Baki Men's Favorite Place to Kiss (pt.1)
Characters Featured: Jack Hanma, Baki Hanma, Kozue Matsumoto, Katsumi Orochi, Retsu Kaiou, Jun Guevara
Content Notes: she/her pronouns, rushed writing, nothing tbh just fluffy fluff!! Not proofread, so ignore mistakes... Who should I include in pt.2?
Honestly, I cannot see this man really kissing his partner, for both practical and personality reasons. First of all, Jack, like a lot of men on this list, is... Huge. He's quite literally a giant, and I could most definitely reassure you that he's bigger lol. Because of this, it makes affection a little difficult, as either he has to hunch over, or you have to strain your neck in all weird positions just to meet his eyes.
But, secondly, I cannot imagine Jack being insanely lovey-dovey with his darling. Of course, you're his beloved, his lover, so he's going to be softer in comparison to other people... But Jack's soft is still considered rough to most people.
He's a fighter at heart, and I think he struggles being soft, even when he wants to, y'know?
And so, I think that Jack is more likely to express physical affection through ruffling your hair or pinching your cheek. I think that Jack succumbs to cuteness aggression frequently whenever you're involved.
His large, calloused fingers will tug at your cheek, grinning like a wolf as he teases you for having such pudgy cheeks, doll. Look good enough to eat, don't you?
Sometimes, when you're having slow mornings. The sun is sneaking through the crack of your bedroom curtains, a sliver of light peeking through. Your cheek squished against Jack's chest, head tilted to the side, steady breaths coming out in puffs. Jack'll have an arm around your waist, already awake, and just marinating in the peaceful moment. A rarity for a man like him.
His hand, previously resting on your lower back, will sneak up your spine in a lazy caress, stopping when it reaches your tilted head. He'll tuck your hair out of your face or adjust your bonnet so it's not slipping too far down your forehead. His thumb will rub across your temple, smoothing across your brow, as he calmly takes in your features. It's not a kiss, but it's enough to bring a soft smile to your sleeping features.
Always playful, Baki has a habit of messing with you, poking your side, tickling the back of your knee (how he knew you were ticklish there, you have no idea...), or sweeping you off your feet whenever given the chance. He really cannot help himself. He loves the look of faux-offended shock that spreads across your pretty features.
Baki is childish in nature, so he likes the attention, especially when it's your attention.
And so, I think he'd like silly kisses! Quick pecks to your cheek, rushed and messy. They're carefree, but they always bring a smile to your face as he quickly pulls you in, cupping your cheek, planting that kiss, and then he's gone!
He knows it gets you going, getting riled up from his antics, and that's just the way he likes it.
I can also see Baki biting his darling's cheek lol. Once more, just to mess with them. It'd be random and in passing.
You'll be lazing on the couch, watching some shitty reality T.V. where a bunch of twenty-somethings are shoved into a house to live together (a trainwreck, really), and suddenly, your poor cheek is being attacked!
Baki will lean over the back of the couch, his calloused, warm hands cupping your cheek and tilting your head back. His mouth will chomp down on your cheek, playfully tugging on it softly. Not enough to hurt, just some pressure.
Of course, you'll squeal out a Baki! What the hell! Still giggling and swatting at his hands. And, in Baki fashion, he just laughs, pulling away, and continuing on with his day, as if he didn't just take a bite of you!!!
My bbg, I love her sm. She's a totaalll sweetheart. I think Kozue would give a sweet kiss on the cheek, maybe on the tip of your nose, too! Her soft hand will cup your cheek, caressing the skin under your eye as she leans in close. A small smile on her lips as she presses a kiss to the tip of your nose.
It's not rushed, and it's light, soft, and homey. It's comfortable and drawn out, as she settles you and her into a relaxing hold. I don't think Kozue likes to rush her relationships, more so enjoying a peaceful hold than something super chaotic (though I don't think she'd mind some playfulness every once in a while).
The two of you will be on a stroll, bags in hand, as you'd just finished a successful shopping spree. Your thumb rubbing across the back of her hand, and it's nice. A carefree conversation flows between the two of you, chatting about the weather, a shirt Kozue just bought, or a new coffee shop that's just opened up.
Somehow, in some way, you end up in a park, meandering through the walking trails, hand-in-hand. Settling on a park bench, your shoulders press against one another, Kozue's head resting against your shoulder. A peaceful silence falls between the two of you, not a word needed.
And as you shut your eyes, wanting to enjoy the moment, you feel Kozue shift. Her body shifting to face you, and her lips hover, hesitating just for a second before planting a gentle kiss on your cheek. A smile spreads across your lips as you hear her whisper, Love you.
It's not loud, but it's Kozue, so it's all you need.
Hmmmm, I feel like Katsumi doesn't necessarily have any major preferences. As long as he's in contact with you, able to enjoy your company and feel your body against his, then he's content. I wouldn't say that he's entirely picky when it comes to affection, as he just wants attention from his darling, y'know?
I do think that Katsumi tends to fall into the typical categories when it comes to affection. He likes to hold hands, likes to sling his arm around your shoulders, pulling you close as you wander through the streets.
However, I can see Katsumi enjoying a low, long-lasting, and classic kiss to the lips. One where his hands cup your cheeks, dragging you close, as his thumb rubs the skin under your eye. A boyish smile spreads across his cheeks as his eyes stare into yours, taking in... Everything. Your scrunched cheeks. Your batting lashes, trailing down to your parted lips.
His head tilts down, and he firmly plants his lips to yours. In response, you place your hands over his, melting into the, albeit, clumsy kiss. You should feel Katsumi's lips curve into a smile, and you giggle against his in return.
It's lighthearted but comforting, affirming that you're there and present, paying attention to him, him, him!!!
I can also imagine Katsumi doing this in front of the Shinshinkai members, having no shame in expressing his love for you (much to your dismay and total embarrassment). Right before every sparring session, class, and fight, he'll pull you into a deep, stable kiss 'cause you never know when it'll be the last, so he makes sure to give it his all every time.
Okay, another one that I cannot imagine kissing, at least casually. However, I think that Retsu's reasoning is different than Jack's. Retsu isn't overly insecure about himself, like Jack, nor is he grumpy all the time.
Retsu's just shy. Of course, he's not some cutesy-pootie at least, not in the sense that he cannot handle himself in a relationship, or that he's not emotionally mature and aware of his feelings and how to handle them. Retsu is a grown man, a trained fighter who's learned to understand himself, learned to be uncomfortable.
However... That experience is with fighting, with physical discomforts, not emotional vulnerabilities, y'know?
And I don't think that "uncomfortable" is the correct term for how Retsu would feel or act. It's more so inexperience. Retsu's not used to interacting with others in a vulnerable way, like kissing. Not to say he doesn't enjoy it or anything! It's just new, and he has to learn how to navigate himself in a relationship, understanding your likes and dislikes and such.
Whoops, I'm rambling... Overall, I think that Retsu would be the kind of guy to plant a simple kiss on your forehead or the crown of your head. It's easy access and quick.
The two of you will be lounging in your shared living room, as you usually do. It's the evening, and the sun is setting. Both of you have had a long week, so just existing in one another's presence is all you need. You don't need chatty conversations or constant touching.
Simply leaning against one another as you lounge in each other's arms is enough. Retsu is reading a book, while you were scrolling on your phone. Was it productive? God no, but did either of you care? Eh, also no.
Your head rests against Restu's cheek as you scroll mindlessly, occasionally chuckling at a silly cat video (my personal favorite). After a while, thirty minute or so, Retsu will shift underneath you, his hand drumming against your waist.
A pressure is applied to the crown of your head, and you lean into it. Retsu's lips pressing against your hair as he murmurs to you with a smile in his voice, patting your hip, Up now, let me make us some tea, yes?
Ever the romantic, Jun has a tendency to be a little dramatic with his affections. His hand always finding yours, no matter how busy either of you is. His fingers will tangle with yours, bringing your hand to his face as he peppers kisses on your knuckles.
An infuriatingly handsome smile crosses his features as he stares into your eyes, grinning against your knuckles. Ever amused, you roll your eyes, watching as he trails his lips up your hand, lingering at the center of your palm.
His beard tickles your skin, causing you to laugh softly. His other hand, always on you, moves to trail up your side. His fingers drumming against your clothed skin, resting against your lower back to tug you close. His palm rests flat against your back as he closes the distance, allowing him more room to lead his neverending kisses up your arm and to your neck.
You'll squeal, laughing freely as his beard scratches the sensitive skin of your neck, and Jun will just chuckle against your jaw. His body hunched over yours as you sway side-to-side.
Similar to Katsumi, Jun has no shame when it comes to showcasing his love for you in public. However, unlike Katsumi, I think that Jun actively looks for it, wanting to show you off to his people, to Mr. Unchained, especially Mr. Unchained...
What? Can't a man want to show off his lady?
