just rename this musebox 'the dump'

[traumatizing]

[If he hates parties, Terry hates the inter-label parties even more. It's exhausting being around all these people and pretending not to hate everything and everyone and having to introduce himself to all these Virgo people as if he cares about these conversations and doesn't just want to go back to his bed.]

[He's coming in from a smoke break (read: going outside in a desperate bid to get away from people for 10 minutes) when he bumps into someone on his way back in and immediately puts his hands out to steady whoever it was as if he's in any way bulky enough to knock someone bigger than a toddler over.]

Shit-- Sorry.

[traumatizing]

Yeah, I get that a lot.

[He laughs a little as he passes by Finnick into the building, pulling his hood down once he's inside and dragging his hands through his hair to fluff it back up.]

I'm pretty sure at least one of my bandmates thinks I'm still a virgin.

[thelittlemerman]

I hope they're mistaken.

[He starts to lead the way up the stairs. They're on the third floor so it's a bit of a climb, but nothing too terrible.]

[traumatizing]

[He snorts]

No offence, but hooking up with some jerk from Virgo isn't what I'd pick for my first time.

[thelittlemerman]

[Finnick laughs. He wouldn't pick himself for his first time either.]

I should hope not.

[traumatizing]

Well rest assured, you don't have that responsibility to weather.

[thelittlemerman]

[Finnick smirks over his shoulder at Terry and continues leading him up, opening the door to the third floor and glancing out before he ushers Terry through. It's not too far down the hallway and when Finnick opens the door to the room it's clear he hasn't done much other than get started on a small bottle of champagne from the minibar.]

So.

[He turns to Terry once they're inside with the door closed and smirks dangerously.]

You have anything particular in mind?

[traumatizing]

Not really.

[He is gonna help himself to that champagne though, and toss his jacket on the back of a chair.]

I figured you had something in mind since you're the one who suggested this.

[thelittlemerman]

I always try not to get too far ahead of myself.

[He sits down on the bed and reclines against the headboard, looking at Terry and then tilting his head.]

How far have you been with men before?

[traumatizing]

[Despite his nonchalance, Terry does flush a little at the question, but it's a reasonable thing to ask given the situation so he can appreciate that. He leans against the wall with a sigh, thinking about how to answer the question.]

Most... of the way?

[Wow does he feel stupid.]

I mean I've never received, but aside from that...

[thelittlemerman]

[Finnick raises his eyebrows thoughtfully at Terry's response. He's not so presumptuous as to pursue something Terry's never done before if he's not going to indicate he'd like to start, so after a moment's deliberation he asks lightly:]

Do you want to fuck me?

[traumatizing]

[Terry pulls a bit of a face, less at the question itself and more because he doesn't really know what he wants. And the longer he has to think about it and what he's done in the past, he kind of realises that he never has. He just kinda goes along with what whoever he's with happens to want so long as it's not Too Much.]

[He considers it a moment longer before he decides he doesn't want to think about it any more. Finnick invited him here so he can deal with that. Instead he toes off his shoes and puts the drink down, moving over to the bed to plant himself in Finnick's lap.]

What do you want?

[thelittlemerman]

[Finnick has a readymade answer for that, but he manages to make it look like he has to think for a moment.]

I just want to have a bit of fun.

[He puts his hands on Terry's hips and then slips them around to his ass, giving it a generous squeeze.]

If that means you inside me or me in your mouth or just watching each other jerk off, it makes no difference to me.

[traumatizing]

So neither of us really cares or wants to make a decision.

[He raises an eyebrow questioningly, but it's fine. Not every hookup needs to come with an itinerary, even if it puts Terry at ease a bit to know what people want from him. He just scoots a little closer on Finnick's lap and dips his head to kiss his neck and along his jaw, mostly just testing the waters to see what kind of a reaction it gets.]

Let's just see how things go on their own then.

[thelittlemerman]

[Finnick hums softly, dragging his hand up Terry's back and tilting his head to encourage that. He's good at improvising, so forging ahead without a goal isn't an issue for him, but part of him doesn't want to waste too much time just messing around before they get to the good part.]

[He supposes he can feign patience while Terry does this though.]

[traumatizing]

[Honestly Terry would prefer it a lot if Finnick were openly impatient instead of him pretending to care about this whole thing. As far as he can tell though, Finnick's into it so Terry proceeds with kissing his neck, adding a shallow rocking of his hips as he goes.]

[thelittlemerman]

[Finnick hums a little more insistently at that, gripping Terry's hip firmly to encourage him and pull his hips closer. His other hand goes to the back of Terry's neck, pulling him close for more attention.]

[traumatizing]

[Okay good, this is stuff he knows how to respond to, rocking his hips down harder against Finnick's and sliding his hands down over his torso and around to his back. Trying to get under Finnick's shirt to his skin.]

[thelittlemerman]

[Finnick can assist with that, taking his hand off Terry's hip to pull his shirt up, though with Terry's mouth on his neck it can only go so far. He doesn't bother trying to disengage to get his shirt off all the way but at least his stomach and part of his chest is exposed. Finnick knows people like those qualities about them.]

[traumatizing]

[They are Very Good and Terry would be a fan if he cared enough to look right now, but mostly he's still trying to figure out if there's anything that really works for Finnick other than having his dick touched.]

[Terry's happy to keep doing it — not entirely selflessly — he'd just kinda like him to actually enjoy this.]

[thelittlemerman]

[Finnick only turns his head, nudging at Terry's with his nose to try and get him to come in for a kiss. That's the only thing he feels like he needs right now, beyond the vague need for more touching everywhere.]

[traumatizing]

[Terry does that, tilting his head up to kiss Finnick and letting his hands come around to feel up his stomach and his chest.]

[thelittlemerman]

[Finnick's muscles tense under Terry's hand, but that's mostly for Terry's benefit as he moans softly into the kiss. His impatience gets the better of him a little bit as he reaches down to the front of Terry's pants with both hands to undo them, wasting no time in getting right in there to get some hand action going.]

[traumatizing]

[Terry gasps softly, regretfully pulling back for a moment so he can pull his shirt off and comes back to the kiss with a hum as he drops his hands between them to return the hand-in-pants favour. He feels like mostly what Finnick wants here is to get off, and he can help with that.]

[thelittlemerman]

[Finnick lets out a louder moan, like the hand down his pants is a welcome relief. He's not hard yet by any means but the blood is flowing, at least. Something in him wants to comment on the fact that Terry's nipples are pierced, but there are far more important things happening like kissing and he'd like to not interrupt that.]

[traumatizing]

[Terry kisses him happily enough, breathing out a quiet moan against his lips. His free hand comes up to the side of Finnick's face while he keeps his other working-- briefly pausing to wonder if he should've taken his jewellery off first but it's fine it's not like his rings are gonna catch on anything.]
