{{Ahh! Merry Whatever-mas!  This is for @fighterofstars who I got in the Secret Santa! I queued this because I know he lives in Scotland and I have no idea when he’s active so I just hope you see this in time! I have to say, I had a rather hard time writing Selene, he’s a character that just slips through my fingers sometimes, but I liked the idea that he’s deep down really playfully mischievous, sort of kinky mofo. This is SFW, but it also started me writing a second prompt for someone else that is very much... not... SFW... sweats. I will.... I will post that later.... Whelp! I hope you like it }}

“Hey Selene!”

Selene turned in his chair to the small pitter patter of feet rushing up to his station only to see a flush faced Athos popping up from behind.

The fighter was a little more than obvious about how he felt about Selene, and the navigator didn’t particularly mind the attention – He hadn’t truly considered how he wanted to react to the blaringly undeniable crush Athos had, the glittering look in the fighter’s eyes and the way he seemed to light up when seeing him made him feel rather… special. Selene wasn’t entirely sure if Athos knew how unintentionally forward he was being either, but he didn’t quite feel like embarrassing the fighter just yet (if he was even capable of being embarrassed).

Athos was sweet and surprisingly intelligent if you could filter out all the nonsense rambling to get to the point of what he was saying or if you managed to keep him on one subject long enough... And lately he had been catching him in the walk ways or the mess halls, trying to start up small conversations (which were never small if you got the man talking) that were actually quite engaging. 

Selene wasn’t sure how the fighter got all this information, but he had a surprisingly good grasp on some complicated navigator proceedings and often gave perspectives that Selene would have never considered. On the other hand he asked a lot of questions and patiently listened as Selene gave rather simple explanations that Athos dotingly listened to with stars in his eyes – although if they were from the new facts he was learning or the fact that it was Selene telling him, he wasn’t sure…

So Selene knew he was in for something when Athos was clearly out of breath trying to force out words between ragged breaths.

“I-I-I--- have been looking--- for you—(gasp) EVERywheRE.”

Selene covered his mouth trying to hide his smile as the fighter slowly started to compose himself.

“I thought about messaging you, but then I figured my legs would be faster even though they’re kinda small, and because of what time it was, you might be in your room. So I ran over there but it was just Helios hanging out with Abel for some reason and they yelled at me about knocking or something, but I did knock like you’re supposed to, but it was obvious you weren’t there, so I ran to the mess hall thinking maybe you were hungry because you work so hard that you need to eat a lot. Especially bananas, they’re supposed to help your brain grow and-“

“Athos-“

The fighter stopped, eyes attentively staring him like a small puppy -Selene seemed to have this effect on him, “what could you have needed me for that was so important you ran around trying to find me instead of messaging me?”

Oh no. Selene couldn’t stop the question leaving his mouth and he knew he was in for a doozy when Athos took in a deep breath, preparing himself for the onslaught of words he was about to be hit with.

“I was down by the shipping docks and I heard some of the crew talking – you know that big guy who is like a giant to me? Maybe not to you because you’re already sort of tall, taller than me at least, but he has big arms so he can lift those heavy boxes that come in from Earth even though he doesn’t have to because we have machines that do that for us? But I guess he just really likes lifting things you know? He was talking with this girl who was also really big, but not in a big big sort of way, like she looked like she liked to lift things too even though I don’t think she has to because like I said before we have machines that do that and she’s got short hair kinda like yours but yours seems way nicer and soft. Suddenly my friend Cain-“ 

Selene visibly recoiled.

“-came over and started talking to them too! And she gave him a package! I had been watching them lift packages and boxes all day but I hadn’t seen them lift this package out, it was a secret package, or a very important one because it was sort of small and they all seemed very nervous to be giving that package to Cain and I was just too excited and curious because mail was supposed to go through the mail room, so I walked over to tell them that when Cain nearly punched me! Can you believe that?”

Yes I can Athos.

“ He was so surprised and he got even more nervous so he said he would give me a present if I didn’t tell anyone about it, but he did say I should probably invite you to share it and I did invite Erebus because the more friends the better I say, so I think it’s ok if I tell some people because how did he expect me to invite you if I couldn’t tell you? Did I even tell you what the present was? Alcohol! Apparently Cain has some friends back on Mars that make whiskey in their backyards which seems odd because I don’t think they have a license to do that kind of thing, it’s a very complicated process, do you know about it? I read in a book once-“

Selene was mesmerized for a moment at exactly how much information the fighter could spew out and somehow lace small compliments within it -- it had to be the most annoyingly endearing thing he’d seen the man do, especially when asking him to actually go and hang out with him. … Was this Athos’ version of asking someone on a date? He couldn’t help but chuckle a bit as Athos continued to talk as if somehow it would hide whatever subconscious intentions he had, but the mischievous streak in the navigator couldn’t help but think this could be fun.

Leaning up, Selene placed a quick soft kiss on Athos’ cheek before turning back to his computer screen.

“If I go, will you be quiet for a second so I can work?”

Athos opened and closed his mouth as if trying to think of something to say as a proper response to what just happened and had it been anyone else he would have ranted about how a second wasn’t very long and he could be quiet for much longer than that since it didn’t seem Selene was going to be able to finish his work in a single second? If he needed more time—but all he could manage were spluttered words and a little sigh until he settled into a silent shy smile. Biting the inside of his lip, he nodded under rosy cheeks and stared at the navigator rather mesmerized.

“….Athos? You’re still here…”

“Oh! Yes! I will just… yes, I will go… and-and prepare! I need to talk to Cain! Or Erebus. Yes. Ok. Good bye! Wait! Not good bye, because I will see you again, but I guess that’s why people say see you later because you get to see them later in the day, but it’s not like we have a day time here but we do get to see the sun? But we get the sun all the time, so technically it’s always daytime and see you later isn’t time specific so you could use it any time you want-“

“ATHOS. PLEASE.” 

“S-s-see you later Selene!”

And with that Athos was again running off out of the room.

{{ SELENEEEEE I would be that girl Selene found really fucking annoying, but I’m so funny, they couldn’t help but keep me around. I wouldn’t try and argue with Selene either because he seems like the type to debate and I can’t argue my point for shit ok. I’d whisper dirty jokes in his ears and he’d tell me to fuck off, but it would be funny and I couldn’t take him seriously. 

It Only Crossed His Mind Once… or Twice // Naughty Thoughts

Christmas Mistletoe.

Erebus had been sitting in the mess hall, minding his own business.  He was avoiding the color green, skittering through doorways, jumping at the slightest touch - something was happening on this ship that was making people obsessed with kissing and it was like playing tactical hide and seek, except the punishment for losing was to have to lock lips with whoever found you. 

But it had been quiet. So very quiet and Erebus was so tired that he thought it was over, he hadn’t seen a mistletoe in days and now was the time to come out of hiding. 

Or so he thought. 

At the light touch on his shoulder, he turned to find Selene standing over him with his hands behind his back. He nodded, giving a short smile as hello and with an inquisitive look, nudged towards why his hands were behind his back.

Selene’s soft smiling features turned into a snicker as he pulled the green object from behind his back and dangled it above Erebus’ head as if it was some small trinket that was insignificant in his life. Erebus dropped the utensil in his hand and gave out a groan - not you too Selene! But it would never stop. Not until this damned holiday season was over. 

The ombre navigator seemed a bit dejected at Erebus’ reaction, but in a swift movement, Erebus grabbed Selene’s wrist that was holding the plant and roughly pulled him forward into a kiss, not giving he other a chance to say anything in between. As he pulled away, he playfully licked at the other’s lips and then deadpan went right back to his meal.
