ariadne, friar tuck, will scarlet

WHO: Friar Tuck, Ariadne
WHEN: Wednesday evening
WHERE: ...restaurant and then ?!?!?!
WHAT: Saving a date
WARNINGS: Hopefully kissies and maybe smutties?

Upon hearing that Ariadne had been abandoned by her loser of a date, Tuck had wanted to offer to show up and try to salvage what was left of her evening. She could rant to him and he would try to make her night not a disaster. Of course then she went and invited him and offered him dumplings!

What a delight!

He pulled on what he hoped was a nice shirt and was out the door before he could think twice about it, but not without a goodbye snuggle from Flora. When he walked into the restaurant, he found Ariadne easily. "Hey, you," he said, offering her a hug if she wanted it.

She smiled in thanks at his compliment, in smug thanks, because the oh boy was a whole another kind of compliment. "You haven't, huh? We'll, I'll think about them," she said, stroking her fingers up the inside of his forearm to the crook in his arm, then very lightly dragging her fingernails back down to his wrist and over his palm. Scars didn't faze her, signs of pain were signs of survival, and survival was something to be honoured, after all.

	Tuck was entirely distracted from the food now, and he looked up, gazing at her eyes. They were so beautiful, he could lose himself in them. "Should we-get this wrapped up? Have you had enough to eat?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ariadne grinned and speared the last momo, popping it into her mouth, then held up one wait finger and finished the last of her wine. There was quite a bit left in the glass, but she was Dionysus' wife, what was the point of that if she couldn't neatly skull a glass of wine? "Now I'm ready. Shall we split this down the middle? Or I can get the wine, since I had most of it."

	"Middle is just fine with me!" Tuck said happily. He really didn't mind at all. He was just impressed by the skill with which she finished the wine! He rose and extended a hand to her to help her up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ariadne wasn't unsteady - it would take more than a bottle shared over dinner to do that to her - but she took the hand all the same. She was glad he hadn't come to rescue her from some fancier place where the bill would have stung, she was glad she'd picked this place, and generally her tastes ran to cheap and cheerful. And spicy.

Her phone buzzed in her bag as Tuck was paying and she pulled it out, biting her lip fondly at the series of images Dionysus was sending her. I'm about to have dessert too she sent back, with a series of eggplants and tongues before slipping the phone back into her bag.

"All good?" she smiled, looking up at Tuck again as he finished paying.

"All good," he said, sliding his wallet back into his pocket and then reaching for her hand again. Wandering through the night towards his parsonage, hand in hand with a beautiful woman was such a nice feeling.

"I love nighttime," he said randomly as they walked. "I mean...and not just because it makes it far easier to hide from soldiers who are hunting you down! It always feels more intimate."

"I do love the sun," Ariadne said, tipping her head back to look up at the sky, dark and a little cloudy, the lower clouds glowing with the light of the city. "But I'm a big fan of intimacy, and hiding from soldiers - do I need to keep an eye out, for soldiers?" The question was only mostly a joke. She was pretty certain if there'd been any danger, Tuck wasn't the type to drag her into it.

	"No, the big bad wolf's been neutered," Tuck mused. "Thank God. Have you been to my church before?" he asked, as they rounded the corner and headed towards it. "Do you want a tour of that too, or just the parsonage?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	findyourwayout 2021-08-19 01:26 pm UTC (link)
	"Hmmm," Ariadne said, pausing at the path and hooking her finger into Tuck's belt loop to turn his body toward her. "Maybe a tour of the church... in the morning?" she suggested, tugging his hips closer to her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tuck let out a deep sort of purr, as she pulled him close. "Ah, the perfect plan," he said, grinning. "You are so beautiful. May I kiss you?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	findyourwayout 2021-08-19 01:36 pm UTC (link)
	She took a moment before answering, watching his face in the warm glow of the streetlights and raising a hand to touch him, and the shadows his smile made in his cheeks. Gods, she loved a face that was allowed to show its laugh lines. "You may," she said, her eyes moving to his lips, her other hand moving to his hip, and she let him lean in and kiss her.

	Tuck had been wanting to kiss Ariadne since she said the word 'Stonewall'. And it turned out the reality of it was even better than the fantasy. Her lips were soft against his, and he gathered her into his arms, arousal shooting through him to have her so close. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

A soft sound of approval slipped out of her mouth as he pulled her closer, and Ariadne opened her mouth a little more, exploring the shape of his lips to begin with, then moving a little deeper and exploring the rest of his mouth as well. Oh, and his tongue. "Mmmm, thank you for coming to my rescue tonight," she murmured against him, sliding her hands around his back.

	They hadn't even made it inside yet! "I think we rescued each other," he said against her lips. Then he heard a bark from inside the parsonage and he laughed and pulled back. "Ah, that's Flora! She's rumbled us!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Oh, Ariadne was having some more of that later, she thought as he pulled back. Yes indeed. But for now, there was an enthusiastic little cockapoo to meet, and once they were inside the Parsonage she crouched down to say a proper hello to Flora. She liked dogs, but pets were not an option in her little flat and... a different kind of 'not an option' at Dionysus'. She'd only just managed to rehome all the goats. "Hello gorgeous," she said, giving Flora a scratch. "Aren't you a delight?"

	Flora was so excited for attention from a new person, and she wiggled around, dancing on her hind legs. "She's our darling," Tuck said, bending over to pet Flora as well. "Such a lovely, wee dog. She had a hard time, so we just want to make the rest of her life as wonderful as possible." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	findyourwayout 2021-08-20 02:42 am UTC (link)
	"I understand how that goes," Ariadne said, stroking Flora's side and smiling up at Tuck. "The fight to make the world a bit easier, one act, one dog, one person at a time right?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tuck watched Ariadne as she said such beautiful things. "Right. Dear God, I want you," he breathed, though he didn't want to disrupt her time with dear Flora, who was revelling in the attention. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

His profession made her laugh lightly, and she reached out with one hand and ran it up the inside of his leg, spurred on by being wanted and keen on making him revel in her attention as much as Flora was. Or - more, most definitely more. "Do we have to wait till she's fallen asleep?" she asked, brushing her hand over Tuck's fly with a teasing wink. "Can you wait?"

	"We don't have to- hnnfg. I'd rather not," he chuckled. Her hand was deliciously distracting and he wanted it other places. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ariadne considered unbuckling his pants there in the hallway, but Flora seemed excited enough that she might try to join in, and while that would be very funny... Ariadne pulled herself to her feet again instead, and slid her arms around his neck. "Let's not wait then," she said, fingers in the short hair at the back of his neck. "If she's going to be alright without us."

Tuck nodded and he leaned in to kiss her again, slowly deepening it. When he pulled away, he said, "this is the lounge room," and he laughed. He led the way through to the guest room, which was half nursery and half still set up for guests, and he showed her in. "Oh god, I didn't offer you a drink!" he said suddenly, loudly, and quite Britishly. "Do you want some tea?!"

He was so cute! And she liked the way he kissed - immortals all had their distinctive styles, practised to perfection over all their long years, which occasionally made them absolutely incompatible - she'd made out with Priapus once, who'd been no stranger to kissing but oh dear god, it was awful. This definitely wasn't the case with Tuck.

"Is that your nickname, tea?" Ariadne grinned at him. "In which case, yes," she said, leaning forward to kiss his neck. "Yes, I want some tea."

	Right, well, enough fussing then! "It is now," he grinned, pulling her close again, his hands on her hips. He sort of aimed them towards the bed and they walked there slowly, making out the entire way. Once he reached it, he sat and pulled her into his lap. Once there, he kissed th corner of her mouth and trailled kisses across her jaw to her neck. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ariadne made a pleasant little hum as he kissed her neck, rolling her hips slowly against his body, exploring the feel of him between her thighs. One of her hands curled around his head, guiding him to a sweet spot on her neck and making an appreciative little squeak when he found it. "Oh yes," she whispered, pressing her chest toward him as she arched her neck back. "Yes, good choices have been made tonight, Tuck. Mmmm."
