I... [ There's a pause as he thinks. Long and hard. It doesn't help that Lad's hands are distracting and he presses his face into his arms for a moment as he lets out a heavy sigh. ]
I can't recall.
[ Something Sylaise had no doubt picked up on which would have spurred her to pester Mythal with this gift. Not that Solas is complaining. ]
Really? [He leans forward so that his face it right in Solas' line if vision, sporting his warm playful grin.] You should take better care of yourself. I would bet you would be missed among Mythal's people if you overworked yourself too much and came to harm.
[He pulled back to work on his other shoulder now, then started to move onto his lower back.]
I would be missed if I relieved myself of duty, [ he returns with a sigh though he manages a small smile when Lad's grin pops into view.
But the man is working still. Another groan of pleasure sounds out when Lad's fingers find a particularly bad knot in his shoulder. Slightly painful to have worked out, but well worth the effort. ]
or maybe you could just come visit me, so I can take care of you again.
[He couldn't say what it was about this time in particular that he was... enjoying so much. Talking to him was fun, and seeing Solas' smile had brightened his own. He couldn't remember the last time he felt so carefree, especially in the company of another.]
[ His brow furrow in confusion and he glances over his shoulder at the man. Did he mean that? He doubts Lad would make a habit of requesting repeat visits from all those he spent time with. ]
I am unsure if I would be able to, [ he admits and even he is surprised that he is a little disappointed at the thought. He would have to find the time and likely have to request it from Mythal. Lad was in another's service after all, but if it meant having this more often... ]
[He worked down from Solas' spine until he settled on his hips for a time, then slowly started working back up around his sides.]
You help so many, and then I get to be the one that helps you. I'm usually not fortunate enough to service someone like you, it feels like I'm not even working.
[He didn't quite understand why, but just settled for associating it with Solas being special somehow.]
[ He shivers at Lad's touch and arches his back up lightly into it. He could feel himself becoming more relaxed, far more than he thought he would with the other over him. ]
I help those I can, but so do you. [ Lad had made that more than clear when they first met. ] Though if you enjoy my company...
[ Maybe his requests to return could be indulged by Mythal. It was hard to imagine any other outcome with the other man's hands on him. ]
[Pleased by his reaction, Lad repeats the motions, lingering where Solas had reacted so strongly.]
My efforts are far more humble than yours, I am certain, but thank you. [To think that maybe he could have this man melting beneath his fingertips again, and maybe again and again! It would be something he could look forward to! Oh that would be nice!] I do, and at the very least, while you are here now you could request me at your leisure.
[He laughs and his tone is teasing as he continues.]
Maybe we could even do a little more than a massage. I think you might be overdue for some attention.
[ His eyes flutter shut at the repeated motion and he draws in a sharp breath. No wonder Lad had been assigned to this if this was his approach.
The reminder that Solas is here for far more than a massage causes him to frown lightly and his cheeks to take on a faint pink. It's hard to ignore his own desires when he's beneath Lad and pressed against his bed, but he had been fully prepared to. ]
I did not intend to do even this. [ And yet here he was, fully enjoying the other man's touch. ]
And yet you are enjoying it- desperately need it even. At least in my opinion.
[And he made just the slightest motion to grind his hips against Solas when he pressed down to work out another knot. Just to give him a little tantalizing taste of something he's no doubt starved himself from.]
[ There's no hiding the movement of his own hips in response or the look of pleasure that crosses his face for a brief moment. It is enough of a reminder of what he's been missing for him to play into Lad's game. ]
[He started to repeat the movement, falling into a rhythm.]
You spend all in command of so much, many look to you for guidance, so in sex you like to shed that responsibility and let someone else take control. You probably like to be tied up, and blindfolded, and leave your pleasure in the hands of someone else.
[He worked on Solas' back in time with the movement of his hips, his touches taking on a more sensual feeling.]
But you're also very proud, so to let someone see you vulnerable and give them that control, they need to have earned your trust first.
[ He turns his head, using the sheets to muffle his moans. His hips roll ever so slightly up to meet Lad's and the more the man speaks, the more Solas can feel his resolve leaving him. ]
You've done this before. [ It's almost an accusation the way he says it and most certainly is not a denial of anything Lad has said. The man had hit very close to home in his assumptions. ]
[He laughs at the accusation, it really was cute how easy it was to get him going in spite of his reluctance to indulge his own need. He leaned down, letting his hands trail from Solas' shoulders to his arms, and his next words were but a breathy whisper in his ear, punctuated by a kiss on his neck.]
I may not have earned that trust from you yet, but if you like, I can still take care of you how you like it.
[ He shivers and tilts his head enough that Lad has easy access to both his ear and neck. He could put a stop to this. Send Lad elsewhere and go about his evening as if the man had never been here. And yet...
He sighs softly. ]
I would like that a great deal, [ he admits finally. ]
[Lad took to opportunity to start kissing Solas' neck, nipping occasionally as he made his way back up to his ear.]
Give me just a moment to get ready then.
[And he nipped the top of his ear, trailing his teeth along it until he pulled back. He slipped himself off of Solas, giving the other a few nudges on his him to encourage him to roll onto his back.
He walked back over to the table where his basket sat, undoing the ties on the side of his pants as he walked. Once at the table he simply let them fall to the ground, though he way his loose shirt draped down, it covered anything exciting. All that could be seen with his pants discarded was more of his legs, and a tantalizing view of his hips from the side.
He returned and set the basked on the foot of the bed before crawling back onto Solas. He took a bit more oil in his hands and started tending to Solas' chest much like he had his back, however now was focused far more on encouraging his arousal than working out knots. Again he grinded against Solas' hips in a rhythm, only this time on a far more... sensitive spot.]
[ His brows furrow in confusion as he follows Lad's nudging and rolls onto his back. His eyes don't leave the other man as he watches him move, gaze following Lad's pants as they hit the floor.
There was far too much hidden with how he'd already been teased and he props himself up on his elbows to get a better look at the little being shown. The basket has his curiosity though not enough to get up and check it himself, not with Lad quickly returning to him.
Solas sighs with some relief when Lad's hands return to him and he rests his own loosely on Lad's hips. Was he fine to touch the other man? He has no doubt there's some sort of protocol, but it's not something he's ever had to concern himself with before. For now he'll keep his touch light and his lips parted slightly as he moves his hips upwards into Lad's. ]
[He placed his hand on Solas', guiding it to slip just under his shirt for more access to his legs and his rear of he so desired.]
You can touch me however you like, I am here to make you feel good, if touching me helps then there's no need to hesitate.
[Lad leaned forward, nipping and sucking at the exposed skin on Solas' chest. He moved up to his neck, then pressed a few kisses to his jawline. He spoke with his lips just brushing against the other's cheek.]
[ Of course he noticed. Solas gives him a small smile as he allows his hands to be moved, still keeping his touch light on Lad's waist.
As far as feeling good goes, he's far more interested in what Lad's doing at the moment than what he could be doing himself. His smile grows slightly as Lad's lips move upwards and he exposes his neck and jawline. ]
That depends, would you be away for long? [ Because as much as he wants to know what's in the basket, he is keen to keep the man on top of him. ]
[He giggled and playfully tapped Solas on the nose in mock scolding.]
You say that like I'm done teasing you.
[He leaned up to deliver an affectionate bite to Solas' ear, as he raked his nails down his chest. Testing the waters to see how rough he liked it, if at all. There were some things he could only find out by experimenting after all, but that was part of the fun.]
[ His nose wrinkles as his brows go up. Lad's confidence, whether trained or natural, made it far easier for him to relax. If he is to wait, then he supposes he can find the patience somewhere.
He sucks in a sharp breath as his arches his back, pressing his chest further into Lad's nails. His fingers press into Lad for a moment before he relaxes them with a small nod. ]
You are the experienced. I will defer to your judgment.
[A pleased hum escapes Ladanelan, followed by a throaty chuckle. He generally did not take his own pleasure into much consideration, but Solas' reaction to his motions stirred a little something in him too.
But in accordance with Solas' reaction, Lad's became more aggressive. He worked his nails into Solas' skin with each caress, and the affectionate nips turned into hard playful bites along his neck and chest. Even the grinding came with more force, working to put some of his weight behind it.]
[ His eyelids flutter and his hold on Lad tightens, his fingers pressing firmly into his waist as he holds the man's hips against his. The motion lasts for only a second before Solas becomes mindful of his actions and lets Lad go though not before bucking his hips upwards.
It's not often another is any position to act with any aggression towards him and he finds the idea novel, intoxicating in a way. His breath quickens and he watches as Lad works his way along his body. ]
I am, [ he returns, his hands stroking up along Lad's sides. That was a far better use for his hands and the last thing he wants is to constrain the man. ] If you leave anything, let it be easily hidden.
[ Those were marks he did not want to be questioned about later. ]
[He laughed again as Solas' hips jerk up into him. How rebellious of them!]
I shall be discrete.
[He broke the moment to place a reassuring kiss on Solas' shoulder and reaching a hand up to his cheek, then up to run through his hair. Then he tangled his hand deep Solas' hair and pulled it hard as he bit down into his shoulder.]
Thank you, [ he murmurs, relaxing as Lad's fingers work their way through his hair. Eyes closed, he basks in the feeling.
At least, until he is jarred to attention by the simultaneous pull and bite. The moan that springs to his lips is unbidden and pleased as he lets his head be moved around.
His request comes on the heels of the bite, as the sharpness of it starts to fade, ] Again.
