The way Corrigan's wings curl in towards him, like they're about to wrap around him and shield them both, makes Kurt's stomach swoop so hard he feels almost a little nauseous. Those black feathers, clipped and uncared for, are so close to touching his own, white and pillowy soft and gently flexing in their sockets, like he aches for the comforting touch of an equal. He does, he finds he wants to touch those broken wings so badly. Kurt swallows, moving his left wing gently, reaching out to brush against Corrigan's wing right as he withdraws them, hiding them away behind his back, folding them in on themselves before the boy could get close.
Naturally. Even though Mr. Molloy is one of them, he's still Kurt's boss. Brushing wings, holding hands - even though he's gone through a frightening incident on the clock, that kind of contact is totally inappropriate. Kurt scolds himself for wanting that kind of comfort.
The panic on his face when Corrigan says he's off the roster is palpable and immediate, as is the relief smoothing over that burst of fear when he clarifies he hasn't been fired. The whole boy deflates, like something has come loose inside him, a trembling hand coming up to wipe at his flushed cheek before any tears have fallen.
"Y-Yes, sir, I understand," he mumbles, feeling uneasy about not working but still understanding why it has to be done. He doesn't want to encourage anyone else seeking him out to hurt him, just because of the color of his wings. He doesn't want anyone else to get hurt because of him either. "What... H-How do we weed these people out, sir? Can we even do that? What if they go after someone else?" Even though he comes from the midwest, Kurt doesn't really know how to deal with religious nuts.
The ghost of that touch, soft, flawless feathers against marred ones, is enough to have Corrigan shivering down to his bones. He wants to move forward, wrap Kurt up in his wings, tattered as they are, pull him into his arms and finger-comb through the ruffled, snowy feathers, wants to stroke through his hair and chase away every bit of that hollow, haunted look that lingers in his expression, colors his voice. He wants to build a damn nest, an instinct he'd been positive had died years ago.
Instead he clears his throat, sitting back on his heels, feathers brushing the carpet. "We'll -- figure something out. People like that are insane, but they're not usually stupid." Too well-organized and controlled to be stupid. Cults always have a leader, and a good leader makes good decisions. "They're easily intimidated by the usual things -- power, money, status. If you had a particularly powerful client, they wouldn't touch you."
Of course, that would be difficult since Kurt isn't on the roster anymore. Corrigan is quiet for a moment, wings rustling absently in thought. Then the solution occurs, so obvious it almost makes him laugh: "Me. I'll say you're mine."
Kurt doesn't know what's scarier: the thought that his seven o'clock had been a crazed lone wolf, or that he'd been ordered to come here and seek out the Angel Boy by a cult leader of some kind. Either thought makes him shiver, not helped by the filmy fabric draped over his chest, barely covering anything. His wings curl around his shoulders again.
"What?" Mr. Molloy's suggestion makes Kurt's eyes go wide - and his cheeks go bright red, feathers fluffing out noticeably, something he immediately and vehemently ignores. Corrigan Molloy would go out and claim he's a client of Kurt's? Even though it's a lie to keep him safe, the thought still makes the young man feel like his insides have gone liquid. Mr. Molloy is dark, powerful, mysterious, and devastatingly attractive. And a flight at that. Kurt's exact type.
"B-But sir, doesn't that make you a target, then?" he asks, groomed brows pulling together in a soft frown. He scoots a little forward in the chair, inching closer to his boss. "If they think you're in the way. I-I'm not sure how scared they are of money and status, I mean... They came into your establishment, after all, they threatened your property."
As much as it makes his stomach turn to label himself as property, it's the god's honest truth. "I don't know about this, sir... Is this going to be safe?"
There's a sound that might be a laugh and might be a cough at the sudden poof of feathers, like some sentient puffball. Corrigan is trying very hard to make it seem like the latter. Mysterious indeed. He settles back on his heels, rubbing his hand over his face, because there's definitely a ton of issues with the plan.
Still. "I've always been a target. But they're -- afraid of me in a way they wouldn't be of anyone else. It's one thing for you to be a worker, but it's another for me to...stake a definite, deliberate claim. Besides," he adds, unconsciously inching closer, wings furling out again, hovering closer and closer with each word. "It solves the problem of what we tell the staff. You being under extra surveillance because of a potential attack is the kind of thing that could get out easily. Gossip is as dangerous as box cutters."
Then he softens, letting the very tips of his dark feathers brush against Kurt's, gentle, almost hesitant. "It will. I'm not going to let anything happen to you, all right?"
It's... strange, seeing his boss like this. He's usually so poised and controlled, like he's in control of every muscle in his body at all times, like he's completely impervious to the anxieties of man- and flight kind. But here he is, scrubbing his hand over his face, looking almost a little unsure of himself, almost a little scared. Strange, but kind of funny. The day Kurt learns Mr. Molloy is anything but human is the first time he sees some real humanity in him.
Is that what irony is? Kurt's always struggled to tell.
Kurt has to actively remind himself that they're putting on a front here, because hearing Mr. Molloy utter the words 'stake a definite, deliberate claim' in regards to him makes his wings fluff up even bigger, downy feathers poofing out gently. Trying to will it away is like willing away goosebumps, it just doesn't work like that. So he sits there as his boss inches closer, his mouth a little dry as those dark wings slowly unfurls, blushing and fluffing softly as he's told nothing is going to happen to him.
Inky black feathers brush over snowy white, like fingertips shyly meeting, and Kurt shivers. It feels like fireworks. "All right. I-- I trust you, sir," he says earnestly, leaning closer for emphasis, wings gently reaching out to touch Corrigan's - unafraid, unaffected by the state of them. "Thank you."
Corrigan almost tells Kurt not to call him "sir", but that -- wouldn't go very far towards keeping up this facade of them being more...intimate. A facade which he's even now overthinking and frowning over, so preoccupied that he barely noticed the gentle touch of Kurt's soft, fluffy wings. His own flutter in response, one of them absently curling around Kurt like some strange, lopsided umbrella, resting across his shoulders. It's heavy, smelling lightly of cologne and starched fabric.
"You're welcome," very absently, still thinking over the logistics. They have to make it as realistic as possible. As believable as possible. It's one thing for a fringe group to go after a new, untested, inexperienced worker, it's another for them to make an attempt on the boss's favorite. "You'll -- have to move into my room. For a bit."
He glances up then, clearing his throat in embarrassment at his unconsciously affectionate behavior, moving his wing away. "Ah, but you won't -- that is, you don't. I won't. Force you to do anything you don't want to. If you -- catch my meaning." Owner of a specialty fetish brothel, not able to talk about sex plainly, right here.
The heavy touch of Corrigan's wing curling around him is comforting in a way Kurt would never have expected. Even with his clipped feathers, the gaps in his formidable wing span, Kurt feels safe even under that absent touch. He finds he wants to sink into Mr. Molloy's chest, feel both wings envelop him completely, let the scent of cologne wrap him up and shield him from everything and everyone, leaving only the two of them, huddled around each other in the safety of their nest.
So when his boss pulls his wing away, Kurt whines unconsciously at the loss, white wings momentarily chasing that touch before he catches himself. He doesn't want to make a fool of himself, not in front of Mr. Molloy.
Not when he's going to be moving in with him. Spending all this time with him. Pretending... Well, who says he has to pretend? "Oh. But, sir, I want to work, I want to be the best at my job, and... and it sounds like I have a new client to take care of for a bit." Kurt still feels a little shy, blushing, knocking ankles, but you'd have to be blind not to see how puffy his wings are with interest. "I haven't had my performance review yet, but I can assure you, I'm very good at my job."
There's a long moment wherein Corrigan has one eyebrow arched, the wing not around Kurt's shoulders also rising slightly. It's happens to be the opposite wing to eyebrow, which gives him a slightly off-balance look for a couple minutes. Then he clears his throat, trying not to look at the fluffed-out, snowy-white feathers -- it's difficult to fake that level of interest, even with years of practice, most wing-related movements being purely instinctive. So Kurt doesn't seem to be lying.
Still, he almost asks why?, glancing towards his scarred wings silently and meaningfully. Most people -- winged or otherwise -- wouldn't want to go near him in this state. Too many questions, too disturbing, too upsetting. All he says aloud though, is: "You've had excellent reviews, yes. I don't think you need to worry about your performance."
Reluctantly, Corrigan pulls his wings back, standing up and picking up the discarded bandages again. He keeps his back towards Kurt, feathers fluffed up slightly, which just increases the overall size of his wings. "Still. I don't -- want you to force yourself. That isn't my goal here."
The see-saw look of Corrigan's wing and eyebrow raising at the same time on opposite ends is disarmingly charming. He doesn't look anywhere near as intimidating and brooding as he usually does, whenever Kurt sneaks shy glances at him during meetings or company events or every time they pass in the lobby. He looks so human like this. Like a real person with feelings and doubts, a real person who gets confused, who feels unsure.
There's a strong pull in his gut to follow Corrigan when he rises to his feet, turning his back to him. Kurt wants to run his pale fingers over those dark feathers, marvel at the stunning contrast they make. He wants to make Mr. Molloy sigh with pleasure and arch into his touch, chase his talented fingers, see just why Cassiel gets such excellent reviews.
But he knows the importance of consent better than most. He won't touch Corrigan if he doesn't want to be - and it sure sounds like he doesn't want to be touched. But whether that's because he's anticipating rejection or because he's genuinely not interested in Kurt, is hard to tell.
"You assume I have to force myself to want to sleep with you, sir," Kurt says softly, nervous fingers tracing the hem of his drapey top. His eyes are following the curved lines of Corrigan's wings - they're huge, and when you're able to see past the damage, really attractive. He thinks he spies those feathers fluffing up, but it could be a trick of the light. "That's not the case, I can assure you. But if you're not interested, that's fine." A soft laugh. "It's just a front, right? To avoid copycats. It's fine."
There is definitely some fluffing happening, even more so with Kurt's soft, earnest voice. Corrigan can feel the eyes on him, and it's mildly irritating, because he can't wrap his wings up when they're all poofy -- the bandages will never lie straight if he does that. So he turns again, loosely looping the bandages in one hand, taking the moment to stretch out one wing, then the other.
"You assume I'm not interested. Clearly we both have an issue with assumption." His expression softens, eyes staying firmly locked with Kurt's, rather than wandering, like they want to. That top leaves little to the imagination, and all he wants to do is reach out. He wants it so badly he can taste it. "Even if it's a front, it's not going to be difficult to keep up the impression that I want you." He pauses, clearing his throat a couple times.
"But I've...been in your position before." That's also news -- everyone has whispered about the boss's mysterious origins, whether he started as a low-level worker and just climbed (or slept) his way to the top, or if he'd came into the business privileged and powerful. The assumption has always been that the latter is true. "And there was...not anyone to watch out for my best interests." Corrigan lets himself step closer, reaches out, this time with his hand, cupping Kurt's chin and tipping it upwards. "That's always going to be my first priority. And if being with me compromises that, then I will...make that sacrifice."
So he's not imagining things. Corrigan does want him. If anything could make Kurt forget all about his awful traumatic evening, that would certainly be a good start.
But his boss locks eyes with him and confesses he's been where Kurt is now, making sure the young man understands the gravity of this situation, that his vulnerable position isn't something to be taken lightly or brushed off because your boss wants to sleep with you. Kurt draws a shaky breath. Fidgets with his top. Wonders without meaning to if Corrigan's injuries are from his time in Kurt's place. The thought makes his stomach turn, and he desperately tries to push it away, not wanting to frighten himself, not wanting Mr. Molloy to think he pities him.
He gasps softly as Corrigan takes him by the chin, surrendering to the touch, not breaking that firmly established eye contact. It makes him feel a lot safer, knowing he has Mr. Molloy batting for him, but the thought of anyone making sacrifices makes him uneasy. It's just one weird Jesus freak, right? How bad can it really be? Still, he'll take the protection the name Corrigan Molloy offers any day of the week. "Thank you, sir," he says softly, a hand reaching out to gently smooth over the man's thigh, his hip, so conveniently within reach. "I'd, um... request no one makes any sacrifices, if at all possible," he adds with a quiet laugh.
There's a soft huff of sound, almost a laugh, wondering and almost gentle. But then Kurt reaches out, one of those soft, long-fingered hands trailing fingertips over Corrigan's hip, and there's a flash of the domineering, possessive nature that he's much better known for. The hand on Kurt's chin tugs, upwards, once, with the air of someone used to getting what they want.
"You're going to be trouble for me," he says, softly, voice heavy with that barely repressed wanting and amusement. "Good trouble. But trouble." Behind him, his wings are fanning out, no longer self-conscious or shameful, spreading as much as they can in the small room. Like this, held properly, even the splintered feathers aren't as noticeable as the healthy ones, as the leanly corded muscle rippled with scars, as the presence Corrigan has, even just standing still in the middle of the room. "C'mere."
That strong hand gives his chin a firm tug, and something in Kurt makes him feel like he's won. Mr. Molloy paying him this kind of attention, something he's been fantasizing about for months, makes everything else seem insignificant in comparison. Some weirdo with a box cutter, the shock of discovering a well kept traumatic secret, it all pales in his mind when he's beckoned to stand by his superior's strong hand and voice heavy with wanting.
Kurt loves to please. Part of what makes him exceptional at his job. Something in his brain is just wired differently - maybe it's because of the wings, maybe not - making him want to trip over himself to please and serve if beckoned by the right people. Mr. Molloy is absolutely the right people.
"Oh no, sir, I'm not like that at all. I'm not the kind of boy to be any trouble," he teases, rising to stand and pressing his body against Corrigan's. He's so big and firm against him, made even bigger by the maddeningly hot display of his wings fully unfurling, unashamed and stunning. Kurt doesn't get to be with fellow flights very often. His wings fan out too, so white and soft, feathers flexing shyly.
Corrigan clicks his tongue reproachfully, reaching out one big wing to fully make sure the door is closed, before letting the protective, possessive circle of them close around him and Kurt, feeling the warm shape of him through the soft, clinging clothes. "Liar," he murmurs, ducking his head to nudge the tip of his nose against Kurt's, then obligingly kissing him, a slow, lingering type of kiss.
The hand on the young man's chin stays where it is, but the other one slides up his back, over the draping layers of fabric, nails grazing over the sensitive spot where feathers and skin meet. Corrigan strokes through the plush, velvet-soft feathers he's been admiring for months without letting himself touch, letting out a soft, pleased moan of sound into Kurt's mouth, tongue slipping past his lips. He tastes as good as he looks, feels incredible as he shivers closer to Corrigan's hard, muscled body, as those angel wings of his flare out, brilliant, gleaming white. Corrigan slides his fingers through the feathers, curling his hand around one of the long flight ones, letting it sliiiiide through inch by inch. "Pretty, pretty liar."
Kurt melts almost immediately into the kiss, not giving himself even a moment to overthink, just letting his body completely take over and do what feels natural. He doesn't feel like he has to put on the careful front he wears with clients, doesn't have to strategically counter every touch, doesn't have to remember the long list of kinks and squicks and preferences they filled out beforehand. There's no work, no strategy, no thought. Kurt just lets himself feel Mr. Molloy's plush lips to his own, his warm breath on his skin, his strong hand pressing against his back.
Against his wings. Right at his scapular feathers, pillowy soft and yielding to touch and absolutely the most sensitive ones. The boy moans, a high and needy sound against Corrigan's invading tongue, arching his body into the other's, holding onto his hips for dear life. It feels so good, like a tickle in his spine, making his knees buckle and his wings fan out with pleasure, brushing against Corrigan's where they form a protective circle around him.
"Sir--" Kurt moans as his boss slowly runs his fingers down one of his primaries, teasing, absolutely dragging it out on purpose. He shudders, instinctive. Even after almost six months of this, his wings are still so sensitive - but naturally, Corrigan's touch is unlike any other. "Feels so good, sir. Ah, m-more, please. Please, touch me more."
It's been an embarrassingly long time since Corrigan's been with anyone. It's difficult to have any sort of intimate encounter where it won't be suspicious to keep your shirt on, and even in the rare occasions that he's managed it, the painful binding of the bandages around his chest and back had been far too distracting to allow him to actually enjoy himself. So he's even more affected than normal by Kurt's hands at his waist, Kurt's mouth on his, Kurt's wings fluttering whisper-soft against his own.
And, of course, there's nothing quite like being touched by someone who knows what feels good, who knows how to make you lose your mind with pleasure. Corrigan knows some of the employees spend time with each other, craving that exact freedom of touch that can't be present when you're in the middle of a business exchange. He knows they'll flock together -- pun intended -- preening and stroking each other's feathers, desperate to satisfy some taboo instinct that's been sexualized beyond recovery.
He wants Kurt, wants him in a purely animalistic, primal way he's never wanted anyone before, but he also knows that craving to be touched, to be held like you aren't something to be purchased or something to be recoiled from. So he runs his hand back through the tertial feathers close to Kurt's skin, up to the tiny scapular ones, fingers sliding between them to the base of each quill. He can feel them fluffing out in pleasure, can feel Kurt's smaller wingspan brushing against his own. He nuzzles into the crook of the younger man's neck, breathes him in, obeys the soft, pleading words without a second thought. He never wants to stop touching him.
Corrigan touching him like this feels so good, Kurt doesn't ever want him to stop either. His fingers are big and warm, so different from most of his colleagues when they flock together after hours, soothing and comforting and playing with each other, releasing all kinds of pent-up needs and feelings. No one gets it like one of your own. After long days and weeks of clumsy human hands, either going too hard or barely touching them at all, tugging on feathers like that's supposed to do anything, nothing feels better than another flight swooping in with long, thin fingers threading past sensitive quills, really knowing where and how to touch.
And while it's been a while since Corrigan has been intimate with anyone, he sure could've fooled the young flight, because it feels like he too really knows. Kurt whimpers softly, pressing his barely clothed chest against Corrigan's bare one, fingers trembling against the sharp jut of his hips, the front of those soft pants starting to strain.
"Sir," the boy moans, wings flexing and fluffing from Corrigan's touch, so impatient for touch he chases those broad, strong hands. His own hands start moving up the man's chiseled body, relishing how broad he is, how firm and strong those muscles are, all along his stomach and waist and ribs and chest, all the way up his back, to the very base of those wings. Any scars, any hint of old trauma, are touched the same as the rest of him - with curiosity, patience, reverence, hot impatience bubbling just under the surface.
"I want to touch you. W-Want you to feel this good too, sir, want to hear you feel good. Please," it's mumbled between kisses pressed to his neck, his shoulder. His fingers press against his skin, just shy of the base of his wings, waiting for consent to be given. "Please, let me touch you."
Corrigan's instinct is to shy away, to curl in on himself and shield the old scars from view. After all, if you're told again and again that something is horrific, ugly, monstrous, you start to believe it eventually. But Kurt's touch is eager and hungry in a way that Corrigan hasn't felt in ages, and if the sight of his inky-black feathers against the downy, soft white ones makes something guilty curl in his gut --
-- well, he can close his eyes when he ducks to kiss Kurt again, this time far less innocent. He lets a hint of the bone-deep hunger he feels creep into how his tongue curls into Kurt's mouth, swallows up his sweet, pleading voice. The hand buried in those soft feathers curls, nails scraping over the base of each quill, a pleasure-pain that's almost too much to bear.
"Say my name," he murmurs when he pulls back to breathe, when he shifts to sit on the desk, knocking books and papers haphazardly to the ground. His hands are big, rough, demanding on Kurt's waist, pulling him up and into his lap, kissing him again and again. "Say it."
Consent is not given, so Kurt doesn't bury his fingers in-between those dark feathers, no matter how badly he wants to - by god he wants to touch him. He wants to make Corrigan feel good so badly, it's like a pull in his bones, a primal yearning to pleasure the other man, one he doesn't have the vocabulary to explain.
Biological, probably. It could explain why he melts so easily into Corrigan's hungry kiss, claiming him completely. It could explain why that touch of pain to his most sensitive place makes him arch and cry out, his knees buckling, his cock twitching with need in those barely-there filmy pants, hiding all of nothing. It could explain why he follows so eagerly into his employer's lap, holding onto his broad shoulders, whimpering and kissing him back, already rocking his hips down to meet the other's. The sound of his voice demanding he say his name makes Kurt feel like he's going to pass out with need.
"Corrigan," the boy moans like a prayer against those plush lips, wings fanned out and fluffy and strong, like he's going to take flight. His hands worship the other man's body, touching his chest, his arms, his shoulders, his neck, his face, like he can't stop himself. "Corrigan, sir, p-please-- please, Corrigan, fuck me. I need to feel you inside me."
God, he's barely thought beyond kissing and Kurt is already there, hard and moving perfectly and driving him insane. Corrigan pulls back, rests his forehead in the crook of Kurt's neck, breathes in the scent of him -- sweat and fabric softener and cologne. Not a trace of anyone else, of any other man who might've been with him earlier that day, or in the days and weeks prior. There's a hot curl of possessiveness in Corrigan's gut, feathers fanning out in reaction to it. He doesn't ever want to smell another man on this boy again.
Pushing that thought aside, he leans back, licking over his kiss swollen lips and reaching to catch one of Kurt's roaming hands. His other arm moves, around Kurt's waist, keeping him from falling backwards, resisting the urge to keep touching him. Expression suddenly serious, he moves the hand he's holding up and back, until he touches the scarred, splintered feathers. His gaze stays firmly on Kurt's face, watching intently.
It isn't that he doesn't trust him. It's just that -- looking at isn't the same as touching. If there's even the tiniest bit of hesitation or repulsion, he can't go any further. He needs to know that Kurt is being wholehearted, that he isn't forcing himself at all.
Kurt isn't sure what to think when Corrigan's strong arm loops around his waist, when that big hand closes over his own, makes him stop his exploration of his body dead in its tracks. The confusion and curiosity is evident on his face, eyes searching Corrigan's abruptly serious expression for answers, not sure he finds any.
Then his hand is lead to Corrigan's wing, fingers made to touch clipped black feathers, and Kurt thinks he understands.
He immediately, eagerly flattens his hand against those feathers, spreading his fingers out, letting as much of his palm touch them as possible. They're strong, he feels the gentle resistance as he presses down against them, running his hand reverently along his wing now that he's allowed. Curling his fingers gently around one of those clipped flight feathers, mirroring the touch to his own feathers from earlier, Kurt lets his warm hand slide slowly down every barb, unafraid, not flinching when the feather comes to an abrupt end.
He looks like he wants to keep touching him. So he does, both hands reaching in to gently comb long fingers through splintered feathers, feeling how they flex at his touch, wanting to see if he can make Corrigan feel good from his hands alone. Kurt recognizes this for all it is. A test and a gift. He relishes the gift, lets himself enjoy it for as long as he has it, and only hopes he passed the test. "Does that feel good, Corrigan?" he asks, equal parts giddy and shy, slowly rolling his hips down against the other's.
It's been years since Corrigan's been with someone else. It's been decades since another person's touched his wings. It feels like -- coming home, like being released, like forgiveness. Kurt's touch is lingering and expert and loving, like he's known exactly how Corrigan longs to be touched since the moment they met. Like he was born to be here, warm and soft in the man's lap, all soft edges and sweet voice and teasing.
Corrigan's forehead drops back to Kurt's shoulder, his breath coming a bit ragged at the delicious, satisfying feel of fingers through and around and over his feathers. It feels obscenely good, like scratching an itch, like sinking into a warm bath. Like a metaphor that his mind can't even think of, so whited out with yes and perfect and more.
Both his hands move, sliding to the hem -- or, at least, what he can approximate is the hem -- of Kurt's excuse for a shirt, curling into the silky, clingy fabric. Under the expert roll of the younger man's hips, Corrigan's so hard it aches. "It feels like I need you to take this off," he mutters, into Kurt's shoulder.
Pleasuring flights may not be part of his training, but he has yet to meet a flight who's much different from a man. Kurt is very good at his job, after all. He can tell how good Corrigan feels from his touch, can hear it in his breath, can feel it in how his feathers shake, fluffing up against his fingers. There are few things in this world that gives Kurt as much pleasure as knowing he's satisfying a man's deepest needs - not just physical needs, but the real ones, the ones deep down, like an itch in their bones. Sometimes a touch is all that's needed.
Corrigan's broad hands tug at his pathetic excuse for a shirt, the words murmured into his skin making the boy sigh happily, wings twitching with need. "Of course, sir," he hums, out of habit more than anything else - after all, he's still in his work uniform, gently rocking his hips down into his boss' lap. Even though he's loathe to stop touching Corrigan's gorgeously responsive wings, Kurt's hands find the end of his silky wrap shirt, making quick work of the garment, unraveling it and dropping it to the floor.
"Is that better?" Kurt arches his spine, slowly rolling his body, knowing the shifting muscles under his flushed, freckled skin make for a very attractive display. His body is amazing, he knows it is. He makes his living and ensures his safety on how amazing his body looks, how well he can use it, how gorgeous silk bonds and delicate black lace looks against his pale skin, his pale wings, knowing what drives men wild. Long fingers find the hem of his pants, just as loose and silky as the top, teasing them down the sharp jut of his hips to reveal that he's not wearing anything underneath. "Or do you maybe feel like a little more?"
Thank god Kurt knows how that ridiculous excuse for a shirt goes together, because Corrigan would most likely have just torn it to bits to get it off. He's still thinking that way regarding the pants, though having the unbridled access to lean forward, nuzzle his stubbly cheek against Kurt's bare chest is distracting him for the time being. He hums, low in his throat, nearly a crooning sound at the warmth, the scent of his skin. It's perfect. He's perfect.
The teasing gets a soft huff of sound, Corrigan's inky wings shuttering around again, arching gracefully, feathers brushing lightly against Kurt's shoulders, grazing his upper arm as he does so. "In a moment," Corrigan murmurs against Kurt's chest, over his heart, hands sliding down his sides, like he can't possibly touch him enough. "Take your time. You have time. We have time."
Then he lifts his chin, looks up at Kurt out of heavy-lidded, soft eyes, making that sound in his throat again. It's like a warble, a cooing, affectionate sound. A flocking, flight-like sound. "Touch me," he says, soft, a request.
Kurt's head tips backwards as Corrigan buries his face against his chest, breathing him in, feeling the warmth of his skin against his own. It feels so good. The touch in itself is almost innocent, a gentle nuzzle, a soft rumbling hum, but it feels otherworldly when paired with the way their wings bump and collide, the strength of the body underneath him, against him. It makes Kurt feel small and held and enveloped, completely forgetting how unsafe he'd felt when stepping into the boss' office.
Those big hands smoothing down his sides feel divine, Kurt arching fluidly into Corrigan's touch, his hands, his face, wanting to drown himself in sensation. The soft reminder that they have all the time in the world are swiftly disregarded - Kurt is too impatient to internalize having more time than the very moment he's living right now - in favor of latching onto Corrigan's soft cooing warble, the request for touch.
"Yes, sir, of course," he moans, quiet and reverent, hands once more finding the older man's body. He fans his fingers out over his chest, explores the vast expanse of golden skin eagerly, without judgment, just feeling him against his palms. One hand slips around to his back once more, passing over scars of past trauma without hesitation to slowly bury his fingers in those tiny sensitive tertiary feathers, touching and pressing and raking his nails ever so gently over the skin and joint. His other hand slips between their bodies, over Corrigan's taut stomach and further down, cupping his cock through his pants. "Like this? Does this feel good?"

Date: 2020-12-09 06:14 pm (UTC)Naturally. Even though Mr. Molloy is one of them, he's still Kurt's boss. Brushing wings, holding hands - even though he's gone through a frightening incident on the clock, that kind of contact is totally inappropriate. Kurt scolds himself for wanting that kind of comfort.
The panic on his face when Corrigan says he's off the roster is palpable and immediate, as is the relief smoothing over that burst of fear when he clarifies he hasn't been fired. The whole boy deflates, like something has come loose inside him, a trembling hand coming up to wipe at his flushed cheek before any tears have fallen.
"Y-Yes, sir, I understand," he mumbles, feeling uneasy about not working but still understanding why it has to be done. He doesn't want to encourage anyone else seeking him out to hurt him, just because of the color of his wings. He doesn't want anyone else to get hurt because of him either. "What... H-How do we weed these people out, sir? Can we even do that? What if they go after someone else?" Even though he comes from the midwest, Kurt doesn't really know how to deal with religious nuts.

Date: 2020-12-09 11:33 pm (UTC)Instead he clears his throat, sitting back on his heels, feathers brushing the carpet. "We'll -- figure something out. People like that are insane, but they're not usually stupid." Too well-organized and controlled to be stupid. Cults always have a leader, and a good leader makes good decisions. "They're easily intimidated by the usual things -- power, money, status. If you had a particularly powerful client, they wouldn't touch you."
Of course, that would be difficult since Kurt isn't on the roster anymore. Corrigan is quiet for a moment, wings rustling absently in thought. Then the solution occurs, so obvious it almost makes him laugh: "Me. I'll say you're mine."
no subject
Date: 2020-12-09 11:50 pm (UTC)"What?" Mr. Molloy's suggestion makes Kurt's eyes go wide - and his cheeks go bright red, feathers fluffing out noticeably, something he immediately and vehemently ignores. Corrigan Molloy would go out and claim he's a client of Kurt's? Even though it's a lie to keep him safe, the thought still makes the young man feel like his insides have gone liquid. Mr. Molloy is dark, powerful, mysterious, and devastatingly attractive. And a flight at that. Kurt's exact type.
"B-But sir, doesn't that make you a target, then?" he asks, groomed brows pulling together in a soft frown. He scoots a little forward in the chair, inching closer to his boss. "If they think you're in the way. I-I'm not sure how scared they are of money and status, I mean... They came into your establishment, after all, they threatened your property."
As much as it makes his stomach turn to label himself as property, it's the god's honest truth. "I don't know about this, sir... Is this going to be safe?"
no subject
Date: 2020-12-10 12:53 am (UTC)Still. "I've always been a target. But they're -- afraid of me in a way they wouldn't be of anyone else. It's one thing for you to be a worker, but it's another for me to...stake a definite, deliberate claim. Besides," he adds, unconsciously inching closer, wings furling out again, hovering closer and closer with each word. "It solves the problem of what we tell the staff. You being under extra surveillance because of a potential attack is the kind of thing that could get out easily. Gossip is as dangerous as box cutters."
Then he softens, letting the very tips of his dark feathers brush against Kurt's, gentle, almost hesitant. "It will. I'm not going to let anything happen to you, all right?"
no subject
Date: 2020-12-10 01:10 am (UTC)Is that what irony is? Kurt's always struggled to tell.
Kurt has to actively remind himself that they're putting on a front here, because hearing Mr. Molloy utter the words 'stake a definite, deliberate claim' in regards to him makes his wings fluff up even bigger, downy feathers poofing out gently. Trying to will it away is like willing away goosebumps, it just doesn't work like that. So he sits there as his boss inches closer, his mouth a little dry as those dark wings slowly unfurls, blushing and fluffing softly as he's told nothing is going to happen to him.
Inky black feathers brush over snowy white, like fingertips shyly meeting, and Kurt shivers. It feels like fireworks. "All right. I-- I trust you, sir," he says earnestly, leaning closer for emphasis, wings gently reaching out to touch Corrigan's - unafraid, unaffected by the state of them. "Thank you."
no subject
Date: 2020-12-10 01:46 am (UTC)"You're welcome," very absently, still thinking over the logistics. They have to make it as realistic as possible. As believable as possible. It's one thing for a fringe group to go after a new, untested, inexperienced worker, it's another for them to make an attempt on the boss's favorite. "You'll -- have to move into my room. For a bit."
He glances up then, clearing his throat in embarrassment at his unconsciously affectionate behavior, moving his wing away. "Ah, but you won't -- that is, you don't. I won't. Force you to do anything you don't want to. If you -- catch my meaning." Owner of a specialty fetish brothel, not able to talk about sex plainly, right here.
no subject
Date: 2020-12-10 02:06 am (UTC)So when his boss pulls his wing away, Kurt whines unconsciously at the loss, white wings momentarily chasing that touch before he catches himself. He doesn't want to make a fool of himself, not in front of Mr. Molloy.
Not when he's going to be moving in with him. Spending all this time with him. Pretending... Well, who says he has to pretend? "Oh. But, sir, I want to work, I want to be the best at my job, and... and it sounds like I have a new client to take care of for a bit." Kurt still feels a little shy, blushing, knocking ankles, but you'd have to be blind not to see how puffy his wings are with interest. "I haven't had my performance review yet, but I can assure you, I'm very good at my job."
no subject
Date: 2020-12-10 04:38 pm (UTC)Still, he almost asks why?, glancing towards his scarred wings silently and meaningfully. Most people -- winged or otherwise -- wouldn't want to go near him in this state. Too many questions, too disturbing, too upsetting. All he says aloud though, is: "You've had excellent reviews, yes. I don't think you need to worry about your performance."
Reluctantly, Corrigan pulls his wings back, standing up and picking up the discarded bandages again. He keeps his back towards Kurt, feathers fluffed up slightly, which just increases the overall size of his wings. "Still. I don't -- want you to force yourself. That isn't my goal here."
no subject
Date: 2020-12-10 04:55 pm (UTC)There's a strong pull in his gut to follow Corrigan when he rises to his feet, turning his back to him. Kurt wants to run his pale fingers over those dark feathers, marvel at the stunning contrast they make. He wants to make Mr. Molloy sigh with pleasure and arch into his touch, chase his talented fingers, see just why Cassiel gets such excellent reviews.
But he knows the importance of consent better than most. He won't touch Corrigan if he doesn't want to be - and it sure sounds like he doesn't want to be touched. But whether that's because he's anticipating rejection or because he's genuinely not interested in Kurt, is hard to tell.
"You assume I have to force myself to want to sleep with you, sir," Kurt says softly, nervous fingers tracing the hem of his drapey top. His eyes are following the curved lines of Corrigan's wings - they're huge, and when you're able to see past the damage, really attractive. He thinks he spies those feathers fluffing up, but it could be a trick of the light. "That's not the case, I can assure you. But if you're not interested, that's fine." A soft laugh. "It's just a front, right? To avoid copycats. It's fine."
no subject
Date: 2020-12-10 09:16 pm (UTC)"You assume I'm not interested. Clearly we both have an issue with assumption." His expression softens, eyes staying firmly locked with Kurt's, rather than wandering, like they want to. That top leaves little to the imagination, and all he wants to do is reach out. He wants it so badly he can taste it. "Even if it's a front, it's not going to be difficult to keep up the impression that I want you." He pauses, clearing his throat a couple times.
"But I've...been in your position before." That's also news -- everyone has whispered about the boss's mysterious origins, whether he started as a low-level worker and just climbed (or slept) his way to the top, or if he'd came into the business privileged and powerful. The assumption has always been that the latter is true. "And there was...not anyone to watch out for my best interests." Corrigan lets himself step closer, reaches out, this time with his hand, cupping Kurt's chin and tipping it upwards. "That's always going to be my first priority. And if being with me compromises that, then I will...make that sacrifice."
no subject
Date: 2020-12-10 10:19 pm (UTC)But his boss locks eyes with him and confesses he's been where Kurt is now, making sure the young man understands the gravity of this situation, that his vulnerable position isn't something to be taken lightly or brushed off because your boss wants to sleep with you. Kurt draws a shaky breath. Fidgets with his top. Wonders without meaning to if Corrigan's injuries are from his time in Kurt's place. The thought makes his stomach turn, and he desperately tries to push it away, not wanting to frighten himself, not wanting Mr. Molloy to think he pities him.
He gasps softly as Corrigan takes him by the chin, surrendering to the touch, not breaking that firmly established eye contact. It makes him feel a lot safer, knowing he has Mr. Molloy batting for him, but the thought of anyone making sacrifices makes him uneasy. It's just one weird Jesus freak, right? How bad can it really be? Still, he'll take the protection the name Corrigan Molloy offers any day of the week. "Thank you, sir," he says softly, a hand reaching out to gently smooth over the man's thigh, his hip, so conveniently within reach. "I'd, um... request no one makes any sacrifices, if at all possible," he adds with a quiet laugh.
no subject
Date: 2020-12-11 01:16 am (UTC)"You're going to be trouble for me," he says, softly, voice heavy with that barely repressed wanting and amusement. "Good trouble. But trouble." Behind him, his wings are fanning out, no longer self-conscious or shameful, spreading as much as they can in the small room. Like this, held properly, even the splintered feathers aren't as noticeable as the healthy ones, as the leanly corded muscle rippled with scars, as the presence Corrigan has, even just standing still in the middle of the room. "C'mere."
no subject
Date: 2020-12-11 01:40 am (UTC)Kurt loves to please. Part of what makes him exceptional at his job. Something in his brain is just wired differently - maybe it's because of the wings, maybe not - making him want to trip over himself to please and serve if beckoned by the right people. Mr. Molloy is absolutely the right people.
"Oh no, sir, I'm not like that at all. I'm not the kind of boy to be any trouble," he teases, rising to stand and pressing his body against Corrigan's. He's so big and firm against him, made even bigger by the maddeningly hot display of his wings fully unfurling, unashamed and stunning. Kurt doesn't get to be with fellow flights very often. His wings fan out too, so white and soft, feathers flexing shyly.
"Please, sir. I want you to kiss me."
no subject
Date: 2020-12-11 07:04 am (UTC)The hand on the young man's chin stays where it is, but the other one slides up his back, over the draping layers of fabric, nails grazing over the sensitive spot where feathers and skin meet. Corrigan strokes through the plush, velvet-soft feathers he's been admiring for months without letting himself touch, letting out a soft, pleased moan of sound into Kurt's mouth, tongue slipping past his lips. He tastes as good as he looks, feels incredible as he shivers closer to Corrigan's hard, muscled body, as those angel wings of his flare out, brilliant, gleaming white. Corrigan slides his fingers through the feathers, curling his hand around one of the long flight ones, letting it sliiiiide through inch by inch. "Pretty, pretty liar."
no subject
Date: 2020-12-13 01:17 am (UTC)Against his wings. Right at his scapular feathers, pillowy soft and yielding to touch and absolutely the most sensitive ones. The boy moans, a high and needy sound against Corrigan's invading tongue, arching his body into the other's, holding onto his hips for dear life. It feels so good, like a tickle in his spine, making his knees buckle and his wings fan out with pleasure, brushing against Corrigan's where they form a protective circle around him.
"Sir--" Kurt moans as his boss slowly runs his fingers down one of his primaries, teasing, absolutely dragging it out on purpose. He shudders, instinctive. Even after almost six months of this, his wings are still so sensitive - but naturally, Corrigan's touch is unlike any other. "Feels so good, sir. Ah, m-more, please. Please, touch me more."
no subject
Date: 2020-12-13 04:11 am (UTC)And, of course, there's nothing quite like being touched by someone who knows what feels good, who knows how to make you lose your mind with pleasure. Corrigan knows some of the employees spend time with each other, craving that exact freedom of touch that can't be present when you're in the middle of a business exchange. He knows they'll flock together -- pun intended -- preening and stroking each other's feathers, desperate to satisfy some taboo instinct that's been sexualized beyond recovery.
He wants Kurt, wants him in a purely animalistic, primal way he's never wanted anyone before, but he also knows that craving to be touched, to be held like you aren't something to be purchased or something to be recoiled from. So he runs his hand back through the tertial feathers close to Kurt's skin, up to the tiny scapular ones, fingers sliding between them to the base of each quill. He can feel them fluffing out in pleasure, can feel Kurt's smaller wingspan brushing against his own. He nuzzles into the crook of the younger man's neck, breathes him in, obeys the soft, pleading words without a second thought. He never wants to stop touching him.
no subject
Date: 2020-12-13 10:49 pm (UTC)And while it's been a while since Corrigan has been intimate with anyone, he sure could've fooled the young flight, because it feels like he too really knows. Kurt whimpers softly, pressing his barely clothed chest against Corrigan's bare one, fingers trembling against the sharp jut of his hips, the front of those soft pants starting to strain.
"Sir," the boy moans, wings flexing and fluffing from Corrigan's touch, so impatient for touch he chases those broad, strong hands. His own hands start moving up the man's chiseled body, relishing how broad he is, how firm and strong those muscles are, all along his stomach and waist and ribs and chest, all the way up his back, to the very base of those wings. Any scars, any hint of old trauma, are touched the same as the rest of him - with curiosity, patience, reverence, hot impatience bubbling just under the surface.
"I want to touch you. W-Want you to feel this good too, sir, want to hear you feel good. Please," it's mumbled between kisses pressed to his neck, his shoulder. His fingers press against his skin, just shy of the base of his wings, waiting for consent to be given. "Please, let me touch you."
no subject
Date: 2020-12-16 12:12 am (UTC)-- well, he can close his eyes when he ducks to kiss Kurt again, this time far less innocent. He lets a hint of the bone-deep hunger he feels creep into how his tongue curls into Kurt's mouth, swallows up his sweet, pleading voice. The hand buried in those soft feathers curls, nails scraping over the base of each quill, a pleasure-pain that's almost too much to bear.
"Say my name," he murmurs when he pulls back to breathe, when he shifts to sit on the desk, knocking books and papers haphazardly to the ground. His hands are big, rough, demanding on Kurt's waist, pulling him up and into his lap, kissing him again and again. "Say it."
no subject
Date: 2020-12-16 01:01 am (UTC)Biological, probably. It could explain why he melts so easily into Corrigan's hungry kiss, claiming him completely. It could explain why that touch of pain to his most sensitive place makes him arch and cry out, his knees buckling, his cock twitching with need in those barely-there filmy pants, hiding all of nothing. It could explain why he follows so eagerly into his employer's lap, holding onto his broad shoulders, whimpering and kissing him back, already rocking his hips down to meet the other's. The sound of his voice demanding he say his name makes Kurt feel like he's going to pass out with need.
"Corrigan," the boy moans like a prayer against those plush lips, wings fanned out and fluffy and strong, like he's going to take flight. His hands worship the other man's body, touching his chest, his arms, his shoulders, his neck, his face, like he can't stop himself. "Corrigan, sir, p-please-- please, Corrigan, fuck me. I need to feel you inside me."
no subject
Date: 2020-12-16 01:54 am (UTC)Pushing that thought aside, he leans back, licking over his kiss swollen lips and reaching to catch one of Kurt's roaming hands. His other arm moves, around Kurt's waist, keeping him from falling backwards, resisting the urge to keep touching him. Expression suddenly serious, he moves the hand he's holding up and back, until he touches the scarred, splintered feathers. His gaze stays firmly on Kurt's face, watching intently.
It isn't that he doesn't trust him. It's just that -- looking at isn't the same as touching. If there's even the tiniest bit of hesitation or repulsion, he can't go any further. He needs to know that Kurt is being wholehearted, that he isn't forcing himself at all.
no subject
Date: 2020-12-16 11:12 pm (UTC)Then his hand is lead to Corrigan's wing, fingers made to touch clipped black feathers, and Kurt thinks he understands.
He immediately, eagerly flattens his hand against those feathers, spreading his fingers out, letting as much of his palm touch them as possible. They're strong, he feels the gentle resistance as he presses down against them, running his hand reverently along his wing now that he's allowed. Curling his fingers gently around one of those clipped flight feathers, mirroring the touch to his own feathers from earlier, Kurt lets his warm hand slide slowly down every barb, unafraid, not flinching when the feather comes to an abrupt end.
He looks like he wants to keep touching him. So he does, both hands reaching in to gently comb long fingers through splintered feathers, feeling how they flex at his touch, wanting to see if he can make Corrigan feel good from his hands alone. Kurt recognizes this for all it is. A test and a gift. He relishes the gift, lets himself enjoy it for as long as he has it, and only hopes he passed the test. "Does that feel good, Corrigan?" he asks, equal parts giddy and shy, slowly rolling his hips down against the other's.
no subject
Date: 2020-12-18 01:22 am (UTC)Corrigan's forehead drops back to Kurt's shoulder, his breath coming a bit ragged at the delicious, satisfying feel of fingers through and around and over his feathers. It feels obscenely good, like scratching an itch, like sinking into a warm bath. Like a metaphor that his mind can't even think of, so whited out with yes and perfect and more.
Both his hands move, sliding to the hem -- or, at least, what he can approximate is the hem -- of Kurt's excuse for a shirt, curling into the silky, clingy fabric. Under the expert roll of the younger man's hips, Corrigan's so hard it aches. "It feels like I need you to take this off," he mutters, into Kurt's shoulder.
no subject
Date: 2020-12-22 06:45 pm (UTC)Corrigan's broad hands tug at his pathetic excuse for a shirt, the words murmured into his skin making the boy sigh happily, wings twitching with need. "Of course, sir," he hums, out of habit more than anything else - after all, he's still in his work uniform, gently rocking his hips down into his boss' lap. Even though he's loathe to stop touching Corrigan's gorgeously responsive wings, Kurt's hands find the end of his silky wrap shirt, making quick work of the garment, unraveling it and dropping it to the floor.
"Is that better?" Kurt arches his spine, slowly rolling his body, knowing the shifting muscles under his flushed, freckled skin make for a very attractive display. His body is amazing, he knows it is. He makes his living and ensures his safety on how amazing his body looks, how well he can use it, how gorgeous silk bonds and delicate black lace looks against his pale skin, his pale wings, knowing what drives men wild. Long fingers find the hem of his pants, just as loose and silky as the top, teasing them down the sharp jut of his hips to reveal that he's not wearing anything underneath. "Or do you maybe feel like a little more?"
no subject
Date: 2020-12-27 06:01 am (UTC)The teasing gets a soft huff of sound, Corrigan's inky wings shuttering around again, arching gracefully, feathers brushing lightly against Kurt's shoulders, grazing his upper arm as he does so. "In a moment," Corrigan murmurs against Kurt's chest, over his heart, hands sliding down his sides, like he can't possibly touch him enough. "Take your time. You have time. We have time."
Then he lifts his chin, looks up at Kurt out of heavy-lidded, soft eyes, making that sound in his throat again. It's like a warble, a cooing, affectionate sound. A flocking, flight-like sound. "Touch me," he says, soft, a request.
no subject
Date: 2021-01-02 01:10 am (UTC)Those big hands smoothing down his sides feel divine, Kurt arching fluidly into Corrigan's touch, his hands, his face, wanting to drown himself in sensation. The soft reminder that they have all the time in the world are swiftly disregarded - Kurt is too impatient to internalize having more time than the very moment he's living right now - in favor of latching onto Corrigan's soft cooing warble, the request for touch.
"Yes, sir, of course," he moans, quiet and reverent, hands once more finding the older man's body. He fans his fingers out over his chest, explores the vast expanse of golden skin eagerly, without judgment, just feeling him against his palms. One hand slips around to his back once more, passing over scars of past trauma without hesitation to slowly bury his fingers in those tiny sensitive tertiary feathers, touching and pressing and raking his nails ever so gently over the skin and joint. His other hand slips between their bodies, over Corrigan's taut stomach and further down, cupping his cock through his pants. "Like this? Does this feel good?"
