Some trouble in paradise

[captain_by_the_book]

Who: Cassian Andor, K-2SO, and a lot of angst
What: Cassian's been moping after his fights with Emerald, Kay is worried, and talking has a 50/50 chance of making it worse
When: Dated to tomorrow, after Kay's network post
Where: SoKaCa house in Attleton
Warnings: Likely mentions of war-related topics and robot sex speculations


[ Ever since that class in Everglade, Cassian's been quiet and a little bit mournful, a mood which only got worse with the days - even though he seemed perfectly enthusiastic about tackling his cooking class, complete with a manic hunt for blood pudding recipes from various worlds and countries.

He knows Kay's been noticing, and he knows that Kay has noticed he has noticed, but... Well, there's still some hope to get around this conversation. There's simply no way to properly explain what has happened without hurting Kay's feelings, and he's already upset enough about the whole vibration function disaster.

He's curled up in bed in the attic bedroom of their house, his forehead pressed against Kay's side, an arm wrapped over the droid's middle. On a normal day, this would be the perfect, blissful ending to the day. Now he's tense, lines around the corners of his mouth and eyes. ]

[He hums to himself as he does come closer, forehead to forehead now. If only Kay had lips, he would kiss him now. Soon... But better be careful, too, it wouldn't do to hurt Kay's feelings or make him think what they have isn't enough - especially with so many people voicing opinions on their sex life.]

I just couldn't help thinking, we could have done so much more than we did with that android body of yours...

[k2so]

[It's nice of Cassian to consider that. Kay will always worry, some things can't be helped, but he feels loved enough in his usual body to want to try giving the other one a shot.]

I didn't know the limits it had back then. We need to dust it out of where we left it and see if it's anatomically correct.

[captain_by_the_book]

[He grins. Now that's a promise...]

Anatomically correct, hmm? You know me, I'm a firm believer in thorough testing of new equipment.

[k2so]

[A shameless one.]

Heh. It's almost our duty to make sure everything is in working order. You know, to make sure nothing unplanned happens and to take advantage of everything.

[captain_by_the_book]

Of course. It would be downright criminally neglectful to let you go in the field before we have confirmed that you are fully functional.

[He dips his head a little, lets his lips brush over Kay's vocoder grille in the closest they can come to a kiss. Well, maybe not quite the closest.]

Not that I intend for you to be using these functions with anyone else.

[k2so]

We can't be less than professional. [Kay's reply is his chest revving in a soft purr.]

I wouldn't. [Nor do it nor want it with anybody else but Cassian. They need nothing and no one else right now. Things were going to be all right.]
