for Matt

Two flights up and turn left; halfway down the hall is room 122. Rache unlocks the door and holds it open.

The furnishings inside are simple--bed, nightstand, and dresser. There's an armchair with a footstool near the window, books heaped on the floor beside it. Some of them should be familiar; the atlas with the countries of the multiverse, and the Complete Shakespeare.

"After you."

Matt enters prepared to be charmed, and is.

(He's a longtime bookworm, albeit not in the traditional sense. He can dig it.)

"Ah," he says, of the Shakespeare.

"Did you ever get to the end of Julius Caesar?"

Matt smiles, turning back to him.

And crossing to him. And insinuating himself in such a way as to be able to kiss his jaw without disrupting the Guinness.

(He has a spell going, but if it wears out while they're together he won't exactly cry about it.)

Conversational, "But it is about him, even after he dies."

Matt returns the kiss, mouth opening slightly-- but he leans back out of it to allow Rache another drink.

And to add, "I don't know ... Brutus wasn't the one bestriding the narrow world like a colossus, as far as I recall."

Matt makes a small, pleasant noise into his mouth.

(He also tries to swipe his drink for a sip when they break apart.)

Were it not for the fact that Matt is so very used to drinking, and additionally so very used to being compromised, the confluence of the two might have caused him to sputter and choke on Rache's beer.

As things stand, he's all right but highly distracted.


He slides his free arm around Rache's waist and pulls himself close, keeping his Guinness-occupied arm clear.

Matt's slumming it in a t-shirt today, and he can feel the collar shifting and knows it doesn't have much give.

He knows it'll have to come off, but he's all right taking his time. This Guinness is really good.




Also really good: Rache's mouth.


"Mmm ... did you want to finish this?"

[identity profile] tantric-slacker.livejournal.com 2011-08-30 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
He smiles, edging on a grin.

And tries to gulp down the last of the beer before Rache can do anything else nefarious.

In fact, Matt finds he has ample time upon finishing the Guinness to pause, and swallow, and look at Rache.

And look at the glass.

And look at the nightstand.





And ultimately drop the glass as gently as possible onto the ground-- though gravity is more or less an equal-opportunity force of nature, and so it makes an unseemly noise.

"It ... was ... less attractive than you?"

Especially with all the beer gone.

For the win!

Matt is really incredibly happy with kisses. His tongue may help to convey some of this.

Of course, Rache is dangerous.

He's dangerous in ways he might not want to cop to, but it's a fact he's dangerous, and it's an additional fact that Matt has an ever-lengthening history of making dubious sex-partner-related decisions.

He remembers thinking this is me. He's still not sure if he was wrong.


All of this is to say that he tilts his head and reaches for Rache's shoulder, swaying deeper into their kiss.

Matt draws in a quick, very deep breath, as if he's preparing to hold his breath underwater.

And laughs, faint and like a gasp. By now, one of his hands is at Rache's arm and the other one is poised at the back of his neck. His fingers brush curiously at the ends of Rache's hair. (Or beginnings, he supposes. Now is not the time to get semantic.)

Matt smiles, letting his fingers drift. They stroke over Rache's hair, then dig in deeper in a gentle massage.

"Mmm," Matt agrees pleasantly, without stopping. The proximity of their faces makes him feel (all supernatural misgivings aside) warm, and very close.

Matt presses in a little more ... insistently, perhaps. His lips begin to travel along the line of Rache's neck, parting slightly.

Forget the douchebag sorcerers and sleepless nights. This is worth it every time.

Matt makes a contented sound somewhere between a mumble and a hum, and kisses him again in the same spot.

[identity profile] tantric-slacker.livejournal.com 2011-10-03 06:26 am (UTC)(link)
The sensation gives Matt a pleasant shiver that makes him consider how occasionally lame it is to wear clothes.

He murmurs again against Rache's neck; the hand at his neck drifts down towards his shoulders, and the one around Rache's waist beginning to slide sneakily in search of his shirt hem.

Matt laughs, soft and low and a bit squirmy himself, and-- aha.

He finds the skin under the fabric and runs his hand up Rache's side, tilting his head in search of a spot on Rache's neck he hasn't kissed.

Matt may be wondering the same thing.

This may explain why now he's going for his buttons.

"... Hold on," Matt says against his neck.


His fingers fumble, pause, and slip outside the shirt.

Buttons 1
Matt 0

"Nnnno," Matt decides after a moment, stepping back far enough from Rache that his fingers don't have to fumble idiotically.

Buttons 1

"Got it."

His hands slide up Rache's chest, shifting the fabric aside.

He smiles somewhat wryly at Rache.
