Written for a prompt on drrrkink, and also because I love the hell out of these two and as such couldn't resist a prompt about them. Due to the nature of the characters (and the prompt for that matter, which was for cybersex) about 99% of this fic wound up being in chatlog format. I still feel like I need to apologize profusely for that.
Izaya has a file on Tsukumoya Shinichi, just as he has files on most everyone who might ever be of possible interest. But unlike the others, this particular file remains aggravatingly thin in relation to just how much effort has been put into it.
Tsukumoya Shinichi. No available photographs, no physical description. Real name or alternate aliases: unknown. Age: unknown. Gender: presumed to be male but ultimately unknown. Current or even previous addresses: unknown. Family: unknown. Close associates: unknown. Writer of a few books on odd happenings in Ikebukuro and a dealer in information occasionally although he prefers to remain a neutral party. A self-proclaimed "observer". Exclusively works online, almost entirely out of a personal private chatroom that he claims to be in twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. A statement that appears to be true no matter how impossible it might seem.
Everything is a row of question marks and vague facts that Izaya eyes sourly from time to time. He dislikes not knowing things. He dislikes the fact that no matter how deep he digs he can't seem to unearth any further details even more.
Tsukumoya Shinichi is akin to a ghost, except Izaya doesn't believe in such things. Certainly he is well acquainted with the unusual, but more often than not the simplest answer is the proper one and he prefers to believe that there is nothing unnatural about Tsukumoya beyond the man's astounding ability to cover his tracks.
It's late one evening, while frowning at this file once again, that Izaya decides to make unraveling the mystery that is Tsukumoya Shinichi his hobby for a little while. Something to toy with and fill the time while larger plans slowly unfurl. Everyone needs distractions now and again, and while most people choose more mundane things Izaya considers himself to be far removed from "most people".
It's with this in mind that he logs in to a certain chatroom.
Orihara Izaya, reborn!
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Ah! Why hello there!
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I have to say I'm surprised to see you here today. Usually you only show up when you want something, and there's nothing particularly exciting going on of late that you'd need to consult me about.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Or at least, nothing that you're not already directly involved with.
Orihara Izaya
I can't simply make a social call?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
You could call it that, but we'd both know it for the lie that it is. You want something. Or you're terribly bored. Maybe you just feel like seeing if you could actually manage to get one over on me.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Then again, by your standards maybe that is a social call. You've never struck me as a particularly social creature. Although that doesn't seem quite right. Maybe "social but incapable of actually being social" is a bit closer to the mark.
Orihara Izaya
You have so many misconceptions about me, it's starting to make me question your sources and if you're anywhere near worth what I pay you.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Most personal impressions I have of you are from direct observation in this room, so if they're wrong then I congratulate you on your spectacular mask. But I'm not entirely convinced that they're wrong. Maybe your masks are so good your true self is hidden even from you.
Orihara Izaya
But not from you.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Well, I am a student of human behaviour, just as you are.
Orihara Izaya
Whatever. I'm getting bored with this tiresome circular nonsense. That's not why I'm here.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
You still haven't said why you're here. Not beyond vaguely terming it a "social call" anyway, so I was trying to be social. Do you have a better idea?
Orihara Izaya
I could ask you what you're wearing.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Now that's a clumsy proposition if I've ever heard one. Do you really want to go there?
Orihara Izaya
Why not? Doesn't it seem like we've been circling each other like this for months now?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
No, not even a little bit. And I'm well aware of your history of toying with and using people this way. It's kind of funny that you're trying to do it with me, though. And here of all places. I wasn't aware you were into cyber sex.
Orihara Izaya
I'm not. But you must be. You've said before that you're in this room twenty-four-seven, haven't you? That doesn't leave much room for other urges.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Maybe I'm more like you than you think and don't have much in the way of those other urges.
Orihara Izaya
Are you?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I'm not really inclined to talk about myself. You know that.
Orihara Izaya
So you won't tell me what you'd do if we were face to face. Maybe you're sitting down and I decide to straddle your legs. What then?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
You're actually doing it. I have to say, I'm surprised. I was sure you had more pride than this.
Orihara Izaya
Like you say, I'm bored and a little curious. That's a dangerous combination for me. So. What would you do? You present yourself as masculine in here but are you? No one knows anything about you, not even your real name. Satisfy some of my curiosity at least.
Orihara Izaya
If we were face to face. If I straddled you. If I leaned in close and kissed you. What would you do?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
And if I said that I'd punch you for your trouble?
Orihara Izaya
Then I'd be somewhat disappointed at how average you are. Are you really that average?
...
...
...
Orihara Izaya
You're being awfully quiet.
...
...
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I think I'd pull your hair a bit. You like to believe that you're clever and always in control, but you're not. Not by a long shot. I'm here to prove you wrong.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I'd pull your head back.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I'd bite your lip.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I'd make you gasp.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
You're not the one in control. Not here. Certainly you could walk out at any time, but in the end this is my room, and while you're here you're subject to my whims. I could strike you silent if I wanted to.
Orihara Izaya
Would you?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I don't think so. I enjoy our little back and forths. Even this one, as odd as it is. So now that I've told you what I'd do, it's your move.
Orihara Izaya
You make it sound like we're playing a game here.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Aren't we?
Orihara Izaya
I suppose we are. The oldest game in the world on one of the newest playing fields. It's rather exciting when you think of it that way.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Except we're hardly the first people to play, even on this sort of field.
Orihara Izaya
Don't bleed all the fun out of it. Honestly. Although I have to admit, this would be a little more entertaining if I knew more about you. I could get far more interestingly descriptive that way, don't you think. Let you know just how I'm touching you and all.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
That's disappointing. Now you're back to being clumsily obvious. You know I'm not about to tell you anything about myself so why ask?
Orihara Izaya
I suppose I just couldn't resist. Maybe I was hoping to catch you at a weak moment. You know very well what I look like, after all. You could be picturing me all naked and spread wide and wanting.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
We're jumping ahead to naked already? What about foreplay?
Orihara Izaya
You're the one making foreplay complicated by not even letting me know what you're wearing. So yes, we're naked now.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Ah, maybe I should just take the lead. You're clearly lacking in imagination. I keep expecting better of you and yet you always fall just a tiny bit short of expectations. Maybe you really are losing your touch, not just as an informant but as the grand manipulator you believe yourself to be.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Now don't make that face. I know you're sulking. But I'll make it better for you. I'll kiss you, slow and deep, and nothing else will matter. Nothing but my hands on your body and just how I can make you feel.
Orihara Izaya
I knew it. You have done this before.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
When did I say that I hadn't? You're the one who started this. Don't go acting all arrogantly superior about it now. You're the one who kissed me. You're the one who whisked our clothes away. Now what do you want? Or should I just tell you what I want?
Orihara Izaya
I know you're going to anyway. How do you want me? On my back or on my knees? Or do you want me in you? That would be nice. I think I like the thought of that one especially.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
You just keep jumping ahead so quickly. Let's have you kneeling. I bet you don't do that often. Kneeling and you'd be such a tease while you sucked my cock, wouldn't you? It's a seemingly submissive position, but there's power there. You know that and you're the type to take advantage of that fact, aren't you?
Orihara Izaya
I take advantage of whatever I can. Why should sex be any different? And I know I could make you scream. I bet I could take it all in. Swallow every last inch of you, nice and slow.
Orihara Izaya
Has anyone ever deepthroated you, Tsukumoya? You spend all your time here so I can't help but wonder. How long could you last like that, with me licking you up and down? My hot mouth wrapped around your dick. I'm good at it, you know.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Such a modest little cocktease.
Orihara Izaya
I'd even let you come in my mouth if you wanted. Down my throat. I'd swallow it all. I think I like you well enough to let you.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Mmm. But I don't want to just come in your mouth. I want you in my lap, riding my dick.
Orihara Izaya
Now who's jumping ahead?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I imagine you'd make the most wonderful faces. All twisted up and needy and not wanting to admit how much you enjoy it. How much you want my cock pushed up inside you.
Orihara Izaya
Mmm. Does Tsukumoya have a big enough dick to satisfy me though?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
You don't have to worry about lack of satisfaction. Skill is far more important than size, don't you think? I could probably satisfy you just with my fingers.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
You're easy, Orihara. A desperate, needy, thing. Sex is a means to an end for you, you're not interested if there isn't a clear purpose to it, but that doesn't stop you from enjoying it.
Orihara Izaya
Where *do* you hear these things?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I have my sources just as you have yours and I'm certainly not about to tell.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Mmm. I wonder how tight you are.
Orihara Izaya
Ask your "sources" since you seem to think you have some kind of an insight on my sex life.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I think I've already pointed out that you don't actually have a proper sex life, Orihara. And besides, it would be far more fun to find out for myself. Don't you think?
Orihara Izaya
You won't be finding out much this way.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Still no imagination. And you were so into playing along for a while. Really, you were the one who started all of this so enthusiastically. Is it because you only enjoy games when you think you have the upper hand?
...
...
...
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Ah, you're sulking again. Don't be like that. I have no problems letting you think you're in control. I'm sure that gets you off more than anything. And sitting on my lap, riding my cock, you would have control. Just how fast or slow, it's all up to you. I won't even touch you.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Unless you want it.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Do you want me to?
Orihara Izaya
Of course.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
He speaks!
Orihara Izaya
Don't start. Maybe a little passiveness *would* be nice. Although ultimately it wouldn't be very much fun. I'd much rather have you use me however you'd like. You said you'd take the lead, after all, don't stop now.
Orihara Izaya
Or are you afraid to enjoy yourself? Afraid that I might get some kind of hook into you? Afraid to want me?
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Maybe I'd rather just watch you.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
That probably makes you crazy. You're the one who likes to watch people react, after all. But I'm an observer too and I want to watch you ride me. I want to watch how you move. I want to watch all the expressions you'd make.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I want you to BEG me to touch you, Orihara.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I want you needy and desperate and wanting me so badly that you come the instant my hand touches your dick. Shaking and gasping for air and the only way to stop you from screaming is for me to stick my tongue down your throat.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Because even when you think you're in control, you're not. Especially not here.
Orihara Izaya
Ha! And you are?
Orihara Izaya
How much longer could you last, I wonder? Because I want it.
Orihara Izaya
I want you to come inside me.
Orihara Izaya
That's what you want to hear, right?
Orihara Izaya
You want me to crack. To scream that I need it. To make it plainly obvious that this is your domain. There's no debate about that. This is your room, your rules, and I'll scream for you if that's what you want. But I want to feel it.
Orihara Izaya
Come inside me. Make me scream even more.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
You want it?
Orihara Izaya
Do it.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I should make you beg for it.
Orihara Izaya
I don't beg, and you wouldn't last long enough to make me.
Orihara Izaya
You're on the edge, aren't you? Just let go. Fill me up. I'm not begging for it. I'm demanding it. I want it.
...
...
...
Orihara Izaya
You're being quiet again. Are you having issues typing with one hand?
...
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I'm just thinking about how interesting this is. Things are never dull when you show up in here.
Orihara Izaya
Don't go thinking I instigated this just for your entertainment.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
I wouldn't think that for an instant. And now the question at hand is: "will there be a repeat."
Orihara Izaya
I suppose that depends on both your mood and mine. But I should be going now. I've dallied long enough. There are far more important things that require my attention.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
Of course. Use me and run. I'm not in the least bit surprised. You're not the sort to connect with anyone. There's a part of me that questions if you did this for any reason beyond seeing if you could.
Tsukumoya Shinichi
That's fine with me, though. I find you just as interesting as I'm sure you find me. If you want to try it again I can't say I'd be opposed to the idea. And I'll always be here.
Orihara Izaya
Of course you will. I'll be sure to keep that in mind.
Orihara Izaya, confirmed dead!
