Ockiss24 day 7: Dare! With that, we complete the week!
Ocs: Cobalt (inkling), Yuki (octoling) (ft. Boron in foreground)
World: Splatoon
Drabble below! Warning there are slight drinking mentions!
It was Cobalt's birthday, and all of his friends had been invited over for the party! It was a nice little gathering arranged by his closest friend Neon, and everyone else chipped in with snacks, games, and of course drinks.
Cobalt doesn't do alcohol, but plenty of his pals partake - and it seems that Taro and Yuki are about to both have their first taste.
Taro spat it out almost immediately, while Yuki considered the taste, shrugged, and chugged the rest of the bottle before he could be told maybe that wasn't the best idea!
Needless to say, it was strong stuff and Yuki got a little tipsy. Mercury was sure to supply him with plenty of home made bread in an attempt to soak up some of it.
The night rolled on, and Boron organized some games! Everyone had some fun with cards and some other stuff as everyone that does drink slowly gets down to Yuki's level of drunkenness.
But then, with a grin, Boron fished the bottle that Yuki drained from the trash, holding it over his head.
“Spin or dare! Let's do it!!” Boron cheered, giggling to himself.
“Spin or dare?” Taro asked inquisitively.
“Its spin the bottle with a way out!” Boron says, “usually you spin and kiss whoatever it spins to, but we got peeps like my sis merc who haaates to kiss at parties, and cobalt only smooches dudes! So!! If it lands on you and you're not kissin shit, you gotta do a dare that the spinner picks!! You can go back and kiss if the dares too much, but yeah! Who's in???”
Everyone was, and the game began! Of course, majority was doing dares, though Neon definitely cheated with kisses on foreheads and cheeks. Not to mention she's always wearing a gas mask, so it feels more like a puppy headbutting the recipient than anything.
Eventually, it was Cobalt's turn! He spun the bottle hard, a couple of his more drunk friends cheering about the speed. Slowly, it slowed down, until…
…it landed on Yuki.
An uproar of ooh's come from the drunk peanut gallery.
Of course it had to be Cobalt's crush. And Yuki was not only drunk, but he had a 100% dare rate so far. As much of a nice present a kiss would be, Cobalt knew his chances were likely low, if not zero.
Yuki, after he finished staring at the bottle, scooted over by cobalt, knocking the bottle to the side on the way. From a light dare from Rhodi earlier, Yuki's usual face mask was hanging off his right ear, to stay off for at least one more turn. A weak dare by Spin or Dare standards, but appreciated by Cobalt in secret. Yuki's pouty, flushed face was really cute!
A ways away, Yuki continued to stare, his thin, still-growing-back tentacles waving around in the air. Was it stress, or because he was hammered?
Taking it easy, Cobalt rested his weight on one of his arms, momentarily re-adjusting his little birthday hat before he glanced back at Yuki. “So, I'm guessin’ it's a da-”
Before he could finish, Yuki had smushed his lips against Cobalt's, with enough force that it kinda hurt a bit. They froze there for a bit, stuck in the moment. It was long enough that Cobalt heard Boron's camera go off, likely immortalizing the moment forever.
After some time, Yuki pulled back. Flustered and drunk, and strangely as breathless as Cobalt had been left. He squinted at cobalt, a warbling little octoling noise rising from his throat before he spoke.
“I ain't a coward!! I'm takin yer dare too!!” Yuki announced, sitting back on his knees and crossing his arms, “Do your WORST, Cobalt!!!! I'll take it all!!!”
“Oooh, tell em Yuki!” Neon cheered.
Cobalt… couldn't think of what he was going to even dare before.
“I- u-uh- um…” Cobalt stuttered, “i-i really don't know! I guess- i guess do whatever you really really want to do????? I dunno!! I think you win here!”
Yuki considered the words, a thoughtful tentacle touched to his chin, as his arms remained crossed. After a moment, Yuki nodded to himself.
And then, he wormed his head into Cobalt's lap, closing his eyes.
“I'm gonna nap then!” Yuki declared, getting cozy. “It's real late. Gimme your bed if you got other games!! To do! But yer not aloud to kiss ANYONE. ‘Cause… ‘cuz I won. That's why!!”
And with that, he was silent. Several friends cackled over the situation, and several more pictures were taken. The game is thoroughly disrupted, so breaks are had to eat more snacks, talk, and take bathroom trips.
“Eh, s-sorry about the brother of mine…” Taro apologized, “Taro did not think he would be a… well… drunk crazy. Would Cobalt like Taro to move him?”
“I-it's fine! Let him sleep it off. He'll probably wake with a nasty hangover, so I don't mind letting him take my bed. Everyone who's had a drink will probably be sleepin’ over anyways.” Cobalt replied with a smile, patting Yuki's head gently.
“Ok! Um, where will cobalt sleep? With Yuki?” Taro asked curiously, seeming quite invested in the answer.
“Would he really want that, you think?” Cobalt asked, “I want him to be cozy, and from what I gather about him he doesn't really like being close to people, especially while out of it. You know?”
Taro thought for a long minute, deeply considering the whole thing. “Eh… then maybe do rest near, not in bed? Yuki wakes in night sometimes. Wakes scared, and needs who he trusts. He does trust you. Yuki will need someone if a hang-over adds to this. Taro can stay with other guests - and Cobalt, you get me if Yuki asks, ok? He does like soft beds in bad times.”
“Sounds like a plan!” Cobalt replied, and gave a thumbs up.
The night went on, and ran somewhat late. Those staying settled in the living room, and those sober enough to leave bid their farewells, save for Taro. He was set up with a blanket and pillow close to neon, second earliest to sleep.
Cobalt gave Yuki his bed, digging out his air mattress to use nearby. As Taro predicted, Yuki woke up sometime in the night, and the hangover made his night-terror awakening much worse. All through it, Cobalt was there for him, and woke Taro to help.
In the end, Yuki made Cobalt stay in bed with him after the nausea settled down. Taro took the air matress Cobalt used earlier, and things settled down into a more peaceful quiet.
“... Hey, Cobalt…?” Yuki muttered softly, stirring him from the edge of sleep.
“Mhm?” Cobalt muttered quietly, arms around the octoling reassuringly.
“... I'm sorry I did that earlier… the kiss.” Yuki apologized, “E-even if it was part of the game, I feel bad for doing that without asking if you were ok with it….”
Cobalt shook his head. “Don't be. If I didn't feel like it, I wouldn't play. And… I really didn't mind yours.”
“You sure…?” Yuki asked.
“Mhm. M’ sure.” Cobalt replied, barely paying attention to his words as he drifted off, “I'd let’cha kiss me as maaany times as ya want… whenever ya dare to… goodnight.”
With that, Cobalt was asleep. Yuki stared at him in the dark for a little while longer, ruminating on his words until his looming headache made him shut his eyes again.
He cuddled up closer, moving blindly until his lips found Cobalt's again. It was much shorter, but even more enjoyable with a clearer head.
Afterwards, Yuki relaxed, and finally felt safe enough to sleep again. He cuddled as close as he could be.
“Goodnight…”
