With the bribe of a nice dinner, Porthos had managed to get Aramis to come out appliance shopping with him, eager to find something for the house even though it's not going to be a while before they need to fill it with anything. Part of him is just pleased to poke around and see what they've got, admiring features he doesn't really need but sound wonderful to have. "Here," he says distractedly, but frowns when he hears Aramis' phone going off.

Athos wouldn't call them unless it's an emergency, but after their last few appointments at the agency (with lawyers and surrogates and contracts), he's been nervous every time he hears the phone ring. Stopping and freezing where he stands, gripping Aramis by the shoulder hard, his eyes widen in hope.

"Aramis, maybe it's...?" he trails off, not daring to truly believe.

Aramis smiles for that, soft and a little dopey as he leans in for another kiss. "It is a beautiful thought," he agrees, "And a reality I am honored to be a part of. Now." He pulls away lest he molest Porthos again. "Can't I do something? I've stood next to you for whole minutes now without any attempt to ravish you."
afineseamstress: (Interested.)

"I will do all three," Aramis decides, bringing his wine over to the potatoes. "Shall I choose something classical?" he asks, face twisted for the notion that the music they heard at court is now archaic. Timeless, more like. "There is a bit of music I like," he adds suddenly, "Named for a gun. I don't know why, there are no songs about revolvers on the album, but it is still enjoyable. By some people named for insects."

Aramis picks up his phone, fiddling about until he grins and turns the image of a black and white album cover to Porthos' eyes. "The Beatles, that's it. It's has a nice, strange sound to it, but not for tonight, I think."

He returns to his music application, rather deft at maneuvering it now after Allison's help, and connects it to the music amplifiers with the squiggly Bluetooth button. A moment later, Etta James lovely voice fills the air. "There."
afineseamstress: (Cheeky.)

That dopey smile returns to Aramis' face, and he drifts into the frame of Porthos' arms, swaying in time with the music. "This reminds me of our betrothal," he says, "And our wedding. Of that very first time we danced together, though it was not like this," he laughs softly, thinking of that prurient dance at the Teller union.

He nips Porthos' ear. "I like to think you are in the mood at the mere sight of me."
afineseamstress: (Noticing.)

"That was when I first realized I could marry you," Aramis tells him, moved to press in for a soft, lingering kiss. "That we could have a life just like the Tellers, with a family and all of it. And," he notes, "That we could dance as filthily as we liked on the dancefloor and no one would bat an eye."
afineseamstress: (Listening closely.)

"Only the special ones," says Aramis with a wink, "Though I did not know the meaning of the word until I had you in my bed." He blinks as his back meets the counter, and he turns a disappointed gaze on Porthos. "I liked dancing. We ought to do it more."
afineseamstress: (Truth tea.)

"Another means by which to romance Athos," Aramis notes, turning reluctantly to the potatoes. "I know you prefer it when he slices these," he tells Porthos. "I don't know why." He cuts three uniform slices. "My work is perfect."
afineseamstress: (Shade.)

"And what are my hands?" asks Aramis. He rarely grows jealous of Athos, but his fingers are quite deft, or can any man load a musket as quickly and cleanly as he can? "Do I have horrible sausages for fingers now?"
afineseamstress: (Eh.)

[personal profile] afineseamstress 2015-10-03 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
"Precise enough around your cock," Aramis murmurs, cutting precisely now even with Porthos kneading at his shoulders. "And his are elegant, too." He sighs as if greatly put upon. "We are all ridiculously handsome men."
afineseamstress: (Actually.)

[personal profile] afineseamstress 2015-10-03 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
"Can you imagine?" muses Aramis, "The three of us, unmarried and roaming about town? We'd drive the place mad with desire." He sniffs in amusement. "Not that Athos would notice until we pointed out his flock."
afineseamstress: (Oh really.)

[personal profile] afineseamstress 2015-10-03 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
"I don't know if you've noticed, darling," says Aramis, "But you presently have two, and were quite adamant about needing that second, and at our own wedding." Aramis smirks over his shoulder at him. "Admit it, you're a rogue."
afineseamstress: (Interested.)

"And how is that?" asks Aramis, deciding to bite since they've chosen to occupy their hands with food, rather than each other. "It was when I put that first melon atop my head, wasn't it?" he asks.
