Counting yourself out already? [ hmm. he tips his head into the warmth of the hand, gaze flicking from it to the void of their hood, his dark eyes curious. ] While I'm flattered by your compliment, I do like to form my own opinions.
Besides. [ a sniff, closing his eyes, mouth quirked up at the corners. ] I met a tiefling. My knowledge is growing unbelievably other-worldly. [ while he's mostly ragging on himself for the fact that he knows nothing about magic, it's also pointing out that everything with magic is new and exciting. see, fire hands. ]
[ he stays like that, eyes closed for the moment. it's still weird, to be touched so much, but hey! sometimes you get thrown into a game of indulgence. ]
Are you implying I don't? [ a beat. ] I'll have you know, I'm a flower in all sorts of ways.
[ give him like three weeks then you won't even have to worry about that
anyway. gu yun hates being blinded in any situation, if only because it's a give over of his trust. he just came from his time as the fragrance master, though, and...
there's a moment of hesitation. just brief - his eyes glance the room, quickly, like he's just making sure he knows where everything is.
and then, with an exhale, he closes his eyes. ] Alright. [ like that wasn't a big deal or anything ] I don't break promises. [ a beat, and then, more teasing; ] Don't do anything too odd.
they laugh a little, just a touch breathless. he closes his eyes, and they're quiet, for a moment - and in that quiet, there's a soft shuffle of fabric, like a hood coming off. a very warm palm comes up to rest over his eyes, loose and easy.
and then there are lips on his. it's a very gentle kiss, but it is a kiss nonetheless.]
true to his word, gu yun doesn't look, even if he wants to. he's used to being senseless, and having his eyes closed makes his finely tuned senses hum - it makes the warmth of their touch feel a little brighter, their scent a little stronger. he can still hear, which is disorienting in comparison, but gu yun tilts his head a bit and focuses instead on the gentle sweetness of a very soft, warm mouth on his.
his hand hovers, for a moment, before settling, curling into the fabric of the robe at the front, near the joint of the hood, and they'll likely feel him huff very softly as he returns the kiss.
it's a little funny, in a way gu yun can't (and won't) really explain - of course, his first kiss comes to him when he's unable to see. at least, perhaps, it's by choice. ]
[their other hand comes up to rest around his wrist, the hand holding onto their robes. they laugh, because they can't help themselves, and take, just a little more. they're not the kind of person to always be gentle.
they bite, gently, at his bottom lip, trying to coax him into opening his mouth, with a sound that is - not echoing, actually. it's soft and higher-pitched.]
[ that's okay. gu yun's not really a gentle person. the laugh gets him to huff again, and normally, he might say something snappy - oh, is my technique funny or what are you laughing at, because i'm laughing at the fact that i somehow still had to kiss someone blind, but luckily for everyone involved, the bite is plenty capturing of his attention. gu yun might be new to this, but he is a fast learner, and his mouth opens against theirs when coaxed no problem.
it's a little awkward, sitting in a beanbag chair. makes moving around more difficult than it really should be, but he manages to lift his other hand, and bring it up, to their shoulder, this time, and then the side of the neck, calloused hand very gentle, returning the kiss the best he can. ]
[he opens his mouth and they're quick to explore it, slow and languid and heated, like lava, like the cracks in their hands. for a second, their nails dig into his wrist, like they want to leave marks, and then - they pull back, with a final nip to his bottom lip.
because it is a little awkward - and almost like wrath is realizing it a bit late, they are super in public. the hand comes away from his eyes, and there's the sound of shuffling fabric. then, breathless:]
[ well! there went his first kiss. that's supposed to be some sort of ritual, he supposes. it mostly just feels... warm. and a little tingly, but he won't admit that, not quite ready to admit to that level of 'unplucked flower'.
gu yun exhales as wrath pulls away, and when he does open his eyes, he glances briefly down at his wrist, almost like an extra moment of privacy, before back at the hood, as he's expecting to see.
his mouth pulls into a grin, lopsided. ] Suppose that makes it easier not to kiss and tell.
[they snortlaugh, and lean back just a little bit. it's hard to tell if they're blushing, but there are faint tendrils of smoke coming from under the hood? weird.
they don't say anything about his red ears, but they do reach to touch them, running their finger along the ridge.]
Sure does. [they tease.] You gotta earn my face, babe.
that nice warm touch is - hm. that feels good. wrath will notice the bright red mole right on his earlobe if they're looking, the same color and size as the one under his eye, flat to the skin.
there's a pause, and then, because gu yun recognizes the mutually assured embarrassment destruction here, ignores it, and says - ] Are you smoking? [ sounding very gleeful. ]

they just hum, reaching up to rest a hand on the side of his face.]
The concern is more that I'm not good enough for you. [they say, cheerfully.] You haven't seen anything yet.

they very carefully stroke his cheek with their thumb.]
I like to play a little harder to get, Gu Yun. [they tell him, solemn. but then, as a follow up, they just laugh.] Tieflings are rad.

You will.

alas that's probably not the case. gu yun's grin returns, settled, all peach blossom eyes. ]
