[towards_okeanos]

[He could take him here. Tear those clothes off him and just take him. Fuck him senseless on the spot. That’s what his almost feral instincts now scream at him.
But no. He’s having too much fun watching. Simply observing how far his love would go if only he would let him. And Iskandar is so going to let him.
They are both out of their usual roles here. Waver behaving like nothing could stop him. Iskandar holding back his ravenous hunger with unseen restraint and just letting himself experience Waver’s attention for once.
What Iskandar is not holding back are the sounds of appreciation. From the moans getting progressively longer and louder as he keeps his mouth on Iskandar’s cock, Waver can easily tell how well all of this attention is being received.

Iskandar’s eyes follow the trail of the scarf, a splash of red, floating slowly to the floor. He raises a hand to Waver’s cheek, wiping a little string of drool with his thumb.]

A smashing hit. Do continue.

[hypomeneo]

[Waver's jacket hits the floor next, followed by his tie, as he makes a little tease of shedding these next few articles of clothing. He instinctively leans into Iskandar's touch like a cat as his husband wipes away the drool with the pad of his thumb. His eyes cant up; this is how far the strip tease is going to go.

For now.

Still looking up, burning with hunger, he leans forward to continue to suck Iskandar off. The only thing he does before is squeeze his husband's cock before starting to pleasure him all over again. No getting off yet. Edging might not have been in the game plan to begin with, but it is now. When Iskandar comes, Waver wants Iskandar to come hard. Fingers press behind balls against his king's perineum. Then Waver lightly scrapes his nails along the delicate skin as he ghosts his touch back to Iskandar's erection, lips continuing to work their magic. Mmm... he tastes good...

He stops briefly for another squeeze and whispers:]

Soon, καρδιά μου, soon.

[As he begins to strip off the rest of his clothes and bare himself for Iskandar.]

[towards_okeanos]

[Long he had planned it, long has he laboured to erode all those senseless barriers that made his beloved hold back, question his own wants and wishes, to fail to see himself as the beauty he is. For Iskandar to see his plans come to fruition, the effects of his efforts, it is an endless joy.

A wise woman once told him that not everyone is comfortable with their needs and wishes, not everyone is comfortable with their own body but they too can learn. With great care and patience, they can be taught to. They just need space, and time, and encouragement. It may seem like a lot to ask but nothing is ever too much for the one in love. Iskandar will spare no effort on his beautiful husband. He is going to provide him with all the encouragement Waver may need. At times that might mean relinquishing control, letting go of initiative, leashing his feral instincts, and holding back his insatiable hunger. To let Waver explore on his own what is that he wants and likes. To discover that not only the things that are done to him can bring him pleasure but also those that he can do himself.

So he folds his arms under his head and just lets Waver do what he wishes. It is no sacrifice when it feels so good.]

Yes...

[He breathes out hand reaching to touch Waver's now naked shoulder.]

Take... your time, love... You're doing well. So, so well.

[Pleasure deferred comes back twice as intense and he's already is half-delirious, drunk on it, and it's going to get better.]

[hypomeneo]

[There's a starving moan as Iskandar's hand caresses the bare skin of Waver's shoulder. Focusing on his husband and neglecting himself has made this contact electric and the praise just shoots more lightning through his veins. Fully naked now, Waver reaches for the bottle by Iskandar's hand. Now he's never done this himself, but he knows what's needed.

He unscrews and spills the oil on his fingers, scent of roses and sandalwood filling the air. He reaches for Iskandar's cock to give him a handjob while he slicks his husband up, while the other dips behind him to work himself open and make himself ready. Waver groans as he fingers himself, giving a show even as he pleasures and prepares the both of them for their union.

It doesn't take too long. Their earlier bout of passion helped. Slowly, regally, he climbs up onto Iskandar's lap like it's a throne, drawing the moment out just to stoke his husband's hunger more. Waver's tongue flickers over his lips, hungry and beyond shame in his lust now, before closing to kiss Iskandar deeply.]

I think I will, love.

[As one hand helps line himself up with Iskandar's cock and he slowly lowers himself until the tip of it is just... touching his entrance. Then, slowly, slowly down so he can feel each inch fill himself within. So Iskandar can savor the tight cling of the heat of Waver's body slowly enveloping him. Waver's panting in need by the time he finally sinks to the base of his husband's erection. His fully hard cock rubs against Iskandar's abs.]

I want us to enjoy every moment of this.

[towards_okeanos]

[It was a possibility. Iskandar didn’t think Waver would go this far but then he does.
There are few fantasies that he hasn’t shared with his husband yet. Waver coming at him like a lust-crazed maenad, crawling on him, impaling himself on his cock, is one of the most often repeating. If Iskandar has said nothing it’s not because there’s anything wrong with it but because he thought it was too much to ask. And because if he did it wouldn’t be the same. It would be Waver fulfilling another of his King’s wishes. It would miss the point.

To have him do it now, out of his own initiative. See Waver work himself open for him. The blazing heat of their kiss. The concentration on Waver’s face melting into ecstasy as he slowly lowers himself. This is better than any dream.

It renders Iskandar breathless, entranced in awe, lost in pleasure, unable to form words. It makes him balance on the edge for a few dangerous moments barely able to hold back. Not yet. Not when Waver has already given him so much. Iskandar wants them to come together.
So instead he pulls his husband down for another kiss then slides his hands down to Waver’s hips to steady him.]

At your pace, beloved, I’ll hold you.

[This already a night of miracles. Iskandar won’t spoil it no matter how much his muscles twitch, his hunger rages, how much he yearns to take the lead back and flip their positions. He won’t do it. This moment is too rare, too precious. He doesn’t want to lose it.]

Start whenever you are ready.

[hypomeneo]

[Oh, it's already good without moving. Just feeling Iskandar's girth filling him up. His skin against Waver's own. Each point of contact crackles wildfire through him, and Waver half moans, half whimpers in sheer need against Iskandar's mouth as they share another searing kiss.

Iskandar's hands settle on Waver's hips, and Waver's hands rest against Iskandar's chest both for extra stability and to play with his nipples as the Caster's hips start to rise and fall, seeking a rhythm intense and powerful. He wants to feel his husband move within him to the last fiber of his being. Wants to feel the friction of his cock rubbing against Iskandar's belly, leaving wet trails behind as evidence of his pleasure.

Wants to hear his husbands moans and groans and growls of pleasure, and feel his hands tighten on him. Know it's because he's doing it to him. It drives his own hunger on, leaves him both drunk on sensation and sound and starving for more...]

Iskandar... Iskandar...

[He's panting. He's close. Waver arches, head and hair tossed back, his husband's name a mantra of worship on his lips, as the pace picks up.]

Iskandar!

[towards_okeanos]

[Iskandar's moans and cries of pleasure join with Waver's as he finally lets his desire roam free. It's as if a dam was broken and there's nothing that can stop the deluge. His grip tightens on Waver's hips as they fall and he thrusts up to meet them, to sink into the heat of his lover's body. Ignites the fire that melts not only their bodies but their souls together.
Love and pleasure; that force primaeval the lights the stars and beats in the hearts of every living creature. The pulse of life itself, sacred and transcendental.]

Εὐοῖ! Waver!

[With that cry he comes; the name of his love, a secret spell he utters amidst the spasms of pleasure over and over again. Each one like a lightning strike setting his nerves ablaze. Time stops, all of existence narrows to space shared by their bodies. All is light, all is fire.]

Waver...

[Iskandar exhales. There is not a muscle, not a cell in his body that does not tremble with delight and exhaustion. That blissful type of tiredness that one can only experience after crashing from the heights of pleasure.]

That was incredible, love.

[The only concern on his mind now is that he wasn't careful enough and bruised Waver's hips when he held him.]

[hypomeneo]

[It's ecstasy. Bright, all consuming ecstasy. Waver comes with Iskandar's name on his lips, world whiting out in light and fire. His hips move as he shakes, milking every last drop of pleasure from Iskandar, and slowly still as the world returns to him.

He's left quite a mess of both of them. Waver shakily grins, sweeping a sweaty lock off Iskandar's brow before pulling off and cuddling close, keeping his hair from getting in the results of their lovemaking.]

Mmmm... [A purr, while he blushes shyly.] Something certainly got into me. Besides the obvious. [His fingers stroke Iskandar's hip.] It's welcome to get into me again. I really enjoyed that.

[Someone looked very good underneath him, even as he goes redder at the dirty talk and double entendre. There's a few marks fading, Servant healing whisking any evidence away. Not really bruises, just the usual aftermath of their passionate bouts.]

[towards_okeanos]

[That's what was missing from the overall excellent experience. This closeness. Iskandar wraps his arms tightly around his husband as Waver snuggles close. That's better.]

I'd even say, more than welcome.

[Iskandar chuckles. Now that's some talk he's really happy to hear. But there's no rush. Now that they satiated their hunger in all possible ways it's time to just be. He coils a strand of Waver's hair around his hand. So smooth. He missed this so much. He hasn't even realised how much.]

And I can finally wash your hair properly.

[They were in a hurry before dinner so he didn't get to do this the way he likes then. Now? Now, it's different. Iskandar triple checked if they packed all the necessary hair products before they left for vacation. Doing shopping for hair conditioner in a remote tourist resort could prove difficult. Oh, he was sure something will be available but there was a low chance it would be anything to his liking. So now he has everything to make as much of a ceremony of this as he likes. Most importantly he has the most vital ingredient: time. Proper hair routine takes time. Lately, time was not something they had in abundance.]

[hypomeneo]

[Waver leans up to press his lips against Iskandar's jaw. He sighs content as his husband's arms wrap around him, squeezing tight, just listening to the soothing beat of the other man's heart. The afterglow has left him in an indolent mood, pleasure humming through him and leaving him only with the desire for continued closeness.]

We're due another shower aren't we? [That said they're sweaty and the mess Waver's made of them is starting to get... disgusting. The motivation for getting up and getting clean is starting to mount. Waver's voice lilts up with anticipation.] It could use a good scrub. And a very thorough brushing.

[It's a ritual Iskandar loves and an expression of love, care, and family for Waver, especially the brushing. It reminds him of Gray who would similarly fuss over his locks. No matter how long Iskandar spends on it, it always leaves him warm and content inside. It's time just for them to be together and enjoy each other's presence. They haven't had enough of it lately; Waver intend to bask in the experience.]

[towards_okeanos]

We do.

[Iskandar is quick to agree though less eager to actually move. He's way too comfortable still. He tilts his head down chasing after the lips he's just felt on his jaw. He can never have enough of Waver. A thousand times he can say this and it would never stop being true. Not only his lips. Not only his body, even though he adores it completely. The whole of him. The way he moves, how he speaks, the way his eyes darken when he thinks and how they light up when he smiles. His smile, rare as it is. Iskandar could swear he falls in love with him anew each time his husband smiles.

How extravagantly generous gift is this time, their time together.]

But we would have to move to get there.

[Or they could teleport. Even if Iskandar doubts in his ability to hold his focus on such task for long enough. His mind is still hazy with the kind of blissful grogginess that belongs to late mornings after an especially rich feast... and that comparison feels suddenly entirely appropriate. For a feast it was, and a marvellous one at that. Even if he is not drunk on wine but on pleasure of an entirely different sort.]

[hypomeneo]

Bother. [A reluctant groan of protest. The same type of groan Waver makes when he has to get up in the mornings and go run (yes, he has to now. Gods fight and their shinki rely on them to be able to do just that. There's a reason he's gained some muscle.) and their shared futon is just too cozy. He still wants to cuddle.] We would have to do that. But this is so nice...

[He smiles as Iskandar's lips capture his. He holds their kiss, making it slow and sweet. He falls in love again and again a thousand fold. All the little things, even the frustrating things - like the sheer impossibility of Iskandar ever following a set of directions from a package - right alongside the big things.]

I'd teleport us, but we'd probably end up in the snow outside, rather than the shower right now. Or worse. [Teleporting right after or during sex? Dicey. There was that one incident that their shinki, well the shinki that aren't soulless, still rib them about.] Damn. Just a few more minutes? Then we do something about this?

[towards_okeanos]

[The thrill of r at the end of the word sends a shiver down his spine. Iskandar chuckles. No words can describe how alluring is his husband when he's sleepy like that. And that is a very familiar type of groan.

Dragging his love out of bed is not an easy feat. Especially in the morning. The litany of grumbling and complaining can continue all the way to the shower. It has become such a ritual that Iskandar would be rather shocked if it ever ceased. This sacrifice to his godly position has one side effect that Iskandar is so happy with he's willing to shut up in the morning and refrain from harassing Waver for all his grumbling. His husband was always beautiful but getting some exercise certainly helped raise that to the level of spectacular.]

I'd rather not. It was already freezing when we left the restaurant. I don't want to even try to guess what is the temperature outside now.

[Iskandar gasps with mock horror. Don't remind him of the pond accident. This was a very special disaster.]

Five minutes. Then we move.

[It's hard to say if Iskandar himself will be more reliable in keeping that condition than Waver. He's still way too comfortable where he is.]

[hypomeneo]

[The trials of a morning person dealing with a night owl and the divine levels of patience needed to put up with such a sleepyhead, indeed. Not that he's been such a night owl lately; all the extra work has been knocking him out early on the regular.]

Mmmmmph. [Waver pretends to give it some thought, shuddering playfully.] Too bloody cold. It's agreed. We're not chancing it.

[Even Heroic Spirits have limits! No need for an even more special disaster. Their shinki will find out and they won't hear the end of it.

Waver's fingers slide up Iskandar's chest.]

Mmmmmm... alright... just five minutes...

[Slow, lazy kisses and caresses follow as Waver stays close, comfortably nestled in Iskandar's strong arms. Waver's thoroughly come around to Iskandar's declaration of sex being one of life's greatest pleasures, and that includes the afterglow. This soft affection and connection as they bask and come down from the high is just as good as the throes of pleasure itself. Waver continues to listen to their hearts beat - a steady thump in unison - and is filled with sudden gratitude that his has been allowed to come back to life.]

Love you...

[towards_okeanos]

[They both have divine levels of patience when it comes to each other vices. Iskandar adores this sleepyhead of his too much to ever seriously protest. Even when said sleepyhead is making them late because he just can't wake up. Mornings are suffering for Waver and Iskandar doesn't want to add to that.

Just five minutes more is a spell he's intimately familiar with.

But then Waver very rarely berates him for that one bottle of wine too many. It did happen, and not on one occasion, that Iskandar came home absurdly drunk and Waver did not say a word. Just steered him to bed and let him sleep it off. He saved his opinion for the morning when they could have an actual conversation. They both tend to agree that Iskandar's impulse control is not exactly stellar. Especially when it comes to alcohol.

Now he lets himself sink into bliss. Sex is wonderful - Iskandar's lust for his husband's body is insatiable - but all those moments after are as precious. All the times he can just hold him, hear his heartbeat, his breath steady and calm. To know that nothing can take away his love from him this time. Not sickness, not death, nothing. Waver is his for all eternity.
He chuckles between the kisses and pulls Waver even closer.]

Love you more.

[hypomeneo]

[Waver's lips curl into even more of a smile and he leans up into another kiss. Five minutes pass - is it really just five minutes? - while the mess between them cools and steadily becomes more and more uncomfortable. That shower and the promised hair washing tempts.

Finally it inspires Waver to move and tug Iskandar with him.]

So much for five minutes. [He stretches like a cat, lazy and not moving fast, and then gets to his feet. There's a bit of a wobble - Waver's foot catching his discarded underwear and sliding out from under him, before he regains his footing. He muffles a small, satisfied yawn. Someone may have zoned out in bliss.] We better get to it.

[towards_okeanos]

[Iskandar doesn't mind little discomfort when weighing it against holding his husband close just a few moments longer. So it's his turn to groan with disappointment when Waver finally sits.]

I'd wager that it might have been the longest five minutes in recorded history.

[Does he make any sense? Probably not. He's too occupied watching Waver stretch and yawn. Just... enjoying the view.]

Mhhm...

[He has maybe a three seconds of realisation that they'd better clean at least some of this mess before someone trips over it before it's chased by another thought. Tomorrow. They don't have to do it now. What they should do, and more precisely what he should do, because Waver is already on his feet, is move.
Iskandar shakes his head and drags himself up to it on the couch. He shudders suddenly feeling so much colder without that other warm body to keep him comfortable.]

Yes, love. [He blinks several times just to keep himself awake; not even trying to hide his yawn.] I'm coming.

[A minute more and he would have fallen asleep. Something tells him that's what they will be doing for the rest of the night. No stargazing or anything. Sleeping.

That's that other thing they didn't get enough lately.]

[hypomeneo]

Mmmm... even longer than that five minute wait at the gate when we boarded the plane?

[Teasing.

Again, nothing but first class for Iskandar while flying. With his height, coach would have been a nightmare. But there had to be a snag somewhere and that snag was the plane being ready for boarding at the terminal. The only thing that had kept Waver from being frazzled was that they didn't have any connecting flights to worry about.]

Much more pleasant, though.

[Speaking of pleasant, watching Iskandar move is an enticing sight all of its own. If he were more energetic, he'd be tempted to do more than simply enjoy the view. He toes the clothing to one side. There. It's a mess in one place. Chances of them - okay, Waver, it always seems to be him - going flying as they go rummaging around the cabin half asleep for coffee - now dramatically lessened.]

I'll get the water running. [YAWN. More slow blinking.] Are all the hair products in the bathroom already?

[He's fuzzy on that point. It's very much looking like sleep is going to be winning over stargazing or anything else... even watching television in bed. There's a nag in the back of his mind to check in with their shinki before they do via the video chat feature of their phones, but it probably can be left to the morning as well. What he's feeling over his bonds is nothing out of the ordinary, and Iskandar would have said if it was otherwise on his ends.]

[towards_okeanos]

Ha! About that ... no. [Iskandar scratches the back of his neck. Look, maybe he got just a little too exasperated there. It is not that often that he has a chance to fly aboard an actual airplane.] Definitely not longer than that one.

[Fortunately, he's got better things to think about now. He gets up and stretches, yawning completely without restraint now.]

Yes, a lot more.

[A quick scan of the surroundings confirms what he already suspected. They must finish unpacking. This is utter chaos. He chuckles seeing Waver casually slide the discarded garment to the side with his foot. A lot better.]

Go ahead.

[Forgive him, he's staring. You're too adorable when you're sleepy, love]

No, I just took out the basics.

[Iskandar curses mentally. He found the shampoo earlier, and their toiletries, but there should be another bag with all the other hair products. The one he specifically packed into a different place in case not all of their luggage arrived with them as it should.]

I'll join you in a minute. I just need to get the rest.

[Where, in the darkest depths of Tartarus, had he stuck the other bag?]

[hypomeneo]

[There's soft chuckling. At least Iskandar had enjoyed the flight, long as it was. A good long read, a hand held game, fairly decent inflight movies - there was plenty to pass the time when Iskandar wasn't looking out the window. Gordius Wheel doesn't travel so high.]

The return flight will be better that way. Hopefully.

[They're both staring. There's another tiny yawn as Waver turns, giving Iskandar a good view of his backside, and saunters to the bathroom.]

I'll get the water a nice temperature, then, in the meantime.

[There's the slight creak of a tap and the steady patter of the shower starting up a few minutes later. The slight sound of protest in the bathroom says it all. Waver just got jolted awake by a blast of cold water. Iskandar doesn't need to see to know his husband's face has suddenly gone sour as he fiddles with the taps for something more pleasant. He knows how he is when he's forced to wake up too suddenly.]

[towards_okeanos]

[It is true he spent most of the time when it wasn't pitch black dark yet glued to the window. Books, movies, games, that was later. How could he not? The view from above was unbelievable. Never before he saw land, cities and rivers almost unrecognizable, from such height.

Iskandar's eyes follow Waver as he leaves for the bathroom. He moves only when he can no longer see his husband. He chuckles hearing the protests, half expected them given none of them is exactly fully awake. He heard those kinds of yelps before. Surprisingly, somehow he finds that other bag almost instantly. Exactly where he remembered packing it. It's a bit baffling he couldn't find it before dinner but then his mind was on other things then so maybe that's not so surprising after all.

Having acquired what he was looking for Iskandar follows Waver to the bathroom. He taps on the glass before joining him in the shower.]

I've read that long flights are terrible for the hair. [He wraps his arms around Waver's waist and leans down to kiss his neck. It has only been minutes but he already yearns to touch him.] So I brought something special.

[hypomeneo]

[Waver is covered in suds with his hair plastered down his back by the time Iskandar taps on the glass, a washcloth in his hands. Scrubbing himself down to remove the earlier evidence of their activities and probably giving a hell of an unintentional show while he's at it. The water is pleasantly temperate (not hot) and the Caster is luxuriating in it.

He smiles as Iskandar's arms wrap around him and his husband leans down to start kissing his next and hums as his own arms come up and he brings up the washcloth to begin sudsing up Iskandar's back. Really it's as much as an excuse to get his hands all over his king as much as to start cleaning him up.]

You read right. They're awful, especially in coach. [Which they thankfully avoided. Though Iskandar was curious to see what the other classes were like, and got a good look at cattle car class during the stretch where he got up to stretch out. There's a nostalgic chuckle.] Gray used to fret whenever we got off a red eye seeing me. She didn't fare too well either.

[Hoods and long hauls in economy do not mix. Period.]

Special? [Smiling up, curious.] What did you bring? Or is it a surprise?

[towards_okeanos]

[The water is indeed the ideal temperature. Clear evidence that contrary to that first shock Waver was able to tame the alien faucet arrangements. Iskandar chuckles feeling Waver's hand reaching to his back. It might not be the most efficient way of cleaning themselves but it definitely is pleasant. Now that they are not in a hurry they can opt for pleasant. Which is exactly what he intends to do.]

Oh, that I can understand completely. There's a lot to fret about.

[Iskandar might have never met Waver's young apprentice and almost-a-daughter but from all the tales his husband shared with him, he knows he'd have liked her very much.

One thing he and the girl shared was an appreciation for Waver's hair. He has a feeling she would have agreed with him being constantly on the lookout for new products to keep them in good shape. Which brought him back to the topic in question.]

Nah, no surprise at all. Just something I got recommended when I admitted to the cashier lady that we'll be going on an international flight.

[Because he is himself Iskandar can't resist talking with all sorts of people. Sometimes it doesn't but most of the time it works to his benefit.]

It's a hair mask, 90% aloe plus some exotic algae. [He had tried a similar product in the past to rather disappointing result.] Of course, there are many of those but I have been recommended a very specific brand. [The lady had marvellous hair so it was easier for Iskandar to believe her advice to be valuable.]

proving my membership in the order of senile turtles

[hypomeneo]

[Waver smiles as he works the cloth in slow circles from Iskandar's ribs, down his flank, and to his hip. The hotel soap has a certain scent to it that's hard to place... fresh. Almost powdery on the nose. Like fresh linen.

Different than the soaps they use at home. Iskandar was known to treasure incense, perfume, and spice in history, and a text could go on about his and his army's love affair with saffron. The trend continues into modern day. Iskandar always smells good, especially after a shower.]

At the salon supply store? [Cashier lady.... cashier lady... they've come across many cashier ladies. At the market (grocery shopping for their household is always an entertaining affair). At various other stores and restaurants. At the sex shop where Waver can't help but dissolve into an embarrassed mess every time they set foot in it. Wherever they go, Iskandar has no trouble striking up a rousing conversation.] Or was it when we were shopping for luggage? Or...?

Wait. I think I know the one. At the international currency exchange, right? [Long, glossy, silk for hair.] That's what you were talking about, huh? [Waver had been distracted by passport matters at the time.] I was wondering how she got it that way.

it's a noble and ancient order

[towards_okeanos]

Yes, exactly that one!

[Any moment he might think Waver is not paying attention, he'll be dead wrong. The lady wrote down the recommendation on the back of the exchange receipt, they chatted for a moment and she bid him a good flight. It wasn't that long but still Waver noticed. Iskandar forever marvels how observant his husband is. Nothing escapes him.]

You were busy with the passports and there was no line behind me so I didn't hurry and chatted with her for a while. You must agree she had splendid hair.

[Not unlike certain someone. Iskandar is sure she must have noticed that while he was chatting with her, he was also checking how Waver was doing. So she could have guessed the conditioner won't be for him. He was already content that he told her about their plans. He'd be even more content if the recommended product truly turned out as miraculous as described.]

Not as splendid as yours, of course.

[He wraps a strand around his fingers. There are so many things he loves in Waver but his hair are certainly very high on that list.]

Hm, I might be imagining things but they do seem a bit drier after the flight.

[He might. He is also plenty distracted by the most welcome of distractions. The washcloth is tickling his skin and next time he'd opt for a different choice of soap but it all matters little. As much as Iskandar loves to touch his lover, he equally enjoys being touched by him. There is grace in the subtle movements of his hands, long, elegant fingers, his wrists. It is mesmerizing.]

I wonder if they organise a dance night here.
