What wouldn't I do for King and Country...
Yes Sir!------------------------------------------------}:-  Asato Hiroki
Chairman's Secretary - Ohayou Productions
The world has....changed
Hiroki wasn't sure what to say as Katsu spoke his piece. How could he define what Katsumi had been before and what he was now. His lips pressed together with the custard right behind his teeth. Slowly he swallowed. Then his brow furrowed, "The you...that you were before you left that day. He was facing harsh realities concerning his world...his family. He was bitter and restless too. But a small part of his heart wasn't like that at all. Probably at first, he thought I was just his property....and I certainly didn't feel love for him. But...over time something changed. His smiled brightened and we had fun together. He started to be more of himself than what he was told to be...starting to pull out of his shell. Sometimes, he was as soft as a kitten when we were alone...and well, he loved me."
Hiroki sighed slowly, "No...you're not the same. And well...I know you don't think of me the same. And yes....sometimes, I'm scared. And..." He stopped for a moment trying to say the things he felt. It was hard and his chest hurt while talking with the ache in his heart, "I just want you to be happy and I promised him I'd be here for you when he got out of surgery. We both thought everything would be alright and he'd come back to me. But...that isn't what happened. He didn't come home. I don't know if that part of you will ever return. So....I'm just taking things day by day. Because when I look at you, I see him. But...I don't see him in your eyes."
Hiroki was honest as he could be about his inner heart. Fleeting flashes of memories wouldn't bring back the feelings they had once shared. "I know the surgery helped your head and maybe saved your life. You don't seem out of control with madness like he used to be...at times. And maybe for that, I should be thankful. I just miss...my Kitten Fur...." He hung his head because a tear rolled down his cheek. He didn't want to cry for his loss again...and he wiped his eye quickly taking a very deep breath.

Setting the custard down on the table, Azriel moved carefully and slowly until he was sitting in Hiroki's lap, legs on either side of the man. Mindful of the elephant's injury however, Katsu leaned against him, arms around Hiroki's shoulders as he held the man to him gently.
Black nails wound their way up from behind, carefully running through Hiroki's hair in a soothing slow motion. "Don't cry, Asato-kun..." the bat whispered gently. "You would have lost your Kitten Fur had he, had I, not gotten the surgery... I'm not a doctor but having a cyst the size of a bottle-cap in your head can't be good. Would you have cared for me so much if I'd turned on you in my madness? I can remember those moments, you know... remember the sheer willpower to not touch you or Kaito-kun while my mind burned..."
Sighing softly, Azriel closed his eyes as he laid his head on the older man's shoulder, his fingers continuing to rub soothingly through Hiroki's hair.
"Give me time... ne? Touch me as if I were the same man... talk to me as if I were still your Kitten Fur... If you want my heart to change... if you want me to think of you as more than my pet... than my property... Change me like you changed my heart before, Asato-kun. I won't hurt you for your honesty... the old me wanted you safe... and the Katsumi of now wants you safe and by my side. I am a fearful creature, Asato-kun... wary and watching like a caged kitten who's been beaten one too many times... You'll coax me back out... won't you?"
He understood what the older man said... what he felt... and a part of Azriel wanted to understand the relationship that the pre-surgery Katsu and this man had.
Was it out of mere curiosity?
Maybe...
Would it make him a better man, a better star, to understand?
Definitely...
It would benefit both men in the end. Azriel would learn and Hiroki would be happy and... perhaps... the bat's heart would change just a bit.
He did want to understand love, after all.

That weight on his lap was so familiar and warm but light. Hiroki rested his head on Katsumi's shoulder and just listened to him whisper softly. "I know...I wanted him to get well. I knew he wasn't feeling well." He sighed a little because there had been a few times that Katsumi had hurt him in his madness. And he hoped that things would be better for Katsumi but he hadn't expected to be the one thing forgotten.
He nodded slowly, he'd try to give Katsumi all the time he'd need but...they wouldn't be together that much in the future due to the tour. His arms slid over the small of Katsu's back and caressed him. Asato's lips slowly kissed Katsumi's shoulder. "You're so beautiful. I'll...try my best but I still wish I could just give you back what you lost." He wanted to hold the young man tighter but his chest wouldn't allow that. However, he could....kiss here...and here... Slowly his lips worked along Katsumi's next small nibbles and nips between moist warm kisses until he reached the lips that hinted of custard aroma. Gently, he placed a soft kiss upon those lips and wished he could do more but, his injury wouldn't allow extracurricular actives beyond this.

Azriel's dark eyes closed and he leaned his head to the side, allowing for the soft sweet kisses that trailed his neck. It felt nice... the gentleness... so very different from the actions of others who desired his flesh.
What few memories he had recalled this kindness... and the bat relished it deeply.
"It seems you are the one who has lost something, Asato-kun." Katsumi whispered. "I have gained long forgotten memories... and health... and while I may have forgotten many things about you... I still have you... and you still have me... different as I may be."
Hiroki's lips descended on his own and Katsu gladly accepted, pulling the man close very gently as he deepened that kiss.
Eventually he pulled back, knowing that the healing man would need a breath. The bat smiled softly, looking into Hiroki's eyes with his own... but he didn't say anything.

He could have been content to just keep kissing and savoring those tempting lips before him. But maybe he was thankful that they let go to breath because he would want so much more than kisses if he were only well. Asato's dark eyes just drifted in the pools of those dark ones before him. "I do still have you...."
Asato's hand reached up and tenderly caressed that cheek...drifting just around the ear and behind the head. Pulling that fuzzy head in just close enough so he could kiss that soft hair he loved to touch. "I truly will long for your return from the tour."
"Mm...maybe we should take that bath now...and..." Asato paused to reach down and pull up Hi-chan by the scruff. The small kitten looked like he had been caught doing something bad. "I think he chewed a hole in my sock."
The kitten's little eyes looked like he was trying to appear innocent as he faced Katsumi. They were starting to turn a bit more green as time went on.

Katsumi reached out, taking the kitten from Hiroki. "I'll save you from the mean Asato..." he teased with a wink the elephant's way.
With almost unnatural grace, Azriel removed himself from the older man's lap, keeping Hiyokomame up against his chest lovingly as he did so.
"I doubt this little guy will want a bath too... but he can run around on the tile with a yarn ball while we soak, ne?" Katsu asked, trying not to think about having to leave the kitten and Hiroki for two months.
It would be a long time...
Not only that, but he'd be busy day in and day out...
Touring with Shou would be hard work and Azriel was only just beginning to think that this was far less appealing than he originally thought.
But now he was committed. He'd make a good deal of money... money that would help back up his purchase of Oreo thankfully.
"When I get back..." Katsumi spoke as they walked from the kitchen. "You'll be well enough to do more than just kiss me." the bat teased with a wink.

"Saving him? What about my sock?" Asato laughed just a little. It still hurt to laugh too much. "He probably won't want a bath but you never know. Some cats don't mind water. However, I think having an extra small kitten in the tub with us might be a bit much." He got up carefully from the chair and walked out of the room with Katsumi then headed up the stairs to his bedroom.
The bathtub was indeed large and fit the style of the home. Hiroki turned on the water and let the tub start to fill. While the tub was filling he started unbuttoning his shirt the rest of the way so he could get to his bandages. "When you get back, I plan on kissing every inch of your body...." he said with a lick to his lips. "But that little guy, he'll probably be needy when you get back."

"You own a giant house... I'm sure you can afford a new sock." Azriel replied with a smile, nuzzling the kitten against him. "Besides... he was bored and your mean butler made him sit on the cold hard floor..."
Oh yes, the bat was taking the side of the cat.
Once in the bathroom, Katsumi released Hiyokomame, who quickly went bounding and sliding across the tile to his small water and food bowl, getting a drink. As for himself, the vocalist walked up to Hiroki and pulled his shirt aside, his gentle fingers beginning to peel the bandage away from the wound. Eventually the bandage fell away and the stitches and slightly red flesh were visible.
"It looks normal..." Katsu spoke softly, letting the pads of his fingers move over the edges of the injury, checking for any inflammation. He understood wounds better than most. "You're healing... so I think I'll look forward to these promised 'every inch' kisses... the kitty will just have to wait." Azriel added with a wink.

"Ok so maybe you're right. I can afford one sock." said Hiroki as he dragged off the socks on his feet. One had a small hole now right by the big toe. I hope that's only because he's getting in some teeth."
Hiroki looked down at his chest then up at Katsumi. "I hope I won't scar to badly once the stitches are gone." He just stood there letting Katsumi look over his injury. But then he started reached over and started trying to peel Katsumi out of his clothes. "I'll be marking a calendar till that day. Then....I'll start with your toes. If Hi-chan doesn't get to your sock first."
Glancing at the water, he smirked a little "I think that's as hot as I can stand today but for you it's probably perfect."

Azriel smirked. "I like scars you know... so I wouldn't mind if there is one..."
After all, the bat HAD licked that wound in the past. He wanted to again, to kiss those stitches again so that Hiroki would see that such a thing didn't bother him.
His nails carefully pricked at the skin near the wound. "You're so vain, Asato-kun... one little scar isn't going to turn me away. If anything you should wear it proudly. You survived. It's your proof of that will." Katsumi smiled up at the other man before reaching down and pulling his shirt off over his head, tossing it to the floor... where Hiyokomame immediately made a nice comfy nest within.
Of course Katsu didn't have scars... though it wasn't because he hadn't been given them in the past. No... His had been repaired to keep him as a desirable pet in the depths. Except now there was a new scar on his head... one that was hidden by his hair.

Hiroki smiled as if he didn't know what to do with the younger man, "You've no problem with scars. Well...mm...ok. I'll try to be ok with this one if you're not going to mind it." He put aside his glasses and then scooted over to the tub carefully dipping his feet in. "Oh yeah...this is warm. " He slowly sank in as he continued to speak grumbing just a little, "I'm not as vain as some men but it's right on my chest. And...well I don't wear a top on the beach usually. Not nearly as sexy as smooth skin there. Like your baby soft skin."
"Awh...Hi-chan likes your shirt. He's going to be so spoiled. You should take a few photos of him before your tour. I'll be sending you some too. Maybe, if I am lucky I can come see one of your shows. Maybe the one here in Tokyo. I'm sure when you get back you'll be exhausted. But I bet the experience will be worth it for you." Hiroki knew Katsu needed to get his feet a bit more wet so he could actually start creating his own business plans for his future solo tours. Probably traveling with Shou would be...good in that regard. If Katsumi could deal with Shou's crazy nature.
"You know one year Shou changed up his whole tour midway when he got bored with the costumes he was wearing? At least that is what I was told. Your father was furious." Hiroki chuckled. "I remember Aki ribbing him a little on that. But then again the costumes after that were outstanding. I am guessing that is when his current designer stared working with him."

"Yes well I've my own scars. Or had. They were removed through various methods... you could always do that yourself as well. It doesn't hurt and you'll be nice and smooth, just like me." Katsumi said, stretching his arms up over his head before stripping out of his pants and socks, tossing them over to the clothes pile as well before he descended into the bath.
The bat shivered, wrapping his arms around his chest as an absolutely relaxing groan passed his lips.
"So warm...." Azriel whispered, practically melting with the heat of the water.
Oh yes... he loved baths...
Blinking, Katsu brought his mind back online as he reclined. "It wasn't my choice to get rid of my scars of course... but honestly... I think it will suit you. A battle scar to remind you what could have been. As for Shou-san... mmm... he better not get bored. I'm not changing my show. Besides, he'll have a light set and a dark set so it would be like two different shows all in the same tour. I'll have to text you which shows nearby are light and dark so you can see each." the bat spoke, flicking the water with his dark nails.
Hiyokomame mewed, stretched, then settled back down with a yawn.

Hiroki watched Katsumi descend into the tub and he smiled a bit because that happy melting look on Katsumi face was something that was exactly as he remembered it. Hiroki leaned back and let the water sooth every aching muscle. "I suppose I can keep the 'battle scar' for a little while. But...I'm not sure it's quite me. I'm not sure I think it's that...mm..sexy. But if you want me to...." He groaned as the heat warmed his injury. "It's so sore but the water feels so good there even though it's a little painful."
Then he smiled as he closed his eyes and rested there for a few minutes before saying, "Oh...well I'm sure that his assistant will try to keep him from doing anything that crazy. But it has happened in the past. However, you're right, he's two distinct themes and with the big arenas it would be completely nuts to change everything last minute."
Even though Hiroki preferred being active, right now, it felt wonderful to just do nothing and allow the water to seep into his aches and pains. "I bet you'll have a lot of fun even if the trip exhausts you." he murmured and sank a bit deeper so his face was barely above the water. "MMm.....This bathroom doesn't have that lavender soap you like to use. But...I have fruity soap that smells like cherries and vanilla."
But then, his eyes flicked open and suddenly he reached over pulling Katsu in between his arms and picked up the body wash with a sponge nearby...."Time to scrub the kitten!" It was a small burst of energy from the older man as he squeezed soap on the sponge and started scrubbing Katsu under the armpits and over the chest.

A busy day... after a very relaxing morning.
Akihiko and Izzy had remained asleep after their chocolate almond filled bed-time experiment and oddly enough the young tiger had gotten up sooner than his partner and showered.
Once Izzy was awake and showering as well however, Narcissus had stripped the bed and tossed the white chocolate stained sheets into the washer to bleach. But before that... well... Akihiko had made a few calls.
Having taken the death registry from his grandfather's funeral, the young Koyasu had called and set up lunch appointments with many of those who had attended... one of them including Izzy Lucky's father. While work on the planning stages of his next tour was important... it was also crucial to keep Aki's contacts alive and well for Ohayou. Hiroki couldn't do that right now, and the young tiger had to make sure those contacts didn't worry about Ohayou's stability.
So by the time that Izzy had gotten out of the shower, Narcissus was in the living room, sitting on the sofa, a small stack of cook books on the table and one of them open in his lap. Akihiko was focused on the pages, looking through it to find ideas on what he might wish to fix for their dinner guests.
"What do you mean not sexy? You got shot! You lived! That's beyond sexy, baka." Azriel commented, playfully splashing water at the older man.
But then his dark eyes turned to the kitten asleep on his clothes... nails descended into the water... before flicking the water on those black nails at the furball.
Hi-chan looked up quickly, popped up onto all fours, little butt in the air with his tail swishing, ready for a fight.
Katsu did it again and the kitten jumped at the water, then backed up, swishing it's backside again. Finding this reaction amusing, the bat continued to flick water at Hiyokomame while the kitten continued to fight with the invisible attacker.
A fearless tiny kitten ready to scrap...
But then suddenly Azriel was getting scrubbed and he closed his eyes, sighing slightly as the sponge and warm soapy water rubbed over his arms and chest. "Maybe I really am a kitten... I like to get nice warm pets after all." he teased with a wink, waiting for his turn at the sponge.
(((OOC: Sorry this was posted so late. I thought I'd finished and posted it then realized a few hours later that I hadn't... -facepalm-)))

Hiroki laughed as he watched the kittens play. Well at least one of them was certainly a kitten but the other...he wanted to be one too. "Seems that he doesn't hate water but he does want to attack it. I wonder what will happen when he needs a bath?"
He grinned quite a bit when Katsumi seemed enjoy the scrubbing. So the older man made certain to scrub over every inch that he could reach of the young man before giving up the sponge. He then squeezed a bit of shampoo on to his hand and lathered up Katsumi's hair until all the brown hair turned white with suds. "You look so cute." he said with a lighthearted grin as he leaned back to enjoy the view. If only he could fill the tub with bubbles then it would be perfect. Maybe next time, when he was feeling better.
"Maybe we should get a little shelf to hook on to the tub so Hi-chan can sit up here and be amazed by the water." The little kitten down below was batting at a small puddle that he could see his reflection in. This amused Hiroki and then he glanced over at his mirror, "I think we should show him his own reflection in the cheval in the bedroom. I want to see what he does."

In the living room as Akihiko read his cookbooks. Tora watched from the floor then bunched up like a pudgy ball and shot himself straight up finally landing on the couch. His round body landed with a less than graceful plop in between Akihiko's legs. Then he proceeded to turn around in circles until he was finally satisfied and curled up right there at the warmest point of Akihiko's body.
Izzy walked in wearing a pair of comfortable loose pants and was reading something on his laptop that he carried in the other hand. "Oh....Shou's costume are going to be amazing. Wow... awh... Hideo looks so...omg...seriously....wow. I can't imagine how he got Hideo to dress like that!" He giggled and flopped down into his chair and started tapping out an email in return.
But then he glanced up and looked over at Akihiko then noticed the kitten in between his legs. "I guess Tora likes to be warm too." Izzy giggled and wonder about his fat fuzz ball. His eyes glanced around searching for Ra only to find him somehow on top of the new cat tower peering around the room as if he owned the place.
