Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kazuo sighed slowly as he wandered from his job to his boyfriends house. It was a trek, but damn it, he wanted to see Kraven after everything he's been through. He has a few bruises on his arms, a fading one on his face, but nothing broken, nothing too painful. The small Japanese man had been through some scuffles that didn't always end well. Whatever.

Slowly he twisted the door knob, testing if it was locked. When it wasn't he blinked and just shrugged, wandering inside and sighing at the cool air. Summer was fast approaching which meant that his cold boyfriend's apartment would be completely justified and not at all crazy.

"Kray, you home?" He called out, taking off his socks and shoes before padding about, checking various rooms first.

He heard the hissing despite Kraven trying to cover it up and his worry spiked. Wandering back to the door, he locked it up and then just wandered back to lock it and then headed towards the bedroom. And then Kraven turned the corner and saw bruises and Kazuo just beamed up at him, showing it didn't hurt. "I'm fine. I literally tripped over my shoelaces and smacked my face against the register at work. It's nothing new or serious."

Klutzy Kazuo wasn't a far fetched idea. He worked his jaw a little before rolling his shoulders and wandered over to the taller man and just pushed his face into that chest, sighing.

"You haven't answered my texts, a*****e. Are you okay?"

His smile turned into a frown when Kraven said he'd been in a fight. With a heavy sigh, he moved over to his boyfriend even more and wandered back to the bed with him and then blinked when the other seemed to almost topple over one way or another. With a worried expression, Kazuo looked at the man, sighing as he stood between Kraven's knees, hugging the man to him, letting that large head rest on his chest and stomach and just pet a hand through the other's hair lightly.

"Hey. Don't die," he whispered seriously. "...Please? ...I just.." He let out a soft noise and kissed his head softly. "....I care about you, you stupidly tall a*****e."

The Japanese man grunted a little when his shirt was tugged on and then sighed, watching the other's face. "Pass out after we get you naked," he whispered, kissing him softly. With taht, he went to do just that, tugged at the other's shirt until he managed to squirm it off of him and then looked at the wounds again. Still, he frowned harder and sighed.

"Gotta get some cream to help your bruises. You look like a pinata."

The 'I love you' bit took the smaller by surprise and he stared down at his boyfriend with a confused look on his face, probably a bit too long. With a deep breath he tilted the other's head up and kissed him deeper, nipping his lips before smiling. "...I love you, too," he whispered before retreating to do as he was instructed. Gauze. Ointment. Probably some band aids. Ugh. What a whiplash of emotions day this was turning out to be.

He came back not too much later and showed him the supplies. "Might as well get comfortable."

Of course Kraven did a rough patch job on himself. Rolling his eyes, Kazuo set off to do just that after making sure none of them needed stitches or anything. Once the cream was applied and the bandages were set, the man shoved the other back by his shoulders, making sure he didn't hit any bruises and then shifted to tug off his boyfriend's pants and somehow get him in the blankets.

"I'm fine. I got checked out at a clinic. Go to sleep."

Mind in the gutter. Kazuo gave him a wan smile at that and then just leaned against the clingy man now, nosing into him where there were no bandages or bruises. The brunette sighed and just kissed at a patch of skin under his lips and pulled the blanket around them so they were nice and warm. Though, yes, one of Kazuo's feet poked out otherwise he would absolutely die of heat in this blanket. Oh well.

"Not dirty minded. You should rest, big idiot."

It was honestly spoke with affection and a soft smile on his lips.
