vampire trash? me?

[falsify]

[It's been on his mind a lot over the last few weeks, the idea of becoming a vampire. Partially because he's looking older than Arthur these days, and if he lets that go on too long it's going to get pretty weird, but moreover he just feels ready]

[Anxious as fuck, but ready.]

[The idea of it is terrifying — he'd gone to Mal for an explanation of the finer details rather than worry Arthur with his questions, seeing as she's actually done it before and Arthur hasn't — the idea that he could just... Die. It's not one that sits easy with Eames. He rather likes being alive, in fact half the point of becoming a vampire is to keep being alive, for a stretch on the word, forever.]

[So he's been dealing with that a lot, pretending otherwise whenever Arthur notices him being distant or pensive so he can work out his feelings on this without any outside influence. He knows Arthur wouldn't be mad if he changed his mind, it's a huge change to undertake, but it's not that he might not want this so much as wondering if the risks are really worth it.]

[They are.]

[But now they need to talk about it, so Eames is psyching himself up to do exactly that. Offered to stay in and make dinner while Arthur's off doing his errands to give himself some time alone to think about it. Maybe making some significant progress on a bottle of wine to calm his nerves, maybe it'll slow him down enough Arthur won't realise how keyed up he is the second he gets home.]

Comments

[specifiercity]

[Arthut hums with Eames’ movement, clearly part of his body wants to finish what they started.]

It’s okay. It didn’t even occur to me that you’d be tempted to do that.

[He’s trying to sound reassuring as he gets over the shock of the whole thing, and he lays back with a sigh before looking at Eames with a smirk and a raised eyebrow.]

How did I taste?

[falsify]

Good.

[He's a little hesitant to say it, because he feels as though he might just think that because he hasn't had the real thing fresh from the source, but he shakes his head and looks down at Arthur with an attempt at a smirk to fight that off.]

Like a zero calorie alternative.

[specifiercity]

[Arthur puts his hand on Eames' hip and rubs his thumb back and forth affectionately.]

I've never tried another vampire's blood.

[falsify]

[A little reluctantly, Eames slips off Arthur to lay on his back next to him. Part of him would like to continue, but other parts are obviously flagging thanks to how awkward and uncomfortable Eames is feeling and sitting on Arthur's dick is really only making that worse right now.]

Don't know why you would.

[specifiercity]

[Arthur looks down at himself, privately lamenting the fact that he's probably not going to get off very soon. The bite to his neck surprisingly didn't interupt his boner. He'd roll over and cuddle up but he doesn't need to get all of that up in Eames' space so he stays put, though he turns his head to look at Eames with his eyebrows pulled together in thought.]

Part of me assumed I'd keep biting you during sex.

[falsify]

[Eames laughs at that, mostly in surprise.]

Really?

[He turns his head to look at Arthur.]

I assumed you wouldn't want to.

[specifiercity]

[Arthur shrugs a shoulder.]

Honestly, by the end it was a lot less about the blood, although the blood was still a good part of it. You just liked it so much.

[falsify]

Mm, you're so giving.

[He's teasing, obviously, and he turns on his side to get a little closer to Arthur.]

[specifiercity]

[Arthur lifts his arm to put it around Eames.]

Do you want me to?

[falsify]

Mmhm.

[Eames shifts closer again and puts a hand on Arthur's hip.]

Always.

[specifiercity]

[Arthur hums and noses at Eames’ face.]

I can’t believe you but me.

[falsify]

Shut up.

[Eames snorts and noses back, leaning in for a quick kiss and murmurs against Arthur's lips.]

I'm new to this.

[specifiercity]

I know.

[Arthur hums back, mirroring Eames’ tone.]

It’s very charming.

[falsify]

For you, maybe.

[specifiercity]

[Arthur gives him a brief squeeze.]

I didn’t hate it, it just surprised me.

[falsify]

Surprised me too.

[Eames sighs, appreciating Arthur's attempts here, but it doesn't really do anything to stop how he feels about all this.]

I've never been that caught off by my own behaviour before. I don't like it.

[specifiercity]

[Arthur nods, looking around thoughtfully.]

It’s a different set of urges to get used to. Humans have all of infancy to get used to theirs and they aren’t nearly as overwhelming as ours.

[falsify]

Right, but it's hardly as if there's a pulse and fresh blood in there to get me all riled up.

[specifiercity]

I don’t know, maybe it’s a visceral thing. Feeling the skin under your lips. For me sometimes it was more the heat coming off of you than the heartbeat. Sometimes just biting into flesh fulfills a need you didn’t know you had.

[falsify]

It did feel really good.

[He sighs and moves so he can tuck his head under Arthur's a little petulantly.]

[specifiercity]

]Arthur hums and brushes his cheek against Eames’ hair.]

Maybe we should try it again some time. No one’s actually bitten me for centuries and it wasn’t very sexy. Well, it was sexy for Dom and Mal I guess. They usually drank from me as foreplay.

[falsify]

I should probably figure out how to control myself first.

[specifiercity]

We’ll figure it out.

[Another squeeze.]

[falsify]

Will you still love me if I'm an uncontrollable monster?

[He's mostly joking.]

[Mostly.]

[specifiercity]

[He kisses Eames’ head.]

As long as you still listen to me.
