as a third finger was carefully wiggled in along with its counter parts. They were carefully thrust, pushing in to the knuckle and retreating with a careful curl, then spread out as wide as he could manage within the tight ring he was so close to sliding into.

There was a strange feeling in his gut as he watched Yusuke's face twist. Making his usually strong, stubborn partner into a mewling kit had a thrill rolling through him that was much more familiar... But he'd rather switch their positions. He would rather be the one looking up at the other with wet, pleading eyes. He would rather be the one to lose control over everything.

Not that this was bad of course, in fact it was quite the contrary. A predatory desire pulled the softest of growls from his throat as his fingers pulled free and he pushed the waist band of his pants down enough to let his shaft bounce in the air; hard and throbbing. "Are you ready, Yusuke?" he asked, offering the same courtesy he'd been given while slicking up his shaft with the sweet nectar; then positioned himself between the detective's legs.

EDDE:
The detective was in tatters, torn between the pleasure and pain that was mingling so well together it was hard to tell apart. He didn't have the wherewithal to hold back the slightest bit of the full reaction to the feeling that had his sensitivity rising to those same heights he'd barely been able to comprehend when this had been flipped.

Harsh gasps and moans laden with both complaint and a happy want riddled his breaths. But he wasn't hearing himself. Even in the moments he lost sight of the redhead hovering over him so pleasantly from his body's attempt to get away from the trauma it was reaching for more of, he could only hear the other. "I'm okay." The constant, unneeded form of comfort the Fox was providing pulled the need to inform him of as much.

And even though it didn't seem needed, it was helping to sooth him much more than he'd like to admit. Just as it seemed like the furious mixture was becoming too much, it pulled away. And then he was asked if he were ready. And he noticed then that his breath was rather occupied, and wouldn't allow a verbal response. So he had to force his eyes to remain open against the blissful pain to pull as much of his attention toward answering as he could. Even though he could only offer a simple nod, a breathless 'yea' that didn't form properly still despite himself, he was able to offer a far more positive inflection of the answer as he pooled his attention back into the forest eyes in front of him.

His thighs still held a firm grip on the redhead, though it wasn't as if they were impending him. One hand had tangled into the fabric of the pillow beside his head at some point, while the other held firmly onto the fox's arm and a low, warm groan that signaled the intense anticipation he was feeling in want of going all the way with his reversal was belted out warmly against the pressure offered against the lost fingers.

Fox:
His earlier intentions of asserting dominance and assuring Yusuke of his manhood faded away into the back of his mind as their eyes met. Warmth filled his gaze as he leaned over to gently pull Yusuke's hands from the pillow and his arm and guided his lover to hold him around the neck. "Hold onto me, Yusuke," he soothed, their foreheads touching.

Kurama groaned as his hips slowly pushed forward, the head of his shaft fighting against the virgin entrance for several seconds before sliding home. His mouth opened in a silent cry as he was surrounded in tight heat. This shouldn't feel as new as it did, but his human body was just so sensitive. His breath returned with a sharp gasp when their bodies met and was released with a shuddering whimper.

"Yusuke," he nearly sobbed. "Oh Yusuke." His want to pause for his lover's sake was flown from his mind as lust and pleasure muddled it. Still, the fox was gentle with his thrusts, carefully moving them together with his hands gripping the detective's hips. Kurama lifted him and angled his own hips, looking for just the right position to drive the teen below him mad.

EDDE:
He'd been so assured; through the constant gentle prodding toward relaxing from the teen above him, and from the lack in a horrible pain he'd been waiting far too diligently to experience. And because of it, he was utterly unprepared for the savage rampage that overtook him through the tender pressure the Fox was applying.

His arm having been tugged into place around the redhead's neck, he was flush, filled to tipping over with heat, and reveling in the sweet pleasure that was throbbing through his veins. But the pain of that entry forced a pinch through his face that made him lose sight of that assuring state he was being offered so prominently. Shuichi had much more to offer than those three fingers; at least from how it felt. And he was slowly splitting apart as it delved into him.

His breath grew ragged and uneven, muddled heavily with torrential whimpers that stuttered through his being through the attempt not to cry out for it. The loose tangle his arm had taken at the fox's bequest tightened as it was all he could do to coil against the feeling.

It hurts... What a stupid thought. And a vast understatement.

But the quiver in his hold wasn't purely for the pain of it either. It was new, and that made it incredibly hard to do, but he willed himself to focus on that thrilling chill that he'd managed to overlook through the overpowering onslaught.

The voice above him, sweetly saturated with the bliss he'd been allowed to experience so recently helped. It took a bit more to push his eyes open and allow his vision to be filled with the beautiful picture that matched it. "Shuichi..." The name drifted through a brilliantly warm sigh of relief. It was almost as if he were recognizing him all over again. And the comfort of it allowed the grasp pressing their foreheads together so heavily to loosen just so.

Breath he hadn't realized he'd lost through the several moments it took for the redhead to fill him so full was pulled back into his chest.

With little time for adjustment to the feeling, the burning pain of the sudden movement was almost as strangling. It caught again and pulled back into a ragged succession. He hadn't noticed the sharp grip he'd taken in red tresses, against the arm he held. But there was a lax that befell him bodily as chocolate eyes roamed the redhead's features in a frantic attempt to take him in in more ways than one.

Still, with the tensity roaming his grasp, he doubted he'd have been able to make a move against taught muscles that wouldn't let up. And yet his hips let up so easily at the insistance of the other teen's tug.

And while it was coming back to him a bit slowly, he clutched at the small throb of pleasure that friction agave him as it blossomed into a gentle roll through his being.

And just as suddenly as that pain had assaulted him, an explosive roar raced through and settled in his very core as the movement inside him centered a heavy pressure to that very precious bundle of nerves as Kurama found the right angle to brush against. It threw a frantic cry from his lungs that dwindled into a helpless hum and softened his features immensely.

Through the small explosion of pleasure, a bit of wetness touched his eyes and tangled in his lashes. Breathless, an appreciative, a needed press of his lips were landed on the plush ones above him. "Shuichi," he gasped out lightly, a loss of words having run rampant through him through the ordeal. And all he could manage to come up with was a gentle, breathless, "please," in want of that feeling to present itself again.

He was helpless against the experienced inexperienced creature above him, and easily felt as perfectly vulnerable as he was. It was all so new. And insanely confusing. But there was no hesitation in allowing himself to be swept into the protective cocoon formed around him, and inside of him, that was Shuichi; opening himself to the redhead completely.

Fox:
It was maddening. The heat so tightly wrapped around his sensitive virgin flesh was quickly driving him to insanity, the decent only hastened by his partners noises. The softly pleaded words pulled a deep groan from his throat. "Yusuke," he moaned again, the detective's name mingled with nearly every exhale from the fox.

Tightening his grip on Yusuke's hips, Kurama raised them up to offer more pressure to that pleasure spot he'd found. He took to grinding, rubbing the head of his shaft against that bundle of nerves constantly. "You are beautiful, Yusuke." His voice was ragged and raised an octave with a high-pitched whine. He was far too quickly rushing towards an end he didn't want to reach alone.

Shuichi moved his right hand, left still holding up his hips. Long fingers curled around his lover's neglected shaft, squeezing it lightly along with far to experienced strokes.

EDDE:
His breath caught in his throat through an odd noise at the shift in treatment. It was followed by a long string of those same sweet whimpers he'd given off before as his insides coiled just as tightly as the out. "Nuh--...No, Shuichi," he gasped out sharply.

He was climbing so quickly through just the pressure being applied so generously, and he didn't want it end as abruptly as it was threatening to. He wanted whatever the Fox had to offer him, and to keep it for as long as he could.

But he began stroking him, and the gasping choke returned through a heavy writhing of held hip. The comment on 'beauty' wasn't helping in the least. "W-wait..." The sob was every bit as warm and appreciative as it was frustrated.

But even through his protests it was just too late as everything about it drove him right up the wall himself. And through a heavily grated, sobbing moan, relief found him far too soon for his own liking; the noise dwindling into sputtered hums through a much heavier spasm of pleasure than he'd even been expecting.

Fox:
He didn't stop, he couldn't. Especially when he knew Yusuke's pleas were only halfhearted. The shaft in his hand began to pulse, and the heat around him formed such a vice it stole his breath away. The fox could only manage deep grinding before he pushed himself in to the hilt and allowed his own orgasm to wash over him.

Very different from before, the fox let out a strangled squeak as he rode out his own bliss. When he came down low enough to have conscious thought, the fox pulled back gently, carefully, then fell gracefully to the mattress.

"Would you still have preferred me to be a woman, Yusuke?"

It was meant to be a tease, he'd intended it to be a tease, but the way he curled himself against Yusuke's side and rested his head on the detective's chest... It seemed the question was much more than that.

EDDE:
It took a long, long moment for him to float down from the cloud he'd been settled on by the redhead; the noise for the disconnect only sounding mildly discontent as he rode through it. It wasn't until he started coming down himself that he started to feel... ugh.

Still full, and yet empty. And he could feel it oozing from him despite the resound pain that was slowly ebbing its way back into his senses. Blinking lightly, he pooled his attention on the redhead, ignoring the discomfort to focus on the others. "Who ever said I did?" It was only lightly accusatory, his tone a bit too soft for his own liking.

Digits curled in Kurama's hair to pet lightly as he offered a light sigh. Fucking drunks ruined everything... well, sorta.

"Sure as Hell wasn't me." The detective rose just a bit onto his elbows, the slight stress of the thought making him search out his shirt. Seeing it, he reached the small distance it took to slip the packaging out. Pulling the small stick to his lips, he flicked the lighter and took in the first sweet drag that always gave that burn for the fire.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
The light petting and the soft words soothed the fox into relaxing against his partner. He sighed as he listened to the rhythmic heartbeat as it slowed from the previous rush. "Perhaps not," Kurama hummed, eyes slowly shutting. "However, you don't like boys. And I am most certainly male." Still, Yusuke's words were already enough to sooth the strange wound in his chest, so his tone was a bit lighter.

A green eye peeked open as the detective moved, and he shifted along with him, unwilling to give up such a warm and comfortable spot. "Yusuke," he said with a light scrunch of his nose as the lighter was clicked and the scent of smoke reached him. "You realize, I have a very keen sense of smell."

EDDE:
Tilting his head lightly, he had to think about that a moment. Well, both of them were true. And once again his attention was drawn away from the thought as the subject was changed.

Blinking a bit, he looked down on the cute face Kurama was making. "Yea?" 'Keen' meant sensitive right?..." And he switched gears in thinking about that instead. "I guess I probably shoulda, but I hadn't really noticed." He offered through a light chuckle.

It took him a moment, but he peeked up at the still open window. And, in an attempt to save Kurama's nose that probably wasn't enough, he allowed the smoke to billow from his lungs toward it instead. "How sensitive?" The question was little more than curious as he linked the hint just a bit more.

Fox:
Exasperation pulled the responding sigh from his lips. So dearly did he want to relax and fall into a blissful slumber across his partner's chest, but Yusuke seemed to have other plans. "Sensitive enough," he answered, pushing himself up onto an elbow. Quick fingers snatched at the cigarette and held it lightly at the filter. "That I would find great discomfort in your arms while you smoke." The lit stick was flicked out of the window with a bit more flourish than needed.

EDDE:
He blinked a bit as the sweet stick was plucked from his lips, staring down at it as Kurama spoke. Somehow, he didn't expect it to be tossed out, even as he heard the complaint.

It left a small choke of half words in questions bubbling up past his lips as he looked from the fox to the window. But the surprise was gotten over easily enough as that wiley nature of his broke to the surface. "You can't just go throwing stuff out the window like that." The complaint was almost harsh in tone, although he meant it to be that way. "Geez, Shuichi. Give a guy a break."

And he meant it to sound like that because he was teasing. Maybe a bit cruelly, as he tugged out another from the pack, tucked it between his lips, and flicked the lighter once again before pulling it toward his face. He didn't plan on actually lighting it. Not if it honestly bugged him that much. But again, he simply couldn't help himself from an attempt to rile the other up.

Fox:
He was in no mood for games, even less so when he didn't quite catch that it was a game. "Yusuke," the name was hiss as he snatched again, this time grasping the lighter, box, and cancer stick to yank them out of his partner's hands. "If you wish to smoke that is your peragative. I simply request you don't do so in the bed." With a bit more huff in his expression than one might expect, the terrible habit was tossed over his shoulder and out the window.

"Now if you wouldn't mind laying back down? I was quite comfortable."

EDDE:
Well, it was entertaining. Up until it all got thrown out the window; literally. And one could see when that change occurred; cocky grin, followed by surprise, followed by a far less than amused pout. "Hey!" He whined heavily. "Aw geez. C'mon Kurama, I wasn't even gonna light it. That's so uncool." He stared at the window for a long moment before huffing a sigh and looking down on him.

"Not yet, since I have to go and get them now." He settled down pretty quickly, considering this gave him a rather unique opportunity. Sitting up, he huffed a sigh and reached for his pants; ignoring the holler in various places of his body.

"By the way. What I said about not liking guys..." The attempt to add on smoothly wasn't fully successful as he moved to the side of the bed in order to tug them up. "It's true."

As he stood to pull them on completely, he continued. "I've never really been attracted to other guys before. So, I don't like other guys."

He stepped over to the sliding door and opened it as he turned to face the redhead with a soft smile on his face and heat emanating so heavily from it there was a possibility it was glowing. "But that's other guys. You aren't like them, though. And that's not to say your girly, or look like a girl, or that I woulda rather you been one." He peeked over the edge of the balcony for a moment before looking back at him. "I don't think you're girly. And you're not like most guys. And I don't want you to be anything other than what you are, cause that's what I like so much. Just, you." And now for the escape.

He grabbed the gutter drain and hopped off the balcony, shimmying his way down it much in the fashion of a fire pole. And he took a good long moment to walk around the corner, needing it to calm both his nerves, and the horrible heat the small confession left him with.

Picking up the pack, unlit smoke, and lighter, he also ventured to have his cigarette outside since he was already there. But a few drags in, curious chocolate eyes landed up on his open window. Taking a step back, he tilted his head, and cupped his hands around his mouth. "Hey, Shuichi! Let's go for a walk!" Of course, he played absolutely no heed to the hour and volume of his voice.

Fox:
Kurama. For some reason, the use of his original name had his stomach dropping and his throat clenching. His brows furrowed together from both that feeling and the confusion that came with it. Forested eyes watched his partner redress, and found his cheeks warming as Yusuke explained away his irrational fears.

When Yusuke hopped out of the window, Kurama rolled onto his stomach and rested his chin on crossed arms. Kurama. Recently it seemed Yusuke would only call him that when he was angry with him; and while that's quite amusing when they were playing video games, it was far from amusing now.

"Ah," he sighed in relief when Yusuke called to him, and once more used the name Shiori had given him. The fox peeked his head out of the window, smiling as he called in reply. "I will be down in a moment, Yusuke." The fox ducked back inside and made quick work of redressing. He thought briefly of leaving in the same manner as the detective, but decided such a thing would be very uncomfortable on his behind. Instead, Shuichi walked around the passed-out drunkards to leave through the front door after sliding on his shoes.

He met his partner with a kind smile, a slight limp, and Yusuke's forgotten shoes and shirt. "Forgive me, I was rash," he offered, motioning to the lit cigarette.

EDDE:
The detective offered that exuberant grin of his through a warm chuckle. Although he jumped a bit as he heard a few various 'shut up's yelled out open and closed windows. If the fresh air hadn't gotten to him, he mighta had a mind to hollar back. He'd finished puffing away at his cigarette and flicked it away. "Nah. S'my fault."

And the smile on his face was just as cheery as he moved closer to the redhead at the bottom of the stairs. "You know," he offered lightly, "If ya want, you can ride on my back." He wasn't sure if Shuichi was feeling well enough to actually walk. His eyes landed on the forgotten clothing, and he could only offer a deviant chuckle toward his hurry to run off.

Fox:
"Don't tease Yusuke, or I may end up taking you up on that offer." The fox held out the others shoes and his shirt, but gave a teasing hum of his own as he retracted the shirt. Yusuke was far from hard on the eyes, and after the night they've had he felt he had the right to gaze upon his partner.

Shuichi's eyes were playfully devious as the shirt was folded over his forearm. "Surely you wouldn't mind allowing me possession of this for now, hm?"

EDDE:
Taking the shoes, he dropped them onto the ground and tapped them on, though the look he landed on the fox when he looked up from his task was confusion. "Who's teasing?"

As he lifted his hand to take the shirt however, it quickly turned to amusement. "Well, if you think you'll need both. Too far of a walk to get another one." He turned his back on the redhead, ready to move out whether he wanted a ride or not, but kept up as he peeked at him over his shoulder. "I didn't think it was that cold out, so I guess I can cope with the loss." There was the teasing.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
He could walk just fine, he didn't need to be carried, and yet the fox wrapped his arms around Yusuke's neck and climbed up onto his back. "This is ridiculous," he stated, his body pressed flush against the detective's back. Shuichi rested his cheek on his own arm, letting him face his partner.

It was warm, and comforting, and the fox held on just a little tighter. "I have no interest in other men either." Not anymore, not since he'd escaped to the human world. "Only you."

EDDE:
The warm chuckle followed the light words. It probably was, but he didn't really care. He liked it. The redhead just kinda seemed to fit against him so much. He hadn't noticed it as much at the time before, but he did now. And he readjusted for comfort before pausing fully.

Heat barred his face and he tilted it away from the teen a bit. Although he hadn't turned his eyes from him as he started walking. "Yea?" There was no hiding the smile the confession pulled to his lips.

He was quiet for a few moments as they walked. It brought that other thing to mind. And he needed the moment to think on how to bring it up. Since no good words came to mind, he just went with it; like he usually did. "So, uh..." what a dumb sounding question, but it was the only way he could think to bring it up. "Are you my boyfriend, Shuichi?" It even felt kinda weird saying it.

Fox:
He hummed his agreement while letting his eyes slide shut. The silence was nice, calming even. It let him focus on the heat radiating against his front, Yusuke's scent that was tainted with cigarette smoke, and the oddly pleasing gradient of light as they walked under the scattered streetlights.

"Boyfriend?" It felt strange on his tongue as well, and, since he couldn't be seen he allowed curiosity to knit his brow. That was a title he hadn't thought about taking before; but now that Yusuke said it... Kurama felt that strange fluttering of nervous butterflies that tried to make him giddy. He kept his voice calm. "I had not thought on it, but it does seem as if I am."

EDDE:
A light hum that didn't sound too sure of itself bubbled past his chest. "Ya know, I don't think so." He offered lightly, stopping for a moment in the darkness that veiled the area between to lamp posts; looking up at the over illuminated city sky that hid the stars. "Cause I don't really think it should be an 'I guess so' kinda thing."

He stepped off again. "Don't get me wrong." He added just as lightly. "When Mom brought it up, I thought the same thing." His head tilted, an attempt to peek at the Fox from the corner of his eye.

"Well, I thought that I hadn't really thought about it before either. But then, ya know, we had a date tonight and all, even if it ended up sucking ass for half of it..." He paused in thought for a moment, really wanting to make sure he didn't say any of this so it came off wrong. "It was good though. Even with all the shitty stuff. I had a really good time tonight."

And then he remembered where he'd been going before he'd changed the subject. "Anyway," he continued. "I don't really like the sound of it. 'Yea, I guess we're together.' I dunno. Doesn't seem like a great way to start things out."

He stopped walking as they reached a playground, the small park surrounding it bringing a bit of a smile to his lips as a different thought struck him; though he kept on track. "I think the reason I hadn't thought of it before is because it never crossed my mind." A light shake of his head signalled that he didn't like how that had been said. "I mean... it didn't seem weird, and it never felt like it should be something I shouldn't be doing, or anything like that." Huffing a light sigh he added quickly. "It was just... right, ya know? It was there, and I liked it, so why should it bother me?"

"Grab on," he warned as his own hold became more secure. Quickly, as if to escape all over again, he bound toward the play structure, running up it with incredible ease given the extra weight, though he stopped at the top of it. The heat that was permeating off his body was insane, but there was no running from it, considering Kurama was strapped to his back at the moment.

Stop babbling like an idiot, Idiot. Sighing, he concluded just as long winded as before. "Well. You were there. And it's weird cause it's kinda like I'd never really seen you before, but at the same time I kinda had. But you're right. And I like the way we fit together. So, I mean, you can be my boyfriend and all, but only if you really wanna."

Fox:
"I had a good time as well," he assured, punctuating it with a soft kiss to the crook of the detective's neck. The fox was smiling as Yusuke rambled on, he'd understood what the other was trying to say very early on, but the words being sent his way were pretty and sweet. He was a moving public speaker after all.

The warning was met by Kurama holding tighter, squeezing his legs more firmly against his waist, and his arms holding just a little more firmly. A chuckle left his lips when he was carried to the top of the jungle gym. "Yusuke," he started, the quiet chortle still audible. "Of course," another soft kiss, this one to the back of his ear. "I would like to be your boyfriend. Though, that means you would be mine as well. I hope you find my terms acceptable." His continued teasing came with more kisses along the jaw line and cheek. "We feel right together." An image of Keiko flashed in his mind, but he would worry on those feelings at a later date. For now, living in the moment was his choice.

EDDE:
He was giddy again, more so with the added words of the redhead. And he couldn't help the light chuckles those continued kissed were pulling from him. "Hmm~ I dunno. I might have to think on that." He teased meanly, but also quite obviously.

A soft smile; once again, a more supportive hold on the fox. "We do, don't we?" He admitted warmly. Not a moment later he had stepped onto the slide, surfing down it with ease. Though the landing was a bit off, and he had to catch his balance for a long moment for the compensation of the added weight on his back.

Once recovered, he chuckled as exuberantly as ever for the close win. "Yea! Let's do it again." Hurriedly, he circled back around the large structure to begin the process all over again.

Fox:
For the cruel tease the fox retaliated with an irritating blow into his ear. "Strangely enough," he agreed, but jumped and clutched his boyfriend tightly. The tiniest of squeaking sounds left Shuichi at the sudden jump down the slide. He was left to simply hold on as Yusuke landed and swayed to catch his balance. "You are insufferable at times," he accused, but didn't make a move to dismount even as Yusuke ran them back up to the top. In fact, he was smiling.

This time there wasn't a squeak, and instead came a short, melodious laughter as they slid down the slide. "I would like to make a request," he started when Yusuke was standing firm on two feet again, his head tilting in that innocent pose of his. "Though it would be a bit out of character."

EDDE:
The blow to his ear was annoying but he deserved it. And man, he really loved that sound coming from the redhead's lips. It was infectious, as he couldn't help but laugh lightly as well.

The second one was closer, as he nearly toppled and probably would have landed on his face. Maybe this wasn't the best of fun activities to do just now.

Blinking, he peeked over his shoulder at his newly established boyfriend from the corner of his eye. "Yea?" He wasn't sure what could be out of character for Shuichi at this point, as he'd seen numerous things he hadn't really expected of him as of late. "What's that?"

Fox:
He caught Yusuke's eye but quickly looked away again as heat colored his cheeks in the low light of streetlamps. "Would you..." He huffed softly to himself for what he wanted to say, and for just how hard it was to say it. "Would you push me on the swings?"

EDDE:
A brow raised purely for curiosity over how suddenly Shuichi had shied away. He laughed. It wasn't directly at Kurama; but pointed at how shy he'd gotten over it. It was kinda weird.

"Sure." But thinking about it as he carried him over, he realized what an odd request it really should have been coming from him. Then again, he'd never really thought Kurama played video games before. And he'd definitely never heard him laugh so freely until recently. So, he reasoned that was probably why it didn't seem as odd as he let the boy down next to the swing.

"Your seat, Sir." He teased through an over extended mock bow he'd come to expect from the prissy servers he'd dealt with on more than one occasion on Hanging Neck Island. Walking around the back of it, he tugged the chain into his hands to pull it into a better seating position and offered that smile of his. "How hard ya want me to push?" He added normally.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
Sliding down the detective's back was a little more difficult than expected. Standing was uncomfortable, but it was leaving the warm body in front of him that made it so. "Ah, so you do possess manners," the fox replied with an innocent smile as he settled on the swing. His backside protested loudly with a sharp pain that jumped up and down his spine.

Perhaps three rounds were a bit too much.

The pain subsided quickly enough, however, and Kurama tilted his head up. "Gently, if you would," Shuichi answered, his long fingers curling around the chains.

EDDE:
So cheeky, that chuckle of his against the tease. "Nah. I'm just like a bird. I copy things I see. Good or bad." He chuckled once again before tugging the chain back with a few steps and letting go to allow for the swing's movement.

A moment later he hopped onto the swing beside Kurama's, standing. Pushing with his feet, and tugging with his hands on the chain, his swing started up as well. Though he kept an eye on the other, hopping down to give another careful push to the small of his back.

Swings probably weren't he best option for the particular kind of pain the redhead was in. He sure as Hell wasn't going to sit down just yet. He could only guess how uncomfortable Kurama was.

"Hey, Shuichi?" He semi-mumbled as he hopped down to push him again. "Sorry for pissin' you off earlier. With everything goin' on it was kinda hard to find the right words." And, of course, there was that easily inflated ego of his that had gotten in the way.

Fox:
It was a simple pleasure, the light swaying forward and back. His hair rose and fell with the slight height, and again he felt the need to run his fingers through the sex fluffed strands. It was mostly tamed and yet... Humans are so fragile. Kurama shook his head slightly and instead focused on the gentle touch to his lower back that pushed him forward all over again.

"Hm?" Shuichi smiled and light shook his head again. "That is alright Yusuke, my annoyance was an irrational one. It seems thinking clearly around you may be difficult; you are an enigma. I apologize for jumping to conclusions." With a thoughtful hum and a playful gleam in his eyes he added, "Though, it did lead to something quite enjoyable."

EDDE:
The raven-haired teen gave the redhead another push, and hopped up onto his swing again. But then thought better of it. He plopped down onto it instead. And was instantly reminded of why he hadn't done that before, as his teeth nearly chattered with the jolt of pain that had his hair standing on end through a heavy shudder.

Dumbass.

Hadn't he just thought about it?

Forcing a calm over himself, he allowed the sway of the swing with his feet, pushing back and forth lightly while they remained grounded. "It did." He offered happily, barely lacking in the ability to keep the bit of color from his cheeks; one of which rested against the chain as he looked over the fox.

But he'd latched on to Kurama's words. And it was really starting to get to him. "Ya know, I barely understand what you say half the time." He offered easily. After all, it was well known that he wasn't all that bright when it came to some things. "So."

He gave off just a bit of a pout, seeming like he might be ready to be offended for the odd word. "What's an enigma?" Honestly, the word easily sounded like it may be an insult. Then again, bigger, or more complex words tended to make him feel a little insulted anyway for his lack of understanding.

"And what's a 'quom', for that matter?" He really did need to make a list. There was no knowing why the seco d word had stuck with him strongly enough to ask on it as well.

Fox:
Right... Kurama made a mental note to try and dumb down his vocabulary around his boyfriend. A smile came to his lips at the thought. It was a purely human concept, and it just aided his human facade. "Perhaps I should acquire you a dictionary," he teased, glancing over at the teen rocking beside him.

Shuichi touched his feet to the ground in order to match Yusuke's pace. "An 'enigma' is a mystery," he explained with an amused curl of his lips. "And a qualm," he corrected. "Is a doubt, or an objection."

EDDE:
"Heh. Don't waste your time." He teased right back. In fact, it was entirely possible there was one lying around the house somewhere. He watched the other as they matched speed in swinging.

"I doubt I'm a mystery." He added a bit as he leaned back on the swing and lifted his feet; taking on a sharper swing before returning them to the ground and slowing himself down again. Thinking about it for a moment, he added with that smile of his, "so is that a qualm?"

Fox:
"It is only a qualm if it bothers you to be called a mystery," he elaborated, watching as Yusuke lifted up higher in the air, but avoided doing the same. No need to put any extra force on his abused backside. "For example, I do not like Italian food, so I would have qualms about dining in an Italian restaurant; but because I like sushi, I would have no qualms in visiting a sushi bar."

EDDE:
He chuckled lightly. "Nah. Who doesn't like to be mysterious?" He chimed in cheerily.

Listening to the example, he thought on it for a good moment. And it seemed to click, quite visibly as he gave an 'Ooh' toward it.

His swinging changed yet again, as he tugged himself sideways toward the redhead before letting the grip fail to swing back, and repeating the process. " So like how I don't have no qualms about getting up early for school, but do about actually going." The look on his face, innocent and triumphant, resembled his age a little too well.

But it changed as he pushed himself toward the redhead again, this time not losing his grip in keeping near him. "Oooor," a sly smile slid over his lips as he continued. "How I wouldn't have any qualms if you wanted a kiss from me right now." Tone easily suggestive, he chuckled warmly at the new word's implications.

Fox:
"Precisely." Yusuke's obvious pride in expanding his vocabulary was humorous and endearing. The fox pressed the balls of his feet onto the ground to slow himself to a stop. He leaned in slowly, touching their noses together and stopping a hairs width away from his lips. "I would have no qualms with you taking that kiss Yusuke," he purred before pulling away and standing.

"However, you will have to catch me first." Shuichi gave the detective a playful smile before he was running across the field of the playground. It hurt at first, but the pain ebbed away into an ignorable throb quickly enough. A childish glee fueled his steps; The cool night air, fresh breeze in the moonlight and a partner to play with.

EDDE:
Perfectly pleased with himself, that smile softened as Shuichi moved closer. He was just about to close the distance quite happily when his newly dubbed boyfriend pulled away. And he took that smile with him as the detective bubbled into a pout for the loss.

He pulled back himself, blinking a bit as the redhead shot off. Still thinking himself clever, as he had for the turn of words, he stood himself. "Really Shuichi? Tag?" He put on his best judgmental tone. It was kinda hard to pull off.

"Come on, that's a game for babies and kindergarteners." Still, he was making his way over as he chided. And when he reached him, he added, "What are we, five?"

It was harder to keep it up as he noted the reaction he got for the chastising. That was enough anyway. "I mean really. You-- are so it!" After cutting himself off, once he was close enough, he said the last words just after a quick peck to the redhead's lips. Then, of course, he took off in the opposite direction; laughing like a mad man.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
"Hm?" The fox paused and turned as Yusuke settled him with that tone. His own expression changed, because the detective was hardly one to talk about childish actions. A slim eyebrow rose as he continued and drew closer, chiding him. The thought of Yusuke Urameshi chiding him was enough to smooth his features with amusement.

"If tag is too childish for you Yusuke, we could always return to the swing set," he pointed out, allowing the detective to get closer, despite catching on rather quickly to the others plot. The kiss was sweet but too short, and for a moment he paused.

"You petulant brat," he accused before following after. Shuichi found himself grinning as he fell into the childish game; chasing down his partner and reaching to tap his palm over the others shoulder.

---

Stomping down the sidewalk, grumbling and perfectly pissed, Kazuma Kuwabara kicked away a stray bit of garbage. "Stupid sis, she's not the boss of me." He loved his sister, but damn it could she be impossible. "Why'd she have to bring that guy home? Man, I'll never get to sleep with that stuff stuck in my head."

The sound of laughter confused the lovable buffoon, his head lifting up to look around. Cause who the hell would be playin' around in the middle of the night. He could make out silhouettes running across the park, and curiosity drew him closer. Was that Urameshi's voice?

EDDE:
He nearly tripped over himself for a short need to stop for the, again, confusing word. Given the context though, he was pretty sure that one was an insult.

The near stop made it a little too easy for the other teen to catch up to him. So as he got close enough to tag him back, he turned on the redhead Instead to get a better start himself. "Petulant, huh?" He mocked lightly. "You're gonna pay for that ten-dollar word!"

He really couldn't help the light laughter he fell back into as he hurried after the fleeing boy.

--

The petite fire demon sifted from tree to tree, easily keeping to the shadows when the need to touch ground arose between the foliage. He didn't like the city. Bright lights, scents, and sounds all too often were overwhelming to keen senses. At this time of night however, it usually wasn't nearly as bad. It was why he chose to do rounds of the area about now.

As there was little to distract, those keen senses picked up on not only the scent of all three of the others, but the sound of the detective's always overzealous voice.

He didn't tend to see any one of them out at this time of night very often, let alone the lot of them. Curiosity peaked, little effort was needed to shift direction toward the not far off group of teens.

Fox:
"You will have to catch me to exact punishment," he taunted in return. Shuichi ran, and the moment his boyfriend drew close the fox nimbly dodged out of the way. Left, right, back, and around, all to narrowly avoid an outstretched hand. "You seem to be a bit slow, Yusuke. Perhaps I was a bit too rough?" The words accompanied another graceful dodge.

---

It was Urameshi! And Kurama too. The tallest of their team came to a halt to watch his teammates dance around each other. "Is this some kinda training Kurama?" His voice had the red head pausing in their game. How had he not sensed their cat loving friend? He'd gotten himself so wrapped up in Yusuke the world around him had fallen away.

"Not quite," the fox answered.

It seemed he was ignored... "Yer too slow Urameshi, whatever training this is I'll kick your butt in it!"

EDDE:
The graceful dodging of the fox nearly had him tripping over himself for the lunges he was making. The comment though, threw him off much worse. Through a horrible flush painting itself over his face, he was forced to pause with a small flail of his arms to fight the crushing force of gravity; or rather embarrassment. He recovered and was about to give his own shot back when the big lovable oaf's voice hit his ears.

He drew back up, hands on his hips, and stated juuuust a little too proudly, "We're not training, Kuwabara. We're playing tag." Well, he was trying to play tag. Kurama was a little too good at dodging for hm.


Large eyes watched them from the shade of a nearby tree; Hiei had already leaned against the trunk with his arms crossed. "If you ask me, it looks like you're doing little more than falling over yourself." The cocky mock fell from him a bit too easily.

He could only manage a short, insulting laugh as Yusuke bucked up through a bubbled pout. "Yea? So who asked?"

Fox:
It seemed that team Urameshi had gathered on the playground that night. It was an amusing prospect. Just a few short days ago the four of them were fighting for their lives, and now they had rejoined in a laughably tame situation. Kuwabara began laughing loudly. "Tag? What are you, five?" However, his amusement bubbled down when he looked at Kurama. He remembered the silver haired fox and the power that came with it. He didn't want to be the one to piss him off.

"Hiei, Kuwabara, perhaps you could join us?" The fox looked between the three of them and kept his expression pleasant as he added. "Yusuke is not much of a challenge on his own."

Kuwabara grinned again and pumped his fist in the air. "I'll take any chance to wipe the floor with Urameshi's face!"

EDDE:
"Hey~" The bubbled-up teen whined pathetically toward the tease from the redhead. Although he couldn't exactly deny it. Then again, it wasn't as if he'd been trying that hard. A smirk settled on his lips a moment later. "I'll show you a challenge." The offer was just as cocky as one would expect of the detective.

As entertaining as Yusuke's plight was, the smaller being pushed himself into standing from the lax position against the tree with his arms still crossed. "Count me out." As judgmental as ever, he landed the lot of them with a look down his nose. "I have no interest in petty games."

"Heh." The clipped chuckle from the raven-haired teen seemed to catch Hiei's attention. "If you're scared I'm gonna mop you up like usual, you can just say so, Hiei. It's all good."

And Hiei suddenly looked pretty defensive through the sharpening of those large eyes as they focused on the boy; but he was cut off by a continuance. "Or is it that you're worried you won't even be good enough at it to beat Kuwabara?" Yusuke shrugged off the thought, arrogant and chiding. "I mean, you are out of your element here. It wouldn't be all that surprising."

A short growl permeated the smallest's chest as those crossed arms loosened themselves and slid down to his side's smoothly and coiled fingers into clenched fists. "What are the rules of your foolish game?"

Honestly, he was a little surprised it had been so easy, but Yusuke wasn't going to complain. His attention traveled back to the fox, simmering down immensely upon getting his way and seeming far more pleasant. "Tag's too easy, don't you think? What about hide-and-seek?" In the dark, that game was quite fun. "Or, I dunno. Something a little harder than plain old tag."

Fox:
He didn't laugh, but how easily Hiei fell for Yusuke's ploy was more than just a little amusing. The fire demon was much easier to predict and read then he was sure their smallest member would admit to.

"Freeze tag!" Kuwabara's loud exclamation caught the kitsune's attention, but his questions were answered before they even formed. "Yeah, then half pint would have to go after me too. Not that he could come close to catching me."

"With Hiei's superior speed it would be no contest," Kurama pointed out, looking towards the smaller demon. "If we limit ourselves to a normal running pace the game will last a bit longer."

EDDE:
"Hn. And just what do you call a 'normal' running pace?" After all, his usual pace was quite normal for him. "Besides." He snapped in continuance. "What will limiting ourselves prove? Is the point of it not competitive; not to determine who is the best?" Because Yusuke had certainly made it sound like it was.

The thoughtful hum of the detective crawled beneath and nestled under the fire demon's skin far too well. He could hear the berating coming purely through that tone. "What's that, Hiei? Having trouble already? We haven't even gone over the rules yet." His attention drew up, and to the side; an expression of innocence that was so blatantly posed it was insulting. "If you're gonna look for a way out at every turn, you might as well give up before we even start. It won't be any fun beating you into the ground if you're not really up for the challenge."

There was no notice from the small creature that Yusuke was stringing him along so easily; over inflated ego simply couldn't allow the jabbing at his pride to go unpunished. And the best way to achieve it would be to beat the detective at his own game. Not to mention the buffoon. There would be no forgiveness in backing down from the tentative challenge. And he all but snarled, "Hurry up and tell me how to play."

Fox:
"Our movements must be slow enough to be seen," he offered, though brought his hand to his mouth to hide the laughter that shook his shoulders. The shaking grew a little quicker as Yusuke continued and Hiei fell perfectly into the trap that had been laid. His hand left his lips, and they parted to speak, but he was cut off by their tallest companion.

"Eeeeh, leave the shrimp out of it. He's too much of a wuss to take me on." Kuwabara stomped over to Hiei, chest puffed out in his usual show of bravado. "Ain't that right you hamster."

EDDE:
There was a slight tilt of Hiei's head toward the thought of running at a slow pace. Kurama's description certainly lacked in his own definition of the task. So then, he simply wouldn't be running. That should be easy enough to pull off.

As Kuwabara stalked up to him, his demeanor relaxed all over again. "Heh." The attention of those large eyes of his didn't even land on the ginger boy through his response. "Your submission will barely be worth what little effort it will take. As usual, you are of little consequence." Though, despite saying as much, and brushing the large teen off; he didn't plan on losing to the fool detective. Of course, there was still no way he would allow himself to fall to the oaf.

Yusuke piped up quickly before Kuwabara could start falling over himself in attempt of punching that smart mouth off. "So the rules." He elaborated a bit loudly to catch their attention.

As he listed them, he counted them off on a finger at a time through the touch of another. "Normal running pace." Another. "It might be a contact game, but no extra contact than just what's needed to catch a person. A tap on the shoulder or whatever is enough." That rule wasn't just set for the two feuding friends, as neither Yusuke or Kurama needed any extra trauma tonight.

"If you get tagged, you're frozen. That means no talking, and no moving around unless someone unfreezes you." His attention settled on Hiei. "To unfreeze someone, all you have to do is tag them while they're frozen. When everyone is frozen, the person who got tagged first has to tag everyone else for the next round. If you talk or move while you're frozen, you're out. You lose the game. Got it?"

Through a light 'ch', Hiei's attention drew away as he was singled out during the explanation.

"I'll take that as a 'yes'." He smiled exuberantly. "Let's play already. Hiei, since it's your first time playing, you're it."

"I'm what?" The smaller sounded annoyed by the odd address.

"It. You're it."

That annoyance melded with utter confusion. "And what is it?"

Annoyance traced the teen's features and mirrored back at the petite demon. "You're the one who's gotta tag everyone for the first round!"

Hiei's features only muddled further, even more annoyed at the seemed subject change. "Fine. But tell me what it is."

"Hiei! I just told you what 'it' is!" By this point Yusuke had bubbled up, having no idea what the little punk wasn't understanding.

"You aren't making any sense!" Both seemed perfectly offended over the situation, Hiei growling the comment out as sharply as Yusuke's voice was raising.

"Ugh!" Yusuke threw his hands up, universally signaling that he gave up; and turned his attention to the ginger. "Kuwabara, you're it, dammit!" Agitation toward the smaller being was thrust his way instead.

Hiei was glowering at the detective at this point. "Tell me what it is." Maybe he wanted whatever it was. Who knew, if he didn't know what it was? And he seemed just as easily offended that the offer had now changed hands to Kuwabara.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
"Why you..." Kuwabara's arm was raised with his hand clenched in a fist, already about to make the first swing when Yusuke's voice startled him into a fumble. In an instant that anger was turned towards the detective, before dissipating into a wide grin. A game like this was just what he needed to shake off the cobwebs that long nights of studying left behind. Shizuru was really starting to crack down on that.

Back and forth the conversation went, the eyes of both on lookers shifting from one speaker to the other as the banter went on. Kuwabara looked at Hiei with an expression that simply said 'Ehh?' "You didn't play much as a kid, did ya."

Amusement danced in emerald eyes, but the fox kept his composure with only a small smile portraying his thoughts. He was carefully returning to what he really was, the wolf removing the sheep's clothing. His stance was different, but not enough so to pinpoint just what had changed. Even his tone evened out, smooth and perfectly mannered. Kuwabara had just opened his mouth to speak, when the red head offered his aid.

"Hiei, 'It' is the title given to the pursuer. 'You are it,' not 'Your it."

EDDE:
Hiei's attention fell just as sharply on Kuwabara through the question. He might usually ignore it, but his pulse was raised through the annoyance the conversation had drawn through him. "I wouldn't waste the time. There's no point in it." After all, it hadn't been hard for him to recognize the difference between the humans' definition of 'play' as opposed to his own.

And again, that attention shifted as Kurama managed to explain 'it' much more fluidly. It settled on the detective. "And you--" No, no. It wasn't worth the continued waste of time. Taking a much-needed breath to calm himself, he reconsidered. "Let's just get on with it." There was no point in making a mountain out of a mole hill; even if that was the detective's forte.

Giving his hair a vigorous run down through an annoyed grunt, Yusuke managed to cool off himself. This was supposed to be fun. He'd have to remember that. "Alright," he started in a much calmer tone. "I'll be it, if it'll get things moving." Looking over the others, that grin of his peeked through. "I'm giving you guys a ten second head start, so get the Hell away from me." The tease was lighthearted all over again before he began his count down.

"Hn." His own smirk fell over the smaller being's face. On instinct, the petite demon shifted away too quickly for what the rule had dictated.

The raven-haired teen only stopped to offer, "Too fast, Hiei," before continuing.

The task was much more difficult than it would seem, forcing himself to back off the pedal. But he managed, and kept himself a good distance away from the spirit detective as he finished his countdown and calculated who he would go after first. Kuwabara was too easy. He was still somewhat annoyed with Hiei. So, his attention landed on the redhead, the comment on his lack of a challenge still fresh in his mind.

Fox:
"No cheating half pint!" Kuwabara called in response to Yusuke's words, but he didn't stick around long enough to see a reaction. On his heels he spun, and the cat loving teen ran in the opposite direction with a hint of a bounce in his step. He was grinning broadly and snickering to himself in a child-like glee that acted as a reminder to his age.

With their companions running off and their eyes far from them, Shuichi moved closer to the detective rather than away. His touch was feather-light as Kurama pet his fingers across his boyfriend's lower back; and in a move that may have been too bold, the fox leaned down to place the lightest of kisses to the back of Yusuke's neck. "Good luck," he offered with a pleased sound before he too ran away.

His lower back protested to the speed, but it was easily ignored for the fun he was having. "Match your pace with mine, Hiei, and go from there," the fox called to their shortest companion. Hiei always seemed to learn quicker with visual aid.

Once Yusuke hit 'ten,' Kuwabara spun around again and pulled down his lower eyelid and stuck out his tongue in a taunting manner.

EDDE:
Heat flushed over the raven-haired boy's features for the sweet attention. A coil of his insides sent a good amount of glee through his being. And as he looked over the others again, he realized that maaaaybe ten seconds was a little too much.

They'd taken off in completely different directions, and while he had settled his attention on his boyfriend previously, the taunt from Kuwabara was too good to resist.

A smirk crossed his face, and in a moment he was sprinting toward the tall ginger teen. "Keep it up, Kuwabara. You just pinned a great big target right to that ugly face!" He teased as he closed in. "And here I was gonna be nice and not go for the easy one." A mean chuckle posed past his lips for his own taunt.

As he was addressed by the redhead, sharp eyes landed on the other. With little effort, and not much speed, he hopped up into the confines of a nearby tree. Not hiding, but in effort to gain a better vantage point in watching the lot of their movement. He still didn't see the point of limiting himself, but he wouldn't be accused of cheating his way to victory. Besides, there would be no challenge in it if he did.

Fox:
"Shut your mouth Urameshi!" Despite the seemingly angry yell, Kuwabara had a stupid grin on his face that accompanied his laughter well. He ran towards the playground equipment with heavy, stomping, yet somehow swift footsteps.

Kurama came to a slow stop under the tree Hiei had perched himself in. "You realize, once Kuwabara has been frozen, it is our prerogative to free him. This is meant to be a team game." He chuckled, doubting Hiei would like the idea of actually aiding their lovable mulberry tree in such an exercise.

EDDE:
"This is ridiculous." He muttered shortly, going over for himself how he had been dragged into this in the first place. "Hn." The almost chuckle was pointed toward Kurama's words. "That idiot would have us caught ourselves purely for how much aid he'll need."

Snickering shortly, he closed in on the oaf just before he got to the sanded area surrounding the toys. "Ha! Gotcha!" The need to slow himself down after tapping his friend on the back nearly had him falling over himself. His own perfectly giddy look crossed his face as he poked his tongue out triumphantly at him. "Ha ha! Ha-ha-ha~" he teased childishly as he hopped back and forth on each foot waving outstretched hands by his face. In spite of how grown up he could act on some occasions; Yusuke was very good at showing off his actual age; physical and mental.

"That's what happens when you suck so much~ Kiss my--" An abrupt halt came to his teasing when he turned his ass toward the ginger and went to pat at it to accompany that last bit of verbal abuse. Now, it wasn't like a light pat could have stopped him at this point. But through that over exuberant nature of his he went a little overboard, as usual, and instead ended up smacking it pretty hard.

With the full stop came that silly noise resembling 'djee' at the surprise of it. And it flowed quickly into a short grunt for the pain. It had him standing straight in a preen and a tingle that started somewhere near his spine somehow managed to roll that pain up his body from toe to head. Luckily, he had been facing away from the giant oaf so he wasn't able to catch the full force of the look. But that didn't mean other onlookers couldn't.

He found that out as a cruel laugh came from somewhere in the tree line. While Hiei couldn't know what the cause of that blundered pain was initially, it didn't stop a sharp heat from permeating his face through a quick huff-puff of breath that eased him back down. Chocolate eyes grew sharp, and he took a vigilant stance as he searched out his other targets (mostly so he could quickly gloss over what had just happened, so he didn't have to deal with any aspect of his friends dragging him into a conversation of some kind about it. Just knowing Kurama would know what he'd done if he had seen it was bad enough). And within a short moment he was sprinting toward the two free guys who had been watching. He was able to ignore the sharp tug at his backside that hadn't been there the last time he'd taken off. As he did so, he did his best to push the heavy embarrassment from his face.

"You've been spotted, Kurama." The smaller being's tease was short, almost lacking in natural malice. Perhaps the childish behavior was just a little too infectious.

Fox:
"Erk!" Momentum had Kuwabara skipping a few steps after he was tapped, but he stood stalk still the moment he could. His face twisted as he swallowed down his usual retorts, and was forced to watch as Urameshi taunted him.

The fox hummed in what might have been agreement, his eyes trained on Yusuke. In the guise of keeping his opponent in sight, Shuichi enjoyed the view as the still shirtless teen sprinted under the moonlight. "It seems I have. I must be off then; you should be able to reach Kuwabara in the meantime." Though, he assumed it would be to antagonize the gentle giant rather than helping him.

With a playful gleaming his eyes, Kurama sprinted towards the tree line and away from Kuwabara's frozen statue.... A statue who's nose was starting to itch. With little grunts their tallest member wiggled his nose. He snorted and snuffed, but nothing could quell the itch.

EDDE:
The boy's eyes narrowed as Kurama took off, taking the bait and turning off after him; a devious chuckle in his breath. He didn't see Hiei up in the tree either. And his mind focused right back on the challenge he was determined to give. "You won't get away so easy this time, Shuichi." He teased; the name easily slipping off his tongue without thought. "I gotta bone ta pick with you!"

Chuckling lightly, the smaller being hopped down from the tree. And he took his time in sauntering, milling over to the frozen ginger boy. Looking him over carefully, he raised his hand. There was a sudden pause just before touching him however, and Hiei pulled away to stuff his hands in his pockets. A thoughtful look crossed his face for a moment before smirking up at the giant idiot.

"I'd free you," he started smoothly. "But this is such a good look for you. Not to mention, my ears are spared from your insufferable babbling like this." He seemed to be debating whether to let him loose or not still. His stance relaxed, and he simply watched the large male as he was forced to stand there silently, basking in it. Perhaps he could find a like in this game.

Fox:
"Be mindful Yusuke, the others do not know me by such a name," he pointed out without a skip in his step. The moment he slipped into the tree line everything about him shifted, just a little. His footfalls were better placed, and his body swayed gracefully with each turn, dodge, and weave. This was a natural environment for the fox, and even the trees around them seemed happy with his presence.

Kuwabara continued his snuffling up until Hiei came into view. Relief sagged his shoulders a little, he really needed to scratch his nose. When the little shrimp refused to touch him however, the fool could only grumble and make noises that could only be his attempt at silent insults.

EDDE:
His lips pressed together, as if shushing himself as his attention travelled back toward the others for just a moment. Were they just standing around? "Right." He offered shortly in response to the warning.

He was closing in on Kurama, but that didn't mean he was gonna get him as easily as he had Kuwabara. His focus sharpened as he drove after the redhead in a far more precise manner than he had before. Reading his movements wasn't easy, but he was doing well enough that he was getting closer with each attempt. "Careful," he teased cheekily. "If you get tagged back here, they might not be able to find you to get you out of it." Not that he figured Kurama would mind being stuck in the wooded area. But there was a good point in there strategy wise if the round were going to continue.

A cruel chuckle nearly parted Hiei's lips as he watched the moron grow more agitated by the moment. "What's wrong, Kuwabara?" Everything about him screamed at that devious nature of his as he teased. "Cat got your tongue?" Dumbing down any proper taunts would certainly be sure to pull the most reaction from the large boy. He'd learned by now that anything that involved much higher thinking went too far above the teen's empty skull to gain any satisfaction from it. And right now, he was certainly satisfied with his level of entertainment.

He'd also noticed the odd breathing pattern the ginger had picked up on and off, and recognized that his plight was much more bothersome than he'd originally thought. The simple pleasures of tormenting the helpless creature before him was feeding his sadistic nature just enough for him to want to keep it up.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
As Yusuke's efforts increased the fox found him getting closer and closer with each swipe of his hand. A brush of fingers through the damaged ends of crimson hair had the fox pivoting on his heel to narrowly avoid contact. "Being immobilized in the forest," he shifted around a tree to offer a temporary obstacle. "Would not be such a horrible fate, considering my company." A root pushed up against the forest floor, creating a bump to catch Yusuke's foot.

Kuwabara was visibly shaking, and his face had gone red with his valiant attempts to stay silent. But the damn twerp just had to keep pushing. "Grrr Screw you half pint!" The yell was loud enough to scare away the slumbering birds. Once noticing his mistake, Kuwabara slapped both hands over his mouth and failed in his attempt to look inconspicuous.

EDDE:
And catch it did. The detective flailed a bit in attempt to save himself, but the failure was inevitable at this speed. Almost instantly he was sprawled on the ground, a short mutter of annoyance tapering off quickly. He really needed to watch where He was going. Apparently he didn't realize what the Fox had done.

Hiei's smirk grew broad as the taller male lost his cool. "It seems you've lost the game already." He chuckled out, in no way modestly.

However, Yusuke's hollar from behind the tree line. "Kuwabara! Cork it or lose!" Once again, the detective lunged at Kurama all over again hoping to get lucky in his grab.

Hiei looked perfectly annoyed toward the pass Kuwabara was given. But still, he didn't unfreeze him.

Fox:
Amusement danced in his eyes as he watched the detective tumble and fall to the ground, and a quiet chuckle came with Kuwabara's exclamation. He turned his attention in the direction of their companions, and in doing so gave Yusuke the perfect opportunity. In the last moment he attempted to dodge, but he felt Yusuke's palm clasp his side, and Shuichi stilled.

With little regard to the rules, Kurama couldn't help but taunt his partner. "You have me immobile before you, Yusuke." His voice was silky smooth and his eyes took on a mischevious glint. "What plans could you possibly have for me?"

Kuwabara was able to get in a quick scratch to his nose before he forced himself still again. Glaring daggers at the little brat who refused to help his teammate!

EDDE:
"Hmm." It seemed the mischief was contagious as it rolled into chocolate eyes as well. "You wanna know?" He teased smoothly as he moved close enough to meddle them together and left his lips just so close to touching. "I'll tell you," he added warmly as he pecked at Kurama's lips once, twice.

Then backed off through a perfectly cruel chuckle. "Leave you here and go tag Hiei while I still gotta chance." He turned and made to hurry off. "If I hurry, he might still be screwing with Kuwabara." Really. It couldn't have gone better if he'd planned it. Although, he almost made it seem like he had, and that could actually be left up to question.

Hiei, as expected, was still getting plenty of a thrill from messing with Kuwabara without having to deal with the consequences of that grating voice of his. And as predicted, he was far too concerned with that to notice Yusuke's ridiculously played out stealth approach from behind; up on his toes, hands high and at the ready.

Fox:
Two short, sweet kisses were his reward for the playful teasing; so, while he would have been delighted with more, the loss he was left with as Yusuke pulled away was minimal. "Best of luck," he offered before adhering to the rules of the game and remain motionless, and silent.

"Mmmmph!" Kuwabara's eyes widened when he caught sight of Yusuke sneaking up behind his only chance at freedom. But he couldn't move, and he couldn't talk. All he could do was frantically dart his eyes from Hiei to Urameshi.

EDDE:
Hiei gave the large male an odd look, annoyance toying with his features through it. "Now what the Hell are you doing?" He chastised. "I think I will let you go. You look even more moronic than usual."

Yusuke snuck right on up, but just as he reached to wrap his arms around the smaller being who would most certainly make for an escape faster than he could grab, Hiei's eyes narrowed, a light "Hn." Puffing from his chest. And instead of running off like the detective would expect, he jumped.

So just as Yusuke managed a "Gotcha," the small creature landed just behind Kuwabara. And he had even managed to knock down his speed in the process.

"Really, Detective," his chiding managed to match that which he had directed at Kuwabara. "Did you honestly think it would be that simple?"

Yusuke pouted for just a moment down at his empty arms before blinking over at the fire demon and offering a small chuckle. "Well no, but I was hoping."

Hiei chuckled in return, though his was decidedly less friendly. "Sorry to dash your hopes." Sarcasm flowed through his tone so flawlessly. And a moment later his attention turned up to Kuwabara. He supposed he should make good on his word. Through a wicked smile his foot slid out in front of Kuwabara, and with a heavy shove he offered, "There, you're free." Not that it would last for long, as he had shoved him straight for the detective. Only taking a moment to be sure he was swaying the proper way, the little man made a bee line for the trees, following the direction Yusuke had just come from.

Fox:
"Gyuuurk!" Hiei's shove had Kuwabara flailing to keep his balance. It failed, however that worked in his favor. The large teen tumbled to the side and out of reach of the Spirit Detective. He quickly scrambled to hit feet and whirled to face Hiei. "Get back here you mouse!" He howled in a squeaky, gravelly voice before chasing after the fleeing fire demon.

Kurama stood still in his spot, relaxing under the canopy of trees and enjoying the feel of the night breeze against his skin and relaxing in the rustling leaves left in its wake. He chuckled after hearing the boisterous yowl, and glanced to the side to see Hiei running in his direction.

EDDE:
In an instant Yusuke was on Kuwabara's heals. His taunt was directed at Hiei alone. "Ooh, you better look out, Hiei. You pissed'm off~" okay. Maybe it was pointed toward Kuwabara just a liiiitle bit too.

"Ha." It was perfectly snide in response, and really all he needed to say. Unfortunately for the two of them, speed was not his only ally. He also carried agility and balance in droves. And unfortunately for him, his ego tended to work against him more often than not.

The plan had been to go after the fox, free him, and make him be the one to save their dimwitted associate the next time around. However, Yusuke's continued taunt of "He's gaining on you~" forced him to stop just short.

And he turned on the other two, though his eyes were narrowed on Kuwabara. He was inexorably interested in just what it was that moron thought he was going to do when he caught up to him.

Fox:
Shuichi watched on from the trees, his view obstructed by the foliage, but not enough to keep him completely in the dark about his comrades. Exasperation pulled forth a silent sigh, but he wasn't disappointed. He'd have to be surprised for that, and his team's antics were as predictable as ever.

"Shut up Urameshi!" The taunting only fueled him. The only reason he didn't go for a headlock on the detective was because touching him would mean he was frozen again. Instead his eyes trained on Hiei, his arm winding back until he could throw a hard right jab at the smaller being's face.

EDDE:
It seemed Hiei and Yusuke both predicted Kuwabara's action, because just as Hiei dodged the blow simply, Yusuke tagged him through his inevitable fall.

Though Yusuke's taunting laughter at the larger boy gave Hiei the chance to turn on his heel and head for Kurama. Yusuke, however, was right on that heel. "Oh no you don't!"

It was so close too. But Yusuke was just that much taller than Hiei, and had more of a reach. It had him leaning over the small beast and reaching for Kurama as well. And just a fraction of a second after Hiei touched the redhead, Yusuke's hand covered his, effectively tagging them both and leaving Kuwabara as the next odd man out.

Annoyance shot through Hiei's features as he yanked his hand out from under the detective's and turned on him. "So now what?" His question was sounded less than pleased with the turn of events. "If we're all frozen, no one can come to anyone's rescue."

Yusuke figured he probably should have explained that part before, but he was too busy with the gloating chuckle that was falling from his chest. Plus, he was pretty sure he actually had explained that.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
The comical proceedings had the fox sighing in an attempt to avoid laughing. His eyes lingered on Yusuke probably a bit longer than they should have. The detective's laughter was addictive, and the sight of him minus a shirt was far from hard on the eyes. The fox hummed softly, reluctant to pull his eyes away to instead turn his attention on Hiei. "Now the game starts anew," he offered his shorter companion. "With Kuwabara as the pursuer, due to the fact he was tagged first."

"Yeah shorty!" Kuwabara swung his hand down to try and clasp Hiei on the back just a 'little' too hard. "Means your frozen!"

Witnessing the game's start had Kurama turning tail and running back towards the open park area.

EDDE:
Hiei's attention was on Kurama, an odd look pointing toward thoughtfulness on his face as he observed the redhead. Though it faded quickly enough through the short explanation. It seemed he was a bit too focused on the half breed however, as that ear piercing voice rang out from just behind him.

There was a movement to dodge that made the blow of that large hand only barely brush against him with the tips of fingers. Despite the lack in that full contact, the small creature turned statuesque through a short, sharp growl. He had no one to blame but himself really, allowing himself to be distracted well enough that Kuwabara, of all people, was able to capture him. The look on his face spoke toward his annoyance almost too easily.

Yusuke couldn't help but laugh at that look. "Geez Hiei, I know it's your first time playing, but come on. How could you let Kuwabara tag you already?" He was already taking off when he added in a flawlessly chastising tone, "Now stand there and think about what you've done. Someone will come around in a minute to let you out... if we remember." Through a short snicker, he was back in the open, and making a beeline for the redhead.

Fox:
He probably should have chased them, but the opportunity was way too good to pass up. With a smug, triumphant laugh he stood before the short demon, towering over him with fists on his hips. "Not such hot stuff now," he reached out and poked the surprisingly squishy cheek tauntingly. "Huh Hiei." Oh, this would be fun...

With a sudden, intense thrill that lingered before simmering down, the fox disappeared into the trees, but came to a slow stop to wait for his boyfriend. The thrill ran through him again. "Perhaps I should have tagged Hiei before running off," he admitted, but there was a delightful gleam of amusement in his eyes. It was always a sadistic pleasure to knock Hiei off of his pedestal now and again.

EDDE:
Unlike his loud counterpart, Hiei had no need to yell or clamor in order to get his annoyance across. Instead, his eyes landed up on the tall figure, and their narrowing, along with that of his lips spoke all the threat for him. A look that, given his personality, spoke volumes on how little he cared about winning this particular game; at least, when it came to what he would do if the large human continued to touch him. The taunting he could care less about, however he wouldn't tolerate the touching.

Hurrying after the redhead, he slowed when Kurama did. Chuckling cruelly at the comment, he offered a shrug. "Eh. He deserves to be able to get back at the punk every once in a while." At his own comment, he looked behind them. "Whiiiich is probably what he's doing, cause I don't think he followed us."

Fox:
While Kuwabara took the silent warning and removed his poking finger, he still gloated over the smaller demon with a big stupid grin. "Well I guess I better leave you then. Gotta catch Kurama and Urameshi, where'd they go..." It seemed he stopped talking to Hiei halfway through the sentence, hand lifted to his forehead to try and catch a glimpse of them.

"It seems so," the fox agreed, a light chuckle rumbling his shoulders. "Shall we concoct a scheme to retrieve out fallen comrade? If you can provide an adequate distraction, I may be able to tag Hiei."

EDDE:
The petite demon found no qualm with the loss of that attention, doing what he could to ignore the giant buffoon still standing there through his focus on remaining stark. Admittedly though, he was having a bit more difficulty than he would have liked through the onset of the forced need. And not being able to goad at the fool himself turned annoying rather quickly as he found he suddenly had plenty to say.

The smile that graced the detective's lips for the treat he received in response to his pondering faded about as quickly as it took for Kurama to finish whatever the Hell he'd just spewed out. It was replaced with a bit of a pout through a perceived attempt to confuse him purposefully with all those big words that made little sense to him. "You do realize that just about all I got outta that was 'might be able to tag Hiei', right?" It was droned, and his own version didn't even mimic his boyfriend's properly.

Fox:
Wonderful. The fox lifted a hand to hide his snickering lips, and take the moment to collect himself. Yusuke was far too much fun to baffle, and he simply couldn't help himself. "My apologies, Yusuke," he offered with a smile that spoke to just how sincere his words were. "In layman's terms; you distract Kuwabara, while I rescue Hiei." Kurama perked up when their taller (and possibly louder) friend came sprinting through the trees at them full force.

"Split up," he ordered before taking off once more. Figuring Kuwabara would choose to chase after Yusuke, the fox planned to swing around and head for Hiei.

EDDE:
That pout only persisted through the insincere apology. And, apparently, misunderstood wording of the lighter version, as he mumbled only slightly grudgingly, "I'm not lame. You're lame."

Kuwbara's heavy footed approach turned his attention immediately, however. "Oh, crap." And he peeled off in a separate direction from Kurama almost before being told to do as much.

But he had to stop. Because Kuwabara didn't turn on him. Instead, he kept right on after the redhead. Through an odd flare of his own overprotective nature--for a game, anyway-- he skidded to a halt and booked it right on after Kuwabara instead. "Hey! Just where the Hell do you think you're going?!"

Fox:
The fox realized his mistake when Kuwabara came crashing through the trees, but it was too late to abort the mission. If nothing else, he could release Hiei and he and Yusuke would be able to free him... If Yusuke hadn't just barreled past the tree line after Kuwabara.

"Idiot!" Kuwabara turned his head to look over his shoulder while still bee-lining it to Kurama. "What are you doing? I'm supposed to chase you!" Without looking where he was going, their tallest member crashed into the red head.

Still, the fox managed to reach out and clasp Hiei on the shoulder before he felt Kuwabara run into him.

EDDE:
The look on Hiei's face as the three of them came racing toward him was comical. Stark confusion over the scene plastered across his face almost wildly for the three humans' interaction that seemed to make absolutely no sense for what he'd been told about the game. It wasn't until he realized that they weren't slowing down enough to come to a proper halt that the look wiped straight off his face and his eyes narrowed.

The moment he felt the pressure of the redhead's hand, he took a great leap through a flawless grace that had him landing on a close branch above the following train wreck he'd easily predicted.

"Oh yea." The chuckled out realization was all Yusuke could really give for the reminder he'd been given. And not just for the following catastrophe of events; events that landed him squarely on the ground, just barely able to catch his full weight from crushing the redhead.

Kurama and Kuwabara stopped short, and Yusuke hadn't slowed in the least despite being reminded of his place in the game. "Shit!" Through a yelped out attempt not to ram headlong into the large ginger, the detective managed to side-step him and avoid him just so; and yet there was still a glancing blow that had them touching. The force of the other two hitting each other however, knocked the fox right into the empty space he'd been aiming for.

And after the tumble the force of his own movement put on them, he could only manage that silly grin of his once he'd caught up with the turn of events. "Well this ain't exactly what I was aiming for, Butcha won't hear me complain." And he added through a near torrid tone that was low enough to grace the ears of the fox purely for their proximity, "Better view than I was hoping for too."

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
He wasn't sure how they got there. It was a blur of awkward movements that he got himself caught in. The fox landed on his back, and sharply tensed when Yusuke landed on top of him. Not for the position, but because Yusuke's knee came far too close to crushing a very important part of his anatomy. The relief of the miss had him sighing and relaxing once more.

"Heh heh," Kuwabara stood above them with a stupid grin on his face. "Take that Urameshi!" he goaded, but turned his attention to the direction Hiei ran off in. "Sorry Kurama!" he offered in condolence before darting off.

Kurama hands had found purchase on the others shoulders in reaction to the possible crushing. Kuwabara's words fell on deaf ears as Shuichi looked up at his boyfriend with the tiniest hint of color in his cheeks. Not from embarrassment per say, but because not so long ago they were in the exact same position in a much more erotic context. "I have no qualms," he teased.

EDDE:
He could have gone for embarrassed himself, but that crass nature of his had struck out instead. The grin slithered into a sly smirk as his eyes travelled over the other teen's face before landing back into those brilliant eyes. "Yea? Would you have any if I wanted to kiss you?" The tease was pointed toward the one he'd offered earlier on the swings.

A short chuckle had left the miniscule demon's lips as he watched the calamity take place. If he hadn't avoided it, both of the two on the ground probably would have landed on him; not that he'd ever been worried about it. And he kept to the trees as he moved away, a taunting stare turned down on the ginger following his lead as he gained the upper hand once again. "Well are you coming after me or not?" The mocking was cruel, as despite the fact that he was keeping the pace that had been set for this game, he knew the idiot didn't have the sort of grace that would allow him to actually catch him up there.

"Watch closely." He added through a rather cocky grin. "You don't want to lose me." As he said as much, he moved higher in the branches, effectively removing himself from sight. And unlike the others, he was able to halt himself instantly once he knew the inferior creature's eyes had lost him. Putting the loud-mouthed buffoon in his place never ceased to amuse.

Fox:
"I suppose this does count as catching me," he started with a playful smile of his own. The hands on Yusuke's shoulders shifted to slide along his back. "And we only lose if we are seen moving. I would enjoy a kiss immensely."

Kuwabara huffed and puffed as he followed the little squirt into the trees. "Hey, that's cheating! Get out of the trees you squirrel!" But the demon was gone. He lifted a hand to his forehead, trying to get a better look at the trees, but it was nothing but shadows and branches.

Grumbling all the way, the lovable oaf started climbing up the branches. Hey, Hiei and Kurama made it look easy! He could do it too. The thought that went through his mind as a branch snapped and he tumbled painfully, but harmlessly to the ground.

EDDE:
Yusuke managed to recognize how very true that was. And, in fact, Kuwabara had already been given a pass for it anyway, so if they wanted to push it. Not that he cared all that much. The game was fun, and the thought of making out in secret while waiting to be freed or for the next round was nearly as exciting as the bleacher situation. Chuckling lightly through the quick thought process, he leaned down and fitted their lips together quite smoothly; bordering on innocent as his hands remained in place where they'd landed in holding himself up. Why? Because neither of them needed yet another repeat of their early bout of shown affection.

It was actually rather difficult to quell the cruel chuckle that bubbled in Hiei's chest as he watched the fool flit right back to the ground in his attempt. But he managed without making a sound; just as silent as he moved to make his way back toward the others.

It was harder to move. This speed, coupled with branches that were much further apart now that he was up higher, forced him to take a great deal more care than usually needed for such an advance.

Fox:
Those lips were freeing. The innocent touch had the fox melting, and sighing through his nose as his own pair's responded. It began innocent as well, but Shuichi couldn't stop himself from brushing the tip of his tongue against Yusuke's lower lip. A silent plea for just a little more as his fingers slipped into the soft black hair... He found himself missing the hardened gel spikes.

"Hehe, pretty birds. What are you doing here?" Kuwabara's eyes swirled and his foot twitched. "Hehe, one, two three..."

EDDE:
A light shiver rolled through his veins as the sweet kiss he'd been offering was changed, and he allowed it to continue on through his features. His own tongue responded in kind without much permission, only it drew even further as it darted out of his own mouth and leapt into the redhead's to apply that tickling pressure Kurama reacted so pretty toward at the roof of his mouth.

But he pulled it away just as quickly, their lips still barely touching as a groan rattled from his chest while freeing a hand and allowing it to pet delicately down the side of the fox's chest and stomach despite the arduous task of attempting to hold back. "Now look what you did." The tease was incredibly light, as he couldn't help but enjoy the change his boyfriend had set through him so easily.

The small creature was taking his time, in no hurry to catch back up with the other two given their sorry capture. Not to mention, Kuwabara was of no consequence anymore... not that he had been much of one previously.

Fox:
His body rolled in time with the tickling tongue tip. His eyes fluttered shut as he tilted his head to fit their lips together better, huffing softly as the other pair pulled away much too quickly. "Oh? And what have I done?" he asked with a low chuckle.

Kuwabara finally managed to roll himself up onto his legs with an unsteady sway. "Hey, come back guys. I'll put you back in the tree," he assured the twittering birds still spinning around his head.

EDDE:
That roaming hand continued right back up. Only it hit skin this time, dragging the borrowed loose shirt as it went. "You know what you did." The accusation was all but growled out against the fox's ear as he moved to suck and nibble at that sensitive flesh Kurama had recently re-introduced him to. And back down that hand went before tracing along the waist band of those sweats. Tickling over his naval once, it came round a second time on its route back over and up.

"You did it on purpose, didn't you, ya little mynx?" This particular accusation rumbled through his chest in a similar way, though it was accompanied with a low chuckle. He backed off the attention he'd been paying the sensitive skin at his ear, that had just barely changed to a long grooming licking over that beautiful slender neck.

"So what's yer secret, hm?" The tease was just as wonderfully heated as the rest of it, having shifted just a pitch lower as it seemed it did naturally when talking to his fox in such a way. "How come you drive me crazy so easy?"

Fox:
A soft breath of air left his lips, and the fox couldn't stop himself from lightly arching into the touch. Each graze of calloused palms started shivers and left goose bumps in its wake and the growl so close to his ear started a flush. The moan that laving tongue pulled from him had the fox worrying over the possibility of a much stronger reaction. However, the more he was touched, the more he realized his body was far too spent for an erection to grow under such little stimulation.

Shuichi tried and failed to hide a pout when his boyfriend pulled away. "Your grammar is atrocious," he accused, resting back against the grass and trying to tug Yusuke back down with him. "And you are mistaken, Yusuke," he answered before touching their lips, molding them together slowly. "You are the one who has driven me to madness," he breathed, breaking the kiss for a moment to do so, but returning to it eagerly.

EDDE:
That giddy smirk of his accompanied his agreement. "Damn right it is. What of it?" Though it was easily too proud for him to have understood what it actually meant; and, while that was certainly true, it also didn't matter because it was usually a good idea to agree with Kurama. It wasn't often that he was wrong. Besides, he couldn't care less if it was an insult or something. He was much more interested in the adorable redhead beneath him.

His look softened a bit as he was corrected, while his focused sharpened. "Yea?" Somehow the simple word was a rather loaded question, and he only pulled away from the sweet attention of those lips for it and the non-threatening threat that followed in the same sort of growl. "I'll show you crazy."

As he found the kiss again, he set to work playing at various pressures against the roof of the redhead's mouth with his tongue. And that roaming hand found it's way down under the fox's waistband through slowly tracing designs down his chest and stomach. His fingers continued to play once they'd broken past the barrier, lightly tracing pets along the full length of his cock with short pauses to offer far too gently pressured massages to the head before starting over again.

He allowed more of his weight to fall onto the redhead, revealing his own slow grown issue in the form of a pressure against his thigh. Yusuke was in no way exhausted. Even as he had been thinking previously on his own probable need for rest, he'd known he hadn't actually needed it; but he'd be damned if he was going to be the only one to have grown so horny during their little make-out session.

The thought brought the excitement the earlier encounter at the bleachers across his mind once again. There was a skip in his pulse for the thrill thinking on his following words brought about. Pulling from the kiss once again, his attentions drew back to the delicious neck so perfectly exposed to him in this position. "You know," he began, pauses taken variously in his words for those long leaving licks to draw across the flesh there. "They could show back up any second." He decided pretty easily that he loved the taste of Kurama's skin, even given the somewhat salty addition from before, as they hadn't washed away their most recent sweaty encounter. "They might see." The offering was given in the same tone he'd used when warning Shuichi of his fellow classmates' approach previously; and easily held just a such promise left to the other teen's discretion at this point.

He wasn't sure still if Shuichi had truly been upset with him over the bleacher situation, and that was the only thing holding him back from simply continuing on to take that large leap he suddenly had that morning. No, Shuichi would have to ask for it, or at the very least tell him he wanted more than the gentle teases he could only hope were growing torturous the longer he was doing it.

 

[EDDE]

Fox:
The predatory gleam in his lover's eyes sent a rush of heat through his whole form. He opened his mouth to speak, but was wonderfully silenced by lips covering his own. He moaned into it as the tongue tip brushed and tickled along the roof of his mouth. The light, ticking brushes garnered more of a reaction from the fox than the harder pressures; but he wasn't complaining either way.

Hand pet his skin, and the laving tongue left his mouth for his neck and Kurama sighed sweetly under the attention. The word brought warmth to his cheeks. Their friends could find them at any moment; Hiei would be an embarrassing encounter, but should Kuwabara come across them he would be positively humiliated... The though had him swimming in a wave of lust that threatened to consume him; but despite that, his exhausted body refused to comply.

The shaft in Yusuke's hand remained soft, in fact any touches to the head pulled a soft hiss from Shuichi and his hips jerking away. "Not the head, Yusuke," he said quickly, disappointment clear across his face. "It has become painfully sensitive." But he wanted it. So badly he could taste it. He wanted Yusuke to tease him into ejaculating in the park, with their friends far too close for comfort. He whined a soft apology and let his head rest back against the grass with closed eyes and the hint of a pout on his lips.

EDDE:
Disappointment colored the teens features as he had the urge to lift that waistband and have a good look through an almost disbelieving reaction. It was an urge he didn't follow through on, though his attention did shift down. And it wasn't just disappointment on his face either. Quite possibly looking a bit hurt as well.

After all, he was just told that he drove his lover crazy, and yet he couldn't seem to even excite him well enough to get to that point. He couldn't help but wonder what exactly he was doing wrong for his attentions not to garner the response his own body was feeling a bit too heavily. The feeling was in no way pointed at the redhead beneath him as his attention shifted from the head and pulled into a generous, but careful stroking.

Maybe Shuichi really didn't like the excitement he got that the thought of being caught in such a compromising position; and that only made him feel bad for the experience under the bleachers as well.

He wasn't sure why Shuichi was apologizing either. It wasn't like it was his fault or anything. Quickly, he leaned down and pecked away at the apology, again not liking his tendency to do that, but not willing to complain about it either.

A pout that was more serious than usual stretched across his features as he watched the other boy change position. "What should I do?" He felt stupid for having to ask, his tone a lot softer through the shift in his mood; several worries roaming through his mind all at once. He felt quite lost all over again, bothered for the first time by his ignorance when it came to this.

Fox:
The sweet kisses washed away the pout on his lips. The fox sighed happily, offering soft smooches in response, but didn't follow when Yusuke moved back. The stroking hand was no longer painful, but still not enough to pull a reaction from his unresponsive body. His expression turned to a slight frown when he caught the look on his lover's face. "There is nothing you can do," he admitted softly.

Shuichi placed a hand on the others chest to lightly push and guide him backwards. An idea came to him that caused a playful gleam in his eyes. He couldn't leave his boyfriend hanging, but more importantly he couldn't stand that expression; so he guided Yusuke back until the detective was sitting on the ground and he was settled between them. "Do not look so downtrodden," he soothed, that hand petting down until it cupped over the covered erection.

With a delighted hum, the fox leaned in to place kisses over the others neck while dexterous fingers pulled the shaft free. "This has caused me such ecstasy tonight," he purred into the teen's ear. "So much so I simply cannot handle anymore." A soft kiss to the lobe of the ear he was purring into, and Shuichi began to move down. "Shall I show it my gratitude?" He asked with his lips just brushing over the tip.

EDDE:
Well that was just great. What a sucky answer. There had to be something he could do, right? But he was distracted from thinking on what that might be. The movement had him removing the valiant effort to follow through and allow his fox to lead him in the change.

Of course, he couldn't help that look on his face, having decided he needed to figure out what he could do despite the denial, and just what it was he was doing wrong. It had to be something. But then Shuichi was just so horribly distracting. And he honestly couldn't complain about it for the light shiver that rolled through his veins at the changed attention. He hadn't been looking for the switch in the least.

Each freed hand landed at the redhead's hip and shoulder respectively as he gained a sharp need to swallow forming through the light noise that was offered against his throat; a hot puff of air puffing from his chest to follow it. The words that were offered had heat rapturing him on a devastating level; so much so that a low groan that bubbled in his chest just missed interrupting the continuance.

Even if he didn't recognize it, that look had been wiped off his face incredibly well. A mixture of sharp, odd modesty and a swelling of pride replaced the hurt that had crossed him and formed his features into a similarly timid look; at least until Shuichi's attention pulled a craving he could barely comprehend through him. Again he groaned, formed into a hungry whine of the other teen's name, his response readily provocative through tone alone with a light shift of his hips. "Please."

Fox:
That was a much better look. The fox hummed softly before placing an opened mouth kiss to the tip. He briefly considered making this quick, as he had behind the bleachers; but Yusuke was making such a cute face. Emerald eyes gazed up through thick red lashes to focus on the detective's expressions as he dragged the flat of his tongue from the base of the shaft to the tip.

"Intoxicating," he moaned pointedly before his tongue returned to that delicious petting. The fox licked and kissed up the sides and suckled at just the tip, but the head never slipped past his lips.

EDDE:
Puppy brown eyes were all but glued to the emerald pools peeking up at him, only able to detach for a moment at a time through that sad attention span that had his attention pooling far too heavily on sinfully sweet tongue and lips through the continued movement. Another groan; a warmly huffed breath.

While all but forced to use the hand that had landed at the other teen's hip previously for support against the ground now, the one rooted at his shoulder slid up and through red locks. Landing in Shuichi's bangs and offering an unwitting petting through them, his features relaxed and tensed all at the same time as that wonderful tingle set visible little shivers through him variously.

Still, he couldn't help himself, a tease on his lips that was in no way meant offensively; certainly for how it was purred out. "Ya know, I think you're too smart for your own good." The start set the slightest of smirks across his lips as he took the moment to bask in the lovely picture painted for him of the redhead like that. He certainly liked that picture. "No one should be able to make a single word sound so damn good." Especially a word that held such strong negative connotations for him in particular... although he did realize he hadn't had the head to notice as much before with its use.

Fox:
Those warm eyes fluttered as fingers threaded into the soft locks that made up his bangs. It was a simple gesture, but one he found himself relishing in. He refused to acknowledge the comparison to a happy pet being praised by its master. "I believe I will take that as a compliment," he purred in return before his lips pressed against the ridged flesh once more.

A trail of kisses followed the underside and ended with the fox suckling on the sensitive spot just below the head. With great care he applied pressure with his teeth, not enough to hurt, but hopefully enough to leave a possessive hickey. Mine. The suction pulled away with a slick sound, and the fox hummed in delight at the little red mark he'd left behind.

Green eyes were sparkling as he returned to bathing the shaft before him with his tongue. He took in a deep breath through his nose, and groaned at the assault of musk that had him silently pleading with his body to respond. No luck. "Such a beautiful thing," he purred, rubbing his cheek against the shaft in an adorable nuzzle. "Too small and I may have been left disappointed," his tongue flicked over the tip. "Too large and I would have been in more pain than pleasure," He took the head between his lips and offered a short suction before pulling away again. With a predatory gleam in his eyes he continued, "You fill me perfectly."

Shuichi moved; slow and deliberate up his lover's torso. His left hand held his balance on the ground, while the right lifted to offer a light stroking. Too light to bring him over the edge... Or perhaps it would be. If accompanied with the right stimulus. What ever the reaction, the fox was eager to see it.

Leaning in he placed a kiss to Yusuke's cheek, then a trail over his jaw line to his ear; and with a desperate moan only partially faked, mewled against the shell of his ear. "I love your cock Yusuke."

EDDE:
It certainly had been at least half a compliment, and he wasn't willing to argue the point and change the attention of that wicked mouth just yet. That suction, even with the addition of his teeth, had him repositioning just slightly. Digits of both hands curled to take a heavy grip in the grass as his back straightened of its own accord and he took the few moments Shuichi's mouth was otherwise occupied to groan out his name through a soft stream of bated breath.

Such pointed attention to the throbbing organ was exhilarating on a level he simply couldn't comprehend. And in fact, he had words; plenty of words. But for once he was absolutely unwilling to use them as not to interrupt the praise he was receiving. Because Kurama's were drawing him straight to the end of his nerves, and had his breath so horribly uneven he wasn't even sure they'd form properly in the first place.
Through them, he lost sight of the redhead through an involuntary closing of his eyes.

The sudden change that followed was what peeled the lids apart again and turned drowning attention back down on the redhead as he crawled up his body. His own mouth had gone dry, and soft hums and groans cracked lightly under the crushing pressure the lewd, somehow still somewhat proper words had mounted in him, and even despite that change, he was so utterly floored there was little hope of calming down.

And then; that sentence. The sharply huffed breath it drew from his chest was cut short through the change of a whimper that caught in his throat for both the surprise and acceptance as the accumulative of absolutely everything his boyfriend had just done, topped with that deliciously indecent finish brought about a rather uncouth end to him.

And he barely allowed himself to revel in the feeling for a moment before a horrible heat filled his chest and face; insane embarrassment for his sudden, and quite graceless finish squashing down any pleasure he might be able to derive from having been driven over the edge. Having fallen victim to the overtly tempting behavior so easily--so quickly-- had him feeling absolutely pathetic within moments of it happening.

Fox:
How cute. The fox hummed softly as his hand took a firmer hold to help pump out every drop. He pulled back when Yusuke had finished, and lifted his hand with his palm up. "For someone with such a 'hard heart," he paused to run his tongue over the open palm, collect the semen to slowly swallow it all down. "You seem to be quite sensitive," the fox finished with a devious glimmer in his eyes.

Shuichi shifted down again, this time to run his tongue over the cum painting Yusuke's abs. A kiss was placed over the belly button before he added. "I find it endearing."

EDDE:
Already his face had flushed and drawn into a perfect picture of humiliation all on its own. The cruel jab twisted into its own double entendre only pulled that look into a harsh pout, drawn heavier as the redhead's tongue drew across his skin all over again. Endearing or not, there was no stopping the bit of tantrum that was dragged out from all that heat berating him so heavily. And he took the breath, opening his mouth to shoot it off in a way that was so perfectly him.

"Really, must you make such a scene?" The heat rolling through his veins turned to ice just about instantly at the snooty, over sure, crappy little tone that rang out from the tree the bored looking fire demon was sitting in. Again his ego drew up, and he moved to make a comment, but it was apparently no match for the crushing embarrassment he was feeling at the moment considering that all that came out was a bit of a babble; which caused him to shrink just a bit more, only able to stare a bit blindly at the ground with slightly widened eyes.

Sure, the thought of being caught had been quite exciting, but that didn't mean he'd actually wanted it to happen. And not just that, but what he'd obviously seen. Through a shortly clipped out "Ha," as his show of amusement, the petite demon hopped down from his spot. Okay, so it wasn't his only show of amusement. There was that superior smirk of his that only broadened as Yusuke looked in the absolute opposite direction through a turn of his head. Though his eyes traveled down toward the fox.

"Well, if you're finished, I thought I'd let you know that you've both lost as well now." His attention finally shifted from the detective down to the redhead, though it didn't seem he had anything else to add just yet. Still, the bit of light dancing in his eyes clearly spoke of his amusement toward that human modesty.
