Well i am an executive. [It’s not a denial because Chuuya knows he’s right: it’s doesn’t suit him, not really. He’s someone best suited for the heat of battle, acting and thinking on his feet. But it’s the job, and the job requires more than he’s suited for and sometimes things he didn’t enjoy.
Chuuya has a feeling Dazai is trying to distract him now, though. He scowls up at him, cheeks heating more at being called out.]
People get red in the face when they’re irritated too, asswipe. And you’re an expert at being an irritant.
(he's trying to distract both, to be honest. just removing the bandages is work in itself, both psychological and physical with the pressure change against wounds, and ah, chuuya. you're giving it to him too easily! there's even a hint of genuine on the corners of his empty smile.
don't think about the way the breeze hits his bare skin. look at chuuya.)
I decided that, for a limited time only, I like it. I'm going to be extra irritant from now on, until I'm normal irritant. I should bite them!
You’re biting people now? Always knew you were a dog.
[It’s said with an eye roll as he ties off the last stitch, nice and neat. A bit of medical cream follows, gently soothed over the cuts and hopefully dulling any pain left behind.]
I'm the one who won the bet, so you'll be forever the dog, regardless of what you call me.
(it's sore. it helps, even if he can't see it right now, being bitchy as he is. but, hey, he's almost done unwrapping the other arm, and he wants to postpone chuuya looking at it as much as he could-- so, a bite, to the red cheek.)
You cheated at that bet, you mean. I ain’t nobody’s dog!
[There are arguments to be made that Chuuya is as loyal as any dog, but he’ll get growly if that gets pointed out.
Not that Dazai biting his cheek gets a quiet reaction. The strangled noise chuuya makes is one part embarrassed, one part flustered, one part irritated. His cheeks only get redder.] Dazai!!
(the cheek is still between his teeth, although barely bitten, just there as his mouth moves awkwardly to get those words out.
there, the other arm is out. and it feels like he gained a few more minutes of chuuya not looking at it, even if dazai's cooperating as much as he can.)
(he can refuse to acknowledge all he wants. it does still happen, and it freezes dazai a little bit, now this time he's the one who's surprised, perhaps even the tiniest amount of blush on his cheeks.
acknowledge this or the scars? error. ERROR. 404.
here. he's shoving his other arm on chuuya's chest.)
[It sure does happen, and all of the whining and dog jokes Chuuya expected in response to the bite don't even come. Instead, Dazai is... Dazai is blushing, and poor Chuuya's brain is having a malfunction over the sight.
Fucking hell the last word he should be associating with Dazai is 'cute'!! Chuuya's face is turning bright red, and the only response he can manage is taking Dazai's arm with a sputter.] Yeah, and I would have won then, too!
(he did want both of them to be uncomfortable, so he didn't have to suffer alone, but now he's double uncomfortable, and chuuya is only once uncomfortable, life isn't fair, woe is him, die chuuya, fuck you, etc, the list of swears go on in his brain.
IT'S NOT FAIR!! here, have the arm, have everything, shut up, he has to pull through this and have a good nice revenge, he can't have this on the air like that.)
If you want to kiss me, Chuuya, you can just say so! I don't blame you! I'm very good at these things!
[Sometimes Dazai plans don't go as planned and things like This happen, because Chuuya is Chuuya and a storm of a human being in every way. Chuuya grabs for the medical alcohol and gauze again, snarling to cover up the fact that he feels like combusting from embarrassment.]
I bit you, I didn't kiss you! You sure you're not the one projecting here, mackerel?!
[He wets the gauze and finally looks down at Dazai's arm. At least they're both pretty off kilter now?]
(this is going to hurt like a thousand stings, he can sense it before the gauze even comes close, and what wouldn't he do to avoid this, postpone it, even if it will hurt more.
his eyes close, almost too tight, as he waits, such a damn baby, and he lets it out in one breath.)
[And without warning, Chuuya's swiping the medical alcohol soaked gauze over the cuts, carefully cleaning away any blood and dirt trapped in them. Dazai can hiss and whine, but this will get done, damn it.
Wait a second--] Wait-- What the fuck?!
[And now he's pausing as his brain finally processes what Dazai just babbled. With the alcohol soaked pad still on Dazai's arm, baffled and blushing.
Dazai should probably not distract him if he doesn't want this to hurt worse, unfortunately.]
(the eyes closed didn't help at all with withstanding the pain, they squeeze even further, his foot tapping upon first contact with the damn alcohol, it stings, it hurts, it's not comfortable, holy fuck, he's never been so uncomfortable in his life.
and then chuuya just keeps it there. it hurts even more with the liquid dripping into his cut, and he just sinks teeth on chuuya's shoulder, letting out a noise as if it's really The Worst Pain Ever Endured By A Human Being.)
Why are you so slow at this!!!! Let's give up!!! Let's just leave me to die!!!!! Ouch, ouch.
(muffled by the way his teeth are not letting go.)
Chuuya pauses, and Dazai bites him. How is that fair?! A sharp hiss of his own escapes Chuuya's lips, his shoulder jerking in response to the bite, grip tightening on Dazai's arm because why is he not letting go?!]
You big baby, stop biting me!!! And stop saying weird shit to distract me, it's only going to drag this out!!
[Let's just pretend all the talk of kissing and now biting is not doing weird things to Chuuya right now.]
but at least the bite is done by the time he thought chuuya was going to let his skin breathe, but he didn't!! god!! he hates you a million times, to the moon and back, and he just rests his forehead where he last sunk teeth in.)
[Fuck, Chuuya needs a moment to breath after that. He finishes cleaning as quickly as possible because the warmth of Dazai's forehead against his shoulder and that whining edge to his voice is doing weird things to Chuuya's gut after that bite, and he really, really needs to focus on something mundane or unsexy right now.
Once that's done, he'll toss the gauze aside and grab up the needle again.]
Gonna start stitching, just try to relax and stop whining.
I hope your aftercare is good. I'm very distressed.
(see, at least he got chuuya to stop this godawful torture. is this what kyoyou has been teaching him? the next one is gonna start up again, and he rubs his face against the muscle of the shoulder, right where it's sore.
just because this is gonna hurt like a bitch. see, this is why he doesn't like to look at it. there are so many stitch marks, so many little things, it sucks, it sucks so much.)
[And why. Why did he say that. Why does Dazai have to make this sound sexual when he's trying to concentrate, why does he have to rub up against him like a fucking cat in heat, he hates this!
He sets about stitching, trying to focus on his work rather than the warmth of Dazai against the lingering soreness of the bite, or that whiny tone of his voice that just makes Chuuya want to-- ugh.]
You've got enough alcohol in you to catch fire if I light a match, any drink you're getting after this is water or tea. Maybe juice, if you're a good boy.
(and yet, who's here, dealing with all your bullshit, dazai? he's thankful, he's just a piece of shit. he could do this alone, later, lonely, but as uncomfortable as it is, it does remind him he isn't all such, all the time.
it still feels vulnerable, and while that is not a completely unfamiliar look for both of them, with how their lives sit on the other's hands ever so often, with how this is not nearly the first time chuuya does this-- ah, he doesn't like it. so, his chin presses against the site of the bite, as to keep his head standing on the shoulder.)
[He's always dealing with Dazai's bullshit. At this point, Chuuya's an expert in handling the dramatics, he's just not so good at handling the... other bits.
There's a new awareness between them that Chuuya can't quite grapple nearly as easily as everything else, and even as he works on setting neat, small stitches to Dazai's cuts, there's a part of Chuuya that can't ignore the press of Dazai against his shoulder.]
What Dazai? Or do you just like whining my name on repeat?
(oh. chuuya didn't just ignore him. didn't just tell him to shut up, or yell at him real loudly. must be the concentration, but it does catch dazai's attention and it makes him back off a little bit.
it's with things like these that they don't talk. he doesn't have to. at this point, what result is he expecting? chuuya's eyes have already seen more than dazai would have liked, anyway. so, instead of being obnoxious, he'll sigh a little, resting his forehead on the crook of chuuya's neck with his eyes closed.
he doesn't have to actually say how much he hates that.)
[He lets out a sigh as he stitches, trying to focus but also aware this is Dazai looking for a distraction. Unfortunately, he's distracting Chuuya in a way he didn't intend, most likely.
Ugh, why is it always like this? Why can't he just ask.
Well, the reason why is obvious, of course.]
What do you want after this? Tell me. I'll do you one solid, as long as it isn't getting you more alcohol.
(chuuya, your bitch ass also can't ask. but it's... almost nice that he's asking. for a second, he's ignoring the pain, ignoring how much it stings to have the needle join his skin back together.
chuuya's stupid neck has his stupid scent and his stupid self is a stupid source of stupid safety.)
[They're both terrible at this shit, aren't they? But Chuuya lets out a huff of amusement at the simple request, some of that earlier tension dissipating. Dazai didn't even have to ask for that, geez.]
Deal. Once we're done here, I'll get you the smokes.
[And it won't take Chuuya long to finish, as long as he can focus on this. There's a lot more cuts on this arm, but Chuuya is quick and gentle, careful as ever when it comes to caring for Dazai's wounds. He starts chattering about his plans for tomorrow, a dish he wants to try cooking, some chores that need doing. It's idle and not particularly engaging, but hopefully something Dazai can listen to.]
