Would you?

[He flexed his wrist, bringing the edge of the katana to rest against the back of Jesse’s knee, just hard enough to make its presence known. A silent reminder that he was not in full control, and that it was by Hanzo’s will that the situation not escalate further — There were still limits to his power over him. Had he simply wanted someone to relinquish control to, Hanzo could have had that several times over. But a man with strength enough to take it, and stand as his equal? That was a rarity.

The sting of the blade barely registered, and he didn’t flinch as it bit deeper into flesh. Years of training had numbed him, prepared him to weather far harsher punishments should he ever find himself in an interrogation situation — But then, this was less threat than it was foreplay, and they both knew it. He recognized the hunger in the other man’s gaze, the sounds he made. He didn’t need to feel the press of his erection to know where this was headed in his mind, and Hanzo wouldn’t deny that his interest was piqued.

It was not a dance he had done often, but he knew the steps. He had married himself to his duty, though his father had spoken of trading him off to some political match more than once. Loveless arrangements, meant to further the needs of the clan, which had fortunately never panned out, for one reason or another. Even if they had, Hanzo would have accepted it as an act of necessity, yet another part of himself handed freely for the sake of Sojiro’s legacy. It had never been about what he wanted, and for years, he had accepted that truth without complaint.

But he wanted this.

There was no doubt that he was playing with fire, and it was far too easy to get burned — But he was a dragon, and was that not his birthright? An empire had been placed on his shoulders, and while he would never allow his own selfish desire to threaten that, he would give himself this. One momentary lapse, one night in exchange for a lifetime sacrificed to their cause.

A smirk curved his lips as he allowed Jesse to guide his head back up, even as his eyes flickered downward. There was no hesitation as he arched his back, welcoming the friction with a throaty chuckle of his own.

It would seem so.

[His fingers slipped around the grip of the other man’s sidearm, pressing up against that boundary once more.]

Perhaps I was not convinced you know how to use it.

[Compliments were a dime a dozen — So long as he was a Shimada, people would pay him lip service. And yet, there was something admittedly satisfying, hearing it coming from the cowboy’s mouth. The sincerity was questionable, but Hanzo suspected that had it come from anyone else, that American drawl would not have sounded even half as charismatic.]

I thought you knew who I was. Do you think I require either, to get what I want?

[This being the rare exception. Now, his name was more detriment than benefit; he could imagine the price for fraternizing with the enemy was quite steep for the both of them. But the appeal of this – and of the man himself – was that it was not the easy choice.

It wasn’t often that the scion was caught by surprise, but the sudden heat of the tongue against his throat managed it. He hissed through clenched teeth, shoulders tensing as his fingers instinctively tightened around the grip of the other man’s revolver. There was a part of him that wanted nothing more than to grab Jesse by the hair, to force him back and taste the blood in his mouth — An option he wasn’t ruling out just yet.

But, if there'd been any lintering question as to whether they were on the same page, it could be put to rest; with the way he was grabbing him, there was no chance Jesse couldn't feel that Hanzo was just as hard as he was.

You tell me, Agent.

[The katana had not been forgotten. He made one last nudge with the weapon before he released it, the sound of metal striking pavement echoing loudly off the alley walls. There was a deliberateness to the timing, a pause to make sure that the other knew it had been a conscious decision, and not some startled reaction. Less surrender, and more a statement of what they both already knew — He didn’t need it.]

I do not like to be disappointed.
