Smart man. If you were this agreeable and obedient all the time, why-- Who knows what could happen?
[ not that he thinks he can "fix" toji or anything misguided like that. mostly, riddle just wants to be spoiled as much as possible. such are the whims and desires of a top tier brat. ]
That, I can certainly do. I would rather you not do things that elicit fussing, but I know that's a tall ask for a deviant like you.
Yes, I'm sure you'd be so happy if I was wrapped around your little finger.
[ instead of the way that riddle was, so very often, the one in that position himself. at least when toji works him properly, instead of into a tantrum. ]
And so hard, when you have so many buttons to press. Some of them are even fun to poke a little.
Even wild rabbits can be vicious, Toji-san. You would do well to remember that.
[ though, riddle can't deny that his physical combat capabilities are limited to spur-of-the-moment self-defense, crashing out and going way overboard, and running to safety. definitely the opposite of toji, no doubt... ]
Hmm... Perhaps you can teach me how to fight. If nothing else, I ought to know how to defend myself properly. Wouldn't you be incensed to find out some other brute tried to have his way with me and take what's yours?
[ so serious... riddle definitely felt himself throb a little bit. he doesn't dare unpack his body's reaction to the thought of toji committing a felony just for him since he can't imagine the results would say anything good about him as a person... ]
Goodness. Well, I shouldn't be surprised. While I could technically fend such a person off, you're right in your desire to avenge me. I still want to be able to handle someone before I turn them over to you, however.
Excellent! I'll be an excellent student, just you wait. I promise not to misuse your teachings as well. I will not purposefully instigate physical altercations with anyone.
[ really, it shouldn't be a surprise that got him going, considering what his type clearly is. which is to say: feral, dangerous, and bad for him. ]
That's understandable. I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty for you, though. You know that.
But if you want to learn, I'll put you through your paces. And try not to take advantage of you too much when I'm pinning you to the mat. Even if you are going to be awfully hard to resist in cute little gym clothes.
I know it quite well, thank you. I certainly appreciate it too. It's... No, I will leave it at that. I appreciate it, and it is flattering.
[ 'flattering' is an odd way to spell 'hot' or 'intoxicating', but as he said-- riddle will leave it alone.
...and now he's starting to reconsider his proposal. toji isn't the only one who is going to need to exercise self-restraint when he's getting grabbed, tossed, pinned down, and goodness knows what else. just the thought of the other man hovering over him, body brimming with heat and sweat from exercise, nothing but breathable (flimsy!) gym clothes between them...
needless to say, there's a slight delay in his response. riddle needed a cold glass of water and to step outside for some air. and to think, he has the nerve to call toji a pervert... ]
I will give it serious thought and let you know whenever I find the time. You bring up a few good points. Having you teach me may present a conflict of interest for the both of us at some point, and compromise our progress as a result. It's important we consider these things!
just as he knows that working out together would certainly lean into all sorts of compromising positions. positions that sweet, desperate little riddle is not likely to be able to resist as his hormones surge and his blood runs hot. toji might not even need to press things before riddle is clinging to his body instead. it's kind of fun to think about. ]
Sure, sure. You think long and hard about it. I'm sure it'll be very entertaining for you to do so. But if I'm going to be too much of a distraction, hey, I get it.
It's the only word for it! Flattering, and nothing more! I'm not the type to get all twitterpated over a man getting violent for me! That's deranged behavior!
[ and, as toji knows perfectly well, his babygirl is not deranged. nope! definitely sane and well-adjusted!
at the very least he's sort of self-aware enough to know these lessons would probably end up being fruitless in the end. the goal is to fight off the person being inappropriate with him, not open his legs for them. the only good thing to come out of this is the knowledge that toji feels more strongly about him getting untoward attention than he initially realized. riddle stores this information in his Brat Information Repositoryโข for totally normal purposes later on. ]
I don't know what you mean by entertaining, but it *is* something that will require great consideration. After all, the goal is to learn, not fool around or relax. I fear you may have a point. You're much too distracting to be around. I can't even *read* without you getting on my nerves. I will find another teacher, or carry a taser with me.
Of course, and you don't have any wicked, filthy desires that you're a little bit ashamed of. Not even one. So me all covered in blood or acting violent? Wouldn't be appealing at all.
[ your lies are powerless here, riddle. ]
You're so right. No point if you're not gonna get anything out of the lessons. Well, that's not fair. I'm sure you'd get something out of them, one way or another, and you'd definitely be working up a sweat, exhausted and shaky after the fact.
No! Not at all! Absolutely, positively not! Shame on you for even suggesting something so vulgar!
[ and shame on riddle for doubling down even though he's now imagining toji, spattered with some lesser man's blood and running high on adrenaline, hauling him up and fucking him senseless right next to whatever is left of the sorry bastard that thought he could claim what wasn't his. can he at least pretend to have a shred of decency left within him?! ]
Pack it in! Nevermind! Now I'm *definitely* withdrawing my request! There's no way we wouldn't end up just shagging on the floor and getting nothing else done! No, I think a taser and putting you on speed dial on my phone will do just fine!
Just asking, that's all. You don't have to get so wound up. It almost makes you sound defensive.
[ because now, yes, he definitely thinks that riddle likes it. that riddle is the same kind of wicked and depraved that he is. who knows? maybe next time he has a job, he'll have to make sure it's a messy one. one where riddle can enjoy the after-effects. ]
Probably for the best. I'm sure I could teach you some moves, but you're so small and cute, picking fights isn't in your nature. You just let me take care of you.
Who wouldn't get defensive over being accused of such debauchery?! You might as well just say I'm a touch mad and save us both time! (See what happens to you if you do that, by the way!)
[ he tries hard to hide it, and truthfully he has gotten a lot better compared to when he first started school, but toji's suspicions would be correct. he's no assassin, but the only thing that kept riddle from having a head count of his own is the fact his old classmates were brave enough to pry him off one of them when he tried his damndest to introduce a pair of scissors to their neck. it isn't necessarily his proudest moment, but he still maintains he was in the right given the situation. essentially getting away with attempted murder didn't humble him the way it should have.
toji doesn't need to know any of that though. not right now. ]
You're correct. Even I know instigating a fight and putting my hands on someone else most likely won't end well for me. I'm not...necessarily well-liked by some of my peers. I'm sure you understand what I'm getting at. Not to worry though. I can handle foolish schoolboys, and I finally have friends who are on my side as well.
But, on the off-chance someone beyond my capabilities accosts me, I won't mind siccing you on them. There *are* few things more attractive than a man defending your honor.
I mean, you're into me, so that probably suggests something about your tastes. But hey, I can't judge.
[ as he's well aware of. some would say that he was born rotten, in fact, and he's not sure if that's true, but what he knows is that he is now, in a lot of ways. perhaps he shouldn't be messing around with someone like riddle because of it - but he is rotten. so he'll just keep having fun.
what's the worst that can happen? ]
Well, I like you well enough, you know that. So if anything ever comes up, you just point me at whoever's hassling you, and I'll make sure they stop. Permanently.
Oh hush. You're handsome (to put it politely), you can be charming at times, and your cock is immaculate. It would suggest something about my tastes if I *weren't* "into you" as I'm sure many are.
[ it would be one thing if toji came to the conclusion he was rotten on his own and as a result of his lifestyle choices, but if riddle knew he'd been told this before he ever had a chance to decide for himself, it would drive him utterly mad, send him into an upset frenzy. even after everything he's shared with the other man though, he isn't quite ready to unpack why that is.
he's fairly certain if he does, the worst that can happen would happen, and that too requires further unpacking-- it would be a mess. deep down, for now riddle is in agreement. he, too, would like this to be fun for as long as it can be. ]
Do not eviscerate, murder, or maul my classmates, Toji-san. Really, if it comes to that, I can handle it myself. That aside, it really doesn't bother me. Why should I pay any mind to those who are beneath me?
...I do appreciate the offer though. Really. I know I can't do anything similar in return, but I truly mean it when I say that if there's a way I can protect you too, then you must tell me immediately! Anything at all.
Hmm, that is all true. I'm a very pretty package, and I know what I'm doing. Some aren't quite as fond of how, oh, dangerous I can feel. But you like it. A big, strong hand that I'm not afraid to put around your neck and squeeze, right?
[ and he knows how to do it without causing lasting harm! or specifically to do so. he is a man of many talents. not that riddle has to worry about the latter, no matter how annoying he might get. ]
Fine, fine. I don't usually put the hurt on people without getting paid for it, anyway. If you asked nicely, I might cop you a freebie, but that's about it. I can just scare them off, anyway.
And you're cute. I'll let you know if anything comes up.
[ he's not sure how it possibly could, mind you, but. you know. ]
You may be a brute, but you aren't boorish, so that automatically curries you great favor from me. I know little of fear, so a bit of danger is thrilling in calculated doses...and I daresay you're quite good at math.
[ 'like it' is an understatement, but riddle opts to at least try keeping his slutacious thoughts to himself this time. toji is already huge-- riddle doesn't want to give him a big head (well, bigger head) on top of it. ]
Surely you have better things to do with your time than scare off foolish high school boys? Plus, I dread to imagine the rumors that would spread afterwards. "Oh my, the student council president has a hot bodyguard!" What would I even say to that?
Oh, so I'm a respectable brute. I think that's the nicest thing anyone's ever said about me.
[ the sad part? that might be true, if we're excluding things about his penis or how good he is in bed. ]
Hey, if I'm between jobs, I can do what I like. And if that means playing guard dog, I can work with that. Don't you want everyone to know that you have a big, scary, gorgeous man protecting you and doting on your every word?
Surely you jest. If this is your way of trying to weasel more compliments out of me, it won't work!
[ because yes, toji is a hot mess and a generally terrible person all around, but riddle will be damned if he doesn't give credit where it's due. yes, his ability to lay pipe was bestowed by the gods themselves, but he has other good qualities too.
...just don't ask riddle to list them right now. look, it's a feeling okay? a feeling!
and also, does a bear shit in the woods? what kind of question is that?! of course riddle wants everyone to know he has the hottest, strongest guard dog this side of japan! he's not just going to admit it though! ]
While that may be true, it isn't that simple for me! I go to a very elite, very expensive private school, and many of the students are the posh and materialistic sort who come from old money. I'm not the only one seeing an older gentleman, but I'm sure you can imagine what people say behind their backs!
Plus... I mean no disrespect, Toji-san, but most of the time you dress far too comfortably. You may not care if you're looked down on by snobbish fools, but I have a reputation to maintain.
[ not that riddle minds the homebody aesthetic normally. it's not like their clothes stay on for too long when they're together anyway. ]
[ who knows, if riddle tried to shower him with too many sincere compliments, he might get uncomfortable. better to just keep him singing his praises in the bedroom, that's easier.
and more fun. ]
Aha, see, now we get to the real problem. What, you think I'm too shabby? I'm almost hurt.
Besides, if I walked around in a suit all day, I'd never be able to get anything done. People would be bending over for me in the street. I've got to keep this hotness on lock down.
[ unfortunately, it will most likely happen some day. riddle is far too honest and transparent for his own good, and often doesn't consider others when expressing said honesty. that'll be a problem for future riddle and future toji, though. ]
I said I meant no disrespect! You're the one who said shabby, not me! I, personally, do not care when we're separate or alone together, but if we're going to be seen together, that's another matter entirely!
...You might be right. Expecting people to bend over for you on site is an exaggeration, but you *would* undoubtedly attract too much attention. If you cleaned up and put on a suit, or even something semi-formal, you would definitely be accosted at every turn. I would be so busy smacking everyone who approached you, there would be no time to do anything else.
I cannot have that. My schedule is tight as it is! Unless you plan to take me out on a date, you mustn't do anything that will draw untoward attention towards yourself!
[ little rose is big jealous. it takes a special kind of insane to be angry at made-up people in a made-up scenario, but this is toji's life now. ]
[ lord help him from high strung and needy women princess boys. ]
See? I know what I'm capable of. I've gotta slum it a little just so I can blend into a crowd. I mean, have you seen my shoulders? I gotta be able to make it from point a to point b without too much trouble.
Don't you worry, though. I won't be giving anyone else attention, not while you're keeping me so occupied, my little princess. No one takes me as good as you do, anyway.
[ at least he's trying to be reassuring, in the... most lewd way possible? no, okay, he doesn't get credit for that. ]
Is that right? I suppose it makes sense. You need every advantage you can get, given you're the size of a damned house, and a handsome face like yours is easy to recognize... Your job is very dangerous. Are you not worried about dealing with retaliation from scorned parties?
[ when riddle isn't around, is toji's life like those action movies where the spy or assassin is constantly fighting off goons? will riddle get kidnapped and held ransom by a rival organization someday? will they have to mr. and mrs. smith their way out of trouble?! if so, toji is screwed... such are the thoughts of a high strung and neurotic princess. look, he just doesn't want his trial boyfriend to get shot or something, alright?! ]
See now, you did well with being encouraging and charming up until that very last sentence. I went from twitterpated to wanting to hit you in the knee with a baseball bat. You're far too fixated on my bottom!
