Work Text:
Another lecture, same setting as every other time Sol has had a lecture, Ky's office space.
Sol didn't exactly like the room too much, it felt too plan, not exactly wanting to listen to the blonde rant longer he started looking around the room, first to the desk, counting the books sitting in a pile, the pens scattered around.
Next the display shelve a few steps from the desk, showcasing all of the tea set Ky had gathered over the last few years, they all looked the same to Sol, either way he started counting them as well but he could still hear Ky faintly in his ears.
The last thing his attention was drawn to, which happened a few times already was the man infront of him, Ky himself, studying his features, counting his eyelashes, eyeing the scar on his neck, all the same, there was only one thing annoying Sol.
Ky's outfit, he hated it just as more as the last one, which he slighted enjoyed as he grew accustomed to it, this new change was horrible in his opinion. The blueish gray color of his shirt didn't go well with his eye's or his soft blonde hair.
"Sol"
He didn't enjoy how loose it was, barely on him, infact Sol could tell it was barely in place by the other man's jacket and belt, chest exposed.
"Sol.."
He didn't like how short his hair was, he didn't mind Ky having short hair at all, but it only ever went well with his old outfit, he wished Ky hadn't cut it awhile ago, maybe it was due to all the teasing he would do towards it, in reality he quiet enjoyed how silky it looked, but he wouldn't tell Ky at all.
"SOL."
A simple bang of both of his hands brought Sol's thoughts to a close, back in the same dainty office again. Ky sighed as he frowned
"Were you even listening to me?" Leaning forward he practically growled at him.
"Huh, yeah yeah sorry.." He obviously hadn't been listening, infact even now he was started to get distracted by Ky's chest once more, or just the fact he could see down his shirt so easily from this angle alone.
"I'll ask again, Sol were you listening to me?.."
"No not really, sorry again, I'm just thinking right now." His eyes began to dart from Ky's face to his chest, Ky's face to his chest, repeating over and over again.
Ky started following his eyes slowly till he realised what the larger man was looking at. "Do i have something on my chest or something?"
More of the lack of something on your chest was all he could think of instead he grunted out "Nah you don't."
"Then what is it?"
"Your shirt I.."
"What about my shirt..."
"I can see down it.. try buttoning up already."
The room went silent, all that could be heard was the ticking of the clock. First to react was Ky, standing up straight now he covered his chest, cheeks flushed slightly frowing once more
"Why are you staring at my chest?!?"
"Cuz it's right there, like I said try buttoning up."
"Is that what you've been thinking about this entire time?"
"What? No, I mean yes kind, just your outfit in general."
Ky sighed "Its the color right..."
He nodded in areement, "Doesn't fit you really, wouldve gone for something more blue."
"More blue? I think grey looks good on me.."
"Not really.." He noticed Ky frown and admittedly backtracked "I mean- It does just, not with this outfit, that's what I meant."
Ky snickered "Alright what other fashion critism do you have for me as you obviously know more then me?" He said in an obvious sarcastic tone just to piss off Sol.
"Your hair, too short."
"My hair? I've had it at this length in the past, why did you never have a problem then?"
"Because after you grew out your hair it made me realise I liked it more longer... - I mean it suits you more or something I guess." He leaned back in his chair sighing.
Ky cheeks flushed up once again "O-oh? I didn't think it looked too good on me, got in the way too much so I wanted to cut it off again.."
"Well you made it too short, near the back, looks off that's all.."
"I only wanted it shorter because it got in the way alot of the time, that's all Sol, it'll grow back."
"Well-" He leaned up, brushing a piece of hair out of the others face, just above his reading glasses. "- Obviously it's not working is it?"
Just this simple gesture had Ky's entire face cherry red, frowning out of embarrassment, usually he'd smack Sol's hand away, maybe even his face if he really was in a bad mood, but his hands were already away from Ky's face, already back in his seat, and Ky's face had already started to feel less warm then seconds ago.
"You alright? Your face is red, are you overworking yourself again?" How oblivious he was almost made Ky laugh, but he brushed it off as he tried to calm down.
"Uhm.. I'm alright don't worry, your body heats a little too much for me sometimes.." He wasn't exactly lying.
"Mhm.. Alright whatever you say Kiske, mind if I smoke?"
"Yes I do mind.. God how many times have I said not to smoke in my office Sol...." His previous laid back mood about their conversation faded as he took off his glasses to rub the bridge of his nose. But despite that the other man still lit his cigarette, there really wasn't anything he could do to stop him at this point.
Few moments of silence passed before anyone said anything, till Ky muttered. "Why does my shirt being unbuttoned really matter when you walk around with barely any all the time.." he pulled out a ash tray from one of the draws on his table, he could see the ash build up on the end of Sol's cigarette
"Because I'm not the one publicising myself as a 'modest man' like you do all the time, if I wasn't I'd cover up.. maybe." He lightly tapped on the newly placed ash tray, smirking, "Besides I already dress well enough why change it?"
"You? Well dressed?" Ky couldn't help but hold back a laugh "Oh please if I was you I'd cut off that rat tail of yours already."
This comment made the gear frown and grumble in response.
"Sorry sorry.. Just really, you think what you're wearing all the time is that flash?... I'd be surprised if you didn't add another buckle to your jacket everyday!" Still snickering he looked up, his eyes already starting to water up.
Still grimacing, Sol straightened up, putting out his cigarette, "Now that I think about it maybe I should've held my tongue earlier.." He started to stand up.
"W-wait come on! I'm only joking come on!" Jumping he grabbed the gears sleeve, still smiling. "I really don't mean it.."
Turning around he sighed, "Fine..." and so he stayed.
