Kersen sometimes did this thing where when he was feeling his worst, he tried to look his best. Elaborate drag when he was the most down, for example. Like maybe he could force cheerfulness with sequins and lipstick.

This time, he couldn't seem to muster up the energy for drag, though. What "look" said 'I just found out a lover is a serial killer'? Particularly coupled with 'what does this say about my taste in men'? Finally, he'd just gone with the forced cheerfulness: dark purple leather pants and a shirt (gifted to him by an employee years ago) that read OF COURSE I'M PRO-GAY, DO YOU THINK I WORK THIS HARD TO BE AN AMATEUR GAY in bright rainbow colors.

... also he'd started smoking again. Which was a little ironic since he was pretty sure that any effect they had on him was purely psychosomatic.

However, at the moment he was having a smoke break outside his bar. It was fairly early yet, just past 9pm. The streets were still full, lively with people leaving restaurants and shops, heading into bars and theaters. He liked this time of night, where the world was still alive. Wished he could experience more of it.

Some asshole walking by threw a homophobic slur at him, and he was briefly, stupidly tempted to flash his fangs as a threat. Instead he said, "The most fabulous you'll ever see, honey," and flicked the cigarette to the ground. Luckily it was the cowardly sort of asshole, and he just stuck up his middle finger and kept walking.

Fin was drunk and a bit high, having been tempted out for a night of club hopping by a producer on the show he was filming for the beeb. However, the producer had lost interest when it had become apparent that Fin wasn't interested in putting out, no matter how high he got him, and Fin was slowly making his way home now.

He'd missed most of the exchange, but he slowed as he spotted Kersen, coming up behind him and speaking softly in his ear.

"Most fabulous what?" he purred, resting his chin on the vampire's shoulder and humming happily to himself.

Kersen actually jumped a little when he felt someone come up behind him, but he knew from his scent that it was Fin even before he spoke.

"The most fabulous fucking fairy," said Kersen with a snort. Then he couldn't help but see the irony and chuckle a bit. "And now you're here. You're probably more fabulous too."

"The prince of fabulous fucking fairies," Fin said cheerfully, wrapping an arm around Kersen and kissing his cheek.

kersen

Kersen smiled. "Were you coming to see me?" he asked. "You did promise me a rain check after your Christmas party..."

From:

"I was heading home, but I'm here and you're here, and I'm in no rush," Fin smiled, rubbing Kersen's back affectionately.

From:

kersen

"Well, if you'd like to have a drink..." Kersen glanced to the door, where the bouncer was looking at them. Kersen wondered if he could smell Fin from there.

"But I don't know how comfortable you are being around a bunch of vampires, we could also go downstairs."

From:

prince_of_nymphs

"Oh, I don't know. I fancy a bit of attention," Fin grinned, wetting his lips with a seductive flick of his tongue.

From:

kersen

Kersen's gaze went to his mouth briefly and then he said, "Well all right. Don't wander away from me, though. I can't vouch that all the vampires here have self control as good as mine." He smiled at Fin. "You do smell very good."

And he was particularly paranoid after Bonnie had attacked alcuin.

"I'll be on best behaviour," Fin assured him, a grin on his lips and a playful rumble in his voice. "Cross my heart and hope to... Well, you know."

From:

kersen

"Mmmm okay," said Kersen. Then he tilted his head and added, "Actually ah, unless you were hoping to be a snack for someone - which I wouldn't recommend - is it okay if I suggest that you're... mine? Easy enough to do with body language. And then you won't be bothered no matter how good you smell." Probably.

"Only if you think you can sell it," Fin smirked. "I'm very hard to own sometimes..."

From:

kersen

It was true; Eric for example would probably be a much easier sell, since he radiated dominance naturally. Though Kersen was still a vampire.

"Come along then, I'll get you a drink," Kersen said, and put a possessive hand on the small of Fin's back, staying close to him as they headed to the door.

"No one bothers him," Kersen said tersely to the vampire bouncer, who looked at Fin and then nodded.

Fin laughed a little, leaning into the touch, visibly intoxicated as he let Kersen guide him.

"I should warn you, I've had a few," he whispered.

A few drinks, a few hits...

From:

kersen

"Have you?" Kersen chuckled. As they walked in, some people turned their attention to them. Not everyone; some of the younger vampires may not have senses good enough to smell him across the room if he wasn't bleeding. But a lot.

From:

prince_of_nymphs

Fin seemed oblivious to the attention, though a least part of that was due to only barely using his magic to see. He was trying to strike a balance, and had taken to reserving his full vision for when he really needed it. The rest of the time he only used it to guide him, and show him what was near.

"Mmm, but you seem far too sober. Let's put something strong in you," Fin grinned.

From:

kersen

The grin was infectious, and Kersen found himself smiling along with him as they went to the bar.

His favorite employee, Tabitha, was tending bar tonight and she smiled as she came over to them. "What can I get you two strangers?" she teased.

"He thinks I need something strong," Kersen said.

From:

prince_of_nymphs

"Let's do shots," Fin said cheerfully. "Two straight shots of vodka and a blowjob each, I think. Have you ever done a blowjob before, Kersen? The alcoholic sort, I mean," he added with a wink. "It's a hands free affair."

From:

kersen

Kersen nodded at Tabitha, and then looked at Fin and arched an eyebrow. "I take it you have a very high alcohol tolerance?"

From:

prince_of_nymphs

"Yes- But I may have already reached it," he admitted with a bright laugh. "It's fine though. These are my last drinks tonight, I swear it."

From:

kersen

Kersen chuckled, as Tabitha poured out a row of shots of vodka in front of them. "You may want to give me one of yours so I catch up."

From:

prince_of_nymphs

Shrugging, Fin slid one of the vodka shots towards Kersen, knocking back the other himself.

"Look, no hands," he said, putting down the now empty shot glass, and folding his hands neatly behind his back as he bent over and picked up the remaining shot with his mouth alone. Once he had his lips wrapped around it, the fae stood up straight and tipped his head back.

He managed not to spill a drop, and looked terribly pleased as he gingerly placed it back on the bar.

Only then did his hands fall to his sides again.

"Go on, your turn," he grinned.

From:

kersen

As Fin was finishing, Tabitha finished the two blow jobs and put them in front of them. Kersen realized that he now had three vodka shots in front of him now. He cracked his knuckles and knocked back one, then one more.

"Okay then," he said, and folded his hands behind his neck, and wrapped his lips around the blow job shot glass, managing to tip his head back and shoot it without spilling, though when he dropped the glass he had to lick his lips.

From:

prince_of_nymphs

Fin did the same same, taking a moment to enjoy the way the alcohol buzzed through him.

"We should just do this all night," he laughed, gesturing at the empty glasses. "See who falls over first."

From:

kersen

"I still have one more," Kersen pointed out, and picked up the shot glass. "I don't know, Fin, I feel like passing out takes the fun out of drinking." He knocked back that one.
