--Boss--

[takesitall]

[One day, when Ratio's been having a rough week, he gets a text message from Aventurine]

Are you alone?

Comments

[takesitall]

You're huge. Like...like my Cornerstone affected you.

[ignoranceisblight]

I think... I think it might have.

[As if it reacted to their wishes...]

[takesitall]

Since when did that thing grant wishes...? Take your mask off, I want to see.

[ignoranceisblight]

[Taking off the mask, then! His face looks a bit like marble, like his neck and torso, but with details like his usual makeup looking like the lapis lazuli and gold.]

... Well?

[takesitall]

...Camera. I need a camera. You're gorgeous, Veritas, like art come to life.

[ignoranceisblight]

[Give him a second, he's very carefully retrieving Kakavasha's phone--]

Here.

[takesitall]

[And Kakavasha takes so many photos so he can show Veritas.]

See?

[ignoranceisblight]

[Kakavasha really isn't wrong when he says Veritas looks like art come to life. It's a little strange to see.

Holy shit.]

That's...

[takesitall]

Stunning, isn't it?

[ignoranceisblight]

[He nods, silent and still a little awestruck, before he presses his lips to Kakavasha's.]

[takesitall]

[A kiss happily returned.]

You're bigger than me, now~

[ignoranceisblight]

Mm, so it seems.

[It's a bit of a bigger size difference than the usual one, even, he thinks... He runs one of his hands over Kakavasha's torso, quietly fascinated.]

[takesitall]

Even more than usual...I like it~

[He rests his hand on Veritas's arm with a smile.]

Makes me feel small~

[ignoranceisblight]

[He is still so weak for that smile.]

Oh? You enjoy feeling small?

[... He finds himself tracing the outline of the spade once again.]

[takesitall]

[He shudders.]

With you, absolutely. I feel safe.

[ignoranceisblight]

[... O-oh. He wasn't expecting that answer, and it flusters him a little.]

Vasha...

[Another kiss. He rests his hand on Kakavasha's hip and squeezes lightly.]

[takesitall]

[A kiss returned.]

I mean it. I'm always safe with you, Ver.

[ignoranceisblight]

... You are.

[He shifts so he can wrap his arms around Kakavasha, to pull him into a tight hug.]

[takesitall]

[He hugs back, just as tightly.]

I love you.

[ignoranceisblight]

I love you, too. So, so much.

[He's more than content to stay like this for a while, but eventually Veritas pulls back.]

Mm... help me get these pants off?

[takesitall]

With pleasure~ You might need to stand up, though.

[ignoranceisblight]

[He nods, carefully doing so-- once he has, he moves a bit closer.]

Here...

[takesitall]

[Kakavasha sits up and starts undoing Veritas's pants.]

We should get this outfit made for you normally. It's a good look, all this skin~

[ignoranceisblight]

[He laughs a bit.]

I'd only ever wear it around here.

[takesitall]

Is that suppose to deter me? Because that's just encouragement~
