[He's observant enough to notice that detail, but then remembers what he heard about Grimm being considered a God of Nightmares, and then that sort of makes sense why the bed doesn't appear to be one that was slept in.]
... A little.
[He will actually admit to that, even if it is a little embarrassing. He hasn't been intimate with someone in their bedroom for... a long time. Possibly never depending on if Episode 0 suddenly crawls out of the woodwork to say so, who knows.]
[The affirmation of taking this slowly, and the resulting kiss against his jaw and the part of his neck Grimm is able to reach he means. He reaches his hands back up where he had them before on the couch, though he's moved one hand to put against the back of Grimm's neck, while the other is the one that returns to touching his face, gently moving his thumb up and down them to feel the groove of the scar against his skin.]
[It's a deep and old scar, and it makes Grimm shudder when it's touched so gently. Danny has located one (1) weak spot.
Good, he says, so Grimm dots more kisses over his skin. Carefully, he reaches to undo Danny's tie and pull it off of him, setting it neatly to one side. He thumbs at the first button of his shirt, waiting for permission.]
[Danny is a weirdo who wears a lot of layers though, he's going to need to remove the coat and vest too first. When Grimm gets to the last remaining layer though of his shirt, he does hesitate momentarily, but... well.
Angela saw his scars a few days ago, and she didn't seem to find them ugly. And that was his co-worker... if Grimm likes him as much as he says he does, then maybe he won't either? At least that's the thought that manages to crawl past the usual sludge of self-loathing that takes up residence in his mind half the time.
So he nods, and drops his hands down and out of the way to let Grimm start trying to remove his shirt. Upon doing so, Grimm will finally get to see Danny's scars he had been hiding under there in the form of what appears to be old stab wounds, a gun shot wound... shots from bolts fired out of a crossbow, if Grimm is capable of recognizing that sort of thing. Danny has sort of averted his gaze towards the wall behind Grimm's head once his scars are out in the open, because there is the underlying fear regardless that even though Grimm has scars, at least his are debatably cool. Ours just makes us look worse, he thinks.]
There are a lot of scars here. Grimm can understand how and why Danny might be concerned that he would be found ugly, but - Grimm places soft kisses over his scars, each and every one of them in turn.]
[Well now you see why he wears so many fucking layers all the time, Grimm.
The press of lips against the scars, along with the words, cause a strange sort of hitch in his breathing. Not quite the "turned on" hitch (tho, he is kind of turned on by this right now), but dangerously close to the kind you hear from someone who might be trying to not start crying.
Partly relief that Grimm didn't say something bad about them, and partly from how undeserved that relief is, because he isn't lovely at all, the scars are proof of that. That he's someone most people want nothing to do with, and for good reasons. Not that he plans on telling him what those reasons are, but it's still an ugly feeling of guilt that weighs heavy in his chest upon hearing those words.]
[That just makes him actually cry, and for a moment he brings a hand up, using the heel of his palm to try to get his eyes to stop doing that right the fuck now.]
I'm--I'm sorry, that's not what I meant to do. Just... give me a minute.
[This is embarrassing, and he hates that he didn't shove that emotion straight down to the bottom of his priorities until he was alone and could deal with it then rather than in front of Grimm here.]
[No, he won't, because Grimm will eventually find out someday the things he's done, both at home, and even still doing here to some degree. It's an inevitability, simply a matter of "when" rather than "never" finding out, he thinks.
But Danny doesn't say anything, instead allows himself to lean against Grimm and (perhaps selfishly) accept the close hold being given here as he breathes and tries to regain whatever semblance of calm he's capable of that doesn't involve crying. It takes more than the allotted minute he had asked for, but when he finally speaks again, he does at least sound like he's managed something close to "okay" again.]
... I'm sorry. That was... really embarrassing of me there...
[He is worried however that he might have just killed the mood a fair bit with that.]
[As nice as the offer is, there's a mild feeling of shame in his gut at it.
However, he does end up quietly lying back now, as he doesn't really want to be sitting up anymore anyway. He still had his hands around Grimm so he ends up trying to bring the bug down with him, on top of him as he does so. Even if Grimm ends up deciding not to pick things back up again, Danny still kind of wants to feel what it's like having them on top of him here regardless for a moment.
He's also never really cuddled before, so maybe he's doing that wrong too, but Danny can't bring himself to care about that right now.]
[Grimm is a good bit lighter than a human of his height would be, so having him on top of Danny shouldn't be too uncomfortable. He nuzzles against the crook of Danny's shoulder, pressing lazy kisses there. And, as always, he's pleasantly warm.
He cards a hand through Danny's hair again, massaging gently.]
[He is certainly lighter than expected, but the warmth more than makes up for it. Being such a cold person his whole life tends to make one crave it more than anything.
He breathes out a pleased sigh when Grimm starts playing with his hair again. His hands still mostly linger from where he had wrapped his arms around Grim in an embrace, though he does vaguely wonder if he can reach Grimm's wings from this angle to try brushing with his fingers, just to feel the texture for a moment.]
[Given how close Grimm is against him, Danny will probably end up feeling that against his slacks he still has on here, which, wow ok. He doesn't keep moving his hands on Grimm's wings, but he doesn't remove them yet either.]
[It is awkward, and this would probably no longer be seen as cuddling if he kept going with it.
Still... the wings are surprisingly soft against his skin. And maybe he can redeem himself a little for killing the mood earlier, so instead of taking the offered out, Danny starts to gently run his fingers over Grimm's wings again from where he's able to reach here.]
Very fine, considering the way it draws a raspy groan out of him. His aedeagus fully emerges, pressing up against Danny's body.]
Allow me to, mm, return the favor.
[Danny has no wings, so instead Grimm runs his hands over Danny's chest, pausing to thumb over his nipples and test whether that gets a particularly good reaction.]
[At least this time Danny doesn't react as badly as he did with kissing his scars, as he makes a rather embarrassing moan when his nipples are being touched and played with. He's still not used to people touching that area, let alone any other part of his chest, so they are indeed pretty sensitive. Almost makes one forget that Grimm's bug dick is now very definitely pressed up against him, but not for very long given the way he shifts his hips up at the sensation.
His fingers end up accidentally pinching a little harder rather than the soft brushing touch he had been giving Grimm's wings as a result as well--not enough to hurt him, he hopes, because despite being the kind of person he is, he was never that cruel kid who liked to grab at or even tear the wings off moths and butterflies like some other children did back then.]
[It might not hurt, but it is a lot, and it makes Grimm's hips jerk at the sensation, rutting up against Danny. He moans, not loud enough to drown out the delicious sounds that Danny is making right now.
Grimm rubs over Danny's nipples even more in retaliation. He's still not used to his partners having their dicks out All The Time instead of only when they're ready to become more inimate, so he errs on the side of arousal when it comes to working Danny up first.]
[Look it's not our fault that human evolution didn't realize how having our dicks out all the time might be an issue, that's why we have to settle for wearing pants. Which, if this keeps up, Danny might need to remove before they end up getting potentially ruined.
But even if that thought has occurred to him, he hasn't made a move to do so yet as he continues to try to lift his hips to meet Grimm's. It's a bit of an uncoordinated rhythm at the moment but listen, he's trying. Especially as he finally moves his head here so that he can press his lips against whatever part of Grimm's face he can reach.]
[It's uncoordinated and messy, but it feels too good as Grimm slots his hips against Danny's. Every kiss is returned twice over on Danny's face and neck.]
[He actually smiles a little though as he says it, which may perhaps come off as a bit cheeky. Still, getting him to slide down his pants and boxers out of the way at this point involves less hesitation than getting him to take off the shirt, given that Grimm has for the most part already seen and touched our dick before.
And thankfully he doesn't have any obnoxious scars on his legs to worry about being seen, save for just one of those cross-bolt scars from when Gray tried to shoot him in the leg.]
