[This task is one Viktor is very well suited to, a precision based skill. He's also very good at controlling that third arm, already. Thanks, no doubt, to his many experiments and practice with the Hexclaw. Soon enough, the antlers are as clipped clean as they can be. The excess is discarded into bedside trash bin, despite Viktor having one or two bugbrained impulses to chew on the stuff. No. Nope. They have had enough cannibalism between them for one evening, reign it in, Vik. (Maybe another time he'll fail this restraint check.)]
These antlers... do they have much sensitivity to them? [He inquires as he reaches to rub a palm over the now smooth exterior of one. A gentle petting to match the rest of their tender and exploratory affections,
As for Hextech, Viktor cannot help a furrowed brow, looking serious as ever. Resigned, in a way,]
We spent... so much of our lives on Hextech. To just give up on it... [it felt so wrong, but Viktor remembers the Hexcore, he remembers it whispering to him, tempting him towards more and more extremes. He winces to think of Sky- of how she turned to dust-]
No. You're right. Anything else, but tampering further. So many others had to pay the price just for us to learn our lesson. No more.
[ jayce bobs his head in quiet agreement, even if that shifts the weight around in his skull in a way he's not yet accustomed to. there's a strange, equal balance on both sides, but depending on which side he tips the most it all starts to burden one half more than the other. the sensitivity is relative. on hard, bone-white branches, there's nothing to feel. where velvet still clusters and clings for dear life, there's a phantom touch that riles into a too sensitive shiver, that fades up until where the bone is prestine. he's distracted fram giving a more detailed answer, instead showing without words— palms caress bone and jayce closes his eyes, tilting into it.
it had been jayce's life for longer than he'd been alive. he may not have been privy to let it go at hextech's peak, but now? after he's seen what it could cause, what its done to rune terra, to viktor, to himself, what he's done with those damn weapons—
there was no other answer than to fix it, and stand by the true dream. they were their own paradox. jayce lifts his head carefully, now; he can't quite so how clean the antlers are, now, but it felt a touch more refreshing to the air cushioned around them. jayce steadys a hands on one side of his partner while the other tenderly guides viktor's golden gaze to his. his head bobs again, as if to gently confirm with the fortitude of his words: ]
I have everything I need.
[ there is one thing in his life that he'll never give up on. he knows it's not hextech. it's viktor. hextech was only a catalyst. a destructive spark in fate that brought them together. ]
[That's Viktor, cutting right to- well- the heart of what is being said. He levels his gaze to Jayce's with a steady and reaffirming look. They're in this together, no matter what is next for them. A pair, a partnership. Lovers, now, all said and yet not all done.
Pulling back that third arm and steadying his other two, Viktor holds each side of Jayce's biceps, giving them a gentle squeeze. A small smile. The look he gave the man when Viktor first told him his name. It felt like a lifetime ago,]
Would you like out of those shimmer stained clothes? [A little teasing, but given what Jayce has been through, he can be forgiven being a messy eater. As for Viktor's clothing, he couldn't very well fit into the uniform he arrived in. All he has to shed is a cloak he fashioned to hang around him, which is already pushed back behind his shoulders. He can unclasp that and push it off himself fully, letting the fabric fall in a heavy cascade to the floor of their room.]
[ words that could make the weakest man strong. a whisp of disbelief rushes past his lips and betrays the gentle curve of them. brushing away at the clasps of his unfastening cloak to hurry its impending descent. that look was lethal. it was nearly a decade back. so long ago, and yet— it's one of the sharpest memories he has. lucid and bright around the eyes, his lips, and it makes jayce's stress-wrinkled face melt with bittersweet nostalgia. he could kiss him.
he can. he does, with his partner's face in the contours of his hands, a short plant that ends in more teeth than plush flesh because of their spread. ]
I'm not usually this sloppy.
[ a continuation to any light jesting, he's fine with it— makes the reality of what it was a bit more bearable. a bite easier to process, smoother to swallow. jayce crosses his arms at the lower edges of a simple shirt taken off the racks of a gas station and makes a move to yank it toward his head. he'll need help. it's terribly easy to snag on an antler and tear.
underneath, he's all body hair he doesn't want to shave off anymore, and snug bandages around his bust to mask the ugly gape that never closes. he almost feels like— a silly fucking teenager doing something frisky in the backseat, or in the library. giddy, uplifted. he wants to keep feeling that way, although he feels silly with his face caught under stained purple cotton he can't get off because his hands knock into the sharp edges of bone. ]
[He can. He does. Viktor smiles into that kiss he's granted, feeling like it is a gift he's finally ready to accept. His love for Jayce was long held, firmly rooted in him, but it never fully bloomed. He just couldn't let it. There were too many complications, too much going on at any given moment. Even after arriving here, being confessed to naked in a shared bath, Viktor couldn't help be rebuke such feelings.
It is such a weight off his shoulders, to not repress this affection and fondness for the man before him. Even when Jayce is becoming trapped within a shirt with too small a neck hole.]
You are usually this ridiculous.
[The antlers are not going to give, so the shirt has to. Viktor reaches with his third arm and snip, snip, snip. He opens a larger spot at the neckline so there's room. Careful to follow a straight line, they could salvage it if neither of them tried ripping it off Jayce.]
I believe we'll need to modify your clothing to accommodate this, eeh, magnificent rack of yours.
[ well, there goes the shirt. in hindsight, the other changes he'd snagged would likely suffer the same skewering fate. jayce remembers a tailor on the network some days back. it could work. jayce's tongue clicks under muffled laughter. he couldn't really argue when his beard hid away most of the purple stain around his mouth, kissing having spruced the tinted color to his lips and leaving the shade a touch more natural. he is still very sloppy, and absolutely ridiculous to keep going like this at all. viktor was one and the same to even want anything with him this way. he waits just as ridiculously with his arms locked up in twists of fabric until they're cut loose and swiftly give way to his muscle. buttons and zippers for the rest of his unlife, likely. or just no shirts at all. no one would complain.
jayce's messy fingertips shave at the borders of the bandages, but otherwise decides against leaving the ugly laceration bare for such a moment. it can't be comfortable to look at. he knows it's not, for him. the few stitches that arcade had made was supposed to help, but who knew how much it's held up. he'd rather focus, for a moment, on what is teasingly magificent. ]
Like? Well... they give me a terrible urge to chew on you. I'll save that for elsewhere.
[threatening, Viktor, don't just say stuff like that. He's being good, no chewing yet.
His hands fall ever so softly over Jayce's bandaged chest, weary of what was beneath the bandages. Should they really be getting more intimate, knowing the state the man is in? Not all desires are well advised... Viktor will be careful. It feels rather sturdy beneath his palms, thumping with the beat of what was once his own heart. Now Jayce's. The more time goes by, the more suitable that becomes.]
Your heartrate is back up to normal. That's a good sign, I feel. And your skin- it's not so terribly pale. We need to keep you well fed, Jayce. Don't hesitate to ask me. Promise.
[ only because of his ribs does it feel anywhere close to solid. the bandages serve as the skin he needed for now, at least; as long as a terrible amount of pressure isn't applied where the strength of the gauze can run the risk of caving, they . . . should be fine. he can't let it dominate every chance he gets at happiness, so scarce already. jayce wants this proximity, and wants this intimacy. his brows make his eyes sincere in its somber lingering, but—
he is more alive now than he will ever be, going forward. fed. satisfied. powered. full. it was proven, lacking a choice to ignore it, and gods— he didn't even want to. it was too good. too fucking good to say no to, no matter the twinge of disgust still curled into a part of his brain that is dormantly human. he could cry at the thought, during, but he will swallow the bliss with no qualms.
it is not the first time jayce has made a promise either, but he is long done with breaking them. he hasn't broken his last. he will not break this one, closing his eyes and flattening the front of his forehead onto viktor's with his fingers knotting gently into chestnut locks of hair. he wouldn't make it about being filled and healthy. not after what he felt. not after it rivaled the intimate ectacy of sex itself. ]
I swear.
[ and, after a beat— jayce breaks the silence to keep his streak running. he'll be ridiculous, amplify his charm, tip his head sideways just enough to have their lips only ghostly inches away from locking, keeping a featherlight brush as he asks: ]
[Viktor's expression quirks a short smile at Jayce's charm, it really doesn't fail to land. Such a funny man, so adorable. The promise will be held close to his chest, fill the space there where his heart is missing. Not lost. He knows just where it is, where it belongs, with Jayce. Viktor's answer is to leaning in and snap up Jayce's lower lip between his teeth, gnawing there teasingly. His hands drag slowly down the man's front to hook fingers into the hem of his pants, tugging to bring attention there. These would be next off, after all.
He suckles at the man's lip as he pulls away to speak again, tasting the lingering ozone of shimmer clung there,]
Is that what you want, Jayce? For me to explore your body with tongue and teeth?
[ jayce enjoys every damn bit of it. a little curl of his lips to its sides doesn't pull the plush skin from its snare between teeth. if anything, sucking at them brings jayce's top lip into a pursing kiss back. the strong taste was less, by now, replaced with the increasing flavor of . . . his actual mouth, his saliva and pheromone. it's— alluring to him. magnetic to his receptive senses.
he's so . . . glad, to be warm. for both their sakes. digits link against fabric and wedge between the cotton, the flesh of his hips and the body hair that climbs his middle, bringing jayce to prop his palms behind him and allow clear access to buttons and zippers.
that doesn't go without his words to the pointed curve of viktor's jaw, connecting to his ear, ]
Considering what I'll be doing, [ for as long as being undead lasts, but that feels like a bit of a permanent condition, ] It's only fair.
[Jayce is glad to be warm, but Viktor is just glad he looks healthy again. Not so withered away, not reminding Viktor of himself as he deteriorated. He nuzzles his face against Jayce's while he's speaking to him. Joking. It's nice, to be so airy and playful to each other. For things to not feel entirely too dire and serious. Reminds him of good, old times.
The can have some good, present times. Even when things aren't the best, they can take solace and joy in each other.
All those poetics to say that Viktor is taking the other man's pants off, stripping him fully naked. Smirking to do so, even, bemused and eager.]
I want you to enjoy yourself. Fairness isn't so important, so long as that is accomplished.
[Viktor doesn't even know if this strange body of his is capable of arousal in turn, so he's not counting on this being "even" in the traditional sense. He'll take his pleasure in pleasuring Jayce, in bringing him comfort and the bonding, human closeness of sex. The shape that intimacy took didn't matter to Viktor, he just wants to provide and show his love however he can. Too long has that love gone unexpressed.]
[ though the glint in his partner's eyes tells him it's not a point of concern for them. they're long gone from traditional, aren't they . . . and that doesn't seem like an inconvenience to jayce. whatever feels best for the both of them. if it's touching, so be it. if it's more biting, so be that, too. as long as the push and pull was mutual, so long as the pleasure was intermutual, that is all the closeness they need. as long as they merge through the barriers of what is purely physical. that is all that jayce wants as the buckles and straps of his brace come undone by his giddy fingers, and his pants and undergarments slip right off from thigh to knees, scar and ankles. ]
Fairness aside, [ with the use of his hands returned to him, jayce can finally electrify viktor's structure by ghosting the rifts of his chitin and metallic shelling with palms and fingerpads. testing where muscle would be, applying more pressure to the juts of would-be bone and kissing the corners of his mouth feather light, continuous,. ] it's something I want.
[ until he presses harder, with invite, and want. ]
[He speaks soft and low against Jayce's lips in response,]
I want that too- mphh- [his mouth is suddenly pressed against, interrupting the words. Viktor smiles into it after the little flash of surprise. Ah, yes, Jayce is very eager. Adorable, but more than that, it is very bracing to Viktor. Makes him feel secure in this, as certain of their intimacy as he was in their lasting partnership. New ground to tread, very new with their bodies so changed, but better to have this exploration now and together than never.
He kisses Jayce back, open mouthed and greedy. His tongue seeks out Jayce's own, lapping against him with warmth, hoping to taste the man himself and not just the shimmer blood on his breath. Viktor feels along his teeth, along the gap in the center and the sharp pinpoints of Jayce's prominent canines. Amused by himself, Viktor's third arm reaches to back of Jayce's head to hold him there, leaving Viktor's other two hands room to explore the man's body. He can grope along Jayce's shoulders, his absurdly attractive arms. Viktor has crawled himself into the man's lap, one leg between Jayce's, straddling one of his thighs.
Does the kiss even need to break? Neither of them need air, anymore. The limitation no longer exists. They can just indulge and indulge,]
[ the pungency shared in their blood-blended saliva has become a fresh memory, long since swallowed and absorbed. now they may truly taste each other without pause, allowing the tidal flow of each back and forth from their mouths to enhance their probing— and gods is it good, to swallow viktor down and only needing a second of time to do it; the rest can go towards devouring him as his limbs catch tingling fire with every deliberate squeeze that jayce requites. he does have to breathe to make noise, and there is no way he wouldn't react viscerally to viktor's weight between his legs and on him. one gasp shoots in, a grunt blooms out, just as jayce's fingers investigate and hook into the metal handles of what would've been his hip bones. jayce wrenches him forward in a single tugging motion to finish slotting them in like pieces to a mechanism, spreading one thigh to accommodate the snug fit into his groin.
it's keeping up with the kissing, simultaneously, that's beginning to wear for him, containing a deep tremor as he seems to withdraw his lips with squeezing fingers rising up the slope of viktor's torso— it's not because his lips were kiss bruised, god he could care less and keep going. he wants to, but . . .
his brain has rewired. he's getting incredibly aroused, their legs chafe and a needy little rock of his hips forward and back spurs more pleasure, and pleasure spurs more want, and want makes him think to bite to experience that more again, and more on top of the physical satisfaction.
he doesn't need it— that'd be gluttony. but fuck does jayce find himself wanting it like another hit of an incredible drug. the next attempt at kissing him, jayce hovers lip to lip and steers his face sideways, his hands sliding below the small of his back. he doesn't want to give the idea that he wishes to stop when he doesn't, but— he'd feel much better with permission (or lack thereof, to which he'll force himself to listen). ]
[ then jayce makes a face, lips tights and carving a frown, but he really shouldn't be showing signs of complaint when he's the one who ducked his face away first, but then the frustration doubles because he is no longer kissing, when he'd like to have his mouth all over viktor's exoskeleton or arcane-flesh or whatever it was now, half mechanical and half-not, when he'd like to sink his teeth into his lips until they bruised, bite down on the meat of his neck and rut into him like some untamed stallion and let the spurt of blood escalate his pleasure more than touching him would, or maybe have both, at the same time—
greedy. was he always this greedy? jayce has always hit things like nails to a hammerhead when he wanted them. was the spike just a reflection of his fractured, untamed psyche or was there more to his monstrous changes? it takes a grind of his teeth to fall back on what he knows: science. it stays the hand of answering too oddly, where he'd perhaps regret it: ]
I'm not, [ weak. he still sounds miffed. fuck, ] I just— had the urge. Instinctual, [ with the flicking of his wrist, he's trying to figure out how to word it in a way he would overanalyse late. ] the feeling is . . . Similar, when compared to arousal.
[Viktor will call this like it is, Jayce loves this about him, as frustrating as that may also be,]
Your wires have gotten crossed.
[And whose fault is that-?]
I understand. It is... it has become much the same for me. Instinct, arousal, desire, hunger. All feel like the same thing, with far less distinction than before.
[he nudges his forehead to Jayce's, sighing beneath his breath. This is all so much more fraught than Viktor cares for, but then again, he accepts that to be with Jayce. They're both a mess,]
[ it's much easier a task to focus on sharing the mess than actually addressing it. jayce sucks his lower lip inward and heaves his frustration into his dead lungs. he'd hate to make viktor feel like a bag to be bled whenever he pleased. he also disliked the feeling of being denied something and someone he wanted at the same time (but he only does this to hinself!) am i going to need a muzzle? no, no. that doesn't sound quite right. the pressure against his forehead makes that need for proximity so monumental, pushing forward as if to will viktor within him, soul and all. he's sitting there in nothing but briefs with the biggest hard on he's ever had in the damn making. ]
I— want to try navigating. [ it's better than trying to unraveling that package. it's better than ruining the mood and burst the chances of all this pent up energy, years in closet because they simply couldn't permit themselves to do anything beforehand. that's simply another frustrating reminder of the time they lost, spread between jayce's political progress and viktor's goodbye. still left a sour taste to hayce's memory. there is a visceral part of jayce that needs, craves this. craves the proximity and the way this made and would continue to make him feel whole. ] Please.
[nudging his nose to fit besides Jayce's, Viktor keeps their foreheads met. He speaks, quiet and sincere, brushing their lips without fully meeting them,]
I want to give my everything to you, Jayce. [he's already given his heart, his blood, what more could he provide? Viktor will give and give, until all parts of him are mere replicas. It is a terrifying urge, self destructive and self replicating.
His whispered tone turns to something hot blooded,]
Allow me to sate your desires another way. My mouth upon you, this time... softly so.
[ how much more of viktor would have to be destroyed for jayce's wants? it felt like— too much. what if there comes a time where there is nothing left of him? only— scraps? jayce's marginally pink stained lips worry with an upwards crunch of his brows speaking concerned volumes, a space between them exposing the fixed gap of his front teeth as his knuckles slide down the slope of viktor's cheekbone, a thumb to the mole of his lip— and then the gentle plush of the lip itself. please, leave enough of you to stay with me and i'm sorry i can't stop, i want you so much.
his core reacts like colliding atoms, generating a heat that tingles up his throat and flushes his face hot with the blood he's consumed. even to that, he's too weak. he folds— he can't say no. ]
[Viktor reaches for the hand on his face, cupping his fingers overtop of Jayce's knuckles. He kisses Jayce's thumb, then tilts his face to kiss his other fingers, his palm, that rock fused to his wrist... it lights up beneath Viktor's touch.]
Relax, Jayce... I will treat you to some long overdue tenderness.
[He slowly parts from Jayce's hold, but it's only to rearrange so many spindly limbs further down. Viktor kisses Jayce's navel next. A few adoring, peppered kisses, which trail further along, towards his stiff cock. Landing on it, soon enough, because teasing Jayce any more feels cruel and unneeded. No, no, let the man have what is promised to him.
Viktor's plush lips and the hot air filtered through his strange, new body, exhaled upon him only because Viktor willed himself to. His tongue laps out and drags across the head, flashing wide and sunken eyes upward for approval,]
[ oh, the way down is treacherous in the best way possible. jayce watches viktor's descent with an unblinking gaze, his heart sputtering so quickly he feels the need to have his breathing accompany. it felt like he'd build pressure in his already open chest and burst through the ribs if he didn't. propping his weight up with arm straight behind him, jayce's free fingers weave into viktor's mess of free chestnut curls to follow him down. his cock tremors before its kissed and even more when a clever, gentle tongue greets the crown of his arousal. already parted lips hang open and soundlessly as brows come together in a double arch but eyes never stray. it's been— so long since the balm of human touch has found its way to the intimate grooves of muscle he's lost to sickness, to starvation, so very long since he wanted to let anyone in to how much was lost, disfigured and changed. it's been long since that yearning only manifested as febril mirages. solid. real. viktor. ]
Viktor—
[ hushed off scarred lips, fingers pressed gently under his jaws to follow his shifts. desperately, maybe even embarrassingly, his erection weeps jayce's sanction with a single viscous bead. ]
[Lapping up that bead of precum, Viktor swallows it down. That desire to consume lingers between them both, better this way than more bloody methods. He kisses and suckles lightly at the hard length, down to the base. He wraps lips around the smooth roundness of a testicle, nosing at the root of his dick all the while. Viktor's brow remains furrowed as is so usual for him, but Jayce will see the distinct between focus and annoyance. His mind is very much captured by the act, then by Jayce's words.
He hums against Jayce's balls before separating, if not far, muttering a confession and then a challenge,]
As have I... allow me to overshadow my fantasy self.
[He needs to do better than Jayce's imagination does for him. Maybe it's impossible, maybe Jayce thinks too highly of him, but Viktor will give his all. As he always does.
His hands move to each of Jayce's thighs and he ducks himself down beneath each. The third arm on his back reaches for the ankle of Jayce's worse side. Just to support him so he's not feeling any strain. He can relax that leg fully and Viktor has him held comfortably.]
You can clamp your legs around me, Jayce, I'm sturdy enough. [Ah, to have his head squeezes between Jayce's powerful thighs, yeah, as if Viktor hasn't had a fair share of fantasies of this himself. Impossible to not imagine, over their many years working together, of lust and adoration left unspoken.
Once more, he captures Jayce's length between his lips, this time pulling him inside. The tip slips through pursed lips and scarcely grazes teeth before Viktor's tongue caresses and wraps around him, taking him back to fill his mouth,]
[ oh, fuck is murmured one too many times as jayce alternates between tipping his head back and immediately tossing it forward so he wouldn't miss this, not even for the world. jayce ravenously complies to lifting his right enough to sit that heel on viktor's shoulder, his left held steady by the third arm (and wondering what else a third arm could be doing, but perhaps he shouldn't be getting so ahead of himself— enjoy a moment so forthcoming, deserving of all corners of his attention). even his stones are prized in the syrupy enclosure of hot saliva and silky lips, making his sack ride up and contract right below the base of his cock. the shiver, just then, inner thighs a quake over the shells of viktor's ears, and the most savory of sounds— just for him. ]
I'll try not to break you before you break me.
[ they could still play with each other. it made his core crank the simmer to high. his left thigh is significantly atrophied, his right thinner, but that had been little news to viktor now— they'd bathed on day one. to everyone's cheer, there's a substantial amount of meat that cushions around viktor's tapered cheekbones when jayce gives just enough for his partner to work with his mouth as much of a treat, his smirk of dirty elation and disbelief smearing across his face and under his beard. a hand in viktor's hair tangles, draws aid to his movements, his tongue dribbling unwise whines, his hips drive up and back to accompany the heavenly heat of viktor's throat. eager, eager— he's always been so eager and now there's nothing to hold the reigns of his discretion back. ]
You're better than anything I could conjure, ha— a-ahhf—
[ every slide, suction, bob, a scrape against his molars and the inside of his cheek— rewarded with ohs, ahs and, especially, viktor, like sap oozing out of bark; sticky, sweet and rich. ]
No more breaking. I'd rather... make you come undone.
[Spoken as a promise, that distinction. He'd broken Jayce and he'd put him back together again already. This is something else. The pleasure of delicately deconstructing the man until he's just pieces, without ruining any part of him. He can be put back together, then, without worry. Viktor has the mind for that, he's clever in building up things better than than they were before. That will be what he strives for here.
His mouth takes Jayce in and savors the full taste of him. Despite everything, this is still very human and it makes Viktor so glad they're connecting this way. Letting their desires run free, after so much shutting down and pushing away of their affection. Mostly by Viktor, he just... grew so cold, in time. So distant and obsessed with their work and then with saving himself. He didn't want to make Jayce's grief more complicated. Now, it seems, they will never escape their blood deep codependency. And they would never like to.]
Mmmhhnnn- [an eloquent answer with his mouth full. Viktor hums pleasantly as Jayce grips his hair, guides him with ragged motions. The noise is so much deeper than it would be before, rumbling around Jayce's dick like a vibrator. A reminder of just how mechanical he is now, not needing to breath, having not a goddamn tickle of a gag reflex. Viktor does deliberately push Jayce to the soft interior his cheek, letting the man admit the sight of his cheeks hollowing to suck back. Bulging around the place where Jayce's dick was held by tongue and careful teeth.
Golden eyes burn to watch right back, half lidded and curious to all of Jayce's reactions and sounds,]

Date: 2025-03-25 03:12 pm (UTC)jayce's messy fingertips shave at the borders of the bandages, but otherwise decides against leaving the ugly laceration bare for such a moment. it can't be comfortable to look at. he knows it's not, for him. the few stitches that arcade had made was supposed to help, but who knew how much it's held up. he'd rather focus, for a moment, on what is teasingly magificent. ]
I'm starting to think you like them.
no subject
Date: 2025-03-25 03:38 pm (UTC)[threatening, Viktor, don't just say stuff like that. He's being good, no chewing yet.
His hands fall ever so softly over Jayce's bandaged chest, weary of what was beneath the bandages. Should they really be getting more intimate, knowing the state the man is in? Not all desires are well advised... Viktor will be careful. It feels rather sturdy beneath his palms, thumping with the beat of what was once his own heart. Now Jayce's. The more time goes by, the more suitable that becomes.]
Your heartrate is back up to normal. That's a good sign, I feel. And your skin- it's not so terribly pale. We need to keep you well fed, Jayce. Don't hesitate to ask me. Promise.
no subject
Date: 2025-03-25 04:51 pm (UTC)he is more alive now than he will ever be, going forward. fed. satisfied. powered. full. it was proven, lacking a choice to ignore it, and gods— he didn't even want to. it was too good. too fucking good to say no to, no matter the twinge of disgust still curled into a part of his brain that is dormantly human. he could cry at the thought, during, but he will swallow the bliss with no qualms.
it is not the first time jayce has made a promise either, but he is long done with breaking them. he hasn't broken his last. he will not break this one, closing his eyes and flattening the front of his forehead onto viktor's with his fingers knotting gently into chestnut locks of hair. he wouldn't make it about being filled and healthy. not after what he felt. not after it rivaled the intimate ectacy of sex itself. ]
I swear.
[ and, after a beat— jayce breaks the silence to keep his streak running. he'll be ridiculous, amplify his charm, tip his head sideways just enough to have their lips only ghostly inches away from locking, keeping a featherlight brush as he asks: ]
So . . . An erotic chewing, or—?
no subject
Date: 2025-03-25 05:08 pm (UTC)He suckles at the man's lip as he pulls away to speak again, tasting the lingering ozone of shimmer clung there,]
Is that what you want, Jayce? For me to explore your body with tongue and teeth?
no subject
Date: 2025-03-26 12:52 pm (UTC)he's so . . . glad, to be warm. for both their sakes. digits link against fabric and wedge between the cotton, the flesh of his hips and the body hair that climbs his middle, bringing jayce to prop his palms behind him and allow clear access to buttons and zippers.
that doesn't go without his words to the pointed curve of viktor's jaw, connecting to his ear, ]
Considering what I'll be doing, [ for as long as being undead lasts, but that feels like a bit of a permanent condition, ] It's only fair.
no subject
Date: 2025-03-26 03:33 pm (UTC)The can have some good, present times. Even when things aren't the best, they can take solace and joy in each other.
All those poetics to say that Viktor is taking the other man's pants off, stripping him fully naked. Smirking to do so, even, bemused and eager.]
I want you to enjoy yourself. Fairness isn't so important, so long as that is accomplished.
[Viktor doesn't even know if this strange body of his is capable of arousal in turn, so he's not counting on this being "even" in the traditional sense. He'll take his pleasure in pleasuring Jayce, in bringing him comfort and the bonding, human closeness of sex. The shape that intimacy took didn't matter to Viktor, he just wants to provide and show his love however he can. Too long has that love gone unexpressed.]
no subject
Date: 2025-03-26 04:34 pm (UTC)[ though the glint in his partner's eyes tells him it's not a point of concern for them. they're long gone from traditional, aren't they . . . and that doesn't seem like an inconvenience to jayce. whatever feels best for the both of them. if it's touching, so be it. if it's more biting, so be that, too. as long as the push and pull was mutual, so long as the pleasure was intermutual, that is all the closeness they need. as long as they merge through the barriers of what is purely physical. that is all that jayce wants as the buckles and straps of his brace come undone by his giddy fingers, and his pants and undergarments slip right off from thigh to knees, scar and ankles. ]
Fairness aside, [ with the use of his hands returned to him, jayce can finally electrify viktor's structure by ghosting the rifts of his chitin and metallic shelling with palms and fingerpads. testing where muscle would be, applying more pressure to the juts of would-be bone and kissing the corners of his mouth feather light, continuous,. ] it's something I want.
[ until he presses harder, with invite, and want. ]
no subject
Date: 2025-03-29 11:54 pm (UTC)I want that too- mphh- [his mouth is suddenly pressed against, interrupting the words. Viktor smiles into it after the little flash of surprise. Ah, yes, Jayce is very eager. Adorable, but more than that, it is very bracing to Viktor. Makes him feel secure in this, as certain of their intimacy as he was in their lasting partnership. New ground to tread, very new with their bodies so changed, but better to have this exploration now and together than never.
He kisses Jayce back, open mouthed and greedy. His tongue seeks out Jayce's own, lapping against him with warmth, hoping to taste the man himself and not just the shimmer blood on his breath. Viktor feels along his teeth, along the gap in the center and the sharp pinpoints of Jayce's prominent canines. Amused by himself, Viktor's third arm reaches to back of Jayce's head to hold him there, leaving Viktor's other two hands room to explore the man's body. He can grope along Jayce's shoulders, his absurdly attractive arms. Viktor has crawled himself into the man's lap, one leg between Jayce's, straddling one of his thighs.
Does the kiss even need to break? Neither of them need air, anymore. The limitation no longer exists. They can just indulge and indulge,]
no subject
Date: 2025-03-31 03:35 pm (UTC)it's keeping up with the kissing, simultaneously, that's beginning to wear for him, containing a deep tremor as he seems to withdraw his lips with squeezing fingers rising up the slope of viktor's torso— it's not because his lips were kiss bruised, god he could care less and keep going. he wants to, but . . .
his brain has rewired. he's getting incredibly aroused, their legs chafe and a needy little rock of his hips forward and back spurs more pleasure, and pleasure spurs more want, and want makes him think to bite to experience that more again, and more on top of the physical satisfaction.
he doesn't need it— that'd be gluttony. but fuck does jayce find himself wanting it like another hit of an incredible drug. the next attempt at kissing him, jayce hovers lip to lip and steers his face sideways, his hands sliding below the small of his back. he doesn't want to give the idea that he wishes to stop when he doesn't, but— he'd feel much better with permission (or lack thereof, to which he'll force himself to listen). ]
I'll bite you again like that, Vik.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-02 03:29 pm (UTC)If we move to the bath, perhaps. Are you already feeling weak? [... no, he's getting overly concerned, instead fussing!]
Ground rule, moving forward. No spilling of blood in our bed. We'll never manage to clean it out...
no subject
Date: 2025-04-02 03:59 pm (UTC)greedy. was he always this greedy? jayce has always hit things like nails to a hammerhead when he wanted them. was the spike just a reflection of his fractured, untamed psyche or was there more to his monstrous changes? it takes a grind of his teeth to fall back on what he knows: science. it stays the hand of answering too oddly, where he'd perhaps regret it: ]
I'm not, [ weak. he still sounds miffed. fuck, ] I just— had the urge. Instinctual, [ with the flicking of his wrist, he's trying to figure out how to word it in a way he would overanalyse late. ] the feeling is . . . Similar, when compared to arousal.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-02 10:19 pm (UTC)Your wires have gotten crossed.
[And whose fault is that-?]
I understand. It is... it has become much the same for me. Instinct, arousal, desire, hunger. All feel like the same thing, with far less distinction than before.
[he nudges his forehead to Jayce's, sighing beneath his breath. This is all so much more fraught than Viktor cares for, but then again, he accepts that to be with Jayce. They're both a mess,]
no subject
Date: 2025-04-03 04:38 am (UTC)I— want to try navigating. [ it's better than trying to unraveling that package. it's better than ruining the mood and burst the chances of all this pent up energy, years in closet because they simply couldn't permit themselves to do anything beforehand. that's simply another frustrating reminder of the time they lost, spread between jayce's political progress and viktor's goodbye. still left a sour taste to hayce's memory. there is a visceral part of jayce that needs, craves this. craves the proximity and the way this made and would continue to make him feel whole. ] Please.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-06 01:09 am (UTC)I want to give my everything to you, Jayce. [he's already given his heart, his blood, what more could he provide? Viktor will give and give, until all parts of him are mere replicas. It is a terrifying urge, self destructive and self replicating.
His whispered tone turns to something hot blooded,]
Allow me to sate your desires another way. My mouth upon you, this time... softly so.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-06 01:28 am (UTC)his core reacts like colliding atoms, generating a heat that tingles up his throat and flushes his face hot with the blood he's consumed. even to that, he's too weak. he folds— he can't say no. ]
Please.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-06 04:26 am (UTC)Relax, Jayce... I will treat you to some long overdue tenderness.
[He slowly parts from Jayce's hold, but it's only to rearrange so many spindly limbs further down. Viktor kisses Jayce's navel next. A few adoring, peppered kisses, which trail further along, towards his stiff cock. Landing on it, soon enough, because teasing Jayce any more feels cruel and unneeded. No, no, let the man have what is promised to him.
Viktor's plush lips and the hot air filtered through his strange, new body, exhaled upon him only because Viktor willed himself to. His tongue laps out and drags across the head, flashing wide and sunken eyes upward for approval,]
no subject
Date: 2025-04-06 02:55 pm (UTC)Viktor—
[ hushed off scarred lips, fingers pressed gently under his jaws to follow his shifts. desperately, maybe even embarrassingly, his erection weeps jayce's sanction with a single viscous bead. ]
I've— I've only imagined this . . .
no subject
Date: 2025-04-06 05:26 pm (UTC)He hums against Jayce's balls before separating, if not far, muttering a confession and then a challenge,]
As have I... allow me to overshadow my fantasy self.
[He needs to do better than Jayce's imagination does for him. Maybe it's impossible, maybe Jayce thinks too highly of him, but Viktor will give his all. As he always does.
His hands move to each of Jayce's thighs and he ducks himself down beneath each. The third arm on his back reaches for the ankle of Jayce's worse side. Just to support him so he's not feeling any strain. He can relax that leg fully and Viktor has him held comfortably.]
You can clamp your legs around me, Jayce, I'm sturdy enough. [Ah, to have his head squeezes between Jayce's powerful thighs, yeah, as if Viktor hasn't had a fair share of fantasies of this himself. Impossible to not imagine, over their many years working together, of lust and adoration left unspoken.
Once more, he captures Jayce's length between his lips, this time pulling him inside. The tip slips through pursed lips and scarcely grazes teeth before Viktor's tongue caresses and wraps around him, taking him back to fill his mouth,]
no subject
Date: 2025-04-07 11:03 pm (UTC)I'll try not to break you before you break me.
[ they could still play with each other. it made his core crank the simmer to high. his left thigh is significantly atrophied, his right thinner, but that had been little news to viktor now— they'd bathed on day one. to everyone's cheer, there's a substantial amount of meat that cushions around viktor's tapered cheekbones when jayce gives just enough for his partner to work with his mouth as much of a treat, his smirk of dirty elation and disbelief smearing across his face and under his beard. a hand in viktor's hair tangles, draws aid to his movements, his tongue dribbling unwise whines, his hips drive up and back to accompany the heavenly heat of viktor's throat. eager, eager— he's always been so eager and now there's nothing to hold the reigns of his discretion back. ]
You're better than anything I could conjure, ha— a-ahhf—
[ every slide, suction, bob, a scrape against his molars and the inside of his cheek— rewarded with ohs, ahs and, especially, viktor, like sap oozing out of bark; sticky, sweet and rich. ]
no subject
Date: 2025-04-08 03:15 am (UTC)[Spoken as a promise, that distinction. He'd broken Jayce and he'd put him back together again already. This is something else. The pleasure of delicately deconstructing the man until he's just pieces, without ruining any part of him. He can be put back together, then, without worry. Viktor has the mind for that, he's clever in building up things better than than they were before. That will be what he strives for here.
His mouth takes Jayce in and savors the full taste of him. Despite everything, this is still very human and it makes Viktor so glad they're connecting this way. Letting their desires run free, after so much shutting down and pushing away of their affection. Mostly by Viktor, he just... grew so cold, in time. So distant and obsessed with their work and then with saving himself. He didn't want to make Jayce's grief more complicated. Now, it seems, they will never escape their blood deep codependency. And they would never like to.]
Mmmhhnnn- [an eloquent answer with his mouth full. Viktor hums pleasantly as Jayce grips his hair, guides him with ragged motions. The noise is so much deeper than it would be before, rumbling around Jayce's dick like a vibrator. A reminder of just how mechanical he is now, not needing to breath, having not a goddamn tickle of a gag reflex. Viktor does deliberately push Jayce to the soft interior his cheek, letting the man admit the sight of his cheeks hollowing to suck back. Bulging around the place where Jayce's dick was held by tongue and careful teeth.
Golden eyes burn to watch right back, half lidded and curious to all of Jayce's reactions and sounds,]
