It's an impulsive sort of plan. One that Izaya is playing mostly by ear, but that's what makes his side-projects entertaining. The stakes are so low that the only way he can have fun with them is to play things fast and loose. It's not vital that he find out anything about Tsukumoya. Someday it may be useful but it's not particularly important to any of his current schemes, so he can get away with instigating cyber sex with no clear goal in mind beyond it being yet another salvo in the vague sort of mind-games they play.
Sex can be a useful tool. This is far from the first and certainly won't be the last time Izaya has used his body to lower someone's guard, but it is one of the very few and far between times he's done so without any sort of physical contact being involved. If anything it makes for an interesting experiment to see if it will actually work in this kind of situation. A situation where there is nothing but words on a screen between two men who are equally cunning and knowledgeable of every potential angle.
The trick is making sure he doesn't underestimate his opponent. Neither of them quite trust the other's motives, all of their interactions a complicated tangle of "I know you're up to something and you know that I know you're up to something and I know that you know that I know that you're up to something" into infinity. Both of them playing at pleasantries and feeling one another out for weaknesses.
Izaya does not intend to lose.
Orihara Izaya, reborn!
Orihara Izaya
Hello again~
Tsukumoya Shinichi
So soon? What are you up to?
Orihara Izaya
Maybe I'm eager for another taste of Tsukumoya's cock~
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Maybe you're just making a nuisance of yourself.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I do business here. I didn't give you access to this room for your entertainment.
Orihara Izaya
How cruel. You had no problems with it before. And you said you'd be interested in a repeat~
Tsukumoya Shinichi
That was before I knew it would turn you into a pest.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Do you make it a habit to be this needy with everyone you offer sexual favours to, Orihara? It's only been a few days.
Orihara Izaya
What can I say. My plans have been going so smoothly of late, I'm a bit at loose ends and it's kind of boring. You make for an excellent distraction!
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Get too distracted and your plans could fall apart on you.
Orihara Izaya
Is that a threat?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Oh no. I'm not interested in getting involved in whatever you're plotting, that's not how I operate. Things will shake down however they're meant to. I'm just pointing out a basic truth. You shouldn't spend so much time playing that you neglect your work. It could end poorly.
Orihara Izaya
Are you worried about me then? After one little tryst~
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Don't mistake a little friendly advice for concern.
Orihara Izaya
I wouldn't dream of it.
...
...
...
...
...
...
Tsukumoya Shinichi
What is it you want, Orihara?
Orihara Izaya
Nothing in particular.
...
...
...
Orihara Izaya
Did you jerk off thinking about me?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
You'd like that, wouldn't you?
Orihara Izaya
Go on. You can tell me. Did you sit in the dark in front of your computer screen after I logged off and stroke yourself wondering just what it would feel like?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
You're starting to become rather one-note, Orihara. Why the sudden fixation on sex... with me in particular?
Orihara Izaya
The truth?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I'd prefer it. I'd like to think neither of us is inclined to lie to one another.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Save by omission, of course.
Orihara Izaya
And if I kept insisting that it's all for no reason beyond the sake of keeping myself entertained and getting under your skin?
...
...
Tsukumoya Shinichi
You desperately need to be taught a lesson, Orihara.
Orihara Izaya
Naughty. Do you want to spank me?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
At the moment I want to wrap my hands around your neck.
Orihara Izaya
Ah~ Tsukumoya's losing his perfectly unflappable shell. I need to save this log for posterity!
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Am I? Or am I simply giving you exactly what you want?
Orihara Izaya
...?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
You want me to keep you entertained. You want me to lose it. Do you want to think about me holding you down? About things getting violent?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Is this some kind of strange transference of your fixation on Shizuo?
Orihara Izaya
Ugh. Don't bring up that brainless idiot.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
No. This is interesting...
Tsukumoya Shinichi
He's physically superior to you, and you provoke him. To prove that you're quick and clever enough to keep ahead of him and stay unscathed.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
And now you're provoking me in a place where there is no physical element. There is nothing but the mental. Word games on a screen.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Are you still trying to prove how quick and clever you are?
Orihara Izaya
You just *need* to bleed the fun out of everything, don't you?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Maybe. But someone could really have a field day with your psyche.
Orihara Izaya
And it's so easy to pick at someone when you're hiding behind a thick wall of mystery, isn't it?
Orihara Izaya
Do you want the truth, Tsukumoya? Full disclosure? I'm here to pull you apart. I don't like being at even a minor disadvantage to anyone, so I'm going to scrape away that blank mask of yours and find out what you're hiding.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Sounds interesting. If you stop being so clumsy about it, this might just make for an enjoyable game.
Orihara Izaya
I'll try not to bore you.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Try harder. You're already getting tedious.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I should make it so you can't reply.
...
...
...
Tsukumoya Shinichi
There. I bet you hate this, don't you? But you won't log out because now you're curious as to why I'd do something like this. Especially after I've said that I wouldn't.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Consider this me teaching you a lesson.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
You want to play? You want to be terribly distracting and talk about sex all the time? We can do that. But I think I'll do it my way.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Do you know what I'd do if we were face to face *now*, Orihara?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I'd tie you up.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Have you all sprawled out naked and at my mercy. As far as I can tell this *is* what you want, isn't it? Didn't you say last time that you wanted me to use you?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Oh, I could use the hell out of you, Orihara.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
But this is punishment. I don't want to go rewarding you for bad behaviour. So really what I think I'd do right now is neglect you a little. I'd get my enjoyment. I'd fuck that beautiful mouth of yours until you choked. And I'd do everything in my power to turn you on because I love to watch you squirm.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Are you aware of that little fact?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I love knowing more than you and rubbing your face in it. You get so irate; it's the most beautiful thing in the world.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Not that I'd go so far as to say that it's my one true pleasure in life, that would just be sad. No, lording things over you isn't my only joy, but it's high on the list of things I love.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Oh look. I suppose you did make me slip a little. Here I am revealing things about myself. Maybe we could call that half a point in your favour. Either way I'm clearly going to have to watch my tongue as it were.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Let's go back to you and how you'd look. Tied up and flushed and needy. Silently begging for release.
...
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Sex toys. Do you use them, Orihara?
...
...
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Oh that's right, you can't respond.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Not that I really forgot. I'm just giving you a moment to think about that.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
You asked me if I thought about you after our last little "conversation". I still wonder if the reverse is true as well. If you thought about me. If you have any special "playthings" that you used while you wondered what it would be like to have me filling you up.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Maybe I should do some looking online and make suggestions of what you could add to your collection. Just so you'll have something of an appropriate size when you want to think about me.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Later though. This is amusing enough on its own. I wonder if you're hard yet or just fuming. Or both. Panting and rubbing yourself off and cursing my name.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Oh hell. I'll let you reply again. It's more fun that way.
Orihara Izaya
I hate you so much.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Hate me? You? The man who claims to love all of humanity?
Orihara Izaya
Let's just say I have my doubts about whether or not you qualify on occasion.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Is that why the sudden obsession? You want to know for certain where I slot into your little worldview? Ah, Orihara. Not a wasted motion. Everything for a reason. Always so perfectly calculating.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
This is why seeing you off balance is wonderful.
...
Orihara Izaya
Yes. Well.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Are you still hard? Still desperate and needy? Has any of this talk gotten to you at all?
Orihara Izaya
What about you?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
That's not the question. I don't talk about myself.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I could be stroking myself right now, but I'd never let you know. This is about you. It will *always* be about you. Maybe once or twice you will score a fragment or two. But you will never have the whole picture. I will never give it to you.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
If we were face to face by this point I'd have you aching for release. Flushed. Sobbing for it. And even though I'm not sure if you've learned your lesson I'm still feeling a bit generous. I did let you speak again, after all. And now, I think I'd let you come.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Come for me, Orihara. I want to watch you
...
...
...
Izaya doesn't mean to doze off. It's simply one of those things that happens. He's feeling particularly loose-limbed and lazy after mopping himself off as best he can with a handful of tissue (already hating himself enough for letting those too smooth words get to him), only intending to close his eyes for a moment.
When he opens them again the clock on his desktop shows that it's been nearly half an hour and the chatroom is still open. Cursor blinking at him innocuously from the text box and Tsukumoya hasn't said a word since "come for me, Orihara. I want to watch you."
For a moment Izaya is tempted to log off without saying anything further. Except it's been so long that the action is sure to be noticed and he knows Tsukumoya is watching (the man is always watching, always aware when someone logs in to his room, aware of every half-typed then deleted message). Watching and more than likely quietly amused, waiting for whatever Izaya might do next.
There's nothing to do but speak up. To meet things head on as it were.
Orihara Izaya
Are you still there?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Of course.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Where else would I be? You know what I've told you.
Orihara Izaya
Twenty-four-seven. Yes.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Did you fall asleep?
Orihara Izaya
No. I got busy checking other boards and chatrooms. I just forgot to log out here.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I get the feeling you're lying. Were you so spent you fell asleep at your desk?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
It's just like we're cuddling afterwards. How cute~
Orihara Izaya
Hardly. If anything it's more like I rolled over and made you lie on the wet spot.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Ha! So filthy, Orihara. And you've pretty much admitted to falling asleep now. It was that good for you, hmm?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
What do you do to yourself when we have these little "talks"? You've asked that question of me, and turnabout is fair play.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Do you finger yourself? Spread open that tight little hole of yours and think about me filling you up?
Orihara Izaya
Don't bother. I'm not in the mood for round two right now.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
No? Are you sure that's not what you want? You *could* have left quietly.
Orihara Izaya, confirmed dead!
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Well then.
Izaya immediately regrets disconnecting so impulsively. It's like a show of weakness, a blatant way of telegraphing that, yes, Tsukumoya got to him. That he spent too much of their last conversation fumbling one-handed with his keyboard while his other was busy fisting his cock and god, if only he had an extra one to finger himself with while he was at it.
With a small curse he scrubs a hand over his face and quickly pushes away from his desk. He needs to shower. He needs to not think about how this game has so quickly turned on him. He needs to figure out how to get things back under control somewhat.
Things with Tsukumoya have been a game of one-upmanship since day one. A game where Izaya is always lagging a few steps behind, much to his annoyance, as Tsukumoya had no problems pointing out tonight. The fact that even this particular plan isn't quite working out only adding to his irritation.
Someone who appears to live his life in a chatroom should not be able to leave Izaya panting.
