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.]

Comments

[tokugawa]

[.... fffff.]

I'm... still sorry but not. It ended up being a great decision on my part, but I still feel rather bad for interrupting anyway.

[insultea]

Oh, I wouldn't be sorry at all!

It was a rather dull affair before you three showed up as it was.

[A contented hum, and he leans against Ieyasu's chest.]

...Besides, it led to the best thing in my life...

[tokugawa]

[ . . . excuse him as he chuckles.]

You really are drawn to trouble, aren't you?

[insultea]

[He just smiles shamelessly.]

If there is no trouble around, I do tend to make some myself.

So yes, I suppose I am.

[tokugawa]

[... ffff. A bit of a laugh and he nuzzles Mitsunari's cheek gently.]

It keeps things exciting, I suppose.

[insultea]

[He's pretty content, just lightly draping his arms around Ieyasu's neck in return.]

Mm...I like it when things are exciting...

I dislike being bored.

[tokugawa]

[A slight tilt of his head.]

Have I ever bored you?

[insultea]

[And there isn't a shred of hesitation in response to that; he just contentedly nuzzles into Ieyasu's neck.]

Never.

You've been making my life exciting from the night we met.

[tokugawa]

[... ffffff. He turns his head for a kiss then.]

Good.

Because you're the light of my life now.

[insultea]

[Yes, kisses are good. He's okay with this.

Chuuuu~]

Mmm...

Besides, how could you ever think you're boring, Ieyasu?

[tokugawa]

.... I'm not exactly jumping on you every night-

[Though he could but that goes unsaid.

And so he chuckles softly.]

Nor am I exactly as dynamic or eccentric as the people you have described tonight...

[insultea]

[...snort.]

Predictability is boring as well. I'm not interested in that.

You are more than interesting enough for me, Ieyasu. [Another quiet hum and he goes back to nuzzling Ieyasu's neck quietly.] With your connections and bonds, your boxing and your bros...

And your care and your kindness and yes, your flattery and teasing as well.

[A chuckle.]

I could go on.

[tokugawa]

[.... oh. A-awwwwwww.]

... you're still cute.

[chuuuuuu~

he can totally return the favor with the flattery but he can hold off for now]

[insultea]

[And a snappy response--]

Wrong answer.

[:V not cute.]

[tokugawa]

[... fffff.

A laugh and he presses a kiss to Mitsunari's cheek before resting their foreheads together.]

... alright. You asked for it.

Perhaps not cute- but instead remarkably adorable. [a grin] But why stop there?

Mitsunari... you somehow manage to be charming and honest and witty and loyal all in the same breath. It's no wonder that you've managed to capture my heart completely that way.

I admire your workaholic tendencies because I can't deny that you have them- but your dedication is amazing. I love how much you're willing to do for other people... and it's in that way that you truly are spectacular.

[a soft kiss]

There's nothing about you that I'm not completely enamored with.

[insultea]

[...a-ah...

That wasn't the answer he was looking for either but now he's blushing faintly--

But he leans into the kiss.]

Mmn...

You are far too good to me, Ieyasu. You always have been.

[tokugawa]

[... ffff. He shakes his head.]

Were you not listening...?

You're the light of my life and the brightness to my days.

[chuuu~]

I think I'm allowed to be more than a little bit in love with you.

[insultea]

...I'm always listening.

[A quiet sigh, and he slides his fingers into Ieyasu's hair, pulling gently to hug his fiance close.

...]

You can be in love with me and still be too good to me.

The amount that you do for me is simply...staggering. I do not know if I express my gratitude often enough for it.

[tokugawa]

[... hm. Ieyasu settles for merely tightening his hold around Mitsunari and resting his chin on his shoulder.]

I... merely want to express my love for you.

I don't seek any of your gratitude, Mitsunari... [and he turns his head to press a kiss to Mitsunari's cheek] Just let me love you as much as I want to and understand it's because of how much I love you... and I'll be pleased.

[insultea]

[...mm.

And he lets out a quiet sigh.]

...Ah...very well.

But I will still always be grateful to you for it. For everything you do, I mean.

[tokugawa]

[A soft laugh and he claims a kiss from Mitsunari's lips.]

I enjoy every second with you-

So I'm grateful to you as well.

[insultea]

[He leans into the kiss, contentedly sliding his hands to rest around Ieyasu's neck again.

...ha.]

If that is so...then we continue to be even.

Ah--!

[He leans forward to press a gently kiss to Ieyasu's lips for a long moment--

And then he leans back again.]

Now we can be even.

[tokugawa]

[... ah. Ieyasu smiles at that before burying his face in the crook of Mitsunari's neck and placing soft kisses there.]

I do enjoy even.

[insultea]

[He shivers a little at those kisses, quite happy to allow his body to react to them.]

Mm...me too.

It always promises to keep things...

Interesting.

[c:]

[tokugawa]

I can agree with that.

[and he might not even really know what Mitsunari's implying

too busy nuzzling his face into the crook of Mitsunari's neck

and a sigh]

You're warm.
