bad rap

The things we become known for aren’t always what we’d like to be known for. Reputations are hard to run from. Sometimes they’re not even deserved. So here’s your chance to set the record straight. Clear up some misplaced assumptions, debunk any rumours about yourself and defy your stereotypes.

how to play:

Top level with something(s) your character is tired of people assuming about them, blaming them for, or pigeonholing them about, etc. Say it in person or over text.

Comment on any surprising, or not so surprising declarations.

[Matt wasn't stupid. He was listening to Bucky's body as much as he was to his words. The shaky breathing, the increased heartbeat, the lick of his lips. Matt's own pulse ticked up a little in response.]

Okay.

[That was all he said, not wanting to drag it out and turn anticipation into anxiety. The hand not behind Bucky came up, fingers dragging gently over Bucky's cheek, down to his jaw, outlining where he was so he could lean in further, head tipping to let his lips barely graze over Bucky's. He was almost glad the man couldn't hear how hard his heart started pounding after that.]

( he couldn't remember the last time he'd kissed someone, but the instinct remained. feeling matt's hand against his cheek, he let the proximity settle a moment before leaning further in, blood rushing through his ears. the first thing he noticed was matt's scent, something that had certainly been near all the while and hadn't quite registered to him, despite realizing that it was matt and it defined his presence.

with the brush against his lips, he released a nervous breath, warmth against skin, and hesitated before leaning forward the rest of the way, pressing in solemnly with something chaste. he didn't dare for more, too uncertain to force himself further. )

[Matt didn't push for more, letting that press stay slow and light before he drew back, a little smile playing around the edge of his mouth.]

That was... very nice.

[His voice caught and he had to clear his throat, cheeks pinking a little.]

( bucky burst out laughing, at that, easing back as he gave slight shake of his head. )

Nice, sure. ( his cheeks reddened with the verbal acknowledgement. ) Maybe if we were kids.

( he knew the end result was ultimately very innocent, and though matt hadn't pushed or really asked for more, part of the soldier also couldn't help but mock the reality of how simplistic it was compared to what adults typically fell into doing. )

Cut me a little slack. I'm trying very hard not to put hands where I want to put them or do something like bite your lip and suck on it. It felt like a very biteable lip.

[The blush was there, but the teasing made it all in good fun, and Matt was still smiling as he propped his head up on his hand, trying to ignore the fact that his libido was reminding him it had been a damn while. Shut up, libido.]
