[GP] Shoot that poison arrow

[st_aff]

None of the guests noticed when the spiky-haired man-child in jeans and purple t-shirt, wrists wrapped in cheap leather and metal bracelets, arrived at the Madonna Inn a few hours before midnight on February 13. That, in itself, wasn't all that surprising. Eros, otherwise known as Danny Valentine, had millennia of experience doing his job without being spotted.

What was surprising was that the dude at the front desk did see him. Tall and Nondescript waved him over and then gave him a room number 'in case you wanted to rest'. But Danny didn't.

Want to, or rest. He spent the time before the clock struck midnight polishing his love gun. Not like that. He'd find a girl to spend his nameday with. He always did. No, this little beauty was made by Hephaestus himself. It shot love darts that disappeared on contact.

At midnight, kitted out with more love darts than there were people in this pink and gold monstrosity, Danny left his room and shot the first person he saw--and didn't wait to see what would happen.

No point getting a slow start. He had a lot of work to do.

Considering everything, Carlos had only a little experience of kissing - life had been far too busy, but this was like nothing he'd experienced before, and frankly he didn't want to stop. It just felt too good.

So good that when Buffy wrapped herself around him, he manoeuvred them against the wall so he could press close as he kissed her, barely breaking for air.

sorry! I thought I'd answered this

Buffy barely felt the scratch of the wall against her back. Truth be told, everything was ignored except for the feel of his body pressed to hers and the fire that was traveling through her. Unlike what she'd told Giles all those months ago- fire was definitely pretty right now.

Her fingers slid along the muscles of his back, sneaking in under the hem of the garment so that she could touch his flesh. It was hot and such a different sensation that she'd been used to with Angel, that Buffy made a sound almost like a purr of satisfaction.

Oh this felt good. Why had he not done this before now? He pressed in close, enjoying just losing himself in the sensation.

His muscled shuddered under her ministrations, and any thought went out of the window. All he wanted to do was the same to her, feel that move of skin and muscle and how it would feel under his hands, his skin against hers. But part of him realized that they were out in the open. "Somewhere... private," he murmured, in between kisses.

That should have thrown cold water on Buffy, but it didn't, not even a little bit. It sounded like the best idea ever and she was eager to offer her room. "My room." She made a face at the thought of it, and all the pink everywhere. Buffy nipped at his lower lip, somewhat teasing, somewhat serious. "You wouldn't happen to know anyone that knows how to do a transportation spell do you?"

Not that Buffy knew if one existed, but it would come in handy right about now. Or one of those beaming thingys that Xander and Willow talked about.

"No such spell," Carlos murmured, groaning a little as she nipped at his lip. "No access to the Ways either, or it would shorten the time." It was a little absent minded as he talked, forgetting he probably wasn't supposed to admit to being a wizard. He was far more interested in getting Buffy alone, and seeing what everyone had been talking about so much. "I can hide us, though."

Re: Buffy and Carlos

Buffy had no idea what a Ways was and only slightly aware that he admitted to knowing about magic. Which was cool, she could talk openly. Not that it would have stopped her from talking openly if he didn't know magic was a thing.

But those thoughts evaporated as soon as he mentioned hiding them. For a moment, she stopped kissing him but her lips were still very close to his. "You can do that? Really? Then what are you waiting for?" She probably should think about this, the last time she had sex (the only time actually) her boyfriend had turned into a sociopathic killer and then she sent him to hell for a hundred years. Not a good track record, but Buffy was thinking clearly, she was feeling and it felt really, really good.

[st_illavirgin]

He flashed her a grin, muttered 'Obscurate' and made a gesture, and the air around them shimmered, sounds becoming dulled. It wasn't his best veil (Molly was great at them, he was merely very, very good) as feelings and emotions began interfering with his concentration. A lamp in the far corner also flickered and went out. Of course, this meant there was a risk of the veil collapsing, but Carlos wasn't thinking about that. "Sssssh," he gestured, grinning at her. "It doesn't dull all sound."

[st_accato]

Buffy glanced around, curiosity temporarily taking over for the lust. "Seriously? No one can see us? That is so cool." It would be so useful with patrolling. Well back in Sunnydale since there weren't vampires here.

The curiosity quickly faded almost as soon as she finished talking. "And just so you know, I'm quiet." Buffy nipped at his bottom lip again before she wrinkled her nose. "Well it's not like I've had a lot of experience to compare."
