When: Afternoon of Friday, August 24th.
Where: Vampire Twin's duplex.
Who: Kamui and Subaru

Summary: They hadn't eaten in a long time, now... and Subaru was feeling impatient, for once.

Subaru had taken to perusing through the helpful closet in the house he and his brother were living in. He wasn't sure what he was expecting to find, but he hoped it ( Read more... )

There was a sudden sound of a door slamming and several locks clicking into place, followed by a small bout of growling and swearing; a sure sign Kamui was not only home, but has escaped his new "friend". About damned time, but... he was sure she'd be back for him soon. Probably with the intentions of gaining more free food.

"Subaru..." he whispered as he entered the room with Subaru, resting his head gently against his shoulder as greeting. "What are you...?" His gaze followed Subaru's obvious actions, moving away just a little to look through the closet himself. The vampire did know a bit of the stuff that was in there, enough to know what he was going to wear, but... well, no way was Subaru wearing the same type of clothes he was going to.

Subaru glanced at his shoulder as Kamui's head touched it, smiling gently as his brother looked through the closet.

"I was just contemplating possible camouflage, that's all..." He said, surveying the choices again. None looked too appealing, but he supposed that was part of the catch...

"Mn." He shifted through, trying to find something for his twin. "I don't think it will be too hard to fit in. Everyone dresses differently here..." Though, when in a world that had clubs, he noticed most tended to dress in some sort of special way when frequenting such a place; in designs they surely thought to be sexually appealing. Not that they always were, but...

"What about this?" He held up a simple, sleek crimson button-up shirt, paired with some black slacks. Not exactly something that would show off his body and make females flock to his twin, which was exactly the point.

Subaru tilted his head to the side a little, the simple outfit somehow striking his appeal- it didn't stray too far from what he was used to wearing, but it looked much lighter, and as though it would fit in with 'normal' people in this world...

"Then what about you, Kamui?" Subaru asked, taking the hangar from his twin and stepping back to give Kamui some room to find an outfit, while he pulled off his own heavy layers and began to change.

"Yeah..." At least that was a little comfort; a good connection. For some reason, it felt as if he needed to open up their bond again after being separated for so long, even if it was only a short time given how slowly they aged.

But... there was one more thing...

"Subaru... the kisses, the flirting tonight... you were just playing along with the game, right?" This time when he pulled back a bit to look at him, his eyes reflected entirely innocent confusion. Subaru really had acted a little too well...

Subaru stared back at Kamui with a strange expression- he wasn't sure if he felt confused or relieved or possibly even upset as his brother asked. For some reason, he knew that the answer was supposed to be 'yes'... but...

He wasn't sure if that would be an honest answer... or... if it was how he wanted to answer...

"...I..." Subaru said, but he didn't finish, still thinking.

There it had been, again- Kamui had completely sidestepped what Subaru had been trying to say... was he just being stubborn? Or was he deliberately misinterpreting it because that's what he wanted it to mean? Or was Kamui, God forbid, having a rare moment of being thick-headed?

"I don't know..." Subaru looked away, not able to meet his twin's eyes as he whispered it.

A new gust of wind came up and blew the hat- which had somehow miraculously stayed on his head- off and away. He didn't notice.

Oh, Kamui got that Subaru had been getting frustrated with him not thinking of himself; for being too focused on his twin. He got that very well, which was why...

Why he decided to try something he wanted to do, had wanted to do since they were younger teenagers, even though it was risky and could fuck things up entirely. Or would fuck things up entirely, he was sure.

"Subaru..." Carefully, he worked a hand into Subaru's hair, cupping the back of his head lightly before he... kissed him. Nothing deep, but not exactly innocent or brotherly, either. "I'm sorry," he broke it, turning and leaning against a tree so he didn't see the surely bad reaction.

Subaru had been expecting something of this nature- perhaps not this at this precise moment- but he'd figured out right quick that this had been the root of Kamui's actions that night... or, indeed, for his whole life... His little brother's impassioned speech had made everything as plain as day.

So why wasn't he GETTING it?

With a sigh- not a disappointed or angry sigh, but a 'oh, my darling little brother' exasperation- Subaru put his arms around his twin from behind.

"Kamui..." He whispered his brother's name, reverently, "Let's go home... We're both tired... and that's causing some problems in our communication. Tomorrow, when we can both think clear enough to understand the other clearly, we'll finish this conversation." Subaru's arms tightened, "I'll stay with you, if you want- to keep the nightmares away..." He added, teasing, but smiling as warmly as he could possibly muster.
