[Once those buttons are undone, Muldoon helps untangle his arms and get it out of the way. Where Casper is sculpted, Muldoon is more lean, his chest hidden by dark hair, with an assortment of scars scattered across his skin. He's much more focused on Casper, though. Hands running up and down the man before pulling himself close, so that as much skin touches skin as he can get while they kiss.
Once again he rolls his hips, nipping at Casper's ear and jaw before trailing kisses down his torso. All of this has been hidden from him and he intends to explore thoroughly. With the way he goes about it, Casper would be forgiven for thinking he's committing it all, every dip and rise, to memory.]
Goodness. [It's a breathless sort of noise as Muldoon starts exploring his body like he wants to make a map of it. No inch goes unkissed, and Casper is already making helpless, needy little whines as the warden settles in to his newfound duty.
Muldoon's out of kissing range, and so Casper's hands move restlessly. Across his shoulders, over his back, along his arms. Wanting to touch everywhere at once.]
[It's really a terrible tease the way he progresses down Casper's torso, all the way to the button on his trousers, only to skirt off to one side instead. His watch on one wrist and bracelets on the other are the only break from skin firmly feeling out skin.
He takes his time, no matter how much his companion shows his desire, vocally or otherwise. Eventually he does move back up to kiss Casper's lips, his hands running down the man's body and then thighs as he does so.
Finally he pauses to look at Casper, unable to fully hide his smile.]
Mean. You're mean. [But he's laughing and kissing Muldoon as he says it, trying to press up against him as much as possible. The kisses are nice, the kisses are wonderful, but full body contact is even better.
The hands on his thighs only encourage him to try and wrap a leg over Muldoon's hip.]
Yes. [He finally answers, between kisses.] Yes I am. Even if you're torturing me.
[He can't help himself. Making Casper laugh and whine in equal measure is too enjoyable. He even pushes himself up as if to start to get up, though it's a lot harder with a leg wrapped around him. Casper is right, he is mean, but they're both loving it.]
No! Get back here. [He presses his heel a little harder against him to get him to stay, draping his arms over Muldoon's shoulders and nipping playfully at his chin to punctuate his point.]
Mm, why did we wait so long for this? We've missed so many opportunities to kiss each other, what a shame.
[The warden drops with a little 'oof' when Casper nudges him back down. It does get a chuckle out of him though, before he goes back to kissing Casper's jaw. He almost misses Casper's question.]
Mmm, how much time do you give to your personal life? [He points out. Both of them put work first. Casper is definitely as bad as him, if not worse (somehow).]
Oops. Too true. [A fair point, really. Though his tone is distracted. Those kisses to his jaw are very nice, and he offers up his neck. Feeling a bit like some sort of prey animal but not entirely minding it.]
Well. You're going to start hunting me down, right? If I work too long. Or laying traps.
[Taking the silent direction, the warden moves down Casper's neck, adding the occasional nip when he mentions hunting. Although it's quickly followed by him pulling back just enough to ensure Casper is being honest.]
You'd genuinely like that, wouldn't you?
[He'd assumed Casper was just joking before, but now...?]
Honestly? [The question has him looking a little sheepish. A little shy, but -- he nods. He feels like he's blushing bright red, with how warm his face and the back of his neck are.]
There's something -- thrilling about the idea, I'll admit. Especially if you're the one doing the hunting.
[It won't help that Muldoon has Casper squarely under that intense gaze of his. Nor does he let up once that confession has been shared. If anything it only makes the warden more curious.]
And do you enjoy the idea more because you're sure I'll catch you?
[God, his eyes are so blue, and Casper feels almost pinned under the weight of that gaze. His tongue moves to wet his lips as he gives another small nod of affirmation.]
That's exactly it. You are very good at what you do. And the idea of being the subject of your focus is more than a little thrilling. I was tempted to be late tonight, just to see what you'd do.
That wouldn't be the problem. [Then he tips his head in a half-shrug.] Not everyone is comfortable with getting surprised, or having someone they've only been on one date with invade their space.
I am very okay with you invading my space. [Which he underlines by wrapping his arms around Muldoon's neck again, pulling him in for another kiss and ending it with a soft, teasing nip to his lower lip.]
Just don't sneak up on me while I'm holding something fragile, and we'll be fine.
I do like to keep active. When I'm stressed, I become a bit of a gym rat. And getting a quick workout in my office while something is running or coding or whatever is a good way to pass the time.
Though I could think of some more enticing options for cardio than my usual 5am jog. [Which is said which an arched eyebrow, while trailing his fingers lightly over Muldoon's arm.]
Stop! [He throws an arm over his eyes to try and hide a laugh, unsuccessfully.] Stop, I'm trying to be flirtatious and coy. Maybe I've aged a little past that.
[Muldoon pulls the arm down away from Casper's eyes, trying to reassure him despite both of them still smiling.]
I don't need you to be coy. And you can be flirtatious with little more than a look. I won't hold it against you if you're rusty, though. God knows I am.
It's not an offer, really. It's just the way things are. [He tilts his head, giving Casper a look of feigned seriousness.] You'll have to use this power for good.
I promise not to use it for anything too nefarious. I might try to get out of trouble with it, I'm giving you fair warning.
[His smile is soft and fond, in contrast to Muldoon's faux-serious expression. He reaches up to cup his jaw, stroking his thumb over the warden's lower lip.] This is so nice. I could do this for ages. As long as you let me.
Mm, well fair warning, you might not want to get out of trouble with me. [Casper gets a demonstrative deep kiss, teeth pulling gently at the scientist's lower lip as he pulls back again.
As for talk of doing this for an extended period... Muldoon raises an eyebrow.]
I couldn't. If you stay here, like this, for too long, I won't be able to stay so well behaved. I'll get carried away.
