fuck it. have another one of these horny snzfckr couple scenarios because BOY do I have thoughts suddenly:
character A loves their partner B's sneezes. there's no doubt about that. sure, they may not be the intense, overpowering, bending-at-the-waist outbursts that A has always been especially weak for, but B's smaller, more delicate, teasingly ticklish sneezes are beyond adorable, and they just suit B so well. add the fact that B is more than willing, even eager, to spice up their relationship by indulging this odd little kink of A's, and A couldn't be happier.
at least, that's what A thought. until one day them and B are curled up on the couch together, lazily watching Netflix, when A can feel B's chest start to flutter with those little tell-tale gasps, the familiar, teasing "h-h-hh?"'s of B's build-up making A snap their head around to watch. heat rising in their cheeks and pooling in their belly, tv episode forgotten in an instant.
"oh? so it's that kind of Netflix and Chill? I didn't realize", A all but purrs, curling up even closer to B while watching with rapt attention, drinking in every twitch and nuance of B's expression as their partner hh-hihh-hitches their way to a final -
...tightly pinched stifle? A blinks, confused. and a smidgen disappointed, they have to admit. B doesn't usually stifle, certainly not when they're alone together like this. B's sneezes may be on the softer side, but they still like to give in to them wholeheartedly, make the most of them, so to speak. they do have a bit of an exhibitionist streak. usually...
and again. gripping their nose tight, reducing the sneeze to a quiet gulp and shudder.
"hey, hey, what are you doing?" A pouts and whines, only half in jest, tugging at B's arm. "you know I don't mind, no need to hold them..."
"no, w-wait, I... h'hh? - nNGh!-dh. give it a moment. -snf- I wanted to show you..." B's voice wavers, breathless and congested, their lips parting in a slightly hazy smile even as the fast approach of another sneeze makes their eyes flutter closed yet again.
"show me what?" A has practically wrapped themself across B at this point, just barely resisting the urge to squirm with impatience.
"hDDH'hh! ah'NNXGH!-shww."
and with that, B finally allows A to pull their hand away from their face, revealing flushed nostrils flaring wildly in protest. just before they completely lose themself to the long-denied, furious prickle in their nose, B manages to crack one teary eye open, stammer out an explanation:
"I noticed stifling makes me sneeze m-more, so I thought I'd... I'd.. IH -!"
and not just more, as A is soon to find out.
