Christmas Decorations [Open for Kisses, Journal, and Action]

[wishmadeinfire]

[If there was one thing Ashura did love about this season, it was the chance to decorate. Usually he had servants, in his own world, that made such changes according to the seasons and celebrations, but he found an odd pleasure in take the time to set little things up around their suite and door. Not only did it give him something to do but it was

[he is actually coming up to make a house call today! and he may or may not have some chocolate in hand. (a pretty girl conned him into a huge bar of chocolate BUT SHE WAS SO CUTE OKAY he couldn't resist......)]

Cute.

[echivoc]

[wonderful, Cross has no interest in the bedroom anyway. the suddenly lit fire is nothing surprising to the General, who smirks as he sets a hand on a chair.]

I thought you were going to show me what wine goes best with these chocolates.

[wishmadeinfire]

[He cast the other a look.]

There is a good red and a good white. But I prefer red over all.

[He goes to a small cabinet and opens it, reaching in and withdrawing a blue glass bottle filled with liquid. He takes two cups and pours the rich red liquid - so red it was almost purple.]

Try this with the dark chocolate ~

[He beams and pops one of the chocolates in his mouth and after swallowing sips his wine, letting the to flavors mix.]

[echivoc]

Then red it shall be.

[he takes the cup and lifts it in thanks, before taking one of the dark chocolates and following suit. chocolate, then wine. give him a moment......]

Interesting. [another sip of wine] Excellent wine, by the way.

[wishmadeinfire]

[The elf-like king smiles, his lips touched with the red a bit, a stark color on his pale face, but beautiful.]

Ah, the challenges of being a king - one gets used to the best in life.

[echivoc]

[maybe there is a sugarplum troll faerie around, because Cross notices and thinks the same thing. he totally finds the thought normal and nothing out of the blue.]

But then you're straddled to your land and you can hardly move about without telling someone about it.

[wishmadeinfire]

[He gives Cross a bit of a look, shaking his head slightly in amusement before picking up a chocolate dusted with sugar. He pops it into his mouth and sighs happily as the taste rolls over his tongue. He sips his wine, staining his lips further and then quickly flicks a pink tongue across the tips of manicured fingers to get the last of the sugar.]

I enjoy sharing my culture. Is that so wrong?

1/2

[echivoc]

Not at all. [what the hell do they say about sugarplum faeries and heads? or is it vision? Cross could give no fucks right now, man. he eats another chocolate, sips some more wine, all the while watching the man across for him. huh, no wonder Felix is with him. it isn't like Ashura is a nobody - he's definitely a somebody.]

[echivoc]

[oh, eff it all.

Cross puts the cup of wine down before he closes the distance between Ashura and himself. he takes the king's chin in his hand as he moves to kiss him on the lips. he tastes the wine and dark chocolate on his lips that he was just savoring moments before, and it seems so natural for Ashura.]

[wishmadeinfire]

[Well, this was a surprise. Ashura knew for a fact Cross had no interest in men - at least, not sexually. Yes that prodded each other now and then, but he had never taken it seriously (though when he was a woman.... ah well). The point was this was unexpected... but definitely not welcome.

He found himself melting into the kiss, his cup dropping and arms winding around his shoulders, drawing him in closer, pressing to him as he deepened the kiss. His tongue scraped against Cross's teeth, begging entrance, fingers tangling in red hair.]

[echivoc]

[damnit, eff those damn faeries.

well, that is what Cross would be thinking if he was not enchanted by them at the moment, and too busy kissing Ashura.

he gives the other man the entrance he wants, his other hand resting on the back of Ashura's neck as the kiss deepens. he tastes the wine even more now, and that strong cocoa of the dark chocolate left behind.]

[wishmadeinfire]

[It should honestly be criminal how good the other tastes - the wine, the chocolate, something sharper than that, a sharper alcohol, but it was not unpleasant. Heavens no, it was... well, delicious.

He pressed flush to the other man, cheeks pink as the kiss deepens. He explores the other without reserve, using his years of experience and newer tricks taught to him by Felix, including a few teasing nips to Cross's lower lip with his teeth.]

[lord_wizard]

[Speaking of Felix, guess who is walking in just now. And what he sees, well...

Felix has never ready had an opportunity to be jealous. Powers knew people usually knew what was his and didn't ever try anything, so it's a strange feeling that he's getting right now. On other hand...it's kinda hot to watch Ashura kiss someone else. He's not really sure what he thinks about to that other person being Cross, though.

He clears his throat as he crosses the room]

Well, isn't this a surprise.

[echivoc]

[man, the last Christmas Ashura and Cross had A Moment, it was pretty good. now? this is pretty fantastic in Cross's opinion.

of course, his opinion is changing since that faerie dust is disappearing. he realizes who he is kissing as soon as he hears Felix's voice. he has nothing against Ashura, but he sure is breaking that kiss now.]

......

Damn castle.

[wishmadeinfire]

[Ashura blinks when they part, hearing Felix's voice and his cheeks go red. He knows it is hardly their fault because it was done to them by the dust, but he still felt a bit guilty because the dust had not been what made that kiss good. And it had been good. Fantastic even. If Cross were not uninterested in men and Ashura not currently betrothed, well... there was a bedroom...

He turns to look at Felix, then back at Cross, really not wanting a fight, so he does the next best thing. He picks up the box of chocolates, smiles and offers it out to his fiance.]

Care for a chocolate, Felix?

[lord_wizard]

[Felix isn't going to blame anybody. He's had more than his fair share of these encounters - some a little more heated than others.

Still, he's privately a little triumphant that he's caught Cross a little flat-footed, so he can't help but take advantage of that.

He'll smile, though it's sort of a hard, sly expression as he steps closer to Ashura]

I would love one...

[Instead of taking it out of his hand however, he's just going to bend down and eat it right out of Ashura's hand, making a rather indulgent moaning noise and licking his lover's fingers as he pulls away]
