The market is, objectively speaking, a miserable place. Precious few of the merchandise are happy to be there, nude and bound and collared - sometimes even caged - free for every prospective customer to examine. Few of the customers are happy either. Prices are high, and the press of so many bodies create a stifling atmosphere.
All in all, it is exactly what Jade had expected. He strolls leisurely through the market, not particularly bothered by what is going on around him. It was one of the reasons he had been chosen for this assignment. Today is his first day at the market; he's meant to speak with the vendors, make connections, and walk away with a cheap but handy acquisition.
He's working on the last part now. It's surprisingly difficult to find someone useful and docile, but still with some spirit left - he does not trust the older slaves who are complacent with the system.
It's during his second time looping through the market that someone catches his eye - for all the wrong reasons. He stops, stares at the familiar figure in front of him, an uncharacteristically surprised expression flashing over his face.
Then he's smiling again. He's still unsure if this is a good turn of events, but perhaps he could use this to his advantage.
"My my, I didn't expect to see you here."

The smirk doesn't completely fade even when he starts kissing at Shinjirou again, slowly moving down his body, buttoning up his shirt as he goes. Despite his original plan, his hands don't always stay on the shirt; more often, they travel along Shinjirou's sides, groping and squeezing, always mindful of the bruises. Once, he pinches lightly at a nipple, rolling it between his fingers before he dips his head to suck at it, the edge of his teeth scraping against it when he withdraws.
But more than anything, this is a chance to indulge his curiosity - to see what other people find so appealing about this, the worship of their partners' bodies.
no subject
Then again, Jade's doing more than just helping him try on a new shirt. Arching into Jade's hands, skin hot, his fingers press into Jade's sides as if to mimic him. He really doesn't understand why Jade's doing what he's doing, at this time. His body is more than happy to welcome the attention without questioning it. Face sinking into Jade's soft hair, he takes a deep breath; gasps when Jade leaves a wet spot on his chest and a teasing drag of teeth on top of it.
This is quickly dipping its toes into dangerous territory. He's leaning forward, trying to shove Jade against the mirror as much as he's trying to keep himself from doing it. Cursing under his breath, right into Jade's ear, his eyelids droop as he observes what their reflections are doing ... it seems unreal, but it's happening. Completely painless, soft arousal prickling under his skin.
no subject
"Careful now," Jade mutters in return, spreading his knees wider to keep his balance as Shinjirou shoves at him. Then he decides that it doesn't matter.
Slowly, he sinks to one knee, trailing kisses down Shinjirou's stomach, until there's no more exposed skin left. The chain brushes against his cheek, cool against his heated skin. If the door were to open right now, what would they look like? The thought sends adrenaline pumping through him, his pulse spiking almost painfully as he reaches up to do the last few buttons.
no subject
The muscles in his stomach ache with how taut they are as Jade's lips travel down, and then it's done. He's wearing this new shirt. His skin has a light sheet of sweat over it and he hates to think that it's going to be noticeable should they put it back and try on another. He's not going to survive trying on another anyway, he realizes. Sooner than that he's going to come in his pants.
Breath hitching, he glances at the mirror, then down at Jade. "And? You approve?" He clicks his tongue, licking his lips. "I mean, of the thing. Shirt."
no subject
"I think it looks fine so far." His head is tilted back, eyes lidded. Shinjirou's hands send pleasant tingles running through his scalp, but that's not the most rewarding thing here - observing Shinjirou's growing desperation is.
"But- " Jade's head lowers again. "I'd like to see what it looks like with the pants you picked out."
As he speaks, his lips almost brush against the bulge forming in Shinjirou's pants. This is even less familiar than the gentle exploration of Shinjirou's body; Jade wants to unzip him with his teeth, but he doesn't trust himself not to fumble it and make a fool of himself.
Still, he can't deny that there is a definite thrill in being on one knee, having gotten Shinjirou hard with only gentle kisses and a light scrape of teeth.
no subject
Shifting his weight from one foot to the other, he glances at the pants he picked. It seems like that happened hours ago. To get into them, he'll have to get out of the ones he's wearing right now first. And it looks like Jade doesn't trust him to do that on his own either.
Outside, some women are talking loudly about their boyfriends. They're laughing, groaning in exasperation, having a great time, apparently. If they knew what was going on behind that door -- shuddering, he cups the back of Jade's head, rubbing his fingers lightly over the skin. It's better than fidgeting. "Okay."
no subject
One hand grips at the pants, preventing them from falling to the floor all at once. Inch by inch, he drags them down, feeling the fabric stretch and slide against Shinjirou's rear. But Jade is more focused on the cock in front of him - that is, focused on ignoring it. He lets his breath ghost teasingly against it, but that's all he does. His head ducks down, tilting slightly as his lips press onto Shinjirou's inner thigh, imitating Shinjirou's usual quiet hums in response to the hand stroking through his hair. It's shockingly easy to let go, allowing the sounds to form in his throat and reverberate into the surrounding air.
no subject
Making a distressed little noise, he lets his forehead hit the mirror. They're in public, he can't start moaning. He considers biting into his hand, but then he'd have to let go of Jade and he doesn't want to. The kiss tickles and his mouth drops open, mirror fogging up. "Fuck." It's a whisper, though it sounds louder than that in his ears. Staring at Jade down there, legs trembling, he mouthes you're awful. Despite that, he can't stop his hands still. Petting someone that bought him as a slave must be against some or another unwritten rule. He thinks he can get away with it, today, and rolls his thumb over Jade's cheek. It's warm; not burning up like his own, but that's not necessary to make him gasp.
no subject
Soon, the world narrows down to the subtle musculature in front of him, the feel of Shinjirou's hands in his hair, the warmth and softness against his reddened lips. Jade can't keep lifting his head to check on Shinjirou - he has to rely on other cues instead, like the shakiness of his limbs and the little noises he's trying to stifle. In a way, that's even better.
Finally, he comes to a stop mid-calf, sucking a mark there before he draws away. He's on both knees by then, his breath coming a little short when he looks up at Shinjirou again. "Do you think you can handle the rest from here?"
no subject
His hands twist in Jade's hair for a second when the teasing stops all of a sudden. He should be happy about that, probably, but now that it's already difficult to move around, the realization that he's supposed to do something is only frustrating.
"Yeah." He doesn't sound too sure of himself, he thinks, awkwardly raising one leg to pull his pants off the rest of the way. Figuring Jade would appreciate it if he did, he hangs them up beside the shirt before grabbing for the new pair. He can't bring himself to pull them up all the way, though.
They're tight -- not too tight, but they fit well enough that he knows it's not going to be comfortable trying to zip them up with the little problem between his legs. Nor will it look good -- just embarrassing again. Glancing at Jade, hands still on the waistband, he swallows around the lump in his throat. "... uh. I think, uhm, that's not going to work?"
no subject
He had just finished checking his appearance when Shinjirou asks for help. The problem makes him raise an eyebrow. "Surely you aren't afraid of a little discomfort."
no subject
He doesn't quite snap out of it completely by the time he remembers and squeezes his straining cock into the confinement of his new pair of pants. They aren't his yet, not that they will ever truly be even if Jade ends up buying them. What if he's going to stain them? That's not something he wants to explain to the shop assistant lady.
Leaning forward, his lips brush the corner of Jade's lips, then his jaw. Hands resting on Jade's sides again, he lets out a shaky breath. "It's fine, right?"
no subject
He glances at the mirror again, then back to Shinjirou, appraising the colour and fit of the clothes. Shinjirou would look good in something tailored, he decides, something that better shows off the long, clean lines of his form and the curve of his ass.
But for now, this will have to do.
"It's fine," Jade confirms. He had known they would be fine all along, or he wouldn't have risked letting them stain. "Let's go find you a proper tie. And perhaps a belt as well."
no subject
"I promise I'll wear a tie and a belt and ... whatever, but don't make me walk around like this."
no subject
He smiles, perfectly in control of himself again. When he speaks, though, his voice is cool. "I'm not making you do anything." His voice lowers, until he's speaking into Shinjirou's ear. "But how do you plan to relieve yourself? Are you going to ejaculate all over this mirror and force someone to clean up after you again?"
no subject
"No. I. Don't know?" He's not had any time to think it through, too mesmerized by having Jade on his knees in front of him, being gentle and careful. It's unfair that he's supposed to come up with a brilliant idea in this state Jade's put him in, intentionally. The only ideas his mind comes up with seem ridiculous, asking for trouble when there's no need for it. "Maybe I can ... calm down? Shit, I don't know. This is all your fault."
no subject
"Calming down would be a good start," he agrees, completely ignoring Shinjirou's accusation. Just because it's true doesn't mean Shinjirou doesn't have to deal with the consequences. "Why not change back into your old clothes as well?"
Finally, he pushes Shinjirou away, both hands gripping at his shoulders, steering him around to face the mirror again. "But before that, I'd like you to have another look. You seemed rather distracted last time."
no subject
It's a uniform. Jade obviously likes this style, but to Shinjirou, it just looks like his head's been slapped onto a random man's body. Cringing, both at his obvious boner and the unfamiliar picture of himself that he can hardly accept as his reflection, he glances away soon. Shifting, hands dropping to try and force his cock down, he snorts. "It's fine." Jade said so; what he personally thinks, which is that this isn't him, won't get him anywhere.
no subject
Shinjirou is doing a poor job of pretending he's fine with his choice, but Jade doesn't chastise it for him today. "Is there anything else you'd like to have?"
no subject
"Anything that isn't," he starts, then cuts himself off. Isn't like this is what he wanted to say, but strategically speaking, seems like a bad idea. He swallows once, then seeks out Jade's reflection. "I mean, this is kind of thin? Something warmer maybe? I don't like being cold all that much, you know." And he does get cold relatively quickly, a side-effect of the suppressants he's been taking. A sweater wouldn't just be more comfortable, but also practical.
no subject
"We can look for something after this." He tucks his hands into his pockets, freeing Shinjirou in the process. It's a clear sign for him to start changing.
no subject
He slips into the shirt first, noticing the difference. Frowning, he buttons up and rolls up the sleeves. It's not by much, but they are a bit too long. Same with the pants. Now that he's tried on something his size, he has to silently admit that clothes that actually fit him do look better on him. Grumbling without any explanation as to why, he deflates, cock following suit.
"Tch. I guess you win this time." He doesn't care to say what he's talking about before he turns around, cheeks red for another kind of embarrassment.
no subject
Nobody gives them a second glance when they step out. They had barely walked two steps when someone pushes past them, an armful of clothes in tow, heading into the dressing room they had just exited. A shop assistant asks if they need anything. When Jade shakes his head no, she turns to deal with another customer.
There are no other interruptions as Jade leads them to the section for outerwear, passing the aisles with jackets and heading to one mainly filled with sweaters. "Would you like a sweater vest? You could wear a jacket over it."
no subject
Staying close to Jade, sometimes brushing his arm as if to check if he's still there, he follows him blindly into a different area of the shop. He only raises his head to look around when Jade stops and speaks up.
"Er, no. Those are for old guys." It's not the real reason why he doesn't want one: Sweater vests are Aki's style. He doesn't want to be reminded of him every time he gets dressed. Hell, they're out shopping at this time so he can be avoided. Nibbling on his bottom lip, Shinjirou walks over to a selection of loose sweaters, distancing himself physically from the vests.
