( It's briefly jarring, a blink and you miss it shifting of space. He'd been there when Gojo had started mastering it, and he hadn't necessarily liked it then either. Not that he thought the skill was abhorrent or anything. It always just confused the senses. Here and now he takes his time to fuss with his kimono, like the blip might have mussed it, hands careful as he glances to the shrine. )
You've gotten better.
( Mild, and a little distracted, but then he's taking Gojo's hand in his own and tugging him very carefully down a side alley. His friend will notice the curse attached to one of the walls, a being made mostly of eyes that flutters thick lashes once and then seems satisfied. There's an unassuming gate down here, a little keypad attached. He taps in the code easily, body relaxed for the most part. )
Through here. We'll have to be quiet. The girls sometimes keep odd hours at the weekends.
Seamless, right? [ when he was in school, it had still be short distances, and it was difficult to do - resulting in an often jarring, bumpy ride along for anyone else or anything he tried to move on his own. ]
[ he's pleased with the praise, a bit more pep in his step as he follows getou down the side alley, fingers lacing together. just a curse to watch the gate on top of the veil and wards? old school, but getou always has been, and it suits him, to trust his curses and himself to protect his home over all else. ]
[ well, and a keypad, apparently. so even getou suguru embraces a little bit of technology. ] I'll can behave, when the situation calls for it.
[ he gives getou's hand a squeeze, following him through the gate. he could look around, get a lay of the compound... but really, he only wants to look at getou. the way his hair falls now that it's longer and heavier, the broadness of his shoulders. there's a little tension, but not as much as he'd expect. ]
( He sneaks Gojo a glance, a singular black eyebrow arching as he lets those eyes drift over him. )
Hopefully not for the whole night.
( Flirting right there and then despite his caution, though he doesn't give his old friend the chance to retaliate, just tugs him through another door and into the building. It's dark inside, somewhere a television blares with bright, american voices. Geto glances briefly towards the sound but instead of leading Gojo that way he takes the route away, throw a winding little hall and towards his bedroom. They make it unscathed, uncaught. He only lets his breath out when he's pulled the other man through, leaning past him to lock the door with a laugh, low and throaty. )
Did that remind you of all the times we had to sneak back into the dorms, or is it just me?
[ gojou doesn't have a chance to trip over his words, so his feet will have to do, stumbling a little as getou yanks him inside the threshold. probably in ignorance of the brilliant pink color of gojou's cheeks, too. it shouldn't surprise him, getou was always great at flirting when he bothered to do it, but observing it and receiving it are clearly a world apart. ]
[ he keeps his comments to himself as they slip down narrow hallways to a room at the end. gojou lets himself be pulled through the sliding door, watching getou's face as he laughs and reminisces. it's the first time he's seen all the tension melt out of those broad shoulders all night. ]
Everyone assumed I was the one dragging you out and getting you into trouble, but you suggested we sneak out or dodge our handler to get noodles half the time. [ if it was to placate gojou with late-night conbini runs, well, that's really besides the point. ]
[ getou still has him cornered between the door and himself, so gojou takes advantage of the proximity and leans in to press a kiss to the corner of getou's mouth. ] Never got to end with a kiss, though.
You could tell them now. They'd probably believe you. Add it to my veritable list of crimes.
( The kiss is sweet, he feels it prickling against his skin as they both breathe. He pulls back to look at Gojo in the dark of his room, the windows half shuttered and no lights on. He could put one on, he thinks, but then he finds he likes the mood of it. )
Satoru -.
( A start, a stop. His tone has shifted between one breathe and the next, gone low and tender instead of teasing. His hands fall against his old friend's hips, rucking the fabric of his yukata beneath greedy fingers. When he leans in this time it's with a kiss far more intent, pressing the other man against the door so his mouth can capture his, a desperation unfolding in his chest. It doesn't take long for the kiss to turn needy, he licks his way into Gojo's mouth with determination, chasing the faintest taste of the soju from behind his teeth. )
[ it’s easier in the dark, even though he can see anything it could try to hide anyway, he can feel Getou relax in the blanket of it. hands on his hips ruck up the fabric of his kimono, and gojou’s find themselves tangling in that dark hair as he surges into the kiss. ]
[ getou pushes him up against the door and it elicits a sharp gasp, low exhale as their hips press flush together. ] Suguru.
[ he cups getou’s jaw, palm sliding down the column of his neck and skimming the skin peeking out of the collar of his kimono, thumb brushing along the line of his collar bone before gojou’s palm is dragging down getou’s chest, tracing every curve and dip, the sharp jut of ribs and plane of his toned stomach before he grips at his waist. a body he never had a chance to explore this way when they were young, one he’s hungry to learn now. ]
( He laughs without meaning to, a startled huff of sound that sounds boyish, briefly shy. He makes up for it by letting his mouth drag against the line of Gojo's jaw, nosing up to just below his ear so his lips can press against his pulse point. It means his words are muffled, lips forming the words against skin. )
Do you want to go to bed with me, Satoru?
( An old purr, but shaped into something new. He drags his teeth there after, lightly, just enough to be something. )
Because that's where compliments like that get you.
( Teasing, but he hooks fingers into fabric and tugs ever so slightly, taking a step back like he'll lead him if he's given the go-to. )
[ things he never imagined actually hearing from getou’s lips, pressed against his skin or anywhere else. but it’s a high too good not to chase to hear that shy laugh, breathless and warm. it’s how he remembers getou at the best of times. ]
Do you invite everyone who tells you how good you look into your bed - or just me? [ he lets Getou tug him toward, eyes lidded and low as he follows him over to the futon. ]
Be aware there’s really only one right answer. [ now and in general, as gojou’s fingers wind in getou’s belt and tug at it, loosening it. that dark kimono goes a little also around getou’s waist, and gojou’s eyes follow it, the strip of skin peeking out between the loosened neckline inspiring a flush high in his cheeks. ]
( There's very little severity in it, his eyes sparkle in the dim light of his bedroom, catlike amusement. ) Ah, Satoru, no need to worry. I'm very discerning.
( He talks a big game, plays at the pantomime villain, pretends to be the seductress, but he's always had a soft, evasive heart and there's never been anyone clever enough to catch it. Or anyone else , maybe. Because there had been Gojo Satoru, and if Geto had thought about kissing him as a teenager then he's sure he's on an extensive list. He sinks down onto the futon slowly, hands shifting to Gojo's hips and tugging him in close, head tipped upwards to smile at him through a slant of light. )
Come here.
( Coaxing, drawing the other man down with him and then promptly rolling him onto his back atop of sheets that smell like Geto, hair falling over his shoulder to hide them behind the curtain of it. )
What about you, mm? Do I have to fight off other contenders? I could do it.
