Who: Kiki & Ed
What: Processing -- in their own way
Where: #1107
When: The evening of the day after the Fables Night
Warnings: Vices of all sorts: drinking, smoking, swearing, innuendo.

With Quincey in one arm, a cigarette in her other hand, Kiki stomped out of the apartment and down the hall toward Ed's. She didn't care if she scared or startled Peter and Lena as she slammed the door; she was feeling jumpy and restless and angry -- and someone had to pay. Vlad was out of the question: despite his reassurances, she wasn't entirely convinced he wouldn't try to maul her again, either out of blood lust (ew) or desire (hm). So it had to be Ed, who's only sin had been showing her a good time earlier in the week.

At his door, she kicked it delicately with her Zanotti pumps before pounding at it with the heel of her hand, arching her body away from the ash being bounced off her cigarette. "Open the fucking door!" she shouted, unconcerned with the volume of her voice. "Now! Or I'm going to call the super to let me in!" That was an idle threat, she knew, but the drama would be enough to make him answer her, she hoped.

"I didn't accuse him of trying to kill me," Kiki snapped peevishly. "Everyone else said he was fucking trying to kill me. I thought he was just being fucking horny and suddenly forgot how to fucking pick a girl up." She rolled her eyes and huffed as he kissed her, pretending to be annoyed, even though she found his gentle touches to be reassuring.

But she brightened again at the idea of invading Ed's space -- she didn't mind her reign extending to multiple units in the building -- and she shifted in Ed's arms to turn a little, draping her legs over his lap, letting the crook of his arm cradle her as she gazed up at him. "I don't do second bedrooms, baby, so I guess you're going to have move out." Her grin was wide and kittenish. "But if you're nice, maybe I'll let you bring someone home when I'm out."

Ed chuckled at her description... imagining a horny Vlad trying to "pick up" a girl by biting her neck.

"Well, gorgeous, could you blame him if he was horny enough to try extreme pick-up methods? I mean you are very, very tempting..." He ran his lips along her neck, a barest touch of lip to skin meant to tease more than take.

"I better buy myself some bedroom furniture for the 2nd bedroom...unless you think you'll need that space for a dressing room or something." Somehow he suspected that before too long she'd want him moving to a larger place, just so she could crash in comfort. He started to think that maybe if he and Vlad shared hospitality duties it would be easier. Then he gave a low laugh and kissed her temple again, "Kitten..if I'm nice enough maybe you won't make me bring someone home..." he teased gently but with a heated tone that was steeped in playful desire.

Shivering at Ed's teasing touch, Kiki made a soft noise of happiness, tipping her head back to give him better access, and she murmured, almost sleepily: "Of course not, baby, I know I'm quality goods..." Then she turned her head a little so her face was close to his. The hint of want in his voice encouraged her, and she smiled wolfishly.

"You think I'd make a good vampire?" she whispered, her lips nearly brushing against his. "Maybe I should practice on you, baby?"

"I think you'd make a good anything as long as you really wanted to make it happen..." he whispered, not closing the gap between their lips. "Practice away," he added with a predatory grin of his own--surprised by how much her confident teasing thrilled him. Used to having to be the one that always planned the first, next, and last move of a seduction, it was freeing and tantalizing to have her shift the game around. He waited for her to practice. Or not.

Delighted, Kiki shifted closer, pressing her lips lightly against Ed's neck, against the soft flutter of his pulse. His skin was warm and comforting, and for a moment, she almost sighed with contentment. Life was lived for being worshipped, Kiki thought.

Then, before she got too sentimental, she bit experimentally, gentle, but still using her teeth; then she giggled against Ed's skin. "What do you think, baby? Am I dangerous?"

Ed closed his eyes and let his hands fall gently, passively, to rest around her waist. Relaxed into the warm pleasure of her teasing he gave a slight shiver as she giggled. "Katherine, you might be the most dangerous woman I've ever met..." he answered honestly, not bothering to dissemble. The danger she presented might not be exactly the kind she was teasing about, but that didn't make it less real. His last comment was a whisper, "You'll be my undoing, Katherine...you have no idea how dangerous you are."

	His words -- whispered as if he were falling to her -- made her smile hard, and she laughed, throaty, as she slung her arms around his neck, hugging him possessively. "Maybe I'll seduce you and break your heart," she whispered in return, tipping her head back to watch his expression. "Wouldn't that be funny?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ed opened his eyes and gave her a slow, gentle smile. "It would be funny...in a terrible sort of way. But I don't think I have any choice but find out what you plan to do with me. After all--you are impossible to resist."

He bent his head to kiss her throat, gently, where the angry red marks still showed. Then he looked back up at her. "I hope Vlad doesn't have any ideas about stealing you from me. I'd hate to have to ruin my friendship with him before it's even really had a chance to develop," he said--only half teasing.

	The idea of men battling for her was seductively delicious, but Kiki shrugged coldly against Ed, as if she didn't care. "Valuable things should be fought over," and her voice was sulky, hinting at a tantrum should Ed disagree. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Well of course they should...I just need to know who my primary opponent is..." he laughed softly, wrapping her as close to him as he could given that the dog was still occupying most of the space i their laps. "So...did you come here tonight just to break my heart? Or am I allowed to buy you dinner or perhaps take you out for a quick shopping trip before the stores close?" He nuzzled at her neck, enjoying the soft skin and warmth of her body as well as the warmth of her tantalizing confidence and passion.

	"I came to do some damage," Kiki purred, keeping Ed's head close to her, and she kissed his jaw line lazily. "To your heart and your credit card." With a yawn, she stretched out her legs and leaned heavily against Ed. "Quincey wants a few things, too," and she lifted her face to grin up at Ed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

He chuckled as she kissed his jaw. "Fortunately for me my credit card is nearly damage proof. My heart is another story."

Reaching down he rubbed the dog--Quincey's--head. "I'm assuming that this fine lad is Quincey? In which case I'm not sure what Tiffany's has in the way of diamond collars, but we can look..." he said, in a playful tone.

"I should clean up quickly before taking you out--I hardly look presentable enough to be seen with you... You and Quincey are welcome to come sit in the bedroom and talk to me, if you aren't shy. Or you can wait here and help yourself to another drink." He couldn't really stand up until his lap was relinquished so he was in no hurry and just waited for her to respond.

	"Baby, do I seem like the shy type?" Kiki narrowed her eyes at Ed then grinned slyly before slinking off his lap. Quincey followed, dancing at her feet, and Kiki kicked off her heels, beginning a slow stroll toward his bedroom. "You'll behave while I'm in there, won't you?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Lap empty, he stood and followed her. Amused at being the one following behind, since it was still his apartment. Or maybe it wasn't. He was actually chuckling out loud by the time they reached his room. He motioned for her to sit on the bed while he went into the small walk in closet to grab clean clothes. He selected a black silk suit and grey silk shirt, which he laid out on the bed.

"I always behave, kitten. I just don't always behave the way people want me too," he answered as he headed into the bathroom, stripping off his shirt as he went. He left the bathroom door partially open but stood outside the line of sight as he stripped down and began to run the hot water in the shower.

	Stretching out along the bottom of the bed, she watched Ed move around his room, laughing lazily at his response. Once she heard the shower start, she stretched an arm to his nightstand and rummaged around lazily until she found a pack of cigarettes, and she lit one for herself. "So you won't behave the way I want you to?" she asked with mock sadness. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

He stepped into the shower, calling over the running water. "Well, I just said that I don't always behave the way people want me to. You seem to have a knack for getting me to cooperate, so perhaps you can expect more from me than most people are able to expect."

A quick rinse was all he took time for and he stepped out of the shower and dried off on an oversized bath sheet that he then wrapped around his waist. Walking back into the bedroom he held out his hand for the cigarette she was smoking, waiting for a chance to take a drag. "I see you found the cigarettes. Find anything else that interested you?" he asked with a raised eyebrow--not remembering which drawer the cigarettes were in.

	At his response, she smiled smugly, exhaling lazily. "I have high expectations, baby," she purred when he emerged from the bathroom, and she stretched her arm to offer him the cigarette. Rolling onto her stomach, she shrieked with laughter at his question, and she reached for the drawer again. "Porn?" she teased. "Your little black book?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

He took the cigarette and watched as she reached for the drawer where she had found the cigarettes. That drawer was tame enough. He dropped the towel while she searched and slid into clean boxer-briefs before turning his attention to the suit. Talking with the cigarette hanging from his mouth he teased her. "Porn is in the lower drawer. Little black book is in a cigar box in closet. Other...items are in the nightstand on the other side of the bed..." He toweled off his hair and shoulders as he spoke, watching her with a smile while offering back the cigarette.

"I want to take a look at that black book someday," Kiki declared as she slithered to the other side of the bed, giggling as she pulled open the drawer. An unsurprising assortment of items: lighter, condoms, a stray cuff link, and then a small package wrapped in tissue paper. "What do we have here?" she purred, and she pulled the package onto the bed. "You keep gifts there, like candies?" Further comments were silenced as she tore through the paper, shaking out the expensive scarf. "No wonder you're so successful with your conquests," she murmured, and she immediately wrapped herself in the diaphanous material.

Ed laughed as she pulled out the scarf. He couldn't even remember when he bought it and he didn't bother trying to make it seem less calculated than it was. He slid into his slacks as he answered.

"You found out one of the tricks of the trade...a good cad always has generic gifts on hand! However, that does not mean that there aren't far more personal gifts also on the premises..." He grinned at her, an eyebrow raised to invite her curiosity. While he had been out on his Fable-induced binge of debauchery he had managed to make a purchase with her in mind. That little item was tucked away elsewhere.

She made a noise, like the growl of cat, but laughed as she fell onto her stomach on the bed. "You are shameless," she said, and she tugged the scarf off. At the mention of another gift, she sat up, her mouth open in a silent squeal of happiness.

"Where is it?" she begged cheerfully, and she wiggled off his bed, Quincey following. "Come on, you jerk, give me my present!" She pressed herself close to him, insinuating, intimating, almost promising, and she grinned up at him.

He was pulling on his shirt as she approached, so he wrapped silk-sleeve covered arms lightly around her waist.

"What fun would there be in giving it to you out right, when I could watch you look...? It is a lovely little item though, so I'm sure you will want to find it..." He kissed the tip of her nose then and resumed buttoning his shirt as if immune to her nearness--a pretense that took most of his considerable reserve.

She play punched his chest with visible delight then turned, the hunter stalking prey. Immediately diving for his dresser, she pawed idly through the drawers, pausing only to examine one thing or another, making a noise of disapproval or like, before moving on. "Make me a drink, baby, while I keep looking," and she pointed a commanding finger at him as she stalked to his closet.

"One drink coming up," he said seriously and headed out to pour a vodka and tonic. At the back of his throat he felt the tug of bile and venom that reminded him of the past 24 hours. How easy it was to slip back into a lighthearted teasing and spoiling that KiKi represented. But as he listened to her rummaging in his closet he wondered whether they were both playing a losing game. Shaking away those thoughts he carried the drink back to her.

Leaning on the door frame of the closet door he swirled the drink. "Your looking for a blue box by the way...in case you were wondering..." he purred.

	A delighted shriek came from the closet as Kiki found the box just as Ed described it. "I hope you don't fucking expect me to put out just because you bought me a fucking gift," she said with mock hardness, but her smile and the swing of her hips suggested just the opposite.
