Barma wakes up an hour or so later, yawning.

Reaching to check on Al right away.

Comments

"I want to take you to more kink events, but with stricter standards of behaviour. A day for it."

Soft, stroking his cheek.

"Where you have to ask me permission to speak, where anyone who wishes to speak to you must ask me permission first. Where I sit and you rest your cheek on my knee and don't move."

[al_truism]

"I'd enjoy being your pet," he whispers back.

"I'd love all of that."

[duke_of_illusions]

"It would take tremendous discipline- and it might be very freeing for you."

[al_truism]

"Exactly."

Al gives a pleased little shiver, all the way down to his toes.

[duke_of_illusions]

"Someone likes it."

Laughing.

[al_truism]

"I like belonging to you," he huffs, softly, blushing.

"And you're the only one who treats me this way."

[duke_of_illusions]

"I hope you know it doesn't mean anything sinister."

[al_truism]

"Why would I think that?"

Al kisses his cheek, his chin.

[duke_of_illusions]

"If everyone else tells you differently-"

[al_truism]

"If anybody tries to tell me differently, they'll be wrong."

Firmly.

[duke_of_illusions]

"Good."

Smiling.

"I'm glad to know that."

[al_truism]

"I never doubt you," he tells him, firmly.

"I don't think that anything we do is wrong, and I don't regret any of it. Ever. Even the things that shake me up."

[duke_of_illusions]

"Good."

Smiling.

"Next time."

[al_truism]

"This time?"

Al cuddles up to him, hopefully.

[duke_of_illusions]

"Mmhm. We'll take you to that club and shake you a little more."

[al_truism]

"Do it," he tells him, a touch commanding because he knows it will rile him.

[duke_of_illusions]

Barma lets out a low, dark chuckle.

"Don't push in this state, Al."

[al_truism]

"This is the state I most want to push from," he whispers, confessing, squirming again underneath him, pushing his still-bare body up against Barma's.

"I'm already so there, it wouldn't take much at all-"

[duke_of_illusions]

"Do you understand that it's risky? That it might prolong, might feel a little dark-"

[al_truism]

"I know," he whispers back, lips pressed right to his ear.

"I want it. I want all of that, all of you."

[duke_of_illusions]

The world goes absolutely black. Blacker than the darkest night, without a speck of light in it, and Barma is suddenly out of arm's reach.

[al_truism]

Yes.

The thrill runs down his toes, despite the fact that he's left groping in the dark for him.

[duke_of_illusions]

He leaves him there. Ten seconds, twenty- fear play is for fear.

[al_truism]

The darkness and silence make Al wonder if Barma's blinded him, deafened him, or if it's only illusion.

Gradually, his heart rate increases, and a soft sound works its way out of him. He's breathing faster.

Normally it would take much more than this.

[duke_of_illusions]

Something winds around him in the dark, constricting him, pinning him tight to the bed, all silken and soft.
