[ Baein sags and Hunter isn’t entirely sure if that means he should stop or if it just means, given the noises he’s making, that it’s hitting the right spots.
He nips him again, more curious than anything, and draws his free hand that isn’t working over the tail, up to feel over the edge of a furry ear. ]
[ it fills him with a warmth he didn't think he'd feel and baein swallows hard at the promise. that he's the first choice, and it makes something sticky sit at the back of is throat with emotion. ]
I... I got mine because of... when something happened during the birthday party. Something that was good, emotional?
[ he's not sure, but he has a feeling that's how the bonds work. ]
[ baein tilts his head into the touch, and doesn't bother to hold back the small, frankly cat-like noises he lets out. if he could purr he'd probably do it. ]
...yeah... I don't remember. I think— [ the vampire hesitates, and then sighs. ] I fed from Jasper. It... it did something to me, as if I was drunk or something. But the ears were there after.
[ he's fed now so he's definitely a little red talking about this. ]
He doesn’t fully understand how the extras work but he has been fighting an itch since he had hugged Daeshim earlier.
And now Baein, who is honestly closer than anyone else has gotten. (When it comes to things other than sex.)
He continues to idly pet that ear, enjoying the softness of the fur…but more than that he enjoys the whole package the ear belongs to. Hunter kisses his cheek and relaxes against him again. ]
You’ll be the reason I get them. I already feel tingly in places.
[ oh it'll come to that at some point, when he's on the verge of actually turning into a real cat. that's not right now, though. now he's just cuddling up like a real cat despite being human sized. when hunter kisses his cheek, baein turns to return the gesture before settling in the hold. he does look up at him with wide eyes, though. ]
Really?
[ because that admission sounds profound in more ways that baein expected. because of the significance of these bonds that were explained as he arrived here. it means something special. ]
...I have not had something like this before either. Not like this. Never like this.
[ daeshim and jasper at home, that's different. they're the most important people in baein's life and he loves them beyond anything. but this... is different on more than one level. because finding someone who feels so close to you and yet not is the strangest thing possible. then again... ]
Do... do you mean at all?
[ the vampire levels an almost worried look at hunter, because he has a feeling hunter means it differently. ]
[ baein breathes out and relaxes against hunter again. ]
With you, I mean.
[ he's been a little bad at it with others but... it feels safe emotionally with hunter, as if he's not afraid of anything bad happening. it's odd, but safe. ]
[ it could make baein cry, the admission so easy to readily said. ever since he turned, baein has felt like a danger to those around him, so to be considered the opposite... even though he logically knows most of everyone he holds close do, it's... it's different. ]
Really?
[ he rasps the words before he can clear his throat of any rude interrupting emotions. ]
Hunter has no doubt that Baein is safe. And he knows that despite this all being new —-this is probably where he would go first if he felt…lonely. Or hurt. Or needed…something. [
You feel like something I’ve needed for a very long time.

Good?
no subject
he also does bump his head into hunter's hand with another mewl, before he settles, nods quietly. ]
Really good.
[ he's red, but at this point he is beyond caring about propriety or feeling embarrassed somehow. ]
no subject
He waits until Baein is leaning into his hand before he steals another kiss.
Baein shouldn’t be embarrassed at all. There’s nothing wrong. ]
If I ever get one of these, you get first try, okay? I want…it to be you.
no subject
returning the kiss, baein lets out a soft noise before he studies hunters face as he pulls back. ]
One of these? You mean... tails?
no subject
Yeah. A tail. I feel like it might be inevitable…
no subject
Because of the bonds?
no subject
[ he seems thoughtful suddenly because… while he understands the word for what it is he’s never…had anything like that… ]
Hopefully…

Hunter glances from Baeins face to his throat when he swallows, then back up again as he thinks about that…
His fingers smooth over one kitten ear and he tips his head… ]
Kind of like now? How…fast did it happen?
no subject

You think so?
no subject
Hunter just nuzzles and kisses when he feels like it and for now that’s good enough. He doesn’t expect more. ]
Yeah. You feel important. I’ve never had that before.

Hunter takes a breath and shakes his head. ]
I was pretty…isolated my whole life. I was different and people don’t like different. They don’t like it at all.
no subject
I like you. What do they know?
no subject
[ safe. That’s what this is. This house. Bae. This couch. It’s safe. ]
I haven’t faked anything with you.

[ he isn’t sure why but that’s how he’s felt since they met.
Maybe it’s because he wants one, too. ]
no subject
no subject
You already are.
