Sorry, I'm away on a tea break. Leave a note and I'll get back to you when I'm done.

Romantic?

[He sputters a little, then turns his head so more of his ear is readily accessible to his boyfriend. There's a single piercing higher up, the earring like a metal cuff against his cartilage.]

Did you want to do it now or uh... wait until later?

[Gokudera's excited to wear the earrings. Sparkles aren't anything he'd be bothered wearing, especially because his ears aren't always visible. Maybe if he gets his hair cut...]

[worcestershiresauce]

I think now's perfect. We can both wear each others gifts.

[He lets his fingers trail down to the lobe, pressing a little where he's thinking of piercing those ears.]</small I got a little kit. It's nothing fancy but if we numb your ears first it should be fine. I can do that easily with my ice.

[bakudan_bambino]

Alright... in the bathroom? The kitchen? Our room?

[He feels like his heart skips a beat when he calls it 'their' room and it isn't just 'his'. Gokudera is trying not to give away how excited he is, remains calm, and maybe even a little nervous. But it's really got nothing to do with the piercings.]

[worcestershiresauce]

Bathroom. I don't know how much of a bleeder you are and I rather have an easy clean up.

[Blood doesn't bother him but he rather keep his love clean. He does let go of his ear and heads to where some of his stuff is and grabs the kit he purchased along with the earrings.]

So both on the lobe you think?

[bakudan_bambino]

The last one didn't bleed too badly.

[Gokudera remembers a slight sting, and maybe Yosano had relished the pain she'd caused him. He doesn't imagine Wrio will do anything close to that. He moves to the bathroom, putting the seat and toilet lid down to sit upon it and wait, looking at the sink and the kit.]

Yeah, one on each lobe.

[worcestershiresauce]

[The kit is a bit different than what he's used to, easier so he doesn't worry he can use it. He does take a towel to test it out on first before he does Gokudera's ear though. It's so quick that he wonders if maybe he can give himself more piercings later too. With it set up he puts it down ont he sink counter and then takes some alcohol wipes to lean Gokudera's lobes with. It's a little cold but what's colder is his fingers touching it enough to almost instantly numb his ears.]

Ready?

[bakudan_bambino]

[Gokudera sits up straight and gives a soft little hum.]

You wanna mark my ears first to make sure they'll be even?

[He then smirks as his ears are cleaned, at the way Wrio is taking such care with him.]

[worcestershiresauce]

Don't need to. I'm good at eyeballing. Might not be able to see many colors but my visions perfect.

[He says as if Gokudera knew at all this time that Wriothesley couldn't see all the colors and just gets ready to pierce the first lobe. It goes in clean and quick and he's quick to get a bit of tissue to press on the new wound to stop any possible bleeding.]

How was that 'Dera?

[bakudan_bambino]

You can't see many colors?

[Gokudera's not sure what that means or what the color of a mark may have to do with ensuring they're even.]

Stings a little, but it's not too bad.

[He takes up the new earrings, and offers one to Wrio so he can put it through the new hole in his love before it gets a chance to swell. Gokudera would rather this part go quicker, because the stinging is gone, but it will get hot an ache if it's anything like his other piercing.]

[worcestershiresauce]

Yeah...didn't I mention that before? I see everything in blues, yellows or grey.

[He takes the first earring and puts it on Gokudera, followed by his thumb and index fingers which glow for a moment as he ices the lobe with his fingers and magic, making the ear a lot colder.]

Does that help a little?

[He won't let go fo the lobe until gokudera tells him it's cold enough.]

[bakudan_bambino]

No...

[Gokudera looks confused and a bit apologetic, then the cold is at his ear and it doesn't burn but it is very cold. He tenses up a little.]

Uh- yeah...

[He lifts a hand to Wrio's wrist.]

Thanks. Wanna do the other one now?

[worcestershiresauce]

Oh..well yeah I can't really see any other colors. Like your eyes.

[When the hand touches his wrist he lets go and stops the ice.]

Yeah I can do the other ear now.

[He moves and crouches down in front of gokudera, holding his face and staring at him dead on so he can figure out where to put the other earring, staring at him in the process.]

Have I told you how cute you are today yet?

[bakudan_bambino]

Oh... you're not missing too much.

[Gokudera looks at Wrio, waiting for him to find the right place for the second ear piercing. Then he's blinking in surprise at the remark.]

Huh? We both know I can get cuter than this...

[worcestershiresauce]

I think I might be. I can't tell what colors your eyes are but they look like a strange yellow to me...still beautiful though.

[He leans in and gives Gokudera a kiss before pulling back and grabbing the gun.]

Oh you can always be cuter but still even like this I...

[He pauses and shakes his head before smiling.]

Let's do this other ear now, right?

[bakudan_bambino]

They're green... like... pale dried leaves

[He leans into the kiss and hums before turning his head to make the piercing easier.]

Ready when you are.

[worcestershiresauce]

Green, how lovely.

[He tries to picture it but can't. Even without seeing their color he knows that Gokudera's eyes are still stunning and have a lovely sparkle to them.]

You have cute ears too, now that I get to look at them up close.

[His thumb traces the other lobe, magic not yet being used but just touching him.]

Gokudera....thank you...for being with me I mean.

[bakudan_bambino]

Like matcha... close to yellow, maybe?

[Maybe if he talks tea, it'll be easier to understand. He flushes at the mention of his ears and he tries not to react. What a weird thing to find cute... even if maybe it's true.

The rubbing feels nice and the words Wrio gives to him has his heart skipping a beat in his chest. He loves him.]

The pleasure's all mine.

[worcestershiresauce]

Like matcha...

[Wriothesley just smiles and cups his boyfriends face to look closer at those eyes. Maybe if he tries harder he can see those pretty green eyes but nothing changes no matter how he looks.]

I can't see matcha's color but I'll remember that. Everytime I drink it I'll think of my cute boyfriend with the tea colored eyes.

[He leans in and kisses him again, thoughts of piercing that second ear quickly leaving.]

[bakudan_bambino]

[With Wrio getting closer, his pupils expand and that green grows dim, but the shine to his eyes seems that much more impressive. He smiles and leans to close the distance and seal that remark with a kiss. They aren't in any rush. His ear can be pierced soon, but for the moment he's enjoying kissing Wrio... thinking of how he can offer some warmth and comfort.]

[worcestershiresauce]

[The color was never what intrigued Wriothesley, it was always that little bit of fire in Gokudera's eyes. A sparkle or maybe a spark of someone fighting for everything they had. It was one of the things he liked about the teen, one of the things he first found attractive. Well that and thinking he was just cute.

The kiss is slow, not yet frenzied like some of their past ones have been. He didn't plan to do anything like this today but in the moment he can't help himself from wanting to touch his Gokudera.]

[bakudan_bambino]

[Gokudera feels safe and treasured with Wrio. They can be together and no one is getting angry at him for it, and he knows that this man sees worth where Gokudera's never seen it in himself before. It's like the more time he spends with him, the more he's encouraged to grow and accept warm, soft, tender parts of himself that have been hidden and long neglected.

The teen isn't trying to push for more, is just returning the kiss as he feels it, working his tongue against Wrio's bottom lip and pulling back to peck insistently, like he's trying to leave more kisses, not able to fully stop.]

[worcestershiresauce]

[Had Wriothesley been watching his own actions from afar he'd think himself an idiot for letting anyone in as closely as he has Gokudera. The teen couldn't stay with him even if he did never return to his own world. He was young and wriothesley was older by double his age. He'd eventually be long before Gokudera even probably showed signs of age. It was pointless from an outsiders perspective maybe but he couldn't keep denying the warmth he felt whenever he was around Gokudera. How he felt different, a softness he's never known.

Wriothesley answers the pecks with his own, his lips parting so they can deepen their kiss as he continues to rub his fingers against the softness of Gokudera's cheeks.]

[bakudan_bambino]

[The returned little pecks have Gokudera smiling, making it hard to keep up the lip-locking. When it's deepened, he makes a soft, pleased noise and moves to slip his tongue inside, offering more. Any part of him this man wants, he's welcome to.

He doesn't let just anyone get this close, and he adores him, wants him to feel the warmth that sparks when they're together. It's exciting and maybe a little scary, but he trusts Wriothesley. This man's never given him any reason not to.

But maybe they should finish up the ear-piercing and not be making out in the bathroom. Gokudera pulls back from the kiss, lips moist, and he's breathless and beaming.]

G-gonna... pierce my other ear?

[worcestershiresauce]

[The kiss is clearly an act of love and affection from both of them, only they aren't both acknowledging it. Only Gokudera is starting to. It still does affect Wriothesley and when those lips leave his he pants a bit too, eyes a little dazed and clouded over with affection and want.]

Right....the earrings..

[He takes a deep breath to clear his head and tries not to get distracted by those eyes he loves so much or the way they seem to always sparkle for him. He lines up the gun once more, practically a nearly perfect match and starts to numb his ear lobe again.]

[bakudan_bambino]

[Gokudera can hear the way Wrio is panting, and he's a merciful young man, closes his eyes and waits so as not to further distract his boyfriend. He can and will be patient for this, so he can wear the gifts Wrio got him. He wants to ask him many things, assure him of those feelings he suspects, and then his earlobe is being numbed.

He takes a little breath in, bracing for the pain whether he'll feel it or not.]
