Snuggles

snuggle with someonespecial
What better time than these cool, crisp mornings or rapidly lengthening nights to jump right under a warm blanket with that irreplaceable person in your life? Even if you're not sleeping together - heck, even if you've not been straight with your feelings and you're not officially an "item" - there's nothing wrong with cuddling up. Grab a book, get some hot cocoa, turn on the TV (if you're in an era where the tube's available), or just enjoy each other's presence on the couch or in the bed.
- Comment with your character, preference, etc.
- This is a gen or shipping meme, not a smut meme, but if you want interactions to turn to something more, I can't stop you.
- Reply to others.
- Thread.

her body continued to tremble even as his thrusts gradually slowed, winding down off that high in slow motion. every inch of her felt raw on the heels of her orgasm, even the slightest touch was enough to overload her senses. truthfully it was all she could do to just breathe in and out, panting for air. her limbs had wound so tight around him that they'd gotten locked up- a blessing in disguise since neither one of them could really relax at the moment.
slowly she lifted her head, heavy as it felt her neck would've snapped if she'd let it hang back unsupported like that for much longer. she bowed inward, thumping her forehead against his shoulder and leaning there against him for support. Ryuuko swallowed, mouth dry, she couldn't form words just yet. her brain felt like a fried motherboard with little sparks still zapping through her nervous system.
talk about a grand finale.]

They came to an understanding that left him warm, happy, and full of love. He couldn't get enough of that feeling, slipping his head a bit lower to rest his cheek on the top of Ryuuko's head, satisfied by the soft feeling of her breath against his shoulder.
Nero, slowly felt his heart catching up to the rest of him. His muscles were locked in place but he knew better than to skirt with disaster by trying to stay standing when he felt like he'd just gotten into an actual fist-fight with Ryuuko. The two of them were flushed, sweating and out of breath, barely able to compose themselves. He'd only slept with someone once before and it had been like a quiet stroll in comparison to the harrowing death race they put themselves through. Nero slowly lowered himself onto the unbroken part of the sofa, sitting down with Ryuuko still held against him--though he made an effort to slip out of her and pull off the condom, shakily tying it off and tossing it across the apartment, into the trash.
In that moment of pure, unfettered clarity, he only had one word in mind:]
Jackpot.
no subject
[she finally managed to find her voice right around the same time as Nero had- they were the first words that came to mind and evidently they were in full agreement about that. Ryuuko heaved a breathy, broken up laugh, still desperately fighting to refill her lungs and really just in complete awe of how intense the last few minutes had been. they were both a disheveled mess, after what felt like the most vigorous workout of her entire life. Ryuuko knew it wouldn't be long before bruises in the shape of Nero's fingerprints camouflaged her ass and thighs. a realization that, strangely enough, made her more happy than angry. there was something about knowing they'd each both left their mark on the other that delighted her to no end.
finally, after what felt like a long moment spent in physical shock, Nero had moved to sit and Ryuuko was grateful because that meant she could attempt to relax her limbs that suddenly felt ten times heavier than normal after overworking her muscles to such an extent. she remained huddled against him, nuzzling her face into the crook of his neck as her fingertips dragged a lazy winding path down his outer arms before hanging limp at her sides. Ryuuko breathed him in deep, faint traces of whatever brand of soap he used mingling together with the shared scent of sweat and sex, their own personalized concoction.
Ryuuko scoffed against his throat, shaking her head.]
Is that really all you can say??
[her words feigned irritation when in truth she was too high on an overabundance of serotonin to be bothered by much of anything.]
no subject
His chest rose and fell, feeling Ryuuko shift lightly with him, draping over him less so than digging into him. Once they were on the sofa, they could let gravity handle the inconvenient part of making each other exhausted but it still left Nero light-headed and dizzy from a mixture of elation and the peace that came from months of tension built up and exploding in just under ten minutes. Nero caught his breath slowly, his arms coming up and wrapping around Ryuuko's waist properly, pulling her up against him with no regard at all for just how conked out she was.]
I got more to say but I ain't fuckin' wrong.
[Exhaling a good-humored laugh, Nero rested his hands on Ryuuko's back, turning up his chin to stare at the TV, which turned to static after the terrible movie's credits had long-since ended. For all the bluster he liked showing and the tough-guy act he put on every day of the week, Nero was soft in one way. He hated feeling like he'd been letting someone down. So, in an effort to cut that possibility out as quickly as he possibly could, his voice falling deeper so she knew he meant it.]
I love you and I'm gonna make sure you know it all the goddamn time. Alright?
no subject
Ryuuko closed her eyes, completely at ease... which made the bombshell he dropped on her a hundred times more startling. blue eyes flew open in a panic as she stiffened in his lap. in full on shock, she couldn't breathe- never mind speak. her thoughts raced in a million different directions. did she hear him right? there's no way Nero just uttered the one phrase she was incapable of handling. "I love you" wasn't something that was said to her. ever. she never heard it, not once. not from her workaholic father and certainly not from her psychopath mother- if the woman could even be considered for the title.
three little words she'd always longed to experience but never allowed herself to dream would come true for someone like her. even now that it had she still couldn't bring herself to trust it. she had so much baggage in that department, far too much to unload without getting crushed in the process.
Ryuuko physically recoiled, pressing her palms flat to his chest and straightening her arms to maintain that distance between them. her head hung forward still, afraid to meet his eyes and risk him seeing the earth shattering vulnerability reflected in hers.]
I-Idiot! What the hell are you saying!? You can't just toss that word around like it's nothing!!
[her tiny frame began to tremble, fingers flexed against him.]
Don't make false promises you don't intend to keep, just because we had sex!
about to pop a serious hug
But, it couldn't possibly be enough to just say it. She experienced it over the course of time with him--the fact that he was constantly with her.]
I didn't. All of it's real. [He wasn't angry with her in the slightest but he still felt his chest boiling up. Before her, he lost everyone. He knew life was too short to spend it being dishonest with himself or hesitating. So, when an opportunity presented itself, he lunged at it, desperate. Nero's hands came up, his fingers Ryuuko's arms, his teeth gritting.]
I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it. You know that.
about to have a literal stroke
even knowing that, even seeing her at her worst, Nero never left her side. in a way she felt bonded by the fact they were both monsters on the inside, yet neither allowed that fact to define them. so why then was is so hard for her to wrap her brain around the idea that Nero loved her? that two people so similar could share a deeper connection that stretched beyond a simple kinship with one another.
Nero grabbed her by the arms and she flinched, lifting her head to stare up at him in absolute terror. her mouth had never felt so dry as she struggled to form the words to reply.]
I-I.....
[Ryuuko gulped, desperately wanting to look anywhere else but finding she couldn't break eye contact.]
I don't understand... Why???
no subject
You make me pissed off all the time. [Stern, as if it were a lecture. His gaze boiled into hers, almost threatening. Nero wanted Ryuuko to know how he felt and she had to believe it. Nothing was more important than that. He had to be honest, not sweet. Serious. Not pleading.]
You test me all the goddamn time. I thought, a couple years back when we met... That you were just acting tough to piss me off and you just needed a place to put your head down for a bit but I--I saw what you were really like, Ryuuko. I know why you fought like hell. I love you and it.
[He relaxed his grip on her, feeling her tension shift. It wasn't gone but she stopped pushing him back and he couldn't break from looking at her. He had learned to accept he was just as much a demon as he was human before he met her though it still made him feel self-conscious when he let his guard down. She hadn't seen him turn into a demon until the last month or so and she didn't look anything more than curious. Maybe excited. Her connection to her mother had been telling but from the start he decided it meant nothing to him. It was just an interesting tidbit about her.
What mattered was how awesome her triangle choke was and how she'd always check if he was okay after a match, too shy to ask out loud. How she'd be loud and rude one moment then wait to see if he was angry to slip in a 'sorry' as subtly as possible. What mattered was that she made it clear that she didn't want to go, either. He hadn't known what it all was until they were forced to confront it.
She looked afraid but he already knew what it really was. It was the same fear he felt when he thought she'd decided she didn't need a free guest bed to crash on anymore.]
I would've just been fine being around to make sure you were never alone but... you kept spending time with me and I realized I'd be unhappy if you decided to move on past me.
no subject
What... What kind of reasoning is that? I piss you off??? And you love me for it??? D'you realize how batshit crazy you sound?
[she felt like her body was a machine on the verge of overheating, steam might as well have pumped from her ears with how worked up she was. Ryuuko couldn't explain why she felt so elated to hear him say he'd be unhappy without her around. though if she had to guess, it's probably because she'd feel the exact same emptiness if Nero ever decided to pick up and leave for good. she couldn't imagine a life for herself without him in it- wasn't that telling enough?]
H-How do you know???
no subject
[It was hard to articulate even after he figured out what it really was.
It was easy for him to be wildly frustrated and confrontational but knew he couldn't let it be the only way for him to tell her. Ryuuko had it just as hard as he did and she somehow scrambled together a life. He tightened his fingers a little and then loosened them from Ryuuko's arms to rest on her thighs. Her expression was familiar but still new in the corners. Something in what he said had snagged her and he wasn't sure if she'd have the same idea in mind as he did.
It had been in the back of his mind.]
If you don't wanna say it back, okay. I already get how you feel.
no subject
and yet, here she was now wanting nothing more than to hear Nero tell her he loved her again and again.
he knew what she was and he accepted her for it. he never once hesitated to extend his hand to her, never turned her away. how could she not see it all this time, hadn't he made how he felt perfectly clear? so then ... why was she still holding back like some coward??]
How can you possibly say you know how I feel when I can't even manage to wrap my head around it myself???
no subject
Softly, he reached up to press his hand on the center of Ryuuko's chest, his expression becoming a little softer.]
I know you can hear it, too. If you didn't feel that way about me, it'd be... calmer.
[He could say one thing about her. Ryuuko wasn't all expletives and explosive anger--else he really wouldn't have wanted to back her up as much as he did.]
Plus, you'd have laughed if I was dead wrong. And... well, you got like this when you kissed me earlier.
[He felt like it, at least. Nero's heart was beating fast too, almost out of disbelief. Even if she hadn't said it, Nero was fine knowing she wanted him. Out of all the storms raging in his heart, that one became a sunny shore to rest on.]
no subject
slowly she slid one hand overtop of his, keeping it there against her. her other hand remained pressed to his chest, but while she'd initially placed it there to create distance... she realized now it only made her feel that much closer. her touch lingered over his heart, mirroring his gesture, where she could feel his pulse was racing just as fast, if not faster.]
I-I... m'not sure I even know what love is supposed to feel like... b-but... I know that, I want to be with you.
no subject
What mattered was that she knew how it felt. Once it left his lips, he didn't have the weight of it on his heart. Besides, he couldn't even put words or an explanation to the elation he felt when Ryuuko looked right back at him and watched him, her beautiful blue eyes in a state of suspended disbelief and the feeling she couldn't quite place, yet.]
I don't know the full some of it. [Nero bent forward, slipping both hands to Ryuuko's waist to pull her in close to him, resting his face in the nape of her neck.]
I just know what I know. If you wanna figure it out, I'll be right there with you. Like always.
no subject
it seemed like new territory for both of them, nevertheless Nero seemed keen to simply roll with the punches and work through it, together. that meant more to her than he would ever know.
the desire to be close in that moment was mutual, and Ryuuko's breath hitched as his hands gently gripped her waist. despite how intensely they'd been going at it moments ago, the feeling of his hands on her bare skin was still new. everything about the way he touched her now gave her butterflies, how he pulled her in and buried his face in her neck, like he just couldn't get enough. Her arms slid around his middle to return his embrace, pressing a kiss to his shoulder as she leaned her cheek against it. her fingers traced up the length of his spine, settling the heels of her palms against his shoulder blades as she gripped him a little tighter.]
M'not goin anywhere.... Hell itself couldn't chase me away.
no subject
Even if she just poked her head in once in a while, he knew it would still be enough.
He stood up suddenly when Ryuuko kissed his shoulder and rested against him, making a sudden gait towards his bedroom, taking a deep and uneven breath at what she'd said. It was embarrassing to say but Nero would plainly admit that line of hers completely stole his attention all over again. His heart was racing and, as he got to the door, he conjured the spectral hand again--grabbing the box of condoms from the side table rather than taking one.]
Of course you gotta say shit like that...
no subject
O-Oi, your couch...!?
[heat crept into her cheeks and down her neck as she drew the most obvious conclusion- but also, how had she not realized it sooner?? her head was already spinning when the blue glow of his spectral wing flickered to life, seizing her attention as he made a grab for not one- not two-- but the entire box of condoms. if her face wasn't already completely red before, it sure was now.]
Nero!?
no subject
[He didn't even really know what he was saying. Nero's mind, as it had been, was far, far away from couch-related matters. His other spectral hand shot over to the window to draw the shades in, flooding the room with darkness, save for the light in the hall. He didn't have it in him to think too far in the future. What did he need? Ryuuko. Condoms. Bed.
He didn't respond quiet the way she expected but it was a natural reaction for him. Nero wasn't exactly one to half-ass his feelings, so subtlty was simply out the window.
He put one knee on the edge of the bed, come down with Ryuuko gently and kissing her before just about pressing her into it with his upper half, kissing her and working on pursuing the blaring trumpet in the back of his head demanding he give her what she wanted. His hands searched her thighs and backside, clearly not finding what he wanted but still willing to look through rough touches, squeezing Ryuuko's curves with an urgent grip.]
no subject
the kisses he gave burned through her, his raw need for her surged to the forefront. everything from the way he pinned her body beneath his, to how forcefully he staked his claim on her lower half spoke volumes. Nero was a man on a mission, hellbent on sating a monstrous appetite. she ached for his touch anywhere and everywhere, heaving a petulant whine between kisses whenever his attention strayed too quickly. chasing after tiny gasps of equal parts shock and pleasure that managed to escape here and there against his lips when he'd squeeze her a little too sharply. they were sparks on the short path to re-igniting that fire they'd only just doused minutes earlier... or maybe it had never truly gone out.]
Hnn-- looking for something...?
[she teased from under him, breathless and writhing. even in the dark it was easy to see her pupils had dilated, fully enamored by that small taste of how relentless he could be once he seized control.]
no subject
At her teasing, he huffed and pressed his mouth to her neck again, knowing he wouldn't be ablem to keep either of them completely satisfied with kissing alone. Nero quietly lowered himself, kissing down between her breasts as both his hands placed themselves firmly against her knees and shoved them apart with more gentleness than one would expect for someone who looked as heated and and desperate than he had. He kissed his way down her until he was between her legs, running his tongue along her mound urgentl and borderline angrily.
For once, he was going to let actions speak uninterrupted.]
no subject
she was reluctant to let his mouth slip out of reach from her own, but quickly changed her tune when it became vividly apparent precisely where he was headed. ocean blue eyes stretched a bit wider and her skin flushed a light pink as his lips trailed down her sternum. butterflies swirled anxiously in the pit of her belly as his hands forced her legs apart, gentle but no less demanding. a quiet whimper sounded against pursed lips as she watched him lower himself all the way down, unable to look away. her hands gripped the bedding beneath her, tight as can be, as a stuttered gasp tore through her throat the moment his wet tongue delved between her legs with heightened purpose.]
F-Fuck! Nero. [his name, in the form of a breathless plea, was just about all she could stammer out as a white hot bolt of pleasure shuddered through her. she hadn't realized how badly she'd been craving his mouth on her until he proved dead set on supplying it.]
sadly looks at typos
Nero held her up by his hands, his fingers gripping the backs of her thighs just hard enough to let her know he liked her exactly like that. Something told him he wouldn't be getting much of an argument on positions anytime soon, though. With Ryuuko bunching up the sheets beneath her, Nero could feel her urgency build up the more he ran his tongue over her until he simply gave her the most confident tease he could muster, the tip of his tongue slipping into her entrance and running up, hinting at something he'd been eager to do.
That was something he wanted her to ask for, somehow.]
grips ur shoulder
her breath quickened, fingers twitching as he drew her lower half up off the mattress and proceeded to dive right in. she barely managed to contain a girlish squeak in response to his initial teasing, trembling as his hot breath fogged down over her mound. she wriggled her hips a little, impatient up until the moment his tongue dipped lower to probe her entrance and then drag that hot line up--] D-Don't stop! J-Just a little higher, Nero, please. [her voice was a feral growl by that point, just barely choking the words out- Ryuuko wasn't above begging if it meant getting his attention where she ached for it most.]
no subject
He relaxed his jaw just a little, running his tongue hot against Ryuuko, rubbing the full length of his tongue over her labia and clit, repeating the motion slowly and then moving up and down the same way to see which she wanted more out of him. It was genuine testing on his part, knowing at the very least that he had to experiment a little to see just what riled her up and he'd already gotten the impression that she'd let him know, vocally, whether or not he was the right way to build her up and stimulate her.
Those muscles in his neck weren't quite for show.]
no subject
it made sense, Nero always had been a fast learner... it used to piss her off, how easily new things seemed to just come naturally to him. but at this point and time Ryuuko felt only gratitude. he was already so carefully attuned with her body language that she really didn't feel he needed much more than a healthy dose of validation, which she was more than eager to provide.
her body seized up the instant his tongue found her clit, throwing her head back against the mattress as her mouth fell open with a throaty moan.] R-Right there..! [if she had a bit more self awareness she might've been embarrassed by the needy way her voice strained and cracked in the pursuit of more pleasure. but as it was, she hadn't the sense of mind to care. the only thoughts in her brain revolved around getting Nero to focus his attention there, where the resulting stimulation proved the strongest.
she easily became equal parts inflamed and infuriated whenever his tongue strayed elsewhere, forcing her to clench her thighs in around his head and shift her hips around in a greedy effort to bring him right back up. amidst her frustration she reached a hand down between her legs to latch onto the back of his head, pressing his face in closer and rocking up to meet it. she needed more, and it was becoming quickly apparent that there would be no holding her back if Nero wasn't going to put in the additional effort to keep that dominant side of her contained.]
