[It’s the start of a new year, apparently - Bailey’s been here for quite a few months now, and they have to admit it’s been nothing at all like they expected. Even turning into a monster hasn’t gone how they wanted to.
The biggest surprise so far has been Red Wine, though. They hadn’t expected that after meeting him in the music shop things would have ended up like this, in one of the oddest relationships Bailey’s ever had. Not that they’ve had many relationships before this one, but still.
They think it might be the pervasive festive feeling coupled with how much time they’ve spent together, but Bailey... Would like to see Red Wine today. They grab a bag, packing it with snacks and things they think they might need - bandages and the like - and they really hope he’s home as they make their way across the city.
They knock on the door, waiting patiently. It’s close to dusk, so hopefully he’s already awake.]
[He's home. Red Wine is used to Bailey asking before the come over, but that doesn't mean their visit isn't an entirely welcome surprise. He smiles when he answers the door, looking far comfortable and brighter than he had some months previously, and he doesn't waste any time in giving the faun a quick kiss in greeting.]
I wasn't expecting you.
[And with the full moon recently over with, he's at the best he's going to be for the next few weeks... give or take a few twinges in a few muscles.]
Come in. [And he snags Bailey's hand quite gently in his own, drawing them into the house and then closing the door behind them. He gives another, smaller smile, his eyes bright and a deep, blood red that he's become used to in the year since they changed.
His head tips, body tilting slightly as he peers down at the bag in the faun's hand.]
[Admitting it is a little embarrassing, but that is quickly overshadowed by Red Wine’s question about their bag. It’s a perfectly innocuous question! It’s understandable! And yet, here they are, getting flustered.]
Ah, just some stuff I thought might be good to have! Like bandages and some apples...
[And some other things... That Bailey is kind of regretting, but not as much as they thought they would.]
[Not just here, but anywhere he happens to be. Their relationship didn't only come as a surprise to Bailey - Red Wine had never really considered that he might embark on something serious with anyone who was so young - but what they have works very well for him. Bailey serves as something of an island of calm amidst the chaos of his own thoughts.
He raises his eyebrows slightly at the answer hev gets to his question.]
Apples? Hm. [No comment to the bandages. He knows what they're for and he still hates it, but he can't deny he's felt better since he began bowing more readily to the urges of this new form.]
[That smile on the vampire's face immediately quirks at the corners, turning into something more mischievous. He lifts the hand still held loose in his grasp up to kiss it, his lips lingering against the faun's knuckles as he looks at them.]
I see.
[He has been utterly content to go at Bailey's pace as they have explored being intimate with each other, and every time they come up with an idea of their own he is certainly all about it.]
Are the apples involved, or would you like to drop them in the kitchen first?
[Red Wine pauses, as if thinking. He lets the pause drag out for far longer than is perhaps necessary before flashing a sharp-toothed smile and tilting his head towards the kitchen.]
Come on, then.
[He could probably think of some way to involve the apples. He does, in fact, make a point of grabbing one once they're situated and he decides that the 'that' stuff is better viewed somewhere with more privacy.]
You're growing adventurous. [The comment comes casually as he leads them up the stairs.] I have to say, I'm enjoying it.
[Bailey is still inexperienced, he knows, but Red Wine still enjoys riling them up like this. There's something wholly refreshing about their innocence even now, and the way that they react to his teasing in ways that don't immediately provoke a fight.
It has yet to become exhausting to be with them, and with so many other things in this place being unendingly tiring, it's a welcome change.]
Hm, such things can be one and the same. [He muses out loud, and he turns around at the door of his bedroom to take both of Bailey's hands, stepping backwards to lead them in after him.] But you have me curious. I hope you're not going to keep me in suspense.
[They know there’s no ill intent behind the teasing, so it doesn’t bother them as much as it could. It’s more embarrassing than annoying, but... They don’t mind too much. Not when Red Wine is so good to them.
They shuffle, tail flicking, and they look down at their connected hands.]
[He steps back until the backs of his legs hit the bed, and then he sits, looking up with that smile still lingering around his expression and a cheeky glint in his eyes.]
Unless you were going for the suspense itself... which I'm sure I could work with.
[Red Wine does enjoy teasing his partner - perhaps a little too much. Their reactions are always entertaining, though the vampire is always careful not to take it too far. It wouldn't do to be ungallant, after all.]
Maybe it would be nice to keep you in suspense, huh?
[They grin down at him, dropping their bag down next to him. They open it and rummage through it for a moment, before pulling out a mess of leather straps.]
This is for me. And this...
[There are fancier dildos they could’ve gotten - so many odd bumps and ridges and knots - but they decided to keep it simple. For now.
[Not what he expected. His surprise shows clearly on his face for more than long enough for Bailey to see it, but he isn't hesitant about picking the dildo up and examining it. It's true, there are more inventive ones that could have been chosen, but why mess with something that is already tried and true?
He slides his thumb idly up the base of the thing then smooths it over the tip.]
Fascinating. [Red Wine says, and he won't deny the light stirring of excitement in the pit of his stomach.] It's been a while... but I'm not going to refuse.
[Another one of those crooked smiles is sent Bailey's way.]
[They raise an eyebrow at him. They’re not surprised at the admittance of it being a while - they know Red Wine is more experienced than them, and frankly they would’ve been more shocked if he had never been the one receiving, so to speak.
[He does find these moments of boldness attractive, and displays his appreciation by lightly gripping the front of Bailey's top and pulling them down for another kiss. This one, he lingers on, and he finishes it with a soft nip against their lower lip.]
I have no objections... but I hope you've done your research.
[The vampire sets the obnoxiously-coloured toy aside and leans back against his hands, lightly cocking his head.]
[They smile into the kiss, raising their hand to cup Red Wine’s cheek before pulling back. They laugh at the mention of “research”, shaking their head.]
Yeah, research is a good word for it.
[They straddle Red Wine, tilting their head.]
I think I’ve got the gist of it. I at least bothered to bring lube with me.
[They have to laugh, again, at all of the thought they’ve put into this.]
And I’d hope I could get you to lose your composure.
[This position is a very acceptable one, and his hands quickly move to rest against the faun's hips. He looks up at them fondly, running his fingers up beneath their top and against warm skin.
His lack of objection to this scenario is perhaps entirely evident, already lightly pressed against Bailey's thigh as they sit against him.]
If that's your aim, don't think I'll make it easy for you.
[Red Wine, already knowing very well how he reacts to such things and that it will likely not be different now, doesn't think that Bailey will be at all disappointed with the reactions they manage to get out of him.
He moves and unceremoniously tips them over onto their back, pressing a kiss against their neck (and at his favourite biting spot). His fingers brush through their hair and one fingernail scratches very gently around the base of a horn.]
[They’re very much enjoying his reactions, but they don’t think they’ve been given enough time to appreciate it. They squeak as their back hits the mattress, looking up at Red Wine.
Their eyes are wide, before they crinkle into a smirk.]
You can certainly try. I’m not going to be so easy this time.
[Which is a bold claim, but they are nothing if not determined.]
[A laugh bubbles out of him before he can hold it back.]
You have some fire in you this evening. [He comments appreciatively. While still very excited by the prospect of being pushed down into the mattress and fucked, he can't resist winding the faun up a little first. It would just make it all the more fun.
And it's easy, with his strength, to shift Bailey's taller form up the bed so they aren't hanging half off the end of it. He pushes up their clothes to bare their stomach and plants a kiss on it.]
[Somehow, it still surprises them how easy it is for Red Wine to drag them around. It’s that supernatural strength, he knows, but that doesn’t make it any less thrilling.]
I’ve been thinking about this for a while.
[It’s an easy admission, and they prop themself up on their elbow so they can watch him.]
[He glances up, enjoying the angle for a moment, then shifts himself closer with their chests almost touching.]
Too embarrassed to ask sooner? [The question doesn't really need an answer. He leans, reaches over to snag the straps with one finger and pull them nearer.]
[They reach up with the hand that’s not supporting their weight, playing with a strand of his hair. There’s a thoughtful look on his face, before they reach to pull his hair ribbon free.]
happy 2021

...Yeah, uh. There’s something I’ve been thinking about? So it’s for... That.
[Their cheeks are getting hot, and before they can second-guess themself - ]
That being sex.
[They might just be the most awkward person alive.]

[He has been utterly content to go at Bailey's pace as they have explored being intimate with each other, and every time they come up with an idea of their own he is certainly all about it.]

No, they are not, unless you really want to get creative.
[They’re going to bean him with an apple.]
So yes, kitchen first.

They’ll see what happens.]
Yeah? I don’t know if adventurous is the right word for it. [A pause.] More like... Less nervous.
[Even though they seem pretty nervous right now as they trail after him.]

It is a really pretty shade of green, though.]
Is for you.

Fascinating. [Red Wine says, and he won't deny the light stirring of excitement in the pit of his stomach.] It's been a while... but I'm not going to refuse.

Because I'll be in no state to give instructions.

Yeah, research is a good word for it.

Well, if I can’t do it this time, I’ll just have to keep trying.
no subject
He moves and unceremoniously tips them over onto their back, pressing a kiss against their neck (and at his favourite biting spot). His fingers brush through their hair and one fingernail scratches very gently around the base of a horn.]
Do I get to rile you up first?

So I’m a little eager.

Too embarrassed to ask sooner? [The question doesn't really need an answer. He leans, reaches over to snag the straps with one finger and pull them nearer.]
I can hardly wait to see you wearing this.
no subject
[They reach up with the hand that’s not supporting their weight, playing with a strand of his hair. There’s a thoughtful look on his face, before they reach to pull his hair ribbon free.]
Y’wanna skip the falling apart bit?
