...and now Tae-gun's being reminded that his boyfriend is smoking hot. That's the problem with showering together.

"Need I remind you again that I am free-use Jaeha and you can fuck me whenever you want?"

"We have work tomorrow morning."

"Are you saying we can't get a quickie in?"

"I'm saying if I put my hands on you it's not going to be a quickie."

"I feel so threatened." 

"We are not having any more sex today," Tae-gun declares, and that's that.

Jaeha laughs but drops the issue. He's not particularly raring for it, it's just a lot of fun to mess with Tae-gun.

...not that he'd say no. Tae-gun's got him in the palm of his hand, Jaeha will do anything Tae-gun asks.

(That's really, really scary.)

They finish showering then Jaeha bids Tae-gun wait in the bedroom while he goes to a different room to fetch Tae-gun's birthday present. When he comes back he's carrying two wrapped gift boxes: one is about as wide and half as long as Tae-gun's forearm, and the other is much wider but not very tall and somewhat flat.

He gives Tae-gun the smaller one first.

...alright...

He'll unwrap it, he guesses?

It's a beautifully ornamented carved wooden box, and there is a long metal knife inside with carvings in the same style.

But before Tae-gun can say anything he takes it from him and gives Tae-gun the bigger box, which is big enough Tae-gun will need to actually lay it on the bed to properly unwrap.

What the... a knife? Bwuh? Okay, he did not expect that, he's not even sure whether he likes it or not, it's just so insane.

Alright, what's the second gift?

A glass casing containing twin swords, also beautifully carved, the style that's pretty enough it ought to be hung on a wall somewhere.

"They're real," he explains. "They're pretty but they're also real. I think they have a good weight distribution and balance for dual-wielding, they won't break or get damaged even if you go really hard on them. The knife, too, for a different style. I figured that you could use them to practise your melee combat, and you could maybe use them as inspiration for when you conjure your own ice blades, since there's a lot of history and expertise in the world about how to forge effective—"

Tae-gun finds himself on top of Jaeha shutting him up with a violent, hungry kiss.

It turns out he was wrong; they are having any more sex today.

Park Yoo-min lets out a long, low whistle as he looks at the swords Tae-gun's brought to the Quasar gym. "They're beautiful. Do they have names?"

...it had not occurred to him that he ought to name his swords? "No."

"Call them Left and Right."

"No."

"Kang Jaeha got them for you?"

"Yeah."

"After you went through all that trouble to convince us to not get you birthday presents. Is it because he's prettier than us?"

"Yes."

"That is pure slander. I'll have you know no one's prettier than Seungjoo."
