[Actually, it doesn't. It lets him know the truth, and that's enough to send a shiver all the way up his spine, but that's a different matter. He still wants an answer.

So just as Lucas begins to respond, David pulls back and flattens his palm against Lucas's chest to try and hold him in place against the wall. He's already proven that he hasn't got what it takes in the strength department to overpower Lucas or even cause him more than momentary discomfort with a direct blow, but it's a symbolic thing!]


I wanna hear you say it out loud. Tell me you want me.

(( They both know David doesn't have the physical strength to do much against Lucas. Drag him out of the bar, crowd him up against a wall, push him gently back when they break that heated kiss. It happens because Lucas lets it, because he values David's autonomy (especially in a matter like this one).

Still for David to pull away as quickly as he pushed in... It leaves Lucas genuinely baffled for a fraction of a second. The first thing that springs to his mind is what he told David when David discovered he's an angel: but I gave you so many clues. Obviously, in this matter, clues aren't enough. He takes a moment to nod. To David? To himself? ))


I do want you. I have for a while.

(( There. Perfectly serious. Perfectly honest. Not a drop of humor to be found. ))

[Maybe what David needed more than anything was validation, not proof. No number of clues could ever be enough to make him feel wanted. Now, though, Lucas's words glow warm and bright in his chest and bring a smile to his lips that really highlights the lingering boyishness in his features.

Was that so damn hard? he wants to say, but he resists the urge to taint this moment with any irony at all. Just this once, he'll let himself be sentimental.

That doesn't mean the moment can't include some humour, though, so David ducks in close again and murmurs:]


You're better looking, funnier, have a way better body, and he honestly smells weird. [After a pause -] And I didn't even know who he was, I swear. But you win in every category.

(( He can't stop himself from giving in to a quiet chuckle. Of course he's happy David prefers him over Lucifer. Lucas likes to think he's a little less of a peacock. And also, geez, he'd at least give someone his name before smooching them! ))

Can I call you by your real name when we're in private?
silvernaphil: (hurt by the cold)

[Is there any point in rolling his eyes when the smile on his face doesn't even waver? Probably not, but David does anyway.]

Yeah, fine. Only between us, though, I'm serious. That name comes with a rap sheet. [A statement that would probably sound self-aggrandizing from someone like David if he weren't, you know, a hacker.

David's gaze darts down to Lucas's lips, then back up to his eyes. He wants to kiss again but he wants Lucas to start it, so Mr. Hints is gonna have pick up a hint of his own this time.]

(( He really means in private. Not just some secluded little nook. Only between the two of them. Didn't he promise when David first told him that his secret was safe?

Please also note, Lucas hasn't dropped his hands from David's face since they stopped here against this wall. It's impossible not to see the way David's eyes move and to realize exactly what he wants even without him saying it.

Maybe this one little secluded nook isn't too public... If Lucas whispers it softly enough. ))


Ian, can we go back to kissing now?
silvernaphil: (how to express the emptiness)

[personal profile] silvernaphil 2025-05-26 12:07 am (UTC)(link)
[Well then, Lucas will feel David's face heat up under his palms as it flushes deep red at the sound of his name. Why the hell does that make his heart race so fast he feels dizzy? He can't stifle a startled laugh at his own reaction.]

Jeez - just kiss me already!

(( Don't mind the warm smile that pulls over his lips at David's reaction. It's only there briefly since he's just going to lean forward to shrink the distance between them until their lips are together again. This time, a little less startled, a little more controlled. ))

[There's something so romantic about the way Lucas keeps that gentle hold on David's face, cupped in both hands like he needs to be handled with care. It gets David's heart fluttering even as heat trickles down below his belly with each brush and curl of their tongues against each other. Maybe that's why Lucas didn't confirm his feelings right away...? David always framed it as a physical thing, so if Lucas needed him to understand that it was more...

Well, how was David supposed to know? No one's ever fallen for him that fast. It's as nerve-wracking as it is gratifying.

For now David just focusses on Lucas's mouth, his warm hands and the firm body under the fabric of his shirt, until eventually he has to pull away again just to catch his breath. A perfect opportunity to make this offer to the person who deserved it in the first place:]


Wanna go back to my room?

(( This time when David moves way, Lucas drops his hands. Well, he lets them fall away from David's face to his shoulders, down along his arms to takes his hands just as gently in his own. He's a little breathless as well, a hint of color resting high on his cheeks. ))

You're not going to show me a bunch of memes if I say yes, right?
silvernaphil: (i fear the question of your loneliness)

[personal profile] silvernaphil 2025-05-26 07:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Mm, no, my plan is to show you exactly what you've been missing all this time you've been playing hard to get. And that doesn't include memes.

[David's hand sneaks up under Lucas's shirt, fingertips playing along the base of his spine.]

(( Lucas breathes out a little laugh. Isn't it David who wants to see what he's been missing while Lucas was being... well, less than obvious. He'll admit to being less than obvious, but that's about it. He's about to say just that when David's fingers brush against his skin like electricity. Something in the air itself changes and all the playfulness that's usually present in Lucas's face is gone. ))

Okay. Hold on.

(( Who needs to walk to David's room when Lucas can take them there much more quickly? ))

[This time David doesn't come close to vomiting, but there's still a long moment of disorientation before he can return to what they were doing before. At least they're not - wait, did Lucas really -

- yep, they're not standing but seated right in the middle of David's bed.]


Wow, you're impatient all of a sudden. [David's wicked smile lingers right up until his mouth reclaims Lucas's yet again. He toes his shoes off the edge of the bed, then subtly starts to lean in and ease Lucas's back down onto the bed - if Lucas lets him, because he could just as easily have David on his back in a heartbeat if he's so inclined.]

(( It's a little easier to tolerate the feeling of moving through space and time after experiencing before. Even just once.

Yes, they are in David's bed. Did he want to fumble while making out all through the suite? Lucas is just getting them where they're going to end up. Right? Now don't expect him after admitting he likes David to be super serious at all. ))


What? You're the one being all big talk.
silvernaphil: (imagine me taught by tragedy)

[personal profile] silvernaphil 2025-05-28 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[Initially, David's only response is to rest a finger over Lucas's mouth with a soft shh. God, he's got a really nice mouth...

Then he ducks his head to mouth at Lucas's neck and throat, alternating between slightly parted lips and teasing flicks of tongue. All the while he keeps sneaking his fingers just under Lucas's shirt, that sudden shift in his expression right at the front of David's mind. It's both fun and unexpectedly hot to wipe the smile off Lucas's face.]
