Gabriel loved humanity. Really. Really, he did. Honest. It was just very hard to show it here. It was pretty tough on Earth at times to stick up for them, despite the reasons he found to continue loving them. Here. Well. It was still Earth. Fights to the death were nothing new. Humans were flawed and messed up. It wasn't even the arenas, really. It was just... everything. They were playing with fire and it boggled the mind that they still hadn't gotten burned off of it yet.

At least they could throw a good party, but man they were sure weird.

Being human probably wasn't helping matters on his end, to be totally honest. It made everything seem new and a million times more irritating. He could still feel his Grace, he was still an angel, but only in name and it was incredibly annoying to be on that brink. He often thought of Lucifer, as he knew that his brother would just get a kick out of this place, but Raphael came to mind this time along with the image of an extremely soaked cat. Perhaps it was best that, out of the archangels, it was him that came here.

There was a bright side, at least. At least he wasn't dead... or, rather, if he was dead, at least it wasn't boring. Gabriel still refrained from thinking too much about the upcoming arena, though...

Anyway, yes, he did love humanity, really. Tonight, though, things were just getting a little too loud and a little too overwhelming. Again, being mostly human wasn't helping. So, he decided to do a bit of exploring, maybe check out the rest of the Tribute Center that he hadn't seen yet, which led him to the rooftop gardens. It... Well, it wasn't really all that beautiful, honestly. Not exactly an Eden, but it was okay. Provided a different atmosphere and stuff. But the foliage didn't draw as much attention as the other side of the railing that ended in a swift drop off the side of the building. It sort of provided an eye opener, in a way. Such an easy way for a tribute to end it all standing right before them, but the answer of why they didn't do so was painfully obvious and made his mouth twist into another sneer. Playing with fire, these guys.

He turned back to the greenery.

And that was the crux of why they had worked together so well before. Both of them had time on their hands when stuck in this place.

Also, a roof didn't have beds, and they may give each other enough bruises that they didn't need to add hard rooftop ground to the list of reasons.

He waved a hand in a mock gentlemanly gesture. "After you, Romea." Sorry, if Lindsey gets called another girly name, Gabriel wasn't getting away with being the guy.

[casaerotica13]

"That's right. You just follow after me now." You damn well better belief that he's smirking up a storm for the sole reason that he gets to walk ahead of Lindsey. It was close enough right now. He'd win more dominance later in a tussle that may or may not end in bruising.

Gabriel sauntered over to the elevator, the whole aspect of the garden and the rooftop gone from his mind as he pressed the shiny 11.

[hartless_cowboy]

Oh, did Gabriel think he was getting away with that? It was only after they were safely ensconced inside the elevator that Lindsey moved up to whisper to his ear, "Ladies first." They were most definitely still on for the dominance battle although it had taken a tenor of rivalry than animosity.

Once in the relative privacy of the elevator, Lindsey did not think putting spy cameras in the elevator was beyond Panem society, he tried to pin Gabriel against the wall. It would have been a casual boxing in that had no real meaning in the enclosed space, but it set his assertion and showed his intent to kiss the man a second time if allowed.

[casaerotica13]

Damn his vessel's height to Hell. It just wasn't fair that he had to look up to Lindsey standing over him. Made things so much worse.

But Gabriel smirked and tried to push Lindsey back against the other side of the elevator. It was going to be a quick ride, but surely he can win back some dominant dignity in that span of time.

[hartless_cowboy]

While their lips were locked, Lindsey found himself pushed back again towards the other end of the elevator. He had started to move too, the angel was damnably insistent, but before he could be pinned, their short ride was over and the elevator announced their arrival with a 'ding'.

Regretfully, they broke apart before Lindsey managed to do more than swipe his tongue at Gabriel's.

"Ladies first again," he said with a renewed smirk while he pretended to hold the elevator door for the angel to walk through. Gabriel would have to go first anyway, Lindsey didn't know which room was his.

[casaerotica13]

Dammit, he would have to go first. "You know what?" Gabriel pushed off of Lindsey and walked into the empty District 11 lounge, heading to the rooms and ignoring their small, heated session in the elevator just to show off he could.

"I don't mind being a woman," he announced, loud and proud. "Women top, too."

[hartless_cowboy]

That got a genuine bark of laughter out of Lindsey as he followed behind him. He didn't care who heard him although the lounge looked empty except for the guarding avoxes. Seeing that he was with Gabriel, they left him alone.

"I never said they didn't," he agreed while they were in the lounge. Yet as soon as they were in the enclosed area of Gabriel's room and the door firmly shut behind them, Lindsey let the other shoe drop. "But they don't do the fucking."

[casaerotica13]

One had to wonder what the avoxes were thinking, but Gabriel tried not to, much like everyone else. Still, there was something else on his mind as he wheeled back around to face Lindsey again.

"This one does," he smirked again, pinning Lindsey to the door before he had an attempt to do otherwise.

[hartless_cowboy]

Oh, that devious angel! Lindsey found himself pinned before he could otherwise move away and shot Gabriel an annoyed look. He wasn't, not truly, but he did attempt to turn the tables by pushing at the other man back. Mainly, towards the bed. Since this meant Gabriel's back was to the bed, Lindsey would automatically be on top if he could succeed at that.

"Oh yeah? How prepared are you for that?" This will be incredibly disappointing if all their playing had to stop because Gabriel didn't stock up on lube in his room.

[casaerotica13]

Automatically? No. At first? Maybe.

Gabriel does let Lindsey push him back, but stops short right before the bed. He's not going down that easily, buddy. "Now see? You had a very poor copy if you weren't well aware that I'm always prepared for every circumstance."

[hartless_cowboy]

When Gabriel stopped, Lindsey tried to kick the angel's legs out from under him to help him along. He wasn't above cheating to get what he wanted.

"Or I was double checking to make sure you're not the poor copy..." Even clothed, the thought of getting the angel and his feathery ass spread out beneath him was a heady thought. Especially knowing the powers he wielded when they weren't nuked.

I'm sorry I'm late AAAHHHHHHHHH

[casaerotica13]

Gabriel was about to reply when his feet suddenly failed him. Oops.

His back fell into the bed and his features twisted. "I'm not sure I condone that."

That's fine! I'm often much later.

[hartless_cowboy]

Lindsey was quick to move on top of the angel, possessively pinning him even though his grin turned almost tender. "All's fair in sex and war."

When he kissed Gabriel this time, it was slower, much more leisurely done. His free hand meanwhile busied itself by slipping under the angel's shirt to reach the smooth skin beneath.

[casaerotica13]

He would correct that quote if he actually cared enough to do so.

Slower kissing like this wasn't exactly as fun as wrestling, but there was something about it that Gabriel liked more than the rush. Both were great, though. He wasn't going to be picky.

For his own sake, Gabriel began busying his hands with Lindsey's clothes, pulling the other man closer as he did so. It wasn't submission. It was, uh... agreeing to terms.

[hartless_cowboy]

They had time, they had space. Now that their battle was settled, or more like a temporary had been reached, Lindsey wasn't as demanding as before.

Surfacing for air led him to discover that his buttoned down shirt was half undone already. Chucking at that, he made quick work of the rest of it while giving Gabriel a pointed look to suggest the angel similarly disrobe.

Scars were revealed as Lindsey bared his body. The two bullet scars in his chest, one of them over his heart, the not quite faded scar that encircled his right hand completely like a bracelet. They were all from before Panem.

[casaerotica13]

Gabriel gave a very smug look as he also began to take his clothes off. He didn't really put any show into it as they were having plenty of fun already.

His vessel held no scars. Gabriel's true visage, on the other hand, wasn't nearly as rid of them, but Lindsey wouldn't have been able to tell that either way. He flung his shirt somewhere across the room.

[hartless_cowboy]

Given that this wasn't Lindsey's first time seeing the body spread before him, he wasted no time in going for areas where he recalled would get reactions from the angel. He kissed down the exposed chest, spending some time to tongue the nipples, swirling the tip around the little peaks until they hardened under his mouth.

He breathed on them slightly as he pulled back, just to see the reaction of the angel. "Lift your arms above your head, angel boy."

[casaerotica13]

Gabriel hesitated a moment, more from the nickname than the command. This guy knew, too? How many people knew exactly? How close had they been for Gabe to tell him or did a point come where he just didn't care anymore?

Too many questions that he decided to push very far away for the time being and, reluctantly, did as told. "Just so you know, I'm taking back my comment about being a girl."

[hartless_cowboy]

"Which comment?" Lindsey asked as he used one of his own to hold Gabriel's wrists together above the angel's head. It was just a light grasp that was more symbolism than any real restriction.

Grinning a bit up at Gabriel, Lindsey dipped his head back down to kiss around the angel's neck. He sucked lightly on his adam's apple, then moved to nip a mark above his collar bone.

[casaerotica13]

"Sometimes I like being the guy for a change," he said, but it didn't seem to hold a whole lot of weight as he was being very distracted by what Lindsey was doing.

He hummed, moving his head aside to give the other man more room. "Maybe you did know me pretty well."

[hartless_cowboy]

"Yeah, I like being the guy too." Lindsey's voice became a muffled murmur against Gabriel's skin where he was buried against and nipping with feathery light pecks. He trailed it back down to the chest before looking up with a wolfish grin.

"Well enough." While putting some of his weight on Gabriel's hands, he freed his other one so he may lower it down between the angel's legs. He drew a finger up one inner thigh then palmed the package there. "Having second thoughts about taking the lead?"

[casaerotica13]

"No," Gabriel breathed heavily, suddenly really really liking sex as a human and it wasn't even there yet. At least humanity had a plus side to it.

"Are you?" he asked, not even focusing on his own question for more than a few seconds. Too much was going on, okay?

[hartless_cowboy]

Lindsey laughed, letting the soft noise rumble against Gabriel's stomach when he lowered down to kiss along his navel. "Not a chance."

Giving Gabriel's wrists a slight squeeze, he commanded, "Keep them above your head." Straightening up, he straddled the angel's hips and slowly he removed his grip. Staring straight into Gabriel's eyes, he started undoing the angel's pants.

[casaerotica13]

"I ain't gotta listen to you," he half-grumbled, half-smirked, never taking his eyes off of Lindsey's while the man's hands worked. And, yes, he did keep his arms above his head, not because hew as commanded, but because he wanted to. It was getting interesting, after all.

[hartless_cowboy]

"No, but I can stop if you don't." Unlikely, but there was no harm in throwing the bluff out there as he freed Gabriel out of the confines of his pants and took the hardening shaft in his grasp. He gave it a few firm strokes to make sure it stayed that way while his other hand broke away to palm himself through the fabric of his own clothes. "Where's the lube?"
