[Again he has to take a moment. Even now he can't tell for sure if Zhao wants what he's offering. Maybe a more blunt approach?]

If you think so, why don't you do something about it? Or are you all talk and no action?

[Maybe that was the game. But now Kaidan was being a little more direct. Or at least it sounded like he was trying to be more blunt. It could have been a tease to get Zhao to do something embarrassing--but Zhao was not embarrassed about his preferences or advances.]

You're asking for it, Kai-chan. [He said with a move forward that was quick and fluid, like that of flowing water. Not meant to be intimidating, but get the blood flowing in its own right.] I'm not going to hold back if that's what you're asking.

[He got close, uncomfortably close, chests practically touching, and placed a hand on Kaidan's hip. His other hand reached up to touch Kaidan's face, fingers running along Kaidan's jaw until his hand was behind the marine's head. He stared into Kaidan's eyes.]

Yeah. That's exactly what I'm doing.

[He especially likes the sound of "no holding back". He promised to himself he would stop doing that. And so he waits, but isn't just standing there while Zhao makes a move on him. Kaidan's hand moves to gently grip onto Zhao's wrist and pull his hand a little more firmly on his hip. He meets Zhao's eyes steadily, wetting his lips a little.

He doesn't know if closing those last few inches is him winning or losing this game they're playing with each other, but screw it. A part of not holding back is kissing Zhao like he's wanted to for... a month? Maybe even longer than that. And it's not a chaste kiss, either. Kaidan is already putting heat into it, making damn sure Zhao knows he means it]

[That broke whatever barrier was left in Zhao. There was no denying a reaction like that meant it was wanted. There was the hint of a smile on the gangster's lips as Kaidan began the kiss. Zhao kissed back in return. More than that, he pressed further and very clearly reacted to the heat of it with plenty of his own.

He pushed his body into Kaidan's body, too. His hips pressed into Kaidan's and eventually he forced the other backwards into the hull of the ship. His grip on Kaidan's head was strong though not necessarily meant to cause harm of course, but as the kiss progressed and the heat took over, that hand slid down and began to explore other parts of Kaidan's body.]

[Once he's sure Zhao's hand isn't going anywhere, he slides his own up the length of Zhao's arm and around to his back to pull the other even closer to him. Kaidan nips at Zhao's lower lip, a silent ask if this can get even more heated. He is very glad now he didn't wear anything bulky like a sweater or hoodie so he can actually feel Zhao touching him.

At some point during this make-out session, he quite literally gets turned on and his biotics flare up. The energy will just be a tingling sensation to Zhao wherever he touches Kaidan. For his own part, Kaidan is too busy enjoying this to notice or care that he's glowing blue]

[That was cute. Asking for permission. In such a sweet manner. Zhao would laugh if he wasn't too busy responding with a more forceful action. However...

Before he can get too into the deepened kiss, his eyes flutter enough to notice the strange blue glow surrounding Kaidan. He pulls back, a bit startled. Of course, he recognizes the glow as familiar a second later and regrets the reaction. But now that he's aware of it--there's no way he's ignoring it.

His head tilts to one side as he stares at Kaidan with amusement and he giggles (yes, that high pitched laugh can only be described as an outright giggle) as he runs his hands very slowly, very deliberately across Kaidan's body. The tingling sensation of that flair of power played across his fingertips and entertained the gangster as he experimented with it.]

Well, that makes things interesting.

[Kaidan had warned something like this would happen, but he thought it was going to be a static shock. He wasn't expecting to light up like this. He's a little embarrassed when Zhao pulls away. Kaidan is about to drop the barrier when Zhao reaches to touch him.

Kaidan goes still and hardly breathes as Zhao's fingers move over him. His breathing is a little uneven but he doesn't interrupt the touching]

It's, uhm. It's been a while.

[He can drop the barrier but Zhao doesn't seem to mind it. Kaidan pulls him close, kissing his lips, his jaw, his neck. Letting him feel the tingle of biotic energy]

[It's a strange sensation but not unpleasant to say the least. It's when Kaidan goes for his throat though that it tickles Zhao and the Chinese man giggles again due to the feeling.]

That's a shame.

[To Kaidan's words, to the fact that it's been a while for him, not any of the rest of what they're doing. If anything Zhao has decided he likes it. The concept of being able to literally feel the power Kaidan wields has a certain appeal that Zhao won't dwell too much on, but he definitely enjoys it. He wondered, briefly, if he could match Kaidan's biotics with his own Heat aura. The idea quickly fizzled though as he knew that sort of intense aura typically only came whenever in battle. He didn't want to that right now.

He wanted to explore more. Feel more. Kiss more.]

Why don't we do something about that, hm?

[Zhao brought a hand up and gripped Kaidan's jaw, redirecting Kaidan's mouth towards Zhao's own lips, and reengaging their earlier kiss.]

Edited 2022-02-06 18:57 (UTC)

[He doesn't seem to mind the man-handling Zhao does by gripping his jaw. If anything, he seems to respond well to it. Though that may just be the touching in general he's responding to. His eyes are already dropping half-closed before Zhao even gets close enough to kiss him.

And this time Kaidan's lips are parted, ready to make the embrace deeper. His hands slide along Zhao's arms, trying to position the other to touch him. He's still glowing and he can't seem to turn it off. If Kaidan wasn't more focused on wanting Zhao close, he'd think more about why this is. But really, he just doesn't want to. He wants to make out with this very hot guy]

[Zhao has no objection to diving right into Kaidan's mouth, asserting his claim to the other man. Nor does he have any qualms about using the momentum to touch Kaidan's body, pressing against Kaidan and shoving him boldly against the wall. His hands slide over Kaidan's torso as he feels the electricity sparking through Kaidan's form, presses firmer on a second bypass to feel more of the muscle beneath.

It was a public area but hopefully no one would come across the two men making out. Because Zhao was only getting started.]

[He shivers just a little as he prods back, wanting a claim of his own. Wanting Zhao pressed up against his body, those hands touching him. Maybe the biotics are a result of all his pent-up feelings. Brain Camp didn't really have a biotic sex-ed class. Whatever the reason, he's still glowing.

Eventually Kaidan pulls back enough to take some much-needed breaths]

Not bad.

[He couldn't resist being a little bit snarky]

Oh, that sounds like a challenge to me.

[He countered with a gleam in his eye. But he had a wry smirk on his lips that he couldn't quite keep locked down. Snark was his bread and butter, and receiving it back was as much fun for him as dishing it out. He liked this side of Kaidan. It was interesting.]

Is that what that is? You want to provoke me into more?

[Not that he really needed to be provoked to do more at this point. He was into it. He was into Kaidan. Definitely.]

Depends.

[He raises an eyebrow and drops his barrier]

Are you up for the challenge?

[He stares evenly, silently daring. It's something he likes about interacting with Zhao: the push and pull, the way they challenge each other. And Kaidan is issuing one now: try to make me turn my biotics on again]

I live for the challenge.

[It sounded like all bravado, but Zhao had a matching gleam to his eyes that spoke of his willingness to back it up with action. He just took a moment to look Kaidan up and down from head to toe, as if calculating his next move with carefulness.

Then Zhao moved back in towards Kaidan. His hips pressed against Kaidan and undulated carefully. His lips went for Kaidan's but after a quick nip Zhao changed tactics on the other man immediately, ran his tongue along Kaidan's jaw until he stopped at the point where the bone met the neck. And then he bit just below, at the soft part of the neck. It was a light nip but full of teeth and exploratory, waiting for a response before he backed off or went more extreme.]

[He presses his body against the wall, needing the support as Zhao started moving against him. He tries to breathe normally but it's hard not to react to the attention, to not arch into it or grab Zhao and take some initiative. He trembles a little from the restraint.

Kaidan can't seem to stop from reacting once Zhao's tongue starts moving along his skin. He lets out a little whimper, head tilting up to give the other all the room he could want. And then he feels teeth and Kaidan's hand pushes into Zhao's hair, weaving through the locks to hold him in place. It's as clear a sign as any that he wants more of that]

[More than the hands in his hair holding him in place, it's the little whimper that escapes Kaidan that sets Zhao alight. It quickens his blood. Makes him want more. And he knew he would have to try to produce it if he wanted it.

He took the cue and bit harder next time, alternating between piercing nips of teeth and quick, sloppy kisses over the area to sooth. He worked his way down Kaidan's neck down to the collarbone where he plied a little longer.]

[He curls his fingers into Zhao's hair. Kaidan's breathing comes out a little harder and he leans his weight more against the wall. He hasn't had this kind of attention in... he can't really remember if he ever has.

His whimper is a little bit louder this time. And... yep, there it goes, he's lighting up again]

Hah. Shit. I... I don't know why I'm doing that.

[Zhao's response was to chuckle against Kaidan's collarbone. He kissed the area one last time before nuzzling against Kaidan's jaw as he looked up to meet Kaidan's eyes.]

I win. [He whispered with a sly grin.] I like it. All you have to wonder is what I'm going to do next to keep it going.

[He wets his lips and takes in a shaky breath, brushing fingers through Zhao's hair]

And how long do I have to wait before I find out?

[Zhao moved to run his teeth across Kaidan's lower lip before backing off again and chuckling. He made a show of thinking about it. Then:]

They say delayed gratification has its own kind of rewards. [He teased.]

[He turns off his biotics again, shrugging]

If you say so. I can be patient.

[Zhao laughed at that, though some of the excitement left him due to his surprise at simple the reaction. Maybe he was a bit disappointed by the lack of glow, or the ease with which Kaidan bypassed his teasing.

But. There was always the challenge of reigniting it.]

Come on, killer.

[Zhao grabbed Kaidan by the hand and began to lead him away.]

Let's go somewhere private before I do more than light you up like a Christmas tree.

[He lets out a soft chuckle and follows. He figured that calling Zhao on his bullshit would give him this result. And his absolutely not going to complain about going somewhere more private]
