[ the almost instant switch from desperation to anger is almost funny. of course, he'd do the same thing, in david's position. ]
Wanted to see what you'd do.
[ 'get mad' was the most likely option. begging doesn't seem like something david would do. he got mad enough the last time evan tried to get that out of him, so he's not going to try again now. but that doesn't mean the idea isn't still there. ]
If I fucked off, you think you'd be able to finish anyway?
[ there's a little edge of amusement to that question, at least. but he's not planning on doing it. ]
[ god he's annoying sometimes. david rolls his eyes, annoyed and impatient to get on with it, however that shakes out. ]
Course.
[ it's not what he wants, but it wouldn't be difficult. getting it up and getting off are two things david has never struggled with, but it'd be a deeply unsatisfying orgasm, especially after the intensity of all this. ]
[ evan raises an eyebrow at david - briefly, just for a second, as if the simple answer is enough to make him question if he should continue, if it's going to be that easy.
there's a part of him that wonders how long he can get david to wait without getting a murder attempt. maybe another time.
evan shifts his grip, gets a better hold on david's leg just below the knee and moves the other hand down to get a grip at david's hip, and as requested, he gets on with it. but it's not as fast as before - not as hard, but just as deep. making sure there's nothing else to focus on except the deliberate feeling of it. it takes more focus than before but having stopped helps with that. at least, for the moment. ]
[ david hums once evan starts to move again after what feels like forever, a low, pleased note. it doesn't take long to get him moaning again, maybe not as loud or desperate as before, but that should be expected really. it's gonna take a minute for him to get back where he was. ]
[ part of him wants to shove evan away and just leave after that little interlude, but once he's moving again it reminds david pretty handily why he comes here, why he puts up with these moments where evan pushes his buttons. even now, there's still a part of him that really fucking resents how good it feels. how it sends sparks up his spine when evan sinks into him, when he fucks him just right and for a split second david almost forgets how annoyed he just was. ]
[ he reaches for evan's neck, intending to pull him in for a kiss. maybe not quite as violent a kiss as might be expected, but it's still aggressive, insistent. ]
[ there have been times when he wonders if just fucking isn't the only path for him to take - ideas that never had a chance to take root before have their opportunity here. but a lot of them make him think they're things certain other people would do, and he'll be damned before he lets that association sink in.
still, david's quick return, moving from anger back into hunger with barely a wasted second, makes him think. no point in acting on anything now, though. not when he's already pushed.
the kiss is almost a surprise, and there's a little reticence to it at first before the aggression follows to match - almost surpass - david's. he tightens his grip, manages to keep his pace steady rather than giving in to the urge to just go, keeps it up until he can feel david lose himself before being willing to lose himself to the same thing. ]
[ it doesn't take long for david to get back to that precipice, grasping harshly at evan again, moaning against his lips. david murmurs something that might be a warning against him, but it comes out more like a wordless snarl than anything. ]
[ (honestly part of him might be forcing it just a little, trying to come just out of spite in case evan decides to be funny again.) ]
[ david wonders if it's stopping and starting like that or everything leading up to it that makes it hit so hard when he finally does come, something about it that hits like a truck and leaves him a trembling wreck when it passes. usually he's aware enough of himself to be annoyed by some of the sounds that evan manages to eke out of him, but this time there's nothing except the snapping of that tension, the warmth and relief of it as he comes down the other side. ]
[ there's no pause when david comes - evan doesn't stop, fucks him through it until he gets off, too. focus and control only keep him from getting too rough about it. he's not all that interested in blueballing himself, even for a little while.
that doesn't mean he isn't paying attention to david, though. he hears the noises, feels the way he goes tense and then drops, the way he shudders and trembles in the aftermath as the high crashes into release and exhaustion. as ever, it's more than a little satisfying to know he can get this out of someone who regularly makes his life a living hell.
when he does come evan doesn't make much of a noise but david'll feel the faint shiver that runs through him, the way his grip tightens although it's already tight enough to bruise. he stays still until he can see again, and only then does he start to let go, although he doesn't make any distance or really back off more than just pulling his head back a little. the marks on david's neck are just dark enough to see in the dim light, even if they aren't bruises yet. he can feel the places where nails scraped at his skin even if they couldn't break it.
the hand on david's hip moves up to his neck to run a thumb over the marks there. he doesn't think much about it. just does it. ]
[ david holds tightly onto evan until he's finished, ignoring the way that that's a sensation he's starting to enjoy because there are just some things he's not ever going to be mentally ready to deal with. ]
[ instead he just tries to sink into that warmth a little, lets his grip go lax when evan's on him relaxes, marvels a little inwardly at how those aftershocks haven't quite stopped yet. he probably would've come here with a plan of some sort about whatvto do after if david had known it would be anything like this when he came down to the workshop, but considering he didn't think evan would be even interested in fucking, it makes the whole thing a few different shades of overwhelming. he can tackle that once he's come down fully though, because if he tried to move right now david's pretty sure he'd just fall on his face. ]
[ he tilts his head when he feels evan's hand at his neck, giving him the space to look and touch as much as he wants. david's way too wiped to think about it, doesn't have the mental capacity yet to think about anything except how fucking exhausted he is. lets his eyes fall closed with a tired, if somewhat satisfied sigh while evan does whatever. ]
[ he doesn't take too much advantage of the opportunity - he feels out the marks, the slowing pulse, the edges of his shoulders and collarbones. there's only so much that can be done like this, but it's not a thought he dwells on. david's not arguing. he's barely even moving.
eventually he does back off, letting go with a little more care than on past meetings so that david doesn't immediately pitch off the workbench and onto the floor. funny as that might be, it'd lead to the sort of argument he's not in the mood for right now. when he's fairly certain david's stable he pulls his waders back up, and only then does he glance around for his mask, which david set aside, out of range of being knocked over and upright.
he doesn't grab it. not right away. right now, he doesn't have to. ]
[ when evan starts to back off, david puts a hand down on the table to lean back on, rubs his face with his other hand. the more he starts to come back to himself, the more he feels a little off-kilter in a way he doesn't know how to process, a kind of uncertainty he can't find the source of right now. ]
[ maybe it's just the fatigue. a busy day on top of something that was way more intense than almost any other time before? makes sense that'd leave a guy feeling a bit weird, right? ]
Gonna have to give me a little bit. Then I'll get out of your hair.
[ he says it with a tired laugh in his voice, a little forced but masking this way is easy for him, he doesn't expect evan to notice. brushing everything off and acting like it's all fine and normal is something he's been doing since he was a kid, after all. and if it misses the mark somehow then the evidence suggests evan isn't about to comment on it anyway. he never has before. ]
[ evan watches david when he speaks, more carefully than he might at another time. the breathless little laugh in the words isn't something he recognizes. he could guess at why it's there. have his suspicions. but in the end, he doesn't mention it, because whatever's going on in david's head isn't evan's business.
well. as long as it's not along the lines of fucking up his traps and getting in the way of a kill. ]
What hair?
[ he knows it's just a turn of phrase, but the almost-a-joke gets out anyway. that's when he picks up his mask, adjusts the wires and straps a little as if they were ever out of place - as if they can ever be in place, even slightly comfortable - before pulling it on. he gives david space to recover or clean up, whatever he feels the need to do, but doesn't fully reoccupy himself just yet.
too bad there wasn't any hard liquor to steal. he could use a shot right now. david probably could, too. ]
[ god he really could do with a shot of something hard right now. would even be relieved to look in his pockets and find a crumpled up cigarette. instead he drags a hand through his hair with a soft, slightly amused at evan's almost joke, (and grimaces and wipes his hand on his chest when it comes away wet with sweat,) and tries to pull himself together enough to at least get up and put his pants back on. ]
Guess I'm not goin' anywhere then.
[ it's a joke in return. halfway mumbled as he almost gingerly slips off the table, testing his weight on a leg first before he stands and picks up his underwear from the floor so he can't put them on. ]
[ evan steps back a little further as david finally gets off the table. carefully, he notes. he wonders if one of these days he's going to make that too difficult to manage. it'd take a lot more than what they normally do, probably, so it's not likely.
not impossible, though.
as david pulls himself together evan heads back to his work. the broken trap only takes one more pull to finally come apart, the metal snapping mostly due to rust buildup. funny how a place with no time can somehow rust everything around him anyway.
after a second, he pauses and glances back. ]
Doin' that hit you harder than normal, I take it.
[ 'that' being the stopping out of nowhere. he's not going to comment on whatever might be going on in david's head, whatever ideas he might have, but it took david longer than normal to come down from the high. not too much. just enough for someone watching for it to tell. ]
[ he doesn't really want to give credit to that, but it'd be a lie if he said it had no effect and for some reason david is generally pretty honest with evan. as honest as he is with himself anyway. ]
[ david picks up his jeans while he speaks, but he doesn't put them back on straight away. holds them in his hands and leans against the table, a little distracted. brows pinched in thought for a passing moment. ]
Think it was a few things.
[ which he has no intention to elaborate on because he'd have to dig around in the muck of his thoughts and feelings surrounding all this to put that into words and neither of them wants that. ]
[ a few things. well, he can guess at those, but he's not going to ask. david gave him a confirmation without getting visibly angry about it, so that's about as far as evan's going to take it for now. ]
Maybe next time you can see how much it can do.
[ 'next time'. because at this point, evan's pretty sure there will be a next time. There's been several already. if david's regretting this, it's not enough to keep his distance.
evan pulls apart the remains of the trap, tosses a few parts in the scrap box, and eyes the rust on the remaining pieces. all the while he's keeping an ear out for whatever david does next - not that he thinks it'll be anything stupid after that. ]
Maybe next time I stop letting you get away with so much.
[ he says it with a tip of his head toward his ruined shirt where it landed on the workbench. no heat to it, david simply doesn't have the energy to be mad without being actively provoked right now, but they both know he lets evan do shit in the heat of the moment that he wouldn't otherwise. the mess of a neck he comes away with every time is testament to that. ]
[ after a moment's thought, david slings his jeans over his shoulder and grabs the shirt, using it to do a quick wipe up of his front with a snort and a shake of his head. at least it's still good for something. ]
[ evan snorts outright at that - almost a laugh, but not quite. ]
Yeah, right.
[ it isn't meant to be particularly insulting, though part of him realizes afterward that david might take it that way. but that's on him. he's the one who's let evan maul him, metaphorically speaking, and even tried to do so in turn. the torn shirt might be a first but probably won't be a last.
he glances back in time to see david barely even dressed. but that's on him. if he wants to wait until he can put (most of) the clothes back on, or walk out mostly naked, that's up to him. ]
[ luckily david doesn't take it as an insult, even if he doesn't particularly like the idea that evan knows him well enough to call bullshit. he might intervene if he tries to rip his clothes off him again though. maybe. ]
[ right now he's thinking about getting dressed and getting out of here which seems like a really daunting fucking task. the idea of getting past all evan's traps seems borderline impossible and honestly makes him feel a little more tired than he already is. ]
[ he looks at evan and then around the room. ]
I'm, uh. Just gonna sit down for a bit.
[ as he moves to sit on the floor by a wall with a tired sigh. just ten minutes or so to recoup his energy. ]
[ he was expecting david to leave on his own time, but not quite this much of his own time. evan turns to look at him again in a little confusion and a little concern - and a pile of annoyance, because this is david in his space now, without them fucking.
but he's tolerant enough of david now to just watch him settle down, because partly naked and exhausted and barely able to stand doesn't make him much of a threat. it's not a good sign for evan, that he'll put up with this. but he's done it before with others. will keep doing it for a while.
he doesn't say anything, instead turning back to his work and listening for the moment david decides to stand - or, and he's willing to bet on this, falls asleep. ]
[ it's a bet he'd win, because within a few minutes david does indeed drift off. to his credit, he does try to resist it, because he already feels like he's overstayed his welcome, but he's just so fucking worn out. every time they fuck he feels like he comes away from it more exhausted than the time before, and there's really an upper limit to how much of that he can just walk away from like it's no big deal. ]
[ it's maybe telling that he feels able to just sit down and sleep here instead of being on high alert the entire time, but luckily for david that's not something he can consider whilst zonked out on the floor, proppee up against the wall and curled a little into himself like he's aware enough to try and minimise how much space he takes up. it's just the same dreamless sleep he's always had since coming to the fog. ]
[ whether he should leave david be, kick him out, or just kill him is up for debate.
he watches david for a minute, once he realizes he's fallen asleep. it's ... frustrating, to know he's willing to put up with it; ages ago no survivor who got in here and fell asleep would wake up and live to tell about it. not so long ago anybody who tried getting in at all would be in for a world of pain.
they're not afraid of him, out here. and that's an insult.
in the end, he leaves him alone, frustrated but not enough to take action. and when the entity calls him to a trial, he leaves him alone in there, because it's not as if it'd be the first time david's had run of the place. ]
[ when david does eventually wake up, it's with a small panic initially, unsure of where he is, eyes darting around for danger as he braces himself for some kind of attack that never comes. it takes a few moments for the haze to clear and for him to realise, with no small amount of embarrassment, that he fell asleep in evan's workshop. and evan... left him there? ]
[ it seems odd to him, that the ornery bastard didn't kick him awake. or kill him for the disrespect. odder still that he left him here alone. must've had a trial, david reasons (and ignores the churning discomfort that rises with the realisation that he was just here snoozing while evan's out there killing his friends,) but even so it feels strange that evan let him be instead of shoving david out the door on his way. ]
[ there is, as always, the temptation to snoop, to steal, but david resists it. there's a world of difference in his mind to stealing from someone who allows you into their space versus breaking in to do it, and evan's been decent to him lately, so he's not about to break that tiny bit of trust. or maybe it's just resignation on evan's part. david doesn't know. ]
[ he does, however, have a look at that jar once he has his jeans on and wishes immediately that he hadn't. it's going to drive him insane wondering if bear grease is exactly what it sounds like and hoping it isn't. ]
[ he grabs his bag, shirt forgotten wherever he dropped it before, and tries to think of how he's gonna explain the state of himself when he gets back. as a show of thanks, he also resets any traps his closes on his way out of the mine, which is harder than evan makes it look, but he only comes away with a few bloody fingers so david will call that a success. ]
