alec/noish classic bro we are two cavaliers exploring each other's body pairing lmao
honestly plenty of these r good but dealers choice between
hair-pulling/domination/toys?
if this speaks to you of course
You got it, boss!
Alec had strolled into the tent he shared with Naoise already in a foul mood. He was still full of energy and anticipation for his evening, but had gotten his hopes up and struck out at a nearby tavern.
Naoise was shirtless due to the encroaching Agustrian summer, and had just finished cleaning his saddle when Alec came in. Always the meticulous type, even when they got a night off from preparing for battle. 
“Bad luck?”
“What, is it obvious?” Alec snorted, moving to muss up Naoise’s hair, getting his hand shooed away, before slumping into his own cot. “I would have shown that village girl a good time if her uncle didn’t come in and make such a big fuss… I mean, we aren’t nobles! Who cares if we have a roll in the hay? She can always handle it with a quick trip to the apothecary later.”
“You continue to be a knight, yet hold little to no knightly virtues.” Naoise answered dryly. Alec only let him get away with it because they had to make a panicked run to the apothecary the day after they had decided to celebrate becoming full-fledged Chalphy knights in their own way. 
“Come onnn, Naoise.” Alec pouted up at his friend. “I don’t want your tits to be the only ones I ever see before I die, as nice as they are.”
Naoise hunched over and glared, but did not put his tunic back on, which Alec took as a sign of how close they’d become as friends, fuck buddies, and brothers in arms.
The other man tried to speak up. “You could always pay for a companion—”
“Where’s the romance in that?” Alec whined.
Naoise rolled his eyes, before leaning down to look through his pack. “You’re going to keep on like this until I tire you out, aren’t you?”
Alec saw a gleam of treated wood, and gave his dear friend an innocent grin. “Ehehe. Guilty.”
They had done this enough times that Alec could help Naoise get into the harness snug in place and fit the wooden toy into the proper position. Alec took his oil and began to prepare himself while sucking on the helper as Naoise observed and gave instruction. Alec could smell the heady scent coming from the other man’s cunt, and could tell Naoise was more excited than he was letting on. 
Alec had removed his head wrap, and Naoise curled his loose hair into a tight bundle against the back of his neck, tugging him to take the toy deeper, and Alec moaned as he obliged.
No matter how much he complained, he enjoyed the firm hand Naoise gave him. It made when they got each other off all the more sweet. 
Naoise lips turned up as he slowly thrust into Alec’s mouth, hitting the back of his mouth before pulling back until the tip rested against Alec’s parted lips. 
“You’re looking ready.” Naoise said, a huskier undertone to his voice. “Get up and show me.”
“Yes, sir.” Alec said, wincing as he removed his fingers, but getting up and turning around, gasping as Naoise’s calloused thumb spread the sensitive skin around his hole.
“Mm, it’s enough.” Naoise answered, smacking one of his asscheeks before moving him back to face him and he leaned back in his cot. “You know to stop yourself if you need more.”
“Rude. Not gonna say I did a good job?” Alec answered as he slowly settled himself on Naoise’s wooden cock. It was a bit snug, at first, but Alec focused on Naoise’s hands gently rubbing his sides as he sunk down, and then he sighed. “Nn… haven’t done this in a while…”
“Yeah,” Naoise said, a little breathless himself, pink reaching his cheeks. 
Alec smiled and wrapped his arms around Naoise’s shoulders. “So, no luck for you either?” 
The pink spread.” You’re talking about this now?!”
“Why not? It’s  not like we get much other time to gossip while on march—” Alec bit his lip to stop a yelp as Naoise thrusted up. “H-hey. Anyone that you got your eye on? Maybe that Nordion princess—”
Alec continued to give suggestions, even though he knew he was adding to how sore he was going to be in the saddle on the morrow. His moans were scattered with chuckling until Naoise fisted his dick and commanded Alec to “shut up and come on my dick.”
Alec, truly a good knight, couldn’t disobey a direct order. 
Naoise let Alec slump on his cot as he came down while the former loosed the harness and took out the helper, before leaning down to pick up his drawers. 
Alec frowned and reached out to touch Naoise’s bare hip. “Where are you going?”
“I have to clean it. Otherwise it’ll get rotten—”
“In a minute,” Alec urged Naoise off balance to sit back on the cot, despite the dangerous groan as it sagged under both of their weight. Alec’s swift fingers slipped down to feel damp pubic hair between Naoise’s legs. “I’m not such a scoundrel to leave a fellow knight in the reach.”
Naoise tried to stammer out that it wasn’t necessary, but as Alec’s fingers spread open his cunt to the open, heated air to the tent, he felt the flesh under him shudder as Naoise gripped his forearm, pressing his fingers in instead of away.
Alec grinned, before leaning his head forward and inhaling. It smelled like musk and sweat, and if Naoise hadn’t already given him a good fuck, that might have been enough for him to get a second wind and take Naoise there, even if they would have to run to the apothecary after.
Instead, Alec pressed two fingers into Naoise’s entrance as the latter’s folds t fluttered around them, then pressed his thumb against the crest of his folds with insistent swipes. Alec watched the muscles in Naoise’s stomach tighten as he breathed heavier and heavier, a wet patch leaking just under him while squelching noises came from his sopping wet cunt. 
“Saint Baldr, I wish my cock could feel you like this right now.” Alec murmured. “Nice and wet and warm, and just as giving as the first day I stuck it in.”
Naoise wasn’t as vocal as Alec could be during sex, and he had covered his mouth to stop anything from getting through, but Alec could feel his hips moving against his hand, urging him on. 
Alec grinned, then, in a fit of desire, he leaned down and swiped his mouth against Naoise’s mound, making a firm grunt come out of his his friend that only continued as his tongue trailed down, tasting him until Naoise’s body shuddered and his cunt clamped down on his fingers, sending out a spray of water.
Alec watched in awe, while Naoise slumped back and draped over Alec as he caught his breath.
“Hey— hey, did you— I didn’t know you could do that! Did you?”
Naoise grunted, clearly exhausted. “Alec, just stop…talking, for a minute while I gather my… everything.” 
Alec accepted that, though still felt a sense of pride that he made his comrade in arms come like that.

Naoise / ノイッシュ, Arden / アーダン, and Alec / アレク
Naoise (JP: ノイッシュ; rōmaji: noisshu; romanization: Noish) is a knight of the Grünritter who joins Sigurd in his journey in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War. He is named after the character of Naisi, called Naoise in modern Irish, from the Tragic Tale of the Sons of Uisnech, a section of the Táin Bó Cúailnge. He became the lover of Deirdre, a woman who already promised to wed Conchobar mac Nessa—the king of Ulster. They fled to Alba, that is, Scotland, to escape Conchobar's wrath, and later hid on an adjacent isle upon the Alban king learned of Deirdre's beauty. The people of Ulster dearly missed Naoise, and Conchobar gave into the populace's desires, sending Fergus mac Róich as an envoy to bring the couple back. This plan was sowed with evil from the start; soon after Naoise and Deirdre meet Conchobar, battle breaks out. By the conclusion, Naoise is dead, and Conchobar takes Deirdre to be his wife.
The character of Sigurd, being the husband of Genealogy's Deirdre, has a handful of parallels with Naoise, from his exile from Grannvale to his wife being taken by the one who plots against him. This connection is made even more direct by naming his knights after the sons of Uisnech.
That's right: Naoise had two brothers with minor roles in the story, serving as the namesakes of Sigurd's two other knights. Arden (JP: アーダン; rōmaji: Ādan) is named after the youngest of the three brothers, Ardan. That leaves Alec (JP: アレク; rōmaji: areku) to be the middle child, Ainle. Even if you don't understand Japanese, you probably can tell something is off here. And you're right: Ainle is supposed to be rendered as アンリ (rōmaji: anri)—the same name as the legendary wielder of Falchion, Anri. Likely to avoid stepping on the toes of another continent's lore, the name was changed. I do wonder why such a drastic change was made; I don't think something like アンレ (rōmaji: anre) would have been problematic.
The sons of Uisnech all fell in that conflict against Conchobar; some tellings claim they were killed simultaneously, decapitated with Naoise's sword, granted to him by the god Manannán mac Lir, or run through by a single pike. Of course, all three of these Grünritter were slain in the Battle of Belhalla.
