The Master of Ships

Here ye, here ye, for (MIN) of HOUSE (JABARI), the (MASTER OF SHIPS) of (DELE) has just arrived. They are (THIRTY-ONE), and look a great deal like (MENA MASSAUD).

Here ye, here ye, for (MIN) of HOUSE (JABARI), the (MASTER OF SHIPS) of (DELE) has just arrived. They are (THIRTY-ONE), and look a great deal like (MENA MASSAUD). Their vassals have described them as (RESOURCEFUL AND WITTY) but they also claim that they can be a bit (UNPREDICTABLE AND SARCASTIC). (ACE, 25, CST, HE/HIM/HIS, NONE)

Not all people in positions of power come from powerful families. Min Jabari grew up in a poor region outside of Aladonia. He was a professional thief, stealing people’s most valuables. The boy was resourceful and a quick thinker. Min had a child to feed, after all. And he was going to do whatever it takes to provide and care for him. If that meant he had to go hungry and steal? Then that’s exactly what he was going to do. 

But one day, things didn’t go exactly as he planned. The person he was thieving from came home early, and he was forced to flee. Thankfully, he had their most valuable painting. The man chased him for awhile, but Min managed to escape him by sneaking onto a boat. His feet were trained to be silent no matter what terrain, and the sound of the waves did more to disorienate the man. Unfortunately for Min? The boat soon began pulling away.

Thankfully, his son stayed with his father and Min merely did bidaily visits and letters. So he knew his son would be cared for. He sneaked around the boat, managing to avoid being summoned...That is, until pirates suddenly attacked. Eager to take whatever was on the boat, Min reluctantly began fighting to help the boat that he was on. After all, the thought of drowning didn’t appeal to him. His quick wit and unpredictable plans and fighting style helped push the pirates back. Impressed by his skill and wit, the captain decided to take Min under his wing. Min kindly told the man that he had other places to be. But when he was told just how well the man was willing to pay him? He was quick to agree.

And that is how Min unknowingly became the apprentice to the previous Master of Ships. For years, he trained under the man. While he still stole and theft, he began doing it less and less until he managed to quit doing it altogether. He was still a sneak though, able to move around without making a single noise. Even on a ship or in a forest. One day during a mission, Min’s master never came back. Min was named the Master of Ships in his place, despite the fact that the boy didn’t necessarily want such a noble position. He didn’t want to be like one of these snobs, after all. But once again, the money called out to him. And he did have a kid to feet back home.

“I know how to wield this sword very well, I’ll have you know,” Darreth joked back, “Never had a complaint so far from those I impale with it.” Darreth did get it. Some people were just the absolute worst and had their noses so high up in the air, it was a wonder how they never had them bleed. Darreth liked to think he was one for the people. With this new position he had now, he had a kingdom to take care of along side King Mathias. He needed to make the decisions when he wasn’t present, and he was representing the King. Not one to have ever seen himself as a leader, he still wanted to represent people like himself. Make honest and fair choices for the good of the kingdom, on King Mathias’ behalf when he wasn’t there. So no, Darreth didn’t want to be another noble who let riches and power do the talking. Clothes were being removed, but not fast enough. The kiss was heated and Darreth’s excitement to full mass under his clothes. He pulled back so he could get Min naked first. He wanted to see what this beautiful man hid under all these layers of fabric. And he wasn’t disappointed at all when he disrobed him. He smirked and helped him remove everything else, before taking off his own. The man’s cock was hardened and pointing out right at Min.

“You have no idea how long I’ve desired you,” Darreth told the Master of Ships. He pulled him toward the bed but kept him standing for a moment. Looking at Min’s cock, he wanted to get down on his knees, which he did, and suck on it. He looked up at the shorter male and pulled him in, getting Min to raise his left leg and hook it over his shoulder. Standing on one foot again but had Darreth to hold onto. And the Hand wouldn’t let Min fall. His hands immediately grabbed Min’s fuzzy, thick, round ass cheeks and he dove in with an opened mouth, wrapping it around the head of that length, then slurping down to take it in his throat, getting it wet. He hummed while he sucked the other man off to cause vibrations. His hands squeezed those butt cheeks firmly, and his head began to bob while he sucked.

~~~

Min smirked as he heard the other man’s words. “Is that so? Well I guess I’ll have to test you to ensure that you are not merely sprouting lies.” Min playfully said with a wink. Min shivered at the man’s words before grinning. “And what are the chances of you impaling me?” Min asked with a quirked eyebrow.

Min couldn’t help but to chuckle as the other began helping him disrobe, moving in an almost desperate and animalistic way that had Min’s cock hardening in record time. “I see that someone is pretty eager.” Min said with a whistle as he pointedly looked down and right at the hard cock that the other man had that was brushing against his hip. “I must say Darreth. I’m quite impressed.” 

Min couldn’t help but to moan as the other man’s warm mouth enveloped his cock, and his leg ended up winding itself over the other man’s shoulders. Min couldn’t help but to gasp and moan, using the other man to keep his balance since he was pretty sure the slightest of breezes would make him topple over right now with how good he felt. “Fuck...You feel so good, Darreth.” He said with a moan. “Then why wait and make a move on me?” Min asked with a chuckle as he looked at the other man, thick cheeks bouncing as he teasingly thrust into the other man’s mouth. “My body could have been yours when you asked.”

The Hand of the King remained nearly expressionless as the other let out a small laugh, but he did glance in his direction as the other walked away in a hurry. It never failed to amaze him, the amount of times people wanted to see if his cock was just as big as the rest of him - it actually wasn’t as big as people often expected, but was that going to be something he told them? All he knew, though, was the man next to him seemed bemused by what transpired.

Even if Kyros himself was not.

“If he did not have anything of consequence to talk about, then he should have run off.” As should the younger male, he thought, but he wasn’t going to outright say that and instead he glanced over in his direction. “And why are you here? Did you want to talk to me about something?”

~~~

Min could not have helped the small snort that escaped his lips as he heard the Hand of Ondera’s words. “Even so, no need to go around scaring people when they just want to say hi to you and your loins.” Min teasingly said with a smirk on his lips. Min heard the man’s following words before he shook his head, his hands coming up in a peaceful motion. 

“Nope. I was merely wondering around. I’m stuck overnight until my ship gets some repairs. A rather nasty storm hit me and my crew at sea, and this land had the closest dock.” Min explained with a shrug of his shoulders. “Promise to be out of your guy’s hair the first opportunity I have.” Min said with a chuckle and did a mocking salute.

“Believe it or not, I was raised right, even though I spent most of my life in Rhorm, I’m a foreigner. Some of these noblemen don’t like that I am and rose to the top, they hate when I speak my native tongue. So…why should I be bothered with what they think? And why should it bother me that you started off in hard times?” Darreth brought Min’s hand to his lips and kissed the back of it. When his family entered nobility, Darreth often reminded himself that this wasn’t where they first started, and hoped he wouldn’t be sucked into the persona of being a noble. Probably being a knight who served House Vastic offered him some humility, and Darreth wasn’t easily swayed by riches and material things. “I could, yes. Hand of the King, remember? My reach is pretty much large, for the most part. I’ll see what I can do about it, you have nothing to fear.” He rolled his eyes but smirked when Min touched him. They were basically alone now in the corridor, nearing one of the available rooms. “I hope you like what you’ve touched,” Darreth said, giving the Master of Ships a firm spank on his bottom. He liked the shape, but he wanted to see it without any clothes. “Come, this way.” He brought Min into a room and closed the door, bolting it shut so they were alone and had privacy. Darreth then removed his hat and tossed it to the side, pulling the smaller male into his arms. He gave him a kiss heated with passion and desire. One hand found Min’s posterior, the other grabbed the other’s right thigh from behind so he could raise Min’s leg, and wrap it around his waist. Min would be standing on one foot, but had Darreth to lean on as they made out. “You’re beautiful,” he moaned into the kiss.

~~~

It appears that this was one of the few people that didn’t have their heads so far up their own asses that Min didn’t want to try to avoid any chance he has in the future. The other man seemed to actually get it, even be in the same boat as him a little bit. They both seemed to be outsiders of their respective kingdoms and were trying to find their place in them. 

A playful smirk appear on Min’s lips at the other man’s words, and a small moan escaping him at the firm smack to his rear. Min was definitely getting a bit warmed up. “Hm...I suppose it’s satisfactory enough.” Min purred before smirking and winking at Darreth. “Now...Anything above that? Depends on just how well you are at wielding that particular sword, teacher.” Min purred with a cheeky grin. 

He followed after the other as he was urged to come the way. He watched as the other tossed his had to the side before suddenly finding himself in one of the hottest kisses of his life. Min moaned as he began kissing back, his right leg wrapping around the other man’s waist as it was grabbed and his hands exploring the other man’s body through his clothes. Min was mostly leaning on the other before pulling back. “You’re not to bad yourself.” Min mumbled before going back to the kiss, his hands beginning to undo his own shirt.

He made a mental note to write a letter of request for Min’s son to be trained in his father’s location. He would make time to train him if he was here with Min, and train Min as well. It seemed the idea excited the former thief, and well it wasn’t at all a bad thing for Darreth, as he would get to spend time with Min.

“I’ve trained street rats how to fight, and some of them trained me to be sneaky. Perhaps we’ll learn a thing or two from each other.” He offered his arm to the Master of Ships and escorted him down the path, taking him back to the castle. “I can look into having permanent work for him to settle into if you wish. It can be hard to find a job that feeds a family, but it’s not impossible.” Darreth looked at Min and gave him a coy, sly grin. “Don’t worry…the arrangements I have in mind won’t be so taxing for you. In fact, I’ll even bet that you’ll enjoy what it is I have in mind for you to owe me for this favour.” The larger man brought the other to the castle, and the men guarding gave him a nod as he passed them. He leaned into the other’s ear as they walked. “I want to fuck you, by the way…”

~~~

Min took the offered arm and hummed. “Glad to know you’re not one of the snobs around here that thinks they’re to good to learn from a street rat.” Min wished more people had this man’s thought process. Min’s eyes widened as he heard the other man’s words. “You...You could?” Min asked, surprised that this man would go through such lengths. “I would great appreciate that.” Min said with a nod of his head. 

Min chuckled as he heard the other man’s whispered words and smirked. “Oh, don’t worry. I had a feeling.” Min’s hand teasingly brushed against the other man’s crotch, giving it a subtle squeeze before he stepped forward...Allowing the other to get quite the view of his ass through the cloths. “I just hope you’re able to live up to my expectations, fancy pants.” Min teased with a cheeky smirk.

darreth-thehand​:

It was cute the way the other was being playful with him. And he had desired the other’s company for quite some time. He looked down for a moment, then scoped the other’s body. He could only imagine how good Min looked under all of his clothes. And here he was openly offering himself to the Hand. Who was Darreth to say no to something like that? “I can arrange for a good teacher to train him while he’s with his father,” Darreth offered, “And if he happens to be here with you, I can train him. I can’t say the teacher there won’t charge for coin, but…I’m sure you and I can come to some kind of arrangement while he trains here.”

“These are dark times, Lord Min. We need to be extra careful. Especially you, I feel, having a child and all. My duties as Hand of the King do keep me busy, but I also find downtime when I can. I’ll take care of your son, and you, if you would like to train with me. I was a former knight, after all.” Darreth gave him a soft smile and rubbed the other’s shoulder. “Your in good hands. Can I escort you back, Lord Min? Perhaps we can talk about arrangements for this favour?” Of course he was sure Min knew what he was hinting at.

~~~

Min grinned as he heard the other man’s words. It seemed as if the Gods truly were smiling down on him. This was turning out better than Min could have ever thought or hoped. “I would be very grateful for that, Lord Darreth,” Min said with a nod of his head and an eager grin. He could practically hear his baby boy’s squeals of excitement from here. He can’t wait until he writes the letter. Min then grinned as he heard Darreth’s words. “Oh, I’m sure we can. I ALWAYS make sure to pay my dues on time.” Min lied with a grin before looking the other up and down. “But I think I’m quite eager to see what you had in mind.” Min purred. 

Min nodded his head. “Dark times indeed. My boy’s father has the hardest time keeping work, so I have to send my coins to make sure my child is taken care of. So I can’t afford to be out of work for injuries.” Min said with a nod of his head. “Although, I must warn you. I grew up as a street rat. So I have no formal training. Only what I learned to survive.” Min warned before grinning. “But I think a few of my tricks that I learned just might help with those arrangements.” Min purred intot he other man’s ear, nipping at the lobe. “Such a gentleman,” Min teased. “I would love it if you could escort me back.”

[exthiefmin]

darreth-thehand​:

Rolling his eyes, he couldn’t even lie that he didn’t find the other cute. Because he did, much more so than cute. Although the bigger male didn’t comment on that right now. He removed his hat and held it while the two of them spoke. When he heard of the other’s request, the man took it into consideration. And he knew how to fight. He trained others to learn combat. “The Gods seem to shine on your luck, Lord Min,” the Hand said, “On my off time, I do train others combat. I was a warrior before I became Hand. I could’ve become a knight if I hadn’t been promoted to this position. Still, if your son would like to learn how to fight, he can learn with me. And you can learn something yourself, if you like, My Lord.”

~~~

Min looked at the other man as he took it into consideration. The master of ships couldn’t help but to flirt with the other man a little. “Come on...I would owe you a favor. A boon. Anything you would like.” Min said smoothly, a cheeky smirk on his face as he looked at Darreth. “You could claim me-sorry, it now or later.” Min said with a laugh and a wink. 

Min’s eyes widened as he heard the other man’s words. Min nodded his head. “Thank you! Unfortunately, my son lives with his father most of the time. But he does come to visit from time to time. I’ll see if the dates and luck allign next time.” Min assured with a happy smile on his face. Fuck, he had heard about the other man. He thought he wouldn’t train his baby boy, but this was better. He would be so excited. “And it never hurts to know a few skills. Especially considering the company that both of us surround ourselves with.” Min said with a chuckle.

[exthiefmin]

darreth-thehand​:

Darreth looked at the message he had received from Min, and sighed. He burned it on a candle fire in his chambers, before heading out. He placed his hat on his head and stepped out of the castle. A few escort guards were about to join his side but he waved a hand and told them they were excused for the rest of the night. Darreth could protect himself. An attempt was made on Zakar’s life, surely he wasn’t the only one of House Vastic to be a target. Darreth wouldn’t take any chances but he wouldn’t have anyone else die for him either. The young hand found Min waiting for him and crossed his arms. He knew Min, crossed paths with him from time to time. Did he want to mount him? Probably. “I can get my own ship,” Darreth pointed out, but he’d humour the other. “What is the favour, Lord Min?”

~~~

Min’s lips curved up when he saw that the other man actually made an appearance. A chuckle came out of the master of ship’s lips before he nodded his head. “I’m sure you could. But you wouldn’t have the cutest master of ships on it, and that would be just a shame would it not?” Min jested with a smirk. “My baby boy seeks to begin learning the ways of combat, but I have no formal training. Street smarts, and that’s about it. I was wondering if you’d be able to send him a letter of a few training things or perhaps a reccomendation or two of someone to train him.”

If there was one thing that the Onderan Hand was used to, it was drawing stares. Even before he became a Hand, even before he became a knight, he had always been able to draw attention to himself without even trying, and that was because of one thing and one thing only - his brawn. Though members of the once knightly house Parata had always been known for their size, it was clear that House Parata had benefited from the genes coming outside of Aladonia as it had seemed to fuel the growth within Kyros. By the time he reached maturity and he had stopped growing, he was nearly seven feet tall and nearly as wide as a child, and he was quite easy to find amongst a crowd.

But just because he was used to being stared at, it didn’t mean he enjoyed it nonetheless. “If you are going to keep staring,” Kyros started, calling out a nearby man for staring as he arched a dark brow. “Then you might as well come over and greet me or ask whatever it is that’s on your mind. But if you are going to ask a crude question, then I suggest you turn away now.”

Min watched as the poor servent sputtered and stuttered before quickly running off in embarrassment. Min couldn’t help but to laugh as he watched the scene unfold, lips quirking up into a smile as he found himself both amused and also pitying the young man who had fled as if his life depended on it.

“Now, now,” Min spoke up from his spot off the side. The master of ships didn’t let his amused look fade one bit as he eyed the other man. “Did you need to scare the poor thing? It looked as if he was going to have a heart attack.” Min teased with a shake of his head and a playful look on his face.

[exthiefmin]

Location: Somewhere wherever your muse is from.

Min grinned as he looked at the other man. “Ah, I see you finally made it. Happy you managed to fit me into your busy schedule.” Min teased the other with a cheeky grin. Min had sent a letter to the man saying that he would like to meet up with him, and he was glad to see the other actually met up with him. “I need a little, teenie weenie favor.” Min said with a big grin on his face. “I’m willing to offer a favor for a favor. And why wouldn’t you want a favor from the best master of the ships?” Min asked with a cheeky grin as he placed a hand on his chest.
