Hex
His ears were back and he hissed loudly as the man tried to catch hold of his arm.
"I said no," Nyx said, baring his teeth. They were down one of the many winding halls near the residential area, alone, but not hidden.
"I don't see why you're being so difficult. I paid you last time, and I'll pay you again. Come on, just come back to mine," the man snapped, glancing around to make sure no one was watching as he caught Nyx around the middle to try and haul him along.
Nyx hissed louder and gave him a kick in the shin. "I said I would not take you as a client again!"
The man hadn't been too rough or violent, those things didn't bother Nyx at all. No, this man had almost been too friendly, calling often after their encounter and sending Nyx little gifts. Usually he loved that sort of thing, but this man... He made him uneasy.
"I have money, you could just let me look after you," the man said, trying to soothe him. "I could be good for you..."
Nyx bit down hard on his shoulder, sharp teeth piercing through the man's uniform. That seemed to be the final straw as the man moved to strike him.

Hex opened his eyes and smiled softly.
"Good morning to you, too," he said. "What do you want for breakfast?"
He dragged a lazy hand down the shape of him, more pleased than he could say that Nyx had stayed all night.
no subject
"Fish," Nyx said, nuzzling at Hex's shoulder again. "And then attention and you again," he decided, happily making demands.
no subject
Hex smiled and breathed in.
"Computer, fish and chips program one," he said.
The replicator got to work.
"It's exactly like this place on Earth. You might like Earth, it's nice," he told him, nuzzling in to kiss him as the food began to smell good enough to make his stomach growl.
no subject
Nyx purred louder at the attention, until the smell of food has him crawling out of bed.
"Tell me about Earth. You like it there? You want to live there?" He asked as he took some food.
no subject
"I enjoy it. There are many places to go, all so very different. It's clean, and where I like to go...warm," he smiled, getting up to get ready for the day while Nyx enjoyed the meal.
"I really like a place called Brazil," he said, then told Nyx of the heat and humidity and plants and animals, and the magnificent river. "But there are huge cities, too. San Francisco is incredible."
no subject
"I like sun, but not too hot. I like soft beds, fresh water, good food..." Nyx said, listing things off while he happily sat and ate in the nude.
no subject
"Makes sense, yeah? I figured a prince would enjoy the best tjings," he smiled appreciatively.
Hex joined him to eat, not bothering with clothes either.
no subject
Nyx nodded, purring a little as he ate.
"Yes, nice things," he agreed.
no subject
The sound Nyx made warmed him deep inside. Hex enjoyed it, realizing it wasn't part of his empathic ability. It was just a reaction.
I reaction he enjoyed.
"Would you like to see something nice?" Hex asked bashfully.
no subject
Nyx had another big bite, then nodded. "Yes, show me."
no subject
Hex was going to need to get clothes anyway, and in his closet was a safe. He took Nyx to it and showed him a stack of metal rectangles. Heavy, dark, but shimmering as it was turned this way and that.
"It's not very pretty, but that's what I win when I fight. That's going to fund me future," he said.
Behind him, the safe was nearly full.
no subject
"Shiny," Nyx said, nodding his approval. "You hide them in a box though?"
no subject
Hex nodded, thought a moment, then took a breath.
"It's latinum, which isn't good for much on the station, but it's valuable everywhere else. Some worlds value it more than others. I keep it hidden because it's me future and I don't want anyone to take it before I need it, yeah?" he explained.
no subject
"Oh. That makes sense, I guess," Nyx nodded, moving to get himself dressed.
no subject
"It's safe in here," Hex smiled. "And when I'm done here, it will be waiting."
He moved closer, becoming too much of a nuisance for Nyx to keep dressing.
"And I can get you nice things?" he suggested.
no subject
"I do like nice things..." Nyx agreed, starting to purr again as Hex got close. "Is there work for you today?"
no subject
"No, not today. Or the next few days. I'm at the end of this rotation," he smiled.
"I have no plans, either," Hex added.
no subject
"Then why are we not back in bed?" Nyx asked.
no subject
Hex looked him up and down, then smiled.
"Because you put your clothes on so I have to start from the beginning, I reckon," he said and pulled Nyx in to kiss him.
He kissed him with familiarity and confidence he'd lacked the night before. Now that he knew how to make Nyx purr, he made the effort. Tasting. Touching.
no subject
Nyx, in return, held on tight and started to nudge Hex back towards the bed.
"We can spend all day in bed- Until it's time to eat again at least. I like eating."
no subject
"Don't you have commitments?" he gasped between kisses while he stripped Nyx bare.
By the time they reached the bed, he'd managed to remove everything the prince had just put on.
no subject
"I do as I please," Nyx huffed, though he knew he should go work at Robin's bar later tonight.
no subject
Hex smiled at that, mouth curved against Nyx's lips as he kissed him.
"I please you??" he asked, his smile growing even as he spoke.
no subject
Nyx gave the question serious consideration, then nodded.
"Yes," he decided. "You please me very much."
no subject
That simple statement emboldened him more than anything he'd ever heard. He could take on the entire galaxy on that rush alone. It was definitely going to fuel him through his next fight.
And it prompted him to shift and move, and move Nyx a bit, so he could worship him, proper like. He mapped his jaw and neck, then tracked lower with hot, hungry kisses.
