Psyren Call: drabble collection

by Cairnsy

A collection of short ficlets. Most will feature Haruhiko and Lan, but there will be a healthy dose of Ian, Kagetora, and Matsuri thrown in as well. Mixture of gen, shounen-ai, and het. 07: Futility - Haruhiko gen.

3. Gazelle: Matsuri x Kagetora

Gazelle
(Challenge: for the writing_game prompt 'gazelle', 200 word limit. Matsuri/Kagetora)

When they first met, Kagetora was stupid enough to think Matsuri was a gazelle in human form. It was all the sleek lines and long legs that did him in, and it was a mistake, he learned, that most men made. There was so much beauty there – so much sexually charged elegance – that it was easy to see the lines and the legs and not the deliberate temptation that lurked beneath them.

Unlike most other men, Kagetora was a quick learner. On their second meeting, it took only one dry smile for him to catch on that the closest thing to a gazelle in the room was the one reflected (hungrily, predatorily) in Matsuri's eyes.
