( he is not LITTLE he is a PERFECTLY AVERAGE HEIGHT )

Why is it surprising? You’ve been infuriating since the day you— woke up.

( met was almost the word, there, but that wouldn’t have been wholly accurate. scared the fuck out of him, sure. but in those first blissful days, before esi regained consciousness and kirma was none-the-wiser as to what he’d picked up in the forest, things weren’t so bad.

still. isn’t he enjoying this just a bit too much? kirma supposes that was the whole point— a trap that he’d walked into without a thought, as usual. already a regular occurrence, it seems to be happening more and more these days. could he blame the house for that one, too? his grip on esi’s wrist tightens enough that his finally-regrowing nails dig in with points. )


Here’s what I’m curious about.

( steering them towards the bedroom, now. kiki and ollie better make themselves scarce. )

How does the crown prince debase himself so easily, here? ( just because he sees the trap being sprung doesn’t mean he’ll try to resist it. ) After all your complaints about mingling with us casteless folk…

( said complaints are many months old, even without their time in this place counted— but still. )

Who knows? It might suit you.

( in the same way that his would, for himself. even with the mark of the spade barely traced on the back of his neck, though, he’s beginning to understand the appeal of those feelings. at the same time, he knows he shouldn’t get carried away, no matter how much he’d like to— the gritted teeth is as much to keep his thoughts in check as it is from annoyance at esi’s continued yapping. )

For someone so concerned with appearances, you don’t seem to care much about your dignity. ( is he one to talk? the scar on his arm says otherwise, but you know. it’s different. ) Why come here at all? Go back to your proper room.

( the words are fairly meaningless, when he has esi’s wrist held so tight. go back to your room, he says, while making sure there’s no way he could possibly do so. only when they bump against the edge of the bed does he hesitate, distracted by the obstacle, the logistics. deeper in the throes of a suit, it would be easy to move forward—

without that, he simply lets go, averting his gaze. the set of his ears and low angle of his tail speak enough to his upset, sulking even, but that’s all. )

( kirma isn’t necessarily agreeing with the assessment. he just doesn’t resist as he’s pushed down, though his face turns away, a pointed gaze directed back towards the way they came— and more importantly, distinctly away from esi. sulky dog… )

Didn’t I.

( do you know how hard it is to find someone to text on these fucking watches, man. he tugs back on the hand esi is holding; not quite enough to actually free it, only enough to feign a disinterest. no more paw!!

— all that said, he’s not exactly fighting to leave. the recognition of his feelings is a small thing, one that surely won’t amount to much, but it does take the edge off his upset all the same. kirma assumes esi has already become more than aware of how easy he is to please, and thus elects not to volunteer any more indication of this than he needs to. what he does give is a subtle lean in, still refusing to face him, but one downturned ear pointing esi’s way just a little more than it was previously. keep going… )

( you probably don’t want to do that, dude. to give kirma some credit, he’s certainly bathing with more regularity than he ever did, back home— but he also did kill a lot of time today chasing rabbits after being expressly told not to. while the grime is more surface-level it certainly isn’t absent: grass, dirt, sweat, livestock, all things you generally wouldn’t want to make a perfume out of.

none of these things bother him, of course. mollified by the combination of attention and temptation, he turns to nip at esi’s ear, by the piercing. he’d tug on the earring itself, but he’ll probably get scolded for putting his filthy mouth on something so precious, or some other eye-rollingly spoiled complaint. with only one hand free— something that keeps happening, lately— he slips it under esi’s durumagi in the spot conveniently opened for him, running a hand up the back of his shirt and only leaving a little dirt behind. you know, for him. )


No, I did— perhaps you’re the one who needs reading lessons?

( it’s more flirting than it is any real argument, but this is a pretty good turn of events after the bickering from earlier, at least in kirma’s opinion. )

( maybe so. kirma would be the first to admit that communication isn’t his strong suit— language has always been one of the few subjects he’s truly felt clumsy with, which likely explains his resistance to literacy, even in a place where he truly doesn’t have anything better to do than learn. he takes the time to ponder this anyway, as he’s pulled away, following obediently.

at first.

once he realizes the direction he’s being pulled in, he balks, digging in his heels. (well. his beans.) ears flattened and tail tucked, he shakes his head. resisting esi’s strength isn’t difficult, of course; he doesn’t fully wrest himself from his grip, hoping that merely taking a stand is deterrent enough. )


I took a bath two days ago!

( said the most sufferingest of dogs, who spent all day rolling in the gardens. )

( his ears rise only slightly at the kiss, but they shoot straight up at the word promise. truly, there’s something loaded, within those syllables— even a dog can recognize that much. for all of esi’s cajoling, whining, demanding, never once has he said such a thing, not even while trying to convince kirma to protect him all the way to yangsa. for the first time in their current lives, he thinks: maybe i can trust this.

and if he can’t, if he doesn’t end up liking it…

there are ways for dogs to get their revenge, too. )


Daily is too much. I’ll never have a dry tail again.

( it’s easy for esi to insist on such a thing, when he only has hair to worry about. though kirma is less furry than he could be, the fur he does have is thick, to better insulate against the bitter cold that defines their home; no towel could ever hope to stand against the power of such an undercoat. bathing complaints aside, though, he is moving again. with caution, but moving all the same. )

( hi i can't sleep 🫡

kirma truly does elect to watch, at first. the shower is at fault, here; as the hiss of the water turns on, his hackles raise, the fur of his tail standing on end. it smooths over quickly enough, but man. never will he be used to that sound— there's a reason he makes the trek all the way down to the public baths, every time, to the bemusement of a few staff members who have caught on to the regularity. some guests just have their quirks, perhaps?

he doesn't answer either question, but he recognizes the prompt for what it is. god forbid a man enjoy the view... where the path before him leads is quite obvious, though. fine. esi does have a promise to fulfill, anyway.

unlike esi, his clothes do not end up folded, or anywhere appropriate at all. his belt is quickly tossed somewhere behind him, followed by the coat it overlaid, and after another breath or two, his shirt follows. there is no artistry to his movements, only function. here, with just pants left to go, he pauses, closing the distance between them; what starts out as a tender embrace is quickly revealed to be a pretense for something else, as he again puts his face against esi's neck, and—

a sniffening. )


Who did you see?

( answer carefully. )

( oh— it's an affirmation that makes his eyes narrow. circumstances do not lend well to pursuing it, though, as they get nearer and nearer to the water; he leans back a touch, as if the spray from where the water bounces off of esi's body might do him harm. ugh. his ears twist back and forth in consideration before he gives in, kicking off his pants unceremoniously and half-tackling esi into the shower.

any romance in the moment quickly ends as the water hits his face; he sputters, immediately shaking it off, sending droplets flying in every direction. this had really, better be worth it— )


I could've needed your help too, you know. Or the reverse—

( pointedly angling his face away from the stream of water, btw. )

What if you needed me? ( 🥺 )

( of course he would ruin it with a comment like that, right as things looking like they were getting good. he supposes esi thinks it’s cute, or something equally asinine— unfortunately, his current audience disagrees. )

Haven’t I been.

( relatively speaking, anyway. huff! his hands come forward, not to take over any soaping duties, but to take hold of esi’s head; his fingers wind their way into esi’s hair, bringing him in closer. it’s not the worst view, having esi below him, all that carefully teased and arranged styling out of the way, leaving his face in clear view. the fondness he feels in this moment is strange, but not unwelcome. )

If you still have complaints, I suppose I’ll need some guidance. ( alright. he’s easing into it, playing along. one thumb brushes an errant lock of hair out of the way, moving it behind an ear where it belongs. ) A demonstration might be in order.

( there's a confidence in those movements he can see, now, one that isn't inspired by an extra set of ears on his head. there's no funbling, but a practiced smoothness, each incremental step a carefully measured and deliberately piece. it's funny, normally— kirma wouldn't recognize that sort of thing in someone else. he goes through life with an intentional set of blinders on, even in a moment of intimacy. unless... it's esi, it seems. in this moment, it's true: all of his attention is firmly on the person before him.

reluctantly, he admits it's a bit charming. part of it comes from the fact that said confidence may be a bit overstated— it makes the corners of his mouth twitch, a passing ghost of a smile, but otherwise he keeps the thought to himself. with his hold on esi, kirma pulls him in closer, pressing the underside of his cock against esi's face— or maybe it's the other way around— it doesn't matter. one hand makes its way to the nape of esi's neck, taking up a fistful of hair; a firm hold, but not a tight one. one that promises he'll take matters into his own hands, if esi takes too long. )


Still not convinced.

( the dry beats of his voice almost make the sentence sound genuine. the forward ears and the growing hunger in his eyes tell a different story, all of his focus clearly on the man before him. the jet of hot water pounding against his back in a steady stream is downright tolerable, as long as this is what's happening. )

( there it is. that’s more along the lines of what he was expecting— hesitance, unfamiliarity. it’s an endearing side of him, which is the worst part. kirma knows that it’s not something he should find charming in any way, and yet? there’s a sharp exhale from his nose, a sound approaching a snort of amusement.

he could leave it at that, let esi truly take his time. alas— he is awfully demanding, today. if he’s being accused of it, he may as well embrace it; there’s an itch at the back of his neck that supports this idea. it makes his fist tighten, truly pulling at the back of esi’s hair. )


I’ve just decided to start charging for my services.

( not really. a funny thought, though, isn’t it? with his grip on esi, he holds him fast, preventing him from escaping as he slowly eases himself further into his mouth. for a moment, he entertains the idea of forcing his way down esi’s throat, but— ah, it’d be too much. even this is pushing it, he thinks, despite the relatively respectful pace. let him adjust, first, before he goes any further. )

( — how unfortunate.

not just for esi. the moment of struggle against his grip, the gagging, it all elicits a very visible response on kirma's end, pupils dilating, breath quickening. even his tail wags, a bit, before he catches hold of himself again, reining in the violent urge that rises within him as esi attempts to pull back. it's an internal exchange that takes just a little too long to resolve; but in the end, he releases esi completely, giving him control back over his movements.

suddenly, kirma's gaze is everywhere but at the man before him, though it most favors the ceiling. his hands still hover nearby, fingertips barely brushing against esi's shoulders, but unwilling, unable to do more. not without something more dire happening, anyway. )

Wasn't even trying to make you choke, yet... ( kirma mumbles, in a small voice. man. he clears his throat, as if he had been the one on the receiving end of things. )


You're alright?

( because he is still very much hard. maybe even moreso, after that. )
