Room 507, Sunday Evening

[dontvotemeout]

The one downside to Bruce knowing exactly what day it was in Fandom was that he was completely aware that Jason was going back before he needed to. There was a whole week of break left - almost another month in Gotham - and Jason easily could have stayed. But the truth was, he missed the island. He missed his friends, and just as much, he missed the independence he had here. He loved being Robin, there was no denying that, but sometimes, going back to following someone else's rules was hard, especially when that someone was Bruce Wayne.

After agreeing that he'd come home to Gotham again within the next few weeks, Bruce had agreed to let Jason head back to Fandom. He didn't have that much to pack - most of his Christmas presents had come in the form of clothes and money to buy modern things on the island - so that meant that when he got back to his room, he threw his bag down without bothering to unpack it. There'd be time for that later, and right now, he wanted to see if there was a position he could find on his bed that wouldn't make his latest set of bruises ache. If there was one thing that could be said about Fandom, at least he didn't get beaten up here as often.

Nico was barely capable of opening his eyes to see Jason come, but it was only a moment before he reached to pull the other boy against his chest. "Now you'll tell me what I do to you?" he teased.

[dontvotemeout]

Jason laughed as he just about collapsed on top of Nico. "You make me crazy. Good crazy. Feel good crazy."

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

He smiled, liking that he could make Jason feel good, even if crazy was involved. Whatever, he was a son of Hades, crazy was always just around the corner. "So long as it's good for you, I'll keep trying to do it...though I left a few marks there." His fingertip traced over one of the spots on Jason's neck.

[dontvotemeout]

Jason shivered a little and held still for Nico's touch. "I don't mind. It feels good when you leave them. Does that make me weird?"

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

"I don't think so," Nico answered, his fingers petting along Jason's neck. "But I'm kind of weird myself."

[dontvotemeout]

Jason smiled as he let his head rest against Nico's chest. "Then I guess we can be weird together. Seems kind of fitting."

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

"You want weird? You do have your very own demigod of death at your disposal," Nico reminded him in a teasing tone. "Radiating fear and despair for nearly a century."

[dontvotemeout]

Jason probably should have paid more attention to the "fear and despair" part, but instead... "My very own demigod? At my disposal?" he said, grinning. "I still can't believe you're almost a century old, no matter how much I hear it. And I'm not afraid with you. Not at all."

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, well I'm more amazed you're not afraid. Your world's gotta be pretty crazy if none of my...gifts bother you." Or he'd just yet to be around when Nico lost control of his temper. "At least tell me if you get too cold." Or if Nico stole too much of his heat.

[dontvotemeout]

Jason had seen enough terrible things in Gotham that no, Nico's gifts didn't quite compare yet. He wasn't sure if he wanted to mention that though when they were still both feeling good. "I will. Right now though, I'm still good."

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

Nico tightened his arms around Jason. "It's good you were already letting me stay, because now I really don't want to move."

[dontvotemeout]

"It's good I was already letting you stay, because I don't feel like getting up," Jason replied, feeling quiet comfortable on top of Nico. "Or letting you up either."

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

"And you didn't even have to tie me up," Nico grinned. Of course, he wouldn't have minded that.

[dontvotemeout]

"Yet. Maybe next time," Jason said with a lazy smirk. He did have all those zip ties in his belt that weren't being used...

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

Nico perked up at that thought. "That sounds like you've got an idea brewing," he remarked with a whole lot of interest.

[dontvotemeout]

"Well, I've been trained in tying up bad guys. Tying up a good guy shouldn't be that much different," Jason said, picking his head up to try to read Nico's expression.

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

Meeting Jason's eyes when he looked up would be the most intrigued Nico had looked all year. "You're not kidding. You'd do it?"

[dontvotemeout]

"If you want that? Yeah, I'd do it," Jason said, grinning now. "I think you'd look really good."

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

Nico felt a strange warmth filling his chest when Jason said that. He wasn't sure what the feeling was, but he thought it was better than looking at Apollo, which said a lot. "I...yes. Yes, I completely want that," Nico eventually spat out. "And you'd be cool...doing stuff?"

[dontvotemeout]

As far as Jason was concerned, anything that Nico "completely" wanted was probably something he'd be willing to do. That warm feeling went both ways when Jason thought he could make Nico really happy.

"You mean, like, doing stuff to you while you're tied up?" Now it was Jason's turn to perk up. "Yeah, I might be able to do something like that." It probably wasn't nice to tease, but it seemed like fun when he said it.

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

"Might?" Nico raised an eyebrow at the teasing, unable to pick between amusement and concern. "I get the feeling I'm going to be begging you again." Not that begging had gone badly for him just a little while ago.

[dontvotemeout]

Yeah, Jason had to grin more at that mental image. "Maybe," he said again. "I could be very nice and just give you what you want without you having to beg. But you're good at begging, for what that's worth."

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

"I didn't know someone could be good at begging," Nico admitted, a little sheepishly. "But I want to do what you like, too. It's not just about me."

[dontvotemeout]

"Honestly, I'm not totally sure about what I like yet," Jason said. He hadn't spent his break watching porn, after all. "But I think when I think of stuff, you'll be the first to know."

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

"Good," Nico said, okay with that answer. "I know I ask a lot of questions sometimes, and you told me your secret and all, but I still feel like there's a ton I don't know about you. Like, I don't even know how old you are." He didn't know how old he was, so it shouldn't really be a surprise.
