Dohalim Melqal il Qaras Na'amo ([personal profile] ilqaras) wrote in [community profile] eggbowl2023-08-01 01:28 am

[Dohalim/Gepard] I don't know how to feel...

[Dohalim wouldn't necessarily call it a chaotic disarray currently, but the sudden departure of one of his captains is, understandably, enough to shake the knights. Serval was truly one of his best, and one who upheld his ideals of coexistence to their core. so it was a surprise to receive her resignation letter, and a quick word of appreciation for the opportunity to serve under him; before he could say anything to try to convince her to change her mind, she was off. though, Dohalim is sure that anything he could have said would have been met with decline. the Landaus, for all their loyalty in serving the il Qaras family for generations (despite their own nobility), are a stubborn folk, and once they've made up their mind on anything, there would be no convincing them of otherwise.


honestly, even if the decision was abrupt, Dohalim knows that she'll be fine. that isn't what's on his mind as he heads down the ornate hallway to the barracks. perhaps a visit paid by him will lift the knights' spirits, but really, he has every intention on seeing one person. Gepard... Serval is his sister, after all. he's not sure what the man is thinking, if he knew of her resignation long before she had made it official, or if this came to just as a surprise to him as everyone else. either way, it would be nice to see Gepard and offer whatever words he can to him.

of course, as soon as he enters the barracks, he's bombarded with questions and requests by the other guards, wondering just what will happen, and how Serval's unit will be taken care of. as much as he wants to brush them aside to look for Gepard, he just can't, in good faith, so it seems like he'll be here for a while. oh well, what kind of leader would he be if he didn't listen to his people?]

Doha—lim— don't—

[It's such a struggle to form words as the redhead teases him. He looks... Gods, he looks beautiful there, but when doesn't he?]

Don't bring— nngh!— d-duty into this... you're the one that I...

[It's not that he would deny his lord anything, but it leaves a little bit of an uncertainty there. If his lord were someone else, if they had him like this... could he say no? He'd just rather not think about it.

He can't look away, even as his cheeks remain devastatingly hot in response to the sight. Trained on each other, everything feels so much more intimate. And his gaze trembles slightly in the face of every overwhelming sensation, twisting up in pleasure he doesn't know how to contain or what to do with.]


Ah-haaah... D-do... 'm glad—

[it'd be awfully awkward if he didn't like the taste, after all. But oh, the heat of him... Gepard can already barely control his volume, but as every inch sinks deeper into that warmth, he has to exhale a sharp curse. He's not small, he knows that much, so for Dohalim to take it all down is... impressive, to say the least.]

I... ah... fuck— doesn't that— isn't it uncomfortable?

[He can feel the way his cock is stretching Do's throat, even if he can't quite see it. It's tight, hot, alarmingly addictive; the blonde has to wonder how he'd even come to manage it. There's no jealousy in it, no worries over his bed mates (what right could he possibly have to complain anyway?), just... curiosity.

As much curiosity as he can muster as his hips tremble and shift. The urge to buck up is surprisingly strong, but he won't risk harming the redhead.]

[well, it's as clear a response as any, isn't it? Gepard gives up on the idea of speech then, watching the haze of pleasure meld onto his face. no, this clearly isn't painful for him. does it really feel that good? the blonde can only guess...

his breaths are already turning ragged before Dohalim reaches for a hand, and his expression is curious and questioning as he follows its guide. he... ah. he really wants him to...? it would be a lie to say he's not nervous at the thought, but... the redhead knows what he wants, doesn't he?

strong fingers curl in wavy hair, still a little unsure, somehow sweet in its kneading motions. it's more for him than the other, really, that he gives him plenty of time to respond... but after a moment, he gives a bracing breath and tightens his grip a little, hips lifting as that hand pulls down. it's- excruciating, almost; he'd thought for sure that all of it was in before, but the choked groan he exhales proves otherwise. fuck, fuck...

there's a sense of difficulty too, in making sure he's focusing on the other Renan. that he'll see it immediately if he recoils, if something seems off or too much or... he doesn't know. anything. the action itself doesn't come naturally in the first place, but he wants to please.]

[personal profile] earthwork 2023-08-19 10:43 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not...

[there's a pause as Gepard assesses everything. as he looks over Dohalim, lips wet with precum and saliva, his expression so... fully immersed in want and lust. the sound of his voice is absolutely tantalising, and as those beautiful lips wrap around the head of his cock again... ah.

the blonde nods, faintly.]


... I'll try. For you.

[if... if he likes it this way, the least he can do is try it, right? he trusts Dohalim, especially with his own body. so... he'll try. shifting to sit up on his elbow a little, his free hand glides over the redhead's cheek and up to his hair.

and, slowly, Gepard pulls Dohalim down, hips rising up to meet his face. it's more deliberate this time, his attention more focused on his lord's expressions. there's still a little hesitation there, but more fascination by far. (he'd be lying, too, to claim it doesn't feel amazing.)]
earthwork: (♪And I'll stand in the snow)

[personal profile] earthwork 2023-08-19 02:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[being who he is, it'll likely be a long path. Gepard is cautious and gentle almost to a fault, which makes even this much a testament to his trust in Dohalim when it comes to his own body.

There's a pause when hands tug at his pants, pulling them down toned legs a little further, and the blonde stows the slightly self-conscious feeling it brings up. At least, he's trying... the sound he makes when Dohalim's thumb brushes his taint is downright sinful, hips twitching and squirming half away and half toward the feeling.]


D-do...

[It's a whine, as he tries to intuit what the movements are telling him to do. He wants... he wants to feel more, but is that right? The man's made no move to pull away from his dick, and he still seems most elated when it's practically choking him. There's so much to learn all at once, but his body is already primed and ready.

Is obvious in the way his cock twitches in its warm confines, the sheer amount of pre that pours from the tip and into his mouth.]


I... nngh... I can't...

[He can't hold back much longer. His grip loosens a little, fully intending to let Dohalim pull away before his orgasm hits. It certainly doesn't occur to him that the redhead might want to swallow it all.]
earthwork: (♪Hear my promise of blistering light)

[personal profile] earthwork 2023-08-20 01:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[there's no time to question it, less still to protest in any way. Dohalim sets his pace and all Gepard can do is follow through in it. his hands, his mouth - he's entirely too skilled at this. it's absolutely overwhelming... but the blond can't say he minds.

of course, he can't say he's thinking much at all. everything is all instinct in that moment, from the way his hips twitch and jolt to the way his fingers twist just a little harder (too hard, he'll think later) in soft hair. the redhead's name falls brokenly from his lips, and it feels like mere seconds before he's thrown over the edge.

the other Renan will probably be pleased, and Gepard absolutely mortified later, as strong hands pull his face down into his hips, kneading and tugging at hair as his body trembles in orgasm. the sounds he makes are all entirely too loud too, practically echoing in the room. it feels... he can't even describe how good it feels, heat pouring into the warmth of his mouth, down his throat. he... he'd said he'd be fine, right? that the blond couldn't hurt him. in the briefest moments of lucidity, he clings to that reminder.]
earthwork: (♪And it's all that I will ever need)

[personal profile] earthwork 2023-08-20 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[There's almost a moment of panic when he comes down a little; even through the haze of Dohalim's enthusiastic work, worry and embarrassment creep in just a little. His grip loosens even though the redhead makes no attempt to move, a murmured apology on his lips.

But... hands soothe up his torso, and even without him pressing down he stays there. It seems... it seems the young lord was being quite earnest. And he, in turn, finds himself a little sensitive by the time the man pulls away, breath slowing to faintly shuddery pants.]


I'm... you are too kind. [He still wants to ask, to ensure he's alright, but...] that was... I don't think I have the words.

[It's written all over his face, though. His cheeks are still pink, but there's a relaxation to him that's rare to see, at best. It flickers with still lingering want as Dohalim kisses his way up his chest, fingers sliding down the man's back as he moves upward.

... and of course, despite his currently softening cock and the pleasure of orgasm, he hasn't forgotten Dohalim's own need. He's not stupid, and he still wants to...]


I... [how does he say it? Gepard isn't unused to feeling clumsy, but... his voice is a little shy when he speaks.] is there still more you'd like to do? It... is quite early in the night, after all...
earthwork: (♪In the shade of a life to die for)

[personal profile] earthwork 2023-08-21 11:16 am (UTC)(link)
[Gepard still struggles to keep track of every thought as Dohalim moves, his gaze half-hidden behind long lashes as he watches. he looks as good as he feels, and there's a faint inhale when that bulge presses against his thigh. ah... he really does need some help, doesn't he?]

Dohalim...

[he takes each implication in stride, thinking on it all. the idea of it not being a one-time thing... ah, what an exhilarating thought. there's a lot he only knows in passing, but when it comes to this...

when it comes to the thought of Dohalim's mouth on him, his hands touching all over, can he claim not to be almost... impatient for it? the idea of being coveted is new, and hearing that the redhead has wanted it for so long?]


... It isn't too much. [there's that breathiness to his voice again, hands reaching up to cup Dohalim's face gently.] I'm able to handle being a little overwhelmed, you know... but I want all of this. I can't... begin to say how long I've wanted to admit how I feel to you, let alone be here.

[even if he didn't know what to expect, that thought has been there for a long time. he'd just thought he was too old, or too rigid, or too... something. anything. Dohalim deserves so much more than his clumsy inexperience. but if he'll have him...]
earthwork: (♪In the shade of a life to die for)

[personal profile] earthwork 2023-08-21 07:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[foreheads meet and for a moment, Gepard closes his eyes to relish in it. Just being so close to Dohalim, sweet and kind and gentle, it's worth... well, everything. The things he's admitted, the things he may never admit.]

I... I have to admit I'm still surprised by that. [Exhaling a soft laugh, the blond strokes a thumb along Dohalim's cheek.] To think, I was sure there was no chance, even back home...

[not even speaking socially, really. There was their positions to consider, but it's never been what kept Gepard quiet. It would just be trouble, especially with his job being what it is... but it really does feel different in Menancia. Like he could just... be, a little.

At his question, Gepard can feel that flush returning in force. Does he have to name it again...? He'll get used to that embarrassment eventually. Probably.]


... I'm sure, Dohalim. I want to... I'll give you anything I can. Myself is certainly included.

[There's some lingering nervousness for him, but he covers it well enough. This time he really has to rely on Dohalim's lead, after all.]
earthwork: (♪And it's all that I will ever need)

[personal profile] earthwork 2023-08-22 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
Nonetheless, I would like to give you that and more, Do.

[he doesn't reach for the man's nickname, not as much as Serval does at least, but in a place like this... well, he's relaxed and comfortable, not to mention pleased to be here. a smile twitches on his lips when Do's meet the corner of them, head tilting to watch curiously as he... pulls out a bottle.

it makes sense, really; there's no way he could just safely take him, after all. Gepard is no fool, though he does feel a little foolish to be staring so... blatantly at the redhead, once he's stripped off his sleepwear. ah... he really is beautiful. practically blemish free, with the musculature to match both his grace and his fighting capability. the fact that he can see it when his dick twitches, when he's just looking over his own naked form, doesn't hurt matters at all.

no, that doesn't hurt matters in the least, and he doesn't bother to mute the shuddery little groan that rises up when hips grind down against his. he's starting to get back to that state of proper arousal, he thinks; either that or his body is just particularly sensitive to the other Renan. lips meet, soft and chaste, and Gepard reaches up to hold along his jaw, thumb brushing his cheek.]


I'll be alright, I'm sure... but I'll let you know. I have... something of a passing understanding as far as what to expect, at least.

[his cheeks turn just a little pink as he thinks back on it, at the way it felt when Do just brushed against him before. it'll only be more embarrassing, he's sure, once he starts reacting to more.]
earthwork: (♪To believe)

[personal profile] earthwork 2023-08-23 01:10 pm (UTC)(link)
I— I haven't... overmuch...

[His embarrassment will never fade, at this rate. Dohalim is too got at knocking him off guard, especially in this space where he's already out of his depths.]

To be honest... I didn't think that much beyond lying here with you. Kissing you. I wasn't— entirely sure how anything beyond it would work, let alone what to expect.

[His hands slide around Do's waist, holding him close.]

I just wanted to make you happy, to treat you as sweetly as you deserve. But... I can't say I dislike this position, either.

[It makes some sense, anyway. Gepard is a rigid man when it comes to duties, and with a bloodline as powerful and storied as the Landau's? Everything was practically written in stone. Of course he expected to be the one to sweep his partner off her feet; even if she was a fighter, that etiquette wouldn't change.

And that makes it all the more exciting and confusing, being the one laid in bed and stripped bare.]
earthwork: (♪In a heartbeat only silence)

[personal profile] earthwork 2023-08-23 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[There's so much he wants to say. He wants so badly to stop Dohalim, to melt into the aching sweetness of that kiss and just... admit so much... but it's not the place or the time. It may never be.]

I would never leave you off my own volition, Dohalim.

[It's so much admission so at once, melded into a phrase spoken carefully plainly. If he could, he would turn the world upside down just to stay with him. If Do thinks he's being sentimental now...]

I— I'm not sentimental... [It's a miracle he doesn't huff.] must you tease me so? I can't even be mad at you when you say it so sincerely.
earthwork: (♪One day I know we will meet again)

[personal profile] earthwork 2023-08-24 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
That's hardly by design, you know...

[but he really is so easy to tease sometimes. Dohalim only leans harder into that, the brush of breath prickling his skin and the sound of his voice dragging a shiver through him.]

Doha--lim-

[his voice is so plaintive, a little whine in his tone as the redhead cups his cock, subtle rubbing all too plain to him. ah... ah. that is good, by the expression on his face.]

I can-- admit it's a little less-- embarrassing... haah... only a little...

[it's definitely enough to have his hands sliding up over the other's shoulders, fingers curling pleasantly around them.]
earthwork: (♪Death comes to all)

[personal profile] earthwork 2023-08-24 02:04 pm (UTC)(link)
D-do— wait—

[Oh, but he makes such a needy noise as teeth bite down on skin, a hand threading into soft locks amid a tremble that betrays his actual thoughts. It's unfair, being so... responsive. Do is just so adept at finding the right spots, and he can't even be mad at the ache left behind when he pulls away, angry red rising on soft skin.]

I— can't help it— mmnh... [He knows he'll struggle to recall everything Do does, at least enough to replicate it later... but he does intend to try. Right now, all he can think about is how good it feels, how hard he's getting in the younger man's grip.] You're... too good...

[His own movements are clumsy and directionless, but really, it's a miracle he can focus at all. He's considered something adjacent to this for so long too, albeit in reverse... maybe it was hubris, he thinks now, too think he could be so good for their first time together.]

Do... nngh... what else can I— do— for you...

[He's already getting so keyed up, and there's a sort of anxious energy that flows through him with nowhere to escape.]
