Yeah this just does not compute with MK's previous positions on basically everything.
"...Do... you still want me to keep "kiddo" for only you?" Macaque asks very slowly, clearly choosing his words carefully. Because he did call Cole that before.
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
MK knew this was a 180 for himself. He knew it was like it was coming out of nowhere. And it was. Like a lot of other things MK found out about himself. Things he's been thinking about a lot while lying in bed since he got back.
"You can if you want and I can share it. If you got other people you wanna call kiddo, I'll share too," MK kissed Macaque's hand after he said it.
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
So... MK found out what he was made for and now doesn't have jealousy issues anymore? Because he found out... that he was made to be sacrificed and reset all life... this all seems like something that should probably be a red flag.
But it's too big to get into right this very second.
"I'll have to think about it. You really threw me for one." He snuggles closer to MK again. "I'm glad if you're more comfortable in your relationships though. Does that mean you feel less jealous about the kids?"
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
MK snuggled into Macaque. Everyone had tried to stop him. Begged him not to go into the pillar. Monkey King was willing to go in as a substitute. MK knew his place with everyone. At least back home. It helped. Though the darker side of it was that part of him that was dealing with being made to sacrifice himself. A combination of healthy and unhealthy adaption. He nodded.
"Yeah, I am. I feel less jealous. A lot less, actually. I've had a long time to think about it and talked to people. I'm ready to talk when Korone is. We're already texting about it. ...I don't know when everyone would be comfortable, them and me, with me coming over to your big awesome room. I can't really say. But we can wait until they are and I am. That's how it should be."
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
Macaque is so relieved to hear that, he could honestly cry (he doesn't, he's been working on his crying reflex ever since the heart game put it into overdrive). He's not... entirely sure he believes it all the way, but he gives no indication of that. MK needs encouragement, and Macaque provides it with a quick but enthusiastic kiss.
"Your place there will wait until you're comfortable and everyone else is. There's no hurry at all." It gets complica-- no, not that word. It's a lot to juggle with wanting MK to always feel like he has a place with Macaque and there being very literally a place where he can't go right now, but it is what it is. Less jealousy is better than before, and Macaque will take better.
"You're sure your ready for that conversation? You don't have to tell me what you'll say, that's between you two, but I just want to make sure you can hear her without spiraling."
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
MK nodded. He wasn't sure when everyone being ready would happen. There was a lot and MK honestly wasn't going to feel safe there and the feeling was likely mutual. Waiting was the answer. He kissed back and smiled. He nodded.
"I know I'm ready. I won't spiral. I got a plan. We're gonna be comfortable, somewhere safe and neutral, and I'm bringing snacks. She's bringing her awesome hot chocolate. And I'm gonna meditate before. Sandy taught me how to meditate better. I mean, while being almost crushed by a giant snake thanks to one of the colored stone guardians but a lesson learned is a lesson learned."
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
--Wow. Macaque wishes that it didn't take MK almost sacrificing himself to get to all these epiphanies, but at this point it happened and he'll take the good that comes from it. He so very deeply hopes that it's real change and not just the high from learning/defying his purpose.
"It's a good plan. Remind me to thank Sandy." Learning to meditate is important when it comes to dealing with life on an even keel.
"I'll be hoping it goes well, for everyone's sake. I'm so proud of you, kiddo."
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
"Awww. Thanks. Honestly, I have no idea how it is going to go. I'm hoping it goes well. But we'll see. Not gonna bank either way. Just going to be honest, do my best, and let Korone be and react how she wants. Because it's her choice and feelings and those only she gets to, you get it," MK said with a smile. He snuggled closer into Macaque. He reached into his jacket and pulled out the gift.
"Here. I got this for you. It's a full year pass to the Theater in Sunwaning. They do plays and musicals and stuff. You can take anyone you want to any show for a year."
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
"All she really wants is to be treated as herself. For you to be honest and like or not like her for her, not for being Macaque's daughter or whatever else. So you're on the right track." Letting her react as she will and not trying to force it, that's a good way to look at it. "It'll go how it goes. I love you no matter what." And he loves her, of course. Even if they never get along and that orange sink goes unused, that's okay as long as they're both okay.
Macaque smiles at the theater pass. His kids got him something similar as part of their Father's Day Present Extravaganza but it was to a different theater. It'll be nice having both. "Thanks, kiddo. I'll put it to good use, and if something comes along that you might like I'll definitely ask you. I think we owe each other a date anyway, even if it's to a piercing parlor."
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
"That's my plan. We'll see how it all goes." That was all MK could say.
"We could go get our ears pierced then maybe just go somewhere nice and quiet? Since it is gonna hurt. Then we can just cuddle. I'd love a date with you," MK purred and nuzzled noses with Macaque.
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
Seeing how it goes is a good plan. Especially if MK is this relaxed about it. Less pressure all around would be good here, and Macaque isn't trying to add any (apart from what his existence in this situation naturally warrants, and which he can do nothing about).
"Yeah, I'm ready for it to hurt like hell. Worth it if I get to wear your star." Very much so. "I'd love to. Another picnic? We can split up the food duties. And then maybe a movie? Catching up on those takes a lot of time."
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
"That sounds amazing," MK said with a soft smile. "I'll make sure to bring some special food I've been planning for you. I can work out something for the movie too so it'll be just the two of us."
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
"Next week," MK said with another murr. "I'm going on that Waterfall quest and it's gonna take a while. But I'll be back after. Then we can go?" He pressed close.
"But you have me from now until then~" His eyes lidded as he gives Macaque those monkey bedroom eyes.
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
Macaque leans closer so his lips brush MK's as he speaks. "You tell me what you're in the mood for. All I want is you." It's been so long, he practically doesn't care as long as he can touch MK everywhere.
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
MK shivers as Macaque speaks against his lips. He murrs for him and whispers back.
"I want you inside me. So drive me crazy. Take it slow, use all your tricks, touch me everywhere. And when you're gone, I'm going to pin you to the ground and fuck and bite you until you lose your mind~"
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
Macaque grins as MK speaks, and the shadows around them start converging on MK.
"Done. How are you with sensory deprivation?" It's getting dark around them, so it should be clear that Macaque is referring to using shadows to block MK's vision. Not necessarily anything close on his face, just thick darkness where he can't see what's coming.
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
The shadows converge on them, darkening the area until MK is effectively blind, and some shadows start turning solid and creeping up his hands and arms like vines.
Macaque leans forward to kiss him deeply, but slowly, as requested. His fingertips and tail brush along MK's shoulders and back with light, teasing touches. "I missed you, kiddo."
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
MK couldn't see anything now and it was okay. It was more than okay when he felt the shadows, hands, and tail brushing over his body. He was surrounded by Macaque. The kiss was deep and slow, sensual and passionate. He gasped when the kiss broke.
"I missed you too, my Warrior. Hmmm. I feel you all over already," He said with an obvious smile in his voice and one maybe Macaque could see. The darkness night blind MK but he was sure Macaque could still see him.
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
Macaque's kisses move down to MK's neck, fangs teasing his skin. Meanwhile his shadows recline MK backwards, holding his arms and chest and waist, until he's lying on the ground -- except he's not. The shadows pillow him with only the merest hint of being physical, so it feels like he's floating in the darkness, except for the shadows that hold his arms and chest and hips and legs.
There's a sensation of wind kicking up just for a moment, and then MK's clothes are off and Macaque is kissing and nipping down his chest. Each sensation is all the more potent when one can't see it coming, but Macaque can see just fine.
This is so different than screwing around with his clone.

Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event

Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
"We can take it all nice and slow. Just how you like it."
Re: Voice - Backdated to before the Waterfall event
"I also like it when you shove me around all hard and fast, remember? There's time for both."
