Something's missing.

Kieren can't put his finger on what's going on, but he has the strange, sneaking suspicion that something is happening. He shakes his head and goes back to his sketching, dabbing his fingers slowly with his thumb and frowning when he sees the strange black liquid coming out of his nose. He shakes his head and ignores it, going back to sketching Sirius without any of his clothes.

He smiles, faintly, as his thoughts turn to his boyfriend, still getting used to that thought. And more than that, the faint delighted prickle doesn't even feel imagined.

Maybe he'll call Sirius soon and invite him over for something, like a movie. There, again, is that feeling, like he's missed something big.

Sirius watches attentively, the little machine making a quiet buzz-click every time Kieren taps the screen. He looks down at it once Kieren's handed it back, skimming through each picture with a delighted smile. They don't move at all, but Sirius finds he's no less pleased by them and can only hope they won't disappear somehow after a time.

He moves then, pushing off the table to sit beside Kieren once more on the sofa. Holding his mobile in one hand, he squirms closer and then extends his arm, the contraption precariously positioned as well as he can as he presses his face close to Kieren's. "D'you think we can get us both in it?"

Kieren steals the mobile from him and then leans in closer, pressing himself cheek to cheek with Sirius. Laughing, Sirius grins up at the little lens thing on the phone, his smile spreading all the wider when he feels Kieren's lips against his cheek.

"Oh, did that one work?" he asks, his cheek still tingling a bit when he turns to grin at Kieren. "Might need to print it if so. That's what it's called, isn't it? Printing?"

"And paper the town with them?" he asks, delighted as he settles back into the sofa again, drawing Kieren with him. It's comfortable, he notes. Comfortable in a way he's not sure he's ever experienced with anyone before and he reaches his other hand across to touch Kieren's pale, gorgeous, gangly thigh. "We'll make everyone jealous, you know. And possibly annoyed, though I do so love doing that."

"With the possible exception of your Rick," Sirius remarks with a small smile. Sirius has been praised for his looks all his life; he's aware many find him attractive. Somehow, though, all those opinions mean very little compared to Kieren's. He remembers well their first date when Kieren had remarked on Sirius's good looks being up for debate and how it had stung just a little.

Apparently, it's only taken some time to win him over.

"Must say, I'm a bit worried he might show up here some day," he admits, staring down at his hand on Kieren's thigh. "I'd lose you in a heart beat. So to speak."

Even if there's no way of telling what might truly happen if either Simon or Rick were to show up, Sirius can't deny that Kieren's words soothe him. It's perhaps even more selfish than every physical aspect of their relationship, wanting Kieren to choose him over the men he loved first, but he can't seem to help it.

And that realization is a bit terrifying all on its own.

He leans in then, brushing his lips to the corner of Kieren's mouth. "If I ever met either of them, I can't promise I won't curse them on sight," he says, his voice a low tease. "Only a little though. Probably."

"Oh, nothing fatal," Sirius assures him, lips twisting into a slight smirk at the idea. Kieren's kiss lingers on his lips and he shrugs. "Just possibly a pox or two, make them trip over their own feet for awhile or make them all embarrassingly tongue-tied. That sorta thing."

It's childish, he knows. Remus would tell him so right from the start, but Sirius can't help but entertain the notion all the same. What good is there in being a wizard without the opportunity to be a little stupid sometimes?

"Oh, that'd be easy as anything," Sirius grins, dropping his hand into Kieren's and entwining their fingers. "Could make both any color you could think of, in fact. Maybe Rick would be better off with rainbow hair, come to think of it. Bet that'd suit him."

Sirius blinks, strangely surprised by the question. "Oh, I hadn't thought to," he admits, his smile faltering just a bit into a frown. "I could, yeah. It wouldn't be permanent; the spell wears off after a time. Do you want me to?"

It's not the first time Kieren's mentioned the true color of his eyes and, for a moment, Sirius regrets not having thought of it first. Suggesting it. But the truth is, as odd as Kieren's eyes had seemed at the start, he's well used to them now. If anything, he has a hard time imagining them any other way than exactly as they are.

Kieren looks a bit uncertain for a moment, but his nod is unmistakable.

Letting to of Kieren's hand, Sirius leans over to pick his trousers up off the floor, fishing his wand out of the back pocket. "Is just your eyes you want changed?" he asks, turning back to Kieren. "Or your skin, too? I can make it look a bit more... tanned."

"Few hours, I think," Sirius says, still watching Kieren almost warily. He's only ever used this spell a couple of times as a true disguise. Ordinarily, it's intended as a means to have a bit of a laugh, not for actual realism. "How brown do you want your eyes to be? And should I try to match the shade of your mousse for your skin?"
thebloodtraitor: (brick)

There's so much in those three little words and Sirius feels a coil of anxiety wind tight in his belly. The last people to trust him ended up dead. Kieren's already dead in some ways, but that doesn't mean Sirius can't still fuck this up. It doesn't mean that at all.

He pulls in a deep breath and then mutters a quick spell as he gives a flick of his wrist. Instantly, Kieren's skin turns from ashy pale to a color much closer to Sirius's own and the white irises of his eyes turn a rich brown. "Alright," he says, lowering his hand, his heart beating strangely fast. "Have a look then."

Kieren pushes up off the couch and Sirius stays where he is a moment, watching, before slowly getting to his feet himself, wand still in one hand in case Kieren doesn't like what he sees and needs the spell reversed. He steps up behind Kieren, staring at his reflection, at the look on Kieren's face.

He doesn't look disappointed, at least. Or terribly scared. Slowly, Sirius smiles and rests his hands on Kieren's sides. "Yeah? So is this what you looked like before then? Or close to it?"
