"You're my trash, though!" Nik retorted the moment Orion seemed done. "Look at this fucking--!" He swept an arm around the apartment a bit dramatically, only about half on purpose. "If I've been happier in this dump than I ever was in a mansion or a palace do you think prim proper Prince carries any weight with me??" He was.. legitimately offended Orion would even passively imply such a thing, to be honest.
"For fuck's sake, I was halfway prim and proper until I met you. Literally. You became the metric. And hell yes a lot's changed since then, and hell no I don't and can't look up to you anymore. But you're..." More pathetic laughter followed as he moved around in front of Orion. "We've both changed so much and yet..." He almost slumped forward, not quite touching Orion but coming very close, blue eyes locking on yellow. "You are. still. so much the asshole I've always adored and in some ways even better."
Nik... wanted to climb into his lap and curl up but didn't feel he had the right just now. He settled instead for backing off enough to sit on his knees in the floor in front of Orion, a hand lightly resting on Orion's knee. "The fact that you're so much better isn't up for debate here. The only way you're gonna make a liar out of me is if I don't have an Orion to bet with..."

FFFFFFFF NIK. STOP YOU’RE MAKING HIM LAUGH YOU ASSHOLE. Half way to prim and proper until he met him hah. A terrible fucking metric. A sharp noise trying and failing to cover up that laugh. As Nik moved around in front of him, however, Orion stopped. Yellow eyes reflected blue ones. Lips pressed together, and parted only to sigh. As he moved back, however, Orion made no motion to move forward not even to sit forward.
Those final words earned a strange, dry huff of sorts before Orion reached up and pressed a thumb and index finger over his eyes. “Now how the fuck do you expect me to leave when you put it like that you dickbag,” he laughed a bit weakly. “As if you weren’t endearing enough.” Endearing enough, emotional enough, ridiculous enough. Enough in general. Ugh, he was getting a migraine from this; he could feel it. “I’m tired,” he grumbled weakly.

Nik weakly laughed in turn. "I really fucking try...?" That wasn't really meant to turn into a squeaky sob at the end but here he was breaking down into a few more sobs so okay.
"I'm..." really tired too. So very... very... Rather than express that in words, he got up and... kind of pushed Orion over enough to get him to lie down, then flopped over him lazily. "Nap time." He just... lay there like that briefly, trying to breathe, trying to relax, trying... to soak in the feeling of just being with his stupid idiot boyfriend.
Finally shifting to something a bit more comfortable for both of them, he awkwardly tried to explain another thought and hoped it... wouldn't lose its intent for its context. "Mia.. really should've ditched me about fifty times over now, you know..." At every stage of the way, for that matter. "But she never has, and... I know I don't deserve it, but it gives me... so much strength." A pause as he debated looking up to Orion's face, but decided against it. "Is it stupid if I just... really wanna be that for you?"

Nap time was a perfect time. Even with Nik laying on him and the couch being not as comfortable as a bed by default this was….Yellow eyes closed. If there was any merciful god in this world, he might have passed out right then, slept his feelings off, and awakened to a harmonious state where he didn’t need to punch the shit out of others. As minutes passed, however, Orion was very aware that apparently not was the answer he was getting in response.
As Nik shifted, Orion grumbled a little and opened one eye again. The words that came had him frowning. Arms shifted a little before folding comfortably around Nik. Orion gulped in some air slowly. “Yeah, it is—“ he answered. “But it’s also nice, Nik….” It came as a sigh, something dry, tired, but earnest enough. He wanted to sift his fingers up through Nik’s hair but resigned not to. “I don’t want to break up,” the words came out unexpectedly, and Orion paused unsure of what else he was going to say.
“I’m just …scared.” Scared of what? The fuck, brain? What are you scared of? You punched a fucking Salamence the other day. “I don’t want to mess you up— any more than I already have,” He half laughed very briefly. “But I don’t—“ Ugh. “I … feel loyal to Marce. I…. don’t just want to … ugh. Even when it’s shit like actually working he ranches and playing with the Pokemon it’s… it’s stupidly nice.”

He was... so relieved, and so conflicted, and so concerned. I'm the one who told you to GET a job where you could do stupid nice shit, jackass... he thought rather bitterly, but wouldn't say that. Orion was the one who went searching, and Marceline was the one who took him in-- and apparently did everything Nik couldn't. That sense of nausea was rising again.
"Do you... not feel loyal to me...?" He... hoped that was more rhetorical than really questioning. "Isn't... Won't building a home together.. be nice...?" Nik... slowly shifted, pushing himself up to gently kiss Orion's cheek, then nuzzle more against his neck. "If working for her makes you happy and she'll help keep you safe, great. I'm not asking you to leave that, I just..." He breathed out slowly. "Want to know you want to be with me at least as much..." More would.. be really nice, but he could settle for a tie.
"And... to feel trusted and included in your life. Is that... okay...? Can I have that?"

Oh, that was… that was nice. Lips on his skin, Nik’s face in his neck. His hands shifted a bit of their own accord starting to feel through the tendrils of Nik’s hair. Those words too sounded so nice. He wanted to… decorate a house and knit and sew and have Auntie over more and… probably sit and knit and sew with her too but yeah. Nik’s words… relaxed him greatly. Want to be with me at least as much. Heh, could do that. He’d been dealing with that. And to feel trusted and included in your life.
Orion shifted a little pulling Nik up some and sliding down some so that they were at eye level. He leaned forward a little their lips very close now. “I want to live with you… I want to spend time with you. I want to protect you and I…” He stopped as a thought occurred to him, and his head flopped back again on the couch. “I’m… sorry I’ve… I was… acting like it’s… just my life… I … I want it to be ours.”

He... Yes??? Yes that had been... exactly the entire... Dammit he was almost mad about this? Why did Orion not get that ten minutes ago? (Or weeks or months ago?? Ahahahaha.)
He was saying it now though. "Good. Please," was all Nik managed to whimper before being overwhelmed by his own feelings and pressing his lips firmly against Orion's. That... that wasn't enough. Another kiss quickly followed, and another, and a steady stream of them, occasionally placed elsewhere on Orion's face. Slowly, the ones on his lips began to linger longer.
"I love you..." he finally murmured softly between kisses. "You are.. so impossibly frustrating and I am..." Another lingering kiss. "So stupidly in love with you." As much as the reckless abandon made Nik want to scream, and even if he still had his doubts on whether Orion would really be entirely honest from here on, just... The man who could appreciate occasional grim humor with him even in an argument this heated, who fought with... such an unquenchable passion for everything he cared about even in the face of constant exhaustion, who... A stupid giggle briefly formed in the back of Nik's throat. The idiot who made vines beating up the woods to avenge him. For all his faults, the dork whose sense of humor meshed with his so easily and who could make him feel so safe even a minute after such a volatile fight was.. This was worth fighting for... right?
"I wanna spend my life with you..." Another thought passed through his head and briefly startled him. Hadn't he just...? Ha... That was... very clearly a passing impulse of this lovedrunk moment, but... still probably something he should keep in mind now, huh...

Those words and that steady stream of kisses had him groaning a little at each. Ugh he loved… this and he loved him, and ugh. The more they kissed the hungrier Orion got for those lips. His hands shifted, one reaching to clasp the back of Nik’s head and the other pressing into his back a bit more, edging him closer as if that were possible. Impossibly frustrating and yet loved. It felt great.
Orion shifted up a little kissing Nik hard for a second. “I love you,” he answered back. Shifting to kiss his jawline then his neck, he adjusted them a bit. “When we get our house, I’m going to have that kitchen running all the time,” he almost purred nibbling his neck. “All kinds of foods and sweets and..” He nipped his neck briefly. “Delicacies.”

A trembling whimper came out of Nik as Orion nibbled at him, then a light gasp at that more pronounced nip. "Mmmmmmmm, sounds delicious, babe, but..." ...Were they past everything enough for this? ... Did he care? Not really. It felt nice in this moment, and he was gonna go with it. They could get serious again to deal with finer details later.
For now, he lightly nipped at Orion's ear in turn. "You're gonna have to be sure to clean up often, because..." His voice got a little lower in both tone and volume. "I intend to enjoy you on every available surface...~ Nothing's safe, you've been warned." Some stuff may have actually been pretty safe and sounded way more awkward or uncomfortable than it was worth at least in theory, but he was chuckling too much to sweat the semantics right now.
"Speeeeaking of..." His hands started to run down Orion's body. "That was a preeetty nasty fight, huh? I feel like we've definitely warranted some mak--"
His phone rang, now of all times. Nik's face fell to something almost flat, but leaning just slightly toward annoyed, and he huffed. "That's probably some League bigwig so just... gimme a sec to play damage control or get them to call back, okay?" He was already reluctantly getting up as he spoke, and pulled out his phone. ..A Faraday number, huh? Maybe it was someone at the lab or a more obscure League person then. "Yo," he unceremoniously answered.
It was not the League, and horror slowly washed over Nik. "Yes? ..... Wh- ... WHAT? .... Is she-- .... Are you sure? .... Fuck. I mean yes. Yeah no I'm-- I'll be right there. ... Yeah." He hung up the phone, hissing, "Fuck." Which was the last thing he was going to be doing now but ya know.
"A-fucking-pparently Dasha decided one twin in the hospital wasn't enough for one month." That... Humor was his coping mechanism okay. Why did he still feel bad about it? Ugh. "I've gotta go. You coming or should I call you later?"

Hhhhhhhhhhh. “Can do will do— do you,” Orion breathed back. “Or do me.” He flashed a cheesy grin and had already been about to pull Nik’s shirt up and off when his phone rang. FFFFFFF???? Phone really? Hhhhhh ugh. Orion made a face. As Nik explained why he had to answer it, Orion deflated dramatically on the couch. “Alright~ Make it quick~” he teased.
The way in which Nik’s features changed, however, had Orion sitting up. The questions, exclamations, everything, was enough to make him feel anxious. I’ll be right there… Yeah “What—“ Orion snorted a little at Nik’s singular swear up until he actually explained what was… going on. PFFFFF. “She’s— You’re going?“ Well, obviously. That made sense considering but uh… Orion grimaced a little. “Ehhh hospitals aren’t… my thing and I don’t think she’d be as happy to see me as you. Call me later.”

Ah, yeah that made sense and that was fair. Nik had specifically told him he didn't need to come see him last week for that very reason, after all. He just... really wanted to stay with him right now, heh.
That bit about 'not as happy to see me' earned a grin. "I'd damn sure hope she wouldn't. Your hot shady boss is one thing, but my twin sister? That's a whole different level of shame man." He quietly laughed, then moved back over to the couch and threw himself into Orion's lap, wrapping his arms around him and kissing him several more times. "I really am sorry this came up, babe. Remind me I owe you, okay? Or you owe me." He kissed him again, lingered just a bit longer in the goodbye, and brought Lucy back out to teleport to the hospital.
Dasha's boss hadn't said where she was, only which hospital, so they appeared in the lobby, and Nik took a place in line behind--....wait.
"--just need an exam for any internal injuries," one of the two men in front of him was saying. "He was attacked directly by a Lycanroc this morning."
...Nik was rapidly turning ar--
"Nikolai!?" He cringed and stopped cold at the familiar voice.
Turning back around slowly he tried to put on a casual grin. "...Heeeey Dr. Scardee."
"What the hell happened?"
