Hi, this is Shiro.
Sorry I'm unavailable at the moment,
but leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

[ it's fortunate that shiro has the foresight to elaborate before keith can beat him to it because that was indeed the path they were trekking. keith's brow wrinkles briefly with confusion, then comprehension makes him go a little wide-eyed when he follows shiro's gesturing down to his crotch. before keith can say anything though, shiro disappears behind his side of the partitioned room, leaving keith with a squirmy feeling in his stomach.

what was it lon sheremi had said? it'll make you feel better? keith quickly shakes himself from his memory stupor, turning around to focus on his folded prison uniform. trying to stay focused on changing out of his ridiculous costume proves to be impossible when his brain is seemingly intent on playing back the taunt that prompted his initial outburst. presumably, that amount must be working for shiro if it's been a while since they

i'm sensing some repression here. keith bites his lower lip hard as he picks at the buttons of his lab coat. is he not fucking you enough, kid? that's -- a whole host of things. laughable, pathetic , depressing all blended into something a little too real. of course, the fact of the matter is that they're not having sex at all... which is fine assuming none is the exact amount at which they're both satisfied.

with only one or two kisses traded between them in the weeks since last month, keith has to assume that for shiro at least, none is perfectly adequate. perhaps in a context other than porn prison, keith might have felt much the same way. after all, he's always been content to leave his sexuality an unanswered and unexplored mystery. porn prison's taken that luxury away however, and he's learned quite a fair bit about himself that he can't unlearn. against better judgment, keith lets his thoughts wander back towards anon's cock forcing him open as he shrugs the costume off his shoulders. he knows there's no need to feel guilt or shame over his sex life, but lately the two go hand in hand whenever he thinks about how shiro treats him in comparison. but then again, shiro's obviously having sex with others in prison. toji, for starters.

so.

keith scrunches his face, breathing out a heavy sigh.
]

You'd prefer someone else for that anyway.

[ the question is ill advised and perhaps a touch bitter, but keith tries to pass it off as a joke with a forced laugh. the lab coat comes off, and he reaches for his folded tank and pulls it on over head.

from outside, there's a brief lull in background chatter as lon shouts across the studio:
]

Oh yeah, kid! Make sure you get a nice fat plug inside you. We don't have all day to let beefcake over there take his time with ya.
marmoron: marmoron (finding words)

shiro's denial is going to be what keeps them in porn prison for a year longer

[ keith splutters, face going cherry red in the immediate aftermath of lon's comment and his scandal is made only worse with the knowledge that in the next beat lon's gone right back to chit chatting with judy. he's the only one getting worked up here, and keith doesn't know how to articulate why. they were already leaving, so whatever the director wants is and has always been irrelevant. it's just .... what? that he's a prude?

fuck. he didn't think he was? or at least, he'd figured prudes wouldn't be going around presenting themselves to anons through glory holes, but the ease with which lon talks about his body is disconcerting. can keith even casually tell somene he's fucking to go slip in a plug? apparently not, considering his one repeat partner is someone he doesn't physically speak to.

there are a whole slew of implications to unpack in that. messed up ones, really. is he dealing with repression? stupidity? perhaps both? increasingly exasperated with himself, keith is about to yell back a choice retort when shiro beats him to the punch. except... shiro isn't addressing lon, he's speaking to keith. like the rest of them don't even matter.

instantly soothed, keith quietens, rolling his lower lip between his teeth as he listens. if anything, he's expecting a joke at lon sheremi's expense. instead, there's ... affirmation? mercifully, the curtains obscure shiro from seeing keith's doubletake but the longer his best friend continues to speak in somber tones, the more confused incredulity mellows into something harder to place. there's a healthy amount of embarrassment, sure, but it's twinged with regret as well.
]

Gimme a sec.

[ get out of here. right. that's the easy part to address in all this. keith tugs at his tiny white booty shorts and pulls on his long orange yoga pants over the knee highs. if he's walking out of here, he's at least doing so in a slightly more dignified manner. next, he scoops up his clothes and boots and draws back his curtain. ]

Okay. I'm ready to leave. [ ] and before nerves can get the better of him, keith is quick to add: ] And just so you know, there doesn't have to be a first time. Ever. If you don't think it feels right. But I... I still want to hang out.
marmoron: marmoron (radiance)

his baby progress is admirable i suppose

[ as always, keith is braced for the worst. it's a habit reinforced by years of negative expectation and then some by all the unfortunate turns their fight with the galra have taken. and maybe to an extent, if he's being honest with himself, the clone hadn't exactly helped either.

but above all else? he knows shiro. and though shiro hasn't said as much outright, there's a good chance that the reason underlying their mutual evasiveness is the omnipresent awareness of the rift between their space-time continuums. there's either a time paradox at play or they're from alternate realities and though keith doesn't have slav's manic fatalism, he knows neither option has particularly favorable conclusions about the meaning of their return home.

and if keith knows that, then shiro knows it too. so forgive him, if he looks a bit guarded while waiting to be gently let down for his own good. a held breath gets expelled with a soff:
]

Huh?

[ as shiro defies expectation. comprehension is a bit slow to catch up, and when it does his smile has the unfortunate timing of synching right up with the end of their minute. though his expression flatlines, his attention never leaves shiro. lon sheremi is a joke and as long as his best friend is going to ignore the guy, then keith is determined to treat him like the joke he deserves to be.

which is to say, naturally as soon as he catches shiro's drift, his eyes brighten with mischief.
]

Oh, you're on.

[ is it inadvisable to be running in stiletto boots? probably. but a mere suggestion of wildly irresponsible shiro raising his recalcitrant head is all the fuel keith needs to run a marathon. the two take off, triggering a loud HEY! that only makes keith wheeze with laughter as he runs after shiro towards the exit.

the race that should have ended once they're outside only continues because an out of breath lon sheremi huffs and puffs his way to the door, opens his fly and lets loose a flying orange thing that keith does not stop to get a better look at.

the race extends all the way to shiro's cube with shiro the victor and keith a close second just two strides behind. he leans heavily against the cube wall, laughing, panting and then coughing to get his words out.
]

Next time, you're the one running in heels.

[personal profile] marmoron 2022-07-09 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
[ keith rolls his eyes, grin still plastered on his face and ruining any semblance of real exasperation. he enters shiro's cube, completely cavalier in his demeanor inresponse to the challenge. ]

Heh. I could carry you no problem.

[ after all, if he could support his and shiro's combined weights while dangling off a platform, carrying his best friend on his back has to be easy in comparison. ]

I'm pretty strong, I'll have you know.

[ he closes the door behind him, then steps inside. there's still a smirk on his face right up until the moment that he registers the changes. blinking, his features shift into surprise as he looks from the large new bed to shiro, back to the bed. ]

Woah, that's .... huh. When did you get a new bed?

[ a dull thunk from outside makes keith turn to face the wall with a frown, though when there's no further noise, keith dismisses it entirely and instead walks over to join shiro by the counter to set his own clothes down. ]
marmoron: marmoron (chilled out with the fam)

yeah you nub

[personal profile] marmoron 2022-07-09 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[ like shiro, keith does a mental check off of his clothes to make sure nothing's been dropped along the mad dash back to the cube, but the similarities end there as keith is content to leave his jacket and boxers an unfolded mess on the counter and rather unceremoniously lets his boots drop on the floor.

he lingers by the counter for a long moment afterwrwards, merely watching shiro sit on the edge of his enormous bed and lean forward to undo his boot laces. only then does it occur to keith that he's going to have to take his pants off if he wants to do the same and remove the thigh highs, which wouldn't be a problem save for the fact that he hadn't bothered to switch out the jock strap in favor of his boxers back in the dressing room.

but perhaps that's not a problem he should even be bothered with? they are, after all, talking about the bed that shiro's acquired with his credits from bed activities.... presumably to facilitate even more bed activities in some unholy bed loop. unable to know what else to do , keith laughs a little softly and replies just as artificially nonchalantly.
]

I haven't seen a bed this big in ages. You can actually roll without falling off? That's some luxury right there.

[ all of which is true, of course. but again, keith knows shiro and is keenly aware that the guy wouldn't be spending credits on a larger bed for comfort or rolling privileges. no, if he's spent the credits, it means there may be someone he wants to share his bed withm and something about that sparks a tiny knot of tension in his stomach. keith drops eye contact, shyly stepping away from the counter to awkwardly stand at the halfway point between it and the bed. ]

It looks real comfy, Shiro.
marmoron: marmoron (tired smiles)

there there one day you shall redeem yourself

[personal profile] marmoron 2022-07-10 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
[ ....and then it clicks.

kind of. even after the invitation to come sit on the bed is extended, keith wrestles with the inherent egocentrism behind thinking something as bold as shiro got the bed to share with me because ... well, the inherent arrogance implicit in something like that is practically asking to be slapped down.

still, uncertainty softens into something moonier before keith ducks his head and quietly walks over the rest of the way.
]

You're asking me not to trust you. That's a first.

[ teasing, of course. keith grins as he flops down next to shiro. unlike the cot mattress which may as well just be filled with mothballs and paper, this one actually has some decent bounce to it. keith huffs a laugh. ]

Damn. This mattress has some bounce to it. So what prompted you getting this? Back muscles cramping on you, old timer?
marmoron: by request of the icon creator, pls do not take (encouraging)

a baby amount of hope

[personal profile] marmoron 2022-07-10 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[ one shoulder bump turns into a swooping lurch in keith's stomach. shiro has never said anything to suggest or even imply that the last time they shared a bed together had been unenjoyable, but considering the invitation had never been extended since, keith could at least make the inference that it must not "feel right" to do so again. he'd be lying if he said he hadn't been frustrated with that, and lying even harder if he suggested that he'd fucked some of that out.

but perhaps he's been thinking about everything in the wrong way. maybe shiro hadn't wanted to ask because a cot is a cramped thing to share. guilt flickers to life at the pit of keith's stomach, wondering what shiro would even think if he knew keith had gone to another guy for an outlet. does it even matter? they hadn't exactly set forth expectations for each other, let alone defined what it is that they're working towards outside of some nebulous agreement to just do what "feels right."

pushing the sobering thought out of his head, keith looks up with a smile.
]

Uh-huh. So now you're trying to get me to agree to stay over and milk a free bakrub out of me? Heh. Looks like the deal just keeps getting sweeter and sweeter for you.

[ he grins, reaching across to playfully poke shiro's ribs before flopping backwards with a happy sigh. ]

Do I get something nice if I agree?
marmoron: marmoron (warm smiles??)

[personal profile] marmoron 2022-07-10 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[ the question makes keith laugh despite not meaning to. it's just ... for such a playful tease of a question, there are so many answers keith could give, ranging from honest to too honest. he doesn't wriggle away from the pinch of fingers, but he does slap his own hand down over them to keep shiro from pinching any harder. ]

This is greedy, huh.

[ the smile holds, but keith isn't sure what to think. genuinely being greedy with shiro is the last thing he wants, but then how does he articulate havin wants and needs? do his needs even matter when there's an anon who doesn't think he's greedy for having wants? he looks thoughtful for a moment before giving shiro's trapped hand a squeeze and letting it go. ]

...Fine. I'll settle for you telling me if that was the dumbest porn you've ever seen, Miles Long.
marmoron: marmoron (extreme pastel smiles)

[personal profile] marmoron 2022-07-11 09:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[ the nerve!! the audacity?! keith chooses to show mercy to shiro's naughty hands and this is the repayment he gets? keith shorts, twisting away from the repeated pinchings. he snags the corner of a pillow case with his fingers, then snatches it up to smash against shiro's side. ]

I'm negotiating my terms of stay. I can make whatever demands I want.

[ he laughs, snapping the pillow back to his front, ready to use it as a shield. ]

If you want to give me something nicer, I'm all ears.
marmoron: marmoron (casual smiles)

[personal profile] marmoron 2022-07-12 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
I'm doing nothing of the sort!

[ but try as he might for indignation, keith is a little too busy laughing and yabking back to sound at all offended by the egregious accusation of hostage kaking. ]

Where do you think we are? Olkarion?

[ snorting, keith demonstrates his point by very abruptly letting go of the "hostage." time to see if shiro bonks himself in the face?? ]
marmoron: marmoron (wwwwwww)

[personal profile] marmoron 2022-07-12 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
[ okay, so maybe that was a little meanspirited, but the pillow is plusha dn soft, and shiro is obviously a big strong guy who'll recover in 0.02 seconds. keith grins wide as the pillow goes flying backwards to smash shiro in the face, then just about shrieks with laughter when shiro hurls it back in retaliation. keith brings his arms up to shield, laughing as the pillow bounces off. ]

No, I wanna stay. Please, I'll be good. .

[ insofar that his goodness won't be exploited in some vicious counter attack anyway. keith peejs up, still laughing as he scrambles to retrieve the pillow. ]
marmoron: marmoron (teeny smile)

[personal profile] marmoron 2022-07-12 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
[ ineffectually going for the pillow, mind you. with the boots still on, keith hasn't actually dared violate the sanctity of shiro's new bed by climbing up, dirty heels and all, just to snatch up the pillow.

which is to say, shiro easily grabs at the thing first, leaving keith wide open for attack. he smiles, mustering up as much innocence as he can.
]

Well yeah? I didn't want you throwing it at me. You expect me to just lie here defenselessly?

[ oh no, the poetry is contagious. ]
