Devero waits, watching hopefully in the dim light but not pressing Seb at all. He knows there's a chance he's misread the warmth in the air between them-- knows also that even if he hasn't misread it, that it might not be acceptable around here, or something Seb has an issue with personally, or--

But then Seb reaches out for him, and says okay, and Devero smiles brilliantly at him. "Okay!" he repeats, then covers Seb's hand with his own. He gives it a tug, inviting him closer. "Come here."

Again Devero waits, giving him a moment even as he enjoys the increased proximity. He likes the way Seb fits in his arms, likes the disparity in their sizes-- not as a power thing, but just because he appreciates how they complement.

Close as they are, of course, he can't miss the nerves Seb is showing, the way his breathing seems to be getting choppy. He strokes his big hand down Seb's side, then up his back, smiling and steady. He wants to reassure him that this is okay, that they're alone here and safe, but this close together he can't easily sign. So he just tilts his head down to close the distance, and catches Seb's lips gently with his own.

Oh, hello. Devero willingly matches Seb's energy, groaning loud and unselfconscious approval as their mouths come together the second time. He lets Seb lead the kiss, his mouth open and hot and receptive, and rolls his hips more-than-suggestively against Seb's as the other man draws him closer. He can feel himself already starting to flush under his fatigues, and slings one leg shameless up over Seb's hips to let him feel it too.

subcircuits: (for fuck's sake)
Grown up as he has in a culture that encourages normative sexual expression and experimentation, Devero's never been burdened with the shame and repression that plagues so many of these these outsider communities. His sexuality has always been open and generous; partners have always been easy to find. Any sexual frustration he's ever felt has been temporary, localized. So when Seb explores into his mouth with that heated, nipping aggression, Devero flirts his tongue encouragingly against him, inviting him deeper. When Seb's hands roam his body, he writhes under them, willing the other man to explore his physique.

And when Seb grinds his eagerness against Devero like that, there is nothing soft about his appreciative moan. He hooks his leg around both of Seb's and, without warning, rolls them, so that that smaller man is sprawled out on top of him. He skims both hands down to Seb's ass and grinds them together again, his own length now well swollen where it's trapped in his pants.

Vices take him, they are hurtling rapidly towards a point of no return here, aren't they? It's been a long time since Devero felt such raw, primal attraction to someone else that he actually has to grip Seb's hips and stop him. If he keeps grinding on him like that, Devero might not make it that much longer and he doesn't want this to end abruptly just because he's blown his load early like a teenager.

"Lube?" he blurts immediately, one hand moving in response to Seb's question while the other drags up his body to touch his cheek, his jaw, the corner of his mouth.

Oh yeah, he's tracing the curve of Seb's lip and then sliding his thumb past it. But it's not that little intimacy that makes his cock twitch in his trousers-- no, it's the way Seb's leaned into his palm just before, actually. He trembles on the ground beneath him as he reads Seb's admission off his Interface.

Some of the hot hunger banks inside him as he realizes he needs to be careful here. He nods, and-- regrettably, needing to take his hand back-- says, "Thanks for telling me that."

He shifts them again, drawing away from the edge of the gully and sitting up under Seb. He makes sure to keep the other man right in his lap as he does so, though, not wanting to relinquish a bit of their closeness. With his arms actually around the other man, he asks, "How far do you want to go?"

Close as they are, it's easy for Devero to lean his face down, touching his forehead to Seb's and wrapping both arms around him. For a moment he just holds him, heart racing with the thrill of having him close like this. It would have been one thing if they'd gone off together after Devero's peacocking in the bar-- still fun, sure, but more typical, more casual. Up here, after what they've shared on the walk and while they smoked, everything feels more... significant, and he doesn't want to ruin that.

He leans back from Seb a little, catching the other man's face between both of his hands and planting a kiss on his lips. "I really do," he says after, hoping that his lips and the close heat between them relays the sincerity that he knows his artificial voice sometimes lacks.

"But let's do it safe and comfortable, yeah?" Especially if Seb's never slept with another man before, Devero doesn't want his first time to be rawdogging in the desert dirt. "You have somewhere we can go, or should we sneak into my quarters?"

"Perfect," Devero says, even as his lids draw heavy over his eyes and he groans in pure anticipation. Then he lets his head fall back and says, his arms still moving around Seb, "Fuck, I guess this means we have to get up, though, doesn't it?"

Of course they do. Devero releases Seb, pushing gently at him to shoo the other man up off his lap, and clambers up after him. Grinning crookedly, he adjusts himself in his pants, pushing his impatient self into a more manageable configuration for walking, then holds his hand out for Seb's. "Shall we?"

The one last essential comes into the room in one the cargo pockets of Devero's fatigues: lube. The last thing he'd wanted to do was prolong this interruption in their tryst, but Seb's look had been so blank when Devero had checked if he had any that Dev knew he had to be responsible party regarding this part. Thankfully, all he'd had to do was pop into his quarters in their hotel 'barracks' on the way through town and grab the tube he'd packed just in case he happened to get lucky. (Sure, he'd assumed that if he got lucky it was probably going to be with a squad-mate or a civ on the delegation, not a local, but he was prepared either way.)

The motel room may be shitty, but Devero only has eyes for Sebastian as the door closes behind them. "Finally," he says, tongue tracing his teeth hungrily. "Come here," he says, and reaches out to grab Seb and pull him in for a kiss.

Steered by Seb, Devero stumbles backwards into the bed, impacting with just enough momentum to topple backwards onto it. He pulls Seb down with him, dragging the smaller man back on top of his body with a grunt. He breaks the kiss, but only to explore Seb's face further with his lips and tongue. He brushes kisses across Seb's chin and cheek, breathes hot into his ear, finds his earlobe and gives it a nibble. His hands seek down the plane of Seb's back, grabbing for the hem of his shirt and pulling it up.

Devero's hard again already, thick and trapped in his pants, but his attention is so focused on exploring his evening's companion that he almost doesn't care.

Maybe he can't hear that moan, but Devero's Interface gives a little haptic tap against his temple to indicate it, and it makes him grin. It's hard for him to keep his hands off Seb while the man disrobes, but at least the view is nice. His eyes light up at the sight of the blackwork on Seb's arm, attention-stealing enough that any other discrepancies go unnoticed. So what if he's pale? He's lean and sculpted in a way that Devero appreciates, and he's got ink!

Devero helps Seb undress him, eager to get his own arms out of his fatigue jacket and reveal his own blackwork. Seb's already seen the circuits on his forearm, but the design is now revealed to go all the way up to his shoulder. There's some on his abdomen, too, the lines crossing from his pec to his flank before disappearing around to his back.

"I like your ink here," he says, settling down after shucking off his undershirt as well and skimming his palm along Seb's arm.

Ironically, there's something similar going on with Devero's circuits, though much less formalized. He'd gotten his first circuits along with his first set of Implants, the ones in his arms and hands that facilitated the GSL translation provided by his Interface. With each subsequent hardware install or upgrade, more circuits. Not every hitek got tattoos like these to commemorate expanding their system, but it was pretty common.

His smile up at Seb turns goofy at the compliment. "Thanks," he says. "I work hard at it." He has no compunction about being admired, even squirming a little under Seb's touch while he's explored.

The assault on his neck makes him arch under Seb, gasping and moaning outrageously. One of his big hands come up to cradle Seb's neck, making it clear that he does not disapprove. His other spreads across Seb's back, fingers sneaking under the waistband of his pants to grope his ass much more directly than he had up on that ridge.
