Ariel moved back up, and raised an eyebrow when he was eye level with Markise again. "You called?" he asked, his voice husky. If he could go by Markise's reaction, Ariel figured he had done a fine job. He rested on his forearms just by Markise's shoulders and under his arms. He sighed softly and moved his fingers lightly against Markise's upper arms.

"Mmhm," Markise hummed. He tilted his chin up and brought his lips to Ariel's for a slow kiss, perfectly happy to explore Ariel's mouth, even after everything. He took his time, letting his hands move lazily over Ariel's skin until he had the energy to move again. Then he pushed lightly against Ariel's chest, pushing him back to return the favor, even slower and more excruciating than the kiss.

Ariel gave a barely audible groan at the first touch and was very glad for the desk by the last. It was so nice to not have to worry about weak knees. His muscles relaxed against the wood and his eyes closed. He couldn't bring himself to say that Markise hadn't needed to, that what he had done had been a thank you, it had just felt too good to say anything against it. One hand moved absently in Markise's hair.

Markise sighed, and moved to lay against Ariel again, tucking his head in the crook of one well-muscled shoulder. He let himself relax completely there with another long sigh, then closed his eyes, his fingers only just able to move against Ariel's stomach. "God, Ariel," he breathed. "You just..." Markise couldn't even think of what he'd begun to say, so he finished with another low sound of satiated pleasure. Ariel got him going so easy.

Ariel sighed softly and moved his arm around Markise. "You, too," he sighed, eyebrows coming together as he tried to figure out why he didn't feel skin. Then his eyes opened just a little and he remembered the coat. He looked at Markise, the small sliver he could see through his mostly closed eyelids. "Do you want me to see how much a tattoo would cost you?" he asked as his mental eye trailed down Markise.

Markise's brows rose slightly, and his eyes opened just a bit. He shifted a bit against Ariel, not willing to put forth the energy to actually look up at him yet, but nodding almost imperceptibly. "Mmhm," he hummed. "I think I know what I want now, I'd just have to like, get a design or something." He considered asking Dare again, but he wasn't sure if Dare was even talking to him at this point.

Ariel nodded, "I guess I'll send him an owl sometime." Not that he cared to correspond with his brother at all, but he had already told Markise that he would do it, and he wasn't going to go back on his word. There wasn't much more to say about that, he knew Maverick would be thorough in giving price estimates for every imaginable instance, so there was no reason to ask size or colors. So Ariel closed his eyes again and sighed.

Markise wrinkled his nose as he thought about it. "I really don't want to be a girl," he said, unable to forget that polyjuice potion had been the only option if he didn't want to wait til mid-February. "You can pick the girl. You're the one who's going to have to fake like you want to be with me," he said. He really didn't like the way that had come out, but there wasn't a much better way to put it. Markise left his eyes open and distracted himself by running his fingers in circles around a sensitive spot on Ariel's chest.

Ariel wrinkled his nose as well, he hadn't thought about that. But instead of the possibility of another fight he tried to think of something else. "You might not want me to pick, you might just end up as someone my brother would like," he said, blinking open his eyes. No, he wouldn't do it, but he couldn't help the amusing image of his brother trying to hit on Markise, so long as he didn't think on it a certain way and only focused on the humor of his brother unknowingly hitting on a guy.

Markise gave a light groan of displeasure. He didn't at all care if Ariel's brother liked him, in fact, he saw the probable humor in it as easily as Ariel had. "You know how to pick girls though, right?" Markise asked, no judgment showing in his voice. "I don't care at all, but I mean, if we're going to mess with your brother anyway, we might as well do it right, right?" It made sense to him, but then, he was still only half able to think.

Ariel wrinkled his nose again, "I don't know that I like the idea of my bro-" He paused as the logistics of the whole idea came to his mind. He shivered at the thought of his brother doing a little more than look at Markise as a girl. "That's just so...wrong," he grumbled to himself, wondering how in the world he would ever get that thought out of his mind. "Maybe I should get a hag and say you gave me cookies or something."

Markise chuckled at that, and slid his arm cross Ariel's chest for a brief hug. He couldn't believe that Ariel would be jealous even if he was a girl. No matter how many times he thought of that it was still weird. "I'll find the girl," he said. "And don't worry about your brother. I'm going as your girlfriend, not some random chick he can pick up." Still weird. "Besides, you said you'd hold my hand, that's why we're doing all this, and would you really hold some hag's hand for cookies?" Markise finally looked up at Ariel then, laughter in his eyes.

Ariel shook his head, though he wasn't entirely convinced that the fact a girl was his girlfriend would keep his brother from at least flirting. He tilted his head down to look at Markise and his own eyes shined at the laughter he could see so easily in Markise's. "My brother's a bit of a creep," he warned, letting his head rest back again.

The statement didn't bother Markise in the least, and his eyes still laughed lightly. "I can deal with creeps," he said. "I've had friends who were creeps." At the very least two of them, but Markise didn't particularly want to think about either of them. He blocked them out and turned his mind back to Ariel. "It doesn't matter anyway. I'm with you, sexy." Markise tilted his head to give Ariel's neck a brief, swirling kiss before settling against him again, continuing the motions of his fingers. "Mmm, maybe I'll use that as a nickname in front of him. Sexy. Adonis. F~ing sex god or something."

"He did tell me to go get a girlfriend, along with a f~ing twelve pack." Ariel had a private laugh at the knowledge that it was thanks to his brother he even had the proper protection that Markise required. Maverick would flip if he knew what they were being used for. "I think it would kill him for you to say something like that," he said, though his voice dripped with approval. He could only imagine the look in his brother's eyes should Markise call Ariel a sex god.
