Kent/Feldspar
"Just once more," they had said when Ellie's team petitioned for it. She was busy with Palmer, falling in love with science while he fell in love with God, and Kent was left to pick up the pieces. He wanted another damn go at it. The Machine had a pricetag in the billions; it was begging to be used again.
But they wouldn't let Ellie go. They wouldn't let just anyone go. They wanted someone who knew how it worked, who had been there from the beginning, but someone who isn't completely taken in by Ellie's words.
That leads them to a dozen people and they end up with Kent. He's blind, but that's not what decides it. They claim that he wouldn't hallucinate the way Ellie did. That he has a unique perspective.
And, he's already proven himself steady and loyal.
He experiences it all the way that Ellie does, but something goes wrong on the other end. Maybe another terrorist attack. Maybe not. All he knows is that he's in the sphere and then, suddenly, he's floating, unable to find his footing until a great crash and he slams into the bottom of the machine.
He groans, pulling his helmet on with a grunt and a wince.
"Fuck this," he mutters, finding the edge of the sphere with his hands. There was a door there somewhere. He just - has to find it.

Kent keeps one hand around theirs, guiding less and less, and the other hand goes up to the back of their neck to hold them still.
"Hey, you're supposed to kiss me, flyboy," he mutters.
no subject
Their hand still moves, albeit awkwardly as they try to also kiss him. For someone so coordinated when they fly they sure are fumbling at this.
no subject
"Pretty, huh?" He raises up agaist them again. "Then let me steer."
He tightens his grip slightly, trying to take over from Feldspar so they can focus on kissing.

He feels himself building, heat growing in his belly as the world seems to tilt underneath him.
It's been - a very long time since he's done anything like this. It won't take much.
He bites the inside of his cheek and then draws them closer, kissing them to bite back the groan as he reaches his peak, spilling himself between them.

He buries his face in the crook of their neck, feeling strangely soothed by the scent of him.
Only once he gets his breath back does he speak. "Okay. Now it's your goddamn turn."
no subject
“Ah…okay…” they laugh, sitting back on the bed to give Kent just a little room to move.
no subject
He cleans his hand on a towel he keeps nearby and pushes himself up, shedding his trousers completely.
"Alright, there. More hair," he laughs and places his hands on either side of their shoulders.
no subject
“I like the hair,” they tell him. “It’s like the patterns we have. Our scales.”
Which aren’t really scales, more like birthmarks, but a name is a name.
no subject
"They don't feel like scales," he mutters, leaning forward to kiss them. "But alright. And so if I keep moving my hands down, what am I going to find?"
He does just that, trailing his fingertips lightly along their skin.
no subject
“Um…well, for starters I’ve got a penis, sorta. We don’t really have a scientific name for it or anything, we just call it a sex. It’s shaped differently than yours though - I mean, you’ll feel for yourself, and underneath there’s an opening for the…fertilization.” Stars. This feels like trying to tell hatchlings about mating.
“Here, help me out of these clothes, I’ll let you feel for yourself.”
“
no subject
But he doesn't mind it now. It - suits them, strangely enough. To take it slowly, to kiss and immediately launch into a way to explore each other.
no subject
They sigh quietly, hips wriggling to try to get the pants down. Once they're on the floor they shiver - it's a lot, being naked and in the bed with their best friend, never mind the biology part.
no subject
"We don't have to go any farther."
no subject
Feldspar brings their hands back up to Kent's head, kissing him slowly. "You really mean a lot to me," they murmur against his lips. "This means a lot."
no subject

But he continues to trail his hands down to their hips, between their legs.
no subject
no subject
"Ah, I see." He slides his fingers along from base to tip, exploring the opening in the back. "And all of this is an erogenous zone?"
no subject
Oof, it's hard to concentrate. They suck in their breath sharply.
"When we're hormonal and wanting someone to help us...yeah." Make a hatchling. Whatever. They just want Kent to keep touching them like that. "But it all feels good all the time."
no subject
"Lay down, then," he mutters. "Or you'll fall off the goddamn bed."
no subject
Oh, oh damn.
This is waaaaaay better than all the other fumbles in the dark they’ve had. They whine and gasp, hips raising to Kent’s hand.
no subject
Kent leans down, pressing kisses to their stomach and thighs, running his tongue along that length, exploring it as he brushes his fingers against the small slit against it.
"I really only have experience with one part," he murmurs.
