[This whole situation is a little funny to him- given that he's keenly aware of just how much he'd hate being treated like this by any other person. Honestly, most demons wouldn't stand for being treated like pets...and no matter how he acts with Agreas, it's not as if Elijah doesn't have any sense of pride at all.
And yet, here Agreas is- beckoning him over like that, telling him to come closer...and Elijah can feel his heart leap in his chest over it- something that's honestly...quite a small gesture. Even the simple idea of Agreas's hand on him makes his body tense up with excitement, and his mind drift off to imagine what it'd be like. With a twisting sensation in his stomach, he realizes he likes it- being treated like a pet. As long as it's Agreas's...as long as his king things of Elijah as his own, in some way...it's still enough to make his heart pound faster in his chest.
He doesn't even mind Agreas taking his time with it...drawing things out, even if it means toying with Elijah in some way. Because it's true- they are demons with long, long lifespans ahead of them. If he's been patient this far, and rewarded with this progress- he can afford to be patient longer. As long as he's getting what he wants in the end, it's worth it. Even if it's essentially no different than him hoping, and probably inevitably begging for small scraps of any attention from his king.
Some small part in the back of his mind is a little bit disgusted at himself...but that same part of him still wants Agreas badly enough to willingly submit to it anyway. And the rest of him is strangely, but maybe unsurprisingly, thrilled that the other would use him this way.
Wordlessly, Elijah starts to move- shifting himself across the bed towards that outstretched hand. It feels like a small blessing that there's not too much space between them, and it doesn't take him long to reach the other. But regardless, he pauses right as he reaches Agreas's hand. Mostly, it's because he's still being cautious, and working out what is and isn't ok for him to do...and he's not going to risk screwing anything up by overstepping himself now. But he also pauses because...if Agreas is going to touch him, Elijah thinks he would like it if the other were to do it first. It's such a rarity, after all...and he'd like to see where that hand would go on its own.
He closes his eyes and bows his head very slightly, but still in acknowledgement. He'll be the good, obedient servant- even over such a small order like this one.]
[ At least Elijah sure doesn't have to worry about getting attention from Agreas. It would usually be a legitimate worry, considering how little interest the demon king has in pretty much anything at all, but Elijah has become the exception to that rule. He provides Agreas with a kind of entertainment and amusement that he's never felt before, and he's not very willing to let go of that tiny spot of color in his fairly bleak life. Not easily, anyway. So of course he'll keep Elijah around, giving him all of these small moments that he's already starting to feel like he needs more and more. He never would have even been able to imagine feeling so amused first thing in the morning just from having the other right here, ready to approach him or do anything as long as Agreas just told him to do so.
It's why he doesn't have any problem with touching him either. The moment Elijah so obediently lowers his head like that, Agreas' hand already moves to the top of the other's head, fingers threading a little through the locks of hair and petting the other on the head - much like most normal people would do with a pet. Especially since Agreas isn't even doing it roughly or anything, he doesn't want to cause Elijah pain here, that wouldn't really be all that amusing to him. No, the amusing part is that he knows the other will eagerly accept it, his thirst growing by the minute.
And Agreas wants to see that. So he can't keep letting the other hang his head like that.. his hand trails down from the top of Elijah's head, fingers gently and slowly sliding over the side of the other demon's face on purpose before trailing all the way down to grasp Elijah's chin between his fingers, raising it a little so he can get better eye contact with the other. Which means that Elijah in turn will be able to see a very, very pleased smirk on his king's face as his own morning treat - an expression that hardly anyone otherwise would get to see from him. No, Elijah sure won't be losing his place anytime soon, not with how much Agreas enjoys this even now. ]
Are you eager to please your king today as well?
[ Because he sure knows something the other can do for him right now, but he isn't saying it just yet.. this is one of the things he definitely wants to draw out a little so he can savor every single reaction he can get from the other first. ]
[Just like Elijah doesn't really have to worry about getting attention from Agreas, Agreas himself doesn't need to worry about Elijah's reactions ever diminishing in the slightest. Even that soft touch on his head..fingers moving through his hair...it's already more than enough to fuel all of his thirst. For just...anything from him. Even more small touches like these. He's glad his eyes are closed in that moment, because it seems to help stop him from simply leaning his head forward, and wordlessly asking for that hand to keep on touching him. Even on an instinctual level, he's starting to behave more like his king's pet, it seems...But he manages to keep himself in check for the time being.
There's plenty that he still can't hold back though, and he's sure that the other wouldn't want him to anyway. When Agreas tilts his head up and Elijah sees that expression on his face, it seems to stop his heart for a few moments. His eyes widen and his breath staggers a little- coming out almost like he's panting already, even when nothing's actually happened yet.
He can't help it. It's such a rare thing to experience any emotions on the king's face to begin with...let alone such a pleased expression. One that's directed right at him, just for him, where no one else could ever see. It's almost painful to feel so needy so early this morning, especially after such a restless night...]
Yes...
[The word leaves his mouth so eagerly, even though it's said in a soft voice. Like he's too overcome by his own neediness to speak any louder. He lets out a few more short breaths- keeping his eyes fixed on his king so the other can see any reaction he has.]
Always...
[He has no idea what Agreas has in mind, and it doesn't matter. Whatever his king wants, he'll do it without hesitation.]
[ How could he not be pleased, honestly? No matter how little emotions he usually shows - or feels, for that matter, since the problem is definitely not as much with Agreas being a secretive person as much as it's with Agreas just being a fairly apathic person, no matter that he's supposed to be the king of demons. He just never had anything to really feel a whole lot over, nothing that was as amusing and pleasing to him as Elijah is now. Just look at him.. even after having slept (or, well, lied awake) at Agreas' feet all night, Elijah is immediately this needy for him again. It only takes the small movement of his fingers through the other demon's hair for Elijah to almost already sounds like he's short of breath, like he hardly can get out words.
You don't get it much better than that. There aren't many demons at all who would think of lowering themselves this much for another demon, even if it was their king - but it's not like Agreas feels like he doesn't deserve this. Of course he deserves it. Not because he thinks much of his position as the king, but more because Elijah is doing all of this for him personally. Agreas didn't even have to fan it the way he does now, Elijah is the one who started coming on to him so thirstily. Then why not indulge in it, right?
It doesn't even take long before Agreas already knows what he wants too. There's plenty of things that, while they didn't particularly inconvenience him either, were impossible for him to get before. But now, while Elijah is here, so willing and thirsty...
The blankets had already slipped half off Agreas' body, revealing his bare chest, but now he just plainly shoves them aside entirely with a casual gesture, leaving him entirely bare. It's not like he feels the need to sleep wearing anything when he's both a demon and the king, so it leaves everything in plain sight right now - like how he's already growing slightly hard at the sight of seeing the other demon so needy for him. He definitely doesn't feel enough shame to hide that fact, considering how casual he looks while showing it off. ]
If you cause a problem, then you should help solve it too. [ Specifically bringing it up too, because.. well, he knows that if Elijah already practically loses his mind over Agreas even slightly smiling or smirking at him, then he must practically die at the idea of turning his king on, huh. He can't wait to see what kind of face the other will make.
But despite that, his tone continues to be entirely casual as he spreads his legs a little to make it even easier to see and reach. ]
If it's so hard for you to talk this morning, then why not put your mouth to better service?
[It's true...Elijah had been the one to seek Agreas out, there's no question about that. Being a demon, it'd been only natural that he knew about the demon king beforehand, and he'd always been interested from the little bit of information he'd heard...but it hadn't been until he'd seen Agreas in person that he knew he wanted him more than anything else in this world. Of course...when the one thing you want happens to be your king and you're not already close to him in any way...it makes things a lot more complicated.
As soon as he'd started pursuing the other, he knew this was the sort of life waiting for him. At least, if he managed to get this far. And the only way he could get this far was by literally and metaphorically throwing himself at his king's feet...Being open about his thirst, and making it clear that he really would do anything- even begging for scraps of attention. There's never been any ulterior motive here...this is the same thing he's always wanted from the beginning.
Agreas can indulge in him as much as he wants...Elijah doesn't care. Even if he ends up being the only one working to please his king, and Agreas doesn't do a thing back to him, this is already like a reward to him. For as long as he's had to be patient, it's finally paying off...he doesn't mind doing all of the work, especially if this is what he's working on.
His whole body quivers- unable to keep his gaze from lowering down...mesmerized by the fact that he's even had an effect on Agreas like this at all. Even if he wasn't allowed to do anything, that alone is more than enough to make his heart race madly in his chest. He swallows loudly- letting out a small breath of air... at first can only manage a small nod. But it's not long before forces a few words out in response too.]
A..anything...It's yours. It belongs to you...I'll do anything you want with it.
[His mouth, in this case...and his whole body. Whether Agreas only wants this, or if he wants more...Elijah will do it.
He shifts closer- carefully, until he's hovering over Agreas. And the closer he gets, the more it feels like his heart will pop out of his chest...the more his breathing starts getting harder...the more his body starts to shake. It feels like he's just unraveling at finally...finally getting this far. And it seems like any moment he could break out into a cold sweat.
There's just one last pause as he looks back up at the other- as if asking for permission to go ahead with it. He still has to be a good, obedient servant after all.]
[ It's amazing how easily he can draw those words out of the other. It's not as if other demons haven't tried to suck up to Agreas before whenever they wanted something - a kind of useless effort, considering Agreas isn't the type to enjoy throwing his power around despite being the king - but it had always been such obvious one time kind of things. Just sucking up because they wanted one favor from him, only to disappear afterwards. But Elijah has been acting like this so consistently for a while now, and even besides that... no matter how the other demon acts in front of him, he knows Elijah isn't just like this by nature. It's not like he's seen Elijah acting like his regular self necessarily, considering Elijah does act like this a lot in front of him, but he's picked up rumors. Agreas may be apathic, but he's not completely oblivious to the things going on in the demon world, in his kingdom. He's heard some demons talk about how Elijah is a suck up by acting like that in front of Agreas whenever they thought they were out of the king's earshot (they weren't, really) - implying that Elijah really is doing this just for him.
Which is something he likes. Elijah is different than those other demons since he doesn't seem to want any specific favor from Agreas.. who would want to go that far just for something so trivial as a favor? Instead it seems much more like Elijah is interested in just.. well, this. Being close to Agreas, being the only one who's allowed to do these things.
And that is something Agreas will let the other have for sure. He won't even be cruel about it.. there's no reason to be, after all. Agreas isn't a cruel person by nature, when he does punish another demon for something it's more for practical reasons than anything else. Which means he can at least give the other a few small extras for all of this, especially when they're things that Agreas himself doesn't mind either.
Like folding his fingers around Elijah's chin when the other looks up to him to ask for permission, and then drawing the other's head up a little to plant his own lips against Elijah's. It'd be difficult to call it a soft or sweet kiss considering how Agreas is, but it's not done in a way to hurt Elijah either. It's just a small reward for Elijah - and at the same time something that already amuses Agreas lightly with the idea of how the other's reaction to this will be.
His tongue moves into the other's mouth, going around there as if to taste him, before pulling back and ending the kiss by letting go of his hold on the other demon's face. ]
Go ahead.
[ It feels like an almost stupidly simple thing to say after doing that just now, but that's half of the fun. He won't even blame Elijah if the other is a little slow to get to what he's supposed to do now, no matter how hard Agreas is already - the other's reactions are always so good that he can wait a moment here. ]
