Neuvillette: No use of powers or excessive roughhousing this time. Neuvillette: However, I am interested in abiding by your orders as a change of pace.
the Duke; Right. I’m not looking for a real fight. It’s just something more… relaxed. We can even nix the spar and just do some cardio instead. Come over to Greed, alright, and make sure to have your hair up
[ he’s going to get changed for this - black shorts and a red sleeveless shirt. he’ll fill two bottles of water, one for each of them, and then head into the basement to set them down. he’s dragged a gym mat from the rec center there, mostly to cover the rune when they’re not summoning demons… ]
[ Neuvillette arrives at the basement with his hair up in a ponytail, his body clad in a white racerback tanktop and black track pants. He's only brought with him a small towel in case he sweats. ]
I have admittedly never performed aerobics, but I have been watching certain curious routines on our television set as many fitness experts showcase the best use of their shake weights.
Here. [ he leads him down into the basement. ] I set up a small area for us to work out. [ away from ( most ) prying eyes. ] I can tell you with marked certainty that what I'm about to show you is more substantial than any... 'shake weight' showcases. [ don't mind him rolling his eyes as neuvillette proclaims those people 'experts'. ]
I set some water out and if you get tired or you'd like a break let me know. Let's start with some stretches. [ he shoves neuvillette a few different stretches, taking the time to go over why form is important and things of that nature. he, then, motions for him to give them a try. ] It's important to stretch. It's kind of a warm up to the work out, and it could mean less injuries and pulls.
[ His eyes closely follow Wriothesley as he demonstrates the stretches, though he has a little difficult actually focusing because Wriothesley + a pair of shorts riding up his well-muscled thighs is a dangerous combination...and ogling is definitely not what the task called for. He has to set aside his own carnal urges and concentrate.
He starts with his hands, wrists, and arms, making sure they're limber enough before sitting on the mat and spreading apart his legs in a v so he can try and bend forwards while stretching out his arms as far as his body will allow him. ]
I may need you to push down on my back slightly. My body is not yet accustomed to displaying this level of flexibility outside of water.
[ oogling might not be a required part of the task, but it kind of goes hand in hand with it. wrio expects a little of it, and he knows that he's going to look neuvillette up and down when he's in a similar position. ]
Of course. Let me just... [ he trails off as he moves, taking a knee beside him and setting a hand on his back, one he begins applying pressure to. ] As soon as you start feeling the stretch let me know. We don't want to overdue it, and it's going to be a gradual process.
[ This is starting to feel like a more and more perilous idea the longer he spends inhaling the first drops of sweat starting to gather on Wriothesley's skin, mixed with the aroma of something purely...Wriothesley.
He moves his tail aside to give Wriothesley more access, indulging in the heat of his palms melting into his back until his ligaments start to burn. ]
Can you please assist me with my hamstring stretches next?
Sure. [ he applies pressure for a few more seconds, but then backs off. ] Let's move to a new position too. On your back, Neuvillette. [ he'll stand and move toward his legs. ] And, when you're ready, lift the leg you'd like to start with. [ he's glad to have gotten a chance to move away, even if it's just for a few minutes, because he incidentally didn't think about how this could abruptly turn 'south'. ]
...heh, [ oh neuvillette. ] I'm afraid this is nothing like the orders I give to the inmates. [ but he wonders if neuvillette would be up for some roleplaying sometime. ] I'm acting as a guide right now, an instructor, but if you like getting ordered around, ... [ he chuckles. ] I'm afraid I don't make them do anything. It's up to them to train. Oftentimes their coaches will be the ones running drills. I do fight in the ring sometime, but 'sparring' is as close to training with me they'll get.
[ he takes his heel and presses it into his belly. wriothesley takes another step forward, forcing him to stretch the muscle. ] Keep your other leg flat on the ground. Don't let it slide up.
[ He does his best to follow orders, staring up at Wriothesley as he listens. Though the movements ache slightly do the unfamiliarity of contorting his body like this, he doesn't find them that bothersome. What he does find bothersome is Wriothesley stroking and manipulating his leg in a manner that has all his nerve endings rising at full attention and rapidly being ignited. ]
I would not be opposed to a repeat performance in a better venue and for purposes beyond simply meeting the requirements of your burden.
[ Once Wriothesley close enough, he grips him by the front of the shirt and yanks him even closer to whisper against his ear: ]
We could fulfill your own previous request to keep me bound as you command me, and I would meet your every whim and desire. And should I commit an error, you can also punish me, Your Grace.
I'm not opposed to getting together to do this more often. Exercise, that is. It would do nothing but help in a place like this. I... get up at the crack of dawn in the morning to run, so you could come along with me. We would stretch beforehand and then do cardio afterward, ... [ and then eat breakfast together. shower, cuddle, ...the possibilities are endless. ]
[ n- neuvillette! the door to the basement isn't locked, and now he's halfway to a boner. ] ... [ at least until he calls him 'your grace', and he swears the blood all rushes to his dick so fast he feels like he might just pass out. ] We, uh, w- we could, if you... [ sorry, his brain is rebooting. ] If you wanted.
[ He knows he is being terribly distracting at the moment instead of helpful, but it is rather difficult to focus on anything else but the red gathering at Wriothesley's cheeks and the spike in arousal from his scent. The leg Wriothesley had been working on suddenly hooks around Wriothesley's waist as Neuvillette draws him close. His own eyes then flick from Wriothesley's gaze to his lips. ]
Why don't you finish stretching me until I am ready for something more physically intensive, then you can practice giving me orders? Please do not be gentle with me. My body is far from frail.
-! M- Monsieur. [ he stumbles straight into him as he licks his lips. he's trying not to think with his dick, but it's getting increasingly hard. ] I'm not sure I'm going to last the full 20 minutes I need for this Burden if you keep talking like that, Neuvillette. [ he's trying SO HARD to be good. ] ... [ stop putting THOUGHTS into his head. ] You really want me to order you around, huh?
[ He kisses Wriothesley chastely, barely restraining himself from rocking his own hips upwards. How easy it would be... ]
I do, but only in so far as ordering me which position and exercise you would like me to perform. We can consider escalating matters from there once you have fulfilled your burden's required task.
[ His leg loosens to release Wriothesley, and he switches to the right one so he can continue his hamstring stretches. ]
I'm getting mixed signals here, Neuvillette. [ and now he has a boner! he hopes that it's not that obvious, but he's certain neuvillette knows. ] ...mm, let's get back to it then. Here, let me help.
[ he moves into position to assist in stretching neuvillette, but he slots his foot right against his taint, so when he leans forward to aid in the actual stretch he's pressing his foot against the bottom of his dick. ]
[ Neuvillette's eyes widen at the sudden pressure against his dick, feeling the sole of Wriothesley's foot bear down on him enough to make it react. He swallows down his own groan as his hips lurch up and rock straight into the touch. ]
You are the one sending mixed signals now. I may not know much about proper stretching techniques, but this one seems highly questionable.
[ Not that he's doing much to stop it as blood rapidly swells between his legs. ]
Are you, [ he quirks his head playfully. ] because I’m just following your lead. [ his grin broadens as he removes his foot, leaning down for neuvillette’s hand. he’s not going to linger on that for too long but he IS going to move right into another compromising position. ] Let’s do another stretch… for both the hamstrings and the quads.
I want you to stand, feet together, and then try to touch your toes.
[ Neuvillette takes the hand and stands, a little relieved he's not being provoked further, or this workout really is going to end up terribly derailed. Granted, being asked to bend over is also not really helpful, but he recognizes that that is at least a legitimate stretching maneuver. ]
Please phrase it closer to an order next time, Your Grace. You are supposed to be practicing.
[ He does as asked though, bending down and touching the tips of his feet with his fingers before maintaining the position. ]

Re: day 19.
It is admittedly peculiar being ordered by you as though I was one of your inmates. Peculiar yet unexpectedly stimulating.
Do you often make them perform drills such as this before pankration matches?
