Thank you!
[action, february 23rd]
[Billy grins, looking unbothered by the comment, flicking the hand over Teddy's shoulder to magically get the bedroom door open. It's hardly the first time his bed's endured some of their sex-related abuse, after all, and he's been able to fix it in the past.
He suspects this might be a bit different than the times before, though, but he'd never complain about it. Better the bed than him, for one (because he knows Teddy would never hurt him, but if he needs to let loose and crack a headboard once in a while, he should be allowed), and for another... well, maybe it's a bit of an ego-boost that he can get Teddy to lose control like that. Especially when Teddy was the one with the most control over his powers out of all the Young Avengers, simply by being the one with the most experience. It's thrilling to see him lose it like that sometimes.
And if Billy's not afraid of that, why should he take it seriously?
He leans in and nibbles idly at Teddy's neck as they make their way through the room, murmuring encourages into his ear, but when they reach the door, he pauses, glances over Teddy's shoulder, and snickers quietly.]
Do you even fit through the door?
[action, february 23rd] KAY STILL HULKLING HERE
And, well, Teddy hadn't really stopped yet, and Billy's question is answered when the spikes of his shoulders brush up against the door frame. He stops, blinks, and looks over his own shoulder, seeing how the spikes already created light scratch marks in the little amount of space he was able to move.
Well. This presents a problem.]
... I guess not. [He gives a little grin, sheepish and slightly embarrassed, as he looks away from that and shifts his shoulders, the spikes starting to recede.] Maybe I should tone it down? I'm starting to get what Alice went through in Wonderland here.
[action, february 23rd] /USES IMAGINATION
Try going sideways? You have to stay Hulkling, that's the rule.
[Though if they end up breaking the door that'll put kind of a damper on the romance, since he'll have to interrupt the sexiness to fix it. His soundproofing spells won't kick in without the door closed.
Well, first time issues are to be expected. He won't let it ruin the night, which is why his smile is firmly in place, letting the bumps in the road amuse instead of annoy. He's sure that Teddy won't mind him cozying up anyway.]
[action, february 23rd]
[Nevertheless, Teddy makes his shoulders spike out to their full size once more as he turns and takes a step sideways, successfully getting through the door without scratching anything else. With Billy pressed so close to him, Teddy can feel every part of him beneath the spandex, and he lowers his head to look down at his hand as he trails his claws against Billy's back. And somehow, somehow, Teddy's touch is enough to be felt, yet not enough to tear at the fabric or scratch at his skin - he's had practice, it seems, either on his own skin or just keeping his own strength in general in mind.
There's still such a war between nervousness and excitement, seeing his own claws against Billy's costume and yet Billy's costume, all the right colors and worn like it's a second skin, and he loves it, loves the person beneath it. It's with those thoughts that Teddy moves again, back towards the bed, and ends up sitting on the edge of it, eying the front of Billy's uniform before he tilts his head up to look at his face instead. With Billy above him like this, he's got control. It's better, less nerve-wracking this way.]
[action, february 23rd]
[Billy smiles and leans in to straddle him properly, the magic fading as he lets go of his flight to rest more comfortably on his boyfriend. It feels so different already; Teddy is broader like this, waist and thighs shifted to support the bulk of his powerful upper body, and sitting on him like this requires more of a stretch. Not for the first time he's grateful for his main exercises (and Zevran's lessons here and there) making this even possible. This would be very uncomfortable if he didn't have the flexibility to back him up.
Speaking of which- he stretches, arching his back and rolling his shoulders a little, then runs his fingers up Teddy's arms, exploring each and every contour the way they never have time for in the heat of battle. Parts of Teddy that he hasn't had the opportunity to touch like this before, when after this long it's felt like they know every inch of one another's body.
It's exciting, mysterious, like the first time he'd seen his boyfriend naked and been allowed to touch him. It feels very different, yes- leathery and armored, not at all like Teddy's usual soft skin- but he doesn't mind. It's like a second skin, and Teddy's just as soft and gentle as ever underneath it all.
And even under all that armor he can still feel the tension of Teddy's body. He leans in closer, nudging the material of Teddy's scarf aside to kiss a line along his neck. He's kissed Hulkling before, but never this intimately, never getting beneath the costume.]
Okay, next rule: don't be so nervous. It's just us, T- you and me, same as always. Do what feels natural.
[action, february 23rd]
His claws trail up Billy's back, taking in the stretch and the way his back arches, how the costume moves with him and, for that matter, how thick the material is and how it feels under his claws, even as Billy says his next rule and picks up on exactly how Teddy feels.
For a second, his movements stop, before he relaxes and lets out a sigh. Even he knows that he wasn't hiding his nervousness well at all.]
Except what feels natural might get you hurt. [Even though he's being careful now, even though he's always been careful. He doesn't know his own strength sometimes, and who knows what he might do once sensations start to build up more and more.]
[action, february 23rd]
He can't think like that anymore, and he won't even entertain the notion. So he keeps on doing what he'd been doing as if Teddy hadn't even spoken up, scraping teeth and dragging his tongue along the hardened green skin, one hand wandering up his chest to toy with the oversized zipper of Hulkling's costume, the other dragging the collar down to expose more flesh to be kissed.]
Mm... remember that talk we had, when you mentioned trying some first aid? How I told you I knew you'd never really hurt me? Just think about it.
[action, february 23rd] MOAR HULKLING
And maybe... if he can't trust himself right now, maybe Billy can, and maybe Teddy can believe in that. Believe in me who believes in you and all that. Heh.
So he allows the tension in his body to relax, and he lets his large hand slide down Billy's back to caress his hip, then his thigh, and then just before the back of his knee. Even now, he can tell how thick the spandex is, knows just the right way to break through that and not Billy's skin, but he'd only do so if Billy told him to. This thing they're about to do - it will take so much trust, and it'll be such a two-way street of communication and care.]
You still amaze me a lot, you know that?
[action, february 23rd]
[Playfully dismissive, his body shifting subtly in response to the movement of Teddy's hands, letting him know just what feels good and what feels great. And Teddy knows his body well by now, where to touch and where to avoid, where to be gentle and where to manhandle. He just needs to relearn it with different-sized hands, that's all, just as Billy has to discover the sweet spots of Hulkling's body, where the armored skin is sensitive and where it might hurt to bite and claw in the throes of what they're building towards. And they've both got plenty of time for that.
First things first, though: he can't touch skin that's still covered up. The hand on Teddy's zipper starts to slide back down his chest, dragging the metal downwards with it, slowly revealing more green. He's seen Hulkling shirtless before as well, but it doesn't happen often, so he's content to take it slow and enjoy the view while he can. All those muscles built on top of one another, a broad chest at least three times the size of his own, arms that could engulf him entirely and instead comfortably box him in against the blond's body. He'd never ask Teddy to be anyone but himself, but he considers himself more than fortunate that Teddy can be two versions of himself, so he can experience this.
It's why he can't take Teddy's nervousness as seriously as he probably should; how can he be worried when this makes him feel so safe?]
[action, february 23rd]
God, it really is like their first time all over again. Well, Billy's confident enough, so it's like his first time all over again. Teddy ducks his head slightly and glances off to the side, a blush on his cheeks that can't quite be seen due to his dark skin. And with him looking away like this, he gets a good view of his shoulders, and his shirt, and, well... the problem that presents.]
I'm, ah... gonna have to shift my shoulders to get this off. [What with the huge plates being in the way and all...]
[action, february 23rd]
[Though muffled, Billy's response is immediate, one hand moving to a shoulder as if touching it will prevent the shifting from occurring. He doesn't continue his protest for a moment, still too busy trying to do all manner of naughtiness to Teddy's neck, but there's a telltale static feel in the air and a slight glow from around his fingers that might give Teddy an idea of how he plans to deal with this little problem. He's pretty much determined not to break the Hulkling image even if the situation tries to make it necessary.
Despite Teddy's agreement to go for it, Billy has a few concerns of his own- that something will happen to startle his partner, a scratch or a noise from him that might make Teddy try and shift back. That maybe he's not as okay with it as he's saying. The way he keeps jumping to changing back if they're met with a problem or inconvenience is somewhat telling, after all.
So Billy wants to give Teddy an impression of his own: as long as it takes, I accept you like this. There's a solution to every obstacle they'll face that won't involve shifting. Of that, he's certain.]
[action, february 23rd]
But when he feels that familiar static in the air, not even having to look down at Billy's fingers, Teddy lets out a quiet snort, and he shuts his eyes again to just enjoy the feel of Billy ravishing his neck. It's not really the most sensitive spot - truth be told, he isn't sure what's sensitive on Hulkling's body, other than the more obvious area that's already stirring. It's not like he's experimented with this or anything. But still, it's great, and he finds himself leaning his head to the side, letting Billy have his way, darker spots appearing where his boyfriend worries at his skin before they turn back to their more normal color, though they last longer the more Billy works at it.]
Hmmmm... what're you going to do? Zap my shirt off?
[action, february 23rd]
[He might be able to feel the smile on Billy's lips against the skin of his neck, and if he doesn't, he'll certainly see it when Billy finally pulls back, dragging the zipper further down Teddy's body and lifting both hands to part the material, easing it off his shoulders with hands accented with arching blue lights. As he slides it away, the fabric phases through Teddy's body, leaving a gentle, internal tingling that might help with the whole lack-of-sensation issue that the armor could cause. It solidifies once it's under his arm, going slack and ready to be drawn the rest of the way down whenever Billy's ready.
For the moment, however, with Teddy's chest bared, he lifts his hands to let his fingers run up and down the firm, muscled skin, leaning in once more to tease every inch with lips and tongue, searching for the spots that Teddy responds to the most. He gives a slight push as he works up and down, intent on getting Teddy onto his back so he can reach the entire span of his torso with greater ease.]
[action, february 23rd]
In fact, it feels good. He tries not to shudder thanks to the sensation, instead taking in a deeper breath and letting a quiet, breathy sound escape when he exhales. When he opens his eyes and notices Billy staring his torso down, fingers tracing along the muscles, Teddy instead darts his gaze up, that dark flush returning to his face. He didn't see any disapproval or bewilderment over the different flesh, but he still can't help being a little self-conscious about it.
Then Billy starts to press lips and teeth and tongue against him, and he's pushing him back and Teddy can't help following it, allowing his eyes to shut again once his back is against the bed, his hands to move up again to caress down the small of Billy's back, over his rear, then to the back of his thighs to grip and pull down against his hips, enough for there to be a hard, forceful sort of pressure, but not enough to be painful or uncomfortable.
He can't help it. Billy towering over him like this and pressing forward just drives him crazy.]
Hn... No doubting here. [Even his voice sounds a little rougher.]
[action, february 23rd]
He shudders, taking in a slow, shaky breath; it's always been especially arousing when Teddy takes charge like that, being normally so gentle and almost passive with everyone else, and to get him to do that when Billy had expected to be the dominant party this round?
God. Honestly, he's never gotten this hard this fast before.
It takes some effort to get his focus back, lifting his head to give the blond a heady gaze, slowly licking his lips.]
You're not, mm... getting impatient, are you...?
[action, february 23rd]
His claws slide up again, toying with the rise of flesh, and when he returns Billy's gaze he finds that his boyfriend has just as heated of a look in his eyes as he does, and it makes him let out low chuckle.]
Maybe... a little.
[But on to another matter. With Billy already aroused and straining in his costume... there's something Teddy's willing to try, something that's incredibly risky, but - he thinks he's got this. And it might make this even better... or much worse, if he doesn't do it right. But Billy trusts him, so maybe...]
Can I... tear this off?
[action, february 23rd]
So close. He's getting so close... and Teddy's getting into it more and more, now. He can feel an arousal against his own - oh god, a big one, too, in more ways than one - and it makes him shiver with delighted anticipation.
Soon. He tells his body stubbornly to be patient, but it's never been good at listening when sex is involved.]
You can do whatever you want, T. My costume, my body- I'm all yours.
[And he trusts him implicitly. There are no boundaries or limits (or even rules, despite his own words). Not tonight.]
[action, february 23rd]
His talons soothe over Billy's skin more, and he makes a subtle shift invisible to the eye that creates nerves at the end of the claws, giving him much more of a taste of what the outfit is like. Thick, durable, yet still easy enough to move in, which is a blessing in the heat of battle when twisting beyond your body's limits could save your life. Over and over his sharp nails run over the material, and it's just as Billy starts to uncover his arousal that Teddy feels confident enough to start digging his claws in. Confident and scared, yet he knows that fear is what keeps him from getting too over his head.
His thumbs snag on the costume just by Billy's hipbones and move upward, pulling the material up into the air enough to press his fingers against it, until he can feel them go through and a ripping sound escape from them. And god, just hearing that sound and seeing Billy's perfect skin underneath makes a shot of heat spread through him and go straight to his arousal. Yet despite how eager he is to get the rest of it off of him, he moves just as carefully as he did for the first tear, the task easier now that there's a starting point. As he rips into it, more of Billy's arousal can escape, until it's completely free, at which point Teddy stops and just appreciates the view, enough to get his breath quickening with want.
God. God. He can't even describe the kind of energy that's surrounding them right now.]
God, Billy, if you could see yourself...
[action, february 23rd]
And then he's free, bare and open for Teddy's perusal, and he can't help it- he leans up, hands bracing themselves on the blond's chest, arching his back in a way that he's certain will look seductive from Teddy's angle. He doesn't want to break eye contact to look at himself, but he can imagine how it must be for his boyfriend: clad in that tight black with his arousal showing, panting and blushing and-
-shit, he wants to see more of Teddy. He lets loose a breathless chuckle, moving his hands further downwards to rest just above his erection- and pressed on Teddy's, through the fabric of his uniform.]
I'm- ha ha- I'm not the one I want to be looking at, y'know...
[action, february 23rd]
Maybe, a corner of his mind speaks, maybe if he doesn't cower out of it, or Billy does, or it turns out to hurt too badly, or...
He really should stop worrying, even though it's so hard to do so. So he pushes it aside as much as he can, just lets Billy take control, now that Teddy's the one who's going to be undressed and laid bare for his boyfriend to see. Still, the nervousness coils at him again as well as the spikes of pleasure from Billy pressing his hands against him, making him let out a shaky chuckle as he shuts his eyes and fights the heat in his cheeks that he's sure would be bright and embarrassing if he were in his human form.]
Gonna - ha - have to work... ah, for it a little, B...
[But just because he's nervous doesn't mean he can't bog Billy down with it. So he rolls his hips up into Billy's hands, and he lets his own claws loosen their grip on the shredded covers to hover over his boyfriend's erection. With his eyes shut, he's more careful, allowing the back of his fingers, the flatter sides, to brush against his arousal, mostly just to get an idea of where it is, before he turns his hand over to let his claws, which was tearing at spandex and covers just a moment before, trail gently, almost infuriatingly so, along the underside, where he knows it's more sensitive.]
[action, february 23rd]
That's assuming he makes it that far, but he's determined to be optimistic today.
Eager to focus beyond his own pleasure, he finally forces his eyes open again, getting his hands moving, stroking, and dragging at the uniform, finally managing to get it - and the briefs beneath - past Teddy's hips. And- and-
There he is. Exposed and green and erect and-
....
Well.]
N... not bad, Hulkling.
[Holy crap he looks huge. And he's not, not really, and this is more or less what he expected, it's just... bigger than he's used to.
He licks his lips, his expression a mixture of nerves and anticipation. This is going to take some teamwork.
Thankfully they're very good at that.]
[action, february 23rd]
He doesn't have long to revel in it, though, as that warmth quickly gives way to another wave of heat that's most certainly embarrassment and nerves of his own, now that Billy's pulled his uniform down to uncover his erection. It's a relief in an entirely different way, but seeing Billy look as if he was not prepared and - well, honestly, neither is Teddy, and he ends up glancing down himself before he tips his head back with a groan and covers his eyes with his arm. It's not like he plans what his erection is going to look like when planning out his battle shape, god.]
You don't have to say it like that... You all right there? [The underlying question is, you still want to do this?]
[action, february 23rd]
Hmmmm.
....
Yep, he still wants to do this. So without further comment or preamble he shifts a gloved hand to wrap around Teddy's length- or at least, as much as his fingers can reach. The difference is impressive, but it's not going to stop him from exploring this part of Hulkling's body as well.]
Fine, fine. I just wasn't sure that you'd, erm... enhanced yourself when you shifted like this, so it's... good to get confirmation, I guess?
[At least now he knows what he's in for? He tries to sound as casual as he can manage, since he's certain his reaction didn't help Teddy's nerves any. But this isn't something he's ever done before - Teddy was his first and his only, so the different feel of everything is (and is going to be) a very new experience.
And he's allowed to be a little nervous, after all, even if it won't stop him. It's his ass on the line here. (Literally.)]
[action, february 23rd]
Instead, he moves his free hand to stroke Billy's thigh, though he doesn't dare move his other arm away from his eyes. Not now, not when he feels like doing so would just make him die all over again.]
It'd be, ah... kind of weird to run around with a human-sized dick as Hulkling? [Goddamn, he's even losing his hold on his language. Shape up, Teddy, come on.] I can make it... smaller, if you want. More like... you know, human me.
[action, february 23rd]
[No fuss, no argument- a simple statement in a tone that refuses to be argued with. He's doing this to accept and experience Teddy, all of Teddy, from head to toe in any form. He won't be swayed by such a little (albeit bigger) thing. He keeps stroking for a few moments, feeling for reactions with his body and watching Teddy with his eyes, pondering how to get past this new issue instead of dusting it under the carpet via shifting. If Teddy's worried he can't handle it again, and even Billy can't give him a reassuring answer without trying first... hngh...
...and now he's wondering about something else, too. So instead of attempting to explain himself, he lets it show in a different way entirely: he shifts his body back, away from Teddy's hands - something he regrets, because he still really wants to be touched, dammit, but it's necessary, both to give himself a cool down and to give his boyfriend a confidence boost. With that added space between them, he bends down and drags his tongue over the length of the blond's impressive erection, eyes closing.
....
This? This, he can definitely do.]
