[ He DOES make a little sound at that nip. ]

You aint-

[ Hang on, putting a thumb under Yingxing's chin and tilting his head up further. ]

Dude. What did you DO?

[He doesn't whine at his head being tilted up like that, but it's a close thing.]

What do you mean, what I did? [His hands come up to press against Cade's abs, tracing the outline of muscle there, almost - nervously.] I... Velveteen and I -

[ There's a moment of processing where a swirl of mixed feelings just sort of settles. Doesn't matter, he's in CADE'S lap right now. He lets go and strokes down beside the bandage. ]

Well, guess I don't gotta throttle nobody then...

How sharp IS he that you look like a chew toy? You okay?

[ So THAT'S why Vee smelled like Lithium's cologne... ]

He has fangs.

[Unfortunately Lithium doesn't own cologne. What he's smelling is probably Graey's attempt to impart some sort of sophistication into Lithium's life, and Lithium only acquiring said sophistication by sheer proximity.

Yingxing stills. He places his hands on Cade's shoulders, and leans in close, to press the two of them together, hip to chest, burying his face in the crook of Cade's neck. Clingy.]

He's not you, okay? I know you and him, there's something there, but he's not me, either, so I still have you. You still have me.

[ It's all he wants. Solid, and there and against him and this is fine, all of it's fine.

Just, you know... wants to hear it.

As his palm runs up and down Yingxing's back, he buries his face in the other man's hair. ]

It's something else, yeah. This is- this is different. For you too, right?

[There's a pause.]

...I know your ring size.

You do??

[ WHY WOULD HE-

NO THERE'S ONLY ONE REASON WHY

HOLY SHIT

HOOOLLLYYY SHIT

Wait-]

How did you GET that?

You know that one drawer in my kitchen that didn't have a knob because it broke off? And you eventually could pull it open by hooking your finger in the hole?

[Mumbled into his shoulder. That was- the entire thing was premeditated, but only in a way that Yingxing knew how.]

[ what omg ]

[ That. WAS POSSIBLE the most Lithium way of getting it ever. AND. Shit that was a YEAR AGO??

His arms curl around Yingxing.]

...

So, you know how I'd cleared out that whole studio area in my place. I was thinkin' it might be a good workshop.

If you ever wanted to--

Yes.

[CUTTING HIM OFF??? a hand slides up over Cade's nape, fingers buried into his hair, tugging a little.]

Shit. I want off this boat.

[ HE SAID YES CADE COULD DIE OF HAPPINESS RIGHT NOW BUT THEN IT WOULD END AND THAT'S NOT ALLOWED

Oh, his eyes close and head tilts back at that pull.]

Right? Shit. SHIT, it's been too long probably not in swimming distance or I'd give it a shot...

[He laughs, then, leaning in to drop a kiss on his nose, before tilting his head to bite at his lower lip.]

We have the rest of our lives, I guess.

[He pauses, a little nervously.]

Right?

[ That's it. That's what it was like with Yingxing. That soft, adorable affection and then the sting and they both light up his heart and flushes his skin and. He just runs his hands over the back of the man pressed up against him flush. ]

Yeah. Yeah, I want that. You've got it, all the rest of my life.

Now we just gotta figure out livin' forever.

[That's such a romantic, far-fetched concept, but:]

If I have this back pain forever, no thanks. [He lowers his hand to Cade's jaw, thumbing his stubble.] I want to grow old with you. Cats and all.

[ If he looks about to cry at that, it's because he is. His voice is that happy kind of choked up even as he's trying to play it cool. ]

You could help me get m'walker on the treadmill an' everything.

You'd be bench pressing me through the arthri--

[Is he about to cry? Don't do that because Yingxing's eyes start to burn too and okay he frantically cups Cade's face.]

I'll. I'll make us rings here. No takebacks.

[ He's BLINKING HARD IT'S A NEAR THING. ]

Dude. DUDE. I'll wear anything ya make. I aint takin' it off.

[ He hopes its time to kiss him because that's what he's doing. A bit like devouring him, actually. ]

[Why is he doing this Yingxing can't catastrophize with his brain cells melting? Rude???

And while he'd kissed other people who liked to bite, be rough - there's nobody else who had the combination of fang and hunger and Brocade, and Yingxing whimpers into his mouth.]

Wait. W- the door. Is it locked. I don't remember--

[ There's a moment where he breaks, and clearly looks at the WIDE OPEN DOOR, and the growl he lets out shudders through his bones. There's a MOMENT, where he WANTs to be like, let the whole ship hear. Let them see. And he throws all of that sentiment into the next kiss- hair fisted at the base of Yingxing's neck and a squeezing a handful of his ass- ]

[ And then lets go with a whine, hands sliding to rest on the floor. He goes to drop his head against the other man's neck but there's that bandage and-]

Y'should probably be the one t'close it or who the hell knows where I'll end up.

Actually... that reminds me some...

[He slides off Cade's lap - grinding against him deliberately as he does, because he's there - stumbles a little, still dazed from that last kiss, and totters off to actually close the door. And lock it.]

Reminds you of...?

[Coming back, now, and he's shucking his shirt off, too; there's more scratches, courtesy of one (1) dragon.]

[ Hang on, his eyes are just gonna take a lazy journey from collarbone down to beltline. But you know, a man cut like that, you can't just go STRAIGHT DOWN, there's switchbacks you gotta travel. Scenery to appreciate.

He swallows hard. ]

I ah.. was gonna ask how yer doing. [ His dick is doing the can-can to the songline of "LET IT GO AND GET LAID" but bro this would make the worst pillow talk he reasons back. ]

I heard some about the marbles and- wanted to make sure yer okay.
