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."

Taking a shower right away this time sounds like a gift he doesn't deserve, but he's not about to argue. Irvin won't be happy when he smells like shampoo and soap instead of Irvin and he'll have to find a way to keep the dog content despite that. He'll find something. And then scrub away the stains on the floor. Do all his chores in peace. Sounds nice. Definitely better than the current situation. He can feel the guest's eyes on him -- he squirms, trying to make himself smaller and disappear beneath Irvin's body.

"Yes. Thank you, Jade." For not being angry, for allowing him to take a shower. There are a few reasons he's sincerely thankful. He closes his eyes then, taking deep breaths as he waits for Irvin to release him.

It doesn't take long before the knot goes down after Jade and his guest disappear into the study. And while Irvin sniffs him, making him stay in the same position for a few more minutes, eventually he seems satisfied and rolls up in a corner.

Once he's certain Irvin is fast asleep, Shinjirou sneaks into the bathroom. It's a disgusting feeling to have Irvin's come run down his thighs, even with soap and hot water to wash it away. He cleans himself up properly, puts salve onto his wounds and into his abused opening, and band-aids over the marks left by Irvin's claws. A definite improvement.

Then there's chores to busy himself with: getting rid of the stains on the floor, vacuuming every room except the study, doing the laundry and preparing dinner -- Shinjirou is fully unaware of the heated discussion that's going on between the two men. He's even in quite a good mood again when they leave the study and bows to the guest to quietly say goodbye.

It's hard not to notice that Jade isn't all that happy, though.

"You two don't get along." Touching Jade's arm, he tilts his head, a small smile on his lips. Jade told him he did the right thing. It doesn't matter that he's a bit sore from the rough mating when he has those words to hold on to. "Can I cheer you up?"

"Yeah, it kinda was." Seeing as Jade isn't pushing him away, he feels confident enough to lean against his chest ... and frowns at the dark smell he can taste even on his tongue when he inhales. It's not his place to ask questions, he knows, especially not with Jade visibly stressed.

He admires Jade's control. Seeing it slip even the slightest bit is odd, but sort of nice, too. Perfect control may not be possible, nor necessary. Maybe there's really a chance for him to learn. He sneaks a kiss onto Jade's neck, a bold move he tries to make up for by taking a step back.

"Give me a minute and I'll have dinner ready. Want me to prepare a bath for you while you eat?" Well, not asking questions isn't the same as more or less saying you stink.
castorprince: (smiles)

[personal profile] castorprince 2014-11-19 12:10 pm (UTC)(link)
"Alright. Take a seat."

He sets the table, still wearing the afterthought of a smile the entire time. The guest might've been angry or disgusted, but he doesn't care about guests as long as Jade approves of what he's doing. And with Irvin worn out, it looks like he'll have at least a few more hours of peace to come.

Eventually a steaming-hot plate is placed in front of Jade. "Here you go." Smile growing, Shinjirou fills a second plate for himself, though there's less on it than on Jade's. He doesn't want to spend a lot of time on his dinner, so there'll be enough time to prepare the bath.

"Might be wrong, but sake tonight?"
castorprince: (yawn)

[personal profile] castorprince 2014-11-19 01:39 pm (UTC)(link)
He's tired and maybe drinking isn't the wisest choice he makes today, but he nods all the same. After being alone with a highly agitated Irvin almost all day, the prospect of spending time with Jade -- a human being! -- and having a bit of sake sounds nice. "Sure, why not."

First the bath, though. After finishing his plate and excusing himself, he wanders off to take care of that. He picks a supplement and checks the temperature of the rising water, keeping it at a comfortable level until Jade enters the bathroom. "Hope dinner was alright. Anything I can help you with?"

Without much to do in the kitchen except do the dishes quickly, he ends up on the sofa, lying on his belly as he reads in the book Jade gave him. He's not the fastest reader and barely past the first chapter. Noticing Jade, he sits up and sets the book aside.

"That was fast." He pours the sake into their cups, then hands one over to Jade. "Huh. You don't look pissed anymore. That's good, right?"
castorprince: (pic#8399640)

[personal profile] castorprince 2014-11-19 03:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"No, you don't." Secretly, he's already had some sake, but he sips on his cup as if the sharp aftertaste surprises him, coughing as he swallows. Just another opportunity to train himself how to pretend successfully in front of someone. Jade did say he needed to learn that.

Leaning against him, Shinjirou closes his eyes. This must be allowed, surely? Too late to decide against seeking Jade's closeness. "Any idea why Irvin's been acting strange all day?"
castorprince: (calm)

[personal profile] castorprince 2014-11-20 12:22 pm (UTC)(link)
"Sorry," he murmurs, taking another sip. "Bold is a nice way of putting it."

After all, Irvin threw him down outside. But everything's settled down now and, though he's sore again, he feels at ease. Maybe his body and mind are so worn out, he's finally able to relax because that's all he can do anymore. And he worries he's a bit too bold, too, when he nuzzles Jade's neck.

"You got hard last time. Watching Irvin take me." He refills their cups once they're empty. "So that's something you're into, but not all of your guests?"

"You make it sound like I want him to be interested in me." Which he would be, if it was something Jade wanted. It doesn't seem like that's the case and so Shinjirou isn't bothered either. Though it is a bit odd, he figures that it must have something to do with Jade not liking the guy. Weird that he invited him at all, but enjoying the sight of someone getting fucked by a dog is weirder and Shinjirou doesn't give it much more thought than that.

"As long as Mr Curtiss is still interested in me," he says, trailing off, watching Jade closely. What he sees as mild teasing may not be all that amusing to Jade -- but he's also trying to find out if he got the name right.
castorprince: (smiles)

[personal profile] castorprince 2014-11-20 04:02 pm (UTC)(link)
The response is at the same time not surprising and almost shocking. Jade's mask slips so rarely that Shinjirou doesn't expect it to happen no matter what, but on the other hand it's a normal reaction and, just maybe, Jade's also pretty normal when he isn't a pervert and a tease.

He nods, resting his head on Jade's shoulder again. For a moment he's quiet, thinking. Then he whispers his response: "Yes, Jade." He doesn't want Jade to lose interest. For all the embarrassing, painful situations he's been put through, being with Jade is safer than running around and being a threat to innocent people. Discipline is easier to achieve when it feels better to accept and submit rather than fighting against everything and everyone, especially himself.

"Sounds nicer anyway."

"Huh. Me too." It's been a long day, even if in the end it didn't turn out as bad as Shinjirou had at some point feared it would. Sitting up, he gathers the sake and their empty cups. After putting them into the sink to take care of it tomorrow, he joins Jade.

And wonders if it'd be acceptable to make a request. With mostly an aggressive dog around to play with, he's got to admit to himself that quietly resting his head on another human's shoulder is a nice reprieve. Jade's day has obviously been stressful so far, though. Watching him with a frown, Shinjirou eventually decides against asking if it'd be okay to sleep in his bed and drops onto the futon.

"Anything I need to know about tomorrow?"
castorprince: (???)

[personal profile] castorprince 2014-11-21 03:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Not having to do anything is sort of pleasant, even if he's suspicious at first. He eases into the schedule until he actually feels comfortable, every day being the same over and over again. There's new dishes to try and he makes note of what meets Jade's approval and what he seems to really, really like.

And while Irvin's still around, he uses the time outside to meet Takaya. The drugs are safely tucked away in his pillow case. It's easy to hide something there when he's doing the laundry all day by himself and apart from feeling sleepy after starting up his dose again, there's no change. He takes good care of his body, using the salves every day before going to bed and it's a lot easier to get enough sleep when you're not out on the streets.

Just when he's almost lulled himself into the false belief that his life will be blissfully boring from now on, Jade mentions a party. Jade never mentions anything just because. Raising an eyebrow, he sets down his fork. "... I'm not really a party person."

"Nah." Shrugging, he turns his attention back to his not yet empty plate. "What did you tell them? Bet it isn't about my cooking."

Which is alright. He hasn't forgotten what he's been mainly bought for. And it's still a compliment, isn't it? He relaxes again, nibbling on a small piece of meat. "So you're going to let them fuck me, I guess. Never had more than two at a time. Sounds fun." Partially, he's being sarcastic. But then he's also honestly curious what it'll be like. At least he doesn't think his assumption is wrong. "As long as we're not talking animals here."
