Stories;

[insultea]

[When Ieyasu had pressed him about what sorts of things and relationships he'd experienced before meeting him, he hadn't meant for him to take 'Ask Kanetsugu!' literally.

Except Kanetsugu called him after work to tell him that Ieyasu had called to ask, and so, like a good friend, Kanetsugu had told him some juicy stories.

Mitsunari made a mental note to get back at him somehow.

But right.

....he's thinking it's approaching storytime now, as he opens the door to their apartment and sets his bag aside.]

[tokugawa]

[ . . . oh.

This'll be good.

A raise of his eyebrow.]

Hm?

[insultea]

[.....nngh.]

It's...quite the story.

Are you sure?

[..please don't judge him, hasubando.]

[tokugawa]

Positive.

[nuzzling]

[insultea]

[...welp.

He just takes a deep breath, letting it out slowly.

...Let it be known his life has been pretty exciting.]

It happened when I'd been dragged out to a party at a bar with some acquaintances. That was my first mistake, but...

[A sigh and he shrugs slightly.]

It didn't take them long to get distracted regardless. So I was alone when he showed up and started flirting with me.

[A chuckle.]

It wasn't necessarily a bad thing. He was attractive enough, I suppose--but he was drunk and certainly much older than I was at the time.

[...or even now. Much older in general. Hrm.]

He amused me enough that I agreed to give him my number. I figured he would either lose it or ignore it once he was sober.

[Mitsunari, that was still a Bad Life Choice.

He pauses, hesitating for a brief moment.

...Such a Bad Life Choice.]

[tokugawa]

[... snerk.

OKay, no, he'll be good. Resting his head on Mitsunari's shoulder, though he's smiling slightly at this story.

Waifu, your choices...]

[insultea]

[...sob he knows they were bad.

But Ieyasu asked for strangest, so it gets worse.]

And I didn't hear from him for a time so I figured he was right. I almost forgot about the entire thing when he finally did call. He asked me to meet him somewhere, but...well, he made it sound really urgent.

[...heh.]

I was pretty naive and figured he was in trouble in some way, so I did meet him. Instead of it being anything urgent, he took me out to dinner--

But it was strange enough that I left pretty soon after that.

[A sigh.]

He called often enough to invite me out places. I started making excuses and then just not answering at all. It took a little while for the persistence to wear off, but he did eventually stop calling.

And then I went to the first of one of my classes my senior year in college--

[...Fffff.

He runs a hand down his face.]

And he was the professor there.

[Strange enough for you, Ieyasu--]

...I walked out of the room. Admittedly, I don't know if that could be considered a relationship, but...it was rather strange to experience.

[tokugawa]

[..... pffffffffffffffffffhahahahaha

okay he can't

just

give him a moment

oh god he's laughing so hard and just holding onto Mitsunari

and

okay he'll make up for the laughing and press a kiss to Mitsunari's lips]

You're amazing.

[insultea]

[.....SOB.

DON'T

LAUGH AT HIM.

HE JUST.

buries his face in Ieyasu's chest and mutters.

Mumble mumble mutter.]

[tokugawa]

[LAUGHING AND CUDDLING AND

it dies down after a while and he settles for just

pressing soothing kisses atop Mitsunari's head and leaning down to press a kiss to his neck because burying your face makes it hard for him to kiss anywhere else, boyfriend

so he'll just. chuckle a bit more and laugh]

You're absolutely brilliant.

{and he means that genuinely]

[insultea]

[.....FFFFFF.

His good humor returns a little; he just turns his head so his cheek is resting on Ieyasu's chest instead of his face, looking up at him.

And a wry chuckle.]

I was not very intelligent and a little naive.

Regardless, I was able to switch into a different class.

[S i g h.]

[tokugawa]

[Ieyasu is happy to manage a smile in return and just cradle Mitsunari in his arms.]

Well, that's fortunate. I can't imagine staying in that class after that happened.

[insultea]

[He slides his arms around Ieyasu's waist in response to the cuddling and musingly--]

He did call one last time after that...

[..shrug.]

Alright then. Your strangest relationship?

[tokugawa]

Well, I actually don't think I have-

[... and then it hits him

a groan]

[insultea]

[..........

A smile slowly stretches across his face at that.]

Oh yes?

[tokugawa]

[.... grumbling]

... don't tell Kumiko.

[insultea]

[..pfflkansd.]

I won't say a word.

[tokugawa]

She tried to set me up with her friend once.

[... and a pause. because that's already headache-inducing]

Oh, she was a lovely girl-

... if... stalkerish really... constitutes lovely in any way at all.

[ahaha sob]

I thought she was nice! I would have been happy to start up a relationship with her- if she... didn't invite herself to my apartment almost immediately.

[he's already thinking 'ieyasu why did you do this']

I let her sleep in the spare room that night and-

... she had already been making pancakes in the morning. Kind, I thought-

Then when I saw her out and went out myself... I found out that I had locked myself out once I got back. I was able to call my friend to give me the spare key that I entrusted him with and... turns out she took mine while I was sleeping and made a spare copy since she was already inside waiting.

[ . . . s-sigh.]

I let Kumiko handle it, moved to a new city, and I've never left my keys unattended at night again.

Not a relationship.

But that's about as bad as it has ever gotten.

[insultea]

[..........F-FFFFFFF--

Aslmdaksdmas

He just...has no idea how to feel at that. His automatic reaction, it seemed, had been to tighten his arms around Ieyasu's waist possessively and protectively.

....but he chuckles quietly.]

...That's impressive, love of my life.

[A quiet nuzzle.]

Though I can understand how someone could be desperate for your attention...

[tokugawa]

I don't know why and I never asked why and I'm never going to-

[A shiver and he is just going to cuddle Mitsunari for a moment.

Okay anyway.

He clears his throat.

He thinks he deserves to be rewarded for reliving that trauma-]

Alright. My turn. Most scandalous endeavor?

[this is what he's been after all day, sweetie]

[insultea]

[..................................

The smile remains on his face for a moment, frozen--

...

...]

Pardon?

[tokugawa]

[A kiss to his cheek.]

Already hard of hearing when we're so close?

[insultea]

[......................

He. Blinks.

And again.

And groans and buries his face in Ieyasu's chest again.]

...Out of all of the things to ask...

[Give him a moment, he'll get there.]

[tokugawa]

You've clearly lived a very exciting life.

[and he presses a kiss to the top of Mitsunari's head

he's just curious]

[insultea]

[...most scandalous....

Okay.

He pulls back so he can look Ieyasu in the eyes and arches an eyebrow.]

What does scandalous consist of, then?

[tokugawa]

[ . . . ffffffffffffffffff.]

To be honest, I'd be interested in hearing anything but-

[A kiss to Mitsunari's lips.

He kind of wants to make his waifu blush tonight.]

How about on the more... sensual side of things?

[And a finger running down Mitsunari's spine so it can't be misinterpreted.

Oops, he's being mean but it's fun.]
