"A little," he agrees, and takes the bottle back. "You have to be careful. There's a Clinton policy in place that's meant to... you know, stop you being forced to incriminate yourself but. All people need is some small thing to trigger an investigation and you're out. If people hate you enough they'll grab at anything they can, sometimes people run the plates of cars outside bars. You know."

The wrong kinds of bars. He takes another swig of from the bottle, takes a deep breath.

"And if you're discharged it's not like... being fired from a job. If they don't give you an honourable discharge, which they don't have to, you risk losing all your benefits and having a mark on your permanent record that anyone who wants to employ you can see."

John holds out the bottle, hesitates.

"Anyway. I know it's -- stupid, there's no... well, no reason to be careful here we know about."

It's just... weird, as much as he's constantly reassured other people he can't seem to break the habits himself.

He's not especially frustrated, John is mostly still on the edges of being tense and uncomfortable. Talking about this is uncharted territory for him, and he's only managing it through the slowly descending fog of alcohol.

Still.

Once Ianto stalks talking about groping in the hallway and honey John rolls his eyes a little, winces.

"I was exaggerating a little for the audience," he says, "but I just --"

He trails off, takes a slow breath. He just wanted to do something wild to prove he wasn't afraid to touch Ianto, that he could be something like normal.

"Anyway, it's not you."

That's the key point. His eyes dart away uncomfortably again to some vague point that isn't looking at Ianto.

Not a lot of people are. What's that supposed to mean? Hadn't he been sleeping with his boss? Wasn't Kirk flirting with him? It doesn't add up to a person nobody is interested in. He takes the bottle off Ianto, re-caps it and sets it aside again.

"Of course," he assures him, and reaches to cup his face. "Ianto, I... don't know why I wouldn't be, I..."

He takes a deep breath, lets it out shakily. God, he's such an asshole. He shouldn't have let it drag out this long, just because he's stupid and doesn't know how to -- it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter, because he can still fix this. That's all Ianto needs, something to hold onto. John can give him that. He moves his weight fully onto the bed, eases Ianto into a kiss and drops one hand to brace the small of his back.
impavid: (❖ Because you're mine)

[personal profile] impavid 2018-08-14 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
There's certainly been nothing to suggest otherwise. John is kissing him slowly this time, less of an air of desperation to it. There's no rush, nobody watching -- it's just them after all. His hands move after a moment, fumble for the front of Ianto's fleece and reach to unzip it -- to scrape it aside and try to pull up the layers underneath to get at skin. There's too many layers, though, the right amount from a practical 'it's snowing' perspective but too many when he wants them out of the way.

John pulls back from the kiss so he can concentrate a moment, drops his eyes and gives up on skimming up layers further to work undoing Ianto's belt instead.

"Let me prove it to you," he murmurs, because that's exactly what he plans to try and do.
impavid: (❖ Weak or strong)

"Was the part where I'm undressing you not a clue?"

He feels it should have been a pretty solid clue. Fingers fumble open Ianto's belt and then John is beginning to paw open his jeans too, rubbing the heel of his hand against Ianto through them before trying to shift layers around to get his hand inside them. Ianto is warm and so close, so nice to just run his hands over. John can't help a momentary fantasy of the man writhing under him, of how he'd look spread out. Of how he'd feel.

John surges up into another kiss, this one a little more eager, and begins to coax him more to life with firm, efficient touches.

[personal profile] impavid 2018-08-15 02:42 pm (UTC)(link)
John lets out a huff of amusement as Ianto shoves his face into his neck, one that descends into quiet shakes of laughter as he paws through layers of clothing. There's just something about Ianto, about his gentle fussiness and grouchiness, that is charmingly endearing. John wants to hold onto him and make sure he never feels unwanted again.

"You taste like fish," John teases, and then tightens his arms around Ianto for a moment to make sure he knows he doesn't care before he pushes back off the bed -- drops to his knees and begins more roughly dragging down his jeans. He hits the thermal layer and smiles up at Ianto, hooks his fingers under it and begins working it down to try and find some skin to pay attention to.
impavid: (❖ Is it too much to ask)

[personal profile] impavid 2018-08-15 04:02 pm (UTC)(link)
He laughs again, a less restrained laugh -- a low, rough sort of sound as he tugs Ianto's jeans down further and peels down his thermal layer.

"Mere mortals," he repeats, and smiles up at him as he finally exposes some skin. "Pretty sure I'm mortal too, Jones."

For that matter, he's pretty sure they're both very aware of that. He settles himself in between Ianto's legs, begins kissing at patches of exposed thigh and running his hands over them. Nuzzling his face into his hip to see if he can coax him into responding.

"I'll keep you warm," he murmurs, even though Ianto feels like he's already warming up without much help.
impavid: (❖ She'll beat you if she's able)

John smiles and draws back a little as Ianto struggles out of his fleece, skims his own off over his head and lets his black t-shirt follow it -- dumps them on the ground and grabs up the bottle he discarded earlier. He unscrews the cap and takes a swig -- holds it out to Ianto and squeezes his thigh gently with his other hand.

"You okay?"

Since he just started moving, really, didn't stop to ask. He doesn't think Ianto is in any way not into this but he might need a minute or two. Might prefer something else, for that matter, to John between his legs this way. Which is fine, he can adapt.

He lets himself be pulled up, reaches out to carefully take the bottle from Ianto before it spills and sets it to one side. Then John's hands move up to skim under Ianto's tops, to paw at his stomach and around to his back. The feel of his muscles twitching only heightens how much John wants him, wants to make him squirm and he pulls back again after a moment -- presses kisses down Ianto's neck and mouths at his pulse.

"I want you," he murmurs, and he's pretty sure there's no ambiguity in there. "Let me do this."

Or, at least, let him try. He reaches down and teases his fingers along the inside of Ianto's thighs, waiting for permission to go back to what he was doing a moment ago.

Good. Good, because John wouldn't want to turn back now. He slinks back down to his knees again and begins kissing along his thigh, takes him in hand and steels himself against any waves of panic. This is something he's not exactly experienced in, but he wants to try. He wants to taste Ianto and see him squirm, to see him come undone.

His head lowers and John begins mouthing at soft, sensitive skin -- teasing the base of his shaft and trying to let his mind quiet of anything else. To just focus on the taste of it, the feel of Ianto in his hand and the heat of him.
impavid: (❖ Here's the way it is)

[personal profile] impavid 2018-08-15 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
The hands in his hair and on his neck help, they soothe him and help him narrow his focus to what he's doing. He hears the edge to Ianto's tone, though, and there's something gratifying about how he's barely had to put effort in to get him so aroused. John lifts his eyes to study his expression a moment, drinking in the flush on Ianto's cheeks and the dilation of his eyes as he slowly works his shaft with one hand. He's gorgeous like this, and it's difficult to believe Ianto really thinks nobody would want him when everything about him is perfect to John. Thermal layering included.

Then he's squaring himself up, taking Ianto into his mouth and working the base of his shaft with firm, insistent motions.

His fingers flex into Ianto's thigh and John makes a muffled, low sound of pleasure as Ianto's fingers grip him tighter. John is not exactly a porn star, he's sloppy but clearly putting in effort -- keeping his hand working Ianto as he pulls back every so often to catch his breath and wet his lips again. He's not about to try and fancily deep-throat Ianto or something he's pretty sure he can't do, but he can give him enough attention to coax him over the edge. That's all he needs, Ianto to give in and let go. He lets his fingers flex into the tense muscle of Ianto's thigh again, then moves his hand to drag his nails along it slowly.
