POST CANON TRIPS WITH FLYNN: For bravestknight

[guildtrips]

[The world after Blastia was never going to be an easy one, of course. They had all committed to it, knowing very well there would be people cursing their names, with bitter hatred and spite. Even with the combined efforts of the whole world working together - Empire, Guilds and Aspio alike - there would be people who were angry.

And willing to use whatever they could to get back at the Empire and Guilds. Including Giganto monsters, apparently. Yuri shifts on his feet, sword at the ready as he watches the movements of the guards in the valley below. Somehow, this rogue group had managed to capture a Giganto to launch against Dahngrest and Zaphias. Whatever was the first target didn't matter.

Yuri and the rest of Brave Vesperia were here to stop it. And apparently, so was the Flynn brigade. He glances over at Flynn]

The Empire must be feeling really antsy about this if they've sent the Commandant himself to help deal with this group.

[A few years ago, there might have been barbed edges in there. But now, it was just warm amusement at the absurdity of it all. He should have known Flynn wouldn't be content to sit behind his desk while sending out his best knights to deal with this]

What were they calling themselves again?

Comments

[bravestknight]

[It was just about an hour later that Flynn appears at the guild head quarters and lets himself in. He takes a deep breath and lets it out slowly, he can smell the food and immediately he realizes how hungry he actually was. He calls out]

Yuri?

[guildtrips]

[Flynn gets a welcoming bark from Repede, who trots up faithfully to the front door as Yuri continues to finish dinner. Calling out from the small kitchen--]

In here--hope you don't mind some Beef Stew for dinner.

[Like Yuri didn't already know this was one of Flynn's favourites]

[bravestknight]

[Oh? Beef Stew. Flynn moves forward and smiles ruffling between his ears and moving with him towards the kitchen.]

I definitely don't mind Beef Stew for dinner.

[No one aside from them and Repede are there, so he quietly steps in close behind Yuri, wrapping his arms around his waist, lifting his hair with his right hand and kissing the side of his neck. He does that only for a few moments before he steps away.]

I told you I'd be here quickly.

[guildtrips]

[Yuri doesn't startle. He's far too aware of Flynn's presence at all times to be surprised by that. But despite every ounce of sense in him, he goes a little pink and shoots Flynn a tiny sulky look for escaping before he could take his revenge. Honestly]

Yeah, I know. You always keep your promises.

[He fetches a clean spoon from the drawers, dips it into the pot and holds it out for Flynn to try]

What do you think?

[bravestknight]

[Flynn leans over and takes the spoon into his mouth, humming as he leans back and swallows. He licks his lips and leans over to give Yuri a kiss on his cheek.]

It get's better every time you make it.

[guildtrips]

[why are you like this. Yuri recovers a little more easily this time and leans in to steal a kiss anyway. Honestly]

You're always like this. Go take a seat. I'm nearly done.

[bravestknight]

[Flynn smiles at him and moves to go settle down at the table.]

Sounds great. Are the others joining or did they go out and do other missions?

[guildtrips]

The boss will be down later. He's drowning in new recruit paper work. He said to save him a bowl.

[And Yuri was...just not very good at this kind of paperwork so he'll let the boss deal with that one. He pours some of the beef stew into three bowls, covering one up for later and he sets two of them down - one in front of Flynn and one just to the side of him. There's still some fresh bread so he sets that down with the food to share as well]

Judy is off on her own. She's probably going to make every casino cry and fold at this point.

[bravestknight]

Probably. They should know better than to let her come in and challenge, you would have thought they'd learn their lesson by now.

[Flynn goes about separating the bread for them to share and making sure to leave some for Karol. He smiled at Yuri and nodded as he relaxed and waited for Yuri to sit down before starting to eat.]

So, does that mean we have fewer people to hear us?

[guildtrips]

No one said they were smart.

[His gaze becomes a little heated as he meets Flynn's gaze. Yuri grins, dipping the bread into the stew as he takes a bite. ]

Hm. Are you planning on getting loud for me?

[bravestknight]

True. But you think they'd be money motivated at least.

[When Yuri asks that, Flynn had been taking a bite of stew, and he nearly chokes, coughing. His cheeks flush and he looks at Yuri.]

I think you want to kill me.

[guildtrips]

[ Hah. Yuri grins, leaning forward to rest his cheek against his palm]

I thought we were just sharing things we planned on after dinner.

[bravestknight]

I don't mind, just not when I'm taking a bite of soup.

[Flynn clears his throat again and turns giving Yuri a small smile. He reaches out and cups his cheek.]

Are you sure you're going to make me be that loud?

[guildtrips]

[Yuri leans into Flynn's hand, smiling at him. It's tempting to bite. Maybe after dinner]

What? Are you challenging me now?

[bravestknight]

We shouldn't. I don't want Karol to end up scarred at such a young age.

[Flynn is trying to be responsible here. There is a small smile on his face when he turns and presses a kiss to Yuri's cheek, happy to have time with him. Sex isn't everything between them, but it's nice when they can just exist together.]

[guildtrips]

Hah. That would be pretty tragic.

[Yeah, Yuri doesn't want Karol to be scarred either. The rooms were pretty soundproof. He hadn't heard Karol's sleeptalking at all, but...

Just in case. There are some questions he doesn't want to answer.

He bumps Flynn's legs gently with his own, and grins]

Then we'll just have to keep it a little quiet after all.

[bravestknight]

Yes, I don't want to scare him or making him dread seeing me when I come to visit.

[Both valid points. Even though Flynn is sure Karol has been treated well here, he doesn't know what he's been exposed to by who and also, as the leader of Yuri's guild, he wants to be respectful of his space.]

Definitely not a problem to make sure we keep our voices down.

[When Yuri's leg bumps his, he presses his back against Yuri's the weight comforting and heavy.]

[guildtrips]

Hah-

[Yuri grins at the mental image. ]

I guess we'll behave. For once.

[Also Repede would probably be much happier too. Yuri finishes his stew, leaving his leg where it was to get enough of Flynn's touch. It's nice.]

[bravestknight]

Even when we try to behave it doesn't really work out too well.

[Flynn points out kindly as he quietly starts to enjoy his soup. He savors the taste and just takes his time, after all, it's not like he has a lot of chances to be able to enjoy food with Yuri or his cooking these days.]

You know, I miss this.

[guildtrips]

[Well. They were troublemakers for a reason. Yuri glances over, idly pushing around the remains of his stew. He's warm, satisfied and content]

Having dinner together?

[bravestknight]

Yes, among other things. Mostly your company.

[He quietly continues to eat until the bowl is empty. He feels warm, and content himself, the fatigue of the day starting to catch up to him.]

[guildtrips]

Bath? Then bed?

[Flynn is such a sap. It doesn't stop Yuri from leaning in to nuzzle at Flynn's neck to coax him along though]

[bravestknight]

Gods, a bath does sound--

[Flynn chuckles and turns to kiss Yuri's forehead, nuzzling him gently back.]

You're distracting.

[guildtrips]

[He grins against Flynn's neck]

Yeah? Can't help it. I'm full of good ideas.

[Tugging Flynn up and towards the baths then!]

[bravestknight]

--Ah! Yuri, the dishes.

[Flynn doesn't fight him, however, and he just lets Yuri lead him to the baths. They could clean up later, really they could! Hopefully!]
