but, he does pull up tobari with ease. he even dusts him off, even if there probably is not even a speck of dust in this place. he only stops mid-dusting to give tobari a looK. ]
You really know how to give someone mixed emotions...
[ but with that said, he's going back in for a real hug this time. he's ready to rub his face in tobari's chest like an oversized cat... ]
[ given the way that rafayel rapidly switches between being cute as hell and ragebaiting the everyloving shit out of tobari!!!!!
but he'll accept it easily, even with the nuzzling.... damn he loves cats.... this oversized cat is also sooooooo cute. he wraps his arms around rafayel and lets his fingers card through his hair affectionately, even as he leans down to press a kiss to the tip of his ear ]
Can we at least go to the couch?
[ or find a place to lay down and cuddle.... rafayel really is going to get so spoiled since tobari took a day off and can just focus on him, damn ]
[ he really is being so spoiled already... this shouldn't be allowed
as bold as rafayel was in showing his affection, the small kiss still makes his cheeks a little warm. he looks up at tobari from his chest, and he debates being stubborn for a few more seconds, but he does end up gently pushing tobari towards the couch. his arms still remain glued to him, even if they have to robotically make their way towards it. ]
One trip to the couch coming right up. If you're tired, should I carry you?
[ the way tobari is so resistent to being spoiled and doesn’t have a romantic bone in his body. hilarious. but tobari will just allow for their awkward little waddle over to the couch, glancing over his shoulder to make sure they don’t slip again…
but once the back of his knees make contact, he lets them both ease down onto the couch in a cuddly heap ]
[ while rafayel expects that from tobari, he can’t help but be a little disappointed he doesn’t get to carry him boldly. where is the romance???? where is the yumes cancelling me for having tobari be carried
but, he spares him the struggle of trying— just for today, he decides he will be the good, earnest boy he always claims to be.
he easily slips in, leaning his head on tobari’s chest as he lowers himself a little, sinking into the couch and his boyfriend. ] Well, I am pretty sweaty. But, I don’t want to leave without making our cuddle quota. Just so you know, the manager thinks you’re slacking lately.
[ not the being cancelled.... they really would flail around so stupidly if anyone tried to pick up tobari against his will
they get to avoid that today! instead, tobari will recline back against the couch cushions and shift so that they fit against each other as comfortably as possible—at least this is another form of muscle memory. he huffs out a breath, amused even as his fingers idly play with rafayel's hair, tracing through the soft waves with his fingers ]
I've been caught underperforming at my main responsibility? Damn. [ his 24/7 appointment of being rafayel's boyfriend ] Guess I'll have to put in more hours.
[ said as he lets his fingers trace down the curve of rafayel's ear, under his jaw, and then guides his face up just enough for tobari to leave light kisses all over his face—at any patch of skin he can reach ]
[ HE WOULD BE SOOO CUTE CARRIED!!!!! i stand by this
it's nice to be able to take it easy. but, even nicer to see his boyfriend looking so relaxed. his quiet, gentle breathing paired with the steady beat of his heart. reflexively, he places a hand flat against his chest so he can focus in on the sensation, counting his heartbeats.
though, he is quickly distracted by tobari going along with his bit. ] Yeah, or else you won't get that raise your were promised. [ he inhales softly, as he feels tobari pepper kisses all over his face, and he pulls away just slightly. ]
It's my turn. [ now it's time to straddle him... platonically. ]
[ AWEFLKJAWEFLKJ one day raf can carry him... we can contrive a situation... implants glass lungs in tobari again
and you can use the word platonically but i don't know if it is fitting in this situation
nonetheless, tobari's hands drift to rafayel's waist just to help steady him as he moves, raising a brow slowly. almost in challenge. he is not sure what rafayel is up to but he will allow it... ]
he finds his balance easily with the help. without any further pretense he wraps his arms around tobari's shoulders, leaning in to give him a kiss on his neck, then the bottom of his chin, before he then places a gentle kiss right on his lips. his hands come up to hold both of tobari's cheeks as he kisses him several more times on the lips before pulling back, satisfied. ]
but wow... so many kiss. tobari supposes he's not entirely surprised by it, even though he thought that he was supposed to be the one spoiling raf... but it's also separately cute that rafayel feels like he wants to spoil him back too. his expression softens as he leans into each kiss and even when rafayel pulls back, tobari will turn his head to affectionately press his face into rafayel's palm not unlike a cat asking for more pets... ]
I think I know you best... but I can still end up surprised by your generosity. Wasn't I supposed to be doting on you?
when tobari leans into his touch, he gently rubs his thumb on the side of his face. ] Change of plans. If you're not flexible, you won't be popular anymore. But, you probably know that. [ a hidden complaint. he knows his boyfriend is popular, inserts this into the narrative like itehari. but, it's too bad since he already belongs to him. (toxic) he kisses him on the lips again, but this time to silently claim him.
that said there's a little raise of his brow at the mention of being popular? not you just forcing this on him again... even if he wouldn't deny it! like an asshole! (tsuyukusa voice) these types of guys are so annoying
instead he'll just lean into that next kiss that comes, tilting his head to deepen it since rafayel already said something so strange...
when he pulls back, he still presses a kiss against the corner of his mouth ]
Who cares about being popular... I'm already yours, aren't I? So the only thing that matters if you like how I act or not.
[ the fact that he doesn't even deny it... it really is hateful. at least to rafayel who is already jealous of a situation he's entirely brought to light all on his own. while i, bijou, still defends tobari...
he didn't expect him to deepen the kiss and sudden reciprocation already makes him feel a little heady. he pretend to listen to him for a second before he hungrily goes in for another kiss, this time pressing his body a little closer and his finger brushing alongside his neck. he rests it right where his pulse is, and he only stops to smile against his lips. ]
... Or maybe you can try acting in the way I like?
[ it's easy because he likes everything tobari does so... ]
[ maybe he's not popular... imagine if tobari accepted being popular when he isn't actually, that'd be way more embarrassing
but also... what is this supposed to mean... tobari's eyes narrow just a little, but he seems more amused than anything else. he's content to accept the kiss that comes and doesn't flinch at all even when rafayel lets his fingers trace against such a vulnerable place. close as they are, he leans in those scant centimeters nearer even as his voice drops to something softer ]
And what way would that be?
[ jk he doesn't actually want to hear rafayel's ridiculous list of demands so he's actually going to lean in to press kisses to his mouth again just once, twice, thrice more. a the same time, his own hand that was resting at rafayel's waist will slip beneath the hem of his shirt at the back, idly tracing up the line of his spine since he's so close... and yet tobari wants him that much closer ]
[ HELP that would be hilarious, but just untrue. look at him
admittedly, he really didn't have such a list just seconds prior. but the second tobari speaks, he can't help but takes those words as a challenge. his brain already races to concoct several ridiculous desires. unfortunately, as he's already moving his mouth to speak he gets caught in that first kiss, then the second. he adjust his hands to travel down tobari's chest. it's still chaste in theory, if just because he's only touching him over his clothes, compared to that...
he hisses just slightly at feeling tobari's hands along his back. ] I had a whole list prepared for you. You don't want to hear it? [ he kisses tobari back, and it borders on incessant with the way he refuses to lose to him. ]
i really don't know why tobari gives rafayel the opening to come up with a list of demands but this is how he's trying to save himself... what happens when you try to kiss your already silly boyfriend to the point of distraction? time to find out. still, he's about to laugh and there's still some amusement in his voice as he speaks against rafayel's mouth between kisses, as if he can't stand to be separated— ] Little distracted.
[ whose fault is this?
especially since tobari's other hand is just going to slip beneath the front of rafayel's shirt now, fingers splayed to touch as much bare skin as he can as he lets the fabric of the shirt catch against his wrists as his hand drifts upward... time to get more distracted apparently ]
this is tobari's doing. he may tame on occasion, but he also enables.
perhaps, this is why rafayel's spoiled attitude has showed zero to no signs of improvement. case in point, he's already trying to catch tobari's words with a nip to his lower lip. as much as enjoys hearing the low timbre of tobari's voice between kisses, he can't fight against his desire for competition. ]
Sounds like a you problem. [ lol, he says like he also isn't entirely absorbed in this. he thinks he has to escalate, and so he's already reaching to place his thumbs in the gap of where he can unzip him. he's mostly just teasing... and he shifts his body a little, just enough so he can slide off his lap.
rafayel loves being manhandled. he is thriving, so no one save him. he tries to control his expression, but the way the corner of his lips turn up just slightly is probably evidence enough that this is all a careful act. even the way he tries to pull back again. ]
Were they? Must be all in your head. Looks like your body is just really sensitive... I wonder who made you that way. [ he's so cringey, but so confident with it. contradictory to this, he's already leaning in to blow in tobari's ear. ]
tobari huffs out a breath at that, disbelieving as once again his annoying boyfriend makes even just making out into a whole endeavor. when raf blows in his ear, he just turns his head enough to catch raf’s mouth with his own. his arms circle around him again, pulling rafayel back into his lap to eliminate any of that half-attempted distance ]
I wonder who… Then should we compare? Your touch to mine.
[ said even as he’s claiming another kiss after, biting meanly at rafayel’s bottom lip to scold him. in the meantime, tobari’s hands return back to their earlier task, fingertips trailing light, teaching touches against rafayel’s skin as tobari tries to ease his shirt off of him ]
[ as much as he might have, theoretically, been fishing for this response, he still makes a sound as he's caught in surprise by the sudden kiss. he's easily pulled back on his lap, and he gives a slight huff as he also presses his lips back up against him, pouting slightly as he feels teeth against his lips.
he can't help but let out a quiet, subdued sound of pleasure, even as he's doing his best to hold back. he can't seem too eager. that said, he's already helping tobari to shed his shirt off, and he now gestures to his. fair is fair... ]
You're being so pushy. Weren't you saying we should cut down?
[ did he say that... maybe not, he probably just nagged rafayel about getting more rest like the hypocrite he is. but, same thing. ]
[ okay to rafayel’s credit, tobari does need to take a second to think about if he said that? did he? next thing to consider is if he was serious or just fucking around because rafayel was being annoying
well it matters less now because the little sounds that rafayel makes are way more convincing when it comes to continuing. does tobari help take his own shirt off… no… no he doesn’t… in fact he’s just going to gently thread his fingers through rafayel’s hair before flipping their positions on the couch so tobari is on top ]
Then we can cut down if you really want. After this.
[ he has a feeling rafayel does not in fact want that
does this have to fade to black again. it might. can they just go enjoy the hot springs now ]
[ HELP!!! his sudden awareness like ... could i have actually said that?
the touch to his hair, sadly, does get him to drop his guard in seconds. he eases into the touch, and so... he whines that much more when tobari flips him onto his back? ] And now you're being so bold. You must really want me.
[ why does he look happy for all the whining and posturing he was doing just seconds prior? that said, he wraps his arms around tobari and pulls him closer to his body.
i guess it does have to fade to black again... WHY ARE THEY LIKE THIS!!!!
but, the thought on rafayel's mind as soon as they're done is annoying, as he's already grabbing onto tobari's arm, and suddenly: ]
