starmark: (COCKY ☆ ohhh now you fucked up)

If I eat all of this before you're back, am I allowed to have seconds?

[But there's something powerfully satisfying in the way that Alucard clutches his gifts, as he clings to them in a way that suggests quiet delight. It's such a change from the Alucard who wanted to shut himself up in his coffin and sleep until he wasted away. That's the part that makes it all worth it — that single flash of pleasure reflected in his dhampir who sometimes looks so sad.

The kiss surprises him, not in and of itself, but with the abrupt flood of Chroma that seems to wash over him the moment it makes contact. Sanguis is always a bit like that, he knows, but this...this is something amplified, something far more potent than usual.]


Go on, then. I won't go anywhere.
starmark: (ALARM ☆ holy shit jiji's doing what)

[personal profile] starmark 2020-02-02 08:55 am (UTC)(link)
[It's downright embarrassing how abruptly he reacts when Alucard makes his return, when he knows full well what's coming. It's just — there's such a difference between imagination and reality, and the reality is so, so much better than anything he could've possibly come up with on his own.

He's seen Alucard dressed up before, at the Firialia Ball and around, but he's never been dressed up like this. And he'd be lying if he said there hadn't been a small measure of hesitation in the Caihong shop when he'd been drawn to pieces ostensibly meant for beautiful women, but had proven unable to resist choosing them anyway in spite of that.

But Alucard doesn't look like a woman. He just looks stunning, draped in a fabric and pattern that enhance his natural (perhaps supernatural) beauty, with accessories to match. And evidently he feels comfortable enough in it, or he wouldn't be relaxed enough to fiddle and play with the material upon his return.]


Holy shit.

[He put his hair up; it draws attention to his neck, slender and pale, and Jotaro's definitely not a vampire but all of a sudden he can kind of see where parts of the neck appeal come from.]

Is it soft? Do you like it? You look...incredible.
starmark: (ENTICE ☆ ways to flirt and flounce)

[personal profile] starmark 2020-02-02 03:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Be ready for that, sometime.

[It's not that he's impatient, precisely. But the instant Alucard draws within reach, Jotaro's hands are on him, framing his hips at first to tug him closer, then running up his body to feel the shallow curves that he knows are hidden beneath the silk. He's seen Alucard naked before, he knows what's there. It just doesn't stop him from being fascinated by him any less.]

Wanted you to have something nice. That'd make you think of me.

[His thumb catches a nipple through the silk; he rubs over it again more deliberately the second time, smoothing the fabric over and around the sensitive nub.]

Dunno why it was this, but I saw it and just thought of you.
starmark: (WINK ☆ this is my jiji impression)

[personal profile] starmark 2020-02-02 06:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe when you stop being so damn distracting.

[Deep down, though, he knows he'll be back to the meal soon, once he's had his momentary fill of being close to Alucard. The udon is as much a gift for him as these things are for Alucard, and he'd be an asshole to ignore the significance of that.]

Come sit with me. I think I wound up with a dragon's appetite, too, along with the rest of it.
starmark: (GENTLE ☆ as strong as what i believe)

[personal profile] starmark 2020-02-02 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
You'd be distracting even without them.

[It's his turn to gasp softly, though, when he feels the suggestion of Alucard's teeth. Even with a dragon's self-assured confidence, the caress of a vampire's fangs aren't something anyone could ignore; they demand attention, and reaction, and he offers up both in spades.

Curious, he muses as he settles back into his chair and watches Alucard come in close at his side. Alucard had been so afraid back on that rooftop — I don't know if I can be human enough. Fangs aren't a human feature. A human couldn't kiss him like that.

He looks at Alucard and tries to imagine all that it must've taken, for him to end up so uncertain of his own humanity. People aren't born knowing they're different. That doesn't happen until they're told. But Alucard knows, and yet he would twist himself into knots, shove himself into whatever shape and pattern and mold it took to be human enough, if that was what was asked of him. He would do it because his feelings demanded it, because his heart compelled it.

Dracula's obsession turned outward, he muses as his gaze skims slowly over the lovely contrast of silk cloth and sleek skin, and Wallachia crumbled beneath it. Alucard's nature, he suspects, is to turn it inward, and ensure that the only person hurt by it is himself.

What an enigma he is. Half vampire, half human, at times the best of both, at others the worst of each. Sometimes Alucard, sometimes Adrian. Lonely and hungry and uncertain and, at times, even desperate.

No, he's exactly right just the way he is, isn't he? Only an absolute fucking idiot would think otherwise.]


...Hey. You kiss me like that, and I'm the tease?
starmark: (TEMPT ☆ so give us a tantrum)

[personal profile] starmark 2020-02-02 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah? What's the difference, specifically?

[He plays innocent a minute, using the time to enjoy another few mouthfuls of the udon; no sense in letting it go to waste.]

Just because I knew you'd like it? Like you don't kiss me with your fangs knowing full well how much it gets me going.
starmark: (SMUDGE ☆ where's my kiss you bastard)

[personal profile] starmark 2020-02-02 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Only when it's you.

[Oh, oh, look at this coy little bastard, now he's enjoying this, leaning into a lounge, head propped on his hand like the enticing thing he is. The fact that Jotaro manages not to lick his lower lip from looking at him is an absolute miracle. The fact that he can't keep himself from chewing the edge of his lip instead is in no way a surprise.]

And this isn't a public space, unless I'm missing something.

[personal profile] starmark 2020-02-02 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's a good thing he doesn't have any of his udon in his mouth at the moment or he might well have choked on it; as it is, his throat goes dry and he has to swallow hard to wet it again, throat rising and falling beneath the effort. Of course he'd known that, reasonably, or at least could have worked it out logically just from observation, but that's not the point at all.

The point is Alucard making a show of drawing attention to it, and that's the real tease in and of itself.

Unable to help himself, his tail flicks, the scaled muscle working effortlessly to curl up and catch the tip beneath the dangling hem of Alucard's kimono, lifting it just a fraction of an inch in suggestion before letting it fall again. That's new to him, too; he's never really actively tried to use his tail for anything before, either as a wolf or like this, but evidently the dragon's version has uses he'd never even considered up until now.]


Hah...

[The wolf would've pounced by now, he thinks absently, while his too-green eyes track slowly over Alucard's frame. Maybe it's for the better that he's under the calmer influence of the Sanguis dragon; he's discovering, unexpectedly, that the lack of the wolf's urgency almost makes it all the better, allowing him to savor the act of being teased for that much longer.]

Seems like you know a lot about it. Teasing.

[This time, he does lick his lips, openly letting Alucard see it.]

How many different kinds are there?
starmark: (GENTLE ☆ as strong as what i believe)

[personal profile] starmark 2020-02-02 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not that great with words...

[Though it is markedly easier to say what's on his mind to Alucard than it is to...essentially anyone else. He thinks a minute, then slides his hand to cover over Alucard's where it rests on his knee, holding it there for a moment or two before tugging it up a little higher on his thigh.]

But that reminds me. There was something I wanted to ask you, now that it's...not Iris. I feel like maybe you want different things during Iris than you might otherwise. So.

[Leaving Alucard's hand where it is, trusting he'll take the hint, Jotaro reaches over and hooks a claw behind one of the folds of the robe where it crosses over his chest, forming the V of the neckline. A slight tug loosens it, just an inch — still slow, still enticing.]

You know I would never do anything you don't want. Yeah?
starmark: (DOKI ☆ oh shit tsun harder tsun harder)

[personal profile] starmark 2020-02-02 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[He was already lovely tidied up and put-together; disheveled, he's on an entirely different level. Almost curiously, that same clawed finger comes up to rest near Alucard's temple, sliding gently beneath one of his pulled-back locks of hair and easing it free until it falls loose of its hold.

Better still. It's on the side opposite his fallen sleeve; there's a satisfying sort of balance to the way the previously perfect picture he'd made is coming apart.]


Do you want me to make you behave?

[The thought slips out before he can even really think about it, fully-formed after hours upon hours of private consideration in his own mind.]

I know you're afraid, sometimes. I...don't want you to do something you're not okay with, either. But you said — that it might feel better if I took the lead. That you wouldn't have to worry so much, if I were keeping you in check.

[His finger hooks beneath Alucard's chin, nudging him to lift it slightly.]

Just say yes or no. It doesn't have to be something we do today. I just want to know if that's something I should start thinking about.
starmark: (HORIZON ☆ my god i found the leviathan)

[personal profile] starmark 2020-02-03 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
...Wait. Really?

[His eyebrows go up at once, betraying his genuine surprise. Though, he supposes upon further reflection, maybe it makes a sort of sense. Maybe it's that, paradoxically enough, he doesn't look particularly human, so —

Or maybe it's more than that. Maybe it's not just that he's less visibly human; maybe it's that he's more visibly half and half.

Hmmm.]


Because of all this? The horns and scales and...tail?
starmark: (DAZED ☆ for god's sake just let him rest)

[personal profile] starmark 2020-02-03 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
...My voice? Wait — you mean I'm...

[...You know, that would explain why all the sellers in Caihong were so eager to wait on him. And to do basically anything he asked for, really. He'd assumed they were just spooked by the horns, but...

His eyes widen a fraction, and in a flash of violet light, Star Platinum appears and vanishes, dispatched on an errand that has him flitting out of the apartment and returning with a pad of paper and a marker, which squeaks aggressively as Star uncaps it and writes on the pad with lightning-fast, laserlike precision.

It's probably not surprising, what's waiting on the pad when Star turns it around, while Jotaro very emphatically keeps his own mouth clamped shut: ]


SORRY. I DIDN'T KNOW I WAS DOING THAT.
I DON'T WANT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOU.

ARE YOU OK NOW?
starmark: (YOUNG ☆ some nights i call it a draw)

[personal profile] starmark 2020-02-03 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
...Oh.

[He still seems a touch tentative about actually uttering words aloud, but once he and Star share a quick glance, his Stand surrenders the paper and marker and withdraws again, leaving Jotaro to his own devices.

He turns his attention back to Alucard, reassured somewhat by the feeling of hands covering his own.]


So it just...calms you down? When I was buying that stuff for you, everyone seemed really...helpful. But I didn't realize that it was because of me.

[He shifts his hands, weaving their fingers together.]

...What do you think would happen if I did more than just talk?
