[ JING YUAN YOUR MELANIN... Claude really thinks it's so wild that people can just travel across planets. Damn. He nearly died crossing the border from Almyra.
but honestly even jing yuan is rather astonished. what the deuce.
carefully, ] ...That might not be an incorrect way to put it.
[ he frowns, considers something, and takes another sip of his cocktail. ]
...As I thought. My apologies in advance, Claude.
[ i lied about not being problematic again because he leans in to bite him a second time, on the same cheek (face). not hard enough to leave teeth marks, still enough to leave jing yuan with an abstract sense of horror. THIS IS A BABY...
he then sets down his cup entirely. ] We should stop drinking these.
[ eyes claude's drink like uh oh how far did he get. ]
[ if he's old enough to kill people, then he's old enough to bite jing yuan...
He just watches as Jing Yuan puts the cup down before looking back at him, and, hm. That does seem to be pretty sound advice, except he's leaning in before he even realizes it, teeth closing down over the smooth skin of Jing Yuan's jaw.
Chomp. ]
...
[ He does linger a second, like a deer in headlights, before ricocheting back. ]
[ it really does look like he's gonna kword jing yuan in that icon
jing yuan blinks back at claude, perfectly still as he waits for him to withdraw. (omo's reaction: his eyes are so green... FLORSHED!!!!) and his lips quirk into a smile when claude suddenly snaps back to attention. he then reaches up to absently rub at his jaw, where claude had bit him. ]
An appetite stimulant, clearly.
[ he huffs softly, definitely looking amused. (thinks about how he dragged claude all the way back here because i couldn't READ, and now they can't even enjoy their DRINKIES,) ]
...Hmm. Would you care for a game instead?
[ handwaves them drawing out a board game in the sand and kickflips back into the gy ]

[ He nods, settling down on one of the towels and patting the spot next of him for Jing Yuan to sit down as well.
Also sips his drink... Even though Claude would prefer a beer. Makes him drink a spicy cocktail. ]
Starskiffs, huh. Do you also have travel between planets?
no subject
he takes a seat and arranges himself comfortably, within the confines of the shade because he was denied his birthright, melanin. ]
We do—it is the crux of our trade, in fact. Though it has been a rather long time since I've had the chance to venture beyond the Jade Gate.
[ he smiles out over the horizon, and takes another sip. ]
This was not the destination I was anticipating, but—
[ SUDDENLY gets distracted. he swings his gaze back on claude and stares VERY INTENTLY. ]
...Would you mind staying still for a moment? [ he is calculating BITE trajectory. ]
no subject
But, uh, okay!
He blinks slowly at him. ]
There a bug or something?
1/3
...Yes.
2/3
he puts a hand on claude's shoulder, and leans in to bite his cheek (face). it's a pretty light nip.
the 'bug'... it is jing yuan. ]
3/3
...I don't know why I did that.
no subject
He will colour a little, but he might have too much melanin for it to be easily noticeable. ]
What, you mean I haven't suddenly become irresistible...?
