“Um… I’m sorry I didn’t have more time to prepare and tidy up… I just got back from Japan this morning so I’m still kind of jet-lagged…”
Rubbing his neck a little awkwardly, Yuri stepped over to his still packed luggage and opened the front compartment of his carry-on, fingers slipping past the silver medal -silver medal silver medal SILVER MEDAL he still couldn’t believe it- and sliding around the sleek black case behind it- a collar case, quite clearly- before turning to present it to Liam
“I um… picked this up wile I was there… I know this is just a um… pretend thing… but I was… maybe a little over enthusiastic…”
Yuri wasn’t really an impulsive person, but an adrenaline high like the silver gleaming brightly around his neck had pushed him to splurge a little and buy a nice collar- black leather with a pure silver ring in the center, kind of plain but still nicer than anything he could usually afford, especially for something that was just temporary
He had breifly considered gold but had quickly talked himself out of it, there were alot of things wrong with that idea, not the least of wich being the price tag and not the most of wich being the symbolism of what that precious metal meant to him
Maybe gold should wait for his actual claim…
“I know it’s really plain, but… do you like it…?”

Liam looked around Yuri’s suite, surveying everything as he tried to get a feel for the set up, and who the Dominant was as a person. They hadn’t had the chance to spend much time together aside from a few shorter interactions, and honestly Liam was excited to get to know the other man.Â
“It’s alright, you know. You don’t need to apologize to me. I can…Help with that you know. If you wanted. Sir.” It had been a long time since Liam had submitted to someone, or even offered service, leading to the nerves he now felt coursing through him. Even still, he wanted to do his best during the mock claim, and to prove how grateful he was for the opportunity.Â
When Yuri pulled the collar from his bag, Liam nearly stumbled backward. While the Dominant continued to apologize, all Liam could think was that it was the most beautiful piece he’d seen. As both a person and as a submissive, Liam wasn’t hard to please. He didn’t have a huge set of expectations, and he absolutely wasn’t going to be picky when it came to things like this.Â
A soft smile grew on his features. “Thank you, Sir. It is more than perfect. I’m honored and excited to wear it. It’s beautiful, really.” He paused, chewing his lip while he thought. “Should I kneel, Sir? Or would you prefer I stand whle you place it?”
“Oh um... I’m just.. really awkward, I apologize alot, sometimes I don’t even know what I’m apologizing for,” he confessed, a bit pink-faced
It probably wasn’t exactly what people wanted to hear in a Dominant, but... well, Yuri had little control over over his anxiety, and anxiety could push a person to do some pretty odd things...
“O-Oh you don’t have to, I mean... you can if you want? But it’s not expected of you, I’m not.. really someone who requires much of my subs in terms of chores, I know some subs like them though so if you’re someone who does then I can choose some for you...? S-Sorry, I got um... kind of off track... like I said, jet-lag,”
And ofcourse Yuri was someone who was especially prone to that, any other time he would have slept right through the next twelve hours, but ofcourse this time was quite a bit different
“I’m so happy to hear that,” Yuri sighed with releif, his expression blooming into a light, adoring smile as he carefully lifted the collar out of the box and undid the clasp, taking a step closer
“Um, standing is fine, I don’t have alot of preferences or anything, I just want you to be comfortable,” he explained, very carefully wrapping the leather around Liam’s neck and clasping it into place, stepping back just enough to take a better look at it
“Yeah... that looks really nice, I’m glad for that,” he confirmed with a nod, gesturing to the edge of the bed
“Um... do you want to sit down? We can talk about this entire... arrangement... and get to know eachother a bit better?”
