chuuji thread

[thesettingsun]

[There was only so much that Shuji could do with monsters out and about.

First of all, he couldn't fight, and even if he could have fought, he wasn't assigned to a team and wouldn't have been able to get into the same areas as them. He sent some of his savings to Chuuya and Baren to help fund first aid kits and water, and he helped Grell with her riddle task, but mostly he just waited and worried.

But the moment the monsters disappeared from the streets, the moment the missing people returned and everything was over, Shuji sent Chuuya a text.]

Are you okay? Can I come to your apartment? I'll bring wine. Victory wine.

[He'd rather bring wine because Chuuya won than because he ended up in the hospital.

[doublesmall]

I'm fine, I'm fine. give me a few to get back there and yeah, you can come over.

[shuji is one of the people he'll allow to see it; the guy lives in a dorm, it's not like he can judge the state of chuuya's bachelor pad and the very sad contents of its kitchen.]

[thesettingsun]

[He's already seen it, also. So it's too late to keep up the illusion that he lives somewhere nicer.

When the doorbell ring comes and Chuuya opens the door, it's Shuji, like he probably expected. He may or may not have expected Shuji trying to hug him tightly the moment the door opens.]

You're okay, you're okay, you're okay...

i just woke up and forgot he'd seen it DON'T MIND ME

[doublesmall]

[chuuya is 100% not expecting the hug, no-- he stands there awkwardly for a second before he tugs shuji inside and pulls the door shut. he's not going to just hug in public, okay, the neighbors might be watching.

...once they're both inside, though, he drapes his arms around him with a little huff. chuuya's not exactly used to outright affection from people who aren't his niece, but... he'll take it.]

'Course I'm okay. What, did you think I'd let those things kill me?

s'alright!

[thesettingsun]

[Shuji's not letting go any time soon, but he doesn't object to being tugged inside.]

I didn't think that! You're amazing! But it's different thinking that you're going to be okay and seeing you in front of me. I know you can take care of yourself, but I was still so worried...

[Chuuya is important to him. He can't not worry, when there's danger and Shuji can't do anything to help.]

[doublesmall]

Hey, hey, calm down. I'm here, alright?

[he gives shuji's hair a little ruffle, there, in an effort to reassure him, and his mouth quirks into a small smile.]

You can stop worrying, Shuji. Everything's fine.

[thesettingsun]

Everything's fine.

[Shuji smiles, if a little weakly.]

I'm okay. I'm - just really glad you're safe, Chuuya.

[...maybe he should let go of Chuuya sometime, but he doesn't want to.]

[doublesmall]

You and me both. I think that was enough near-deaths for a lifetime, probably.

[he just throws that out there so casually... he's not dead, it's fine?]

But I might suffocate in my own apartment if you latch onto me all day, y'know.

[there's a teasing lilt to his voice, though, and he's not exactly nudging shuji away.]

[thesettingsun]

Would sitting on your couch be an acceptable compromise?

[Because he can unhug, but he doesn't really want to stop touching Chuuya completely any time soon.]

[doublesmall]

Mm... yeah, I guess that works just fine.

[he will nudge shuji a bit this time-- unhug for a minute, please-- so that he can disentangle himself long enough to settle back in on the couch.]

If you want to grab a drink or anything first, go ahead. You know where the kitchen is.

[thesettingsun]

-Oh, I, uh. I forgot.

[He steps back to open Chuuya's door, grabs the cloth bag with a couple bottles of victory wine in it (that he'd set down because hugging Chuuya was a much more pressing need), then closes the door again and joins Chuuya on the couch.]

[doublesmall]

[...okay, he can't help but laugh at that, shaking his head as shuji rejoins him and chuuya reaches up to tug lightly at his hair.]

You really were excited to see me, if you forgot about that.

[but he doesn't mind. in fact-]

That's kinda cute.

[thesettingsun]

I- Um-

[Chuuya called him cute and Shuji doesn't know how to deal with that, so he responds by burying his face into Chuuya's shoulder so that Chuuya can't see how much he's blushing.

Surely this will not be cute in any way or make things worse.]

[doublesmall]

C'mon, c'mon, don't die over there...

[chuuya drapes an arm around him, because alright, why not. that's also kind of cute.

it's a little awkward when shuji is taller though, so chuuya tries to tip his chin up and get him to look at him again.]

Are you gonna do that every time I compliment you, huh?

[thesettingsun]

M-maybe I'll get used to it?

[Well, now Chuuya can definitely see how much Shuji's blushing, and how Shuji is having a hard time looking at him directly.]

I mean. I'm not trying to be weird about it or anything! I know what you said about you, and me, and I respect that and it's fine, I'm just really happy that you're okay and... everything...

[He's trying so hard to be considerate, but it's hard when the person you have a crush on calls you cute.]

[doublesmall]

[he's quiet for a moment, thinking about that-- ah, so that's the problem. he remembers that conversation, remembers trying to let shuji down as easy as possible, but it seems like he hasn't exactly gotten over that crush.

still-]

Shuji. I- look, I appreciate that and all, but... you remember the rest of that talk, right?

[you know, the part where he said he doesn't mind hooking up anyway. a certain someone else fell through on his promises for one after all the monster fighting, so...]

I can't be your boyfriend or anything, but that doesn't mean we can't still have something, y'know.

[thesettingsun]

[Chuuya doesn't want to date him, and Shuji knows that and that's okay. Chuuya said he'd hook up with him, and Shuji... Well.

It doesn't have to be dating. Chuuya likes him enough, and he thinks he's cute. And Shuji isn't so much attached to the idea of dating Chuuya as just - being with him in some way. Chuuya is amazing, and Shuji likes him. Hooking up isn't a consolation prize.

Shuji swallows. He's nervous for a hundred reasons, but - he pushes down his hesitation enough to lean in and peck a kiss onto the corner of Chuuya's lips.]

...Okay.

[doublesmall]

[good, so he can make a move without dying of embarrassment. chuuya wasn't entirely sure... it's encouraging as much as it is cute, and chuuya grins over at him as he tugs shuji back in.]

You don't have to be shy about it, you know.

[he doesn't kiss him properly, though, doesn't make a move at all aside from pulling shuji closer again. apparently chuuya wants him to make the first move again-- he's feeling him out a bit, seeing if he's comfortable enough to do it or if he'll have to guide him more.]

[thesettingsun]

Easy for you to say...

[Chuuya has never been shy in his life. Shuji's sure of that.

But Chuuya's obviously encouraging him to kiss him again, and so Shuji kisses him again, properly on the lips this time. Still soft, something resembling gentle and chaste, but definitely an Actual Kiss.]

[doublesmall]

[there's no immediate answer to that beyond a laugh muffled against shuji's mouth; yeah, he's right, chuuya's not exactly shy about what he wants for the most part.

the kiss makes that clear enough, before long. chuuya doesn't mind it being gentle, but it's been a long time since he had anything that was sweeter than it was pushy, chaste instead of driven by want. he lets himself enjoy that for a moment, but it's practically reflexive to push for more and up the intensity. he's not trying to deepen it just yet, but there's certainly more intent behind it when chuuya kisses back.]

[thesettingsun]

[Shuji, for his part, doesn't mind deep and wanting - it's just hard for him to start things that way, especially when he's not 100% certain that this is actually happening and Chuuya wants it that way. A soft gasp escapes his lips before he meets Chuuya's intensity with his own.

He's blushing up to his ears. He can feel it from the heat in his face, but there's nothing to be done about that, and he doesn't really mind now.]

[doublesmall]

[he could easily keep going, but he thinks he may need to let shuji breathe before he pushes it too much further-- and besides, there's something else he should probably ask before he forgets himself and just moves forward like he's used to.

so he breaks the kiss, presses another brief one against shuji's lips, and leans back a bit, grinning at that blush.]

Jeez, if you're this red just from that much... what, does the rest of you blush, too?

[he has to tease a bit, okay. but-]

Hey. How much are you used to, anyway?

[he just sort of assumes shuji's probablt a virgin, but it's a possibility. doesn't mean he hasn't experimented a bit, either.]

[thesettingsun]

[He's going to stop blushing! Soon! It would help if Chuuya would not say things like that, since they only make him flush more.]

I-I've dated! Dated guys even! ...I've only had sex with girls before, but still...!

[He's not a virgin, Chuuya, come on. He can absolutely handle whatever Chuuya throws at him. (No, no he can't.)]

[doublesmall]

You have?

[listen, to chuuya's credit he is at least trying not to sound too surprised at that...]

If you've only had sex with women, then just how far have you gone with guys, though. I just don't want to throw anything at you that you're not expecting, alright?

[thesettingsun]

[At least he doesn't sound like he doesn't believe Shuji...]

A little past making out, but not to the point of taking off clothes.

You don't have to worry about freaking me out. [It's sweet that Chuuya's concerned, but Shuji doesn't think it's necessary right now.]
