Who: Hazel, Jae-Ha, and Ukoku
What: Jae-Ha drunkenly invited Ukoku over. Is it too late to rescind an invitation when someone's actually in your house?
When: 4/27, morning
Where: Aengus's silly temple
Warnings: I don't know why I'm allowed to rp
[ Ukoku is a shadow. A crow's shadow. A short-ish dark handsome (??) stranger, except in this case not a stranger, a vaguely repulsive silhouette of bad intentions in full regalia, with the smell of cigarette smoke and incense and malice clinging to his robe.
Jae-Ha doesn't deserve this. He's a good kid, tall and aesthetically appealing (which has nothing to do with how undeserving he is, but is interesting in that it says something about Hazel), with leggie for days and a talent for waxing poetic, a mildly surprising but undeniably loyal dead-man replacement for Gat.
(He's precious to you, he'd said to Filbert that day in the church: I'm jealous.)
It's not the first time Ukoku has wondered why people cling to other people the way they do, and it won't be the last.
Hazel doesn't deserve this either, probably, in spite of his prejudices and all the souls he's stolen and the wonderfully misguided vengeful justice he's applied. He hasn't had an easy life—but if fate is real, he was never meant to. And from what Ukoku knows of religion in the West, fate is a given and suffering is how saints are made. (Interesting: they run toward hardship, self-punishment and loathing and guilt.)
But he was invited, so Ukoku is standing at the door to Hazel's temple with a gift in his hands: a blue flower in a pot, because Jae-Ha crushed the other one (no he did not). He knocks lightly on the door. Surprise!! ]

next time: scarecrow dome
The kitchen table is nice, but he's probably too tempted to push Hazel back onto it, and that might make meals awkward, when he's trying to avoid going too far here. Instead, he decides he'll embrace some playfulness in a different way. His other hand reaches up to take Hazel's as he slips back in further steps, trying to urge him to hop off and follow along by the hand.]
Come with me, then.
great plan
Ah. Alright, he'll come with. It only takes a second to hop down from the table, squeezing Jae-Ha's fingers to get him to lead the way. Once again, leading to temptation!!]
Alright, go on.
no subject
The trip there is half of the fun, so on the stairs he stops and grabs the railing to lean down and steal another deep kiss. It's ended with a playful laugh as he continues up the stairway, pausing occasionally to squeeze his hand again or kiss him again or pretend to contemplate various rooms...
Eventually, he'll make it through one of the bedrooms to get to a balcony. He lets Hazel's hand slip away just for now, grabbing at the bar and looking out over the yard with a soft laugh. He's... really... excited!! This is fine.]
You're unbelievably cute.
no subject
Finally they reach this balcony, and Hazel slows to a stop where Jae-Ha lets go of his hand, standing there in the doorway to watch him. It's morning, it's a nice day - like yesterday, he notes, but without the hangover ruining it - and something about Jae-Ha looking out over the railing with all of that scenery behind him is captivating. Even if he's in a t-shirt. He's still so...
Hmm, he sure is in deep here. He brushes some of his hair back to hide a little of his smile at that dorky compliment, finally shuffling over to stand next to Jae-Ha. Ugh.]
Flatterer. [also, he knows.] Y'know, I didn't even know this lil balcony was here.
no subject
[He smiles at Hazel as he leans closer, bumping their shoulders together lightly.] It's a nice view, isn't it? I thought it would be nice to enjoy it with you.
no subject
I'm not thankin' ya for not usin' the door. But I do like the view, all the same.
no subject
...We could enjoy it whenever we'd like.
no subject
Could use a chair out here, then.
no subject
[For a while, until he wants to show even more affection than this again. But there's plenty of furniture just inside of the room behind them. For now, he enjoys this, leaning a little to get a better look at Hazel's face. That just makes his hair fall more into his own, but that's fine.]
There's a nice breeze.
no subject
where did he drop that ribbon, oh shit- anyway.]
That there is. Makes ya look handsome. [With hair in his face... that's fine.]
no subject
[He's joking, letting his hand that's not linked with Hazel's move away so he can touch his cheek, instead. He's turning in to face him a bit more.]
Now that you mention it, it adds even more appeal to you, as well... [stop]
no subject
You're always handsome, if I could be so bold. [yes, that's the boldest thing he's done so far, great. Tell him more about how pretty he is.]
no subject
[Two beautiful men...! Jae-Ha can't stop being like this, but even those words are soft because he's caught watching Hazel. Hm, he is pretty. He's pretty and this is cliche and it's perfect. He'll top it off by leaning down and close enough to steal a soft kiss.]
no subject
no subject
So, he'll give him the full cliche. The tenderness in this kiss, the squeezing his hand back, his other hand cupping at the side of Hazel's face before he moves it further down and closer to his ear.
After this sweet kiss has continued for long enough that he needs to break it, he lingers close enough to look into Hazel's eyes just in time for another cliche. Romantic soft spoken words, of course.]
You really are driving me crazy.
no subject
What a dork. He rocks back on his heels since he can be on tiptoe for only so long, another laugh escaping him.]
Now this is proper gentlemanly behavior. I'm gonna blush.
no subject
That certainly doesn't discourage me.
no subject
Well, just keep doin' what you're doin'...
no subject

He's definitely going to protect this with everything he has.]
