#oddly found myself revistinng old au's for some reason

[macchiatosdumptruck]

Daniel being vocal during sexy times is a favorite headcanon of mine. The boy is loud when he’s getting pounded good. And his significant other loves that about him—the sweet whines, the throaty moans. The pretty whimpers they can get out of him. If they’re having semi-public sex, then they love to keep him quiet with a hand over his mouth, feel his mouth flush against their palm.

Ended up writing ficlets for lawrusso, danzen, silverusso, Lakreese, and LaBarnes, in order.

Johnny I feel like wouldn't care much if they got caught. Daniel would remind him that it's illegal. Johnny says Daniel never wants to do anything fun and that makes Daniel indignant. Okay, fine they'll fuck. But they have to be smart about it. Johnny, bless his heart, doesn't actually have much of an imagination for these sorts of things. He's not a prude. He likes what he likes and doesn't feel the need to get too crazy with it. Daniel is actually typically the kinky one. They can't decide on where they should do it or when.

Daniel complains that the allure of the idea is kind of ruined now (he had actually been getting into it but he can't let Johnny win the argument.plus he had a reputation to uphold.) And Johnny says it's all his fault anyway.

They're in the car on the way home from their date (probably some greasy spoon diner that has good milkshakes) and as they're bickering in the car a moment passes and they realize, it's actually kind of ridiculous, what's happening right then.

The sudden laughter after the build up of frustration ends with them making out in the back seat, and as Johnny works his hand into Daniel's pants he starts to smirk.

"what?" Daniel asks.

"I totally got you to put out."

Daniel slaps him in the shoulder but they end up fucking in the parking lot.

Chozen, I feel, would want to keep Daniel's noises for himself. Or at least, older, more mature Chozen would. He wouldn't want to expose his love to other people's lecherous ears. It's something beautiful, a secret for the two of them to keep.

But if he did, I imagine it's younger Chozen, in my Yakuza au, and they're in the back room of some building Sato rents out. Daniel isn't super happy with their business practices still, but he's aware it's a long game, and they've made progress. Chozen doesn't use the same tricks he used to.

His goons are a little frustrated because they like roughing people up. Look at their line of work! But Daniel has figured out that positive reinforcement works best. So when the older boy is on especially good behavior Daniel walks into his make shift office and plops himself on the boy's lap. He grabs Chozen's hands with his own and places them his own ass as he grinds into the other boy's jeans and kisses his neck.

"lock the door."

Terry has no shame so he doesn't care if everyone knows he's fucking Daniel. Besides, if they get caught, money fixes anything. It's Daniel who is embarrassed at how loud he is and Terry, depending on what sort of mood he's in either uses that to praise Daniel with hints of humiliation kink "you just can't keep your pretty mouth shut when you're getting fucked can you? You like it too much." Or degrades him "desperate sluts like you don't care who can hear them."

The way they mix degradation and praise can be a thin line. Sometimes it can even be the very same words with just a slightly different inflection.

"they know how you got all those pretty things sweet heart, now work your hips for me."

They fuck in entirely too many bathrooms, and over time Daniel has become less and less embarrassed by it. He used cry and whimper into Terry's large, broad hands. Hyper aware of each wet slap.

But now he doesn't exaggerate his noises, but he also doesn't hide them. Because Terry is right. Everyone already knows what's going on.

Maybe after a few years, or in certain situations they don't bother to make it all the way to the bathroom, or the fitting room, etc. But Daniel still can't maintain eye contact with anyone and there's definitely a very large parameter.

Look but don't touch.

They're at a funeral. Not the biggest or fanciest ever. Daniel doesn't even know the guy. He had been an army buddy of John's back in Vietnam and they had lost touch until John got the letter from a grieving wife.

John had said he would go alone, that Daniel shouldn't bother. Daniel had placed one hand on John's shoulder and told the man there was no way I hell he was letting him go alone. it's not that he thinks they're sad, even though they are. Daniel doesn't know how anyone could go to one of these and not be affected. It's not that it's sad, even though it is. It's just that, if you did it right, it was also a celebration.

It reminds everyone of the things they may let themselves forget. It reminds them to appreciate what they have, mourn for their loss, move on, and live.

Daniel knows John hides a lot of himself away. It's his way of dealing with things. He doesn't have big loud emotions. He sits with them. So John is stony faced and quietly respectful throughout the entire ceremony, wearing his old full dress uniform.

There isn't much said, Daniel knows if he pushed John to talk he would only close himself off further. Daniel finds him in an unused coat closet and closes the door after himself.

It isn't a sensual kiss, or particularly heated. Daniel approaches the man slowly, like one would approach a skittish horse. John lets him. Though he's much more still than any horse Daniel has ever seen.

Daniel cuddles himself into the older man, placing his arms around his shoulders, and gently taking John's own to circle around his waist. He leans up on his tip toes and kisses John sweet and slow.

"take me home? We can splurge on take out and watch the game?"

When later that night something in John snaps and he takes Daniel desperately against their own couch, gripping on like fate itself couldn't tear the young man away, Daniel pants out that he'll never leave. Not if John will have him.

( There's also the fact that sex is always semi public for them if they're at Daniel's apartment. John is familiar with the aggrieved faces he sees in the hallway as he leaves in the morning. The next time he sees Daniel they're walking through his building and upon passing by the girl from 4B she says "can you try to keep it down this time?"

John preens.

Daniel walks up ahead of him, mumbling out "don't get a big head about it." Although I doubt that was much of a problem after the first few months. John wants him nearby and why waste money on a place Daniel hardly stays at anymore?)

With Mike, it's set in that fake dating au that I haven't updated in forever (but will.) And Terry is renting out a room for Mike to stay in for his time in town. Terry himself has rented out a room on one side of Mike's

When Terry hears the bed springs squeak and the sound of hard breathing through the wall he smiles. Everything is going according to plan. The kid will be gone for Mike before he knows it, only for Mike to then deliver the final blow.

This should feel better right? Mike has always valued a job well done. And Terry is always sure to get his money's worth. So why do neither of them like it as much as they thought they would?
