I. Seeing for the First Time, a Second Time

[ Finn's got a headache that slowly wants to transition into a migraine but it's like the best migraine ever if there is such a thing. It's caused by the sudden amount of light and information and everything that his eyes are suddenly getting. Because he can see now. After being blind for a few weeks, he can see.

In a way, it's almost like just became blind all over again considering how much it's knocked him off-balance. He'd just managed to get used to navigating with the Force and now--

Well, now he's kind of gawking. Finn's already gotten Blue and James seen to in the infirmary, and now he's just sort of wandering around. (He's going to go back soon, though, since he didn't really want to leave them in the first place.) What Finn should maybe do is go to his room, rest his eyes, slowly crawl back into the world, but that's obviously not what he's doing.

It's just. Everything. Everything is so pretty and shiny, and how did he forget all of these little things? The floor is so polished that it's practically reflective. There are tiny little lights on the doors that blink bright colors when they sense movement. And don't even get him started on the view outside the windows.

He spends a lot of time in the sunlight room for the next few days and can be found squinting at the fake flowers and fake trees and fake sky. There's a dopey grin on his face, even if he's trying to find tells that prove these aren't real.

During the station's evening hours, however, he's usually in the common living area. Finn's found a window with a couch in front of it and usually just sits there in the dark, watching the outside. There's not much to see if you've seen this view a million times like he has, but it reminds him of the rare glimpses of space he'd get during his childhood. Weirdly, it took all this to remember why he treasured those sights so much.

... For anyone that argued with him back in Braccia, though, this is absolutely not proof that he wasn't fine being blind. Because he was. It was fine. Everything was fine. This is just... better. ]

II. /plays that one mulan song

[ True to his word, Finn can be found in the training room during the station's morning hours. This is where he goes for his own training, anyway, so it's not like he's going out of his way to wait on someone that may not appear.

But if they do appear, they'll be met with a bright smile and a lot of questions. After the whole "how are you? how was your morning? did you sleep okay?" since he's in such good spirits lately, he'll actually ask the real questions. What do you want to learn? What do you already know? Have you ever been in a fight before? Have you ever used a weapon before? Etc.

If you're a seasoned fighter and just here to spar, he's down with that, too. Everyone needs to keep their skills sharp.

Want to learn self-defense? Well, the first lesson is to know how to fall properly, because you're going to fall a lot. You should also know how to take a punch, how to give a good punch, how to break defenses, how to disarm your opponent, how to handle the weapon you just disarmed them of, all of that good stuff.

Want to learn how to use a firearm? Be prepared for a lecture before you even so much as see a gun. Don't point it at people, always assume it's ready to fire, don't point it at people, keep your finger off the trigger unless you're shooting it, and, for Force sake, don't point it at people. If he trusts you enough after The Lecture, then he'll let you give it a go with every single safety precaution he can think of, but don't expect to use one on your first day with him.

>> ooc. He'll be doing this for the entirety of their downtime, so feel free to start a thread at any point of the learning process you prefer. ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[ Finn cries out with him, nails digging in hard enough to leave marks. His back arches and head tilts back to the ceiling, spilling over Jim's hand and torso and chest. But the moment he even remotely begins to come back to himself, Finn opens his eyes to watch James fall apart below him, even while still clenching around him and riding that high. James, though. That's a sight he wants to see again.

Eventually, he begins to come down, shaking and heaving for breath. Can't really move right now, unfortunately, or he's sure he'll just fall, but Finn does slowly lower himself a little. His arms and knees keep him braced, at least. Not that his mind is on that. He's still watching James. ]

[ Well, that sure is a sight. Jim can't even bring himself to blink, lest he'll lose a single second of Finn blissed out of his mind, so he definitely doesn't close his eyes all throughout, moaning and panting as he milks Finn's climax out of him to the last drop, his own hips rocking hard and fast as he spills everything into him too.

His own breathing comes in long, heaving groans, body going limb below Finn as he comes down from his own orgasm. A smile plasters easily across his face, though, and he reaches for Finn's sides and pulls him down for a kiss, a little sloppy and breathless but hot. ]

[ Finn moans filthily into the kiss, his whole body relaxing, too. The kiss itself is definitely sloppy and breathless, his lungs still wanting for air, but he doesn't plan on cutting this short either. He practically craves the closeness.

But Finn also doesn't want to put all his weight one James and holding himself up with his arms is becoming less practical by the second. He parts from the kiss to rest their foreheads together, just breathing for a second before pushing himself up just a little, letting Jim slip out of him with a hiss. When he comes back down, the intention is to get on his side, but that more or less fails with half of himself still mostly on top of James. His weight, at least, gets pressed into the bed.

Finn grows his smile then, laughing, before taking another messy kiss. ]

[ Honestly, Jim wouldn't complain at all about having Finn's weight on top of him, even though they're the same height and Finn's definitely beefier than he is. Maybe it'd get uncomfortable after the euphoric high of the chemicals flooding his body has subsided. But either way, it's not something to worry about since Finn is careful to settle for a more comfortable position.

And he does still like to feel some of his weight on him, drawing out a long, pleased sigh from him.

He tilts his head to return the kiss, his lips curled upwards despite interrupting the contact just a little. Fingers splay on Finn's sides, drawing slow, aimless circles up and down on his skin, and his kisses continue along Finn's cheek and jaw, down his neck, even after their lips part. ]

[ His hand finds the side of Jim's jaw, keeping him in place during the kiss but floating down to his neck when James begins to move. Finn tilts his head up, makes room for him, and laughs because of that same euphoric high. Also, feeling Jim's smile against his skin is pretty fantastic.

He shifts a little against the tough at his side, pressing into it where he can, before speaking in quiet voice. ] You're amazing.

[ Jim hums, pretty pleased with all the contact still going on, extending that residue of pleasure that still sends a buzzing sensation along his skin, making his very fingers and toes tingle pleasantly. He nuzzles against Finn's neck, then presses a gentle bite on it before pulling away. ]

Well, so are you. [ He's not going to tell Finn he's never heard that before, but he's never heard it being said quite like that, and it's never made him feel as happy as it does now. ]

[ Finn's laugh comes out more as a giggle, not sure if he really believes James but knowing that it makes him happy, regardless. James makes him happy in general.

He spends a moment with a hand cupping his jaw, just looking at him and being ridiculously grateful that he can see him at all, especially like this. And seeing James happy, too... It does a lot for him. But after that second, he leans in to take another deep kiss. ]

[ Well, he's sure not about to complain about another kiss, especially now that his breathing's a little calmer. Still feels like Finn's stealing air from his lungs, but after a sound of surprise he's quick to return the kiss, arm wrapping around Finn's neck and holding him close as he parts his lips to return it gladly, his leg folding and curling loosely around Finn's own, sole idly rubbing up and down Finn's calf. ]

[ Finn intended this to be a deep but brief kiss. Jim's response has him seriously reconsidering that, though. He moans back into it, pushing his leg closer so James has better access, but... it doesn't continue to go so well while his smile starts to ruin the kiss and all. Eventually, he breaks away with another breathless laugh, nuzzling against his cheek, and taking a few more shallower kisses. ]

Sorry. [ It's even said with a laugh. But Finn squeezes Jim a little tighter and seems to settle in for good. Not going anywhere tonight, sir. ]

[ It's fine, really; in fact, it's not long before Jim's laughing right along with Finn, kiss breaking and his head falling back in his pillow. ]

I think I can forgive you, just this once, [ He says with a grin plastered on his face. His eyes close for a moment and he tilts his head to press his lips back to Finn's, hands reaching down a little lower to pull some of the covers up and over them both. Cleaning up can wait until later, right now he just wants them both to be comfortable. ]
