🎃 halloween | sei & helios - the nun @irrwicht

“So, how many of your friends are going to be at this party?” Helios calls out as he moves through Sei’s small dorm room, grocery bag hanging from one arm and the crooks of both elbows full with a large parcel wrapped in dark grey plastic. 

The god had been aware of the tradition of Halloween for some time, partaking a little here and there but not to this extent - not to the extent of buying himself a costume so he could accompany Sei to a party! Even if he was being the annoying follower of his much cooler boyfriend, Helios was excited to join them in mortal frivolity around this special time - and he gets to dress up! 

Having watched some of The Nun film (mostly cuddled up into Sei’s chest, admittedly), the blonde had made the decision that he wanted to go as a spooky priest. Plus, well, it was a way to tease the religion that had over taken his own and now called him and his followers Pegan. It was a complex issue but this was a little fun and silliness! Having set down the groceries Helios sets to hacking at the parcel with a pair of scissors, resting his thighs against Sei’s bed as he unwraps what he expects to be a spooky priest costume, but pauses with a frown, as instead his eyes land on... sexy nun?! 

“-eehh?” He lets out the noise of surprise, dropping the wrapping as he looks down at the picture of a pretty blonde woman in a short, provocative and more than likely salaciously offensive tight nun costume.. habit and all. This isn’t what he ordered! “They got my order wrong!” He calls out to his boyfriend, lower lip now pouting as his shoulders slump. Halloween was tomorrow night, he doesn’t have time to get something new delivered! “They sent me a girls costume..” he huffs, now well and truly pouting.

Ah, he was still as pretty as the first day they met. With the soul floating freely above, the two of them simply enjoyed their company, completely ignoring Sei's actual body hugging the deity tight as he slept. "What are we gonna do about that? I mean the body- I mean me." Silver hair looked a bit more messy than usual, the ikiryo having a long night behind him already. "Should we just tell him- I mean me? Is it gonna break his brain? I MEAN MINE"

"Mmm.." Smiling sleepily, slowly stretching out tired limbs under soft, warm sheets, Helios' gold trusses spread over the pillow as he turns to nuzzle his cheek into it and enjoy the slightly altered vision of his boyfriend above him. Sometimes it was easy enough to see how they were different people. Their lack of shared memories making for different experiences, that shaped them somewhat differently, but they both still had that adorable, hopeless puppy look.

"It sounds like it's short firing your circuits enough" he teases softly with a chuckle. In that moment reminded of how similar they were. Sei was likely to be just as confused by it all as the ikiryo formed from his soul.

Stretching his arms up a little, his chest arches in the sleeping human's hold as he gives himself a good, long stretch before laying them back down again, one returning to Sei's hair to stroke his scalp a little and the other on his arm. "I wish you could feel me.." He murmurs softly to the boy floating above him, someone he has never really managed to touch before. The few times he had, and the time he'd forced it, he'd sent the ikiryo rocketing away from him, and hadn't been brave enough to try anything again.

The only way he would feel, was if Helios found a way to stitch them back together.

It felt a little different this time. Possibly because he and Sei had finally taken it to that physical level, where as with this version of him, they couldn't even touch. @irrwicht

Helios do you think Sei would consider the idea of filming sex tapes? Since you mentioned liking the idea.

Jumping as he hears the voice, Helios looks around in surprise before relaxing a little with a small huff of breath. “Oh I didn’t see you there…” Turning back to what he was trying to cook for the dancer to eat when he got home, the God’s ears quickly redden as he hears the question and he’s left to splutter slightly.

“Now where did you hear a thing like that?!” He snips, far too defensively for it to not be true, and by now his cheeks were a nice ruby flush. Did he want to create OnlyFans content with Sei, have sex with him on camera and gain thousands of fans all over the globe, watching them have sex and hearing the noises Sei can pull from him? … yes, maybe! Did he think Sei would go for it? No!

“Sei is quite… reserved-“ he answers before picking up his knife again to continue cutting the root vegetable. “-and shy!” He quickly adds on, it would be a big no and he wouldn’t want to suggest it unless Sei think him some sort of sec maniac!

It needs to be noted that Sei's Ikiryo was one of the harmless ones, happy to just wander the nights with little mischief. But when faced with emotions such as jealousy, there was an aura to the being like never before. Something dark, one that could ruin lives if it wanted to. A curse was on the tip of his tongue quite literally so, though held back by the sight of Helios' eyes. Cursing someone that was special to his sun? He couldn't do that.

Instead, pain took over his expression, mostly reflected in his eyes while his face looked grim. "More special than me?" Speaking it put another bout of force into his body, one that had him rush to hover over the sleeping Sei in the blink of an eye. Of course he couldn't recognize himself, after all he didn't have a reflection to know what he looked like. I should just possess this one and eat his soul. A fleeting idea of rage. "What makes him special?"

Helios had never really thought of the wandering soul as dangerous, but his back straightens a little where he is sat, as Sei's spirit moves so quickly, rushing towards them it blows back his hair. For the briefest of moments, he wants to reach out to shield his sleeping love. The flash of panic and danger that did not feel like his cloud at all. Had he done real damage getting so close to both sides of him?

"The way he looks at me" Helios murmurs softly in reply to the second question, as his hand gently reaches out to take the spirit's chin and turn his gaze to him, not his own body with which right now he holds so much resentment. "As if I am precious, the way you look at me now" he murmurs gently, smoothing his thumb over the spirits cheek. "I promised I would find you" he whispers softly, holding his gaze intently. "... and I did".

"It would save soap?" Still bashful, the comment did take Sei off guard enough to let his curiosity shine through. "I don't understand how, but maybe you could..demonstrate."

"-because" Helios begins, cooing softly as he steps closer, fingers lightly twitching to touch as he draws his hands up and lets them slip under the hem of Sei's top, the tips tracing his lovely stomach and warm skin as his grin widens. "My soapy hands can put soap all over my body and yours. So we use less soap, wouldn't that be a good idea?" He hums, pushing a little more as, after all Sei had initiated it this time, and leans up to press kisses along his jaw as hands roam up higher.

"What do you say? Hm?" He asks, fingers now running down to Sei's belt buckle but giving him plenty of time to call out a cool down, if he still wasn't comfortable yet. Just a shower, but Helios was excited at the prospect of getting to take all of this off.

[elysiumxii]

Helios, would you wear cute or sexy outfits to seduce a partner? A combination of both? Or is dressing up not your thing?

“Do you think that will work?” With a dip of his chin, Helios sets the stranger with an intense gaze and he murmurs the reply under his breath. “Do you think- what… what are we considering sexy? Should I get something see through or… what?” With a hand he gestures over his chest, thinking mesh… nipples, maybe that would work?

“Cute like, little sailor outfit maybe?” The god continues to theorise as his eyes lift and he taps his chin. “What would be like…?” He murmurs thoughtfully. Anything that would get Sei in the mood, he is in to.

“is there a reason you’ve been following me for an hour?” 

“O-Oh..” Helios mutters softly as those eyes settle upon him. Now they had the clarity of wakefulness and they did not look upon him with the same, soft crinkle at their edges as he was used to. They were skeptical, confused and a little distrusting. What had replaced sweet, endearing curiosity and admiration had the god’s eyes lower as he feels diminished in the sight of someone he now realises, he doesn’t know at all. 

Weeks he had been looking, surfing social media profiles and using sketches from what he had remembered of his sweet cloud’s face, rendered digitally to find him - and he had! The elation he had felt, watching that waking body walk with solidity he wasn’t used to, had quickly faded to a gut wrenching nothing as soon as the man had rounded on him, and not even a glimmer of recognition met him. His light once more extinguished as he tries to think up an excuse. 

He had been following Sei for a little while, watching him interact with his friends, bristle against the cold and laugh out loud - it was all so endearing to watch him interact with the world around him. Maybe it had gone on longer than he’d meant and maybe he had stood out more than he had intended to and not been as subtle as he’d hoped. “I’m sorry, I thought perhaps I recognised you from somewhere-” he answers, peering up a little. Dressed in an over sized puffer jacket against the chilly winter air, tufts of blonde curls visible under a hat and fingers wrapped in mittens - nothing felt as cold as to be spoken to like that by someone who previous had had nothing but sweet words for him.

Tethered to the older, the ikiryo found a bit of rest in his usually so active demeanour. Rested comfortably, his arms held on tight as his head found rest in the crook of Helios' neck. Fingers traced mindlessly over the exposed skin just underneath the upslipped hem of his shirt. "Mn.." Humming while his thoughts didn't follow the description fully, a chuckle could be heard eventually. "I wonder what you taste like. Does sunshine have a taste?"

Tilting his head a little to smile down at the other, Helios does wonder how much Sei had managed to piece together about him. Sure, he'd told the spirit that his name meant the sun, and he'd even glowed a little, subtle, on occasion, when Sei had him absolutely brimming with good feeling, usually when he was complimenting him. Though all of that could be put down to a trick of lamp light - how receptive would his floating cloud be to the idea that he wasn't really just some 20-something guy, living his life hopefully not too far from him... but was actually a god.

"You can't taste me at all?" He asks softly with a turn of his head to look down at him. He was able to touch the other's spirit form because he was a god, couldn't he give him more and pass on his taste? If he really concentrated? Wouldn't that be wonderful!
