Jem shrugged slightly and nodded. “You’re right but I can’t help myself. Curiosity killed the cat and all” The boy remarked before offering a small smile. “I won’t tell a single soul. Your secret is safe with me. I’d tell you one of my own but I don’t really have many. Um, I’ll have to think about that and get back to you.” The blonde retorted before moving in and taking a seat.

“Do you have anymore work today? Can we watch a movie?”

[julientheviper]

The tension eased out of his shoulders a little at the assurance that Jem wasn’t going to tell anyone, a smile even slipped on his face at the struggle to find a secret to share in return. “That’s alright, though I think I have enough of a secret that you’re picking the locks to associate rooms. You can actually get in trouble for that” Julien raised an eyebrow, but moved over to the couch to sit next to Jem, tucking his long legs up with him. 

“I wasn’t working today, that was why I thought I had a day to do...this.” Julien gestured vaguely at himself, “But we can watch a movie if you want?”

Smiles seemed to look good on Julien no matter which Julien he was being. Moirean decided he liked seeing them on his face enough that he would make it one of his goals to make the man smile at least once each time he saw him. Yes, that sounded like a good idea. He was given a small laugh as well, and the sound of it brought a small smile to Moirean’s face. He enjoyed making people happy, especially when they hadn’t been a few moments earlier. “Well, I’m glad you got what I meant,” he said softly.

“I can understand that,” he said honestly, “And I’m honored that you’re willing to let me see this side of you. I know it might seem silly, but I know how important it can be, so…it means a lot to me that you’re willing. So, of course it’s alright. I’ll stay with you as long as you want.” He was asked not to tell anyone about this and Moirean shook his head, “No, of course I’d never tell a soul about this. It’s too private. You don’t have to worry about me, I promise,” he said with a smile, before tilting his head to the side just a little bit.

“You’re the one letting me stay in here, so I’ll let you decide what we do. I’m not good with decisions anyway,” he explained softly.

[julientheviper]

It wasn’t often that Julien was faced with kindness in his profession, coming to the tower had at least doubled the number of people he knew that seemed genuinely nice. Moirean seemed to be that kind of person, of course it was tempting to be wary because of the man’s profession, but right now he didn’t want to be wary. Without the mask it was easier to want to trust Moirean. “Well you did kind of find me accidentally, but I’d like the company, and I don’t think you’ll say anything” 

Julien laughed a little, “I wasn’t actually doing much before you got here, just cleaning and listening to music. Classic rock is kind of a nostalgia thing for me” He ruffled the back of his hair a little, almost shy about that. “We could always watch a movie, curl up on the couch for a while. Then maybe we could head for the bath later?” Julien suggested, carefully pulling the headphones from around his neck.

As Frankie listened, it sighed quietly and wondered if Julien was going to punish the slave. It wasn’t the case, though, from what the heard. The slave wouldn’t talk, he knew this particular one and he had always been a quiet one. Though, as the slave clumsily ran out of the room, the door flew open which caused Frankie to fall to the ground with a loud thud. “Ow, fuck!” He said, rubbing at his nose and forehead as he started to get up from his place on the floor. The slave that had bolted out had stopped, trying to help the one he’d hit but Frankie just waved him off with a weak smile.

Getting back to his feet, he saw that the door was wide open and he looked into the suite to only feel his heart slam against his chest. Would Julien give Frankie the same treatment? “Sorry, Sir. I was walking by and the door came out of nowhere.” He said simply, rubbing at his forehead still. “Do you have any ice I could use for my forehead and nose?” The slave requested, his nose starting to throb which caused him to hold it with his left hand.

[julientheviper]

Julien pinched the bridge of his nose, wondering if maybe he shouldn’t have chosen to spend his time at one of his other apartments when he did this rather than the tower. But the tower was quickly beginning to feel like his home, or the closest thing to home that Julien could get. It wasn’t often that he found himself with somewhere that felt altogether personal, most of his places were beautiful, like they came from the pages of a magazine rather than someone actually living in them. This space still felt pristine, but there were more personal touches to it. 

The door had been left open, Julien noticed that almost immediately. He’d thought he’d heard something of a scuffle outside and was just heading over to shut the door, but then a familiar wiry frame settled into the doorway. A sigh slid from Julien’s lips, because really how did he end up with this happening twice? But this was Frankie, he didn’t exactly want to rudely turn him away, even if he wasn’t in the right frame of mind. Ducking his chin in a nod, Julien pointed in the direction of the kitchen. “I think I’ve got an icepack in the freezer”

Ben didn’t trust that laugh. It didn’t make him feel any less as though things could go real bad real fast in this situation. It reminded him, more than ever, to stay alert and not let down his guard even as the other man began to explain himself.

‘Nothing’. Sure. Right. Ben’s green eyes narrowed until they were practically slits. It annoyed him a little that his behavior had apparently been so easy to predict that Julien had already removed his most valuable stuff, but apart from that this information didn’t particularly phase him. He did look at the man with a momentarily raised brow though. No attachment to material things? Yeah right. Everyone was attached to their possessions in some way. Obviously this whole uber-casual thing was just another front the man was trying to sell, and Ben wasn’t buying.

Ben’s time in the basement had done such a number on him psychologically that for the first time in his life .. he almost wished he was getting punished. He was no masochist though; he definitely hated pain, but he’d come to expect it living here, and this sudden deviation from the norm was wrecking havoc on his nerves. It made no sense for an associate to be kind to him, particularly a stranger. There had to be some kind of ulterior motive.

“So.. what is it you want?” he asked, still hostile but with a definite edge of anxiety to his voice. “I mean- later, or whenever. After you’re nice. Then what happens?”

[julientheviper]

“What I want out of tonight? Maybe a little company, I don’t plan to stop being nice. You’re welcome to sleep on the couch if you want, or go back down to the commons, though you didn’t seem particularly eager to be there. You’ve already given me what I wanted, which was not to be bored for an evening, I didn’t really require anything else” Julien hummed, and picked up one of the pieces of the ceramic horse. It was easy to see that Ben still didn’t trust him. It was something he’d work on, or let go of if it wasn’t worth it. 

Rubbing his finger over the polished ceramic, Julien hummed, “You don’t believe me that I don’t care. Maybe I do a little, but I’m not overly attached. When I was a teenager I belonged a man who liked to take things away from me when I didn’t behave as he wanted me to. He’d pick whatever I appeared to favor most and then lock it up to where I couldn’t get it. I hated that anyone could have that kind of power over me, eventually that just developed until I had an detachment to everything. It was a good lesson. Later I watched him get shot because he betrayed the people he worked for, I was the one who told them” The other might not care, that was always an option, but it had been a while since Jules had talked about his past. 

Finally he tossed the piece of ceramic away. “Shall I go send my men away then? Or are you planning to murder me? That would be rather nice to know. I can also cook something if you’re hungry.”

Jem was never where he was allowed or supposed to be. But that made his life more interesting and when he heard music, his ears led him to a suite. He was a lock pick after all and it wasn’t difficult for him to get in and find the source. He was surprised however at the sight he came across. His face widening into a grin as he watched the man move so comfortably. 

That is until he’d been caught and Julian was growling at him. His face dropped sheepishly and he ran a hand through his hair. “Sorry, I heard the music and wanted to know where it was coming from. I-you were really good. It was nice seeing you relaxed.” He mumbled.

[julientheviper]

Fingers wrapped around the headphones, fingers curling over the plastic as he looked at Jem. It felt like he was stuck suddenly, because already he felt like he was out of his element. How was he supposed to act around people when he didn’t have his usual methods to shield himself. That was why his first instinct was to lash out, maybe get Jem to leave. But at the same time, he liked Jem, and was a little impressed that he’d been gutsy enough to pick the lock. 

“Honestly you’re going to get yourself killed doing that. You’re really fucking lucky I didn’t have a weapon on hand” Julien sighed tensely, his teeth digging into his lower lip. “Yeah well, doesn’t happen very often and please don’t tell anyone alright?”

The facade slipped away, leaving a deadpan look on himself. At least he didn’t have to pretend to like being in the situation. They could be pissy together. Or that would be what Silas would say if he cared enough. The other almost looked like a petulant child with the way he glared and crossed his arms over his chest. It was sad.

“Mix up, then. Not my fault,” he sighed. “Do you want me to go so you can wallow alone?”

[julientheviper]

There was almost an amused lift to his eyebrows as he watched Silas’ face fall, losing that earnest, innocent mask in just a few moments. His fingers tapped at his own arms as he looked over the asset, trying to figure out exactly what he was going to do. Simply tossing the guy out was an option, and his first instinct considering he was feeling self conscious. 

“I wasn’t exactly wallowing. And if you think you can get downstairs without the guards stopping you, you’re welcome to”

“Even if I do, it won’t be the end of the world,” he said with a slow shrug. “I’d honestly much rather be here with you,” he said, finally voicing his own thoughts, and then immediately blushing afterwards when he realized how he had said it. “I- I just mean that I… Uh- Yeah, well, I mean what I said, just that y’know, I know you, and I’d rather be with someone I know than someone I probably don’t know, because they might be an asshole, and you’re not, and I’m rambling, and fuck me,” he said with a low groan at his own lameness, tiling his head back as he ran his hands over his face in embarrassment.

“I, uh- I mean, we don’t have to do anything at all, or like I said, I really can just leave if you’d prefer. I mean-” He sighed softly. “I know what it’s like. To have this special part of you that you keep hidden. That you don’t let anyone else see. I- I get it. I don’t want you to feel like you’re being forced to share something with me that you don’t want to just because you’re here. You deserve this time to yourself, and you don’t have to waste it on me.”

[julientheviper]

The little slip up had Julien’s lips curling in a smile, a smaller, softy one of just amusement rather than trying to be charming. The tension in his shoulders finally started to release, “I wouldn’t want you to get in trouble, if anyone asks you could just say I saw you and asked for you instead”  Another little lift of his shoulders. “Don’t worry about it, I got what you meant. I can understand wanting to be around someone you know, this place can kind of be a lottery with whether or not you get someone you like and who’s not a massive dick” A little laugh.

“It’s alright, I guess I’m just not used to...being around anyone like this. Julien’s always the way I interact with people and I prefer it that way. But...it wouldn’t hurt, this one time, to have some company. If that’s alright?” He asked, tilting his head a little as he looked at Moirean. “It wouldn’t be a waste, though I hope you don’t actually tell anyone I can be like this, ruins my reputation”

“Obviously you need new guards!” Shuck sang, smiling as he continued to get closer. The man held no fear; it was both a curse and an asset to him. It made him fearless, but highly expendable. 

The mad man cocked his head at the gun, now standing only one inch away from the barrel pointed to his chest. Shuck gently pushed the gun up, making sure it was pointing at his head. “I was curious. Gettin myself familiarized with all of the men I work with is all.”

[julientheviper]

“Or I simply need more security” Julien hummed, already planning on giving himself a better indication system. The lack of fear in the approach was impressive it still didn’t mean Julien wouldn’t shoot him. 

“Well make a meeting with me then and kindly fuck off” At least he could feel the shell coming back into place, even without the outward appearance so different. He didn’t even flinched when the other moved the gun, simply hooking his thumb to audibly undo the safety.

If Shuck wasnt the predator he was he would have missed how the other gripped the table. He would have not heard the soft click of a lock, or the barely there roll of something opening. Shuck knew what the other was holding before he even lifted it.

And the mad man just smirked as he starred down the barrel.

“It was!” Shuck stated, pushing off the door way he was leaning against to slowly walk over towards the other, looking like a large cat that had cornered its prey. “Cause most dont leave their door opened I was curious.”

[julientheviper]

The Beretta was a comfortable fit in his hand, his personal gun. Of course, not the only gun in the room, but each was locked away like the first, he wasn’t stupid enough to let an asset get their hands on one of his weapons. But it was almost a comfort to be holding it. 

Just the fact that the other was smirking made his hackles rise, but then he was stepping closer toward him. He’d shoot if he had to, Julien had shot men for far less reasons. “There were two guards outside. And to know my door was open, you would have been trying the handle anyway. So again, what the fuck are you doing here?”

[moirean-wells-blog]

Moirean wasn’t unaware of how uncomfortable Julien seemed out of his usual clothing, and the more he thought on it, the more it finally began to fully click into place. Julien was a facade. At least the Julien he’d met back in the commons. This…this was the real Julien. Someone who, most likely, didn’t get to see the light of day all that often. Moirean was the same way when it came to protecting himself. He had a shield that he put up every day and it was rare he let someone see him without it.

“Oh,” he simply said softly, almost a little disappointed. Well, more than a little. He had been hoping to have the opportunity to service Julien, he had actually become quite fond of the man in their brief encounters. “I mean, I guess I can go try to find the-” But he was interrupted by the invitation to stay, and Moirean almost immediately shut his mouth. Unless it was someone like Pacey or Theo, which he sorely doubted, he would honestly rather be here than with someone else. He appreciated knowing his clients before letting them fuck him. In most instances, anyway. He was usually able to get a read on people fairly quickly.

“Are you sure?” He asked, just to be certain that the man wasn’t simply trying to be nice. “I mean, I can pleasure you to make up for it. I had assumed you’d called me to your room for sex anyway. Or, I can actually give a massage. Maybe run a bath for you. I’m yours to do with as you please, sir.”

[julientheviper]

If he were being honest, Julien wouldn’t be able to tell you which was the real him. This side was more vulnerable, more nostalgic, more unused to being around people. But he’d been Julien Constantin for half his life, for the most important years of his life, made all his decisions and had all his successes. Over the years he’d lost sight of what it was to be him. For Julien it was almost harder to be like this, which was why he closed himself off. It felt like he had no idea how to act around people. 

“As long as you won’t get in trouble or something” Julien shrugged again, a quick lift to his narrow shoulders. He probably should have just asked Moirean to nicely leave, that would have been an easier solution, because for the first time in a very long time Julien felt almost nervous and self conscious. It was tempting to go change, to style himself and make it easier, but it felt like he was already stuck here too, and he was stubborn enough to reason that he wanted a day like this. 

Uncrossing his arms, he shook his head, long hair swaying as he did so, “I’m fine. And I’m really...not in the mood. Maybe a massage or a bath would be alright.” Navigating sex wasn’t something he wanted to deal with, not in this mindset. After all, Julien Constantin had been created for that very reason.

Caius leaned against the wall, holding a pair of clothing he had managed to get up and drag down from where it had been hiding during he and Julien’s last encounter. He reached his hand out silently, wincing a little as the injury in his shoulder was stretched. Though, he had to be thankful, because at least it wasn’t burning. No, this was the pain that came with a real healing.

“Brought you your clothes. Finally got ‘em down.”

[julientheviper]

Reaching down Julien fumbled with the device in his pocket, finally bringing up the screen so that he could pause the current song. Then he was stepping forward, taking the clothing from Caius gently, fingers curling into the expensive fabrics. “Could have left them up there, or gotten rid of them, not like I don’t have the money to buy more” Julien shrugged, but tucked them closer to his chest anyway. 

“But thank you, I appreciate it” A hum, then paused a moment before continuing, “You alright?”

It had been a surprisingly uneventful day at work, not many people seeking the services of the spa, and those who had seemed more pulled to those who were not Moirean. Perhaps he should have been offended, but he didn’t have it in him to regret a day of doing almost nothing but day dreaming. There were definitely worse things in the world.

All in all, he only ended up servicing two clients, neither of which usd him as…fully as he would have liked. He was bored and horny, two things that weren’t a great combination for any man, let alone him. Already being naturally submissive, it just meant he was craving someone more Dominant, someone who could really give him a good fucking. That, sadly, didn’t look like it was going to happen.

Looking back on his uneventful day, Moirean was passing the desk to leave when the clerk stopped him and informed him that he’d gotten a formal summons to a room, and had been asked to service that master there instead of him coming to the spa. They had asked for him specifically, though who was a mystery, and though most people would have probably despised it, Moirean was kind of intrigued and just a little bit thankful. A private summons most likely meant he’d be asked to service beyond a simple massage. Something he was more than happy to do.

He was led to the room that had sent him the invite, the man who had escorted him there knocking on the door a couple of times. No answer. Moirean quirked his head to the side, and watched as his escort opened the door with ease, it apparently unlocked, and pushed him inside before he could comment on how rude it was to just barge in on people.

But the moment he’d opened his mouth to say something, he was met face to face with Julien, who seemed shocked and slightly annoyed at seeing him there. His suspicions were confirmed when he spoke, and Moirean winced, instinctively taking a step back. His expression was somewhere between sorrowful and angry at Julien for thinking he could speak to him like that.

“I-I’m sorry,” he said slowly. “I got a summons telling me to come here for a private session,” he spoke, holding the note out to the man. “I was escorted here by one of the workers. If you didn’t summon me, though, then-” He half shrugged, now unsure of what to do with himself. Of course he had noticed Julien’s clothing, but thought little of it. Each person was allowed to be themselves behind closed doors, he wasn’t going to judge anyone for wearing a damn tee shirt. “If you’d like me to go…”

[julientheviper]

It may seem silly to anyone else, to get defensive over his days on his own, but to Julien, it was the days where he was the most vulnerable. Julien Constantin was an invention, born out of a necessity to protect himself and to be able to do the things he’d wanted. It was such a rare day when he could simply step back, open himself up to the things he usually didn’t allow himself. It was hard not to get protective over it, and feel like his space was being invaded. 

Still, watching Moirean take those couple steps back had Julien wincing a little realizing how harsh that probably sounded. But everything felt raw, and a little out of sorts, like he didn’t quite know how to act around someone when he wasn’t wearing his usual charming shield. His hair was ruffled from where his headphones had been sitting and he probably looked younger than he had in a long time, simply dressed. He crossed his arms, long fingers for once undecorated as they grasped at his elbows. 

Chewing at the inside of his cheek, Julien leaned over to take a look at the note, it did have his room number on it, “It wasn’t me that asked for you. I imagine someone’s going to be pissed they didn’t get their massage” A soft sigh, glancing up from the note to Moirean, the other didn’t really seem to know what to do either. As much as Julien wanted his private time, it also didn’t seem right to turn Moirean, “You’re welcome to stay, if you want. Can’t promise I’ll be charming company”

Frankie had been passing through the hallway, his ears wide open since he didn’t have his own pair of headphones. Well, he did at one point but they were destroyed. He’d get a new pair, once a Master decided he was worth being taken in. He sang softly, his voice just barely echoing over the corridor walls. Work, being rented, and sleep took over his life once he was able to fully walk again. It was hard, and grueling, but he did it. Not like it would be the last time, either.

Hearing some mumbled voices as a man opened a door, Frankie furrowed his brows in curiosity before realizing who’s room it was. He hadn’t heard such anger and frustration from this particular Master, so it was strange, and slightly unnerving. Though, to know he could be unhinged did let Frankie know that the man wasn’t completely blocked from any negative emotion. He didn’t step in, but he did listen carefully to the stammering and nervous slave inside the man’s home.

[julientheviper]

The slave started stammering as soon as Julien addressed him. At the very least it was annoying, particularly when he’d been expecting to be alone in the first place. This was one of the ones he’d seen down in the commons, possibly flirted with, Jules didn’t keep track of all of them. But it still put him on edge that anyone was seeing him here. It wasn’t so much that he was afraid of his reputation as it was that he felt vulnerable. The clothes, the attitude, it was a shield that protected him from the outer world. 

Reaching up he pinched the bridge of his nose, “Stop” he said abruptly, cutting off the stream of apologies that were beginning to make his head hurt. Looking up again, he shot a hard glare in the direction of the other, “If you know what’s good for you, you’ll fuck off and forget you were here. If I catch anyone talking about it, we’ll have something to talk about” the way his voice cut like steel at the end of the statement spoke to how little talking there was likely to be. “Now get out” Julien stood tall, watching as the slave backed up so quickly he nearly tripped over his own feet.

Silas watched for a long moment, unsure of what to do or whether he should interrupt. As he was seriously considering leaving, when Julien turned to look at him and Silas nearly jumped out of his skin as well. It took a moment for Silas to regain his own footing, unsure if it was a good idea to just flee and deal with the consequences later. Instead, he took a deep breath and turned on the pretty eyes.

“Sorry, Sir…. Your door was open and I thought I was called for…” he murmured softly, having a hard time looking the other in the face. The last thing he needed was another bruise on his jaw.

[julientheviper]

For a moment Julien just watched him, trying to decide if that was valid or not. Or at least valid enough that he had to shelve his own issues and reconstruct the shell he usually wore. Arms coming up, he crossed them almost defensively over his narrow chest, still glaring at the other. He could call the guards, but that just seemed cruel if the asset had indeed thought he was called for. 

“If someone called for you, it wasn’t me. Also don’t pull that shit with me, I’ve used every trick in the book” He sighed softly, “I should do to learn to lock my fucking door. ”

Dante could hear the bass. It was a familiar rock and roll song and of course that peaked his interest. He wasn’t allowed an ipod, or even a discman in this fucking awful neverland so when he heard music, he made his way to it. 

Opening the door, his eyes fell on the skinny man from earlier and he smirked. “Didn’t realize you had such good taste in music.” The boy replied, completely ignoring the angry question coming from the other.

[julientheviper]

For a moment Julien still wanted to rage, his defenses were on high. The outer shell he’d created for himself often felt like a shield, and he was forever protective with days like today. But it wasn’t as if this guy knew any of that. So he tried to release some of the tension in his body. 

“I don’t, it’s not usually my taste” Julien shrugged, reaching up with both hands to carefully pull the headphones apart and lift them off his neck, reaching down to pause the current song. “Its nostalgic more than anything”

[madman-shuck]

Shuck was slowly making his rounds. The mad man wanted to know who he was working with; who did what, what was their relationship with the brothers, and most importantly who was weak and who was strong. It was hard to thing a man as large as the one eyed killer could actually sneak past two guards and slip into a private room, but Shuck made it look like childs play.

The man’s uneven gaze flicked across the room, falling on that lithe thing jamming out to what seemed to be some good tunes. Shuck leaned against a wall with his hands in his pockets, just watching the other for a few minutes. Why interrupt the other? When the man saw him and snapped, Shuck arched an eyebrow and flashed an odd look at him. “Door was open.” He stated simply, like that explained everything.

[julientheviper]

The man standing before him immediately had him even further on the defensive. He didn’t recognize him, which was one of the main things that put him on edge, being who he was, it wouldn’t be the first time someone tried to have him killed. People weren’t particularly happy that the pet got to head the company, and those on the outside were sometimes upset with the way he chose to handle business. 

The simple explanation really did nothing to ease his paranoia. But he moved over to one of the side tables, gripping the edge so the fingerprint scanner could get a read. There was a almost silent noise of bottom of the drawer sliding open and then a familiar heavy weight in his palm. Staring down the other man, Julien lifted the gun, “Try again”

The bass drum seemed to set the beat of his heart, hitting against his ribs as if trying to claw it’s way out of his chest. But it was so liberating, the scream of guitars that just had that sense of right settling into his bones. Julien didn’t even realize he was humming along to it, headphones shoved firmly over his ears. It was probably the most dressed down Julien had been since coming here, a simple faded t-shirt and jeans that had a few holes made from wear rather than being an artistic statement. 

On days like this, his second in command and head of his security cleared everyone out. He was probably one of the few people who even knew what happened in these days. They were rare, far and few in between, Julien usually carefully maintained his image, had been doing it since he was fourteen. It was only these days that you could see any glimpse of the boy who he was before then. The one who’s name had been lost, who grew up listening to classic rock with his mother and dancing across the living room. 

So, to say Julien wasn’t expecting anyone in his apartment was an understatement. But lo and behold, he was nearly scared out of his skin when he turned around and came face to face with someone else. Immediately his hand went up to yank off his headphones, the air suddenly filled with the small tinny noise from them. “What the fuck are you doing here?” He growled, clearly angry and defensive.
