tp5: kippei and shinji
Aug. 22nd, 2006 04:11 pmKippei slept hard and long, sleeping well for the first time in forever. Really sleeping, without staying half alert and aware and restless and without any of the disturbing dreams that had become so common for him. Instead he was warm and comfortable, wrapped around Shinji and everything was right where it was supposed to be. The release of so much tension left him drained, the exhaustion of the last few months catching up with him and since Shinji was here and safe he just let go, and it was a very long time before he woke up again. Slowly, which was odd, because he never woke up slowly, but he felt like he could right now, like everything around him was reassuring him that it was fine.
"Mmmm Shinji," he murmured, smiling without opening his eyes and pulling him closer. Had holding Shinji always felt this good?

Date: 2006-08-22 09:29 pm (UTC)"S'me and it's you and it's good," he murmured, sighing contentedly.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-22 09:36 pm (UTC)"Yeah it's good," Shinji murmurered, close to Kippei's ear, pushing himself up on one arm to nuzzle at Kippei's neck, enjoying having an apparently sedate Kippei all to himself. He wished they were in a clean bed, but beggers were not choosers.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-22 09:45 pm (UTC)"Mmmmm," he murmured appreciatively at Shinji's nuzzling, still without opening his eyes. Now that he could feel things again, he wanted no distractions from it.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-22 09:49 pm (UTC)"I love you, Tachibana Kippei." And if he ever tried to leave him behind again Shinji was going to chase him to the ends of the stupid universe.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-22 09:57 pm (UTC)"You know," he observed in a rough, sleepy voice, "if you're trying to wake me up you're going the wrong way about it."
no subject
Date: 2006-08-22 10:08 pm (UTC)"I think Ina missed you too. She likes grumpy things. Probably wanted someone to yell at her and shut me up so that she could yell at both of us without being interrupted." Yeah, for whatever reason, Ina liked Tachibana Kippei too. Maybe it was a Fudo thing.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-22 10:14 pm (UTC)"Why would she miss me when her boyfriend was here the whole time?" he asked dryly, and rather unfairly perhaps. It irritated him in the extreme that Yukimura had been here and he had not, and he still did not at all approve of whatever relationship there existed between him and Inanna.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 08:18 am (UTC)"Ina has a boyfriend?" And obviously it was someone Kippei didn't approve of at all. Shinji frowned, because there were a whole tonne of people who Kippei might not approve of.
"Who?" Because that person was so dead.

Date: 2006-08-23 08:27 am (UTC)"How could she be so stupid?" He frowned, because usually Ina was far from stupid.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 08:31 am (UTC)"She knows what she's doing," he said dubiously. And she did, but she knew she was doing something dangerous and he didn't know how smart that was. Still, she wasn't stupid. He didn't know what that made it. Foolhardy, perhaps.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 08:35 am (UTC)"Did you know what you were doing every time you got one of those scars on your back?"
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 08:42 am (UTC)"Yes," he said simply. After a moment he clarified, "I was doing my job." He wondered if Shinji remembered where most of those scars had come from, but then, Shinji wouldn't forget.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 08:44 am (UTC)"Who is it?" He so was not asking again.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 08:49 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 08:51 am (UTC)"Why does she do dangerous things all the time?"
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 08:53 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 08:58 am (UTC)"I don't like it."
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 09:00 am (UTC)"Neither do I. But it's her decision."
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 09:04 am (UTC)"Oh, it's not fair! She should be whimpy and ask others for advice! And then we could tell her she is insane and make her end it. Instead she's all spiffy and too cool and everyone loves her and she gets into trouble."
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 09:11 am (UTC)He wondered idly how long it would take Shinji to just guess who it was. It wasn't like he didn't know who Inanna's regular customers were, and Yukimura had been more regular than most, recently. Or perhaps not so recently, since Kippei had no idea what had been happening on the station while he was gone. It was entirely possible that the ambassador of Rikkai had not had time for the pleasure of a certain redhead's company, Kippei thought with grim satisfaction.

Date: 2006-08-23 09:22 am (UTC)"Did I go about it the right way that time? Can I get back to kissing you now?"
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 09:26 am (UTC)"Mhmmm," he agreed, not waiting for Shinji to kiss him first.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 09:32 am (UTC)"I love kissing you. That first time...all I wanted to do was kiss you again."
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 09:40 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 09:53 am (UTC)"I was so convinced you thought I was the worst kisser. I begged Ina to give me lessons, but I ended up semi-insulting her since she already taught me. I wasn't sure if she was going to kill you for calling me a bad kisser, even inadvertantly, or kill me for not learning properly!" He couldn't help smiling about it now though because somehow, the forbidden fruit had still been the sweetest taste around and it worked out brilliantly. "They need to make a vidcom that lets you kiss someone through the screen."
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 10:00 am (UTC)He tilted his head to kiss the corner of Shinji's mouth, licking at it briefly. "I thought you were the best kisser," he whispered. "Ever."
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 10:08 am (UTC)He had in fact learnt from the best kisser. Actually, sometimes Kippei sort of kissed like Inanna. That was a bit strange, but it didn't happen very often, just when Kippei was feeling playful or sappy...so rarely.

Date: 2006-08-23 10:31 am (UTC)"No one knows you're back right?" He was a little breathless when he managed to ask his question. "We could hide out here until someone figures it out." He rather liked the idea of having Kippei to himself for an indeterminate period of time.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 10:35 am (UTC)"We could," he agreed slowly. "For a little while." They needed this, he told himself, just a few days to themselves.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 10:43 am (UTC)"Just a few days for Us."
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 10:55 am (UTC)It wasn't something he could easily let go of, even for the sake of his job. Some things could wait, had waited this long and weren't likely to explode in the next few days, and he needed as much time as he could get to remind himself what Shinji felt and tasted and smelt and looked like, as much as he could to balance out all the empty days in between.
"And then we'll go home."

Date: 2006-08-23 11:06 am (UTC)"We'll manage. We could go home now, but then people would know I was home." He knew well enough that his quarters were watched too closely for him to be able to sneak in unnoticed.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 11:14 am (UTC)"I don't want the Ambassador yet."
no subject
Date: 2006-08-23 11:23 am (UTC)"No more talking," he decided, leaning down to kiss Shinji again and sliding both hands beneath his clothing, wondering absently why in the hell they were still wearing any clothes.

Date: 2006-08-23 11:46 am (UTC)"All mine," Shinji agreed, a smirk on his lips as he rolled them over and pushed Kippei down into the pillows, kissing him hard as his hands got a little more adventurous.

Date: 2006-08-25 08:15 am (UTC)"I love you too."
Shinji was tracing every scar as if making sure there weren't any new ones, and Kippei was almost amused, although he felt the urge to do the same. It was ironic, though--he hadn't been the one here where the danger was. He'd been out there by himself doing nothing, and he almost wished he did have some new scars because at least that would mean he'd accomplished something.
"It's okay," he murmured. "There's nothing new." Not on the outside, at least.
Startled, Shinji pulled back a little and stared, wide-eyed at Kippei. It didn't last long, the shock settling into fond amusement because damn, Kippei knew him a little too well if he could tell what he was doing. Not that it wasn't that obvious but still. He let his hands stroke Kippei's face then, cheeks and temples and forehead until he just held on and kissed him again because that mouth was way too damn kissable.
"You didn't meet any bandits or wild space princesses who tried to kill you when they found out you were as good as married? Sada will be so disappointed." Shinji was just incredibly relieved. Kippei was okay.
Kippei snorted. "No, I didn't meet anybody." There had been no one at all, except a perverted old ambassador from Rokkaku, and Kippei felt privately that he was worse than no one at all. Not that he'd felt like he could risk spending too much time in that vicinity, even if he'd wanted to. "I really missed you," he said softly again, pressing his hands flat against the wings on Shinji's shoulders and kissing his temple. Missed him so horribly and Shinji would never know exactly how much. Kippei wouldn't be able to tell him.
"I know..." About the same as Shinji had missed Kippei, only Shinji had had work and Ina to distract him. He couldn't begin to imagine what it was like to just have to sit down and wonder for months, with your only contact being that damn old man from Rokkaku. It hurt, thinking about Kippei being alone all that time and his hands tried to soothe a hurt that wasn't visible, stroking Kippei's side, down over his hip, repetitive actions that couldn't make anything feel better.
"I missed you too." But it wasn't the same.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-25 08:15 am (UTC)"I know." Shinji smiled then, because while they could be ridiculously different at times, in the core they were both the same; both the same soul searching for the same harbour, in each other. He let his fingers toy with Kippei's nipples, still amazed they responded to him at all, then leant down to take one in his mouth, reminding himself what it felt like, tasted like, smelt like, looked like. All the tiny things that had faded just a little without Kippei there to remind him.
Kippei slid his fingers up to tangle in Shinji's hair, forgetting everything but the moment and the perfect rightness of the way they fit together. This was life, relief and comfort and color, pleasure flooding back with a sharp rush to fill all the empty places where he'd almost forgotten, almost wanted to forget what this felt like, to be so alive and whole.
"There's nobody like you," he murmured into Shinji's skin, breathing and tasting and worshiping with hands and lips and tongue. "Never been anyone like you."
Shinji wanted to laugh at that, because there had to be plenty of mad mechanics in the world, but he couldn't say anything as hands and lips and god, that tongue, explored and told him just what Kippei thought of him, and yeah okay he definately didn't want there to be anyone else, ever, like him if it meant Kippei wanted to do this.
"You're making me hard without even trying. That's so not fair."
Kippei chuckled, a little husky himself, and kissed his shoulder again. "Mmmm. Fair is fair." It wasn't like Shinji ever had to try, either. "Every time I look at you, I want you." Because Shinji was sexy and gorgeous and fascinating and Kippei couldn't quite believe that it was possible to love anyone this much, if he hadn't been feeling it himself.
"Mmm especially when you're in uniform. They shouldnt make uniforms look that good. They know it just makes people want to jump the person wearing it, and they're not allowed to jump them! And the Ambassdor, well if they don't want him to get jumped then don't make his uniform look so damn good on you." Yeah, he was half joking, but honest to god every time Kippei put that uniform on in the morning Shinji wanted to rip it right off again, and not because he didn't like what he saw.
Kippei had no idea why Shinji thought his uniform looked 'that good', or made him want to jump him. It was a uniform, it was a job and it was slightly uncomfortable and stiff and formal and personally he didn't think it was all that attractive. But what he thought didn't really matter--it was what Shinji thought that mattered. He was very amused and tucked the information away for future reference, but since neither of them were wearing anything right now, it wasn't relevant at the moment.
"Shhh," he murmured, pulling Shinji closer and shivering at the way their naked skin slid and shifted smooth and warm against each other. "Still too much talking."
"Pfft, you're just deprived," Shinji noted, rolling his eyes and then gasping at the feel of skin on skin. He shifted so his hips were settled against Kippei's, rubbing his groin against Kippei's and gasping at the feel. "Okay, maybe we're both deprived. I should fix that. Because I'm good at fixing things..." And god, he was so talking nonsense but so would anyone with a naked Kippei under them so whatever.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-25 08:17 am (UTC)"Ahh hey!" Kippei was deliberately being hellishly distracting. Not that Shinji minded. He figured they were at the 'come now, talk later' stage since Kippei wasn't even pretending to listen anymore. Shinji gave in to it, kissing Kippei while he enjoyed that delicious friction, Kippei's hands on his arse only making him harder. He pushed a hand down between them to tease Kippei's balls, gently caressing the sack and relishing in the soft skin. Kippei was a permanent contradiction, all hard ice until you melted him and he turned into...alien Kippei, who rocked.
Kippei had never had much experience with foreplay, not being the kind of person who had sex for fun. He'd discovered with Shinji that often enough, it was almost as good as sex to just spend hours exploring each other's bodies, touching and caressing because they could. But he hadn't really connected them in his head, and as far as he was concerned too much foreplay was just teasing. Like what Shinji was doing now. He growled deep in his throat to cover up a groan, and flipped them over, finding a spot on Shinji's neck and sucking impatiently, leaving a mark. No more teasing.
"Enough," he grumbled, nuzzling the mark he'd made. "How do you want to do this?" He didn't really care who was on top, but he figured he'd let Shinji decide, so long as he did it within the next thirty seconds.
"I was on top for a reason, impatient one," Shinji pointed out, rolling them back over and reaching over to snatch lube from the bedside drawer, amazed it was even still there, considering how long he had been away. He didn't waste any time since Kippei didn't seem interested in wasting time and if Kippei wasn't waiting then no way was Shinji waiting. He nudged Kippei's knees open and found the familiar puckered hole with ease, not wasting any time sliding one finger in, testing because he was pretty damn sure Kippei hadn't done this in as long as he had, so lube was their new best friend.
"Is it okay?"
A reason? Kippei had not known there was a reason, but okay, whatever, now was good and Shinji wasn't wasting anymore time so no argument from him, at all. He let his knees fall open, sighing a little as Shinji slid his finger in, relieved to feel the stretch and burn of it after so long.
"Mhmmm," he answered, belatedly realising that Shinji had asked and just in case Shinji couldn't read his expression--eyes half closed in pleasure, mouth slightly open on a sigh of appreciation. "Still impatient," he pointed out after a minute, meaning, hurry the fuck up already. But Shinji was going to be stubborn and take his time, especially since it had been so long; Kippei did not think this was necessary but he knew better than to argue. He reached down instead to stroke himself, moving his hips a little to demonstrate that yes, he was more than okay and come on.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-25 08:18 am (UTC)"Still okay?"
Kippei was vastly amused by the reminder, knowing that Shinji would never hurt him like this, doubtful that he even could. He would have laughed, but he was too focused on the way it felt, Shinji's fingers opening him up in careful thrusts--even, for Shinji, in something of a hurry. He would have been impressed if he'd had time to think about it, but then Shinji decided he was ready, moving forward and entering easily and Kippei just let himself relax, his grip loosening and his whole body going slack as the feeling overwhelmed him, being filled and most importantly, having Shinji inside him, hot and hard and perfect. It was as close as he could get to literally pulling Shinji inside of him forever and never letting him go.
Kippei shouldn't be allowed to look at him like that and make those sounds and yet he also shouldn't be allowed to stop. Shinji groaned and carefully withdrew, pushing in and pulling out with barely restrained movements until he was sure Kippei was enjoying it just as much as he was. Then he gave up on the concept of restraint. He wrapped his fingers around Kippei's cock, rubbing and tugging in time to his own thrusts, unable to take his eyes off Kippei, sprawled out underneath him, thighs parted and Shinji's own dick sliding in and out.
"You're so damn sexy." It was almost a complaint because this really wasn't going to last long.
Kippei smirked at him, though the expression didn't last very long, quickly melting into sheer bliss. His eyes were heavy but they stayed open, fixed on Shinji who was god damn beautiful and looking at him like he was the only thing in the world and the best thing, ever. He reached up and slipped his arms around Shinji's waist, pulling him in harder and closer, groaning and muttering something that might have been words or might not, but in any case indicated his full approval. Yeah, just like that. Shinji was good at this, so damn good and Kippei never had figured out why it had ever been such a big deal for him.
Shinji bit his lip, hips moving desperately as he sprialled higher and higher, closer and closer to that state of oblivion. There was nothing like this; nothing that made him feel connected to Kippei like this while feeling so spectacularly good. He couldn't stop watching, staring down, stunned for some reason at the sight of his hand, pleasuring Kippei while his hips thrusted and his cock slid in and out right there, and it felt like that...god, he was so going to die. But he didnt want to come before Kippei because that would be sort of mean...but he couldn't help it; it was hot and tight and it was Kippei. Shinji came but was concious enough of himself to keep his hand moving, not halting in his attempts to bring Kippei over the edge with him.
Kippei was so close that he was almost surprised when Shinji came before he did, but all it took was the look on Shinji's face when he did, and Kippei was following him just as quickly, coming hard and what seemed like forever, his eyes finally closing with Shinji's expression still burned into the back of his eyelids. God. God. He was dying, this was like heaven, bright and hot and blazing, pleasure making his body shudder and dragging a low, gutteral moan from his throat.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-25 08:18 am (UTC)"I missed you more than anything." And god, that hurt, because Kippei hadn't been dead but Shinji still missed him more than he had missed his family over the years. Still missed him more than he had missed Sada, and that guilt was painful.
Kippei dragged his eyes open, hearing the hurt in Shinji's voice and reaching to comfort him, stroking his back slowly and not at first understanding. Yeah, he missed Shinji too and it had hurt, but he was back now. He frowned vaguely, replaying the words in his mind and then wincing. Ah yeah.
"I know," he whispered. He felt it too, the guilt of missing someone living more than his family that was gone forever. "So did I."
"Mmm." Shinji managed a smile because yeah, Kippei understood. He shifted, sliding off to Kippei's side and turning up his nose at the mess smeared on both of them. He tugged on Kippei's hand, not at all happy to stay where he was but not willing to move by himself.
"I want a shower. And clean sheets. And food...god, I want food."
Kippei groaned loudly and considered refusing to move, because all of his limbs felt heavy and boneless and he was pretty sure if he tried to stand he was going to fall in a heap on the floor, but he rolled over onto his side and rubbed his eyes, trying to convince them to stay open.
"Now?" he muttered in protest.
"No...I thought it would be nice to sleep in our wet mess for a few hours, and then get a shower." Shinji rolled his eyes and decided that he really didn't like being messy; not even enough to stay in bed with Kippei, so he forced himself up and wandered out into the main room. He did a quick search on Komputer, ordered some basic Fudomine Delivery and then went to the shower, turning on the hot water and climbing in immediately. If Kippei wanted to join him, yay, otherwise he could get the door when the delivery got here. Though that was a bad idea; then they would know the Ambassador was back. Shinji had to answer the door.
"Don't answer the door if someone beeps!"
Kippei flopped onto his back again and wondered how the hell Shinji thought he was going anywhere, much less to the door. He groaned softly and rubbed his face with his hands, fighting the lethargy pinning him to the bed with the urge to follow Shinji and the guilt for disappointing him, since he'd known that Shinji didn't want to go without him. Well, Kippei hadn't wanted him to go either, but that was irrelevant. Sighing heavily, he pushed himself into a sitting position and then to his feet. Sometimes, it kind of sucked that Shinji was so insistent about getting clean. But Kippei would much rather be in there with him getting clean than laying here by himself, especially now, so he blinked his eyes a few times to make sure they'd stay open and wandered into the bathroom to join Shinji in the shower. Mmmm, hot water. And wet Shinji. Okay, that was worth it.
Aha! Cleanliness wins! Shinji smirked and shifted to let Kippei into the shower with him, draping his arms over Kippei's shoulders and tipping his head back to let the water run through his hair, sighing happily at the heat and steam and the sense of dirt just burning away, washing off down the drain. Hot shower, clean, and Kippei, with food on the way.
"Life doesn't get any better than this."
Kippei agreed completely. Really great sex and Shinji and feeling totally relaxed and sated and complete for the first time in months. Life really didn't get better than this. He sighed contentedly, slipping his arms around the slender body draped against him and giving Shinji a wet, steamy kiss. I love you.
