Fifty Shades of Lavender [Closed]
Who: Shiro and Dorian
Where: Lavender Town
When: Forward-tagged to February 14th
Summary: Dorian makes good on his promises
Rating: C for Cringe (and warnings for Dorian's salacious come-ons)
Log:
[If Shiro thought the radio silence on Dorian's part was an indication of his diminished intent, the pilot had another thing coming. While it was true that the mage had been avoiding contact with his intended for some time, it was certainly not for lack of interest. After their last conversation, and after plucking up his new swablu, Dorian had set out on his journey.]
[Shiro had mentioned being held back by commitments in Lavender, so Dorian would simply have to come to him.]
[It was not an easy trek, and by the end of it, he didn't feel particularly ready to meet his dashing new crush. Rather, he booked himself a room at the inn and settled himself into a shower that lasted longer than he cared to admit.]
[When he finally clambered out, finally dressed and prepped for the occasion, it was getting on in the day. He sauntered back to the Pokemon center, Viridis slithering along beside him. The Nurse on duty was his nearest target, and he all but coiled himself atop the counter as he spoke to her.]
Tell me, darling, have you seen a man name Shiro about. Dashing fellow, albeit with a bit of a... constipated look, I suppose might be appropriate.
[He batted his eyelashes and waited, either for her answer, a disgusted rejection, or perhaps something else entirely.]

[That's just so baffling. See him fuss? Why is that even remotely appealing? Seriously? All he can do is stare across the table in confusion.]
Leaf pranks aside... you're doing a pretty good job of things, as far as I'm concerned. You don't have to be so hard on yourself.
[Says the king of Hard On Himself.]
You know I'm going to say I'm sorry, right? That we're in the same boat. Because I wouldn't wish this on anybody.
no subject
[The look he was giving Dorian right now was... far less than adorable. He looked to the side sheepishly, the way a scolded child might avoid the gaze of a parent. Not exactly a dynamic he was fond of in this scenario.]
Mmm, one day you might say otherwise. I should hope not but, perhaps its best that we reserve judgement.
[A scratch at his neck, and an unsure glance in another direction. It was a discussion that should be had soon, before either of them were too committed but... the thought of Shiro's judgement was an unnerving one.]
At least there's good company, right?
no subject
[His face scrunches up at that last word. Incredulous. He's not "adorable", excuse you. He is an exhausted, blackened space dorito. It's not a judging look. It's confused. Baffled. And probably more flustered than before.]
[Whoops.]
Why do you say that? [Now there's more concern than anything. Like he's afraid for the other man, more than anything.] Look, I'm not going to throw you out or anything... if there's anything wrong, I want you to feel like you can tell me.
no subject
[And there was the look the scion was growing to adore. The screwed-up face that betrayed the fluster beneath it. Were he the type, he might have felt his heart rate pick up at the sight.]
[He swallowed down the pounding sensation in his throat.]
There are a number of topics I have noted your discomfort on, things that are quite prevalent in my homeland. It shames me to admit that once upon a time, I played a complicit role in such things.
It is... not the kind of conversation that I would like to have on our first date. I would much rather not cast a shadow of what may be precursor for the rest of our relationship.
no subject
[He's not sure how to take that. Like at all. He's not cute. He's like the opposite of cute. Or adorable. He has to take a drink of the provided water to get it off his face.]
[He's not cute, he is a tough Paladin of Voltron thank you.]
... I also think it says something about you that you're ashamed of it now. I mean. Now you know it wasn't something to be proud of. If that makes sense. I can respect that.
[Now it's time to try a smile.]
I do respect that.
And I won't push, if you don't want to talk about it right now.
no subject
[He reached out, this time fully intending to take one of his hands. This was serious, and he didn't mind showing that much. It was written in his gaze, in the smile that drained into a thin, firm line on his lips.]
I assure you, one day we can discuss these matters in full. I do not intend to hide them from you. [He lifted one of those hands, pulling it to his mouth and pressing a kiss to the back of it.] I appreciate your patience.
no subject
[Maybe on some level... he appreciates being wanted. For reasons other than driving a giant robot lion.]
I trust you on that. All of ... [Just when you think your face can't blush any harder, it suddenly does. Is it hot in here?] it...
I uh.
Glad to give it.
[This is shaping up to be a very, very interesting stay on this planet, if nothing else.]
