openmisc | 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.

Feldspar laughs as Kent falls onto the bed beside them, quieter now, and actually a fair amount tuckered out. “Mmhm. You can take a nap and I won’t bother you.”

They turn onto their side and their head finds its way onto his shoulder.

Kent wraps an arm around them, breathing them in, listening to the sound of the hatchling murmuring in their sleep. "You can wake me up any time you need to," he murmurs.

They smile against Kent’s warm skin. “You don’t want to promise that.” Because they will.

They quiet and fall asleep quickly, wiped out for the time being.

He means it, too. But it's not Feldspar who wakes him up; it's Lapis.

He automatically sits up, rubbing his face. "They slept in," he murmurs.

Feldspar sits up groggily too, extending their arm out to force Kent to lie back down. The bet was just a fun little game - in reality they only have so many more days that they can do this before they’ll be back in space and Kent will have to take over.

“I’ve got them. Go back to sleep.”

They pull on their trousers quickly and go to fetch the little hatchling to give them something to eat.

Kent turns over and lies back down, but he doesn't sleep. He just rests a while, listening to the sounds of the two people he loves the most in the other room.

He'll wait for Feldspar.

Feldspar talks to the hatchling, as they have with all the hatchlings that have wound up in their care. Their words are quieter though, softer and more affectionate, and when the hatchling’s belly is good and full they set them back down into the crib and slip back into bed.

"How's Lapis?" he mutters, holding them closer as he presses a kiss to their shoulder.

“Incredible,” Feldspar smiles, inching backwards into him. “A happy little hatchling. One of the happiest. You’re doing such a good job.”

From:

"We are," he corrects them. "Together."

He kisses their cheek and closes his eyes to settle against their shoulders again.

“Nah,” they smiles. “I’m just trying to keep up with you.”

They push their hips back against Kent’s, a little more insistently this time.

Kent groans a bit, but it's playful. He reaches down and grabs a handful of their ass, massaging it with his fingers. "Mm, and I was having a lovely dream."

From:

getfeldsparred

“Was I in it?” They push back into Kent’s hands, pausing to push their pants back down around their ankles and kick them out of the bed. “Tell me about it.”

From:

"Mm, you were. You took me up into orbit. Then you fucked me in the ship. Zero - G." He starts to kiss their neck, sliding his hand around to their length to take them into his palm.

Feldspar’s already hard just from that insistent nudging they were doing with their hips. They sigh quietly as Kent wraps their hand around them and buck gently against his palm.

“I could fuck you now,” they remind him, pushing back to grind against him.

From:

videointhenoise

"You could," he mutters, looping one leg around theirs.

From:

getfeldsparred

“Or you could fuck me, but I know you’re species needs some time to recover…” they hum, pushing back against his hips again, this time with a little more rhythm.

From:

"I don't need that long," he murmurs. "But I do want to get fucked. You're lucky I'm a very enthusiastic switch."

From:

getfeldsparred

“I’m lucky for a lot of different reasons.”

They turn over and grab Kent’s hips, pulling him flush against them. “You feel so nice. Can I fuck you like this? On your side?”

From:

videointhenoise

He nods. "I'd like that," he mutters, wiggling his hips back against them.

"I want it hard tonight."

From:

getfeldsparred

“Good.” Right now ‘hard’ is Feldspar’s only mode.

They sit up and handle Kent until he’s facing the wall, happily sliding up behind him so they can press their cock insistently against him. They grope to find the oil from the night before and slick Kent’s hole with a slow push of their finger.

“Nice and tight. You’re gonna feel so good.”

From:

videointhenoise

Kent places one hand on the wall and braces himself there, rocking back against Feldspar's finger desperately.. "Fuck," he moans, already hard, already needy. "I want you inside of me."

From:

getfeldsparred

“I know you do,” Feldspar says softly, kissing the back of his neck as they continue to fuck him slowly and deeply. They remove their smaller finger and replace it with their bigger one, humming against his skin as they enjoy him.
