    Summary

    “What’s this?” Pete asks, surveying the ensemble Vegas has laid out for him.

    “Put it on,” Vegas tells him in a voice that brooks no argument. “All of it.”

    Pete glances at him, and for a moment Vegas thinks he will refuse, but his eyes are already going dark and heavy-lidded. He’s not always this easy, but sometimes all it takes is a little push. Pete lets the towel drop to the floor.

    ~

    Post-canon, Vegas and Pete decide to take Macau and make a run for it. On the way, Vegas reflects on what he can still offer Pete — and what he can ask in return.

    Summary

    When Vegas is handed the keys to a failing major family hotel and told to bring it back to life, he knows it’s not a gift, or a test, or even an opportunity to prove himself. It’s a taunt. It’s a way to set him up for failure so everyone can rub his nose in the shitshow he’s left with, defeated and inferior to his cousins like always. It’s the death sentence of his pride in a gilded cage.

    But misery loves company and all that, and he finds a surprisingly fitting cellmate in an unassuming looking employee named Pete. Now if only he could get Pete to stop playing hard to get, this cage could become a lot more comfortable.

    Summary

    “No, Vegas, you must believe me! I didn’t mean to. I never wanted to-” He couldn’t even say it.
    “I didn’t think you’d… I just needed to get away. I couldn’t take anymore, but I would’ve never thought-”

    Vegas got up from the bed, at that point. He walked over to Pete, just taking his words in, letting Pete keep talking. Something had changed in the air, something about how his legs cut across the room. Like a switch had been flipped.

    “You didn’t want to?”
    He squatted in front of Pete, to get on his same level, and reached a hand in his direction.

    “No!” Pete screamed, unsure if it was in answer to Vegas or if in response to the idea of being touched again. He refused to feel that cold again. He threw himself back, hard enough that he almost fell back. He caught himself with an arm, unpolished and exposed.

    “Make it up to me, then.”

    Summary

    Macau is away at university, studying in Japan now that the family's agreed to continue sponsoring his education. Which is good, because Pete would hate for him to still be in their new, modest apartment, with its tragically thin walls, the first time Vegas tries to give Pete a handjob.

    Pete and Vegas, shortly after the show, trying to figure out their sex lives.

    “Dr. Theerapayakul,” Pete starts, and Kinn turns to look at him as if he’d forgotten Pete’s existence.

    “I’m speaking to Mr. Kittisawat right now, Pete.”

    “I realize that, sir. However, I think I may be able to help.” Fuck. Here it goes. Kinn raises an eyebrow and gestures for him to continue.

    Pete gathers his courage around him. This is for Porsche. Porsche, who doesn’t deserve any of what Kinn’s been putting him through since he arrived.

    “I can TA for Dr. Vegas.”

    Summary

    Vegas has never experienced an afterglow that burns like an oil fire, a sudden and dangerous thing that he can’t quite remember how best to put out past the panic. It doesn’t help that Pete’s smile is like a torrent of cool water on his feverish skin, making the flames jump higher.

    It makes Vegas want to do something dangerous that he’s never really been good at before – it makes him want to take care of Pete. Problem is, he doesn’t really know how.

    Summary

    Pete knew that breaking up with Vegas was the worst idea he'd ever had.

    He didn’t even know why he was ending a five-year long relationship out of nowhere; he couldn’t make sense of himself or the tension boiling over. It seemed the only way to disperse it was to leave. He just needed some time. He was going to explode. He didn’t even know what the problem was. Everything with Vegas was perfect, so why couldn’t Pete be happy?

    When Pete said he wanted space, Vegas was supposed to know it was a lie. When Pete left in the middle of the night, Vegas was supposed to drag him back him home, like a lost dog waiting for his owner. When Pete broke his heart, Vegas was supposed to know that Pete still loved him.

    … It was lonely, without him.

    Summary

    The first time they have sex is transcendent. It is, despite the circumstances, the best Pete could have hoped for from a first time. Not that he told Vegas it was his first time— or ever would.

     

    The second time they have sex, it’s very different, but the experience is no less formative for Pete.

    Summary

    “You should hit me,” Vegas says.
    Even blind he knows he’s struck something, because the words hang like blood in the air. They snake back down his throat and settle in his lungs with a wet, heavy rightness that Vegas hasn’t felt all night. It would all be okay, he thinks, if Pete hit him. It wouldn’t remove him from his body; it would center him. And Pete’s fists can remold him better, punish him, free him from the filthy guilt-ridden jumble of what he is. They have before.
    Vegas lifts his cheek and braces his jaw to take the blow.

    In which Vegas comes home drunk and speedruns setting off emotional landmines.

    Summary

    “I’m not going to give you information,” Pete volunteers to his bent over form. There’s no way to know exactly what’s in store for him but Pete feels the need to make that declaration.

    There’s a sharp zapping sound, and Vegas turns to face him then, revealing the jumper cables in his gloved hands which are connected to a car battery on the table behind him. The rest seems self-explanatory.

    “I don’t want information,” Vegas says, finally looking up at him from the cables.

    By then Vegas is already advancing on him, much too close for comfort. But Pete has already resigned himself at this point.

     

    Or the one where Pete is very uncooperative at being tortured, Vegas gets a little too creative and falls for his own trap in the worst way possible.

    Summary

    Still holding onto his wrist, River turns slowly and comes face to face with her pickpocket. He’s older than she’d expected – fluffy gray curls peeking out from beneath a battered top hat. Tall and thin, he wears a shabby black coat and leans heavily on a walking stick. He’s staring right at her but his eyes are oddly blank and she realizes with a jolt that he’s blind.

    “Well no wonder I caught you,” she mutters, watching him frown in her direction. “You can’t even see what you’re doing.”

    Summary

    There have been small moments here and there, Vegas reaching for his gun when someone steps too close to Pete, his fingers curling into a fist when someone smiles at Pete a little too brightly, an increased level of domination when someone talks to Pete a little too long.

    Pete is enjoying these bursts of jealousy and rage from Vegas, finds that the sex is ravenous and filthy between them when Vegas has to prove that no one else will ever get to touch Pete like he does.

    What Pete really wants to know is if Vegas is getting off on the jealousy and subsequent rage as much as Pete is.

    Or; Pete realizes how jealous Vegas gets and how much it turns him on, turning it into a kinky game between them.

    Summary

    “I trust you, Vegas. We trust each other.”

    Vegas’ mouth parted slightly. While true, neither of them had ever said it aloud. He didn’t know how to respond.

    Pete crawled into Vegas’ lap, holding his face to kiss him softly. Vegas wrapped his arms around Pete’s back, fingertips grazing the ridges of his spine. Unbidden, Vegas remembered other bodies he’d touched. Bones snapped, skin broken, blood spilt.

    “I want to say no,” Pete murmured into his mouth, as if saying something sweet. His tongue flicked out to catch on the back of Vegas’ teeth. “I want to say no, and I want you to fuck me anyway.”

    Pete asks for something new. Vegas is willing to try.
