[ At this point holiday parties are to be expected, just as much as spells and mistletoe. Four years of routine and tradition aren't often broken, especially by the DR, and the annual Christmas Eve party is here. There's not a big ballroom this year, or a large snowy landscape. Just a large room, decorated with soft couches and sofas, a large, warming fireplace with stockings hung up, and an enormous fresh Christmas tree, decorated in red and green and silver. It's nothing huge, but there are candles on shelves and the table, wreathes on the doors, and two other doors. One is a sliding glass door on the opposite end that leads to a pier over the water, lined with icicle lights, and the other leads to a snowy outdoor area filled with mysteriously docile and friendly reindeer. Who knows? Maybe some of them can even fly.

There are probably a few people who only come for the food, and they won't be disappointed. There are two tables lined with party foods. Sweets, cheeses, sausage and mini sandwiches. No matter how much is taken they never seem to run out, and there's a smaller round table of drinks, including punch and eggnog.

Formal wear seems to be a given, even with the comfortable atmosphere, and anyone who didn't at least try to dress semi-formal will find themselves in something more festive. ]

[mmmm. he is welcome to use his mouth as much as he wants, she's not complaining in the slightest. but what she does want is for him to have his bony self on top of her, so she moves her arm so it's around him more and moves over onto her back, hopefully carrying him with her.]

[hallowedshore]

[He gets the picture and follows her, don't worry. He doesn't plan on pinning her down or anything, but he's been on top of her plenty, for sure. If she doesn't mind he'll just get himself between her legs, too.]

[crownofembers]

[he'd be welcome to pin her down sometime, but now is not that time. and that's a fine place for him to be, in her opinion. besides, face to face like this makes it a lot easier to get her arms around his neck and one hand back in his hair.]

So, did you have anything specific in mind?

[hallowedshore]

[That was a pretty good mental derail there, Inaya. He stares at her for a few seconds, because stopping to think or actually talk about these things is a pretty sure-fire way to embarrass him, still, but... he's mostly staring because the answer should be obvious.]

Why? Did you?

[crownofembers]

[yeah, sorry about that. she wouldn't normally, but great stuff could happen because of this. she looks away and goes a bit pinker than she already was, and squirms a little bit nervously.]

Nnno, but I mean, if you wanted, I um. Got some uh. So we could. You know. If you wanted.

[hallowedshore]

[He stares at her even longer for that, turning a little pink himself, but that's primarily because she's turned so pink. He's also more embarrassed for his next question, and leans up a little.]

What?

[crownofembers]

[okay well. there goes the nervousness; she thought she was being perfectly clear in that there's only one thing she could really be talking about. she huffs and lets go of him to stretch off to the side in a way that probably gets him a facefull of boobs, reaching to retrieve something from next to her bed. there's a small crinkly noise, and then he's getting a facefull of a single wrapped condom. she's bright red by now.]

[hallowedshore]

[Hi boobs. Hi. Hey, he has a couple ideas of what she might be talking about! But they are varied and some more extreme than others, and while condoms crossed his mind, he didn't think that was actually going to happen. When he sees it up close like that he jerks up even more, eyes going wide and face turning so pink he looks human. He looks embarrassed and so fucking far out of his element right now, even if they've been fooling around doing so much else before now. He's speechless.]

[crownofembers]

[she sighs a little and drops it next to them on the bed so she has both hands free to take hold of his dumb face and kiss him. it was going to be awkward whenever it happened, but she was hoping he'd take it better than this. boys are silly. :( i mean, she's still slightly flustered and blushing, but.]

I didn't just break you, did I?

[hallowedshore]

I'm fine.

[No he's not, he's freaking out. He's embarrassed as all hell, and freaking out, and embarrassed for freaking out at all. He's calming down, but he's having a hard time looking her in the eye. This is not what he was expecting, and he's not altogether sure he can do this. Hands are one thing, even mouths, but... And it's nothing against Inaya, not at all. He's still hung up on his own issues.]

Are you-- I mean. Fuck. Are you sure you want to?

[crownofembers]

Would I really have suggested it if I didn't? Yes, I want to. Like, a lot. But we don't have to right now, I was just putting the offer out there.

[does she want sex a lot or does she want a lot of sex. the answer is yes to both. she's very sorry for freaking him out but to be perfectly honest, they probably both know that if they waited for him it would be another couple of years. and isn't this better than having a mutual cockblock because they got into it and she wasn't prepared like this? also in her opinion it seems like having your mouth on someone else's bits would be way more intense/committed/intimate than actual sex, but that's probably because she hasn't HAD actual sex (yet).]

[hallowedshore]

[That was a stupid question and he regrets asking it immediately, and he turns another nice shade of red at her answer. Yeah he had... basically no plans to do this, at all. Eventually, maybe, but it wasn't high on his list. Not that he doesn't want to, that is the complete opposite of his problems, it's just... What the fuck is he doing there. He doesn't know. He does know that he's way fucking turned on just by her putting out that offer, and she probably knows it too!]

... I don't not want to.

[crownofembers]

[she does, and wiggles very slightly under him and against him before kissing him again.]

I can tell, and I figured that'd be the case, since you're so skittish when it comes to thinking about this stuff. So stop thinking about it, we can just do what we've been doing and if it goes there then that's more than great, and if it doesn't then that's just fine too. Just relax, okay?

[she's one to talk, really, since she's still blushing and slightly tense herself, but it could be at least partially arousal at this point.]

[hallowedshore]

Yeah right.

[He grins at her, though, and it's only slightly a forced action. He appreciates the kiss and the immense tolerance she has for him being such a dumbass when it comes to Sexual Matters like this, which is why he leans down to kiss her back. It's a little longer and a little more heated than the one she gave him.]

[crownofembers]

[well hello. she puts her arms around his neck to keep him there, and bends one leg so he's even more settled between her thighs. she's perfectly comfortable being the one in charge since he is such a dumbass about these things, and it's a nice challenge to be that way without just ordering him into doing things.]

[hallowedshore]

[She'll definitely have to be the one in charge here. It's not even that he's particularly submissive in the traditional idea, he's just... not really sure what he's doing and more than a little nervous. Still, this much he does know how to do, with his hands at her waist and moving along her hips and maaaybe inching up to her breasts, all sneaky like (except not).]

¯\(º_o)/¯

[crownofembers]

[as he probably knows by now, his hands are welcome to go wherever they please, up to and including if they were somehow detached from his arms and given mobility of their own. whenever one of them breaks the kiss for some air, she's going to switch to kissing along his jawline, fingers scritching lightly at his scalp. this is going to go at whatever pace he sets, since she spooked him like that.]

^ aden rn

[hallowedshore]

[His whole arm is just going to fall off sometime soon now that that's been said. He'll go on about his day and just leave it with her or something. And by that I mean she probably won't be able to go out in public because of it. Also they're definitely not going to be able to do this in a reasonable pace if she lets him pick it, she might have to be a little more aggressive. He has ideas of what he should do, but not quite how to make them a reality, and more than a little hesitance about this entire situation. He knows what he wants, but he's really not sure about what he can bring himself to do. He's also nervous he's going to fuck this up right away, which is an understandable feeling even when you're not completely messed up about it.

Aden doesn't really move at first once the kiss is broken, closing his eyes and trying to remember that he is still half human and still needs to breathe on occasion. A few seconds later he drops his face to press it against it against the side of hers, blowing out a long breath and sliding down with a hum so he can put his mouth right on top of the pulse in her neck. At least one hand is going to her breast, but just the one. For now. Just to feel her, starting from her hip and going up in a line across her stomach.]

this is actually the slowest porn thread i think i've ever done, and i'm very sorry for that /)_(\

[crownofembers]

[point taken. it'll go at the pace she sets, then, as long as he seems reasonably okay with it. even if they don't end up ~going all the way~ tonight, it'll still be great, as it always is at this point. they haven't done anything enough to be tired of it, and Inaya, at least, has a sex drive that's pretty much always on.

she arches up slightly under his hands, wherever they might be, and curls her fingers in his hair just to feel it, and to have something to hold onto. she already doesn't want to still have panties on, but pushing Aden away enough to get rid of them is absolutely out of the question. he smells too good and feels way too nice on top of her and between her legs to make him move for even a few seconds.]

So I can pretty much bend you to my will whenever I want just by taking my shirt off, right?

[hallowedshore]

[Psh. Since they're doing this anyway he's going to give her a nice series of marks and bruises, sucking on her neck low at her throat and scraping his teeth across the wet skin he leaves behind. It's wintertime, turtlenecks are in fashion. Right? Right. He is laughing into her neck when she says that, moving his hand up under her breast and spreading his fingers out.]

As if you couldn't do that anyway.

[Maybe he should start calling her "mistress", see how long it takes her to hit him.]

[crownofembers]

[...longer than he might expect, um. but she got him to laugh, and it wasn't a nervous laugh, which is good. she doesn't want this to be awkward, or at least not uncomfortably so.

she grins when he laughs, and tips her head back so he can get to more of her throat. it does cause some issues when he marks her up like this, but she loves it anyway. it's visible, lingering, intimate proof of affection and trust and closeness and whatever else. also it feels nice, just like where his hand is.]

Well. I'm not as good at it the normal way as some people are, unless you've been carefully hiding how manipulatable you really are.

[hallowedshore]

Maybe I have been.

[ As if he hasn't been at her beck and call since they were kids. Kira too, but that's in an entirely different context. (Or is it?) Speaking of marks, he's going to leave one with his teeth somewhere between her collar bone and the end of her shoulder. Not too painful, though. He probably sticks with leaving marks on her thighs and hips most of the time, so they can't be seen, and because he's got his face down there anyway and it's a fun thing to do. ]

I could be.

[ If that was what she wanted, he's saying. He hums against her throat and the bruise that's going to be there later, moving his hand back down her side and hooking his fingers under the band of her underwear. ]

/drives by

[crownofembers]

[it'd better be a different context. B| the use of teeth gets a shaky inhalation, and she's even more flushed than she already was. she's eager for things to move on, in whatever direction, and she's squirming impatiently under that hand. that hand derailed her train of thought, however, and she's only still attempting conversation because it seems like Aden's more comfortable with some of their usual banter going on.]

Could be what?

[hallowedshore]

Manipulatable.

[Obviously. He is acting much more comfortable and casual, even though there's still that underlying feeling of terror and being totally lost, and conversation is a big part of that. He shifts up so there's (regrettably) less contact, but also perhaps more of a sense that he's over her. It's normally a pretty clearly dominant move, but in this case it's not. Not at all. She already knows she needs to pull the strings here, but he's basically saying he'll do whatever she says, easily.]

[crownofembers]

[gosh. if there's less contact, that means there's room for her to wiggle around and get her underwear at least halfway off, and probably also knee him in the ribs while extracting a leg. she's feeling nervous too, in waves, but if she can keep things moving and keep the conversation (mostly) away from what they're doing) they should both be okay. she's mostly free of her underwear now, and he needs to be too, although depending on what they end up doing it might not matter. >3> ]

Oh. Right. Well, you're at least manipulatable enough that taking my clothes off or offering you chocolate pretty much has you at my command, unless that wasn't you all those times.
