LAS VEGAS ♔ DON'T THREATEN ME WITH A GOOD TIME

One of The Drunks - Panic! At The Disco

WHO || Kenzi, Paige, Bo, Groot, Rocket, You? ~~Gatecrashers~~ Others welcome.
WHAT || Vegas Baby!
WHERE || Pandora in Vegas, Nevada.
WHEN || March, 2018
HOW || Action Spam.

[ Kenzi had threatened Paige with a ladies night and of course, if anyone needed a night out it was Bo. The fact that there's also a talking Tree, a drinking Raccoon and... Drax? It's Kenzi. Why is anyone shocked by the people that she spends time with? She has ideas and they spin out of control and you just sort of hang on for the ride. It's her way. She may have casually mentioned they were coming here to a few other people, so if you happen to show up as well? The more the merrier.

The location itself isn't exactly filled with the garish glitz and glamor that a person generally associates with Vegas. Pandora has a British Pub meets modern day speakeasy feel to it. It's known for its signature cocktails with names like Panty Dropper and the Hot Little Mess and you can always count on live entertainment in the form of dancers, magicians, a band and of course, a DJ. It also happens to be one of the few clubs that has an open door policy where Shadowkind are concerned. Whether they'll be rethinking said policy after tonight? We just don't know. ]

I mean, maybe if we ever wanted to have feeling in our legs again. [ he sounds like he could take it or leave it tbh ]

Walking is overrated. [ Her chin drops and she draws his hand to her mouth to press a kiss to his palm, wriggling in bed as she tries to eradicate even a whisper of air between them. ]

Not sure I can wait for the Milano to get here to do this again.

Ohh, we are so christening every inch of that ship when it does. [ his head rolls to the side to look at her, the smirk on his face etched in place as his eyes slowly trace over her features ] I'll tell Coulson to put a rush order on it.

Well in that case... [ She turns her head to look at him better and almost loses her train of thought. A smile playing at the corners of her mouth as she catches him drinking her in. ] I hope it's a really big ship.

[ his hand moves up to cup her face and he draws her into a simple, sweet kiss before mumbling against her: ] She's versatile.

[ She breathes him in, smiling into that kiss as his lips meet hers. A flurry of fuzzy feelings wriggling through her chest as she unconsciously turns into him. ]

So am I. [ Her smile widening as her hand slips behind his neck and she gently nuzzles against him. ]

[ his arm moves back to envelop her, holding her close and resting his lips against her temple ] ... Yes you are. [ s-so impressed ] I think you're turning me into an addict.

[ He'd feel the way she relaxes even more once he has her securely held in his arms, her thumb gently stroking his jaw as her warm breath fans out across his face. ]

Good. [ Smiling against him. ] That means my evil plan is working.

If you're gonna reveal yourself to be a supervillain, it better involve some kind of really skintight leather number.

And whips. [ Scraping her teeth against his skin before pulling back just enough so he can see the bright smile that lights up her features. ] I'm pretty hooked myself.

[ that earns a huge grin from him as well, echoing her own ] Yeah? [ he's so proud of himself ] I mean... I've heard I have that effect on people. [ this boast is pretty clearly paper thin tbh ]

[ She shakes her head but it's amusement rather than a roll of her eyes that greets him. ] Must be your impressive cock. [ Dipping in to steal a kiss from his lips before he gets a chance to respond.

Sure. That's why she's hooked. His cock makes her have heart-eyes. ]

I mean... I'm sure that doesn't hurt. [ lmao he's gonna earn an eye roll one way or another ]

I consider it an added bonus. [ She'll let him have that after he made her have how many orgasms? ] I'm pretty partial to the rest of you, though.

If I didn't know any better, I'd think you were talking about more than just these dashing good looks.

[ Who gave you permission to call her out?

Her gaze falls away, her mouth twisting with the smile that's pushing and falling from her lips and when she lifts her gaze he'd feel her shoulders lift in a shrug. ]

Maybe I am.

[ she can still feel him watching her closely, even without looking back at him ]

... Wouldn't be such a bad thing, would it?

[ Her gaze shifts to where her hand rests against his neck, trailing up to where her thumb lightly strokes his jaw and she allows that question to roll around in her head. Allows herself to feel those things she's been trying to ignore, minimize or dismiss before lifting her gaze to meet his once more.

A smile spills across her lips, tentative at first but as her touch grows firmer, it does too. He'd see it, the way she works to banish the very fears they'd acknowledged in their own way and as she does there's a warmth that grows in her eyes. An open fondness that answers his question before she can give voice to her words. ]

No, it's not.

[ little does she know he was also talking to himself in that moment

shocking, truly

it'd be easy for him to just kiss her again to smother the moment and not have to face up to all of this, but he manages to avoid the urge and just holds her gaze, letting her fight through it all, the tiniest smile ghosting the edge of his lips ]

... Good.

I mean, I know you like me because I'm a scoundrel, but just like Han, my secret? Is I'm not that bad. [ and it's clear now that it's important to him that she doesn't just write him off the way she used to, especially now that he's let her see the most vulnerable sides of himself. not to mention the side that desperately wants to play the hero and not just be some pirate/thief/player in her eyes. ]

[ What he doesn't realize is, it's not the man she thinks he is or isn't that scares her now. She doesn't have to erase any doubts she has about him to push forward. He's done that for her just by being himself these last two days. By letting the mask slip and sharing that secret with her when they've laid in each others arms. It's herself that she needs to battle with. The half of her that wants to protect herself and doesn't know how to trust, facing down the half that looks at him and wants nothing more than to find that trust and put it all in him. ]

I know.

[ Her hand slips from his neck, fingertips trailing along his hairline and as her eyes flutter closed, she leans in to brush her nose against the edge of his as a feeling of certainty washes over her. All those fears and uncertainties shoved so far down that she can almost forget what she was so scared about in the first place. (Will Save Nat 20). ]

You make me grin like an idiot and laugh like the world isn't facing an apocalypse. You wanted to fight for me, even though my step-dad isn't even this side of the veil and I think if you could find a way to reach him just to punch him in the face... you would. You get this look in your eyes when you talk about Space and it makes me wish I could see all the things that you have, just so I could experience anything that could make me that excited.

[ Her touch grows firmer now and she seems to press closer to him as if to offer comfort to go with these next words. ]

And then the way you look when you talk about your Mom... How much you love her. That even after all these years she is still the most important person in your life. You went to check on the girl who threw rocks at a giant Scorpion and even though, she was a total bitch to you... you still tried to convince her that she wasn't useless. You are brave, far braver than you think and you care more than you want people to realize... but I do...

I noticed you because you seemed like a scoundrel... I like you because of who you really are.

[ no doubt she's noticed this by now whenever she says something that really cuts to the core of who he is, but he's not used to this. not used to anyone complimenting on him on the person that he really is, and while he can get off on being praised for his sexual prowess, there's a voice in his head that wants to reject all these things she's telling him. it's probably the whispered voice of yondu, even, convincing him that he's not worth much of anything on his own. his eyes drop a bit, but they find their way back to hers as his fingers brush across the skin of her arm ]

I hope you get how amazing you are too. Really.

I've never met anyone like you. On any planet. In any corner of space.

Nothing's ever made sense to me the way you do.

[ Neither of them are particularly good with compliments, not when they're beyond the superficial and while her instinct is to scoff at those words, she can no longer dismiss him so easily, even if it's about her. Still, her own response mirrors his, the dipping of her gaze before she can look at him again. A tremulous smile working its way onto her lips as he gives voice to something she's been trying to process but not knowing how to explain it.

He makes sense.

Her hand turns and she lightly brushes her knuckles along the hollow of his cheek, her smile growing softer, steadier as she drinks him in. ]

I know exactly what you mean.

[ some day he'll stop staring at her. some day. he raises a hand to cover her own against his cheek, holding it there as he turns to kiss it tenderly, before he he grins and says: ] We should probably do that food thing.

[ It's soft and sweet and a stark contrast to the desperate passion they had shown each other not long ago. But when it ends and those words pass his lips, she can't say she's not grateful to him for a reprieve from the intensity of their shared emotion. ]

Pizza, or is that a dirty word now? [ The bright smile that lights up her face, there for more reasons than simply a joke. ]

I think I've secured my place above pizza enough to not feel threatened.
