[He's so lost in adrenaline and need that he doesn't even see the pivot coming until he's flat on his back and-- god it made the devil in him thrill at having a worthy opponent. If she wanted him under her, it wouldn't be without a fight, either. He would not go quietly.
He hefts himself up on one elbow, groping a fistful of one breast in his hand, and raking his teeth against the other in crude kisses, tongue fighting against her nipple before biting down around the areola.]
[ it doesn’t give her time to think before her gasps turn into a breathy, ecstatic shriek as his teeth close down on her—her head tilts back on reflex, eyes squeezed shut against the wash of sensation.
and then it’s her turn to shove him down into the grass by the shoulders, locking her lips onto his as she drives her hips back against him, taking his cock as hard and deep as she can as she rides him. ]
[That helpless cry on its own is nearly enough to make him come, rich and sweet and intoxicating to his ears as he sucks at the wound. But then he hits the ground with a hard grunt, hands moving to grip her arms on instinct, to wrest control-- he's trapped by her lips before he can.
With each plunge, new waves of heat and pleasure overtake him, until he's gasping for breath, voice lost to her command of his body. His back arcs, and he reaches up to grip her by a fistful of hair, clinging on tight as his body teeters over the edge. More, give him more--]
[ Every movement, every time she rolls her hips to meet him brings her closer to the edge, and she drags her hands down his chest to feel the firmness of his body, the flex of muscle—
And then he grabs her hair, and she couldn’t hold on anymore even if she wanted to. Shuddering around him, she comes, clinging to him with a strangled cry, head buried against his neck. ]
[This time, her cry destroys whatever was left of his endurance and he empties out, coming in her harder than he's ever done before. His head jerks back and he moans like an animal into the sky, going stiff from euphoric release... then melting, into an exhausted heap.
Sweat and silver hair pools around him as he pants, breathless as the slow trickle of his senses creep back to him.]
[ As she starts to wind down, she sags against him, twining fingers into his hair and nuzzling her nose against his jawline, enfolding him in her limbs. ]
[It's harder for the self-loathing to find purchase in the afterglow, with the two of them melted against each other. This felt right. He was allowed.]
Guess this must be how my dads feel. To hate being vulnerable so bad, you'd rather ruin yourself than let anyone see you feel weak. Even if all you want is t'be comforted...
That's how demons are, I think. If you're weak you... you can't hold onto anything precious. You don't deserve it. And it's only gonna cause you pain when you lose it.
Even if I know I won't lose you, I'm-- still a demon. I know it's not better t'be alone, but... it still scares me. Feeling helpless.

Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
Mmmmmm.
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
stay like this for a while
because Nero's not sure he can feel his body anymore
Weakly, he strokes her hair breathes,]
That... was......
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
[ it’s just silver-white hair everywhere at this point; she brushes some of his gently out of his face.
honestly she could stay like this forever. ]
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
I love you... so much.
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
[ she presses a soft kiss to his cheek. ]
...you’ll never have to doubt it.

Just... hold me?
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
[ everything feels right in the world again, at least for the moment. maybe this can be allowed. maybe it'll all be okay.
after a second, her feint peels off of her and just... goes to put something heavy in front of the door. ]
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
I can't believe we actually did that...
[he's both amazed and embarrassed]
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
Ye gods, me neither, but—
Well, I'd do it again, though.
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
[With a faint, tired but relieved smile,]
Um. Do you... feel better?
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
...you?
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
[He sighs quietly]
...I don't know how you live with self-loathing.
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
Mm... I didn't figure it out until not too long ago.
But at least for me... it's had a lot to do with having people I trust to hold onto, to keep me honest with myself. To keep me from giving up.
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3

Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
But—I guess that’s what having each other’s for, right?
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
Even if I know I won't lose you, I'm-- still a demon. I know it's not better t'be alone, but... it still scares me. Feeling helpless.
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
I think, probably—it's a common fear, isn't it? At least... here, where we have so precious few options in the first place.
Even I still feel like—there should have been something else I could have done. To—take more care, to not lose my mind again...
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
...At least I did better than going nuts in my first round. Really turned the table on how much I put you through, the first time...
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
I was hoping I’d do better, too, but—I feel like I put you through a lot.
Re: Day 278 Post-Betrayal 3
[He nuzzles into her with a heavy sigh, pausing before mumbling,]
I don't think I'm in a hurry t'learn how to swim now.
