Yukimura looked sympathetic, though not repentant<br \/>\n     in the least. <\/p>\n<p>&quot;And it isn&#8217;t any better when Hatter gets in a mood and decides on Masaharu<br \/>\n     instead,&quot; Hiroshi added.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Well, not for you, no,&quot; Masaharu allowed. &quot;I don&#8217;t think Akaya<br \/>\n     gets it quite as bad then.&quot; Akaya, despite not being able to meet anyone&#8217;s<br \/>\n     eyes, nodded. &quot;Anyway, the point is, since we&#8217;re all participating anyway,<br \/>\n     why not close up the gaps in the formation?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Marui grinned. &quot;I&#8217;m suddenly picturing this as a new play style.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Jackal closed his eyes. &quot;I didn&#8217;t hear that,&quot; he declared.<\/p>\n<p>Yanagi frowned, thoughtfully. &quot;Niou, do you really have any idea how much<br \/>\n     choreography it takes with more than two people?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Renji!&quot; Sanada protested.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Genichirou,&quot; Yanagi returned, &quot;<em>do<\/em> you have any idea<br \/>\n     what it&#8217;s like when you&#8217;re with Hatter? I never suspected your definition<br \/>\n     of sparring was so broad.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Sanada flushed. Yes, indeed, Masaharu reflected, it didn&#8217;t do to forget who<br \/>\n     The Master was.<\/p>\n<p>Hatter tapped on the door and leaned through. &quot;There you all are. One<br \/>\n     was wondering. Planning anything entertaining?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Masaharu grinned. &quot;Well&#8230;&quot;<\/p>\n<h2>Two<\/h2>\n<p>Belial sank into the water until it was up to hir chin and wriggled hir toes<br \/>\n     happily. &quot;Whose idea was it to stage our little experiment at a hot<br \/>\n     springs?&quot; se asked, leaning hir head back against the edge.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Mine,&quot; Niou supplied waving a dripping hand without opening his<br \/>\n     eyes.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Remind one to thank you, later,&quot; Belial sighed.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>The team filtered back into the room in ones and twos and settled down, remarkably<br \/>\n     spread out for such a relatively small space. Seiichi&#8217;s mouth quirked, and<br \/>\n     when he noticed Marui and Akaya fidgeting nearly in unison he couldn&#8217;t help<br \/>\n     a laugh.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;It really isn&#8217;t as difficult as all that,&quot; he admonished, coming<br \/>\n     to stand in the center of the room. &quot;Belial,&quot; he called, softly.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Yes?&quot; Belial answered behind him.<\/p>\n<p>Seiichi turned, smiling, and lifted a hand to run through Belial&#8217;s bright,<br \/>\n     wild hair. &quot;I think it&#8217;s up to us to start.&quot; He leaned in and kissed<br \/>\n     their demon, coaxing, and Belial swayed against him, opening hir mouth to<br \/>\n     nip at Seiichi&#8217;s tongue. It was an easy, laughing, flirting kiss; a good<br \/>\n     place for them all to start, Seiichi thought.<\/p>\n<p>Belial shivered abruptly, and Seiichi drew back to see Genichirou standing<br \/>\n     behind hir, sliding the robe off hir shoulders. Genichirou&#8217;s own robe was<br \/>\n     already undone, and Belial made a small pleased noise as se leaned back against<br \/>\n     his body.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Watching Sanada-san&#8217;s hands stroking down Hatter&#8217;s arms was making Akaya&#8217;s<br \/>\n     breath shorten. Though not nearly as much as when Yukimura-san stepped back<br \/>\n     from those two and turned toward him, holding out a hand.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Akaya.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>It wasn&#8217;t a command, and that might have been what made Akaya shiver. For Yukimura-san<br \/>\n     to <em>ask<\/em> him&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Someone was standing beside him, and Akaya looked up to see Yanagi-senpai looking<br \/>\n     down with a calm, familiar smile. &quot;It&#8217;s all right,&quot; he said, and<br \/>\n     moved past Akaya to where Hatter was arched back in Sanada-san&#8217;s arms, one<br \/>\n     hand tangled in Sanada-san&#8217;s hair, dragging his head down to Hatter&#8217;s. Yanagi-senpai&#8217;s<br \/>\n     fingers brushing along Sanada-san&#8217;s jaw lifted his head again, and they smiled<br \/>\n     at each other. Akaya blinked to see such a light expression on Sanada-san&#8217;s<br \/>\n     face.<\/p>\n<p>Hatter laughed and twined his arms around Yanagi-senpai&#8217;s neck. Sanada-san<br \/>\n     leaned forward to kiss Yanagi-senpai slow and deep before stepping back.<br \/>\n     They made it look very simple. Akaya looked back at Yukimura-san and swallowed.<br \/>\n     Yukimura-san was waiting for him.<\/p>\n<p>Akaya stood, just a little shakily, and stepped forward. Yukimura-san drew<br \/>\n     him close, folded his arms around Akaya, whispering against his ear, &quot;It&#8217;s<br \/>\n     all right.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Akaya nodded and tried to relax into Yukimura-san&#8217;s fingers rubbing his neck,<br \/>\n     Yukimura-san&#8217;s mouth covering his. The closer Yukimura-san held him, the<br \/>\n     easier it was, and when Akaya finally let himself sag against Yukimura-san&#8217;s<br \/>\n     support he was lowered to the floor.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Trailing his fingers one last time down the curve of Hatter&#8217;s bare spine, Sanada<br \/>\n     stepped back. Masaharu suppressed a sigh of disappointment, because those<br \/>\n     three together made a very, very nice picture. He might not have suppressed<br \/>\n     it quite enough, though, because Sanada spoke without turning.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Niou.&quot; <\/p>\n<p>Masaharu made an inquiring sound, lounging on an elbow, and Sanada turned his<br \/>\n     head.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;What do you like?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Masaharu&#8217;s eyes widened a bit, because there was a glint in Sanada&#8217;s eyes that<br \/>\n     he&#8217;d never seen there before. A light of amusement where usually determination<br \/>\n     ruled alone. Something about that glint suggested Sanada might already know<br \/>\n     at least a few of the answers, and Masaharu grinned as he replied, &quot;Power.&quot;<br \/>\n     He wasn&#8217;t quite crazy enough to answer <em>Danger<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Not yet.<\/p>\n<p>Sanada&#8217;s lips quirked, and when Masaharu accepted the hand he held down, Sanada<br \/>\n     pulled him up fast and hard against his body. Looked like Sanada did, indeed,<br \/>\n     already know about the danger part of the answer. Masaharu bared his teeth,<br \/>\n     wrapping one leg around Sanada&#8217;s hip. This promised to be interesting.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Jackal scooted over to where Hatter was curled in Yanagi&#8217;s arms, nibbling on<br \/>\n     his shoulder. &quot;Care to trade?&quot; he asked, smoothing a hand down<br \/>\n     her shoulder blade.&quot;I think Akaya needs Yanagi.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Hatter raised her head, and they all looked over at Akaya, lying spread out<br \/>\n     and moaning helplessly under Yukimura&#8217;s hands and mouth.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;You may be right,&quot; Yanagi agreed. He pressed a kiss to Hatter&#8217;s<br \/>\n     brow and brushed another across her lips. &quot;Would you mind?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;We wouldn&#8217;t want Akaya to be scared off from participating next time,&quot;<br \/>\n     she purred, stretching.<\/p>\n<p>Yanagi laughed, and crawled the couple feet over to Akaya, sliding a hand under<br \/>\n     his arched back and murmuring to him in a soothing tone. Hatter smiled and<br \/>\n     leaned, bonelessly, against Jackal. He gathered her close and dropped a soft<br \/>\n     kiss on her neck, stroking her hip and back slowly.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;You&#8217;re all so gentle with one,&quot; she sighed.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;I can not be, if you&#8217;d rather,&quot; Jackal offered, curious. &quot;Do<br \/>\n     you like it better rough?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Her eyes were just a little distant, just a little blank, as she looked at<br \/>\n     him. &quot;One doesn&#8217;t know. One never really paid much attention to one&#8217;s<br \/>\n     own pleasure.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Jackal sucked in a sharp breath and held her closer. &quot;And you have to<br \/>\n     ask why we&#8217;re gentle with you?&quot; he asked, softly, against her blood<br \/>\n     colored hair.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Mm.&quot; Hatter pressed against him.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Hiroshi leaned over Marui&#8217;s shoulder. &quot;You&#8217;re starting to drool,&quot;<br \/>\n     he murmured.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Am not,&quot; Marui contradicted, not looking away from Masaharu, who<br \/>\n     had laced one hand with Sanada&#8217;s and was sucking on Sanada&#8217;s fingers. Looking<br \/>\n     him in the eye the whole while, of course. Hiroshi&#8217;s partner did have a talent<br \/>\n     for provocation.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;You like to watch?&quot; he asked.<\/p>\n<p>Marui leaned back against him, grinning. &quot;I like a lot of things.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Hm.&quot; Hiroshi reached down and folded Marui&#8217;s robe aside, closing<br \/>\n     a hand between his legs.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Ah!&quot; Marui arched, legs spreading. &quot;Damn, you move fast!&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;You prefer slower?&quot; Hiroshi inquired, squeezing.<\/p>\n<p>Marui groaned. &quot;Of course not.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Yagyuu laughed. Marui was Marui, whether on the court or in bed.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Masaharu moaned when Sanada&#8217;s fingers pressed into him. It was swallowed by<br \/>\n     Sanada&#8217;s mouth.<\/p>\n<p>He arched against, or maybe it was into, that rough hardness thrusting into<br \/>\n     him bit by rocking bit. Sanada&#8217;s arm around him held him still.<\/p>\n<p>He panted and shivered as Sanada&#8217;s fingers worked him open, and felt Sanada&#8217;s<br \/>\n     lips curve against his neck.<\/p>\n<p>When Sanada&#8217;s fingers slowed, Masaharu growled a little. No fair setting him<br \/>\n     up for something hard and then not following through. Following Sanada&#8217;s<br \/>\n     gaze, though, he had a hard time blaming him, and, in fact, couldn&#8217;t help<br \/>\n     a little smile of proud pleasure.<\/p>\n<p>Hiroshi had Marui down on his knees and elbows, head bent to the floor, while<br \/>\n     Hiroshi&#8217;s tongue flickered over Marui&#8217;s entrance. Masaharu could tell when<br \/>\n     Hiroshi actually thrust in by the breathless way Marui moaned. It probably<br \/>\n     didn&#8217;t hurt that Hiroshi&#8217;s hand was between Marui&#8217;s legs, pumping him slow<br \/>\n     and strong, but Masaharu knew from experience that Hiroshi&#8217;s tongue was enough<br \/>\n     to hold anyone&#8217;s attention all by itself.<\/p>\n<p>Hiroshi also hadn&#8217;t bothered to strip off Marui&#8217;s robe, merely lifted the hem<br \/>\n     over Marui&#8217;s hips. Hiroshi&#8217;s own was hanging open. They made an incredibly<br \/>\n     wanton picture, and Masaharu rubbed his hips against Sanada&#8217;s just watching.<br \/>\n     Sanada&#8217;s fingers curled, inside him, and Masaharu gasped.<\/p>\n<p>At first he thought the wash of tingling heat was just from that, but it kept<br \/>\n     going, and he looked again to see Marui coming in long, hard shudders under<br \/>\n     Hiroshi&#8217;s hands. Sanada&#8217;s hold on him tightened enough to drive his breath<br \/>\n     out, if he&#8217;d had any left.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Jackal caught his breath against Hatter&#8217;s mouth, and she melted against him<br \/>\n     with a long, low sound of pleasure in her throat.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Akaya tensed, where he knelt over Yanagi-senpai&#8217;s folded legs, felt Yanagi-senpai&#8217;s<br \/>\n     hands on his back dig in, felt Yukimura-san&#8217;s fingers inside him twist sharply,<br \/>\n     felt Yukimura-san&#8217;s teeth close on his neck. He buried a trembling moan in<br \/>\n     Yanagi-san&#8217;s shoulder as fire plucked at his nerves.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Hiroshi had never come just from bringing his partner off before, but he was<br \/>\n     very close to it now, as Marui relaxed in his hands.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Wow,&quot; Marui mumbled, pillowing his cheek on his folded arms.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Very,&quot; Masaharu agreed, flexing his body against Sanada&#8217;s. &quot;So<br \/>\n     what are you waiting for, Sanada?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;An invitation,&quot; Sanada answered, showing his teeth.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Masaharu was moderately impressed with how quickly he found himself naked and<br \/>\n     on his knees, with his back pressed against Sanada&#8217;s chest. &quot;Don&#8217;t get<br \/>\n     to be this aggressive very often?&quot; he suggested, slyly.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Depends on what mood everyone&#8217;s in,&quot; Sanada returned, and nibbled<br \/>\n     on Masaharu&#8217;s earlobe.<\/p>\n<p>Good instincts, Masaharu reflected, sagging back against Sanada&#8217;s support.<br \/>\n     Though he couldn&#8217;t help laughing when Hiroshi fished a tube out of his robe<br \/>\n     and tossed it over. His partner always planned ahead.<\/p>\n<p>The feeling of Sanada pushing into him, opening him long and slow left him<br \/>\n     open mouthed and breathless.<\/p>\n<p>He did make a strangled sound when Marui, with a grin, squirmed around in front<br \/>\n     of him and closed his mouth firmly around Masaharu&#8217;s cock.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Hiroshi chuckled. Masaharu was trying to flex forward and Sanada&#8217;s hold wasn&#8217;t<br \/>\n     letting him. Which was not to say Sanada was going slowly, now he had Masaharu<br \/>\n     where he wanted him. His partner was in good hands, Hiroshi decided. Very<br \/>\n     good hands, if the surge of fever heat running through Hiroshi was any indication.<\/p>\n<p>He glanced over at Yukimura and Yanagi, who <em>were<\/em> going slowly with<br \/>\n     Akaya, and probably just as well. He could see from here that Akaya was shaking<br \/>\n     just a little, in Yukimura&#8217;s arms, as Yanagi rocked into him slow and careful.<br \/>\n     Or possibly he was shaking because of the way Yukimura was kissing him. Hiroshi<br \/>\n     suspected that Yukimura had it in him to be an utterly overwhelming lover.<br \/>\n     He looked forward to finding out.<\/p>\n<p>For now, though, he thought the hunger in Jackal&#8217;s eyes was stronger than his<br \/>\n     curiosity.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Jackal raised his brows as Yagyuu edged over to them and wound an arm around<br \/>\n     Hatter.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;You want to go to Yukimura,&quot; Yagyuu noted. &quot;Hatter and I will<br \/>\n     be fine.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Hatter looked him up and down, eyes bright and languid. &quot;Are you quite<br \/>\n     sure of that?&quot; she purred.<\/p>\n<p>Yagyuu smiled at her, his usual small, calm smile, made a bit disconcerting<br \/>\n     by the sharp, ice colored eyes that emerged as he folded his glasses. &quot;Reasonably.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Hatter laughed, twining around him, and Jackal shrugged. Yagyuu was right,<br \/>\n     after all. He slipped up behind Yukimura and stroked a questioning hand down<br \/>\n     his back. Yukimura lifted his head from marking Akaya&#8217;s neck and glanced<br \/>\n     back, smiling welcome.<\/p>\n<p>He made a soft, enticing sound in his throat when Jackal pressed wet, open<br \/>\n     mouthed kisses down his ribs and over his hip. When Jackal slipped around<br \/>\n     him to continue between his legs, though, Yukimura&#8217;s moan was full voiced,<br \/>\n     and Jackal liked that even better.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Hiroshi let Belial bear him down to the floor, cradling hir body with his.<br \/>\n     He&#8217;d been half expecting hir to want to turn the tables some time soon, and<br \/>\n     tipped his head back easily when se nipped at his throat. The strong, slim<br \/>\n     back under his hands curved sensuously as Belial pressed against him, and<br \/>\n     the lines of hir against his palms were one more source of enjoyment.<\/p>\n<p>Se arched over him, caging him under hir body, laughing, and Hiroshi laughed<br \/>\n     with hir. He reached up, sliding his hands over hir chest, ribs, thighs,<br \/>\n     taking in the texture of hir. He had no trouble believing this was the one<br \/>\n     who had seduced whole cities.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Yours,&quot; he murmured, brushing his fingertips over hir lips, and<br \/>\n     Belial leaned down to him, eyes heavy with pleasure.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Genichirou had positioned himself where he could see all of the others, though<br \/>\n     it had gotten a little difficult to concentrate on anything but the flex<br \/>\n     of Niou&#8217;s body against his and the hardness of Niou&#8217;s thighs spread over<br \/>\n     his. Niou&#8217;s wildness teased Genichirou to be harder, rougher than he usually<br \/>\n     was. Genichirou was careful of his strength, unless he truly lost his temper.<br \/>\n     Niou&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Niou wasn&#8217;t careful.<\/p>\n<p>Genichirou made a harsh sound into pale, tangled hair as Niou drove back against<br \/>\n     him, skin sliding against hot skin.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Belial gasped against Yagyuu&#8217;s mouth as his fingers stroked, lightly, between<br \/>\n     hir legs. Seiichi must have been telling hir secrets, se decided. Yagyuu<br \/>\n     wasn&#8217;t hesitant enough to have been ignorant of Belial&#8217;s body beforehand.<br \/>\n     Few people had ever bothered to discover, or been allowed to discover, that,<br \/>\n     just because the nerves weren&#8217;t in either of the two standard arrangements,<br \/>\n     didn&#8217;t mean their density or sensitivity was any less. And Seiichi was the<br \/>\n     only one of those people nearby.<\/p>\n<p>Or, for that matter, still alive.<\/p>\n<p>Se moaned softly as Yagyuu slid down hir body and his tongue followed the path<br \/>\n     of his fingers. It felt good; hot and smooth, with a bright shiver to the<br \/>\n     sensations that fluttered through hir. Good enough that Belial was panting<br \/>\n     for breath. <\/p>\n<p>Seiichi had definitely been telling.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Yours,&quot; Hiroshi whispered to hir again, &quot;so relax for me.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Or perhaps they just all thought alike.<\/p>\n<p>It was true, though. They were hirs, and the liquid echo of their pleasure<br \/>\n     in hir body was the proof of it. So Belial did relax, letting Hiroshi tease<br \/>\n     hir nerves and feed hir desire until se felt like fire was dancing over hir<br \/>\n     skin.<\/p>\n<p>And then under hir skin.<\/p>\n<p>And then Belial was arching into Hiroshi&#8217;s hands as ripples of pleasure washed<br \/>\n     through hir, hot and sleek and brilliant.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Marui tossed his head back with a shiver, drawing away from Masaharu, and Masaharu<br \/>\n     might have protested that, except that the humming tingle of other people&#8217;s<br \/>\n     sensations suddenly had an edge. The first wringing heat was already clamping<br \/>\n     down on him when Sanada surged forward, thrusting into him fast and hard,<br \/>\n     and Masaharu lost track of the world outside his skin for a while.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>Renji sucked in a sharp breath as someone else&#8217;s climax crested through him,<br \/>\n     jerking his hips up, wringing a desperate sound from Akaya. Renji&#8217;s hand,<br \/>\n     which had been clasped loosely around Jackal&#8217;s cock, tightened and Jackal<br \/>\n     bucked into it with a low, vibrant moan. Seiichi shivered and tensed, trying,<br \/>\n     Renji knew, not to thrust into Jackal&#8217;s mouth, but he was swept along, too.<br \/>\n     His teeth against Akaya&#8217;s throat made Akaya start, body tightening around<br \/>\n     Renji. And then again. And again. And Renji closed his eyes and let the heat<br \/>\n     drag him out of himself.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>When Seiichi recovered enough breath and wits to untangle himself a bit, Belial<br \/>\n     promptly twined hirself around him. Purring. The content little humming noises<br \/>\n     in hir throat made Seiichi chuckle.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;One knew you were a good idea,&quot; Belial murmured.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Have to agree with you there,&quot; Niou yawned from where he was lying<br \/>\n     with his head on Yagyuu&#8217;s stomach.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Mmm,&quot; Akaya put in, sounding a bit dazed.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;You didn&#8217;t break him, did you?&quot; Belial asked, eyeing Akaya. He revived<br \/>\n     enough to give hir a dirty look.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Don&#8217;t be silly,&quot; Marui yawned. &quot;Just because Akaya was the<br \/>\n     only virgin here&#8230;&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Akaya made to get up, probably to go strangle Marui, only to pause with a wince<br \/>\n     and a dubious look.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Asprin first,&quot; Renji told him, amusement lurking behind his practical<br \/>\n     tone, &quot;and then a hot soak. Retribution later.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Belial collapsed on the floor, in the middle of them all, laughing. &quot;You<br \/>\n     were all a good idea,&quot; se declared, looking immensely pleased.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Three<\/h2>\n<p>It was pure luck, really. Akaya happened to be the only one in the room when<br \/>\n     Genichirou woke from his nap. And Genichirou happened to be looking in the<br \/>\n     right direction to notice the covert glance Akaya gave his bare skin, and<br \/>\n     the faint flush that followed.<\/p>\n<p>He did find it amusing that Akaya was still shy after the last forty-eight<br \/>\n     hours.<\/p>\n<p>Genichirou considered his immediate urge to invite Akaya over to have a closer<br \/>\n     look. He had certainly had his own inhibitions lowered in that time period,<br \/>\n     hadn&#8217;t he? But, after all, he and Akaya had not had, as Niou insisted on<br \/>\n     putting it, <em>quality time<\/em> together yet. <em> <\/em>Now seemed like<br \/>\n     a good time. &quot;Akaya,&quot; he called, low-voiced, and held out a hand<br \/>\n     when Akaya looked sidelong at him.<\/p>\n<p>Akaya was still for a long moment before he rose and approached. His eyes were<br \/>\n     wary, but also brightening, the way they did when he played practice matches<br \/>\n     against Genichirou. Especially matches that got just a little serious. The<br \/>\n     brightness pleased Genichirou, but the wariness made him sigh, silently.<br \/>\n     Seiichi had told him he would have to address that sooner or later. And while<br \/>\n     he&#8217;d managed to side-step the issue until now, Genichirou didn&#8217;t much like<br \/>\n     the idea of a bedmate being afraid of him.<\/p>\n<p>Nor did he deceive himself that this retreat would be a one time thing, not<br \/>\n     with Hatter, Niou and Seiichi all involved.<\/p>\n<p>So Genichirou drew Akaya down and gathered him close, the way he held Renji<br \/>\n     or Seiichi when they were upset or troubled. He almost winced at the stiff<br \/>\n     surprise in Akaya&#8217;s body. Genichirou stroked his neck and back, seeking to<br \/>\n     quiet him, and slowly Akaya relaxed. Bit by bit the tension in him uncoiled<br \/>\n     and he leaned more heavily against Genichirou&#8217;s chest until, at last, he<br \/>\n     rested his head on Genichirou&#8217;s shoulder with a faint half laugh.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Sanada-san,&quot; Akaya said, breath warm against Genichirou&#8217;s neck,<br \/>\n     &quot;I know.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Hm?&quot; Genichirou inquired.<\/p>\n<p>Akaya ducked his head down a little further. &quot;I know. When I lost to Fuji<br \/>\n     and you let me go&#8230; I knew then. It&#8217;s all right.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Genichirou was slightly shamed by Akaya&#8217;s ready forgiveness. &quot;Thank you,<br \/>\n     Akaya.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Mm.&quot; Akaya ran his fingertips down Genichirou&#8217;s chest, not looking<br \/>\n     up.<\/p>\n<p>The shy touch reminded Genichirou of his initial intention, and he set a hand<br \/>\n     under Akaya&#8217;s chin to lift his head. Akaya caught his breath under Genichirou&#8217;s<br \/>\n     kiss, pressing against him. Akaya was tense again, in a different way, now,<br \/>\n     and he shivered as Genichirou eased the robe off of him. Genichirou was pleased<br \/>\n     with this responsiveness, but for this first time between them he didn&#8217;t<br \/>\n     want tension of any kind. He wanted to reassure Akaya. Wanted Akaya to feel<br \/>\n     safe enough to answer him properly. So instead of pushing Akaya down on the<br \/>\n     sheets, he leaned back and drew Akaya along to lie over him.<\/p>\n<p>Akaya made a small, surprised noise and wriggled a bit to get comfortable.<br \/>\n     And then he paused and stretched more slowly, eyes drifting half shut as<br \/>\n     their bodies pressed together, lean and hard and warm. Genichirou chuckled<br \/>\n     and wound his fingers into Akaya&#8217;s hair, guiding him down to be kissed again.<br \/>\n     He swept a palm, slowly, up and down Akaya&#8217;s back, over his shoulders; Akaya&#8217;s<br \/>\n     legs tightened against Genichirou&#8217;s hips when he rubbed his thumb, gently,<br \/>\n     over a nipple. When Genichirou slid both hands down to knead Akaya&#8217;s thighs<br \/>\n     and rear, Akaya turned into a boneless sprawl and Genichirou had to laugh.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;You like that?&quot; he murmured.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Mmm,&quot; Akaya agreed against his neck.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Good.&quot; Now Akaya was closer to where Genichirou wanted him; lax<br \/>\n     and pliant and ready to be pleasured. Genichirou fished briefly in the tangled<br \/>\n     sheets for the bottle of oil someone had dropped there. That addition to<br \/>\n     his touch drew some interesting noises from Akaya, half gasps and little<br \/>\n     murmurs caught short. The murmurs turned to genuine moans as Genichirou&#8217;s<br \/>\n     fingers spread Akaya open and massaged his entrance. Akaya wouldn&#8217;t stop<br \/>\n     moving, now, tiny twists and stretches that brushed his skin silkily over<br \/>\n     Genichirou&#8217;s until Genichirou had a hard time remembering to go slowly.<\/p>\n<p>When he finally pressed his fingers into Akaya, Akaya released a long breath.<br \/>\n     &quot;Sanada-san,&quot; he whispered, soft and rough. The sound of it was<br \/>\n     enough to make Genichirou rock his hips up against Akaya&#8217;s as his fingers<br \/>\n     thrust deeper. This time the sound Akaya made had no words.<\/p>\n<p>Genichirou didn&#8217;t think Akaya noticed at all when the door slid open. He, however,<br \/>\n     was well placed to meet Seiichi&#8217;s eyes as they widened and then gleamed with<br \/>\n     a reflection of Seiichi&#8217;s sudden, considering smile. Genichirou&#8217;s lips twitched.<br \/>\n     Seiichi wanted to join the fun, hm? He didn&#8217;t think Akaya would object; Genichirou<br \/>\n     knew he didn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>Genichirou raised his knees and spread his legs, inviting Seiichi. Akaya gasped<br \/>\n     as Genichirou&#8217;s legs pressed his own wider apart, shivered as Genichirou<br \/>\n     withdrew his fingers with a final, firm caress.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Have you been wondering what it would be like to have Seiichi inside<br \/>\n     you, Akaya?&quot; he asked, keeping one eye on Seiichi&#8217;s amused expression<br \/>\n     as he came and knelt, silently, between Genichirou&#8217;s legs.<\/p>\n<p>Akaya shuddered. &quot;Yukimura-san&#8230; he&#8230; yes,&quot; he stammered, tucking<br \/>\n     his head down deeper against Genichirou&#8217;s shoulder.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;You have good instincts,&quot; Genichirou noted, dryly. &quot;He can<br \/>\n     be rather intense. It helps to have someone else there. Someone else to hold<br \/>\n     you.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Akaya stilled. &quot;Yukimura-san?&quot; he asked, very softly, after a moment.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Yes,&quot; Seiichi answered, laying his hands gently on Akaya&#8217;s back.<br \/>\n     &quot;I can leave the two of you alone, if you&#8217;d rather, Akaya.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Akaya shook his head quickly, though Genichirou could feel that his face was<br \/>\n     hot. He pressed against Genichirou, breathing fast, and Genichirou closed<br \/>\n     his arms around Akaya, anchoring him. He waited for Akaya to relax against<br \/>\n     him again and nodded to Seiichi. Seiichi shed his robe and settled between<br \/>\n     Genichirou&#8217;s spread thighs. He took in a sharp breath as Genichirou reached<br \/>\n     down to slide an oiled hand down his hardening erection until Seiichi laughed<br \/>\n     and caught his wrist. <\/p>\n<p>Genichirou smoothed his hands over Akaya&#8217;s rear, spreading him open again,<br \/>\n     and Seiichi leaned down to place a soft kiss at the small of Akaya&#8217;s back.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Ready?&quot;<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p>&quot;Ready?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Yukimura-san&#8217;s voice was gentle, as reassuring as the firm touch of Sanada-san&#8217;s<br \/>\n     hands and body. Akaya managed to vocalize a &quot;Yes,&quot; albeit a shaky<br \/>\n     one. Not that he was reluctant at all; he didn&#8217;t think he&#8217;d ever been more<br \/>\n     ready for anything in his life. The careful strength of Sanada-san&#8217;s hands<br \/>\n     had nearly dissolved him into warm, slack pleasure. And now the steady pressure<br \/>\n     of Yukimura-san sliding into him, opening him, pressing him harder against<br \/>\n     Sanada-san&#8217;s body, nearly stopped his breath. By the time Yukimura-san drew<br \/>\n     back and pressed in again, slow and even and unstoppable, Akaya was panting<br \/>\n     in quick gasps.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Easy, Akaya,&quot; Yukimura-san whispered to him, still moving with that<br \/>\n     unbearably even rhythm.<\/p>\n<p>Akaya bit his lip. &quot;Yukimura-san&#8230;&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Sanada-san&#8217;s hands slid down his thighs, squeezing tension out of them, and<br \/>\n     Akaya&#8217;s voice broke as his control washed away, again, under those hands.<br \/>\n     &quot;Harder, Seiichi,&quot; Sanada-san said, voice husky. &quot;Give him<br \/>\n     something to hold on to; Akaya won&#8217;t break.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Akaya&#8217;s next breath was almost a sob of relief as Yukimura-san&#8217;s rhythm turned<br \/>\n     sharper, more powerful. He was moving now, too, hips flexing against Sanada-san<br \/>\n     and the solid heat of Sanada-san&#8217;s body between his legs steadied him. The<br \/>\n     sensation flickering through him was raw, though, and the touches against<br \/>\n     him, inside him, were insistent. Demanding as the sparks flashing down Akaya&#8217;s<br \/>\n     nerves. It wasn&#8217;t long at all before shuddering heat raced up him, overtook<br \/>\n     him. He felt like it might have drowned him except for the two bodies pressing<br \/>\n     him between them. Held by their strength, Akaya jerked wildly with the bursts<br \/>\n     of pleasure, let Sanada-san&#8217;s mouth muffle the sounds he was making, let<br \/>\n     Yukimura-san&#8217;s weight pin him down until his muscles went slack and liquid.<\/p>\n<p>He could barely moan at the hot, rough feeling of Yukimura-san thrusting against<br \/>\n     his body&#8217;s lingering tightness. He did manage a small murmur when Yukimura-san&#8217;s<br \/>\n     forehead finally came to rest between Akaya&#8217;s shoulder blades, one hand stroking<br \/>\n     Akaya&#8217;s side as if to soothe.<\/p>\n<p>It took him a little while to remember that they should not, really, be done<br \/>\n     yet.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Sanada-san?&quot; he asked, a little hoarse, lifting his head.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;You can move again already?&quot; Sanada-san asked, sounding both amused<br \/>\n     and just a bit strained. &quot;I&#8217;m impressed.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Well,&quot; Yukimura-san said, voice suddenly silky in a way that made<br \/>\n     Akaya shiver, &quot;if Akaya is recovered enough to move a little, we can<br \/>\n     see about making you more than just impressed.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Sanada-san&#8217;s smile showed his teeth.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Wait.&quot; Akaya glanced down at Sanada-san, hesitantly. &quot;Would<br \/>\n     it&#8230; is it all right if&#8230; um.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Sanada-san looked up at him, questioning. &quot;Akaya?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;What you started,&quot; Akaya said, softly, &quot;would you&#8230; finish<br \/>\n     it?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Sanada-san&#8217;s brows rose. <\/p>\n<p>&quot;Akaya,&quot; Yukimura-san said, winding his arms around Akaya&#8217;s shoulders,<br \/>\n     &quot;if we do that you&#8217;ll be very sore after.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;I&#8217;ll be all right,&quot; Akaya insisted. &quot;I just&#8230; I want&#8230;&quot;<br \/>\n     He bit his lip.<\/p>\n<p>Sanada-san&#8217;s thumb tracing over his mouth coaxed him to stop. He drew Akaya<br \/>\n     down and kissed him until the tension Akaya hadn&#8217;t noticed left his shoulders<br \/>\n     again, chased away by the wet heat of Sanada-san&#8217;s mouth. &quot;If you like,&quot;<br \/>\n     Sanada-san agreed.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Yes,&quot; Akaya breathed, and then, as an afterthought, added, &quot;Please.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Sanada-san&#8217;s lips curled up. &quot;I very much do,&quot; he said, voice deeper<br \/>\n     than usual. <\/p>\n<p>Yukimura-san was laughing as he pulled Akaya up to lean back against his chest.<br \/>\n     Akaya let his head fall back on Yukimura-san&#8217;s shoulder, reminding himself<br \/>\n     to relax, as Yukimura-san&#8217;s hands guided Sanada-san against Akaya. Into Akaya.<br \/>\n     Stretching him open again, and it did ache a little but Akaya didn&#8217;t care.<br \/>\n     He&#8217;d been right. It felt good when Sanada-san rolled his hips up, thrusting<br \/>\n     deep into Akaya. Even without the urgency of orgasm pushing at him, it felt<br \/>\n     good to be opened. Filled. Fucked slowly, and he could see in the line of<br \/>\n     Sanada-san&#8217;s mouth that he was fighting to be slow, to be careful.<\/p>\n<p>Yukimura-san seemed to have other ideas. &quot;Doesn&#8217;t he feel good inside<br \/>\n     you?&quot; he whispered in Akaya&#8217;s ear. &quot;Do you like the stretch when<br \/>\n     he slides into you? The hardness of him?&quot; Akaya shuddered. Oh, yes.<br \/>\n     He did like it. He thought, fuzzily, that the hot tingle of Sanada-san&#8217;s<br \/>\n     pleasure in Akaya&#8217;s own body helped; but he&#8217;d like this even without it.<br \/>\n     &quot;Doesn&#8217;t he feel good, Genichirou?&quot; Yukimura-san asked Sanada-san<br \/>\n     in turn, and Akaya could hear the smile in his voice, could almost feel it<br \/>\n     in the hand Yukimura-san slid down Akaya&#8217;s chest. &quot;Hot and taut and<br \/>\n     yielding. So willing.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Akaya&#8217;s breath stuttered. He didn&#8217;t think he&#8217;d ever heard anyone sound so sultry.<br \/>\n     So suggestive. Eyes wide, he saw Sanada-san swallow hard, felt his hands<br \/>\n     tighten on Akaya&#8217;s hips, felt him drive up harder. And then Sanada-san&#8217;s<br \/>\n     rhythm broke into short, quick thrusts, and Akaya groaned with him.<\/p>\n<p>This time, Akaya really did collapse completely, and was entirely content to<br \/>\n     let Yukimura-san and Sanada-san arrange him in between them on the futon.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;You&#8217;ve gotten your way all around, haven&#8217;t you Seiichi?&quot; Sanada-san<br \/>\n     noted as he leaned over to collect a kiss from Yukimura-san.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Have I?&quot; Yukimura-san asked, lightly.<\/p>\n<p>Sanada-san snorted. &quot;This,&quot; he ran a hand over Akaya&#8217;s shoulder,<br \/>\n     &quot;is how you&#8217;ve always regarded our team, isn&#8217;t it? As devoted as any<br \/>\n     lover. And now you&#8217;ve charmed the rest of us to your way of thinking.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;It is pleasant that it worked out that way,&quot; Yukimura-san admitted,<br \/>\n     curling an arm around Akaya&#8217;s waist. &quot;Are you sure you&#8217;re all right,<br \/>\n     Akaya?&quot; he added, as Akaya shifted a bit.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;I&#8217;m fine,&quot; Akaya said, quickly.<\/p>\n<p>Yukimura-san&#8217;s hold tightened. &quot;Akaya.&quot; His voice in Akaya&#8217;s ear<br \/>\n     was soft, but edged with unmistakable command.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;All right, a little sore, but I really am fine,&quot; Akaya insisted.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Hm.&quot; Sanada-san combed Akaya&#8217;s hair back with his fingers. &quot;Why<br \/>\n     are you blushing then?&quot; he asked.<\/p>\n<p>Akaya growled. He hated his complexion, he really did. He burrowed, grumpily,<br \/>\n     into the tangle of covers. &quot;I wanted to make sure,&quot; he muttered.<br \/>\n     &quot;I did. It&#8217;s fine.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>There was a little rustling over his head, and then Yukimura-san pressed a<br \/>\n     kiss to his shoulder. &quot;I&#8217;ll be right back.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Make sure of what?&quot; Sanada-san asked, as Yukimura-san&#8217;s footsteps<br \/>\n     receded.<\/p>\n<p>Akaya turned one eye up to him. Sanada-san looked curious; he also looked unusually<br \/>\n     patient. Akaya sighed. He was almost as bad at resisting Sanada-san, when<br \/>\n     he was calm, as at resisting Yukimura-san any time. &quot;Sure of what it<br \/>\n     was I liked,&quot; he supplied. &quot;I liked it when&#8230; one of you was&#8230;<br \/>\n     inside me.&quot; He hunched his shoulders in a tiny shrug.<\/p>\n<p>Sanada-san pulled Akaya to him and held him tight enough to drive his breath<br \/>\n     out. &quot;Good,&quot; he said, definitely. The heat and velvet in his voice<br \/>\n     were enough to compensate Akaya for the embarrassment of saying it out loud.<br \/>\n     &quot;I know what you mean, though,&quot; Sanada-san added, relaxing his<br \/>\n     hold.<\/p>\n<p>Akaya looked up at him, surprised. &quot;You do?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Sanada-san gave him an ironic look. &quot;Yes, I do.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Oh.&quot; Akaya settled down in his arms, smiling a little.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Here,&quot; Yukimura-san said, coming back to their side, &quot;turn<br \/>\n     over for a minute, Akaya.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Akaya started and then sighed at the cool damp of the cloth Yukimura-san stroked<br \/>\n     him with. Maybe, he decided, Hatter was right and all this really was a good<br \/>\n     idea.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>End<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If the seal broadcasts sensation&#8230; <span class=\"summary-meta\">Porn with Drama, I-4<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"teaser\"><p>&quot;Niou,&quot; Sanada said, carefully, &quot;are you really suggesting an&#8230; orgy?&quot;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[45,314,507,509,313],"tags":[103,157,171,600,123,349,105,146,104,106],"class_list":["post-440","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-crossovers","category-rikkai","category-drama","category-porn","category-tennis-sanctuary","tag-pot-kirihara","tag-pot-jackal","tag-as-mad-hatter","tag-pot-marui-bunta","tag-pot-niou","tag-pot-rikkairikkai","tag-pot-sanada","tag-pot-yagyuu","tag-pot-yanagi","tag-pot-yukimura"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.branchandroot.net\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/440","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.branchandroot.net\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.branchandroot.net\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.branchandroot.net\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.branchandroot.net\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=440"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.branchandroot.net\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/440\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.branchandroot.net\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=440"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.branchandroot.net\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=440"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.branchandroot.net\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=440"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
