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.

“Yeah, good idea. I told Lapis we need to talk to Slate and Hornfels. Between the three of you you’ll be able to stabilize the power supply.”
no subject
"I'll talk to them about it later. Does Lapis know where the power is stored?"
He turns to face them, burying his face against their chest. It's been a long time since he's felt...useful. Like he has a project.

Feldspar wraps their arms around Kent, rubbing his shoulders softly.

Kent breathes them in and kisses their face.
"Once more and then we go back out and find out?" he suggests.

"Maybe you are," he teases, but he knows it's the truth, even as he shudders.
"I don't want to forget how this feels."
no subject
“Hey. I’m not going anywhere, Kent.”
no subject
"I know. I know that." He kisses them and sits up, stroking a hand along their chest. "And neither am I. But there was a while when I forgot and - I don't want to do that again."
no subject
They sigh and drop their hands to Kent’s chest and down to his stomach, admiring him and the softness underneath their hands. “It’s easy to forget,” they murmur.
no subject
He straddles their hips. "Can I tell you what I've been wanting?" he mutters, stroking his face again with soft fingers.
no subject
“Mhm.” They turn to take his thumb into his mouth.
no subject
He presses his thumb against their tongue. "Holding onto this big headboard while you put my cock in your mouth."

They don’t even skip a beat.
no subject
He groans, an absolutely obscene noise that lasts for a long while as he leans forward against the headboard. "Fuck," he mutters, resisting the urge, for the moment, to just hold their head and fuck their mouth.
Once upon a time, maybe. But they're no longer young.

That tongue. That tongue. He closes his eyes tightly, reaching down to place a hand on Feldspar's. "I love you," he breathes. "I love you so much. That's...so good."

Kent uses the headboard to stabilize himself as he slowly starts to rock his hips against his lover's mouth, inside of him with a shiver.
"So good, baby...so good."
no subject
Their hands move to Kent’s ass and grab two palms full, massaging his muscles slowly and then pulling him forward, urging his cock in deeper and faster.

Just hearing him moan - they remember what it was like when they believed they were the best, and maybe they still are at this.
