View from the Top: Elisa & Kai

[kaiandyskyd]

sirenbuffa:

“Of course,” Elisa agreed easily when Kai stated that they might as well gain benefits from their situation. That was a mentality she was coming to agree with more and more. “I hate to waste an opportunity.”

Kai climbed to his feet immediately upon her suggestion and Elisa smiled at him before returning her attention to the gardens. He assured her that he’d be fine until they left there, but she still had no plans to keep him waiting longer than necessary. She enjoyed the flowers, but they wouldn’t need to spend hours and hours here. She probably could if she came prepared, but certainly not in these heels.

She fell back several paces and Elisa stopped to look back at him. Her eyes followed the bird until it disappeared and then returned to her date. “I’m not sure,” she mused when Kai wondered over the origins of the animals. “It probably depends on if they’re native to the area or not.” She sighed slightly as she considered. “Perhaps a bit of both?” Elisa frowned and looked back at the entrance. “Although, usually for animals they have double doors. They might have gotten trapped in here, poor things.” If there was anything Elisa could condemn, it was a cage.

The next portion of the gardens was an impressive rose display. The different shrubs and vines wound together, flowering in a variety of colors. The scent was heady and rich, but Elisa adored it. It reminded her of opening night.

Kai frowned with a bit of a hum. “That’s a good point - I hope they’ll be alright. I guess they can eat in here and such, but I hope it’s not too frightening or anything like that.” He shot a glance back to wherever the bird had darted away, but there wasn’t anything to be done about it. It was gone and he couldn’t help - sometimes, that was just the way of things.

Still a little sad, though.

A rose garden was next, and Kai didn’t know much about roses except they had thorns, so he was careful as he reached out to touch the plant. It smelled lovely - surprisingly thick, he thought, compared to many flowers. He felt like he could almost taste it, or feel it in his nose as much as he smelled. For a moment he kind of wished he could take one, give it to Elisa - but in a way he’d sort of given them all to her. Without him, she wouldn’t’ve come here, and that was a really nice though as well.

Plus, it didn’t require him to tear a piece off of the poor plant.

“Flowers are a little odd,” Kai commented as they stepped further along the path. “I mean, if you think about it - there are these plants, these living things, and we just...chop bits off of them and toss them about as gifts just because they look pretty. Little bit weird.” He shrugged. “I prefer giving potted flowers, myself, if I decide on a gift like that.”

The next section had statues which had sections carved out as little pots, each one with smaller flowers spilling out of them - little blue ones that poured out of a goat’s side, bright yellows that shot up from a pair of swirling fish, oranges that streamed from a dragon’s nostrils as it clutched at a gemstone-like bunch of purples and reds. “That’s beautiful,” Kai murmured, grinning at the dragon. “Cool to see them kind of being used in the art, you know?”

Medieval AU - A Harry in Time

[kaiandyskyd]

harry-meepmeep-dresden:

I grabbed the bread and cheese left over and nibbled on a bit as we walked. Made a mental note about the outhouse. Probably would need it in the morning. Being warm would be nice, even if the weather proved to be rather warm already. 

Then he began to talk about furs and piling them up or letting me take the bed. I wouldn’t kick the guy out of his own bed. That would just be rude after all the hospitality. yet at the same time, he apparently hinted at something that made my cheeks turn red. I thought about it. Not like I hadn’t slept in a bed with someone before. Mouse, Mister and I shared a bed all the time. Granted they were animals and there wasn’t really cuddling or other things involved. 

“That sounds fine. I mean, I don’t want to kick you out of your bed. If it’s big enough though I can imagine it would be nice to stay a little warmer,” My voice didn’t crack. Totally didn’t clear my throat in nervousness, some of the cheese just went down the wrong pipe. 

My coat did make me feel a bit too hot inside, but another body… That would be an entirely different type of heat. Not that we’d have sex. It was well known to share a bed with someone during the cooler parts of the year regardless of gender. Right? 

Right? 

…Suddenly I wished my hand wasn’t burned to Hell. Could barely move it and it would be uncomfortable to sleep with. 

Harry seemed a little bit nervous - or maybe still in pain, it was hard to tell - but he agreed to the sharing situation and Kai chuckled softly. “It’s plenty big, yeah. Made it myself, actually - you know, it’s not such an issue when the forge is fired up, but tonight...” he rolled a shoulder in a shrug.

Kai stepped in and muttered, lighting a small candle and taking it to a pair of larger ones in sconces on the walls. “Plus, it uh... well, it can just be comforting to have another person close, right? I wasn’t expecting those frog things, and if I’m honest I don’t have the best track record for sleep after that kind of thing, heh...”

He stretched a little, setting down the bit of bread that was left on a small table beside the bed. “Little breakfast, already ready,” he chuckled. Pulling off his shirt reminded him of a burn or two - the pain was dulled, sure, but not gone - and he hissed slightly. Then he shook his head, chuckling again. “Fire frogs. One heck of a day, to be sure. All in all, though?” He looked back to Harry with a nod and a grin. “Glad it all happened. Really glad to’ve met you, Harry.”

Then, Kai tossed back the large fur which served as a blanket and sat on the edge of the bed. “You prefer being by the wall, or...?”

Hey Baby, Wanna Meet My Raccoon? | Orchid & Kai

[kaiandyskyd]

studiocitypsychic:

She lost her focus quickly, any attention she had left on Kai’s fingers inside her, making her pant and whimper and her hips jump. If he said anything, it was only met with whines and moans. Her eyes slipped shut and she gave herself over pleasure. 

When Kai moved from behind her, she let out a huff of surprise. Her back hit the warm couch, putting her at a new angle, and this one felt even better. Orchid opened her eyes to find Kai over her now, staring down at her. She shivered. The only thing better would be if she were lying there naked and bared to him. 

His hand sped up and Orchid arched her back off the couch with an “Oh God!” But it was lost in his kiss. She pressed her lips to his, hot, needy, and when he pushed his tongue into her mouth she moaned. She had very vivid memories of that tongue of his, and they played at the forefront of her mind. 

He apparently grew impatient, and Orchid found herself on her back, hips dangling over the edge of the couch. She stared at Kai with heavy-lidded eyes, and thread her fingers through his hair as he bent over. She could feel the tip of his cock tease her, and she responded with a long, low moan. Not needing her hands for anything in particular, she pawed at the top of her dress, wishing she could just rip it in half and be done with it. 

Kai asked if she minded being in the living room.

“No,” she stammered. “Fuck me.” 

Kai loved the way she moaned into his mouth - he’d keep this up all day if she let him. Now there’s an idea for the future, definitely... She was wanton and lustful and so was he, matching her measure for measure in a feedback loop of lust.

He groaned through gritted teeth as he slid along her, her fingers clutching deliciously at his hair. One hand met hers there, holding her hand in his hair - something for her to get a good solid grip on. When she spoke up he didn’t hesitate - he pressed down on his shift with a thumb and leaned forward, sinking slowly into her.

A moan ripped from his throat, starting suddenly but trailing long as his eyes tried to close but he forced them open, looking her over intently - her face, her dress, and down between her legs where his length was slowly disappearing inside of her before his gaze settled on her lips.

“I love hearing you talk like that,” he uttered breathlessly, one hand trying to tug her dress out of the way a bit and free up the way to a breast. The other fell to her hip, clutching as his hips met hers fully. “Fuck, Orchid, I want to hear you.” He leaned in and caught that hot mouth in a deep kiss. “This mouth,” he murmured, his lips brushing hers as he just held there, buried fully in her - for a moment, at least. “This mouth does such wonderful things.”

He let his head fall forward, stifling a rough moan against her collarbone as he slid halfway out, slowly, and then started back in again - still teasing. Some would call him a bit of a masochist...and they would’ve been right to say so. She’d been so nice though, to say what she wanted - he wouldn’t want to deny her after that.

“How silly of me,” he murmured against her skin, one hand clutching at her thigh. “You- you told me to do something. It’d be rude not to...” He pulled back a little, giving himself a better position to start things up properly - long, slow, steady thrusts at first but with an added burst at the end that brought flesh slapping against flesh and had his breath catching in his throat.

Things that go Bump in the Night: Harry & Kai

[kaiandyskyd]

harry-meepmeep-dresden:

“I guess you are right. Never really saw myself as the jealous type. I mean if you’re in that type of relationship you should trust the other. Know that they aren’t going to go out with anyone else or in your case they’ll tell you about who they’ve been out with. Just in case, you know, they catch something or you don’t like the other person for some reason or… I dunno. It seems complicated. So…” I thought about that and started to laugh and nod. “Just like any other relationship just with more people. From what I hear at least. Don’t have that much experience with monogamy, none with poly.”

Elaine and I were rather close. We didn’t really hang out with other kids for obvious reasons. Being wizards and all. She’d been my only experience so far with dating and all of the above. Not much to gauge anything on. Maybe it could be fun. The way Kai talked about it so casually helped me relax a little. Couldn’t argue that he still looked super cute. For a guy I mean. Meant to say super handsome. Yeah, because guys aren’t ‘cute’. 

Then my body started to ache. Adrenaline finally fully getting out of my system. The Ghouls I’d been fighting for a while before running into Kai. Most of the bruises were under my clothes but that didn’t make them magically disappear. That would be a damn good magic trick and if anyone knew how to do that I’d kiss them. 

“We fought a bunch of ghouls tonight. I’m bruised to hell. I think I might need a bit more than beer if I’m going to stay on my feet much longer,” I admitted and looked at Kai’s eyebrows. Now and then I glanced down. He had pretty eyes. Not nearly as dark as mine. 

Kai chuckled a little, grinning softly as Harry worked through a bit of it out loud. He nodded as the other man nailed down some of the things pretty succinctly, and joined in with a laugh when Harry said it wounded just like any other relationship. “Heh, pretty much, I’d say! Yeah, you really hit the nail on the head a couple of times there - nicely done.”

Apparently he hadn’t been in many relationships at all, and Kai wondered for a moment whether that was a matter of circumstance, personal choice, or a combination of both. He suspected it was probably the third.

He finished off his beer with another mouthful and started debating whether he’d get another, when Harry spoke up again. Kai chuckled with a grin. “Yeah? Makes sense, heh - I guess you were fighting ‘em for a while before I showed up. Uh... have they got anything steeper here? I’d buy a round or two.” Kai glanced over toward the bar again.

“Could head back to mine for a few if you’d like instead - you really saved my bacon and my apartment’s not far. I’ve got a pretty good selection: whiskey, tequila, vodka, the normal ones. And a really old and awful bottle of sake but I really wouldn’t suggest it, heh.” He chuckled a little and dropped his attention back to his plate. Definitely gonna finish this steak either way, though.

New Age Knights: Mia & Kai

[kaiandyskyd]

miaswordmaiden:

Knowing that Kai was okay Mia could give Richard her full attention. Several EMTs came into view behind the nurse and Mia breathed a sigh of relief. “You’re gonna be okay,” she assured him. He probably wouldn’t be able to fight for a long time, maybe never again, but he was gonna live.

Kai rested his head against her. It was difficult to feel through her armor but she sighed and leaned into him a little bit. They were okay. Almost everyone was all right. The creature was gone. “Yeah, no more monsters,” she agreed readily, at least not around their human friends.

“Do you guys need any help? I mean, cleaning up or anything? I think we’re done for the day.” She glanced at Kai for his confirmation. Mia felt like she’d done plenty of fighting, and she still hadn’t gone to find her sword from where ever it had fallen.

They were instructed to go talk to the others about help sorting everything else, but Mia imagined that there wouldn’t be much for them to do since they hadn’t brought much.

That was probably just as well, people were bound to find out eventually that no one had created that thing. She didn’t know if she could handle the questions that would inevitably start going around. It was probably better to just get out of there.

However, if someone was too hurt to get their things, then she wanted to help them, and she would. It wouldn’t hurt to check.

“Yeah,” Kai muttered in agreement. “Think we’re done.” It seemed to be the general consensus and he wasn’t surprised. The camp had mostly been knocked down and a fair few people were probably bruised or maybe injured worse than that. Not the best day, definitely...but it could’ve been far worse.

They were directed back toward the camp and Kai nodded, pushing himself upright to stand. The cleanup efforts were pretty well underway - the two tents that had been knocked over were extricated and the canvas was already rolled. Nothing too much had been damaged underneath, actually - a few table broken, but nothing they couldn’t fix easily. Kai made a not to help out with that particularly.

The tent which had burned had only been for the registrars anyway - the tent was a loss, as were the table and two chairs, but that was all. Thankfully, the food tent hadn’t fallen over - that would’ve caused another fire and a lot of losses.

There was a little to do, at least, though - gather up the last of some things. Kai helped Mia get her armor off, first, and then helped put a fix on a few of the tables right then and there. Then all that was left was just packing up to go home.

[kaiandyskyd]

Buds, and Brews with Buds: Liv & Kai

[kaiandyskyd]

botanyandbrilliance:

Unfortunate. Sadly, Kai didn’t really know the half of it. Unfortunate was probably one of the biggest understatements that she could think of. For most people, it probably wasn’t a problem. They liked someone…. really liked someone, and found themselves in a relationship with them without realizing that the relationship was never meant to be more than temporary. Or not meant to be with just one person. And then it was over. 

Most people just moved on. Those who were already a little awkward to begin with tended to find themselves quite crushed. Have a couple of go’s at it, with the random mishaps and being really unable to explain things breaking inexplicably, and eventually it just didn’t seem worth it. There were plenty of other things to occupy the time with. 

And oddly enough, she was happy with just her and Mum. She’d met a few new people, and they’d all been perfectly lovely. So long as she reminded herself not to start daydreaming heavily about any of them, things were fabulous. 

Liv’s smile grew, the expression bringing light to green eyes as she nodded. “Exactly! It takes a lot of proactive with some reactive, but once you get the hang of it, it becomes less of a mystery and more of a science.” Quite literally at that, and one that she very much enjoyed. 

“But, that’s a useful skill!” she exclaimed in response to his knowing how to install a shower. “I mean, perhaps not as much fun as building trebuchets…. and really, what do you do with those? Aren’t those the heavier duty weaponry that are sort of like catapults… but not? Are those things even still used anymore?” 

Kai clarified the place that he was referring to, and she rolled her eyes a bit, though the expression was clearly at herself. “Oh right, of course. I should have known that… do know that,” she amended, “it just… hadn’t occurred to me.” When he’d said it, she’d actually thought of King Triton from the animated movie which was why she’d needed a reminder. 

The fresh plants that he’d brought back from the shed brought another smile to her lips and she started to dig yet another hole with enthusiasm. Her eyes flickered up towards his as he asked after her interests, a smile that was not at all self conscious touching her lips. “Mum and I follow the ways of the Mother Goddess. It’s… a rather ancient practice that pre-dates Christianity by a good bit. It’s really almost obsolete, but there are still some of us out there keeping the Old Ways alive.” Pausing for a moment, her head tilted a bit as she looked back down to the start of the hole. “As for dance…. I’ve got a group that I do bellydance with. It’s really quite calming and dancing with people is always better than dancing by oneself.” 

He chuckled, shrugging. “Yeah, it’s useful, true! Heh, which is definitely more than the trebuchets, yeah.” He shook his head a little when she asked if they were still in use. “Uh, not really - yeah, you’re right, they were originally designed as heavy-duty siege weapons. Similar function to catapults but different design, yeah. I’ve never made any that big, though - just smaller ones for like...flinging water balloons and stuff, heh. It’s pretty fun though, that - me and a few of the others from SCA made a dozen of them and we staged little water-balloon siege battles, it was pretty fun.”

Apparently she had heard of Triton, just hadn’t placed it immediately off of the word alone, and Kai nodded with a chuckle. “Ah yeah, it happens - hazards of places being named after relatively innocuous things, right? It’s a pretty good school, though. Met some good friends there, students and faculty, both.”

Liv talked for a moment about her life, and Kai didn’t instantly recognize the beliefs she mentioned, but he wasn’t too surprised at that. He wasn’t a scholar on that sort of thing or anything like that. He grinned as she mentioned belly dancing, too. It was always interesting to find out what people enjoyed. “Oh, cool,” he nodded, “that sounds interesting - on both counts! Don’t know that I’ve specifically heard of the Mother Goddess, but I might just have heard a different name, I guess. Belly dancing always looks like fun, though - that’s really cool. Didn’t think it’d be too common around here.” Then again, he also hadn’t thought magic was real. As it turned out, he was wrong about a lot of stuff.

“Not much of a dancer, myself - I mean, I like it well enough, I’m just not very good or practiced, heh.” He shrugged one shoulder, starting in on another hole. “Pretty much all the actual training I have consists of a few lessons of ballroom dancing, so I didn’t embarrass a friend at an event she was bringing me along to!” Kai laughed a bit, shaking his head. “But I think it’d be a fun thing to learn, sooner or later.”

[sirenbuffa]

Breath Away: Elisa & Kai

[kaiandyskyd]

sirenbuffa:

Elisa’s grin deepened, flashing Kai her teeth, when he stated that he couldn’t think of anything else he’d want. He was meant to serve her, but that didn’t mean she couldn’t keep him comfortable. She wanted him to be happy, then he’d be pleased to serve her.

Kai brushed his teeth while Elisa set to her evening moisturizing routine. Once he was done with the sink she brushed her own teeth, rinsing away all of the evidence of toothpaste when he was finished. Her cleaning woman wouldn’t be there for another several days.

Once she was finished she hung her towels on their rack and dried her hair enough that it wouldn’t be a mess in the morning. Once she felt ready she followed Kai into the bedroom. She found some satin pajamas and slipped them on before turning back to Kai.

She smiled as she joined him beneath the blankets. “I don’t mind if you touch me,” she murmured, inching closer to him with an shy bat of her eyelashes. “I’d like to know you’re here. I know you’ll keep me safe.”

He couldn’t help but grin at the sight of her in those pajamas - she was so cute. So refined and elegant, yet also so cute; capable of so much, and he was glad he got to partake of some of that.

Kai chuckled a bit at her demure display. “I was hoping that’d be the answer,” he confessed, slipping one arm behind her with a sigh and stroking at her idly with his other hand. “Touching you sounds far better than not touching you, heh.”

Keep you safe? I can do that. He couldn’t tell whether it was a statement born of real concern or just an idle comment. “Want me to check under the bed for monsters?” he murmured, chuckling softly and giving her a kiss on the cheek. “Thanks for a wonderful evening, Elisa. Sleep well, sweet dreams.”

Birthday Drinks || Open

[kaiandyskyd]

studiocitypsychic:

“Legs in tight, got it,” she said. “Wait, you can get bugs in your- Kai that’s gross. I might need a shower when we get to your place.”

She listened to his instructions, looking at the bike as she did, trying to visualize what she was going to have to do. It seemed simple enough. Leg over, hop on, hang on for dear fucking life. How hard could that be? She had never ridden a horse before, so that part escaped her, but it couldn’t be that difficult. Probably. 

Orchid nodded and put on the helmet. It settled snugly on her, and she thought she looked badass. She did as he instructed, swinging her leg over, pulling herself up onto the bike. She tugged at her dress, but it was mostly in vain. If she didn’t flash the world it would be a miracle. Thank God it was late at night. 

She put her arms around his waist and pulled tight against him. “Uhm, ready! I think.” 

“In your-” Kai blinked, frowning a little in his confusion before he laughed at the realization of what she’d cut off. “Oh, no! No they just might hit your legs, that’s all - if you keep ‘em tucked in behind mine then they’ll bounce off of my jeans, heh, that’s all.”

He grinned as she pulled the helmet on. It looked good on her. Not nearly as nice as it felt when she swung her leg over and snuggled up behind him. She said she was ready and Kai nodded with a chuckle, patting at her thigh, and then he started the bike up.

Two tries, not bad - he’d just replaced some parts, though, so it wasn’t a surprise. The engine rumbled to life and he pulsed the throttle a couple of times, mostly just showing off, but he could pretend like it was to warm up the engine. Sure.

Kai flicked up the kickstand with his heel and felt Orchid holding on tightly behind him. Good good. He was careful to be fairly gentle on the throttle, easing into it. Of course, the bike wasn’t quite as stable at low speeds but that wasn’t really an issue - he’d been riding for a while and didn’t wobble too much, but after he got out on the roads and managed to get up to speed...that was when things got really fun.

He let out a bit of a whoop as they started to streak through the night, engine purring nicely. The cool air flew through his jacket where he’d left it half-unzipped, and he dropped his left hand at one point to squeeze at Orchid’s leg again a little. She seemed to be doing fine - he hoped she was enjoying it.

It didn’t take too long to get back to his apartment complex - ten minutes, give or take, and he enjoyed every minute of it. It was different with somebody else on the bike, had its own upsides and downsides, but he always liked introducing people to things that he liked and this was no exception. He tried to tailor the ride as best he could, paying attention to her reactions - when she tensed up, things like that - and trying to act accordingly. It would’ve been a little faster had it just been him, but he didn’t care about that at all. He was in no rush.

Kai rolled right into the parking spot inside the building’s garage, kicking the stand down before he shut the engine off. “So?” he chuckled, pulling off his helmet. “What did you think? Gonna be lining up for a helmet and jacket of your own?”

[miaswordmaiden]

New Age Knights: Mia & Kai

[kaiandyskyd]

miaswordmaiden:

Mia grinned at Kai when he wondered why they hadn’t thought of that sooner; they sort of had, they just didn’t know that the other knights would try to stick around.

She went to Sir Richard, trying to stay between him and Kai. He didn’t need to see what was about to happen. His injuries were bad enough without mental scaring to go with them.

He was obviously in a lot of pain, and Mia did what she could to help distract him from it, giving him tips to cope and just keeping his mind occupied. She hated that she couldn’t see what Kai was doing, but she didn’t hear him struggling, so hopefully everything was okay.

Just a little longer now… this is going to be okay. 

The nurse was approaching, Mia could see her out of the corner of her eye. She readied an explanation, her eyes going wide as she turned back toward Kai and the creature.

It was gone. Kai was alone in the field and it looked like everything had been taken care of. 

Oh. Oh good.

Kai watched transfixed as the beast snapped the last of the rope holding its ankles together and then turned, rolling over to push itself to its feet. It looked over in his direction and Kai felt faint, like he might collapse at any moment - and that was before it started to walk, directly at him, with a huff and a grunt.

He wasn’t sure what else to do, what there was to do, but his feet wouldn’t move when he commanded them to - he was frozen in place with a giant something trudging toward him. It reached out a hand and wrapped it around Kai’s waist, and he started pulling a spell together but he didn’t really know what it would be yet. A shield or a bolt. Whatever it was he knew it would be the last chance - if he diverted his attention he was sure the Way would collapse.

It never came time to find out, though. The creature didn’t squeeze him or throw him - didn’t even really seem to regard him as a living thing, just a little something that was in its way. It lifted him, dropped him off to the side, and stepped through the Way.

Wide-eyed and panting, Kai let the spell drop. He sat for several minutes just staring at the emptiness where it had been, looking back out over the field which was torn up in the aftermath. Mia was still over there with the fallen knight - and somebody else outfitted as one of the nurses was coming over as well.

Kai stood and walked swiftly back over that way, kneeling behind his friend and laying his forehead against her armored shoulder, and just groaning for a minute - but the sound shifted into a bit of a chuckle as he went along. He was tired and sore, and bleeding from his arm where it had snagged on a tree branch, but the knight here was probably in the worst condition of any of them and he was still conscious. Still alive. Nobody had been torn in half or lit on fire.

Maybe a low bar for success, but it counted.

“Let’s maybe not do that again, huh?” Kai groaned against Mia’s shoulder with a weak chuckle.

Things that go Bump in the Night: Harry & Kai

[kaiandyskyd]

harry-meepmeep-dresden:

“And do the partners get jealous? I mean, it sounds um… interesting, but I’m not really sure about it. Isn’t it hard for people? I mean, communication is likely key in all of it, but still. I don’t mean to insult you or anything I just don’t see how it works for all involved. Do people like one person more than the others?” I couldn’t help but ask about it, keeping my voice low. Didn’t mean to keep my voice low due to insulting him, but more because I couldn’t get my voice to say those words any louder.  

Curiosity would likely be the death of me one day. Or my mouth. Likely both. At least, that or an elephant and some triplets. Oh shut up, the latter might happen. At some point…

Things like this really caught me off guard. Sex wasn’t really a huge part of my life like it was for most guys my age. Didn’t really talk about it or things related to it. Especially not in public. Granted, I knew about bisexuals, homosexuals and hetero, and also that there were more not listed. Just didn’t have names to go with them. When you spend a lot of time in bookstores and taking awkward jobs for people who don’t believe you’re really a wizard you pick up on some things. 

“Sometimes, yeah,” Kai tipped his head in concession. “People get jealous - but I mean...people in monogamous couples get jealous, too, right? How many boyfriends get antsy when their girl hangs out with other dudes; how many girlfriends hate their man’s female friends, right? Sadly many, in my experience at least.”

He took a deep pull from his beer, smiling in the wake of it and glancing to Harry’s eyes for just half a second before dropping his gaze to the man’s cheekbones. “You’re right, though - communication is definitely key. Some people like some partners more than others, yeah, probably, but...all relationships come down to trust, you know? Friendly, romantic, sexual, intellectual, whatever - with one person or with twenty, if there’s no trust, I don’t think the relationship’s likely to last for long. Not in my experience, at least,” he shrugged. “But sometimes I guess longevity isn’t the goal necessarily.”

Kai didn’t keep his voice down particularly, but he also definitely wasn’t shouting things to the bar - just speaking, just carrying on a conversation. In his mind there wasn’t anything that odd about the topic. He knew that his life was a little different than most, here, but he’d just spent time fighting off ghouls with this guy, so his dating style didn’t seem that outlandish by comparison.

[kaiandyskyd]

Hey Baby, Wanna Meet My Raccoon? | Orchid & Kai

[kaiandyskyd]

studiocitypsychic:

Orchid grinned, her breathing faster and heavier. “Only problem.. with that… we have to.. actually get up.” She wasn’t sure if she could stand up. Her knees might give out and he would have to carry her or fuck her right there on the living room floor. 

Kai’s voice in her ear, and the way his fingers sped up, make her breath hitch in her throat. Her panties had to be soaked through by now. And she wasn’t going to make it much longer like this, anyway. Orchid tipped her head back, lips parted, and forced herself to focus. It was far too early in the afternoon to come. “Both. Both is good.”

He bit her ear and she nearly came undone right there. Orchid shuddered hard, but she managed to catch herself before she fell off the edge. And then he entered her with his finger and her whine could probably be heard past the soundproofing. She rocked into his hand, demanding more from both his fingers and the hardness pressed against her. Kai tipped her chin back and for a brief moment she stared into his eyes. Not long. A Soulgaze would ruin the moment entirely, but enough for him to see the desire etched into them. 

A million different fantasies skipped through her mind. Missionary, good. From behind, excellent. Tied to his bed and teased until she screamed, perfect. 

“Yes, please,” she whispered. “Please show me. Anything. You’re driving me fucking crazy.” Orchid rocked her hips forward and then back into him. 

Kai laughed a little, but the sound came out soft and warm, wrapped in a moan due to the way Orchid sounded. Looked. Felt. Everything. “Oh I don’t think I’ll have a problem with getting up,” he whispered, eyes glimmering over his grin.

Both. Both is good, definitely, yes. He groaned through gritted teeth, eyebrows knitting together. The way she pressed back against him, how good she felt to his hand - sounded in his ears - had him needing to hold himself back. Not that he really would have minded if he’d lost control, but it wasn’t likely to happen.

She was so emphatic, so enthusiastic - she wanted more and left no question about the matter in Kai’s mind, and he loved that. That and the fire in her eyes, burning hot behind that cool almost grayish blue, Kai gritted his teeth and forced himself to look away rather than lose himself in that desire - in a way that probably would have brought things to a grinding halt. It was a shame, though. Eye contact was really, really good.

Orchid spoke, softly - like she couldn’t manage anything louder - and Kai’s eyes slid shut as he let her words spur images through his mind, each one bringing a little shock and shiver that rippled down his spine. Teasing was fun, could be lots of fun - and one day he thought that it would be a good thing to do, but today? Right now? There were a million thoughts in his mind, but teasing either of them any longer wasn’t one of them.

With a growl, Kai pulled himself out from behind and underneath Orchid, leaving her on the couch and leaning overtop of her, kissing her deep as he redoubled his efforts with his hand. She was hot and wet and she wanted it - wanted him - so much, and he wanted her too. He delighted in the taste of her mouth, the feel of her tongue on his, as he slipped a condom out of his pocket, unzipped his jeans, and slipped it on. Even just the sensation of that had him shivering a little more.

Enough was enough, and he was pretty sure they’d both had it. With a swift movement, Kai leaned up and broke off the kiss, tugging Orchid’s hips in front of him on the couch and slipping her panties off to the floor. “Bedroom later,” he murmured, leaning down to suck at her collarbone and let the tip of his cock just slide along her slit. Maybe just a little more teasing. “Unless you have any objections?” He could wait until she answered - in either words or moans or with her hands - before he plunged in. Just another second, that was all it would take.

Breath Away: Elisa & Kai

[kaiandyskyd]

sirenbuffa:

Kai took the soap and Elisa grinned before turning to her face scrub. The ash gently exfoliated her pores, allowing in the healing oils that were blended into the concoction. It was all natural and healthy and it smelled slightly of citrus. 

He was finished by the time she’d let it set properly so she turned the water off and let Kai hand her a towel. He discussed the amenities he hadn’t thought to bring to the theatre as they got dry and pursed her lips in thought. “I may. I’ll look in a moment.”

Once she felt dry she wrapped the towel around her body, procuring another one for her hair which was soon tightly bound on top of her head. Once she felt suitably taken care of she went to her drawer of excess amenities and glanced through it. She moved often, so things didn’t have much chance to accumulate, but she had been in this place a while, nearly a year.

She pulled out a toothbrush that was still in the package, given to her on her last dentist appointment. “Here, you can use this one.” If she was going to have pets staying over frequently then she should probably invest in disposable necessities. She didn’t want them suffering in her home. “Was that everything?” Elisa ran a fond hand down Kai’s cheek. “I’d hate for you to need to go without.”

Elisa stood for a moment until Kai handed her a towel - it made sense, he was closer to them anyway. He hesitated for a moment, unsure of whether he should offer to dry her - it sounded kind of like fun, but also like it might be an odd thing to offer - but she started in on her own so he let it lie.

She said she’d look for a toothbrush, and she found one soon. Kai hung his towel back on the rack after he was dry, though Elisa not only kept hers but added another as well. He flashed her a grateful smile when she handed the toothbrush over; an expression which only widened when she stroked at his cheek.

“Cant think of anything else I’d want,” he chuckled softly with a grin, meeting her eyes until a little tingle reminded him to look away to her nose instead, but that was fine. It was a cute nose. He popped the toothbrush out of its packaging and made use of it with what else she provided, feeling oddly a little nervous about dripping any foam anywhere - either on himself, or the floor.

She didn’t seem judgmental but she definitely seemed refined and elegant in very classic ways, and something about that just clashed with the idea of dripping toothpaste foam. Plus the bathroom was so clean - as if she hardly ever was here, which he supposed might well be the case. From the sounds of things, she traveled a lot.

Kai followed Elisa after they were done, back toward the bed which he smiled at faintly. It looked good, the sheets ruffled like that - little reminders of a while ago. “You like snuggling?” he asked, raising an eyebrow, “or do you need your space to sleep?”

Buds, and Brews with Buds: Liv & Kai

[kaiandyskyd]

botanyandbrilliance:

In response to Kai’s quirked eyebrow, Liv just smiled. It was an oddly mysterious expression, but one that didn’t really didn’t leave any room for questioning. He could ask if she wanted, but she didn’t plan on telling. The good news was that the magic she planned to leave behind wouldn’t affect anything other than what they were planting, and would act as a safeguard against any freezes. 

She shrugged a little bit as he spoke of what she was assuming were his experiences with relationships. It wasn’t that she didn’t understand, it was more that that hadn’t been her experience. Maybe she was just unlucky. A small, and somewhat rueful smile touched her lips as she nodded, eyes coming to rest on a spot between his eyes and just above the bridge of the nose. “Having options is nice. I always seem to find the ones that have something wrong with them. Usually, they’re emotionally unavailable, or have issues with something else, then I make it worse by wanting more than they do, and it all goes to shite. I’ve rather stopped looking…. or caring, really.” Huffing a brief laugh, she shook her head again as she returned to digging her second hole. “Pretty sure it bothers Mum that I don’t get out and do more, but I’m not bothered by it. I sort of feel like if I’m happy, then what difference does it make?” 

At least, she thought she was happy. The more intellectual pursuits typically kept her busy to the point that she didn’t notice what was going on in her social life. Or lack thereof. Which was typically the way she preferred it. Liv’s track record in the “developing feelings for anyone” department usually meant it was going to end poorly. She tried really hard not to let that happen.

Breeding hybrids was sort of like fixing problems before they went wrong. Or, it could be to get specific color variations that might not otherwise be produced strictly through nature. Or different medicinal results. It really depended on what the end goal was. “I guess it can be sort of like that, yeah. It’s more a matter of knowing what the desired result is, and working to achieve that. It’s not an exact science, and sometimes it takes several generals of cross breeding to actually get what it is that you’re looking for. That’s just time and patience.” 

After all, plants matured far more quickly than people did, so several generations of plants may only be a few years of experimentation. 

The second hole was nearly complete when Kai got up and took a trip back to the shed. By the time he returned, Liv had carefully set her second plant into the hole and had started to fill in the dirt around the roots. 

“A hardware store has to be interesting!” she said with a soft smile, “If you have people looking for help with stuff like that, does that mean you know how to put a shower together? And make it work?” And then of course, there was the question of if his home of employment were Lowe’s or Home Depot or something big like that. Both of those places seemed like a home improvement dream. 

She finished placing the dirt around her second plant and sat back a bit on her heels. It was good that the day wasn’t going to grow too much warmer. The physical activity had already caused her to start sweating. “Triton? I don’t think I know what that is. I have a group that I dance with, but outside of coven events that’s really about it.” 

“Mm,” Kai nodded, “that’s always unfortunate.” It was a really common occurrence, too - it had definitely happened to him, and more than once, too. Particularly wanting different things. As long as people communicated clearly, though, and were willing to talk, it wasn’t usually too bad. Usually.

As Liv finished off by saying that she was happy, though, and that that was the important part to her, Kai grinned widely. “Heh, exactly, right? As long as you’re happy, I’d say you’re doing well! And it’s good to hear, too, that you are.” It was a little unfortunate that her mom had different expectations, but that usually happened - different people just expected different things. As long as it didn’t get too in-the-way or out-of-hand, it was usually fine.

“Oh,” Kai chuckled a little, nodding after she talked about cross-breeds a little more, “right, that makes sense. I was also thinking just kind of with raising plants in general - need to get them planted and watered right to start with, rather than waiting for things to go wrong in the first place. Although I guess you still watch out for things to go wrong, obviously, so you can fix them then.” And you need to make sure machines are put together probably in the first place. Huh. Maybe they’re not so different, then? Maybe it’s just a matter of knowing how the plant works?

“Yeah, it is,” Kai grinned at Liv’s soft enthusiasm, and chuckled at her follow-up question. “Heh, yeah, I know how to get a shower to work - or uh, at least, how to put one in. I don’t know if I could really fix one that’s broken short of just replacing it, heh, but I might be able to? Never really tried before.” He shrugged. “I generally like to build more mechanisms and stuff, myself - trebuchets and those kinds of things.”

Liv confessed to not knowing Triton, and Kai shook his head a little with a chuckle. “Oh, sorry, I should’ve said - it’s a college near here. I take some classes there occasionally, and I’m with some groups and stuff.” He slid a plant carefully down into the little hole he’d dug, and glanced back with a raised eyebrow and a smile. “What kind of dance? What kind of coven, too, if you don’t mind me asking?”

View from the Top: Elisa & Kai

[kaiandyskyd]

sirenbuffa:

They lapsed into silence until Elisa’s spontaneous question. Kai didn’t have a favorite flower, but he spoke of some of the ones he enjoyed and she listened. She smiled slightly when he stated that he wasn’t a botanist. “I’m not sure if they flower,” she confessed. “I’ve never been able to keep plants alive, well, except for the plastic kind.” She just traveled too much. She had too much to do to care for living things

Kai explained the reasons why he was declining her help. “Hmm,” Elisa acknowledged before shifting her eyes away. It would saved her from expending energy. Although, now that she thought of it, having her pets landlords under her heel wasn’t such a bad idea….it would allow her to ensure that they were taken care of. She’d think on it.

She smiled when he thanked her. “Of course. What is the use of influence if it’s never used?” Granted, the manner in which she influenced people had altered slightly of late. Oh well, she could still get things done.

Kai held her close and kissed her cheek. It was a sweet moment and she lingered there, enjoying his company before she grew restless. “Come. We have this whole place to explore, not to mention the pier.” She smirked and raised a questioning brow. “And you mentioned being hungry?” 

Kai chuckled a little. “Yeah, me neither really - although I guess I haven’t tried for a while. Might be able to now.”

Her reaction to his response was pretty underwhelmed, and for a moment Kai even wondered if he’d made a bad move in accepting her help. He’d really only ever meant it as an idle joke - certainly didn’t want to bait her into offering things that he’d then bat away. She seemed fine with it, though. Probably just his own paranoia.

“Good point,” he chuckled, nodding. It was an important thing to mention, definitely, when talking about privilege or ability. Of course, Kai didn’t really consider himself in a situation that warranted such an extension - certainly not compared to others - but the principle was still sound. “Might as well gain some benefit from things, right?” He knew that he was granted certain things by the same systems which took other things away - from him and from others - as everyone was. You couldn’t just deny the positives, but you could try to use them to your own ends.

“Sure,” he nodded, hopping up to his feet quickly when she mentioned moving along. He chuckled when she asked after his stomach, and flashed her a grin. “Ah, don’t worry - I’m sure I won’t keel over just yet, heh! No need to rush, but maybe after we leave here we can swing by and grab something.”

There were plenty of things in here to be seen - he was sure he could hear a waterfall somewhere, and the occasional tweet as well. As they started along the path again, Kai following Elisa, one of those birds swooped out of one plant and right past him before disappearing into some hanging foliage on the other side. For a moment he recoiled, but only a moment, then went to her side again. “Heh, I wonder whether they put the birds here? Or maybe they’re just a happy accident.”

House Call - Marissa/Kai

[kaiandyskyd]

dontlooktheprivateintheeye:

“You’ve got a lot of friends, huh?” Marissa noted when Kai told her he’d learned to read enchantments from a different friend. It wasn’t a bad thing, having connections, but she hoped that none of them would take an interest in her. “Safe to assume you aren’t going to go around telling them what happened last night.” It was a statement, but she still wanted to hear the answer.

What he said made sense. It wasn’t so different from how she solved cases. She just followed pieces of information until it all made a bigger picture. “Yeah, I’ll call you in for that again. It’s useful, there are all sorts of weird artifacts that no one remembers how to work anymore. It’s good to know that there are people who can figure it out.

Marissa grinned when Kai complimented Theo. He was a great kid. She hoped that she could raise him well and give him everything he needed. That was part of why it was so important that she stay near Tiff. Tiff knew how to be a decent mother.

Kai confessed that he’d come to Chicago to get away and Marissa frowned, a familiar weight settling in her stomach. “Yeah,” she agreed roughly, “me too.” She shook her head, trying to pull herself away from the dark thoughts that tried to linger. That was always more difficult when she was tired. “Too many ghosts in New York. We needed a fresh start.”

He’d only found out about magic recently, Marissa had forgotten that. “Sounds like you got more out of this place than you bargained for.” She raised a brow and glanced over at him. The road was relatively free of traffic and straight. “You don’t regret it?”

Kai chuckled. “Yeah, fair few I guess - not all current, necessarily. This guy moved off actually, about a year or so ago. Went to open up shop somewhere I think.” He shrugged. “Y’know, people come, people go.”

She asked about what information he’d be spreading - didn’t ask, exactly, but prompted him for it. “No, of course not - not my secret to tell. In time I uh...” he rolled a shoulder, looking out of the side window, “I’ll probably try to tell them some of what I’m starting to figure out based off of it, but so far as anybody else is concerned, you don’t have a mother as far as I know. Hell, I won’t even tell people I know you if you don’t want. Totally up to you, as far as I’m concerned - there’s a difference between honesty and betraying other people’s secrets.”

He nodded when she said she’d call him back. That was good - in his opinion, she’d taken a few big risks and done him a big favor. She didn’t necessarily seem that willing to let him pay it back right off, but he was happy to take his time with it. He grinned at the way her face lit up when he mentioned the kid. That was really nice.

It wasn’t just her words that sent his thoughts down dark paths, it was her tone as well. Her whole demeanor, really, and Kai cleared his throat softly. “Heh, yep, uh...sounds about right.” Ghosts. One in a mirror with bleeding eyes and- Kai caught a glance of her in the reflection of the window and it made his heart leap, but he shut his eyes and let the Forest in for a second. Better.

Shrugging, he chuckled a little and grinned back to her. “Yeah, probably - definitely some stuff I never expected. Regret it, though? Nah - I mean, firstly, not like it’d do any good. Secondly, no reason to! Got some great friends, handful of great partners, a fine apartment that I share with a raccoon.” He snickered, shaking his head with a grin. “All in all, things are going pretty well.”

Even if sometimes he woke up in a cold sweat and couldn’t remember why. Or, more worryingly, if last night he’d stayed awake in a cold sweat...and could remember it all. “How about you?”

New Age Knights: Mia & Kai

[kaiandyskyd]

miaswordmaiden:

Mia grinned and threw her arms around Kai, only briefly to assure herself that he was okay. “I hurt its hand, but yeah, no progress other than that.”

And Kai was running out of juice. Shit. “Umm,” Mia licked her lips and looked around. “Okay, I’ll try to get the others clear and maybe just the two of us?” She trailed off. This was sounded more and more like a suicide mission. At least the others would get free.

“I’ll get them to leave.” She could do that. They were listening to her already. It was amazing what confidence did, especially in an uncertain situation.

“Hey guys!” mia cried out, hopefully loud enough for everyone to hear. “Apparently this has malfunctioned! They’re saying we should just get clear before it hurts anyone else! Go evacuate with the others! Let’s go!”

She really didn’t want to be alone with that thing, but Kai needed to be able to use his magic. She went to Sir Richard, kneeling beside him. “You guys go ahead and go.” she told his protectors before she smiled down at the man.

Mia waited for the others to leave before she murmured, “Things are about to get really weird, but it’s okay.” She grinned so maybe he’d believe her. “Hey, can I borrow your sword?”

“Yeah,” Kai sighed swiftly and then turned to face Mia with slightly wider eyes. “Yeah! Yeah, that could- that’s a good idea. Why didn’t we think of that before? Heh,” he shook his head, chuckling a little. That was how things went, though - everything looked great in hindsight.

Well, everything that worked.

Mia had an ingenious solution to get people to leave: telling them to. “Yeah, the uh,” he tossed in for added effect, “the beast is vanquished or whatever. Sorry if things got a little out of hand, they’ll need to have a look at some things.”

The knights moved to leave, some muttering swears but at least a few also saying things like “cool idea” or “looking forward to some improvements”. For a moment, Kai wondered about whether they could arrange for something like what he originally had thought that this was - but those were thoughts for another time.

One knight, though, couldn’t leave - injured, from the looks of things, and Mia was already with him. Catching her eye, Kai smiled and flashed her a look that he hoped said ‘distract him?’

Then he turned back to the creature. Without any knights around it seemed to have lost a lot of its anger, returning to something more like the placidity and indifference it had first had when it came out of the woods. Of course, he couldn’t count on that lasting, and it was tugging the ropes off of its legs, disentangling itself.

Okay. Okay, this could work. Things want to go home, right? That’s...that’s totally believable. Okay.

With a nervous glance back toward the knight, Kai held his hands out in front of himself. He took a few breaths, but... but he just couldn’t feel the connection here. Not quite. Nervously, he jogged a little further away - better - and then off to the left, there it was.

Kai sighed, grinning. Now he could do it. He held his hands out and summoned his strength, reaching out for the very fabric of reality. “Fenna Illurambar,” he sighed, and though it took the Way a few seconds longer than normal to stabilize, it seemed, it did stabilize at least. Shimmering and otherworldly - expectedly so, he supposed.

Okay now, come on, go home. Go home, you big old...whatever-you-are. Try not to come back. It’s dangerous for everyone.

Medieval AU - A Harry in Time

[kaiandyskyd]

harry-meepmeep-dresden:

“I… I think I could stay the night. Not really the safest trip to take in the dark and the night’s coming fast,” my cheeks felt warm again as I thought about it. “No telling if I’d fall ill due to my injuries so having a second pair of eyes on me for a day might not be a bad idea. That is if you really don’t mind?” 

Granted with all my burns it likely wouldn’t be the best idea to do anything, but some parts didn’t understand that. Resting would be a great idea and that way if something happened or the burns got infected during the night I’d have someone else there. Mouse and Mister could survive. Probably better without me to be honest. They just tolerated me and we all kept each other warm. 

Kai grinned warmly, nodding along to Harry’s words. “Of course I don’t mind. Getting toward dark and we’re having a meal anyway - better to sleep here than halfway there, right?” He chuckled. “Guarantee it’ll be warmer, too.”

The only problem was, he didn’t actually have another bed, per se. Something could maybe be arranged - but it’d be warmest if they shared one, anyway. Not that it was the depths of winter or anything like that, but still, sometimes the nights chilled pretty deeply.

There wasn’t much food left on the table, anyway. Kai picked up what was left of the bread and gestured to the cheese. “Go on and grab that, I’ll show you the bedroom. The outhouse is - heh, well, out behind the house, about twenty paces, if you need at any point. Got plenty for bedding, linens and a few furs even if the night hits that hard.”

He led the way as he spoke. It wasn’t a huge house - wasn’t even very large, only a few rooms, but it was a little convoluted. It had been built sort of around the forge so it didn’t follow the most sensible arrangement. “Suppose I could pile up some of those furs and offer you the bed proper, if you need...” Kai rolled a shoulder, taking a bite from the hunk of bread, “but the nights can get pretty cold sometimes, can’t they?”
