[ He already died a thousand times to embarrassment, what's one more instance? Tartaglia takes him at his word, smile unfolded like a fiend, relinquishing what basically amounts to blackmail material in good graces. Don't wound him too much now, he doesn't have a taste for vengeance yet. ]

Not out here.

[ Although Diluc was quick to spill the beans, Tartaglia's a lot more furtive about the matter, beckoning He Xuan off from the sun-speckled view and towards the interior of the ship. It's relatively cool wherever the darkness hits, striking at his back and his face. Silhouette half in shadow, he's purposefully inscrutable, walking too fast for it to be anything but deliberate.

Leading the way to the private suite, he's brokering no argument on the matter. Come on in. Soon as He Xuan has entreated himself to the room, Tartaglia shuts the door and relents to seat himself on the bed where the gift basket resides. ]


A grudge. We were strangers, but I riled him. No helping that. He loathes the Fatui, so by extension, he loathes me. [ Enlivening stuff, promised so much hostility and then some terrible demise at Diluc's hands? Like, okay then. ] To put it in simple terms, you might call me a "diplomat" for my country. That's how the Fatui function. I'd liken myself to a sword, if anything.

[ Only meant to be wielded for the Tsaritsa's will, no higher moral ground and amicability that vanishes when the goodwill does. Each and every fleeting chance to be more than a weapon is a beautiful one, but ultimately, this bloodlust never lets up. ]

.... I'm curious. What'd you do to earn Diluc's ire?

[ There goes the rest of his concentration, gone waltzing out of the room without him. Understanding reaches him, bludgeoning him alive, and Tartaglia's gaze snaps up like he's trying to forcibly hold He Xuan under it. ]

What? [ This is the worst thing he's ever heard. ] You can't be serious. With him?

[ That stick in the mud? Alright, time for a distraction. Deigning to take several bites of the truffles himself, Tartaglia tastes none of the sweetness. Instead, he's left with this weird, drugged-out craving for heat or something equally unbearable. Shouldn't it be spicy?

Longing sets itself upon him the same way. One minute, he's the closest to normal he'll ever be. The next, he's lost track of the conversation entirely, breath sawing out of his throat in hot splinters. Suffering the vising grip of desire, Tartaglia plucks the card clean out of the gift basket, scans it over for the first time since making this mistake. ]


Knew it was... too good to be true. [ Crumpling the note in one fist, he stands, wobbly and shaky on his feet. ] Don't... don't eat any more. Actually— toss them all out.

[ Too late for Tartaglia to fight off this feeling, though, red in the face as he staggers over to the bathroom like he can splash himself into sanity? As if he could use his Vision right now? The damage is done. Braced over the sink, he's struggling to focus, yearning so heavy and frantic in him. ]

Damn it.

[ Poisoned? Sure, in a way, as Tartaglia through his teeth to regulate his breathing, eyes shut and then open when he's tugged out of the haze by that remark. Reflected back in the mirror, his gaze is ocean-deep and feverish, cutting open a new low for him, but then again, he'd crawl upon the floor for power. Shame means so much less when he's just some exalted pawn. ]

I can handle it. ... This is nothing.

[ Clearly his throat so sharply doesn't do away with this awful energy when it's pried out of him, running like the faucet. He's past denying it, the expression on his face so blistering and induced. ]

Were you thinking I'd also let you do as you please with me?

[ Fresh out of any modesty, Tartaglia shuts the sink tap off. His stare's so hot and bruising, like he's begging to be thawed out or to lay waste to something, anything at all. ]

Or did you want it another way? To watch— as I conquered you, and had my way— until you surrendered to me, over and over.

[ Hurting for it, or thriving off the challenge? Which one is it? ]

Come on. Out with it already. No more misunderstandings.

[ The scoff leads to nothing, sinking so hard and fast in his throat, the sound of it demented and undone when he's held. Go on, smite him. Turned the rest of the way around, Tartaglia dodges the kiss, not so cagey and deprived that he's going to be felt up with the small of his back digging into the bathroom's countertop. ]

You're always so vague.

[ Stalking forward, he shoves He Xuan past the doorway and over the threshold, no way to outrun Tartaglia when he's hot on his heels. Coy, and then insatiable, he's slow and vicious with these pursuits. Pushing He Xuan back until he's all but nailed to the bedroom's mirror, it's floor-length and reflecting everything, like his mood and his demeanor, so vicious and still vying for more. Tracing one cheekbone with his thumb, Tartaglia smudges him with his touch. ]

Why's that? Can't say you want to fuck me? Is that too impolite?

[ Now Tartaglia leans in to claim his mouth, licking into it. A very bruising gesture on his part, rendered in longing and addiction, and an appetite far greater than any of these sweets could ever satisfy. Coming away from He Xuan, he plants that secret between their parted lips, only drawn away long enough to breathe. ]

Tell me how long you wanted me. You owe me that.

[ Not what he'd expected, following the wet and glistening curve of He Xuan's mouth and the flashing hints of teeth and tongue as he swallows the last of any retort. Decorating that lower lip with a heavy bite, he licks inward, tasting it if he happens to falls short of busting it. Helps that Tartaglia's hollowed out of everything but an appetite for these legendarily bad habits, making an example of himself by shoving a leg between He Xuan's thighs. Abruptly slammed back into the mirror, he's slouching even when he can't get any traction, confident he'll get the upper hand if he only waits it out.

Kissing him should've been sweeter and colder, something to take the edge off the heat; his head thumps back against the mirror, but the temperature won't drop, only rising when Tartaglia rests his cheek against the glass, panting unevenly. ]


I meant what I said.

[ As if he's gonna suck up to anyone? Threading through the long strands of He Xuan's hair that have come loose like chilled silk, he tugs, yanking him down like he can bring him back to mortality and not some weird, deathless state of mind. ]

What's with all of these secrets? [ First he's filthy, then he's wanton. Clutching up around him, Tartaglia sharply grinds his knee at He Xuan's groin even through the layers of this very stupid dress, courting his very imminent destruction. ] Make it up to me.

[ Or just get eaten alive by him, when he takes his dirty mouth to press teething bites into He Xuan's throat, leaving new and dark colors crawling down it. Will it bruise? He hopes so. Tartaglia's trying his hardest to leave his mark on him, staining him with his touch and these guiltless fingers, grip wound in his hair while his other hand's flirting with one shoulder, holding He Xuan at bay. ]

[ His ass is so flat, there's nothing to grope? Any flatter and it'll go concave.

But Tartaglia indulges it, haphazardly stumbling on his feet where he's pinned in place. Closer than further apart, his eyes turn ferocious. That's just how it goes when he's saddled with this bottomless hunger, like a sieve that can't be filled. Busy losing the rest of his mind to tugging the zipper down of his volition, he's wrenching out of He Xuan's reach. ]


Rip it and I'll leave wearing nothing. That fine with you?

[ Leveling the flattest retort possible, Tartaglia sinks to his knees. The dress is half-shucked off where he's crouched down, now split down the middle. Back exposed through the tugged-open seam of it, the reflection of it through the mirror is indecent, as hot and flushed as his face. Ungracious and troublesome besides, he glances up from beneath his lashes. ]

I'll suck you off— [ More senseless conviction spills out of his mouth, laughter stretched out and searing his throat. ] —if you'll let me.

[ Nice dick, He Xuan.

Running mad in the excess of honesty, he comes up short with reasons to strategically withdraw. In a less effected state, he'd question the circumstances more. At least, his gaze wouldn't sink this badly, the air first stifling and then harsh where it's flung atop him, the heat crawling to blister over his shoulders.

At his own discretion, Tartaglia says what's on his mind, eyes gleaming. ]


You'll find me plenty obliging. [ His teeth sink into his lower lip when he says it, not at all edging away from the attention that he's invited upon himself. ] More enthusiasm would be nice!

[ Is flattery such a curse? It's probably for the best that Tartaglia doesn't acknowledge his own attention-seeking habits when he can't fall back upon taunting to cope. For once, he's wrung out, and doesn't remark on much else, pressing down into whatever new reprimand finds him with his mouth. One hand's loosely fitted around the base of He Xuan's cock, tongue sliding deep down the underside, more soft than not. No attempts to shove it past his lips when he's preoccupied with affixing him with insolence, like he could force captivation with only his mouth. ]

[ Is he supposed to say something? He's got dick in his mouth. Talking with a sloppy, fucked-out inflection sounds like a great way to not be taken seriously, and that's the one thing he can't stand, bereft of the praise that he adores or the sore commitment to a promise he didn't actually make.

Very, very briefly, Tartaglia's gaze is overcast and storming from beneath his eyelashes. Patience halfway to eroded, he's somewhat disoriented. Should he give in just this once? There's a moment of intense consideration on his part, gone very still as he reaches back around to the zipper and artlessly peels the dress the rest of the way down, that weird curse placed on him either severed or in shambles.

After that, mind made up, Tartaglia slows to a crawl with his ministrations, slyness marring his stare. If He Xuan's truly wanting, then he ought to know for sure first.

So beg. He'll concede for nothing less, fist loosening even where he's got his hand wrapped around as low as his ballsack, mouth split only wide enough to take about a fourth of dick in his mouth. Not even half, no gesture that truly satisfies. Dangling in that challenge presented by He Xuan's hand, Tartaglia knows full well that he could be yanked up at any time.

But goading comes so easily. He Xuan should've thought some more about the kind of monster that Tartaglia is, depraved enough to stretch out temptation. Flippant with his tongue when it runs down a vein, he's swallowing spit and not the least bit pentient for drawing things out, despite the resultant ache in his jaw. ]

[ His appetite is such a crazed, voracious thing. Stranded under the mania of it, desiring a closer touch or to be ripped apart or something between the two, he doesn't protest the fever-tight grip of He Xuan's hand, thinking a bit distantly on how it should be colder. If it were up to him, it'd be frigid enough to melt him all the way through. There's no way that Tartaglia can get rid of this insufferable warmth otherwise, mouth heavy with the taste of deep-throating him, sulking and roughed-up and still wanting more and more than could be feasibly given.

Mostly, those urges are violent. Inside, he's a filthy mess of contradictions, easy to bruise and easier to rile, much too vulgar and far too unsweet for his own good. Maybe he should've been better about showing that before, not waiting until his inhibitions were stripped back and pared down to reveal that he's completely insensible, that it isn't love that overrides all that could exist in his heart but this tendency to run his opponents through.

But He Xuan's hardly an adversary, and Tartaglia licking his lips, his stare so deep and dark. Fingers flexing a little, they crumple together and then hangs limp in someone else's clutches.

Righted, he's yanking off the dress so it drops the rest of the way with the hand that hasn't been caught, unashamed with the nudity. It's fine. It's not ideal, but even if it's ripped to shreds, he'll walk off the ship with his ego intact. Maybe he's a little bit of a masochist, given this proclivity toward harming others, harming himself. ]


At least take your clothes off, if nothing else. How am I supposed to touch you beneath all those layers?

[ Is He Xuan just going to finger him and fuck him out? That's a thought. Here's another, eyes gouging him through, face-to-face and so unbecoming for it. ]

If you're gonna do this to me, then I want you to watch.

[ No looking away. ]

[ Reasoning impaired and common sense corroding, Tartaglia's aching less under the pull of aphrodisiac than the imbalance. Unsettled, stepping out of the pool of his clothes, his thoughts smearing like his lack of poise, no restraint in him at all when he falls back into the bed. The landing is soft, but it doesn't take the edge off, glancing sidelong at that weirdly floating bottle and back at He Xuan when it zooms back into his hand.

Kind of unreal, the sight's too dreamlike, more akin to a fantasy; panting into the sheets, he's gulping insensibly with the notion. Too late to ask if they could do it in the shower or something, crank the water at full blast, icy enough to thaw the nerves. Not like he has enough frame of mind to use his Vision either, cast on the floor with everything else.

Less substantial than even these rich sheets is his sudden lapse in control, grasping rather uselessly at the sheets, knuckles so heavy with strain. Never has he harbored the intent to shove his fingers inside his ass and get off that way, so of course it isn't an effortless act to receive any now. Crushing and vice-like even though he's hardly a virgin, he's clenching down around the part of He Xuan's hand that's slid inside. The sensation is unyielding, slick from the lube, but insufferably hot, the air sawing out of his lungs while he's still full of things he can't exorcise. ]


Just a promise from you.

[ Hard to be anything but stupidly honest when Tartaglia's made so vulnerable, breath coming out too shallow and fast, skin suffocated by the heat. Ignoring the fact that his dick's throbbing so angrily between his legs, he's reaching for whatever of He Xuan that he can touch while impaled on his hand. ]

Give me your word.

You need to ask?

[ So unsweet, there's no subtlety left in him, baring all the terrible greed like the Adam's apple set in his throat. Abject with his stare, Tartaglia's shoving at those fingers tugging around his cock to wrap his own around them, stroking erratically so he doesn't fall right off the sharp precipice of self-control. Anything like discipline in him is halfway to annihilation already, inglorious and brutalizing with his own hand.

Losing it, losing himself in it, he's palming broadly along He Xuan's nape, clutching him down so he's dragged closer. Impatient and prying, Tartaglia's pushing so He Xuan lowers his head for once before him. ]


Do it.

[ He'll fall to pieces if left on his own, well before any vulgarity. Buried into with grinding slowness, he's shuddering, the noises leaving him filthy and shattered. Well out of his own depth, every inch of him glistening in sweat or wreathed in shivers, Tartaglia's nudging himself down so he can take those fingers deeper. The dip in his backbone proves inflexible, even when he's struggling to arch off the bed. ]

Do it already. I'm letting you.

[ Or he'll do it, and he'll be relentless and cruel in wrenching up to overpower He Xuan. ]

[ It's fine. Look, he'll be the one to tip his head back and laugh, high and mirthless, wishing for more grace under the skin or less smoldering heat. Much too hot to do anything else besides sinking onto He Xuan's dick, anyways, temperature spiking when Tartaglia's running himself too thin. It's like being branded on the inside; he's clumsy about accepting the scalding trespass when punched out of air.

But he's grinding down against it until his body's swallowed more cock, wet from the lube and tenderly opened up. Figures it'd be hard to ride He Xuan's cock when held taut against the mattress. Predicting the pace comes easily enough but it still throws him hard when the full length of it slams inward, filling him too quickly.

He's clenching for all the space it occupies inside of him, throbbing from the overwhelming stretch. Pushed much too deep, the thrusts are overwhelming, and Tartaglia's gripping at He Xuan's wrist before long, fingers gnawing shallow crescents where they've dug in. Not to retreat, though. Even in a compromising position, legs pulled taut on either side of He Xuan's waist, he's ceaseless in his attempts to drag him further down. ]


Come on. [ His voice is so shivery, tremors eating up the clarity it could've carried. ] Come closer. You'd make me wait this long?

[ Why the hell is He Xuan propped up so far away, anyways? Kneeling to fuck him dispassionately is all well and good, but it's nothing proximate, not the soul-sucking closeness that Tartaglia craves so earnestly. ]
