[This was not clicking for some reason. He has been staring at these reports for the past hour and half, nothing having been accomplished besides from papers being shuffled around in a semblance of productivity and knives thrown into the pillar behind him out of sheer frustration. His fingers tapping along the worn metal to keep himself from doing further property damage at this rate.
The bottom line was that stress was gnawing at him.
Not from the job though. If anything, reports should came as second nature after the past few months and coordinating had been relatively easy once the rough first week passed by. Being a vanguard should cause less stress than doing actually fieldwork yet here he was at a breaking point almost.
There was nothing. Absolutely nothing. Those stupid letters and photos and other bullshit weren't coming in anymore.
Something had to have happened and he's stuck here in this goddamn tower like a fresh rezzed moron.
His hands were effectively tied as well. No one could be sent out without the other two's approval and even then it'd be brought forward to discussion by the head vanguard. Which means that nothing could happen for days and he'll be sitting on his ass like he already was. All it did was make him all the more frustrated about having given up his freedom to leave as he so pleased because at least then someone would be out there trying to figure out what happened.
The hunter buries his face in his hands with an exhausted sigh leaving him. He probably looked like hell at this rate. Throwing himself into long hours had made his sleep schedule an abysmal handful of hours in the past few days. Half the time he didn't know how he wasn't passing out during meetings. Be easy to. Pull the hood further down, lean down on the table and maybe get an hour or two of on and off rest. Might be the best time to try it out to be quite honest since the hall was dead before attempting it when there'd be actual repercussions to getting caught.
He grunts after stretching out on the table some, pillowing his head with his arms for something close to comfortable. Shade is called out of transmat to keep a watch on things while an attempt at a nap was made. The ghost whirling softly in concern but does as told.
Things suck. Might as well try to ignore it for the time being.]

He'd much rather focus on the heat of James' skin beneath his lips and the slight rustling of metal and cloth as he undoes the first clasp and slips his hand under the hunter's breastplate.
The underarmor is still there, of course, but that doesn't deter him at all, and he rakes his fingers across the man's chest, stopping only once to tease at a covered nipple as he trails wet, open-mouthed kisses down the column of his throat.]
no subject
Date: 2016-10-14 04:48 pm (UTC)From:[He arches off of the chair at the roaming hand, grumbling low in his throat with the teasing touches. Soon enough he's settling back down and making an attempt at staying relaxed.]
Though that's not usually your style...
no subject
Date: 2016-10-16 10:58 pm (UTC)From:[That small hitch in his breath, the arch of his back, those are rewards in themselves, and he grins toothily into the crux of James' shoulder as he rubs small circles with his thumb, teasing a nipple to hardness.]
Just gotta work everything right. Takes some skill.
no subject
Date: 2016-10-18 08:36 pm (UTC)From:[There's a soft pleased rumble building up in his chest as he savors the fingers on him, closing his eyes in content enjoyment. Hopefully the armor would get taken off sooner rather than later. Though the titan did say that he wanted to take his time to so call remember how to take everything off.]
You are rather skilled.
no subject
Date: 2016-10-19 12:06 am (UTC)From:I like to think so.
[But after a moment he abandons his work on the breastplate, laughing under his breath, warm and low against Jame's throat. Instead he busies himself with the waist of the man's pants, slipping one hand beyond all the armor and strapping to wind about him with a gentle hand.]
Then again, don't have to nearly anything off to get to the good part, yeah?
no subject
Date: 2016-10-19 01:28 am (UTC)From:[He's once more arching up off the chair, cursing under his breath as he scrabbles against the arms before tightening his grip. That was cheating but he wasn't going to argue against it.]
Apparently yea.
no subject
Date: 2016-10-24 07:49 pm (UTC)From:[He smirks triumphantly at his hunter's reaction, laughing into his shoulder armor as he strokes him firm and teasingly slow. It's always such a reward to see James come undone, and he rewards the display with a nip to his jaw.]
no subject
Date: 2016-10-24 11:07 pm (UTC)From:[And with that, another moan slips out unhindered as he rocks his hips up into the touch.]
no subject
Date: 2016-10-29 03:40 am (UTC)From:[He always will; there's just something about seeing James come so undone that always strikes him to the core. Perhaps it's the raw emotion, the show of vulnerability from a hunter normally so well composed. Perhaps it's knowing that James is enjoying himself. Perhaps it's something else entirely. Whatever the reason, it's more than enough encouragement for him.
His thumb slips over the head of the man's length, spreading slick almost lazily as he leans in and captures James' mouth to drink down the noises he's making.]

Date: 2016-10-29 05:35 am (UTC)From:His hand coming up to bury in Liam's hair and tug him down further with a encouraging groan. Hips continuing to work in tandem with the touches.]
no subject
Date: 2016-11-01 12:15 am (UTC)From:You're beautiful.
[And then he's sinking down to his knees, placing himself between the vanguard's thighs with a low moan until he's able to nuzzle at his length.]
So goddamn beautiful.
[The words are quiet, reverent, and he gazes up fondly for a split second before leaning forward and running his tongue from base to tip.]
no subject
Date: 2016-11-02 01:08 am (UTC)From:His breath is taken away at the wet heat that shoots an electrifying shudder up his spine. It takes a bit for him to figure out what words are let alone formulated them.]
Liam please...
no subject
Date: 2016-11-03 01:42 am (UTC)From:[There's no teasing now, just reverence and love in his tone as he breathes against James' skin. As his eyes slip shut, he leans in to take the head of the man's length between his lips, laving attention to it with the flat of his tongue as his hands find the hunter's hips. He makes no move to keep him still, and instead just braces himself as he takes James deeper and deeper.]
no subject
Date: 2016-11-04 01:03 am (UTC)From:[His knuckles go white with strain against the chair's arms as he sucks in a sharp breath, tensing up worse than he had before. It takes a couple of seconds for him to settle back down and panting softly.]
no subject
Date: 2016-11-05 02:45 am (UTC)From:He works the man gently, almost reverently, with his mouth, taking great care to make sure every moment was the best it possibly could be.]

Date: 2016-11-10 11:39 pm (UTC)From:And so he takes everything James is willing to give, swallowing around the man's length as he rocks forward and moaning encouragingly for the hunter to continue.]

Date: 2016-11-11 12:27 am (UTC)From:L-Liam...
[Shit, come on hunter. Use your words.]
Fuck I want you...please.

Date: 2016-11-16 02:32 am (UTC)From:Yeah, yeah okay. How? Where?
no subject
Date: 2016-11-16 03:05 am (UTC)From:I don't care as long as you fuck me.
no subject
Date: 2016-11-26 01:31 am (UTC)From:Do we have-?
[The words slip out between kisses, hurried fingers making short work of James' armor until he's able to press himself close without any distraction.]
I mean here.
no subject
Date: 2016-11-26 02:57 am (UTC)From:He nods towards his desk, panting.]
Bottom drawer. Left side.
no subject
Date: 2016-11-26 04:13 am (UTC)From:[Especially how well prepared his hunter was, apparently, and he presses in close for another deep kiss, pinning James to the chair with his bulk and using the advantage to reach between them to start working at the man's undersuit.]
Desk? Chair? Wall?
[He questions between kisses.]
no subject
Date: 2016-11-26 04:53 am (UTC)From:[He laughs at the half-assed tease while surrendering to the pin, not fighting against it as he rocks up against him with a needy groan. His hips still when hurried hands move over to rid him of the last of his clothes.]
no subject
Date: 2016-11-28 12:47 pm (UTC)From:When he finally breaks away, there's a half-smile gracing his lips, and he nuzzles the hunter.]
Chair means you ride, not much room for much else. Up to you.
