[it's not a particularly seductive striptease, but it's not hurried either, just taking his time to get all the little bits and pieces out of the way so it comes off without much trouble. the robes are certainly more complicated than they were back when they first met
Arias has certainly gained more muscle, though lean it still is. there's more obvious strength here, across his shoulders and down his torso. not incredibly defined, he could certainly do with more meals, but it's a definite change from the softness he once had.
more importantly, perhaps, is that his skin is not pristine, scars here and there, though more of them are from likely magical fire or lightning than from any blade. there's no modesty about them, but they're there all the same]
[if Miqo'te purred, Raha would be. his satisfaction is currently eclipsing his thirst, and he maps Arias' body with his crimson gaze, overjoyed at being allowed to drink him in.
once his warrior is totally bare, though, he's sidling in close again. pressing close to kiss him and also feel out his body with mismatched fingers, gentle enough to be nearly ticklish.]
[Arias kisses him back, sighing softly in pleasure at the affection apparent in his touches. it's satisfying, holding G'raha close, trading kisses like this, but sooner rather than later, his hands slide up G'raha's back and around to the front to start undoing the robes still on him.]
[G'raha makes a pleased sound, arching slightly into the feeling of Arias' hands through his clothing, though he stills and behaves once actual fiddling has to be done. He certainly doesn't want to slow down the process of undressing him, though that isn't at all stopping him from kissing, his own hands firming their touch on Arias' body into more of a pleasant kneading along his back.]
[when it gets to more complicated fastenings and getting around the more decorative ornaments of the robes, though, Arias does pull back from the kiss to get a better look at what he's doing. he doesn't want to just rip it, after all, especially since Raha has to wear it later]
[he takes the opportunity to shed his strappy... nonsense glove.... while they're at it, so it takes him a moment to realize that Arias is looking him over. and then he has to fight the stab of self-consciousness. the crystal bracketing his throat spreads half down his chest, halfway down the eye-like tattoo on his mostly spoken arm. almost all of his sharlayan tattoos consumed by allagan crystal.]
[and everything heats up between them in a hurry, both reluctant to pull from the kiss save for necessary breath. his hand presses down along G'raha's spine, feeling every dip and mapping out along the edge of the crystal formation, his other hand squeezing G'raha's affectionately]
[the crystal from the nape of his neck trails all down his spine, just barely veering off to curve over his hip before it hits his tail. G'raha shivers under his touch and gives as good as he's getting, his flesh hand trailing carefully over scars, committing them to memory.]
[Arias softly sighs in pleasure, arching into his hand, turning his head to brush his lips over G'raha's cheek, sliding his knee between his legs to help them get closer together]
[G'raha is more than happy to cooperate, widening his legs and moving closer until he's all but straddling Arias' thigh. he's still in his shorts, at least, but he's certainly showing signs of interest, though he's just shy enough that he is trying to avoid pressing his hard-on against Arias' leg. yet.]
[they're both still in smallclothes, not to mention between Arias's thigh-high boots and G'raha's sandals, the feel of leather doesn't quite slide the way bare skin would.
but the contact does allow him to gently roll his hips against him, just to add something to the current ongoing touches]
[Raha's hips jerk sharper at that, and he makes a small, desperate noise into the kiss. His own hands, too, are settled on Arias' lower back, pulling as if to tug him somehow closer.]

a thumb hooks into the back of G'raha's shorts as his other hand's nails trail down his tail, keeping him caught in the kiss]
