Hello Bab, could I please see what your pretty mind comes up with for “voice kink” + Pale? Thanks a bunch!!! ❤️
700w, NSFW
Pale has one helluva mouth on him, he does. That was the very first thing you had ever had as an introduction to the man -- the sound of his voice, shouting out in the late night alleyway between your two apartment buildings. It was a voice you'd certainly never heard before, and one you were likely to never forget, even if you had never had another earful of it again.
But you did, oh you did, and somehow along the way, you wound up tethered to this man like a ship to its buoy, wound up falling so hard and so fast for him that you got more than you could have ever bargained for.
Sure, he was a fast talkin' cursin' dirty-minded sonofabitch, but then again, it's the 08s and you live in New York City, who wasn't? No, you didn't mind the way he spoke, in fact, if you really have to think about it...you find that you really really like it.
There's something sensual about the way he talks to you when he fucks you. Not in the usual sense, not in the sense where he's sweet, because he sure as shit ain't sweet in the slightest. But there's a deep resonating kinda quality to it that has your knees go weak when he rambles on and on about how good your cunt feels on his cock.
When he presses his mouth right up against your ear, it sends shivers down your spine, because you know he's going to growl and grunt something out in that thick accent of his, and you're going to come all over him.
It's a fuckin' wonder how he doesn't run out of air in those lungs, from how much he smokes, the air in the city, all that smog. It's a wonder how he's got the energy to go on and on the way he does, when he's got your naked body bent over the fuckin' coffee table in the living room, balls slapping against your ass.
"Goddamn honey you take my cock so fuckin' well, look at that pretty pussy swallowin' me whole, you were made for me, just for me, you're the best fuckin' girl I've ever had swear to god on that."
"I'd do anything for you, for this tight cunt, I'll kill for you baby girl, I'll come so deep inside you that you'll taste me on your fuckin' tongue. You want that?"
"You like that? Like my big cock? You like the way I fuck you? Goddamn you're pretty baby, I love the way you cry for me, be a good girl and take my cock just how you want. It's all yours you perfect fuckin' slut yeah that's it, that's it right there -- "
It makes you come so hard every time, the seedy way he growls. When he eats you out and he moans, the vibrations of his baritone make your eyes roll back into your head, your bones and nerves alive, electric.
Sometimes you keep your hand on his head and hold him down there so he can make out with your pussy and you can get the toe-curling sensation of his inner monologue spilling between your thighs.
Other times you insist on sitting in his lap so that he can lick and suck and bite at your earlobe, murmuring and moaning against your neck.
And other times still, it's enough to hear the hot crackle his moans over the phone lines, when he's got to work too late down at the theater or the restaurant, and he can only get away long enough to jerk off in his office.
Some other girls might have told him to clean his language up a little -- you try not to think of his wife -- but not you.
No, you like him just the way he is, and you hope, whenever he bitches and complains and moans and groans, that he never changes.
---------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------
Taggin' some Pale loving friends!

FOWL Facets- Chapter 4
Summary: While Loony remembers Liquidator’s time on the team fondly, Domino’s memories of the canine are far from pleasant...
Notes: More backstory in this one with a side of Domino and Gandra being snarky with each other x3
-First Chapter-
“We went on a bunch more missions together after that.” Loony finishes her story with a bright smile. “Liqui always had to go back to Blue Diamond afterwards, but anytime Dommy and Steely called him, he was happy to come play with us!”
“Then what happened?” Gandra asks from her spot on the floor across from Loony. “If you were all such good friends, then why’d he stop tagging along on missions and leave the crew?”
Loony’s smile falls, turning into a slight frown. “I….don’t know.” She looks away, chin propped against her crossed arms where they rest on her raised knees. “We went on a couple of missions after he was done fighting in the gem war for Blue Diamond…but..he was different..”
“Different?” Gandra asks with a tilt of her head. “How?”
“He said he met someone on Earth. He was always in a rush to get back to homeworld after we were done- he didn’t want to hang out and play with us like he used to…” Loony’s frown deepens the more she speaks. “Then, one day, I went out to get supplies after a mission…when I got back, Liqui was gone, Steely looked different, and Dommy & Steely said Liqui wasn’t coming back again…” She wraps her arms around herself a few times. “They said they were okay with it, but I felt bad things from them for a while after he left…”
Before Gandra has the chance to ask for any more information, the door opens and Domino walks into the room. “We’re on course, but there’s still some time left before we reach the mile marker.” He looks between the two other gems and notices Loony’s posture and the expression on her face. “……” He walks over and kneels down next to her. “How about you take the next break, Loony? You can go sit in the control room, if you want- we’re over the ocean right now and the sun is setting, so the view is nice.”
Loony’s mood brightens instantly as she looks at Domino with an excited smile. “Really?”
He nods with a fond smile of his own. “Just don’t touch the controls- the autopilot’s already been set in the right direction. Come get us when it says we’ve reached 500 miles.”
“Okie dokie!” She jumps up and over him, stretching herself to the door and out of the room. “Thanks, Dommy!”
Once the door closes behind her, Domino summons a small oval-shaped white barrier on the ground below him and sits on it- the barrier having quite a bit of elasticity to it, letting it act as a cushion. “Depression doesn’t suit Loony at all.” He looks over to Gandra as she adjusts her legs to be more comfortable as well. “What were you two talking about?”
“Liquidator.” Gandra’s answer is straightforward, as expected of the star-sapphire. “I wanted to know what we were up against.” She glances at the door Loony left through a moment ago. “I didn’t know he was an old friend of y-”
“We weren’t friends.” Domino cuts her off before she can continue. “Loony may have seen him as a friend, but he was merely a coworker- and barely that.” He tries to sound calm and clinical, but the hardened look in his eyes and the way his hands clench from their crossed position in his lap doesn’t go unnoticed by his crew-member.
“Oh yeah?” Gandra gives him a skeptical look. “From what Loony told me, it sounds like you and Steelbeak liked having this Liquidator guy around as much as she did and now you’re bitter that he left all of you behind.”
“We are not ‘bitter’, we were just…inconvenienced.” Domino’s voice remains unchanged, but he doesn’t make eye contact with Gandra. “He was a useful tool to bring with us on missions to planets with large bodies of water- not having him around made certain jobs a bit more challenging.”
Gandra’s skeptical look doesn’t go away- if anything it turns a bit cocky with the smirk on her beak. “Really? That door down the hall tells a different story.”
He gives the star-sapphire an annoyed frown coupled with a mildly irritated glare. “I thought you were a star-sapphire, not a padparadscha.”
“I don’t need to see the past to understand the present.” She only smirks more from his glare, that look serving as all the proof she needs to know she’s right. “You guys gave him a room on the ship, and you don’t just GIVE those away.” She gestures towards herself as she speaks. “You didn’t bother giving ME a room until I’d been on the crew for at least two thousand years, so he must have been with you guys for a while.” She nods in the direction Loony left in. “Plus Loony said she felt ‘bad things’ from you two after he left.”
“Loony was just worrying too much.” Domino glances in the same direction. “As I said, we were inconvenienced and irritated, that’s it.”
“Alright, then why didn’t you just get rid of him?” She counters. “You two aren’t exactly known for your mercy and generosity. Just letting a gem that ‘irritated’ you walk away without a scratch- especially one that could be considered a potential threat to F.O.W.L.- is out of character for you AND Steelbeak.”
“Liquidator is an elite gem with a high-standing on homeworld- his disappearance would be hard to cover up.” Domino’s argument sounds logical enough, but the star-sapphire’s expression never falters.
“You two have done cover-ups before. Would he really be that different from the other elite gems you’ve made ‘disappear’?” She arches a brow at him with a smirk.
“He is stronger than most elites.” Domino tries to stand his ground, despite knowing that he’s losing this argument already.
“Too strong for you two to handle?” Gandra questions with mock-surprise. “Or do you just not want to fight him?”
“We haven’t had a REASON to fight him before.” Domino adjusts his legs, looking for something to stare at besides the cocky engineer across from him. “I already told you, his leaving was an inconvenience and an irritation- we had no reason to hold a grudge against him for his decision, so why bother?”
“Then what happened to the door?” Gandra grins confidently at the snowflake obsidian. “Because THAT looks like someone holding a grudge, to me.”
“Steelbeak lost his temper, nothing new.” He tries to wave off her argument, but she doesn’t budge.
“Funny. Last I checked, Steelbeak doesn’t use incendiary ammo.” She gives his gem, where he would normally draw his pistols, a poignant stare.
“……” Domino’s scowl slowly turns into a frown as he looks down at his empty hands, his fingers flexing as if they itched to hold his familiar weapons. Or maybe it was his light-construct body remembering the feeling of holding them…and how he’d hesitated four thousand years ago…
“OUT?” Steelbeak’s voice was incredulous as he stared at Liquidator, beak agape in disbelief. “Whattaya mean you want OUT?!”
Liquidator leaned against the wall of his room with a frustrated frown on his face. “I mean exactly what I said: I want out of the crew.”
Domino was calmer about the whole ordeal than his partner was, though he didn’t look any less put out by it. Before he could raise his voice again, the snowflake obsidian raised a hand to silence him. The melanite crossed his arms and glared at Liquidator, but did as his partner silently asked of him.
“This is about that sapphire you met, isn’t it?” Domino watched as the lapis lazuli’s expression softened at the mere mention of the odd little gem he’d met on Earth. “What happened this time?”
“……” Liquidator’s frown gradually changed from frustration to regret. “Some garnets tried to start a fight with him while I was gone..Megavolt scared them off, but he’s not enough…” He sighed, his frown only deepening. “I have to stay with him..I promised I’d look after him- he’s MY responsibility…”
“Oh, so you’re just gonna leave us high an’ dry ‘cause of some pretty little blue-eyed Earth rock?” Steelbeak had no trace of sympathy in his voice for the watery gem. He crossed the room over to Liquidator, looking down at him threateningly. “You ain’t walkin’ out on us that easy- not after all we did for you, not after all we’ve SEEN you do. Or don’t ya remember why you started taggin’ along with us in the first place?”
“He does have a point.” Domino moved to his partner’s side to talk with Liquidator, standing closer to eye-level with the canine. “What are you going to do if you leave? You joined us because you needed an outlet for your aggression- do you think that’s just going to go away on its own? What if you get built up again? Or worse: What if you let that side out in front of HIM?”
“……” Liquidator looked at the ground, his walls starting to come down as they always did when the pair of bird-gems preyed on his weaknesses.
“Dom’s right, Liq.” Steelbeak’s voice lacked its earlier aggression, trying to come across as sympathetic. “We’ve seen what happens when ya lose control. Do ya REALLY wanna snap like that in front of your sweet little sapphire? What if he got hurt? You know how you get after a few centuries dealin’ with Blue Diamond’s court..”
“……” Liquidator deflated more at the melanite’s words, his posture losing all traces of its previous defensiveness. “I know..but…he NEEDS me…”
His defenses were broken, they could see it in his eyes. After a couple thousand years of the same routine, they knew how to pick Liquidator apart. They knew what buttons to push and when to go in for the kill.
“ ‘Ey, we need ya too, Liq’s.” Steelbeak put an arm around the blue gem’s wet shoulders in a friendly gesture, giving him a reassuring smile. “You’re part of our crew, so we look out for each other. We wouldn’t want anything happenin’ to our friend, right?”
Ah, the classic routine: Remind him of his troubles and insecurities, drive the point home about how he needs them, then act sympathetic and friendly to take advantage of his loneliness. It worked like a charm every-
“ ‘FRIEND’?” Liquidator repeated the word back, a growl working its way into his voice. “You expect me to believe that we’re FRIENDS?”
Wait, he was starting to stand up straighter again. He was…was glaring at them? That wasn’t his usual reaction- he was supposed to cave in and do what they wanted like he always did! Where was this coming from?!
“Wha-?” Steelbeak looked down at the lapis lazuli in surprise when a chill went through the arm that was still around the aquatic gem’s shoulders. “O-Of course we’re friends, right, Deedee?”
“Right.” Domino nodded in agreement, though he kept a cautious eye on the other gem and his odd new behavior. “We’ve helped you out countless times since you joined us-”
“Oh, is THAT what you’re calling it now?” Liquidator growled, forcefully removing Steelbeak’s arm from his shoulders while glaring at Domino. “You call manipulating me helpful? You call using me helpful?” He subconsciously called the water from the pool over to him, the liquid adding to the size of his body to make him taller and more imposing- allowing him to look down on not only Domino, but Steelbeak as well. “Friends don’t use each other’s mental problems against them! Friends don’t think of you as a tool to make their jobs easier! Friends don’t LIE TO YOUR FACE!”
“Woah, woah, bud, calm down!” Steelbeak held his hands up in a placating gesture, trying to defuse the situation. “We ain’t-”
“Oh, save your lies for someone who will listen, because I am DONE!” Liquidator cut the melanite off, not allowing a single excuse to get past his beak. “You two must really think I’m stupid, huh? You think I didn’t figure out what scam you were selling me on? Well, guess what, I’m not as uninformed of a customer as you think because I KNOW.” He continued to loom over them threateningly, both in height and now in mass as he fully incorporated the water from the pool into his usual form. “The only thing you’ve ever cared about when it comes to me is my strength- you never once cared about ME!”
“That’s not true!” Domino frowned up at the now-taller gem, looking him in the eyes with what he hoped was a believable amount of sincerity. “We’ve only ever had your best interests in mind. What will it take to make you believe us?”
“Oh, so we’re bartering now, are we?” The extra liquid left the lapis lazuli’s body and returned to its proper place in the pool. He folded his arms over his chest, his posture less threatening now but his walls were back up and reinforced stronger than ever. Seriously, where was this newfound confidence and aggression even COMING from? “Alright, I’m a reasonable businessman, so let’s see if we can strike a deal.” He tapped his chin in thought, but the gesture was clearly just for show. “Oh, I know!” He even snapped his fingers to pretend the idea had suddenly come to him. “Just let me bring him along and there won’t be any problems.”
“You got sediment in your stone?!” Steelbeak’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Takin’ YOU along is already breakin’ protocol! We can’t-!” A white barrier appeared around the taller bird’s metallic beak, muffling his words.
“What he’s trying to say,” Domino ignored the side-eyed glare he got from his partner, dismissing the barrier once he was sure the other bird wouldn’t say anything else. “Is that we’re already risking a lot by bringing you with us. If High Command found out, we could at least justify bringing someone of your status and strength on missions. We can’t justify bringing a non-combative gem with us.”
“Funny, I didn’t think SPINELS were combative gems.” Liquidator’s glare from earlier returned.
Domino returned the look in kind, barely restraining himself from striking the other gem for his words. “Loony can fight and defend herself…unlike that sapphire of yours.”
“He’s still developing.” Liquidator growled. “He’s barely been out of the dirt for two centuries, he can get stronger- he can LEARN to fight.” He took a deep breath, trying to regain his earlier façade. “But..that sort of thing can take time. So, how about this limited-time offer: Give me a couple thousand years to train him and see if he can become a fighter. If he can, then he can come along, right?”
“So, what, we’re just supposed t’ leave you alone while you TRY t’ teach some puny sapphire to fight?” Steelbeak scoffed.
“I didn’t say you had to leave me alone.” Liquidator eyed the taller gem, anger still clear in his eyes despite his amicable tone. “After all, if we really ARE friends, then you’d still want to see me, even if it wasn’t for missions, right?”
“That’s unreasonable, and you know it.” Domino huffed, easily seeing through the blue gem’s baiting. “You know how much time we spend away from homeworld for traveling and assignments.”
“Then I guess we’ve reached an impasse.” Liquidator easily slipped between the darker gems and headed for the door. “Until I can bring my sapphire with me or he’s strong enough to look after himself, this is goodbye.”
“Hmph, that sapphire’s made ya soft, drippy.” Steelbeak rolled his eyes at the dog’s retreating figure. “Might be best for everyone if he ‘disappeared’…”
That last line was nothing more than a mumble. A thought that found its way to the melanite’s mouth before he had time to filter it. At most, it was an annoyed, off-handed comment meant only for his partner’s acknowledgement and nothing more.
But it was just loud enough that the lapis lazuli heard it.
He’d had his hand on the panel for the door, his exit already opened, when his ears perked up at the other gem’s words. “……” He was back on the other side of the room before any of them had even had time to blink, his arm extended as he picked the taller bird up off of the floor with ease. “Don’t you dare go ANYWHERE near my sapphire!”
“!!” Steelbeak tried to regain his footing, but chains of water rose out of the pool to restrain his hands and prevent any movement from them. He was pinned with no way to fight back- unable to grab his guns or even summon a platform to stand on.
“Steelbeak!” Domino summoned one of his pistols from his own gem and pointed it at Liquidator without hesitation. “Drop him now or I’ll-!”
“You won’t do anything.” Liquidator’s free arm warped into a deadly-sharp icicle that he pressed right against Steelbeak’s gemstone. “You won’t put your partner’s life on the line like that.” He turned his head, looking the snowflake obsidian over with a smirk that spoke of both the confidence and certainty he had in his words, as well as the dark, murderous intent he held within him in that moment. “After all, you wouldn’t want to lose another one, would you?”
“?!!” Domino’s red eyes widened and he froze in place at those words. “How..How did you-?!”
“I’ve been in your room before, remember? I’ve seen the pictures.” The liquid-bodied gem’s words were cold, full of bitterness and resentment that had undoubtedly been stewing within him for countless centuries. “All of these years you two spent learning how to manipulate me, did you really think I wouldn’t learn how to do the same to you?” His earlier glare returned as he redirected his attention back up towards Steelbeak, though he was clearly speaking to both of them. “I know how to pick you apart. I know what buttons to push to BREAK YOU.” He scratched the melanite’s stone with the tip of his frozen arm, his glare only growing more intense alongside the growl that steadily laced itself further into his voice. “I’ve spent my whole life doing what I’m told, going along with what everyone else expects from me…I thought you two were different…I thought you would understand me…but you’re just like Blue Diamond and all the other elites: You only want me around as long as I play the role you want to see and jump at your command. Now I’ve finally got a chance to be happy with someone who actually cares about me for who I am instead of what I can do for him, and I’m taking it.” He roughly dropped Steelbeak to the ground, but did not release his hands just yet. “Maybe you’re right..maybe I AM making a mistake by walking away from the best source of ‘stress relief’ I’ve had in ages…but, even if it’s the wrong one, it’s still my choice to make. I’m tired of being angry all the time…I want to try being happy for a change…” He turned his back on the melanite and snowflake obsidian. “Oh, and just in case you had any doubts about me being SERIOUS…”
Without even looking back at the pair, he gave a snap of his fingers and the watery chains wrapped around Steelbeak’s hands suddenly rumbled and burst with slender but sharp icicles that pierced his body in multiple locations.
“Friggin’ stars-!” Steelbeak swore with a hiss of pain right before his body disappeared with a poof, leaving behind nothing but his gemstone which was quickly becoming cold and frozen from the icicles still trying to pierce it.
“STEELBEAK!” Domino rushed over to his fallen partner’s stone and picked it up, a thick white barrier appearing around his hand like a glove to protect it from the sharpened ice. He held the black stone close to himself while turning to point his gun at the retreating gem’s back, instinctively trying to protect the melanite from further damage.
Liquidator showed no signs of fear at all in either his voice or his body language as he turned his head just enough to glance back at the loon over his shoulder. “That was a warning. Come anywhere near me or my sapphire and next time I will break him…and I’ll make you watch the whole thing.” And, with that, he finally walked out of the room.
If looks could kill, then the heated glare Domino gave Liquidator would have shattered him instantly. He held his partner’s gem tighter, his other hand still poised to shoot at the lapis lazuli. His finger rested on the trigger, the barrel of the gun glowing a subtle, light blue color. He had a clear shot…
……
…but he didn’t take it…
“Darn it…” With a frustrated scowl on his face, he pointed the gun off to the side and fired the loaded bullet at the small pool, instantly freezing the entire body of water with one shot.
He stood in place for a while, listening to the far off sounds of the exit hatch opening and closing. Once he was completely alone in the ship, the snowflake obsidian walked out into the hall, closing the door behind himself. He sat down on the floor outside of the room, making a small, round barrier-cushion to set Steelbeak’s gem on, but not bothering to make one for himself. The barrel of his gun turned orange and he used a small, controlled burst of fire from it to melt the frost off of the melanite beside him.
Aware of how much his partner hated to be kept waiting, Steelbeak was quick to regain his physical form. Only a few more minutes after thawing out the stone, Domino watched as the ball-cut gem rose up into the air. The stone glowed with a black aura around it that slowly spread out into the rooster’s familiar outline. After settling and making a few minor adjustments, the black light settled and Steelbeak stood beside Domino with sharper features, a longer and more jagged beak, and a darker bowtie then what he’d worn previously.
“That ungrateful CLOD!” Unsurprisingly, Steelbeak’s first act after reforming his body was to lash out in anger and punch the wall beside him. He began to pace up and down the hall in front of Domino, his hands moving as he vented his frustrations. “After everything we’ve done for that stupid drip-brain, he decides to just..just DITCH US for some dirt-covered, off-color sapphire?! Who does he think he is?!”
“……” Domino didn’t say a word, he simply got to his feet and walked down the hall so that he was standing in front of the door to the blue gem’s room instead of beside it.
“More than two thousand years we gave that ingrate a way to blow off some steam!” Unaware of his partner’s change in position, Steelbeak continued his pacing, throwing his hands up in the air or clenching them into fists now and then as he vented his frustrations. “We gave him a ROOM! We gave him a spot on the CREW! What more does he WANT?!” Finding himself back in front of the lapis lazuli’s door, he glares at the emblem on it and gives the offending door a kick. “If I see that loser again, I’m gonna-!”
“Move.” The one word command startled Steelbeak out of his rant, making him turn to see Domino standing behind him with his pistol pointed straight ahead.
“Woah!” He got out of the way just in time, narrowly avoiding the powerful burst of flames from the snowflake obsidian’s gun. “Geez, Dom- give a guy a warnin’ next time!”
“I did.” Instead of looking at his partner, Domino brought out his other gun and both barrels turned black. He aimed the pistols at the door and opened fire on it with regular, solid bullets that pierced it and left several holes in the rock.
Steelbeak took a moment to merely stand there and watch his partner glare at and vandalize the door with the now-charred but still-visible lapis lazuli emblem. He saw something in those red eyes- something he knew and understood far too well after working with the other gem for more than three thousand years.
When Domino had to pause for a moment to change the type of ammo in his guns, he felt something tap him on the shoulder. Looking to the source, he saw his partner standing beside him with a knowing grin. The object that had touched him was the butt of the melanite’s tommy-gun, which Steelbeak held out to him in offering. “Think this’ll be a bit more satisfyin’ for ya, short fuse.”
Domino was caught momentarily off guard by the offer, but he soon recovered and took the machine gun with a brief but meaningful look into the other gem’s dark eyes. “You may have a point.”
It was bigger than the weaponry he was used to, but it wasn’t the first time he’d been allowed to shoot the larger bird’s gun. He easily compensated for the weight and kickback before opening fire on the door in a much more devastating- and satisfying- way than before.
He wasn’t alone in his destructive vandalism, either- Steelbeak summoned his own long-barreled pistol and joined him in putting as many holes in the offending rectangle as possible. They spent several hours soothing themselves with the senseless violence and destruction. Sometimes they would shoot together, sometimes they would take turns and make a game out of it. They would change tactics and use every weapon they had at their disposal, even tossing a bomb into the room itself for a controlled explosion. At one point Steelbeak even used his namesake to take bites out of the material, leaving several deep gouges in it.
By the time they were done, the pair of gems were exhausted but sated.
As they sat next to each other on the floor facing the ruined door, Steelbeak with one leg raised to prop his arm up on his knee while the other lay straight out in front of him and Domino to his left sitting with both legs out in front of him, the melanite finally spoke for the first time since they’d started.
“We made a rookie mistake.” He didn’t need to look at the other gem to know his partner was listening. “Got too close t’ the help- got too attached.” He closed his eyes for a moment, letting an annoyed sigh cross his beak. “That ain’t gonna happen again.” Opening his eyes once more, his dark gaze landed right on the desecrated emblem- only slivers of its once vibrant blue color visible between the holes and soot. “You, me, and Loony- from now on, those are the only gems on this ship that matter. Anyone else wants a ride, they’re disposable.” His left arm shifted from its previous spot on his lap, moving to lie between the two of them instead with his palm face-up.
Domino still didn’t look at the melanite. He didn’t need to. He could tell what expression the taller gem had on his face, just like he could tell that the other’s hand was now right next to him. “Agreed.” He closed his eyes, his own hand moving down next to the lighter-feathered one on the floor. “The three of us are more than enough.”
Domino is pulled from his reminiscing when the door to the room opens, Loony stretching over to him before the door is even half-way open. “The computer beeped, Dommy!”
“Thanks, Loony.” He rises to his feet, ignoring the curious look he receives from Gandra. Walking over to a panel on the wall, he dims the lights once again and gets into position in front of their prisoner. He closes his eyes, takes a deep breath to calm himself, then opens his eyes again- his gaze as hardened as it was the first time they interrogated the impostor. “Wake him up.”
<-Previous Chapter Next Chapter->
End Notes: Sooo..the relationship between Liquidator and Domino & Steelbeak is a bit...complicated, to say the least. While they did end up seeing each other as friends by the time Liquidator left, it wasn’t exactly a healthy friendship:
Like Domino said, he and Steelbeak were essentially using Liquidator as a way to make their missions easier- he was a tool. They recognized that he was unhappy with his role in the Diamonds’ hierarchy and that he had a lot of deep-seated mental and emotional issues that they could exploit by “letting him” unleash take out his frustrations on whatever planet they were sent to conquer. They also capitalized on the feelings of isolation that came from his superior title by offering him companionship that he was VERY desperate to receive.
Like Liquidator said, though, he wasn’t an idiot- he knew logically that he was being used and he was using them in return as a way to release his pent up frustrations, but, deep down, a part of him really did want to believe that they also enjoyed his company and that they could still be friends. By the time the war ended, though, he’d not only met Bushroot, he’d also started developing a closer friendship with Megavolt and it gave him a clearer picture of what real friendship is like versus what he was getting from Steelbeak and Domino.
Domino and Steelbeak DID end up liking him enough to want to keep him around, and Liquidator didn’t mind coming with them for missions since it was great stress-relief, but a relationship built on a foundation of manipulation and lies is bound to crumble eventually.

“Oh! Come to think of it, I haven’t really talked about good ol’ Kazuichi before, have I?
Now, I want y’all to understand I’m not talkin’ about any particular one on here, n’ just the one I knew on the island. Granted, one of the ones on here could be the one I knew, but I don’t know that for sure. So... Just gettin’ that out of the way so if any pink-haired mechanics hear things they don’t remember, it’s not because I’m lyin’. That’s also why I ain’t taggin’ any one in particular.
Okay, with that out of the way—
I’d actually be comfortable sayin’ he was my best friend when it came to everybody on the island.
He was easy to get along with. I know I was younger and stupider at that point in my life, but it was nice havin’ another guy around who didn’t act like it was a completely foreign concept to be attracted to the classmates who were, well...! Attractive! Maybe he didn’t have the same zeal for all of them like I did, but still! Even with his ragin’ hard on for crush on Sonia, he could still appreciate certain physical features the others had to offer.
Not to mention he was one of the only ones who also seemed like he woulda been happy had the island turned out to be the tropical field trip we was promised ‘stead of the nightmare it wound up bein’. Already felt generally pretty awful for knowin’ I’d been excited at one point, because of course it was too good to be true and the hell kind of school does extravagant trips like that at all much less first thing, but... Y’all gotta keep in mind I ain’t done that much travellin’ even now, much less back then. Vacations were almost unheard of, never mind to someplace special.”
“I, um... Eh heh heh. I don’t know how to phrase this to where it don’t sound like an insult or weird, but I swear it isn’t. It was nice that he was so openly afraid. Because I was too and there were a lot of people who kept on their brave faces like it was nothing, or took charge and seemed like they knew what they were doin’ and— and if my talent didn’t make my usefulness so obvious at all times, I don’t know that I would’ve been able to bring myself to so much as leave my cottage. It was easy to tell Kazuichi was scared too and I wound up gettin’ to talk with him about it, gettin’ to feel a lil’ better and helpin’ him do the same. Or at least tryin’ to. Only so much you can do for someone when they’re somewhere they don’t wanna be and you got no sway over where they stay. Still. I tried. He did too.
...There were times when we’d talk a long, long time, way into the time we shoulda been sleepin’ just to try n’ feel a bit of comfort or to focus on somethin’ else a while. Kazuichi always was real bad about gettin’ restless whenever he had to just be there in the dark alone, and I was bad about gettin’ paranoid thinkin’ I heard noises or saw somebody in my room when I was alone, sooo...
Anyway. It’s just— there’s— hm... It’s a completely different experience, trapped somewhere unfamiliar with all unfamiliar faces, without much insight to work with besides the fact that most of y’all are gonna wind up dead so, so soon and it’ll be because one of those unfamiliar faces wants you dead or thinks you’ll go quick n’ be an easy target or...
...Real wreck of a man, hair cut haphazardly n’ dyed pink, dressed all in yellow you could see from miles off, sharp-toothed grin that by some miracle couldn’t pull off lookin’ menacing, so easy to tease over the most obvious crush y’ever did witness, not even moody when you do tease him over it���because damn did you tease him over it, took apart n’ reassembled his alarm clock least three times just to keep his hands n’ mind busy, wanted to build a rocket ship of all things one day because why not somethin’ over the top—
I couldn’t be afraid of him. Didn’t want to be. Glad to know now that it would’ve been wasted worry if I had been. Glad he didn’t wind up doin’ somethin’ he’d regret for the rest of his life. Glad he got to have a rest of his life.
That’s what I think.”
#asks#anon#death cw#just in case?#i cant not be happy he survived#say what you want but he deserved a better shot at life then and still does now#hope hes got it too

11/11/11 Tag Game
I was actually tagged twice for this one, so it’s actually 22 instead of 11! Thanks to @marlettwrites and @inexorableblob for the tags, and apologies for the lateness of answering! I have quite the backlog of tag games. ^^’
Rules: Answer eleven questions, tag eleven people, and ask eleven questions!
1. What book has most inspired you to write? (could also be a tv show, podcast, song, whatever!)
Oooooffff, I need to get back into reading real books. Honestly? I know The Edge Chronicles by Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell was one of the inspirations from my childhood, but there are likely so many more that I’m not remembering.
2. What do you like to listen to while you write?
The range of genres of music I listen to is astounding and often completely random! If not, the music typically matches the atmosphere or mood of the scene I would currently be writing.
3. Favorite genre to read and/or write?
I love me some good ole fantasy. Right now I’m writing a historical fantasy, which is something I never thought I would do, but it’s been a whole lotta fun! I also really like writing and reading sci-fi! (I may or may not have another wip idea in the works that’s sci-fi HELP)
4. What are five aesthetic things for your WIP? (sounds, smells, feelings, colors, whatever floats your boat)
can I answer “the ocean” here or is that not allowed?
The smell of the sea, the smoothness of fish scales, the prickling of static electricity, the salty tang of blood, and creaking timbers of a storm tossed ship.
5. How did you come up with the idea for your WIP?
One Siren’s Soul was originally just a pirate au I shoved a bunch of previously created original characters into. And then the characters started changing to match the story and an actual plot started forming and it got out of hand. -u-
6. What initially inspired the creation of your MC(s)?
Ah. This is. Um. I’m a nerd. They’re all originally gemsonas. Steven Universe. Whoops. (Any guesses as to what their gemstones originally were? Celestine doesn’t count.) I basically was inspired by the metaphysical meanings attributed to each individual stone when creating their personalities and designs. Just to be clear, though, their characters have shifted dramatically from what they used to be.
7. Do any of your characters have pets? If so, what are they?
None of the characters have a pet at the start of the novel, but that ain’t gonna stay that way.
8. Are there any tropes that you absolutely despise?
Hmmm. Hm. I don’t really have any specific ones, but often negative stereotypes based solely on culture are big tropes I tend to really dislike. Sure, the people you’re depicting definitely do exist, but is it really necessary to portray a culture as being the exact same negative traits so many times? The detrimental effects of this are terrible, but that’s a rant for another day.
9. What are the main themes of your WIP?
... I’m never really the best with these. ^^’ Let’s see... I mean, there’s your classic enemies to lovers, tons of betterment of self stuff and adapting to and understanding one’s own flaws, lotta communication themes, family, change vs. tradition, a big chunk of power and corruption... Yeah. I guess. I need to get better at this.
10. What motivates your antagonist (or if it’s man vs nature, how did your protag get stuck in their sticky sitch)?
NyehehheehHEHEHEHEHHHEEEE oohhhhh isn’t this such an interesting, spoiler inducing question. First off, who exactly is my antagonist? Captain Io? Rose? Dione? The Scientist? Clearly it’s Colin. Has to be.
So what motivates this so-called antagonist? He wishes he could make friends with everyone and obviously it’s because Celestine refuses to be friends with anyone.
(Okay but jokes aside this is a major discovery in the book, so I can’t quite reveal that yet. ^^’)
Context-less spoilers: Someone’s really not impressed with their sibling, and someone else wants someone because they’re a meanie jerk.
11. If your MC were to buy ice cream, what flavor would they get? (I had to finish it off with a fun one)
This is a cute question! If any of my MCs actually knew what ice cream was: Celestine would get the sweetest thing offered, like cotton candy or bubblegum, because she’s a gigantic sweet tooth; Colin likes your classic puppy paws; Dione is boring and would get something like French vanilla or strawberry; and Phoenix loves chocolate way too much.
Round two!
1. Would you rather adapt your WIP to TV/streaming or Film/Movie?
In personal experience, I’ve typically preferred movie adaptations to TV series ones. Plus, the story is very dependent on specific plot points that need to follow very closely consecutively, and I feel splitting that up into individual episodes would really chop up the flow.
2. Who would Sean Bean play in your WIP?
Uuuhhhhhhhhhh I have no clue mate. The closest character appearance wise to him would be George?
3. What in the real world besides books/media has inspired your WIP?
The ocean. I am a maritimer from birth and shall always be! Also my family took a two week road trip across Newfoundland one Summer and it was so fun and so pretty and I loved it so much I put the setting of One Siren’s Soul there. So yeah!
4. What authors do you avoid?
To be completely honest, I haven’t been reading much lately! But I’m sorry, I never did really like Veronica Roth’s Divergent. So... maybe her?
5. If you had to hide a secret message in your WIP, how would you hide it?
Heh. Who’s to say there isn’t? In the chapter titles and how they correspond to the text? NYEEHEHHE
6. Would you rather have an OC of yours make you breakfast in bed or do your laundry?
... Breakfast in bed. Slight spoiler: Phoenix is an utterly amazing cook.
7. Do you learn better from experience or instruction?
I really do appreciate instruction but for me it’s typically experience! Either that or learning by example. By example is often the best way for me.
8. What is the grossest thing you have ever seen/smelled/tasted/touch/heard about?
Ever taste dandelion blood? I was a dumb child.
9. Wallpaper or paint?
My mate, wallpaper is so pretty if you’re going for the fancy older house aesthetic, but it’s super expensive and inefficient. You can do just as well with paint and pictures/furniture pieces.
10. What would the Devil try to tempt you with? Money? Power? Love? Boots?
More hats for my collection.
11. If you attended your own funeral, what would offend you most, People not showing up, or people faking emotions, or something else?
I think it would be people only being there to take advantage of others somehow? Like... money or... yeah I got nothing. I would prefer a celebration of life to a funeral, though.
What a last question for that one! XD Here’s my own eleven questions for some other people!
1. What flowers would be used in a flower crown for your MCs?
2. What kind of scenes are your favourite to write?
3. What three words would you use to describe your wip(s)?
4. Which of your OCs is most similar to you? Least similar?
5. Are you a plant or animal person? What’s either your favourite plant or animal?
6. What would be your favourite classic AU for your wip(s)?
7. If you had to choose one song to be your own theme song, what would it be?
8. What was your very first wip?
9. Who is the most patient of your OCs? The least?
10. What would be the pet each of your MCs would get if they had the option to get anything?
11. How would you describe your writing style?
Taggin’ taggin’ time (I’m a rebel and won’t tag 11 ‘cause I don’t know that many people yet ^^’): @imaghostwriter @alinakerrin @bookish-actor @scottishhellhound
Have fun if you want to do it!

I be taggin’
I was tagged by @katrinnac Rules are: Answer all the questions, and add one question of your own at the end, then tag as many people as there are questions.
1. Coke or Pepsi? Diet Pepsi 2. Disney or Dreamworks? Disney (probably) 3. Coffee or tea? Coffee, but sometimes tea 4. Books or movies? Books. 5. Windows or Mac? Windows. 6. DC or Marvel? Whichever my 19-year old son says. 7. Xbox or Playstation? If I can't do it on my phone or ipad, it ain't happening 8. Dragon Age or Mass Effect? I am as old as a dragon, and this has had a mass effect on my outlook on life. Now get off my lawn. 9. Night owl or early riser? These do not compute. I am a teacher with children. I have not slept since 1985. 10. Cards or chess? Is there an app? 11. Chocolate or vanilla? Which one will help me take down Trump? 12. Vans or Converse? New Balance when I can buy someplace other than a snooty NB store. 13. Lavellan, Trevelyan, Cadash, or Adaar? Let me guess, Pokemon? 14. Paragon or Renegade? Are these Styx tunes? 15. Star Wars or Star Trek? Star Wars 16. One episode per week or binge watch? Both. 17. Gandalf or Obi-Wan? Which one is going to fix my bad back? 18. Heroes or villains? Probably. 19. John Williams or Hans Zimmer? I like them both, but I'm more of a Zimmer guy. 20. Disneyland/World or Six Flags? If I could avoid them both, I could get some rest. 21. Forest or sea? Sea probably. I have neither, but I dig water (as long as I don't have to get in it). 22. Flying or reading minds? Reading minds. I'm as far off the ground as I ever want to be. 23. Twin Peaks or Northern Exposure? Which one serves the better burger? 24. Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings? Lord of the Rings 25. You’re banished to a deserted island, which Benedict Cumberbatch characters would you choose to take with you? Not as familiar with his oeuvre, I want to say Sherlock, but that would get on my nerves pretty quick. 26. Train or cruise ship? Train probably. Ask me tomorrow. 27. Brian Cox or Neil deGrasse Tyson? Ugh. Don't know much about the Cox guy, but I really don't like NdT (I know: I'm one of only 3 people). Can't I just talk to the taco vendor? 28. Art museum or science museum? Art. 29. Irish pub or night club? I don't go out much (see question 9), but I'm more of a sitting around drinking with friends guy than having my skull pierced by music I don't understand or like. So, I'm going to say movies. 30. Aang or Korra? Oh. I know this one. Yogurt flavors? 31. Swimming in a pool or lake? Pool, because heated. And less critters trying to eat me. 32. Classic music or classic literature? Literature, then music, then music while reading. 33. Oxford comma or no oxford comma? I am pretty sure that people who don't like the Oxford comma are the ones who helped the Russians elect Trump. Just sayin'. 34. Digital or paper books? Digital usually, but I am very proud of my poetry shelf. 35. Rainy days or Sunny days? Sunny. Rain is for plants. 36. Fantasy or Science Fiction? These aren't the same thing? (Kidding, don't hit me.) 37: Poetry or Prose? Both, but Poetry is the right answer. 38: Spend the day at a beach or park? I can get a park any day. I would love a few days on a beach. 39. Spiders(lots and lots) crawling on your body or being stuck in a cage with a lion? Easy. Lion. Wait, I don't have to wear a meat suit, do I? 40. If you had one day left to live, what would you do? Eat some tacos. Kiss my wife. Hug my kids and grandkids. Maybe write a poem. My question: 41. Do you prefer to come up with clever excuses for mistakes, or hide from those who are upset at you?
I tag
@wordrummager, @incexual, @smakka--bagms, @pomegranatepithos
And the rest of you.

Taggin time folks
So it makes me super happy that @pineapplepond5 remembered I exist after months of inactivity and tagged me in a thing and I just wanna say thanks? That gave me such a warm fuzzy, I’m gonna do it.
Relationship Status: Single, but not without options, if you know what I mean…
Lipstick or Chapstick: Both? I use chapstick more bc ain’t nobody got time fo dat, but I also use it right before I put on lipstick so????
Last song I listened to: My YouTube history says “You Spin Me Round” by Dead or Alive. The music tape my baby brother’s watching says “Peace Like a River” by Cedarmont Kids. Take what you will from that.
Last movie I watched: I watched part of The Lego Movie with my younger siblings last night. The last full movie I watched was Tangled, also with the sibs. I’ll have more interesting answers once I get back to college 😂
Top 3 Shows: I don’t watch a lot of TV/Netflix but here goes nothin:
1. Gilmore Girls
2. Mythbusters (it counts right?)
3. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Top 3 Characters: In no particular order:
1. Luke Danes (Gilmore Girls): He’s one of those characters that tries to be tough and manly but is actually the biggest softie on the inside. As the show goes on, he really gets to where he wears his heart on his sleeve, and I just love him so much and want him to be happy
2. Sonic the Hedgehog (the character from the series of the same name): My first love lol. Sonic taught adolescent me so much about confidence and being who you are, and without him I wouldn’t be where I am today. He’s got all the heroic qualities (courageous, skilled, etc.) but he’s also a genuine sweetheart, good with kids, all that stuff. He’s a kid who really rose to a challenge, and who doesn’t love that kind of story?
3. Edward Elric (FMA): I’m not through with the show yet, but Ed never ceases to amaze me. Sonic’s “I’m a poor child who rose to greatness” story ain’t got nothing on this boy. He’s an amazing big brother to Al and an all-around good kid who’s been swept up into a bona-fide mess. Plus I can’t help but laugh every time someone calls him short or talks about Winry so there’s that lol
Top 3 Ships: Again, in no particular order:
1. Sonic and Amy (Sonic the Hedgehog): Again, my first real ship. It got out of hand in middle school and somehow I still love it. Sonic’s got the adventure and romantic streak Amy needs, and Amy’s got the 360 degree view and firmness Sonic needs. They’d have their share of problems, but they’d work it out and be super cute.
2. Luke and Lorelai (Gilmore Girls): YOU WANNA TALK ABOUT PERFECT FOR EACH OTHER. Cuz they are. They’re probably the only two people in Stars Hollow who can keep up with each other and their witty banter is to die for. They’re so supportive of each other, and that’s not even a result of their relationship; the whole 4 seasons before they got together, they were practically best friends. That’s a really good sign, in my book.
3. Flynn/Eugene and Rapunzel (Tangled): Yes, a Disney couple. The way these two are developed as a pair is just stellar, and there’s no end to the list of good things they do for each other. Too perfect? Maybe, but that’s Disney for you. Plus I ran out of other ideas lol
TAGGIN’ TIME! (Only if you want to, friends!) @srvfan17 @moms-spaghettios and anyone else who cares to give this a whirl.
#sonic#gilmore girls#fma brotherhood#the lego movie#tangled#sonamy#luke and lorelai#edward elric#luke danes#flynn rider#rapunzel#sonic the hedgehog#tag games#hedgie speaks#the sad and sorry mess that is me
