I’M  NOT  SEEKING  PENANCE  FOR  WHAT  I’VE  DONE,   FATHER.

I’M  ASKING  FORGIVENESS  FOR  WHAT  I’M  ABOUT  TO  DO.

HE’S  ALWAYS  BEEN  SENSITIVE,      even  before  the  hypersensitivity  had  kicked  in.      always  been  someone  to  jump  at  a  touch.      feel  the  wind  blow  through  his  whole  body  even  when  it  only  brushed  through  his  hair.      the  brush  of  a  frayed  string  on  soft  skin  irritating  until  it  was  dealt  with.      

his  skin  is  scarred  and  bruised.      he  can’t  tell  just  how  bad  it  looks,    but  he  knows  it’s  marred  with  evidence  of  brutalities,    a  once  -  flawless,    unblemished  canvas  desecrated  with  a  smattering  of  yellowing  skin  and  raw  red  streaks.      clara’s  fingers  feel  like  fire  on  already  hot  skin,    tracing  endless  paths  across  his  chest,    his  stomach,    his  arms.      the  corners  of  his  lips  tug  up  into  a  smile,    even  while  tired  eyes  struggle  to  follow  through.      her  fingers  catch  on  an  older  scar,    rough  and  raised,    just  above  his  hips,    and  matt  tenses  up,    barely  able  to  push  apart.  

he’s  not  a  fan  of  being  touched  by  most  people    —    it’s  an  inevitability  :    people  pity  you,    people  think  they’re  helping  you,    people  think  they  know  better    —    but  clara  reaches  out  to  him,    and  he  finds  himself  leaning  in,    instead  of  pulling  away.      clara  touches  him,    and  he  feels  like  he’s  lit  on  fire,    and  it’s  a  welcome  burn  he  seeks  out      …      a  hellfire  meant  to  encompass  the  devil.      a  touch  he  could  make  a  home  in.      clara’s  fingers  find  the  scar  again,    tracing  down  the  length,    and  he  tenses  again,    lips  pulled  further  into  a  smile  when  he  hears  her  giggle.          ‘  yeah,    yeah.      i’m  a  little  ticklish.  ’          head  turns  to  the  side,    facing  clara,    smile  wide.          ‘  gimme  five  minutes  and  you’re  gonna  be  sorry.  ’

THEY  RECOGNIZE  THE  VOICE  the  moment  stark  walks in.      it  doesn’t  take  super  -  hearing  or  any  of  that nonsense  for  them  to  clock  the  annoyance,    the  frustration.      the  ghost  of  a  frown  tugs  at  their  lips,    but  they  don’t quite  cave  in,    easier  to  keep  a  blank  expression,    and keep  their  face  turned  away  from  company.          ‘  NOT  EXACTLY.      that’s  a    —    common  misconception.      we’re  not  all  blind  -  secret  -  keepers.  ’          they,    too,    nearly  wince  at  the  word  choice.  

‘  attorneys  have  a  duty  of  confidentiality  towards  their  clients  only.  ’          or  prospective  ones,    but  that  needn’t  be  dissected  at  present.      matt  leans  back  further  against  their  chair,    seated  at  their  desk.      hands  are  raised,    palms  faced  out  in  front  of  them.      man  is open,    devil  is  thoughtful.          ‘  the  only  person  i  speak  to  is  my  partner.  ’          the  image  of  innocence,    even  when  hands  are  lowered  back to  the  desk,    their  head  tilts  curiously.          ‘  i  didn’t  think  you  had  anything  to  hide      …      ’          devil  plays  coy,    devil  stews  deep  inside,      man  turned monster  hides  fangs  and  claws  behind  casebooks  and  computer screens.          ‘  were  you  looking  for  a  lawyer,    mr.  stark?  ’

SMILING  EYES  SHINE  BEHIND  RED  LENSES,      and calloused  fingers  brush  through  his  hair  almost  sheepishly.      playing  coy.     his  hair  is  far  darker  than  last  he  remembers  seeing  it  :    soft,    almost  tawny  -  colored  locks  have  since  given  way  to  a  deep  auburn,    muddy  brown  in  the  wrong  lights.      he  wonders  if  the  light  was  right  for  stark  to  see  the  ruby  strands  glistening,    if  that’s  what  prompted  the  fondness.          (      maybe  he’s  flattering  himself  a  bit  too  much  ;      it’s  been  quite  some  time  since  he’s  shaved    —    the healing  bruise  ‘cross  his  left  cheek  supplementing  the  stubble to  make  him  look  what  he  assumes  to  be  scruffy.      )          a  hand  on  stark’s  cheek,    however,    provides  a  comfort  to  dismiss  the  fleeting  doubt      …      instead  only  serving  to  spur  him  on,    tugging  on  that  brighter  grin.  

‘  picked  the  color  just  for  you,  ’          quips  the  devil,    sinful  grin  the  image  of  innocence.     though  his  other  hand  still  holds  tight  to  his  cane,    at his  side,    his  other  hand,    still  soft  against  stark’s cheek,    slides  back,    just  enough  to  thread  fingers  through older  man’s  hair.          (      man  of  iron  turned  melted  cesium  under  hell’s  touch.      )          ‘  how’d  you  know  i  was  fond  of  brunets?  ’          a  beat,    and  the  smile  widens  almost  imperceptibly.          ‘  lucky  guess?  ’
