[It's not scolding, no matter that there's tinges of it tangled in the way he groans it out. Wryness, too, and rueful satisfaction, an amalgam of emotions that emerge with every sharp nip of Fenris' teeth against Astarion's jawline. Don't say such things, for though they thrill him to his core, he cannot deny there's a part of him that flinches as well. It's the same part of him that grimaces to see the way Astarion and his friends throw money away as if it means nothing; it's the same part of him that sneers at the idle wealth and foolishness of the aristocracy, no matter that he's in love with one in particular. It's contradictory, but isn't everyone?
And right now, with his face tucked beneath a sharp jaw and his teeth merciless as he bites little reddened marks down the line of a pale throat, Fenris doesn't care. He groans and huffs because it's an easy way to let out some of his own overwhelming feelings, his heart still singing and his adoration almost too much to bear.]
Not just any lordling.
[He knows. He knows, but Fenris insists upon the point anyway. His hand drifts down, skimming over bare skin until he finds the waistband of Astarion's pants, opening them with a deft flick of his fingers. His head tips up, his voice low as he promises:]
Only you.
[Only ever you. His fingers glide against swelling heat, knuckles brushing against velvet skin in slow greeting. From there he takes him in hand, fingers squeezing tight as he strokes him from root to crown— it's a slow start, for he isn't nearly ready to stop talking just yet.
And he wants to watch Astarion unravel beneath him.]
I'll put my tongue to you if the little lordling can tell me what kind of car he's lying in, so eager to be debauched.
[An affectionate challenge offered as he ducks his head down again, tongue tracking against the thundering pulsepoint just beneath Astarion's jaw.]
[Their world is paper; it falls apart each and every day in new ways, brought on by the clattering of coin in different palms. Who has what— who has nothing— the fine line that separates is the exhilarating thrill, and the arrogance of those born of high bloodlines paints that would-be thrill as a sort of pretend game between children: falls from grace happen to other people, not them. Never them. It's a rollercoaster with a lap bar, a tiger that's been dosed. It's toothless (until it isn't), and yet those cyclical trains of thought are the most the lot of them ever have the luxury of feeling.
He'd call it a high, but they do that too.
And yet it's miles from this. This rush. This shiver. This squeeze of compressed gravity between them, the click of his belt buckle (unclasped) jittering across deft fingertips is deafening. He hears it in his blood, like a shudder laced with sound. Feels the dig of a knuckle here— so molten hot he shivers at first touch before the rest sinks down around him— rough against soft measures, tugging up his sanity by the root and nearly coaxing searing oblivion from a start that's far more punctuation than prelude.
His head drops back against the seat. His shoulders drag until they scrub at pitch dark leather. He groans, and his eyes roll back behind dark lashes, and he fists both hands (and every knuckle) in the lengthy fall of Fenris' pale hair, panting just to tighten both his thighs.
Gods above, he loves this game.]
....one....[catches along the back of his own tongue, fighting to wait until he's finished his response before setting itself to the lowest reaches of his lover's throat]....that I bought and paid for.
[(Somewhere in that teasing. That goading, loving push and pull of wicked meanness, there's just one missable whisper of only you let loose into the frozen air of a stagnant car. Into the smell of alcohol and sugar and long-since dried cologne, all mingled.
The places where his skin still burns with righteous longing.)]
