Some more Carlos/Oscar - could possibly be part of this universe. 465 words. rated e.

Oscar thinks he’s going insane. 

Carlos keeps touching him in public.

Oscar wishes he could say that they are just innocent platonic touches, but his cock begs to differ.

“Oscar…” Carlos is leaning forward, to say something into his ear. They are standing on the fucking drivers parade truck, there are a million cameras and people's eyes on them. 

Oscar tries to appear unaffected, even as the truck jolts to a stop and Carlos’ hand reaches out to Oscar’s body to steady him. It makes him feel reckless.

Carlos’ hand sears through his clothes like it's branding him. Carlos laughs at something Lando says, and slings his arm over Oscar’s shoulder, heavy and familiar, and Oscar recalls the weight of Carlos’ body on top of his.

Carlos’ thumb is unconsciously stroking the side of Oscar’s neck, every movement setting his nerves alight, sending signals of desire throughout his body. He needs more.

Carlos removes his arm from around Oscar once they return to the pit lane. Oscar mourns the loss even as he’s relieved he no longer has to focus all his energy on appearing sane. 

He trails behind Lando and Carlos who are still chatting away animatedly. Carlos walking Lando (and Oscar) back to Lando’s driver room. 

Oscar hovers by the door to his room as Carlos gives Lando a quick slap on the back, a bro hug, and then waits until Lando disappears into his room.

Oscar turns and enters his room, Carlos stepping inside after him and shutting the door.

Carlos quickly crowds himself up against Oscar’s back, his body heat causing a pool of desire to form in Oscar’s body and he feels Carlos bury his face into his neck. Hands drag Oscar back against Carlos, he can feel him, hard and eager. Oscar can’t breathe, he’s heady with lust, with the need for Carlos to touch him.

“Fuck, Carlos did you really have to-” Oscar gasps but is silenced by Carlos spinning him around and whispering.

“Chitón mí amor, you will have to quiet sí? We don’t want Lando hearing you moan, that’s only for my ears.” Carlos says and Oscar rocks his body up against Carlos’ in response, urging him to make a move.

He tries to be quiet. He really does. He whines loudly as Carlos swallows his sounds, gripping the both of them, stroking them to completion. They have to be quick. It is risky, so close to lights out, but Carlos is too tempting and Oscar will always give in.

But judging from the suspicious looks Lando throws his way as they are standing waiting in the garage, he thinks he failed. 

Oscar can’t worry about that now. He’s got a race to win and then a stupid sexy Spaniard to torture later in the club.

them.

[cecropiacrown]

We’re… friends, right?

Yes, we are.

Well, I need to ask you something. As my friend.

Oh?

But—and I promise I’m not joking—I also need to ask you something as… Ju Yang.

Oh?

So I have never struggled, as some people do, with my method of cultivation. I’ve never found another person attractive in the way people describe. Aesthetically, sure, but not… not carnally. That’s never been something I’ve dealt with. I’ve never had to worry about such things.

There are plenty of people like you who also feel that way. There’s nothing wrong with that.

Ah, but… that’s not what I’ve come to ask about.

Then what?

I understand those feelings. I understand how to live my life that way. What I don’t understand… what I can’t possibly fathom… is that it could change.

Mu Qing, are you saying that—

Can such a thing change, Feng Xin? I’m dealing with—with these feelings that are so out of my realm of understanding and I just—

What is it exactly that feels different? Is it that you’re now noticing others in ways you haven’t before?

Not others.

What?

Not… not multiple others. Just one person.

Ah, I think I may understand.

Oh?

I think you may be like me, Mu Qing.

In what way?

Let me ask you a question first.

Go ahead.

This person, are you very close to them?

Ah, yes. I am.

How close?

Quite…

And when did you notice these feelings you harbor for them?

Recently. Within the past few months. But, I suspect I’ve felt this way for them much longer than even I have realized. It makes… sense, looking back at least.

I think you may indeed be like me then, Mu Qing.

Explain yourself.

Well, for me, I find that I don’t have the capacity to feel romantic or sexual feelings for others unless I have an incredibly strong bond with them. That’s not to say I feel those things for everyone I have a strong bond with, just that the bond is a prerequisite.

Oh.

Yeah. Is that what you wanted to talk about or?

Well, yes, but… but also…

[Mu Qing swallows. Feng Xin furrows his brows and leans forward.]

I've changed my cultivation.

You… you did?

I did. And that’s where I need some… advice from Ju Yang.

Mu Qing—

Listen, I have looked through scrolls about how—about how it all works and they just—weren’t helpful. At all.

A-Qing—

I need to know more about—

First, tell me how the reading material was unhelpful. Are you looking for diagrams or—

No. No, I found plenty diagrams. It’s just that the material itself wasn’t…applicable.

How so?

I could only find texts about… intimacy between two people of the opposite sex.

…

…

Oh. Oh, Mu Qing—

What? Just—stop looking at me like that, I just—

You’re interested in a man?

…

Yes.

And you changed your cultivation for him?

No, no—I did it for myself mainly. But… but also because I wish… to be able to offer myself in that way. Not because it's expected of me but because I truly wish to experience it.

And have you told him this? That you've switched cultivation methods?

Ah, it's hard to say…

Have you even told him of your affections?

No. No, I haven't.

Why not?

I… I'm not confident he feels the same for me. I could make a fool of myself. I could be ridiculed.

But you said you're quite close to him?

Yes.

Anyone you're close to wouldn't dare to mock your feelings. There's really no sense in not confessing, when truly you have nothing to lose. Either you don't confess and you never know whether your feelings are returned, or you do confess and end up with an answer either way—even if it's not the outcome you're hoping for.

Even if he doesn't reciprocate, I'm sure he will be incredibly honored to have been the subject of the great General Xuan Zhen‘s affections.

[Feng Xin smiles, a bit teasing, but still with genuine care.

Mu Qing looks… torn. ]

Mu Qing?

Yes?

Who is he?

I… I can’t say.

Mu Qing.

Feng Xin?

It’s not Pei Ming, is it?

Oh gods no! No! What are you thinking!?

Then why won’t you tell me?

…

Mu Qing… I know him, don’t I?

Yes.

Then let me vet him. Or duel with him, at the very least.

What? Duel with him?

Yes! To determine if he’s worthy of you—though I can already assure you he isn’t. Of all the men I can think of who could reasonably be your beloved… none of them deserve you in the slightest, Mu Qing.

It’s you.

…

It’s always been you, A-Xin.

Been thinking a lot recently about post-canon fengqing becoming very close friends, maybe within the first decade after canon. Mu Qing, after everything that happened, being a bit softer and more open to his friends, but especially to Feng Xin. And then Mu Qing realizing he has feelings for him... it makes me so soft 😭 so I cleaned up this dialogue and wanted to share. I might expand on it later, we'll see 🩷

the best thing about chris fleming songs is that there is never any consistent or discernible rhythm, rhyme, meter, or melody and yet they will get stuck in my head anyway

Everything stays

Right where you left it

Everything stays,

but it still changes

Ever so slightly,

daily and nightly

In little ways

When everything stays
