her ears go bright pink when jason practically growls, and for a second she maybe pouts just a little because hey, indeed, now she doesn't want to be left out - but then jason glances over at her.
she glances at cloud, trying to see if he's fine with it, and then scoots closer and stands next to the two of them, resting her hand on jason's back and holding onto cloud's shirt with the other.
despite like, egging this on, she's now a little uncertain if she's allowed, like an idiot.]
[ give him a second he's rebooting. jason bites his jawline and there's a-- ]
Hey yourself. [ that's quieter than he means it to be, less bothered, and he's more than a little pink himself. this feels like an out of body experience but not in the usual horrifying way he has them.
he didn't forget lup was there, but something about her scooting closer and fitting in is. hm. okay, yeah, they are not deep enough in darkness to hide how red he is at this point. he stops grasping at Jason's collar but leaves his hand there (don't look at him) all while looking at her. he doesn't expect the hesitance from her. ]
... Wasn't this your idea?
[ he's embarrassed to even say it because he doesn't know what this is yet, but he uses his free hand to tug her closer to kiss her again lightly because the only thing he knows for sure is lup shouldn't be uncertain.
the rest is. whew. haha. he has no idea he wants to die a little he is not feeling any less flustered but he is trying ]
[This is so funny coming from the woman who stood back so proudly waiting for them to kiss each other.
Without any thought, he wraps his free arm around Lup's waist and pulls her in against the two of them. Affectionately, he rubs her lower back and her side. He'll also give her a kiss too, if she wants it. She has to look at him, though.
This must be... one of the week's effects, he's pretty sure. The oddest part about it, however, is... he does not... really mind this when it comes to the two of them? He doesn't mind this effect. All he does is offer a lopsided, small grin.
[well, listen, sometimes you think you are the third wheel in every relationship you've ever been in and you make your own problems. sometimes you are stupid.
she's going to say something, but cloud kisses her, and she makes a little squeaky noise instead. her grip tightens on cloud's shirt. jason's arm around her waist, his hand gently rubbing at her lower back - between that and being kissed, she is quickly realizing that this has the potential to be incredibly flustering. she is going to be embarrassed all the time forever. which is very funny for someone who initiated all of this, but here's the thing about lup - she will tease and fluster people all day long, but the second you turn it back on her she perishes.
she will take a kiss from jason, too, when she glances up at him. it's the grin on his face, it's too cute for her to resist. and then:]
It was. [she says, with a little ear flick. she is bright pink.] I'm a genius.
[ "sometimes you are stupid" describes all of them. please.
he does agree that jason's smile is cute, unfortunately, which means he's looking there when they kiss and he ducks his head a little, even redder. this all feels so weird. not a... not a bad weird but weird nonetheless. he is only 50% sure what's happening. ]
I wouldn't go that far. [ he's trying to keep the banter up like his face isn't warmer than the sun. he is managing great. ] ... Where'd this come from, anyway...?
[ a little muttered to himself but they're all holding onto each other so it's not like it's hard to hear. he doesn't even know which part of "this" he means. all of it??? ]
[They're both killing him. How has he somehow gotten his mojo back after making the initial plunge? He's such a damn Bat. The grin is still lingering on his face. He's looking at Lup being shy, then at Cloud being shy.
This warmest, stronger urge to tease them lovingly swells up in him.]
A genius, huh. [He looks expectantly at Lup for the answer to this question.] I thought you were just planning to kiss the two of us separately.
but. she does have to think about it a little, to figure out what she wants to say. she makes a face at cloud to give herself time, and then:]
No. I mean - well, maybe, but I've seen the looks you two keep shooting each other. [a beat.] ... There's something about this week that made me a little braver, I guess.
[her ear flicks.] I would, in fact, like to keep kissing both of you? But like, not separately. In fact, I would like for you both to kiss each other like that again and then kiss me, because uh, it was, pretty excellent.
[...]
Also, I guess I like you both or whatever. [her ears are red as tomatoes.]
[ a little strangled. THIS IS NEWS TO HIM??? he agreed with jason's "kiss both of us but separate" assumption, that was his too. cloud entirely missed the part of the equation that had both himself and jason also kissing. "they just did" completely missed it before that exact moment.
i mean, he squeezes lup's hand when she says she likes them, as a kind of quiet me too, but also, please, this isn't his gay awakening, it's his dumbass awakening. he's confused. ]
[Both of his brows raise. He does not deny these looks, but he is surprised and amused by her calling them out. It wasn't, like, that he was ready to jump Cloud or anything.
But like. He's got eyes. Cloud is not bad on the eyes. Shut up, leave him alone.]
You like us both or whatever.
[There's a lot of teasing in his tone, but affectionate. If she can call him out, he can call her out too. He glances at Cloud, still amused.] Sounds like you and I are going to have to kiss again. Since you keep giving me looks. [He tickles the hair at the back of Cloud's neck by wiggling his fingers in the hairline.]
[she just - laughs? she just laughs, in that totally like "oh my god you are HOPELESS" way, when cloud gives her that. god.
she also does :eyes: when jason is like oh no... guess we will have to kiss again... because she's a goblin and will not be stopped. it makes it easier for him to ignore jason teasing her because yes! she does! she's not saying anything else until they do, it's embarrassing. what if she's the only one with a crush, huh. humiliating.
... she does rub her thumb against cloud's hand, though, as acknowledgement. she hears that.]
[ please save him he's barely used to human touch and he's receiving a heck of a lot of it right now.
there's a little shudder when jason touches his neck, and he kind of looks at lup helplessly because this is her fault? hello? explain the looks? ]
I...
[ was he looking? maybe. was jason? well! apparently? it's flustering him a little too much to think about. but he does not like jason being smug and he-- did like the kissing.
(jason made fun of lup for it but he thinks "i like you both or whatever" is an incredibly bold thing to say and he is not sure he has that in him. even in affection week.) ]
... Pretty sure she said we were both giving each other looks. [ not that cloud fucking noticed, but he'll use it to his advantage anyway, tilting his chin up like a challenge before he drags jason for a kiss again. this is now a fight and he is winning, so there.
[THAT'S ALL HE WILL SAY ABOUT IT. And it's too late anyway, Cloud has decided to kiss him. Lup said she wanted them to kiss "like that" again, so he obliges and gives Cloud a deeper kiss. Even though he already bit Cloud before as retribution, he thinks it's fair if he gives Cloud some teeth back now. Is he still winning?
Lup's got a hand gripping hers and also a hand squeezing her side. It's what she gets for being present while they kiss.
Okay, Lup's turn now. She gets to pick who she wants to smooch first. THEY ARE REALLY JUST STANDING AROUND IN THE STAR ROOM KISSING OVER AND OVER.]
Definitely! [she says cheerfully, right after jason.
she watches them fight kiss, thoroughly amused. y'all, lup challenging the boys to kiss each other like a competition was a shitpost!! it's real now though, and she is living for it? she bites her lip and doesn't bother not watching this time, even though the flush has spread across her nose and cheeks. when they pull away, her ear flicks.]
Wow.
[she says, a bit dumbly. whew. being held onto like this is doing things to her brain.
a beat.] Um.
[she would kiss one of them but she's a little hot on under the collar, don't mind her.]
[ yeah, jason pulls away and cloud's licking at where he bit his mouth with a considering look, so i have no idea who is winning right now. lup, mostly. i just realized they're in a fairly dark room so his eyes are probably bright too. thanks, mako.
he turns those bright eyes to their flabbergasted ????? g... girl who they kiss?? (he'll get there) ]
Think we broke her. [ he sounds a little amused, because it's easier to pretend he is not flustered (he is) when she's looking like that ] That what you wanted to see?
[ don't taunt her like you're not learning things about yourself today strife ]
We can probably get her back working again pretty easily.
[His arm loosens around Cloud’s shoulders and slides down so he can rest a hand on the top of his chest.
Mostly so he can lean down as he tugs up on Lup’s waist. She wanted a double kiss after! This is the first of her two parter double kiss. It isn’t like the little smooch she gave him earlier. If Cloud can have a feisty kiss, Lup can also have one.]
anyway, she is a little broken, yes. she glances at cloud, intending to answer him, except jason kisses her and she squeaks, because it's not nearly as gentle as that first one. unfortunately, she's super into that; after watching cloud lick at where he was bit and jason just like, manhandling her, she is not exactly going to be demure. not that. she ever is, really.
this is definitely what could be described as feisty, as she leans up and tangles her free hand into jason's hair. enjoy the show, cloud. she's still holding his hand, unwilling to let go of him.]
[ oh. well. he did not think himself a person who enjoyed watching other people kissing at all, but again there is apparently things you learn every day? for example, sometimes the people kissing are very hot and also touching you. so maybe that is the line.
handholding can continue, that's fine, he's busy learning things about himself. ignore his hand drifting down a little from where it was hanging out jason's collar to his chest in an almost mimic. but from opposite sides.
Huh.
he really does think he gets it. wild. anyway he's mostly just staring in what is clear appreciation until they stop kissing thanks ]
[What the hell, he decides to give her a little bit of biting too. Why not. They can all have some biting.
This is heading directly into dangerous territory. They’re going to look so bad on Saturday.
He doesn’t really want to pull away much like he didn’t want to pull away from Cloud either, but he finally does so they can breathe. She still has one more hot man to kiss anyway.
He sort of snorts, pleased, then glances sidelong at Cloud to see how far he has fallen.]
[this is really dangerous territory, yeah, because jason pulls back and her eyes are all dark and lidded. it's the biting? and probably the tongue, too, that probably had something to do with it.
now that he's riled her up poor cloud is going to get kissed within an inch of his life. it's the same treatment for cloud - she slides her free hand up into cloud's hair and kisses him deeply, shifting so that she's pressed up against jason, too. she doesn't bite, this time, but it is kind of a filthy kiss, sorry about it.
this is equal opportunity, at least. all three of them get to stare dumbfounded as the other two make out like it's a competition.]
[ kissing lup is more familiar, but it's also usually not like that? so there's a small noise of surprise at the back of cloud's throat at first, his hand grasping at jason's shirt where it rested more out of grabbing whatever in surprise than actually requesting aid. gropes that pec.
but it's fine because the surprise doesn't last that long! he is a quick learner, and after the initial :o he's completely fine matching the filthy energy, trying to tug her closer by the hand he's holding. they cannot keep trying to drag each other closer while making out. they will all fall down. this is incredibly stupid. ]
[Heh. Rather than be dumbfounded, he lucked out as the last one to get to watch... so... he's pretty smug actually.
Without being distracting or disturbing, he shifts naturally so that he can squeeze Lup in between himself and Cloud. He presses forward with his hips, pinning her snuggly in place. Theirs now. One of his hands rubs down and up her waist and side encouragingly. He doesn't seem to mind Cloud's grab; it's amusing. Like Lup is giving him a run for his money.
But he does reach out to put his other hand on Cloud's side as a kind of reassurance. You got it, buddy. And since Lup is now in the middle, he dips his head down to kiss the back and curve of her neck.]
[okay, well, he puts her between them and like, yeah, her legs might actually give out and knock them all to the floor. at the very least, her shoulders loosen up when jason kisses at them, and the noise she makes into cloud's mouth is a little like a whine.
when she pulls back from cloud to breathe, she doesn't move very far away from cloud's lips at first. she just sighs, heated, and glances first at cloud, and then a little over her shoulder at jason.]
I - you know I have a room here, right? [she says, with a little delighted laugh. she maybe wiggles back against jason's hips. this is not her fault, he's right there.]
[ well. thanks jason he kind of likes the whine. she's in between both and there's no way she could knock either of them over, let's be honest. cloud's busy looking at her face when she pulls away but she says something about her room and wiggles back on jason and. well. wELL. that is kind of obvious and cloud's staring dumbfounded again.
uhhhhhhhhhh. okay yeah wait this is escalating very quickly and he leans back a little to shoot a look to jason, maybe a little panicked. it's reflexive. ]
Cloud's reaction is cute and hilarious. He unfortunately looks a little wolfish when he returns Cloud's look around Lup. But then she backs up into his lap, and he lets out a very cut-off groan of surprised in the back of his throat. The hand on her hips squeezes.
His face gets red. Terrible.]
I mean... [He's not rejecting this offer exactly. Cloud gets a lopsided grin.] You don't have to do anything with me if you don't want.
[cloud looks like a deer in headlights, and she just sort of - laughs, a little. the surprised groan from jason gets a very smug look from her, as well, which cloud gets to see better than jason will.]
You don't have to do anything you don't want. [lup hums, despite all of this.] There is plenty of me to share, and there's plenty of Jason, too, if you do want.
