[halfhearted]

[Early Monday morning, he woke up in someone's bed. He pieced together fairly quickly who he was from the ring and the scarring on his stomach and decided to do what any normal person would do given what the alchemist was capable of. After leaving a hasty sticky note to tell the other to keep his eyes on his SFC as soon as he's up, Vanitas left the apartment.



Everyone ordered a wake-up call via Network, right?

Well they were so very thoughtfully getting one. The SFC was propped up to get a view of an abandoned warehouse in the lower district. One that appeared to be Solf J. Kimblee was standing in front of it giving a little bit of a wave before he clapped his hands together. What appeared to be red lightning appeared just as he placed his hands against the building. There was a flash of light, and then a large explosion-

Whoops. He didn’t mean to make it that big.

There is nothing but dust, smoke, and fire. Pieces of debris were falling and eventually something hits the SFC in the right way to turn it off.]

[vanibutt]

Don't give me that tone.

_{[This still felt strange to him, but at the same time it was oddly... relaxing. Okay. Breathe. Breathe and focus. Just focus on getting the Unversed off the streets first.]}

That's easy for you to say. You've had years to get control over this.

_{[At least he'll have better control over it himself later in the week!]}

[kimbutt]

[Trying not to laugh.]

You're so cute.

[Sliding his arms around him to give him a tight hug.]

I had less then a week to get control over it. I wasn't allowed any longer.

[Rubbing his face against his hair.]

Want your ring?

[vanibutt]

You're calling yourself cute.

<sub>[And he'll keep bringing it up later! Ha!

He's no stranger to close contact with Vanitas at this point, so he allows himself to relax into the hug--returning it just as tightly, too!]</sub>

You've still had longer to adjust to it.

_{[A beat.]}

My hands are a bit bigger than yours, remember?

[kimbutt]

I'm talking about what's inside.

[Kneading along his spine. It felt odd to be missing the usual knots or tension spots.]

I can put it on your necklace.

[vanibutt]

No, I'm fairly certain you're talking about the face.

_{[He's teasing, he's teasing.]}

...Hold onto it for now. At least until tomorrow afternoon. I'd like some time to try out a few things of my own.

[kimbutt]

[Bumping his forehead against the other and then frowning.]

You're still mine.

[Because that isn't obvious without the ring.]

[vanibutt]

I know.

<sub>[He hesitates for a moment, then he leans up to press a kiss to the corner of his mouth.

That was even stranger.]</sub>

I suppose this is another way we can continue to get to know each other, hm?

[kimbutt]

Good.

[Giving him a squeeze.]

Another way of bring in each other at least.

[Smirking before he plants a kiss on his nose.]

[vanibutt]

Mm. And you'll get to deal with whatever aches decide to pop up with my body.

<sub>[Especially around the back of his neck!

Speaking of his neck, he's going to untangle himself from the hug to tug at the fabric around his body's throat to get a better look at the scarring. One could only see so much of it in a mirror.]</sub>

...I am proud of you, though. Make no mistake about that.

[kimbutt]

Maybe I should get a massage.

[He'll probably soak in the tub because he doesn't like being touched by strangers and it was still Kimblee's body. He didn't like anyone touching Kimblee.

But pretending to actually consider it.

Tilting his head away to give him a better view.]

Good.

[vanibutt]

It'd probably do some good to be honest.

_{[Vanitas pls.]}

And I still want to see how you do in person.

[kimbutt]

Hmm.

[And he's reaching up to cover Kimblee's eyes.]

How about Friday? After dinner and a movie?

[Keeping his eyes covered for the moment.]

We can even get tattoos and piercings.

[vanibutt]

...I reserve the right to refuse any design I don't like. I'd be the one stuck with it.

_{[He frowns slightly when Vanitas covers his eyes, but it's not keeping him from brushing his fingertips across the scars. They felt different in Vanitas' body.]}

You pick the movie, I pick the dinner?

[kimbutt]

Alright.

[Rubbing his nose against Kimblee's.]

That's fine. [Giving him a quick kiss on the mouth before letting go.]

Think Goldie likes doughnuts?

[vanibutt]

She probably ate the pieces you left out there by now.

_{[Nope nope, he's going to pull that hand away so he could lean up and properly kiss him. Awkward? Yeah, it's still hella awkward, but he doesn't like having his eyes covered like that.]}

Stop covering my eyes.

[kimbutt]

She is a growing cat.

[Grinning as he slid his fingers between Kimblee's.]

I'm trying to make it easier.

[Giving him another kiss.]

What are you going to do if I keep doing it?

[vanibutt]

She's getting better at stealing socks, too.

_{[That's better. He'll return the kiss, then he's putting his head back on his chest with a sigh.]}

I'd figure something out. You know me.

[kimbutt]

You're teaching her bad habits.

[Because it's totally Kimblee's fault]

Which is what makes it tempting to see.

[Rubbing circles along his spine.]

[vanibutt]

You're the one who gave her a pair of old socks as a toy, remember?

_{[They're both guilty shhhhh, Kimblee actually gave her a pair or two recently.]}

Who was the State Alchemist, hm? I still know a few transmutations to immobilize you very easily.

_{[...Oh, that spot felt nice. Kimblee sighs again and leans into Vanitas a bit more. Scratch that, it felt very nice.]} You said you wanted to celebrate, too...?

[kimbutt]

Did I?

[Oh he knows. He has seen her trotting happily with Kimblee's old socks.]

Sounds like it might be fun. [Leaning back against the wall as he continued to massage him.]

Have anything you'd like to do?

[vanibutt]

If I recall, yes.

_{[He'll have to keep this spot in mind once they're back to normal.]}

I'm open for suggestions.

[kimbutt]

And you're innocent of this?

[Pressing a kiss against the side of his head.]

It'll involve a mirror and being with a lot less on.

[Giving him a hug.]

Or we can play video games and be lazy all day.

[vanibutt]

As innocent as a school girl.

_{[He's so innocent it hurts--okay, maybe not. But he had nothing to do with starting her on the habit!]}

It's still early, you know. I didn't get the chance to finish my coffee. _{[So he'll have to nuke it--wait! No! He can use magic now! He can just heat it up like that! Look how smart he is, Vanitas.]}

Though I'm not against the latter for the time being.

[kimbutt]

I'd like to see that.

[Helping himself to just lifting the other up.]

Being lazy it is.

[Don't catch the cup on fire. Shifting his arms to get a better hold of him.]

[vanibutt]

I'm sure you would.

_{[Don't mind him as he grabs onto his shirt. He doesn't want to end up flat on his ass on the floor okay, shhhhh.]}

I'm still going out later.
