We all masturbate, it's nothing to be ashamed of. It's also something most prefer to keep private. But sometimes, people forget to knock while we're in the middle of things, and awkwardness ensues.

REACTIONS:
➊ EMBARRASSMENT Yeah, someone just caught you in a very private act and you kind of wish the ground would swallow you up. Now.
➋ ANGER How dare someone barge in on you without knocking! You'll give them a piece of your mind right now.
➌ EXCITEMENT/EXHIBITIONISM happens to be a major turn-on for you, so you'll just continue. Maybe even ask them to give you a hand, you never know...
➍ APATHY Big deal, it's not like they've been living in a bubble where they never knew masturbation existed, and if they were they had to find out about it sometime.
➎ SQUICK Either it was a family member who just walked in on you or you just feel so utterly dirty at having been caught doing something so personal.
➏ DELAYED reaction You didn't even notice they were there until after you finished.
➐ DERAILED REACTION Oh no you've been--what is that on their head? Wait, the world's ending now? D-did you just see that unicorn? Worry about being caught later, figure out what the hell is going on first.
➑ FRUSTRATION COME ON, EVERY TIME!
➒ RELIEF Thank GOODNESS someone came by! Otherwise you'd have had to stop and go grab that toy/pillow/remote for the annoying stereo yourself. Also they could maybe swap discs because this movie isn't really doing it for you. What do you mean it's inappropriate? It's not like you're asking them to watch.
[A corner of Dick's mouth quirked up. This tease, he couldn't resist.]
And then I shouldn't stop on your account so you can... watch?
[He knew he wasn't fair in the situation. But he also wasn't folding away from Wally, wasn't shutting him off, so that was... something? He also hadn't pulled away, either, bare, touching, and touched as he was.]
[ But the fact that Dick wasn't drawing away from him didn't escape Wally - he took security in that fact. A slightly more devilish grin took over and he didn't hide it from the former slave, instead offering it up to him as enticement. ]
Yes, so I can watch. And one day have you calling out my name, little bird, because I'll be the only thing you'll feel or know. [ That hand of his traveled up Dick's side again and didn't pause there; it continued to stroke up and down, seeing if he could maybe get some reaction, just to see and nothing else. ] I want you writhing on my bed, losing yourself. [ But then the devilish edge slipped from him, returning back to gentleness; his hand did not stop. ]
Only when you're ready, though.
CW slavery implications of the non-consensual variety
[Dick was... Now Dick was caught up in the intensity in the green eyes, the desire (he's sees similar over the last two years) (but it wasn't the same) making him tremble against that hand. His own eyes were... full, dark. Fear, resignation, desire right back warred there. He knew - he knew he owed everything he was allowed to this man. He loved this man. He knew he wouldn't be pushed, either - but it was still too soon.]
[By the time Wally's voice eased, the blue eyes were overflowing with tears, falling silently. And Dick sagged forward, head falling against his king's chest and words bubbling between lips that were so pale they might almost seem blue.]
I will, I know I will, but not yet, I'm sorry, I can't yet, it's... eyes on me, hands on me, filled with lust, you're not them, but they're there when I close my eyes and I-- I'll get better. I promise. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Re: CW slavery implications of the non-consensual variety
[ Oh no, this was not what Wally had wanted at all. He immediately brought a hand up to Dick's face, just holding him gently and stroking at his cheek, trying to brush away those tears. He really should have known better, but he thought- maybe he could push it just a little bit. ]
Shh... You have nothing to be sorry for. Never. [ With his other hand, he lightly tugged Dick into his lap and made sure to keep his touches chaste, but secure. ]
You're free here, Dick. What you do with your body is your own choice and no one else's.
[Slightly taller though Dick might have been, he curled into his king's touch like the tiny kid he had once been, still a bit skinny and very much in need of the comfort.]
[It took him a couple of minutes to stop shaking or crying, and a couple more before he thought of something to say. Slowly, his fingers let go of Wally's shirt, and rose up to brush the side of the ginger's neck.]
All thanks to you.
But while my body is free... [The smile was very small and tentative. Shy, even.] I don't think my heart is.
[ Throughout those minutes, Wally didn't let up for a second on holding the brunet. He gave him all the silence and time he needed; for a moment, he was worried when Dick drew back and straightened out, but it did him some good to see that smile. As for those words, they drew a touch of pink to the king's cheeks. ]
I guess it's only fair, isn't it? I remember a bright young man who saved my body from a dragon, and in the process, captured my soul. It's been his ever since
[ He sighed softly, grateful that Dick initiated the kiss - it was a relief to see that much initiative on his part. He kissed the brunet back gently, savoring it every second. ]
[Yes, well. Dick was naked in the king's lap, being touched and held, and he knew that this? This was feeling safe. Despite his reaction to the words earlier.]
[Eventually, the kiss ended, and Dick rested his forehead against Wally's.]
One, you didn't derail it, and two, it's been more of the same... [ He smiled softly, just looking into those brilliant blue eyes. If he could ever be truly open with anyone, it was with this man. ]
Paperwork. Overseeing the lands. Holding meetings with all the lords and ladies over this tax and that border dispute and this fete and- [ He paused. He he almost said, "that marriage offer." Lightly clearing his throat, he forced a smile back. ] The usual silly things.
[Dick's hand came up and rested against his king's cheek. Relaxing away from the bad moments earlier, he felt. Comfortable. Easy. Good, like this, held in the redhead's lap.]
[More like himself. Or like the man he thought he should have become, if it hadn't been for... that.]
[Himself. That was the second-greatest gift Wally had given him. The greatest one was, and ever would be, Wally's own love.]
What you do is important. If there is aught that I can help with, I will. You know that, don't you?
[ All he wanted was for Dick to get better, but as he thought on it... he couldn't just keep the brunet away from things like he had been doing for a while now. If Dick was going to be his consort, he'd have to act the part in public, and maybe... maybe some duties helping out in royal matters would ease things along.
If anything, he knew that some good work was good for building up tension that would need release. So as he thought on this, staring up into that handsome, sun-kissed face, he laughed softly. ]
Alright. I want you to be in charge of my schedule from now on. You get to decide who gets to see me and when they get to see me. [ To say it another way, he was trusting Dick to manage the time of the whole kingdom. ] And if you start getting the hang of that, we'll add other things.
[It took Dick a moment to consider it... and, just as he was, naked and still scarred, the weight of responsibility settled on him, making him actually ease up a little.]
[He had known he was loved, before. That, Wally had made clear, and Dick had begun believing it, sometimes in the weeks since returning. But being needed... being useful. That was something else entirely.]
[He sat back in the king's lap, just a little, blue eyes meeting the green clearer than in awhile, and gave a small bow, not taking his eyes from Wally's.]
[ Seeing that change took a good load off of Wally's mind and heart, enough to get him to smirk quite viciously at the title he'd just received. His hand snuck its way up speedily to take hold of one of Dick's nipples, and he gave it a very gentle pinch; it was meant to be nothing more than play, nothing to mean punishment, and nothing to imply... other things. ]
And don't call me things like that. You've got a right no one else has. [ He pressed his palm flat against the nipple he had pinched, and then ran his hand up along that chest, along Dick's neck, and up to his cheek. ]
You're not a slave. And you're not even below me in rank, not in any way that matters. You have all that's mine, and that includes a whole kingdom.
[Dick shivered slightly at the pinch, anyway. (Sensitive spots, those.) But he didn't look away. Even as his breath hitched, at the motion of the king's palm. (He wasn't quite responding, but there was. Pooling there that might get to such a reaction, yet.)]
[... and then his heart stopped, for a moment. Wally. Was giving him everything, and it was overwhelming. And beautiful. And he wasn't turning it down.]
[So his answer was a little feeble, but he got it out, anyway.]
I didn't say that as a slave. Promise.
[And he surged forward for another kiss. Certain, strong.]
[ The kiss was enough to actually get Wally to yield some to Dick - he'd been taking the initiative all this time with the brunet, trying to protect and guide him back to wholeness, that he hadn't had much of a chance for this. And yet here it was, Wally made a small sound at that kiss and let his body go at ease, a hidden tension just starting to loosen at Dick's strong lips. ]
Oh... [ His eyes were pleasantly hazed, as they looked into that handsome face, dreaming, practically. ]
[Oh. This look Wally was giving him, warm and mellow and just a trifle unfocused, but still... his full attention on him. It melted another sliver of ice that the years ... not as himself had left, inside Robin. It made the rest of the explanation easy.]
But lots of people can be beloved, to many other people.
[Not to him. Not to Dick.]
And you are majestic. In case nobody has told you.
[ That got Wally to laugh, much more lightheartedly than he had in a long while... almost since the last time he and Dick had been together, as children. He settled even more and just slumped further back in his chair, melting in the warmth of that body in his arms, melting in the strength that had carried Dick through the years to here, and the strength that he hoped would carry his love to wellness. ]
Majestic, hm? Maybe I'll be a lion instead of a king, then. [ The redhead chuckled leaned up to nip at Dick's lips. ] Quick, find me a witch. I tire of this form.~
[ The memory of that incident came back to him, and Wally gave Dick a wry smile. ]
You were the cutest and bravest little serpent. [ He looked at Dick in silence for a few more moments, and then let out a tiny sigh. They had things they needed to do now, didn't they? ]
If you're up for it, love, we should head down to start getting you familiar with your new routines and duties. We can even hold a small party to announce your new position. [ Wally pressed a kiss to Dick's collar. ] There can be music, and wine... and dancing. [ Another kiss to the opposite side of Dick's collar. ] I can announce you as my consort, as well- the court knows it, but it should be official.
Well, maybe, but it's still not something I want you to go through, all right?
[ Then he blinked, giving a small sigh of his own - a very happy sigh - at the casual, easy address, there. His eyes were warm and calm... and he didn't even notice at all the falling back to old thoughts as he asked, softly, ]
Of course. May I get dressed, first?
[ ... habits. Some were harder to break than others. ]
Fine, fine. [ But the corner of his mouth twitched at the question; just another reminder of what his love had been through for years and years. Instead of pointing it out this time, he simply nodded. ]
[ It was a smile as simple as that, but Dick did appreciate it, through and through. ]
[ His lips sought out Wally's once again, before he rose, gracefully to do just that. Quickly, and efficiently, but this time with the awareness that he wasn't going to be hiding in the shadow of the throne. ]
[ The confidence... probably looked good, on him. ]
