a_perfect_end: xineishiguro @lj made it! (windowlicker strut rides again)
Clu, for his part, was trying to figure out what to do with his hands. A praying position just felt--no, and interlacing his fingers had given it a nervous flavor he didn't like and didn't feel himself. The only real way to relax his arms was to rest his hands on his own chest, and that put him in touch with the body jewelry, the slink of metal on his skin, somehow more than he expected.

Everything, together, was--a lot. Not more than he could handle, but maybe more than he'd hoped for? The gathered effect was intricate and intense. It had been difficult to hold still, getting it all on, helping put it on, and in some cases letting it be put on once he couldn't reach, himself.

He could feel every inch of everything.

The blindfold was strangely centering. It cut out the light. It took the room itself away, let him focus on his breathing and on the way his heart felt under his fingers, the necklace chain pressed smooth under them in turn.

This had sort of started with Throne Wars: Age of Legends--the two-parter about gorgeous, brooding King Midas and his stupid, sexy harem. Of course, some of the details were edited for TV, and many more were spiced up, but. Something about it had haunted him even while they'd laughed together over it, cuddled up in front of the TV.

A day or so later, he'd steeled his nerves and asked. More like blurted the question while they were folding laundry. Same thing. One conversation quickly led to another, each making suggestions, adding some things, taking others away, working out a safety system, and egging each other on in general.

And now here they were. Here he was, in it quite literally up to his neck, quietly dying of excited anticipation.

Still, he was waiting patiently. He was being good.

He could be good.

How his code-brother ran through scenarios without pacing remained a puzzle to him. Clu curled his toes in the carpet to wait out the urge to move, blinking back at the dark with an even, slow breath out. His heart ignored that idea, still beating a lively tempo on his ribs that he was sure must be visible.

What were they making together? They'd blocked in some parameters, sure, but even the smoothest projects always went differently from planning. That was what planning was for: anticipation of new variables, accounting for the unexpected before it spiraled out of control. Or trying to. And he'd been made to make systems and plan their fit.

So. Start with what he knew--he was wearing half of it--and what they were working from, and those would inform what his attitude might be. What it should be, if this had been his whole life, if all they saw on the screen had always been all he knew.

This was probably not his first house, or his second, or his third. Meek wasn't in his programming, in any life, no matter how iron-shod the lessons might be. He wouldn't even be good at faking it. But he'd have learned in each place: how to look, how to sound and move and act. And just as certainly, he'd have learned other things: how not to act, and when to bow, when to scrape low or vanish for the least flicker of an impatient hand.

He'd seen that enough--albeit from the other side--to do it very well indeed. Still, wouldn't he hope it might not be needed here? Wouldn't he hang on to the fine, silly spark that maybe this once, he could stay?

And the object of that hope would be his alpha. In any life, he would put the work in. And he wouldn't give up.

Besides, in practical terms, the purpose of the game was to give his code-brother the session of his life.

The smirk slid off Clu's face almost as quickly as it came on. He ironed the quirk of his lips down into something soft, an idle non-smile, as blankly welcoming as the waitresses at the End of Line.

He didn't falter for the sharp click of the latch, for the firm patter of alpha's feet across the carpet. But they did fire his curiosity something awful. Clu could feel where he tilted his head as if to look, though there was nothing to see but the back of the blindfold, instinctively staring harder like that would somehow make him hear better. He unsuccessfully squinted down; there was no gap in the blindfold, and his code-brother was near enough that he scented him, but could not make out where exactly he might be. His skin flushed warm and prickled cold for the suspense of it, but he clung to that calm expression.

He listened very hard to the rules, found he'd already agreed to do everything in them--and wondered what counted as backtalk--and realized he was very interested in what, exactly, might impress a lord of the house, powerful and maybe even a bit spoiled, who already had everything he could ever want and damned well expected it of the omega in front of him, too.

Clu's whole head swiveled after the sound of the--what was that--firm swift something, one, two, three, soft tapping patter like a strap touching skin.

His code-brother had something in his hand. Something he was toying with. Something Clu could not see.

Still, he knew what to do.

In any world, shy Sirens did not last long.

"Yes, Master." It was a bedroom purr, trapped palms curled upward in inviting supplication.

Clu was still turning it over in the queue, working out the nature of answer honestly and what the proper shape of that command would be for a pleasure slave. How much truth might the lord of the manor actually want from his new toy?

And yet--he also took pains to assure Clu he was safe against harsh treatment, unless he earned it, and that strangers would not be handling him at random--not unless Clu did something to cause it. So. He loosened his spine, relaxed just a shade into the praise.

...He'd start with the things he could quantify.

"I'm a born slave," meaning no outside trouble and no other life to cling to, "and Master's house is my fourth place of service."

It was glitching hard to think, with the feather. Was it a feather? Was it fur? Something with soft barest touch dancing over him like that, stirring a restless hot contrail of want.

"Ah," he just managed not to squirm. "I, was, first sold when I presented." He bit his lip. "How do I put this--Master Lucillus' taste in first heats is deserved legend, but that was all he required of me." Not bitter, no: a touch wistful, with careful hunger for the soft stroke of--what was that, silk? Fur? Feather?--he arched his spine with an appreciative hum. "Mistress Julia taught me," what might interest this one, outside the chambers? "Oh, all the skills that pleased her best, and not just in the sheets--!"

Clu shivered, sighing into it like a hungry cat.

"So, if master is asking, certainly I can clean and cook, and recite several epics. I read a little, and sing, badly. Oh!" He licked his lips for it. "I can cook. Does Master care for seafood? Oysters and their reputation," with a little wriggle, low-voiced, "clams and their clever wet beards. Poached peacock--her cook was cross with me, by the end."

Which left one more.

"I thought my third house would be my last, but. Debts accrue, don't they." With a shake of his head. "And the fanciest furniture goes first."

By now it would be clear to a discerning gentleman that Clu babbled and a distinct problem with modesty--he had none. But he also hadn't given away information that could truly injure his prior masters in any way, not even when tempted with the chance.

"I have never hurt, or stolen from, or lied to anyone who owned me."

That for being teased--crisp and a little tart, and Master did not exactly ask.

a_perfect_end: head in the clouds (low whistle)
Clu sucked in a breath, nails curled sharp into his palms in search of control. Anticipation had his skin humming. Every hair on the back of his neck had prickled vertical for the absence of that light touch, almost as much as for having it. He didn't know where it would come from, or if it was coming back, or how close by his code-brother actually was.

Within arms' reach was not a useful estimate in this position.

He couldn't see, but Master could, and so Clu looked down, made himself smaller to acknowledge that displeasure without trying to guess the source.

None of these people actually existed, but the game was on. Probably, Lucillus was a shitheel, or a cheat, or played too rough with his things. From the sound of it, it could have ended with him face-up in a gutter. Clu decided he'd be grateful indeed for a tip like that. Though he would--just barely--manage to keep it to himself for now.

He was almost ready to open his mouth, to press after what Master meant by that sort of trouble, when the feather struck again.

Clu jumped for the sudden gentle flutter against his leg, nothing contrived or even voluntary about the jerk of his wrists against the cuffs. His bonds and the slither of the unheld leash set off a soft musical clash of jewelry halfway down his body. Everything was connected. Almost everything.

"Ah!" He stilled, carefully, with only the least little hiss. Allowing himself a hopeful grin, just a flicker, carefully smoothed away again. "Very good, Master. I know a trick with mussels he might like."

It was difficult to think. Solder a board! How did he fight soft touches? And what was the question?

"I--They are always the same, Master. Every 93 days. It is, day, seventy," so slowly, dragging the integer through his teeth, "s-seven."

Literal truth was easier. It also showed that his handlers knew what they were doing, and had wrapped him up with a bow.

"They--" The stroke up his thigh had him trembling, but he didn't shrink away, instead bracing his legs just a bit wider, trying to lighten the pressure while offering. "Sir, I--"

Oh. Master, or Alpha. Might he let that slide, in his quest for the truth? Clu did squirm, then.

"Master," chagrined, deferential in self-correction, "they most often leave me with devices." Because there was no world in which betas would arrange their schedule around his needs. "But, also--"

(It was too good to let go of, and he twitched in his harness for being petted.)

"I am the close friend of six other dealers known to you, who consider my heat theirs for the upkeep." Not the horror show it could be. Still precarious--for one thing, if they snapped him by playing too hard, there was always another ready and waiting. And if he fouled this up, he'd be right back in their hands. "Their medical certificates should be available to you. And if you are, asking, what it's like--"

Of course he wasn't. Not strictly. But the idea of it, the concept of focused helplessness--that might hold some interest. Clu forged ahead, gone quiet and smoky with hunger.

"How it feels to be buried in hands eager for every inch of you? To have so much company you can't have air? And still to need, to crave like water, something they can't possibly give you."

"Please, Master," he shivered forward into the touch, "teach me what you enjoy. I can't wait to learn."

Another time it might be fun to sit together and fill in the lines more thoroughly: work out what Lucillus had done, or what he was doing, that made him so awful. Explore just what Julia would have taught Clu. But these characters served their purposes for now: he made Clu grateful to have come into his present luck, with the sense he'd just squeaked past disaster, and she made him pliant and curious, but careful.

It made a good base to play from, and one that was gathering to an urgent and intense interest in his new circumstances. This was, of course, helped along by every delicate brush of sensation. Clu had no way of knowing where the next one was coming from, or when, and it shortened his breath, put a delicious shiver in him that wouldn't quite quit. Just listening to his alpha's words, focusing on and responding to his questions in a way that best fit their game, took up a share of his control.

Never mind the rest of it, not least the sharp-soft pulse of want where he was trying to rise to the occasion and just--couldn't, curled down into a snug curve by the steady pressure of the cage. It was almost like his code-brother had him firmly in hand. Certainly he had him at his mercy. It felt so good already, and he had so far to go.

Clu took a quick sharp breath and let that low note of approval wash down his spine. He focused on opening his hands--when had he clenched them?--in a bid to steady himself.

His code-brother granted their little game was diverting, warm delight on his tongue like he'd taken a sip of something good.

And Master had a question for him. The soft slither of metal was Clu's only cue that something else had changed, that his alpha must be standing in front of him. And the touches--Clu really did almost dance for him, then, a soft gasp pulled out of him on feather tips.

"I--!" Oh, oh, what would work here; he swallowed heavily, working to slow his breathing. Right now, he didn't have to imagine feeling empty, wet slit cooled to a tingle against the leather even as the sleeve in front tightened its grip.

"Oh, Master, I--" Nothing play-acted about the ache in his voice, "just, ah, just over a year."

Roughly four heats then, or five, if Master decided he should wait this one out. Not so long it was dangerous, but more than enough to drive him appreciative and starving into beta hands and keep him there. Definitely enough to make him eager for the chance at more. Ready not just to submit to anything, not just to accept however he was handled, but also eager to prove himself to his newest Master.

Who wanted to know if he had ever been used, in this system, for the purposes it asked of him.

Who wanted to know if he'd ever been bred.

The nubs of his confinement jabbed at him a little for that and he curled his toes tight in the carpet with a soft, urgent noise. An answer was expected.

"No. Mistress didn't want that part of me," he shook his head, lowered it, "but also forbade it to anyone else."

And his last house had gone the way of poor church mice. Which left one option. Clu opened his hands by sheer force of will, palms flat, beseeching.

"If you wish, Master, that's yours to do."

It was a good thing make whatever noises you like was right there in the rules, because he couldn't really hold them in anymore, from the focused whimper for being questioned to the way that his breathing had deepened, harsh and quick for such pretty promises, to a low hum for this newest possibility. How it would be, to be full with pups, flush and heavy, grown round with it? He'd be plush and sore all over, and soft with flesh trying to feed them--though they'd need a nurse for that; even omega biology had limits.

Out there? Couldn't have them. Shouldn't want them. Pretty sure he was morally obligated not to.

In here? Behind the gentle dark of the blindfold, nestled deep in the layers of their game?

Clu let out a soft whine, shifting his weight in a soft rattle of metal because he was ready to pass out just for the idea. He could feel the way that stroke rippled up every muscle in his middle from hips to chest, pooling heat in his navel and making his skin dance with the shiver of it. That had to be visible.

"Please," half entreaty. "Oh, Master, I--my maker had only sons. I should be the s-same."

Out of turn, but useful still, especially if Master were succession-minded.

Clu squirmed, pushed a harsh breath out, nodded frantically under the blindfold for every delicate, teasing suggestion his alpha made. He jumped in his cage for tiny soft touches and let out an entirely pent-up moan for the delicious, awful, slow drag of the feather, for the way it chased thwarted pleasure and hot fresh want sharp into the hollow down behind his middle.

For the first time Clu clutched at his bonds, trying to reach down that comically short lead with clawed fingers, straining to get loose and finding he couldn't. He could, of course--emergency releases existed for a reason--but that would end the game, full stop, and pack up everything they'd planned.

And he didn't nearly want free so much as he did to struggle, just enough to adapt. To overcome. To embrace his new circumstances--their new circumstances. Together.

(Just where was alpha? So much input, and not near enough data to tell Clu where it was coming from--)

He held still. He just barely held still.

He only held still for all values of still that did not include the leap of his throat, a bright hard cry of total want, or the tremor that had started deep in the muscle at the junction of his thighs.

"Hah!" Heat or not, game or not, his whole body was ready to give alpha anything he wanted to have. Clu was entirely on board with that. "Yes, Master."

He was quite literally pulled up short for that, one single tug, quick and firm on his lead. Surprise stilled him almost as much as the movement itself--and a shocked frisson of something else, just the ghost of not now, Clu.

The cadence was the same. He was well in hand, indeed.

It shot right down the mains, all his blood pounding southward even as he bowed his head. (Master told him to be quiet, and so would want action for an answer.)

He tried to stand very still for the sure, soft motion of deft questing fingers, so gentle, slid just over the core of him without dipping further inside.

This was not helped at all by a small, soft, wet noise he could barely hear; he could only guess as to the source, and his imagination was already running wild.

"Yes, Master," warmly, not having to work at all to sound as wanton as he felt. A little arch. Master did just ask him a question. Clu was just testing the test.

There was more test.

Clu shut his mouth.

The ball bag had worked a bit like a blindfold of its own, an anchoring patch of less-sensation between tickled hot spots. Until now. Even turned off, the added weight pulled a little, reminded him just how tightly he was wrapped. He bit down on a hiss of anticipation and widened his stance to try and ease the pressure.

Of course, this opened him up even more to alpha's touch--and alpha was giving him something, the firm and slightly grainy texture of silicone passed rhythmically across his slit. Clu squirmed into the touch, grateful for contact even on an angle just a little too high, and swallowing a whimper for the sudden loss of it.

Clu gasped to feel that hard weight pressed up behind him, into him. It slid neatly home, and that burned his whole face, scorched his cheeks with fascinated embarrassment: he was so ready that with a little help from alpha, he could prep himself.

Almost. There was real drag to it, a slight catch even in prepared, eager flesh. That wasn't going to fit. That wouldn't--oh.

It fit.

It fit, and it fit into its harness loop with a soft pop that tugged at him, hands scrabbling useless in his traces a second as he struggled to adjust. He wasn't hurt, just--very full. It was definitely there, and it would not be easy to ignore.

Another shiver climbed his spine and settled heavily in his stomach, prodding down his hooded cock: they weren't done. Clu let out a groan for it, a hard heavy note of pleasure, and closed down hungrily on the last of his alpha's offered toys.

He subsided to a soft, grateful hum for being all full, a thing they'd only tried with tongues and fingers until now. This was...more, and they were just getting started.

Clu clenched down on the dildo, the thing he had most control of, and listened thoroughly. They were simple instructions. Reasonable, even, on the surface. They'd played with permission before. Clu enjoyed it, both the way his code-brother reveled in having it and the way it stretched his own pleasure into something ecstatic.

But to play it here, as a slave, as an ornament hobbled, caged, and arranged to suit his Master's pleasure?

A thrill clenched in his guts, chased with hot, harsh determination.

"Master!" Sharp, hungry, solicitous. "Yes, I understand. I'll, do my best."

He wanted to see what his limits were, too.
Date/Time: 2021-01-08 04:42 (UTC)Posted by: [personal profile] a_perfect_end
a_perfect_end: want the world (pointer)
His code-brother finished his instructions with a rumble, with a little lick of praise that glowed in Clu's skin. He grinned, sharp, and hid it just as fast--he was feeling good, but a slave would be wary, and quick to look humbled after even a minor infraction.

The bullet vibe sat heavily, kept pressure on the juncture where he entered the hood, a ridge of texture right at the bottleneck that dragged some blood back from his cock, helped him flag in a way that meant he'd be able to take a little more.

Alpha bid him kneel, lust leaching into his words, and Clu had to wipe the smirk off his face: it sounded like Master was having fun, too.

Clu almost answered back when the test started. Yes, Master was ready on his tongue--and then it dawned on him, through the gauze of growing pleasure, that it wasn't a question. Then he really smiled, tiny and sharp, and nodded instead with a hum.

Kneeling square wasn't happening--he couldn't reach a tabletop position on his own in the harness without reconfiguring it, and he'd agreed not to take it off unless they called the game: fire for red, or without prompting for an immediate emergency, which would also stop play.

No way. Not when it was getting good. If alpha wanted him all the way down there, flat on his face like a beggar, he'd just have to push him that way.

Instead Clu sat on his haunches, perched upward, too thoroughly occupied to rest his butt on his heels. It kept a slight arch in his lower back, poking in a way that made him sit forward, an open, inviting display that was part necessity.

Clu tried to listen, head tilted like it would help, hands resting flat on his own chest.

Alpha growled his pleasure, a hot, low tone he couldn't quite hold back anymore, and Clu twinged sharp in his hood. He could hear the rustling of his code-brother fishing around in the box, but it was distant under the spreading glorious ache. He pulled in a few deep, even breaths: it helped with the all-through pressure and spread the welcome current of satisfaction, the root pleasure of lacking nothing, all the way full. Certainly he was being indulged.

It felt--was safe even the right word--a deep, total comfort that had everything and nothing to do with the actual physical sensations.

Then his alpha flicked a switch, and all Clu's newfound calm slid off into a high, surprised sound held in by bitten lips.

That was different. All the way different. Kind of like getting licked, or just barely nibbled, or the gentle steady tap of fingernails; the same tingle he normally felt from the inside out being turned inward, instead, input faintly mechanical and constant as rain.

That was good. Oh, that was good. Master hadn't forbidden it, so Clu wiggled a little, gave the feeling somewhere to go other than down the aching tip of his cock.

Then his alpha turned on the butt plug.

Clu let out a yelp. He practically bounced, with a short, hard, guttural noise of pure lust, trying to get away and only succeeding in driving it further in. He wasn't hurt--he was too wet for that. Everything was very slick, moved way too easily, and felt way too good.

Master wouldn't want him blown on their first try. He moaned for it, trying to think.

Another unbidden whine escaped as he curled forward, a deliberate driving snap of his hips that rebounded amazingly, pulled out a sharp, shocked little cry. It poked, inside, nudged hard against some inner node that spangled light hot against the back of the blindfold. He gritted his teeth, feeling it slide down again, still humming away, rubbing into the delicate flesh separating it from the soft ridge of the toy trapped in between.

His cock tried to do something it could not do, and that was the strangest, most urgent sensation he'd ever experienced.

He managed to press his buzzing balls forward on his thighs, squeezing his legs together behind himself--more out of a driving need to get everything apart a bit, seeking a way to react to one thing at a time. The posture dragged his caged cock up and out, displayed without really being prompted.

"Ah!" Sounds were still on the menu, and he gave them forthright voice. "Hah!"

He shuddered. They still had so far to go.

a_perfect_end: boy this desk is interesting NOPE (en to ex)
It took him a few tries, rhythmic bobbing that left him almost panting for breath, one long throb of want all down his harness, but he got himself spread enough to better take the strain. Sure. So what if alpha was humoring him a little? He had a moment; he could do this.

The cage shivered to life around him, and Clu jumped in place with a yelp.

"Hah!"

It was closing down on him, or he was pushing up on it: his cock wanted out and could not get there, the nubs rolling against him until every beat of his own blood was like a separate touch. It was the fine sharp drag of fingernails that wouldn't press down, wouldn't hurt him, but also absolutely were not letting him up all the way.

It was so tight.

"Ah," dragging in air only to try it again, pure frustrated hunger, "aaah!"

His head rolled back, throat jumping under the leash as he shifted restlessly. There was nothing to follow, no way to keep count or really anticipate what was coming, just always more. Pleasure looped up his spine, down, back and forth, nowhere to go that something wasn't thrumming through or against him. And he couldn't quite grind down on it like he wanted, like he needed, hips driving for that last inch of pressure almost by instinct. If he bore down, even just a little, it was game over.

Then alpha snapped the last switch.

"Oh," low, rough, like it was knocked out of him. He panted, mouth open, unable to make another sound until something wavered free from down deep, and that something sounded suspiciously like

"Oh, shit."

Everything about the world they now found themselves in and their new circumstances had been unexpected. Their biology was especially strange, and Clu's own in particular. In timing his instincts, they'd relied first on arithmetic--disastrous--and then on the accurate but lengthier process of finding a specialist who would listen while also actually knowing better. And there had been a few more surprises on the way to those findings.

So, if nothing else, they were well-versed in what to look for and how to inquire when it came to his code-brother's own needs: nutrition, rest, and personal time.

Clu had even done a little--call it side reading, like that would give Fit and Fashionable! or Omega Home Journal an academic sheen. The damned things did at least know, or claim to know, what your alpha was really thinking (Try Our Quiz, 37, right across from the recipe for caramel ripple cake) and while they were, what they were, they at least gave him something to do in the waiting room.

Most of it was junk. Some of it aligned with what the professionals had to say. And some of it was just, well, stereotyping, but based on all kinds of things neither of them had known about, because they were only now experiencing it.

Clu read all of them, neatly sorted by year and then by dominant cover color, before deciding what to memorize.

When his alpha came down with not a fever, Clu had the ibuprofen out for him. When the whole apartment started to take on a strong current of ozone and sugar, Clu had nosed into the kitchen to cook eggs his favorite way. It was supposed to make him feel like he'd earned the rewards of the hunt, or something--and actual medical science agreed that solid food was better, even if they'd never get used to it in a hurry.

When his code-brother snapped at him slightly and stomped off in search of a nap, Clu let him go. He'd left out some things alpha could take and take with him, if he decided, like some water and a nice blanket. It was important to give him some space--avoid asserting in his territory.

Not least because Clu was feeling it a little, too, an undercurrent of restless want dragged to the fore by that delicious, overpowering scent.

He straightened the coffee table for the eighth time (nothing was out of place; he did it again) and slunk off to his bedroom, shedding clothes outside in, ending in just a shirt. He didn't want to let go of it, needing to rub up to something soft in a way that was far less urgent than being in heat, but no less real. He settled on the bed without having to make a nest, not exactly curled up for sleep, but not quite content. Every surface wafted alpha back to him, a breath of sea and something rich and personal, whatever it was that was just him, magnified and perfect.

He couldn't help touching, feeling himself warm and swell for it, starting to slicken. Clu rolled away from the door, his back to it, and held on to the image of his code-brother's grin, stroking idly and picturing how serene his alpha looked in repose.

...It was too bad he was asleep.

If he stayed that way, Clu might just wake him.

He was holding on so tightly that he almost didn't realize he'd made words, until he did. He whimpered, hands flown up over his mouth, not quite biting his own fingers in a frantic, roughshod hunt for control. He was moaning too hard to keep them there, nudging his fingers open again with the effort of it--to stop calling out, or to start--he wasn't sure which, only that he felt everything, so much, so good, and it was all he could do to keep any more words from leaping free of his tongue.

Of course, Master had no such restrictions, his alpha who knew, now, exactly how much Clu loved to hear from him. Who had seen and heard what this newest wrinkle in their little game was doing to him. Who could tell that caught was looping tight in his blood and still was gently nudging Clu through his paces.

Who was free to express himself however he chose, as alpha, as lord of the house, who knew his way through these things and knew better than Clu might himself everything a hungry servant starved of contact could long for.

Certainly, the thin healing scar tucked just under his collar prickled and burned for the idea, for how much he might want that chance. To give himself away, utterly, to one who would care for him in return--who might even exalt him to freedom.

Who might keep him, if they were mated.

"Ah!" Sharp, leaping off somewhere bright. "Oh, Master, please--" not quite right, not quite enough, even as he carved the title into lavish praise with his tongue, "aanh, Alpha, may I come?"

Clu growled into his tea, drained it in a final swig, and banged the gathered plates into the sink. He couldn't banish queues here. He couldn't just drop to standby or force idle while he did tasks by rote. So he was stuck loudly finishing chores while trying to think of something, anything, else except this.

He didn't know what he was feeling! But wow, was there a lot of it, and all of it had come to a boil, again, because he was thinking, again, about being mated.

The idea looked very good on paper. (He'd made diagrams. Some of them were even the kind with the little hearts, though he'd quickly destroyed those and dismissed them to the trash.)

They were good together, and not just at work--they excelled at little things like raking the yard, or big ones like...adjusting their tax profile and...distributing computing to a variety of worthy causes without leaving traces. Any task that could be broken into teamwork didn't stand a chance. And they hung out together most of the time. Some of that was this weird new world and its weird idea that he needed, or at least should have, a chaperone, but mostly it was just how easy they found it to be in each others' company. To talk, to laugh, to swap memes in the break room when they really should have been doing something else. To spend whole afternoons curled up and doing nothing, breathing lazily against each other over the dull roar of the tv.

And they enjoyed each other. Every bit of each other. On every surface in the house. Repeatedly.

So after his fourth compromising and sticky sparkly vampire princess mating-bite dream in as many heats, Clu was almost ready to just bite his code-brother, instead. Except it was a huge commitment. And they'd been working, very thoroughly, on all the permutations of consent and how important all of them were.

Just because he wanted it, didn't mean the alpha wanted it from him.

And his code-brother was the real deal: smart, kind, funny, and almost maddeningly patient, except when he was being mischievous instead. He had so much to offer someone.

Clu himself did not have those traits. He knew he didn't. Would it even be fair, to ask him for his mark?

Would his directive compel him to say yes?

...Would Clu even be able to stop himself if that turned out to be the case? And how could they live with each other, if it did?

Clu sighed and made a point of gently finishing up, carefully arranging every single dish, delicate against his urge to throw at least one. It wasn't the forks' fault he was in this mess. These thoughts were all his own. He was the one not talking about them, too far down in his own logic loops to actually say anything.

He made cocoa, instead. Sure he'd just had tea, but there was always room for more, and they almost always drank this together. Besides, it would steel his nerves.

"Hey!" Bright, pleased, a cheerful bellow calibrated to get his attention, neck craned toward the living room. "Dude! I'm making chocolate! You want?"

The most successful opening gambit in the history of conversation. His code-brother would never knew what hit him.
