❤ - gentle or loving touch (romantic or platonic!)
fingers combing through his hair pull him slowly to consciousness and he furrows his brow, unhappy at being woken. he shifts, stretches, turns to press his face into the warm thigh under him. it occurs to him then, in a sleepy sort of way, that he’s not sure how he ended up in this position. he can fuzzily remember slumping sideways against a sturdy shoulder, brain heavy with exhaustion.

brown eyes blink open slowly and he turns his head to look up at the person above him. ❛ dorian?? ❜ it comes out raspy from sleep and he clears his throat to try again. the hand disappears from his head and he whines before he can stop it, a displeased pout crossing his face.
❛ i– fell asleep?? ❜

there it is again. firm pressure of fingers on the back of his neck, just hard enough to sooth without causing any pain. krem relaxes under the touch, shoulders going looser even as he pushes back against it slightly. part of him wonders if dorian connects this gesture to their time undercover, realizes he did the same thing as a wordless reassurance back then. he almost hopes he doesn’t, knows dorian shies away from things involving that time. a faint smile crosses his face and he hums his acknowledgement of dorian’s presence behind him.
it’d taken a long time to get back here, after. for weeks following the Incident, dorian pulled back from krem’s touch as if burned. only after several attempts on krem’s part did dorian begin allowing even casual touches again.

❛ back already?? i was certain you’d be gone longer. ❜ he tips his head back to look up at the man, smiling and marking his place in the book with a finger.
Person A, noticeably disheveled as they enter the room: Sorry I’m late, I was doing stuff
Person B, also disheveled and grinning smugly: I’m stuff

he told himself he’d never be weak enough to imagine what dorian’s mouth would feel like against his. told himself he’d never think about where dorian’s hands would fall, how he’d pull the other man close, how he’d taste–
but he didn’t think it would be like this. one hand tangled in his collar, the other gripping his hip tight enough to border on painful. he didn’t imagine it would be in a room filled with magisters, gazes feeling like oil slicks on his skin. didn’t imagine it would only be to further his image as dorian’s boy toy, the pretty slave that hangs off the magister’s arm.
it doesn’t stop the way he pushes into it with a soft noise, the way his eyes fall shut and he relaxes completely, body very nearly only held up by dorian’s hands on him.
he feels WEAK. disgusted with himself. how can he LIKE this, knowing where they are, what everyone thinks he is?? panicked thoughts swirl in his head and he can feel his heart thundering against his ribs.
dorian pulls back, though his hands don’t leave krem, and the smaller man gives him a wide-eyed, terrified look.
❛ are you thirsty, sir?? i could fetch you something to drink. white wine, perhaps. ❜ it takes everything in him not to stay in character even though his thoughts SCREAM at him to bolt.
out, out, OUT. I NEED OUT

❥- rough, violent, or dominant touch
nails bite into the back of krem’s neck, just above the collar, and krem gasps, arching his back even as he goes to his knees. brown eyes squeeze shut and he links his fingers behind his back on instinct. head bowed in submission, he breathes out something that sounds like an apology, voice as uneven as his breath.
it’s alarmingly easy in moments like this to sink into the mindset of a slave, to submit and bare his throat.. there’s something dark and broken and perverse there. something he’ll do his best to ignore even as the stone floor bites into his knees.
or maybe it’s just that it’s dorian’s hand resting so heavily on the back of his neck, fingers catching on the leather of his collar. the thought makes something in his chest loosen and he relaxes under the touch, lets his body go lax as he waits for dorian’s next move.
