#augustia

Yongguk had his AirPods stuck in his ears, on work call while logging on to his laptop for a zoom meeting. He was consulting a group while being presented the numbers of the next quarter. He learned how to multi task as soon as he started this job years ago. Now instead of carrying a tray of coffee and printing out papers for his managers, he’s running a company and in meetings.

Yongguk had a tough childhood but he worked his way up. Now he has more money than he could ever imagine but no time to enjoy it, so focused on making more and more of it.

All of a sudden his power goes out in his office. Causing everything to go silent. “Carol what they fuck?” He yelled out at his secretary only for her to come in holding onto a black backpack and slick matching carry on suitcase.

“Oh right” his vacation. He was supposed to leave over an hour ago but he just needed to make ‘one more call’ which led to 3 more. He sighed setting everything down and grabbing his bags, grumbling a thank you before he left the building.

20 minutes later the taxi was pulling up to August’s home. He got out taking everything out of the taxi. He stood at the front door in his black suit, sunglasses and luggage. “I’m here open up” He yelled after knocking once.

Only 3 days until Magical Otoge Iris' release!! Empress Augustia drawn by @GoudaMorganing !!

The nightclub was dimly lit as the angel stood there- close to the table where August was sitting and his halo glowed slightly, casting a golden sheen on his features as he watched. The other seemed so vulnerable and fragile like this and he couldn’t blame him- he had been through hell and the burdens he had to carry… They were heavy and even Steve would be bending under the weight. He felt the other needed help; but he did not know if it was okay to tempt- not that he had anything against kissing married men. Or those betrothed to another; he had seen the ring.

But he was scared it would break August.

He inhaled from the fag- and then blew out the smoke before sitting down close to August and pushing the full shot glass to the other. “I don’t know about that- I think you might break August.” he said softly, but loud enough the be heard by the fairy.

“Calm down.” the angel says, his voice low as he steps closer to the other man. Putting his hands on the man’s shoulders to ground him. “Calm down, breathe in 2 seconds, then breathe out 4-” he exemplifies it, breathing slowly as he tried to keep the other’s gaze with his own. “What is wrong?” He asks as he squeezes the man’s shoulder a bit. “How can I help you?”
