@honkaisteinrail sent a birthday ask:

(text) Happy Birthdaaaay! (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ) I don't know if you celebrate any particular way but I wanted to say so anyway

(text) If you tell me your favorite I'll make you your own cake (❤ ω ❤)

(text) Huh, guess it is my birthday.

He sincerely lost track of time. He did that a lot.

(text) I haven’t had cake in a long time. Maybe lemon.

@svnbled:

( to cadenza ) it’s almost accidental, really. clumsy and uncertain, the way that alexios reaches out to the princess and pulls her closer, the closeness making him act on impulse and lean for a chaste kiss. only to fluster slightly and look away, worried that he had overstepped. he knew the laws of veloria after all.

She doesn't know what to do at first. With all the time they'd spent together, she trusts Alexios too much to have expected him to do anything she'd be uncomfortable with. And she hadn't been uncomfortable with the kiss, even if she didn't have the experience to know what to do with it. Normally by this point in life, she'd have started dating, but like everything else in her life, she hadn't reached that milestone as soon as she should have.

Seeing him turn away, though, she said, "Are you okay, Lex?"

@crimsonbesotted:

"I'm not from here." The drink in front of him swirls, he's barely touched it. "I'm actually from the Luofu. I came here to find my purpose. I didn't mean to end up falling for anyone and yet...." He runs a hand through his hair. "I ended up falling for you."

Gallagher had his full attention on Kaveh, his own drink sitting untouched as well. He let Kaveh’s words hang in the air for a few moments- by all account it was likely seconds, but it felt like an eternity.

“Yeah. I know you’re not a native. Because I am. You think I don’t know everyone who actually lives here?” Even if not personally, he could probably name anyone on-sight.

“I travelled the galaxy when I was younger. I was looking for somethin’, too.” A shrug as he finally turned to his drink.

“Never did. Hope you do.”

Roxy had a tendency to tag after him when they were at the same lecture, whether he was the speaker at it or not. In this case, they'd ended up sitting together, or rather, she'd come in after him, saw he had a free seat beside him and helped herself.

As they walked, he was talking about the subject they'd just heard about (robotics, and the speaker was painfully behind Ratio's own research). Something he'd said made Roxy stop, and a few steps later, he noticed and turned back.

And then her lips were on his. He stood there for the couple seconds the kiss lasted. And then, "Did that satisfy whatever idle curiosity you had?"

[ STRIPTEASE ] for neuvillette

She was certainly a sight to behold as she teased him, and once there was more skin exposed, he reached out to run a hand over it. Her shirt hand gone first, tossed aside as he pulled her closer, nearly on his lap.

"Trying to impress me, hmm?" he teased, hands wandering down her body. He was, perhaps, a bit too impatient for her to tease him for too long.

39﹕ sender is caught following receiver - to Cadenza

Despite her reservations in being alone, Cadenza actually had very little trouble navigating the Luofu without her brother or the members of the Express crew guiding her. At least, she thought she was alone until she stopped at a vendor and glanced in a mirror.

A sigh left her lips, and then a smile.

"Did you want to hang out, Mika?"

finally kissing the person you’ve been pining for . From Navia to Neuvillette :3c

Just as he'd promised, he brought Navia along the next time he traveled to the area the Hydro vishaps were roaming. It was after a trial, so though he probably should have returned to the Court of Fontaine to take care of the loose ends of the case, he preferred to take some time to relax. He'd only been told to do so by several people pretty much every time he finished a trial lately.

"As I said, the original Hydro sovereign was a vishap. So though I may be human now, they're the closest thing I have to family." He paused as they walked, seeing one of the vishaps over the hill. As they approached, he took off his gloves; probably the first time Navia had seen him anything but completely covered. His hands had a blue tinge to them.

The vishaps crowded around as soon as they saw him, and he reached out, just resting a hand on one of their heads. They were acting more like puppies than the 'vicious monsters' a lot of people thought of them as.

He turned to Navia to say something else, when she leaned right into him, pressing her lips to his. He stood there, looking stunned, for a moment. And then he leaned closer as well, an instinct to return the kiss taking over for another few moments.

"...and what was that for?"

@draconicfool:

"Wise~!" Eros gives a wave as he runs over from where he spots the taller male from the noodle shop, Lil Boo in his arms.. "Hey! I came over t' see ya, hope that ain't like- weird. I wanted t' thank ya f'er helpin' us all out th' other day." His tail wags as he gets onto the tip of his toes to kiss the other on the cheek. "Y'all really saved our skins!"

He was just stepping out of the shop when Eros approached him. He blinked once at the kiss.

“You’re welcome,” he said after a moment. “You don’t really need to thank me, though. We just like helping around the neighborhood.” That was one way to put it, anyway.

@sncwlight:

Natalee knocks on his door frame, a cup of tea in her hand. " General, i made some tea, would you like some? "

Jing Yuan was nodding off over his paperwork when she came in, and at her voice, he let out a surprised noise and lifted his head.

“Hmm? Sure.” He set the papers aside for now. “Come and join me for a while. Perhaps you can keep me awake better than all this work I have to do.”

“ In my defense, I simply do not vibe with the law. ”

Lomic had only visited a couple times since he joined the Express, but somehow, this didn't surprise him at all.

"...yes, well, despite that, we do try to stay on the correct side of the law. Or at least not bring attention to it when we don't." Says the guy who grew up in a prison but. Details.

@sncwlight:

" Wriothesley! " she calls up to him as she climbs the stairs to his office. from the tone of her voice, she seems a little upset about something.

He glanced up from the document he'd been reading, eyebrows arching as she approached. The day had actually been quieter than usual so nothing came to mind that she should be upset about.

"What's wrong?"

[veloriaharmonia]

@svnbled:

he had left for a sum of hours. left her to her own devices; no call no show no warning. it was as if he had never been there to begin with. and then suddenly he’s back. standing at her balcony window and staring up at the late night stars as if he would get an answer from them, if he looked long enough.

“… Your Highness?”

he turns to face her. he’s crying. “I don’t want to be the strong one anymore.”

break, then, child of the earth. the clay you were molded from can be remade & remodeled in an image that better suits your tastes.

break, then, child of the skies. the clouds that you breathe were not molded in a day, but granted over time, and one day you will breathe clear, and less of their smog.

break, then, child of the sea. the salt in your cries of pain would dry the fields if they did not keep the oceans turning.

break, then. “It all hurts,” his expression twists into agony, tears staining his features. “and I don’t want to hurt anymore.”

Cadenza hadn't worried when he didn't show up that day. Maybe she was naive, or maybe she was used to it. People came and went. If she worried about every single one, she would spend her entire life worrying.

It was something she did already, anyway.

As soon as she heard the title, she looked up from where she was reading to spot him. It took only a moment for her to be on her feet. He said so little, but she could tell how much it meant.

As she gently took a hand, she could feel the hurt he spoke of.

"...I'm so sorry," she finally said. She moved so that she was holding his hand in both of hers. "You don't deserve it, you know."

(KISS) for sender to leave a kiss against receiver's back.

He was up early in the morning to start work, leaving Natalee in his bed to sleep as long as she wanted. As he was standing before the mirror in the bathroom, though, scraping his fingers over the stubble he never ended up shaving, he realized she’d woken up, anyway.

“Hey, princess,” he said, watching as she approached and pressed a kiss to his bare back. “Didn’t need to wake up on my account, y’know.”

❛  you’re  such  a  tease .  ❜

"Am I?" He rose his eyebrows as he leaned even closer. Maybe he just wanted to test boundaries with someone who'd let him, or maybe he was just trolling. But he was close enough to her lips for her to feel his breath against her own. "And what are you waiting for me to do?"

{ dress-up } : one muse tries on lingerie for the other. nat and wrio. she's gonna dress up nice for his birthday :3c

He could smell the food before he even opened the door, and they'd had a good meal together. Even for Natalee's usual cooking it was special, and when she told him to wait while she went to get something, he was expecting some sort of present.

Well, he certainly considered it a present.

A grin tugged at his lips as she slipped back on his lap, wearing nothing but a skimpy set of lingerie.

"Aw, all for me?" he teased, pressing his lips to her neck.

16﹕ sender pushes receiver against a wall to kiss them - hehehe

Despite being the one who offered, Tempera hadn't actually made any effort to seek Evie out again. Of course it was hard to avoid each other in such a small space short of one or both staying in their rooms the entire time. And every time over the next day Evie saw him, she seemed to be trying to beam her thoughts into his mind. Which he happily ignored.

"Goodnight, Cady," Tempera said as Cadenza went to her room. Just as the door shut behind her, Evie left her own room, looking at him. "Good evening, Evelyn. Did you need something? I just finished having dinner with my sister; the rest of my evening is free."

There was a beat where Tempera almost thought she was going to turn back down the hall to her room. At least until the woman tugged on his long sleeve, and Tempera found himself pressed into the wall and Evie's lips on his.

He easily took control, pushing her just a little so he wasn't pressed against the wall as he returned the kiss. When she broke it off first, he rose his eyebrows. "Is that all?"
