    Summary

    You know when you want a soft serve ice cream cone, and you get up all the way to the drive-thru, only to be told the ice cream machine is broken?

    This situation is sort of like that, only Zayne is the broken ice cream machine unable to produce any soft server.

    ---
    Your and Zayne's schedules have been insane lately. From extended missions to medical exchanges, conferences, and night rotations, you've barely seen each other. You were grown adults and had lives, even if it now included each other. Normally, that wouldn't be a big problem... until it was. At least for Zayne it became one.

    Summary

    “What’s all this?” you ask.

    Zayne manages a smile that is at once cheeky and charming. “I seem to recall you saying something during our call earlier. Something about, ‘If I never have to make another decision again, it’ll be too soon.’”

    You manage a laugh. You did say that. And frankly, you’ll still stand by it. “I seem to recall that, too.”

    There is his touch at your waist, encouraging you to take a step, and then another. “In that case, perhaps you won’t be so opposed to my making the decisions tonight.”

    ———

    Or: Work leaves you feeling overwhelmed. Zayne has the perfect remedy.

    Summary

    You step towards him with a wolfish smile. Rafayel slips a finger into one of the belt loops on your pants, tugging you closer. “I think you could stand to be knocked down a few pegs,” you say.

    Rafayel’s brows raise, his eyes burning with a challenge. He opens his mouth, but the sound of the elevator arriving has him stepping back, putting a more appropriate amount of space between your bodies.

    The elevator dings open and there’s no one else there. You step inside and Rafayel follows immediately, slinking in close enough behind you for you to feel the warmth of him radiating against your back. When you turn to face him, he’s staring down at you.

    The door remains open for a few more seconds, waiting for any possible stragglers, and when it seems like no one else will be joining, Rafayel leans in to brush his lips against your ear.

    “I dare you,” he murmurs.

    So you do.

     

    Subby-ish Rafayel as requested

    Summary

    The full reason for why he dodges certain questions is a little more complicated. Usually he’d be glad to talk about his past, especially when it comes to Miles, but there is a little complication when it comes to talking to his subordinates. See, there is a good chance that if he starts talking about Miles, the fact they might mention the first time he and Miles met in court. And if they do, they might make a comment about how it was the first time they saw each other since they were kids. And if he does not voice his response to that very, very carefully, then Athena and Apollo will immediately realize he’s lying. 

    Because in reality, that is not quite the truth. 

    *****

    “So you’re a gentleman.” Phoenix says, and in a strange sort of word association that he’s not entirely sure makes sense even in his own brain, he follows that up with, “Does that mean you’re straight?”

    “I do not believe being a gentleman requires heterosexuality,” the man states, which is such an unwieldy sentence that Phoenix almost wants to laugh, but his hindbrain has other concerns at the moment.
