jinglebros | newlydead r2 - day 8

[ Aoi's not thinking that Corrin will not be able to comprehend. Or maybe he is, and he's playing dirty. Even he's not sure. ]

Yeah... don't think he was ready though... cuz he decided not to do it.

[ He kisses down to Corrin's neck, laying one kiss over each mark he left before. ]

[ He shivers at the gentle kisses to the marks he had gotten and arched up a bit so their chests touched a moment.

That got his attention now. ]

Wh...What was there to be afraid of? Why? Did the person he live disappoint him?

No way... he's got self esteem issues... I think he disappointed himself...

[ Aoi resists the urge to suck on one of those marks and make Corrin arch up again. He's not going to play that dirty. But he does tug at Corrin's collar. ]

Hey... let's get some of this off. It's unwieldy.

Even so, he still sounds like a kind person when it comes down to it. He sounds brave for wanting to put his heart out like that for someone.

I'm glad he has you for a friend.

[He will blink up at you for a second before finally getting what you mean. An apologetic look came to his face as he began to help Aoi with taking some of his armor off. ]

Sorry...

Pfft. Why are you sorry? [ He kisses Corrin on the lips to try to sooth that apology away. ] He's really kind, yeah. But I guess he ended up running away in the end. I think I should talk to him and tell him he did the wrong thing?

Because neither of them are going to be truly happy until he does...

[ And it did soothe it away, because Aoi may hear Corrin giggle a bit at the kiss before quickly returning an affectionate kiss of his own. Aoi you're cute, so Corrin's gonna reach up and wrap his arms (free from its usual armor now!) and give a kiss to Aoi's nose. ]

You're a very good person, Aoi. I hope you know that. Those friends of yours are so lucky to know you.

I hope he finds the courage, someday... Love is a beautiful thing and who is he to shy from it.

[ He's not used to being called a good person and it shows in how he shies up a little, glancing away and blushing before nuzzling his face against Corrin's neck.. ]

It's hard not to shy away from it sometimes... it's beautiful but scary. [ His voice is muffled but hopefully still perceptible. ] But if you can find your way to giving into it, it's amazing, you know?

[Ok, now he couldn't help but chuckle at how bashful the other man was. But he won't put him on the spot. At least for long.

You're cute, Aoi... He will hug him, now, attempting to bring them both closer. ]

I'm glad to have a chance to experience it. I really am.

And you think your friend just got overwhelmed and was afraid of getting hurt, is what you're saying?

Yeah, I think so.

[ Aoi hugs him back, snuggling up as close as possible. ]

So I'm going to talk to him... try to boost up his self confidence.

If you need it. I can offer my help, too. No one shoul dave ot deal with that alone. I'm glad he has you.

[ Corrin really is enjoying just.... feeling the warmth and presence of this other person in front of him. His own hands begin to move and rub up and down Aoi's back.

He wondered if his increasing heartbeat was noticeable. ]

So if you spoke of him proposing... Was it a ring, then? [That you had found just now.]

...Yeah. Yeah, it was.

[ Aoi sighs at the rubbing and starts to relax against Corrin. He presses his lips against the other's throat again, trying to make him feel as nice as he is currently feeling. ]

Thanks for offering, too, but I don't want him to feel confronted... I think I gotta do it myself.

May I see it? [It's ok if you don't want to, Aoi. He'll understand.

He will shiver but then relax at the kiss to his throat, one of his legs raised up and rubbed at Aoi's side encouragingly or in attempt to let him know this felt nice. ]

I'm here if you need anything... I hope you know that. Don't let it drain you too much.

I'd rather not... for one thing, I'd have to get up to get it out of my pocket, and I really don't want to separate us right now.

[ He hooks his hand under Corrin's thigh as he settles himself fully between the other's legs. Now the point of things is distraction, and he rubs his fingers against soft skin. ]

I know you're here for me. I'm here for you too. No matter what, okay?

[He almost feels dizzy from just how warm and stimulating this was. He's managing to still focus on Aoi.

At that... He blinks up at him. You sure are... affectionate, right now? It was not a bad thing but. ]

What suddenly brought that up, Aoi? Are you alright? [He appreciates it but he also has a hint of concern in his tone of voice.]

Yeah, I'm alright. I'm just kinda thinking about... how much everything sucks, I guess.

[ He buries his face against Corrin's shoulder for a moment, then AOi resurfaces to press a kiss against his forehead. ]

This game, our limited time...

[ His smile looked more forced at that. He comes up to hug Aoi tighter against him.

He... can't help but agree with Aoi that he wished they met without the concept of one of them possibly not being here for long. But that's not what Aoi needs to hear. ]

I'll protect you with my life, Aoi.

[ Aoi's face crumples into a frown at that. He clings on as tightly as possible. ]

I don't.... want you to die. Not even for me.

If it means you had another day to live... Ah... Well...

...Just know that I would understand. [As in. He'd understand and wouldn't resent you if it ever got to that point in the game if you had to choose someone over him.] You had someone to protect coming here, didn't you?

[He tries to be comforting as he hummed and began to rub soothing circles on Aoi's back.]

[ Just as before, Aoi buries his face against Corrin's shoulder, but this time it's to hide the fact that his eyes are suddenly wet from what Corrin is saying. He doesn't want this to be obvious but his breath is choked in his throat, so that just makes it obvious after all, dammit. ]

...

I wouldn't forgive myself if you changed anything because of me.

[And he heard it. And felt the moisture on his shoulder. The prince raises a hand to run it gently through that surprisingly soft white hair and his other arm remained wrapped around Aoi.]

It's alright, Aoi. I love you.

[ Aoi tries his very, very best not to cry on Corrin's shoulder, to keep this to just a few tears, but he ends up doing so. He manages to mumble some form of 'I love you too' and his shoulders shake as he clings. ]

Can't fail can't do it again can't fail her and can't fail you

[ Trying to talk is hard and he probably doesn't make much sense, but those are the words he's trying to say. ]

[Ok, now he's concerned. He didn't mean for this; to make Aoi upset. Corrin frowns and moves so Aoi is in his lap and begins to rock them both a bit, in hopes to comfort him.

It's ok if it's hard to; You don't have to talk.]

[ Aoi is comforted somewhat by that, but then something occurs to him and he starts laughing through his tears, which is not actually a good thing. It's a bad kind of laughter and he puts his hands over his mouth to try to stop it. Good lord, he must sound like he's having a mental breakdown, he thinks! ]

[And he definitely notices that. NOW he is getting more and more worried by the second. That laughter through crying was unsettling him, but he soes his best to stay composed for the other.]

Aoi-

What is it? Did I do something? Please try to talk to me...

[ Aoi scrubs his hand over his face and tries to catch his breath, concentrating on calming down the tears. PUSH THEM DOWN PUSH THEM DOWN he chants at himself mentally, and tries bringing up a poem to concentrate on. He starts muttering the words under his breath.

It's helping and he looks Corrin in the eye finally, his face wet but at least he's not weirdly laughing anymore. ]

I'm sorry, I'm just... [ He hiccups. ] I'm just fucked up, okay? I guess that's obvious now.
