An Exploratory Venture

[notcharming]

It's only a matter of a few months to determine that Arkady is not in his domain. What's odd is that it should have taken him a shorter amount of time than that, but there seems to be conflicting information on whether or not Arkady is dead, which is unusual at best and somewhat alarming at worst.

It doesn't seem like he ever made it to the Underworld (no one possesses the power to escape once fully there), but it's possible that he stopped along the way there and turned back. That alone isn't all that unusual. Plenty of people destined for his realm were in comas, or had near-death experiences. There were stops along the way, metaphorically speaking, before the point of no return. But what's odd about Arkady is that there's debate in what Ereuvir can sense on where he belongs.

It's not enough that he would normally do something like this, take this kind of time, but Ashley's description of his brother has him intrigued as does the bits and pieces of their story he's picked up, and how angry Ashley had seemed about Arkady being alive when he had told him. Or perhaps just disappointed? He wasn't entirely sure.

Ashley has been... complex to deal with, but immensely satisfying, and he can't help but keep wondering about the entire story, the other half. And so, he started trying to track Arkady through the world of the living.

It doesn't work, of course. He has no powers above, even with someone who perhaps needs to be below. But eventually, he's not sure why, he has the idea to hone in on Ashley's remains, which he is innately and easily able to do... and when he discovers that they're in separate places, it's almost a foregone conclusion that he would track them down.

Which brings him here. The door of a manor and an ostensibly human, ostensibly modern sort of look for himself. He doesn't have a "plan", really, but he doesn't intend to be particularly subtle, either, beyond his current appearance, which is an expensive, tailored suit in a deep shade of blue, almost black, every bit of him screaming businessman or possibly noble, despite the fact that he's unaccompanied and rather casually just knocking on the door.

Comments

"Anything, my love," Arkady wastes no time in adding a second finger, still watching Ashley and Ereuvir. He's been with Ashley enough times to know what he likes, and his long fingers touch spots on his lover's back and waist that Arkady knows he likes. Ashley's moans are like a caress to his ears, with that lovely voice of his, and having been deprived of the sound for too long. He's causing Ashley to make those noises.

The fingers inside Ashley thrust quickly, going as deeply as he can, making sure the digits scissor a few times.

Ereuvir has kept his pants, though he's shrugged out of everything else at this point, but he seems more than content to just let Ashley rub his face against him. He settles a hand on the back of Ashely's head, but it's just weight, no pressure behind it, just a tangle of his fingers in all of that glorious hair. He does raise his hips slightly, pushing into the touch, but it's lazy. He wants to be here, be a part of this, considering it's entirely his doing that has brought the two of them together and he's in no small part viciously possessive of them both, but he's possessive of them now as a set, no sense of jealousy present at all for him, and he wants to give them this, as much as he doesn't want to be left entirely out.

He leaves off kissing Arkady for the moment, since he's about to have plenty else to hold his attention, and lays back on the pillows, a better angle from which to watch.

Ashley gasps and yelps prettily as Arkady fingers him quicker and deeper. Grinding his hips back against Arkady's hand as he nuzzles his face against Ereuvir's lap, Ashley melts between them, whimpering with need. "Arkady," he whines, even as his arms tangle a little tighter around Ereuvir's waist, glad to be caught between his two lovers. "Fuck me."

[raventonmagick]

"Yes, my love," Arkady purrs. It feels like forever since he heard those words from Ashley, and he'd been convinced for such a long time that he'd only hear it in his dreams or in the lingering memories from his brother's skull. This is real, though.

Taking the fingers out of Ashley, quicker than he usually would, Arkady takes the oil again and slicks up his cock. He's eager to fuck Ashley. They have an eternity together now to rediscover on another's bodies.

The tip of Arkady's cock presses against Ashley's opening, prodding him teasingly, wanting to make Ashley squirm just a little more, while stroking long fingers down his back. It's only when Arkady becomes too eager to hold back anymore does he penetrate Ashley, sliding his cock smoothly into his beloved. A moan slips from Arkady's lips. By the Old Ones, he never thought he'd get to experience this again.

Ereuvir gathers up all of that gorgeous red hair and sweeps it to one side, neatly, making a pretty picture of the line of Ashley's back, hand curling back into the hair near the nape of his neck. He still doesn't force his head anywhere, doesn't even really hold him still, but the grip is firmer now, more present. He still shows no sign of wanting to insert himself further into this, but neither does he intend to let Ashley forget that he is there and who he is, either.

There's a pleased shift of his weight when Ashley winds his arms a bit more around him, and he can't help but smile slightly about it. He leans up again but this time it's just to reach out and tuck a strand of hair behind Arkady's ear.

"You're both lovely," the tone is maybe less sexual than it ought to be considering what they're doing, warm and sweet instead, pleased.

[raventonbeauty]

Ashley whines as Arkady teases him with just the tip, squirming back against him until Arkady slides in, filling him deeply. He gasps, trembling, as he's filled, and his fingers dig in harder around Ereuvir's waist, clinging possessively.

"At least your cock still feels the same," Ashley murmurs, a barbed compliment that comes with a moan as Arkady slides deep again, just the way Ashley likes it. He whimpers and shivers, feeling emotionally vulnerable, because he missed this so badly and he's so scared that he'll lose Arkady again, permanently this time, and the only way he knows how to deal with it is to throw up barbed defenses so that he won't get as attached and won't be as devastated if he loses Arkady again.

[raventonmagick]

Arkady almost wants to be offended by that remark, but all he can think of right now is how his cock still fits so perfectly inside Ashley. As if they were made for each other. He feels so whole again. This is no erotic dream this time, he's sure of it.

"Shall I give you even more reminders?" Putting his hands on either side of Ashley's waist, Arkady pulls out slowly, letting his lover feel every inch of his cock. He looks up when Ereuvir touches his hair, leaning into that light touch.

"Let me show you how lovely we can be, my lord."

Arkady lets his cock linger outside of Ashley just long enough to make him long for it again, before thrusting sharply back into him. This leads to Arkady getting a steady rhythm going, thrusting in and out of his beloved.

[notcharming]

"Good," he purrs back. "Please me, and I will give you everything you desire." The words are, perhaps, a bit dangerous. He knows they are binding, whether the brothers do or not. But he is an expert in exploiting his own chains in terms of his word being his bond, the phrasing is precise.

He moves to cradle Ashley's head instead, pulling him gently up out of his lap, to watch the expression on his face while Arkady fucks him in earnest,

"Tell me how good he feels," he murmurs, "Convince me I should let him do the same to me," he smirks, "Or keep that for yourself, for now, and tell me how much you want to pose for the both of us, while I take my pleasure of him."

[raventonbeauty]

Ashley whines petulantly as Arkady pulls out of him, and cries out when he thrusts back in, reveling in the teasing and the deep, slow thrusts that get him feeling overwhelmed and needy for more at the same time, which Ashley loves.

He wiggles between them as Ereuvir guides his head up, shifting easily to brace himself so that he can still get fucked at the angle he wants while letting Ereuvir see his dark eyes. He licks his lips for Ereuvir, entranced by him, and then laughs at the question, sweet and wicked.

"Do whatever you please, my lord," Ashley says, crying out again as Arkady thrusts hard and deep into him again, reminding him that he still belongs to his brother. "Fuck him, or let him fuck you. If you want me to pose still and obedient while you do, you'll have to tie me up."

[raventonmagick]

Arkady quivers at the promises Ereuvir makes, as well as his own form of talking dirty. The idea of letting Ereuvir fuck him while Ashley watches, or them both watching Ashley, as well as the very idea that there's going to be more between the three of them, makes Arkady let out a breathless, "Yes. Gods yes."

His thrusts get harder, faster, shifting so he's thrusting against Ashley's sweet spot. "I still know your body so well, my love."

The view of Ashley and Ereuvir having a moment makes Arkady give a particularly sharp thrust. It's a combination of arousal and a reminder that a part of Ashley will always belong to his brother. Arkady brushes a bit of Ashley's hair aside and leans in to bite his neck.

[notcharming]

"Of course. You couldn't let anyone think even for a moment that you were obedient," it's warmly teasing, "I believe I'll make a game of it later. I think I know something you'd sit still and silent for. But I won't have the patience for it right away, not after this."

He's been fairly good about leaving the claiming here for Arkady. It's not that he doesn't want to join in, he's intensely possessive, but he understands that this is a reunion, and he has all the time in the world. It's an easy thing, to let them reacquaint themselves, re-stake their claims. But his patience for merely watching is growing thin all the same, particularly with that breathless little comment from Arkady, who is the one he has more trouble reading just due to lack of familiarity.

He leans in and claims Ashley's mouth, decisively but not roughly, deliberately exploiting knowing exactly how Ashley likes to be kissed. He keeps it brief, though. The noises Ashley is making are too good to muffle for long.
