Fink doesn't stop Roz in time and she is successfully acquired by Vontra, who has different plans after getting a taste of Roz's code and breaking her own.

[5amanthus]

"So, you knooow how everyone likes to joke around, right?"

Scarab recognized an opening and didn't participate in the stalling. "I have become aware."

Prismo hummed miserably to fill the silence and create the space for thought he had been denied. "...Well, I guess there was some talk at an office party...and drinks were involved...and someone thought this would be so funny. I wasn't part of it, I just heard about it today!" He clarified quickly, but avoided eye contact again. "Apparently everyone agreed and thought it'd be a good prank...I guess? Long story short, the idea became drunken paperwork and now I'm being commissioned to write...a...uh. A, um, well, thankfully just a story and not an all out universe, but an...'intimate' one. With...us."

.

.

(More Prohibited Wish content, woooo!)

[5amanthus]

        "'Hang'?" Scarab scoffed, sitting down heavily as he mimicked quotation marks. "Can you not comprehend my unending hatred for you? You don't even like me!"

        "I mean, yeah, you're a jerk, but I don't hate you. I actually didn't mind spending time with you, alright?" The Wishmaster shrugged nonchalantly. "And I thought you just hated me for the job stuff. You can...you don't gotta be here if you don't want to be here."

        "Why do you want me here?" He demanded, glaring up at the other being.

        "I just- I needed some help, okay? You wanted this job so badly, I thought...I don't know."

[5amanthus]

Caine comes up with an activity that forces everyone to work in pairs. Some partnerships are more agreeable than others, but things take an unexpected turn between Jax and Gangle.

.

It is done! (Until chapter 2)

.

(Fucking 5505 words, what the hell man 😂)

[5amanthus]

        "You're right. I should put you down then." Scarab said, shaking his head as he made a move to hover the cube over the surface of the water and earning a flustering whine from his prisoner.

       "Alright, you win, okay? What do you want? Do you want me to admit I want you to keep touching me? I want you to stroke over the edges again? To dig your claws in? Squeeze me? I've never been cubed before and this is the closest thing I have to actual physical touch, okay? Excuse me for being a little desperate."

       "Not quite what I was after, but the begging is nice." He admitted, dragging the tip of his claw down one of the edges, feeling the entire shape shudder. "Keep going."

[5amanthus]

Despite his attempts to avoid accountability, Jax is forced to face the consequences of his actions. He's pushed out of his depth and unexpectedly has the roles reversed on him.

[5amanthus]

Spot begins to get used to his new life with Eddie and Venom, who help him expand his social circle.

.

.

Now with a chapter 2!

[5amanthus]

"Yeah, I think I'd rather mess around with the monsters."

        "Aw, moving on from me already?" Shaquille clutched his chest as if the words actually wounded him.

        "With jokes like that I might." Fabian muttered, but his gentle voice remained playful.

        "Speaking of," Jordan nudged the pair as they passed, "Your boyfriend is waiting. Get a move on so we can go." They headed over to help their coworker lift the gear onto the desk.

        "Again?" Fabian sighed, following then with Shaquille close behind.

        "You know it doesn't take the scrap until you do it." Jordan said, dusting their hands off and looking back at him. "I've worked this job two years and I've never seen Jeb so responsive to an employee."

Finally got something to show for my Lethal Company fic, woohoo!

[5amanthus]

Mummy Scarab! Mummy Scarab! Mummy Scarab!

[5amanthus]

"You killed him, without trial. Why ?"

        "You never listen to me." Orbo sighed, rolling his body and eyes while he skirted around the smaller being. "Orders. From. The. Boss. Our new auditor did some digging on that unauthorized universe, made some good points. The new guy's a lot more likable than you, but for some reason he liked your work ethic. Put in a good word and the boss agreed. No more rogue universes, no more Prismo. Few hundred years ago I probably would've put up more a fuss, but you changed him. Really dragged down his vibe, maybe this was for the best."

        Scarab's claws pierced the wall, their grip the only thing keeping him standing and grounded as he fumed but listened, powerless to change this.

        "Anyway, should be going. Congrats on the promotion. You finally got your wish, mate. How does it feel?" The orb dropped a specialized cane at his feet, the clatter punctuating the silence, and his lack of response earned a scoff. "Ungrateful as always, eh, Scrabby?"

[5amanthus]

"You are so high up in your cosmic tower you can't even recognize your privilege. I am forced to silently watch you break rules constantly and consistently, never learning from your mistakes. Yet..." He wavered and drew in his claws, pressing his fist to the surface instead while he regained his nerve. "Yet, I fail once. Once. And my wings were mutilated. Ripped from my back for my incompetence. So I would always, always remember my place. To do as I was told or suffer the consequences, but not you. No, never you. You spit in the face of my punishment everyday you continue to exist."

        Prismo didn't speak, no words could communicate everything he wanted to say and everything he was afraid to.

[5amanthus]

Another distress signal, another interruption. The crew is hesitant to help after the mess that resulted from bringing Chartreuse aboard, but one last pit stop before Polus won't be the end of the world, right?

        "Is something wrong, Dad?" Lime asked as they all entered the room.

        Brown turned to look between Cyan, Red, Lime, and Pumpkin. He didn't seem anxious, but he definitely wasn't excited either as he indicated to the console screen. "There's something strange on the sensors. Can any of you make anything of it?"

        "What is that?" Cyan scrunched their nose at the screen before looking through the view window to a clear cosmos. "It looks almost like a cloud, but I don't see anything out there."

        "I'd say it's a dark matter storm, but they don't pulse like that." Lime mumbled as he tapped on the screen then joined them in staring into the star-speckled darkness. "That's so weird."

        "I was thinking the same thing but our systems are primed to alert us. There was no alert for this." Brown explained, sitting back in his chair and crossing his arms. "Red, what do you think?"

        Red paused under the attention before staring at the anomaly on the monitor for a beat. "I don't know. This isn't really my area and I've never seen anything like it."

[5amanthus]

    "Do you need help?" The humanoid asked.

        "No!" Venom spoke for him, their face appearing to growl at him. "He has to pay. He is starving US!"

        "We are not starving! They're just mad I didn't let them eat those drunk assholes last night."

        "You only feed us chocolate and tater tots. Mrs. Chen is right! We need better food! Look at us!" Venom exclaimed as they raised his sweater, which he quickly pulled down with an offended shout.

        "You refuse to eat vegetables-"

        "So do you!"
