Tumblr media
A late lunch is brought to your door after you wake up. You have no idea how Sam knew you were awake, perhaps she'd timed your jet lag that well.
She tells you to enjoy, that her team will be here around dusk to get you dressed for your date.
You smile at that word, knowing that she had no real clue what your husband was really up to.
Later in the day, there’s a knock on your door.
You open it to Sam, with her binder, looking eager.
“Are you ready?” She asks with a smile.
When you nod and open the door wider, she turns her head and nods too, and you blink in surprise when four other women follow her into your room with a lot of different things in hand.
You spot a garment bag, and a makeup kit, another bag has a hair curler sticking out.
They introduce themselves, their specialties are in hairstyles, makeup and nails.
You're out of your depth and you say so, glancing over at Sam for some kind of help.
“Don't worry, we already know what to do based off your preferences.” She explains, “You just have to sit back and enjoy being pampered.”
You guess you could try.
When they're done, you're surprised to see so much of yourself there.
There's a lovely little tiara on your head, your hair in a delicate updo with strands framing your face. The dress- is beyond beautiful, white shimmering fabric, an off shoulder design that makes you feel like a princess.
Your fingers and toes are freshly done in a dark red like you'd requested, so that they can match the red on your lips.
There's a small heel on your silver shoes- safe to run in while still being pretty.
“You guys are amazing.” You say in wonder as you fully assess yourself.
They laugh, happy that you're satisfied.
Sam presents one final thing to you, the one odd thing you'd asked for that wasn't in your binder.
You grin at her, ducking into the ensuite bathroom and tugging the garter out of the box, sliding it on. 
There's a small knife attached to it, and you make sure it's concealed, and easily reachable through the slit in your dress before you step out again.
When they’re finished with some last minute makeup retouches, Sam smiles proudly, and wishes you a very good night, letting you know that they’ll all be leaving you soon, here alone with your husband. 
You can’t help the excited pulse your nether regions give at the reminder, dressed pristinely from head to toe, all for Billy to tear off.
You grin at Sam, walking the small group of women to the door, listening quietly to their plans for the night, encouraging and enjoying their banter, sending them off with a wave into a car waiting for them.
The heavy wooden door closes with a dull sound that echoes through the castle, emphasising your desolation.
You turn, leaning against the door in your shimmery dress, taking in the quiet silence of the place.
There’s a little bit of fear tingling down your spine, the feeling of being truly alone in such a big place, not really knowing where you are, with no means of escape.
You find that it turns you on.
All dressed up, all for him, and you can’t even really leave, a headiness to the realisation, your fear is an aphrodisiac all on its own.
You bite down on the corner of your lip, smiling, pushing yourself away from the door, and decidedly picking a direction to begin your exploration.
You touch everything you see, trailing your freshly done fingertips over every item, examining the feel, appreciating the textures.
The curtains, the lighting fixtures, you examine all of it, a crown on your head that makes you almost feel like you own it all.
You get into the fantasy he’s weaved, becoming the role of the princess he’s cast you in.
You find the throne room first, a flourish of plum and golds, a large red carpet leading to the thrones in question- two- sitting side by side, beckoning you closer. 
You squint, looking up at the massive chandelier that sits in the middle of the room, with little pieces of glass that if cleaned properly, would probably reflect little shards of light. 
You pick the chair on the right, and settle yourself onto it, sighing happily at how comfortable it is, relaxing for a moment, before standing to continue your exploration.
You’re passing the dining room when a phone begins to ring in the distance.
It sends a shiver of fear over you, the dated sound echoing through the halls. You begin searching for it, following the rings of what you assume is an old era phone.
You find the phone on a table at the bottom of the staircase, ruby red, sitting beside a marble statue of a woman, posed with her hand in the air as if to block the light from her eyes.
It keeps ringing until you tentatively pick it up, bringing it to your ear.
“Hello?” You say softly into it.
There’s a voice on the other end, modulated to be unrecognizeable to you, but even that sends a shiver of excitement through you.
“Princess.” The voice says calmly.
You swallow.
“Who is this?”
The voice is deep, each grovel is a tremor in your body.
“I’m just a nightmare, sweetheart. I hope you’re ready for me.”
You shudder, shaking your head.
“Ready for what?”
He doesn’t answer your question.
“You look gorgeous. Prettier than I expected. It’s making me… want.”
You stiffen, taking a breath and looking around, searching the shadows for some sign of a man, lurking in the darkness.
“You can see me?” You ask in a soft whisper, laying the fear on thickly.
“Of course, princess. I’ll be inside soon, we’ll get a nice, long introduction to each other.”
You gasp in surprise, dropping the phone and moving quickly to the doors you passed during your exploration, making sure that they’re locked.
Your hand is on the door separating the kitchen from the gardens- when the lights go out.
You hear your own breath of surprise, your heart pattering in your chest, real fear being awakened inside of you when you realise that this is actually happening.
Everything is still, you’re afraid to move, the darkness becoming honey thick all around you.
Eventually, being still is too much, and you have to force your body to break the stillness around you.
There’s barely a sliver of light, the moon, casting pale streams through the windows. Instinct tells you to stay where you can see, your body backed against the window, eyes peering into the darkness as if it’s alive and coming for you.
You glance down when something shimmery catches your eye, gasping, you realise that the moonlight makes you a bigger target, your dress reflecting its beams in every direction.
It leaves you no choice but to step into the darkness.
You wonder where he is, if hands will just reach out and grab you at any given moment.
It makes your stomach tight, that what you’ve been yearning for is almost within reach.
“Hello?” You call out shyly, voice shaking just a little. You walk softly out of the kitchen, one hand against the wall to guide you, unsure of exactly where you’re going.
Suddenly, a chill runs over the back of your neck, like a soft breath from someone standing just behind you. You turn, waving your hand into the darkness, and finding nothing but air.
You feel so much like prey in that moment, searching for a predator with hunting skills beyond your comprehension.
You’re passing the dining room when your heart freezes in your chest. In the corner of your eye, you can see the silhouette of a dark figure, standing in the moonlit window.
Your breath halts in your throat, turning to face him, the swishing of your dress is louder in your ears.
The mask is- terrifying- white, with the appearance of fractured glass across it, some pieces missing over the cheek area, his real face peeking through.
He raises a hand, and presses a gloved finger to the mouth of the mask.
You turn, and run.
Fuck, this was it, it was really happening. He was here, and he was going to do all the things he promised he would, all the things you’d practised together so that he was sure you were always one hundred percent safe and comfortable.
You’re not very fast, the dress and heels slowing you down
He grabs you at the very moment the lights flick on.
It takes a moment for your eyes to get adjusted, and then you gasp when your back is slammed to a wooden wall behind you, the intricate carvings pressing uncomfortably to your spine.
His hands are on your shoulders, keeping you in place as you look up at him with fear in your eyes.
You finally get a chance to see him fully, all masked up, covered from head to toe in what can only be the most mouth watering look on the planet.
Sure, his suits were divine, but seeing him dressed down like this was a cherry on top of a malevolent cake.
It clings to his skin, the cut of his chest and arms showing through the tight, long- sleeved shirt, tucked neatly into a pair of navy combat pants, and further into boots.
It’s much easier to note where you can see his skin- on his wrists between the sleeve and the glove, his neck, and parts of his face that show through the fractured pieces of his mask.
He’s a work of devastating art, lust incarnate, bringing forth so much delight that you struggle to hide it.
“Please,” you whisper shakily, getting into character, feeling it spark arousal, “Don't hurt me.”
You watch the darkness clouds his eyes, a predator, hidden beneath layers of humanity, finally being set free.
“Oh, princess,” he whispers, leaning in, trailing his gloved thumb over your jaw and cheekbone lovingly, “I am definitely going to hurt you.” 
You gasp at his words, reaching for the weapon strapped to your thigh. It was your turn to give him a surprise.
The dagger is sharp, you made sure of it, wanted it to be real, you wanted to see a genuine look of surprise in his eyes when you finally pressed it to his neck.
Except, he doesn't look surprised at all.
“Leave.” You say, with so much command in your voice that you almost believe you have the power to say something like that to him.
He studies you for a lengthy moment, before he tilts his head back and lets out a deep laugh, and even that, works to seduce you.
His hold is an iron grip on your wrist, and it was a mistake letting him grab you, he’s too strong, and no matter how hard you struggle, you can’t get your hand back.
“This knife is pathetic, princess.” He grabs the hilt, twisting it so that you’re forced to release it or have your wrist twisted too, it clatters loudly in the empty space.
“Is that all you have to fight me off with? No wonder this is so easy.”
You exhale angrily, trying to push him away, your freshly done nails digging into his arms.
He grips your hands, pulling them above your head and pinning them there with one of his.
A soft sound of distress leaves your lips, struggling to get away but your dress is too much of a hindrance, keeping your legs pressed in one place when he moves closer.
“Here, why don’t I show you mine?” He murmurs, reaching with his free hand to pull a significantly larger knife out of his boot.
You gulp, eyeing it wearily as he rubs the handle roughly against your cheek, the hilt is coated in a rubber, with indents to help with grip. He slides it around till it’s pressed to your lips, smearing your lipstick, you angle your head away to avoid it.
“I’m going to fuck you with this,” He promises, leaning in till the mouth of his mask is on your ear,  “Gonna use it to get you ready for my cock.”
“No.” you murmur weakly.
“No?” He teases, “Well why don’t you try stopping me then?” He murmurs, pulling back a little to free you from his hold.
You’re surprised to be free, knowing that it’s just a trick, knowing that he wants to chase you. 
You keep your eyes on his form, watching him observe you as you slowly back away.
“Go on, princess,” He says in such a condescending tone that your knees wobble, “Run away from me.”
When you're far enough away that you know he won't grab you, you turn, pulling your skirts up a little so that you can run.
Heart pounding in your chest you have no idea where you're going or what your plan is beyond running away. You couldn't very well hide in a dress that glimmers when you breathe, you couldn't fight- all you really had in your arsenal was your capacity to get him angrier.
With that in mind, you grab the first heavy thing you can find- the telephone directory- turning and chucking it in his approximate vicinity.
It doesn't slow him down at all, because he grabs your wrist in the next second, pulling you into him.
“No!” You exclaim, swiping your nails across his mask, knocking it askew so that he can't see.
You’re not proud of how hard you stomp his foot next, watching him double over with a low grunt, allowing you to get some distance. 
The phone, you decide, angling your run to get you to the base of the main stairs.
You just make it to the phone- grabbing the glossy handset and raising it to your ear- before he grabs it roughly from you, reaching behind to rip all the important wires out of the back.
You almost can’t do it, wanting to drop to your knees right there and beg him to take you- but you know that deep down you had to see this fantasy fully play out.
He’s angry now, and he shows it by grabbing the entire phone and slamming it to the floor while you watch, backing away in horror, his sleek boot slamming the broken pieces until it’s nothing but ruby shards.
“Who were you going to call, princess? You don’t even know where you are.”
Jesus, you think, helplessly aroused.
The next time you turn away, he wraps an arm around your waist and picks you up.
You kick your feet in protest, scratching at his arms, trying to pry his iron grip off of you but it’s no help, you grunt, and you kick and you wriggle and still he drags your body wherever.
He drops you below the chandelier of the throne room. 
It glitters in your eyes as you try to catch your bearings, sitting up you watch him grab a length of rope from his belt.
You try to scramble back but your dress catches under your feet, making you slip, falling back even more.
He grips one of your wrists while you’re disoriented, and you feel the rope wrap tightly around it. You try to push him off, but he just catches your other hand, wrapping them securely in front of you, knotting them easily.
He stands, and with a strong arm, throws the other end of the rope through a support rung of the chandelier, catching it as it swings toward him.
Then, he pulls, forcing you up onto your knees, your hands suspended in the air, as he moves to secure the rope to the throne nearby.
You struggle, trying to tug your way out, your legs tangled in your dress, stopping you from standing.
“I wouldn’t.” He warns softly, “Pull too hard and it might fall, carving up that pretty body before I’m done.”
He kneels beside you, brushing some of your hair out of your face.
“That would make me, real upset.” He breathes through the mask.
“P-lease.” You beg, turning your head to look at him, relaxing when you realise there was no escaping without hurting yourself.
“God, you're so pretty.” He trails a gloved hand over your cheek, down your chest, the leather is smooth on your skin, you shiver when his hand reaches the top of your dress.
“I almost don't want to hurt you.” his hand smooths over the front of the dress, slipping lower to gently untangle the skirts from your legs, you adjust to let him do so, thinking that it will allow you to stand up.
You turn your head to look at him, examining his eyes through the mask, the way they linger on your body, you don’t even realise what’s been done until you feel his gloved hand slip under your panties and press right to your clit.
The friction is delicious, the smooth leather providing an interesting feel between your thighs. You look down, realising he’s used the high slit of your dress to get under your skirts easily.
“Don’t.” You beg, trying to inch away, “Please.”
“I don’t fucking care what you want, princess.” He grits out harshly, his finger pressing down more firmly, slipping from side to side, the pleasure, trying to force you to shut down your resistance.
“I’m here to steal from you, and I’m going to take everything I want.”
Your breaths become shallow when his finger starts circling your aching bud, you’ve been denying yourself for so long that you feel the sweet burn of pleasure the longer he does it.
You can even feel how wet you are, in the fluidness of his movements. He breathes into your ear, and you find yourself leaning into him to take the weight off of your knees.
“Don’t do this,” You murmur weakly, “Please I’ll do anything.”
He laughs in your ear, slowing his movements to torment you.
“I’m doing you a favour, sweetheart, you should be grateful. At least I have the decency to let you cum before I fuck you with my knife.”
You make a sound of protest, angling away from him.
“No!” You cry.
He doesn’t let you move far, gripping the back of your head, till it’s tilted back, hands suspended above you, his fingers resume their fast movement on your clit.
He’s dextrous, even with gloves on, you can feel the micromovements that succeed in bringing you right up to that edge even faster.
Your eyes roll back in your head, surprised that he’s got you right on edge so soon, though you know you shouldn’t be, this is your husband after all, he knows exactly how to get you off.
The weeks of denial burn, your body not accustomed to orgasm needs an extra push getting there, he presses down even firmer, speeding up.
You groan, unable to stop it, or resist it, your stomach clenched tight with nothing in sight but the precipice of orgasm.
Don’t stop, you beg internally, please don’t stop.
It’s a hollow thing, but strong nonetheless. You breathe shallowly through gritted teeth as you reach your peak, thighs trembling, as you rut yourself helplessly on his gloved fingers.
Too good, needing just a little bit more, thighs sticky with your orgasm, his fingers growing even more messy as you come.
Your vision whites out for a moment, senses evaporating temporarily, you come back to the sound of your own panting, heavy in the room.
You don’t get a chance to look over at him with desperate eyes, he pulls his hand from between your thighs and promptly shoves his drenched fingers into your mouth.
You hum in protest, trying to pull away, but he’s still got that iron grip on the back of your head.
“Taste that slutty little cunt, princess. Remember how wet you get for me when you’re begging me to stop later.”
You can only grunt your denial, with his fingers in your mouth, the taste of leather and your arousal making its point on your tongue.
When he draws his hand back, they come out with heavy strings of saliva that cling to your bottom lip.
“You’ll pay for this.” You whisper hoarsely, your head hanging low. Your arms start to ache a little from the way they’re held above your head.
It’s the wrong thing to say, he grips your hair once more, tugging your head back to an almost uncomfortable position.
“What was that?”
You make a little sound at the way he manhandles you, tilting your head, you look him in the face.
“I said, ‘You'll pay for this.”
He studies you slowly, you watch his eyes flicker as he studies your face. You curl your hands into fists, hoping he lets you down soon.
His laughter doesn't surprise you, but it does make your stomach twist.
“Yeah? Who’s gonna make me pay? You?” He says between small sounds of amusement, reaching back, he pulls the knife from before out of his pocket.
You eye it warily, as he brings the blade up to your line of sight, you swallow, trying to breathe as you examine the wicked edge of the serrated blade.
You go perfectly still when the cool metal of the blade touches your cheek.
“You might be a pretty little thing, but you have no power to make me pay. You’re all mine to do what I want. You can’t stop me.”
You whine pitifully, knowing that his words were true.
He reaches up, cutting the rope and guiding your hands into your lap. By now, they tingle, almost numb but not quite, you sigh in relief, watching him quietly squeeze your arms.
“Don’t be scared,” He says, surprisingly soft for someone who was just running the sharp edge of a knife over your cheek, “I'm sure you'll learn to love taking my cock. Maybe with time, you'll beg me for it.”
“Go to hell.” You utter with as much venom as you can muster.
Behind the mask, you hear his laugh, watching the way he lowers his hand, flipping the knife around so that the hilt points toward you.
You lean away, your dress glittering as you move, feeble bound arms raising to push his hand back as he draws closer.
You don’t get far in stopping him, and in the next moment, you feel the hilt of his blade pressed between your thighs.
Fuck, this was too good.
Your head tips back in bliss, torn between fighting him and begging him to just take you in any way he wanted.
Your husband, the man you loved with almost every atom in your body.
“Don’t fucking touch me.” You whisper on a shaky breath, turning to look at him.
Behind the mask, he huffs, the hand in your hair wraps neatly around your throat.
Pulling you close, looking into your eyes, you can hear his angry breaths behind his mask.
He wriggles the hilt of his knife against your cunt, pleasure swelling in your head at the very touch.
He stands suddenly, sheathing his knife, grips your arm to haul you up. Your legs wobble, almost giving out beneath you before he’s wrapping his hands around your hips to lift you.
With your hands tied together, there’s nothing more you can do than wiggle, shifting your body this way and that, but he doesn’t say a word, dropping you onto one of the thrones in the next moment.
He grabs the rope that's tied to the throne- the one that had been used to pull you onto your knees just moments before- and uses it to secure each hand to either side of you.
You kick your foot out at him, and he simply grabs your ankle, gloved hand trailing up to your thigh for a moment before he bends your knee, pulling your leg over the arm of the throne, and securing your ankle to a point somewhere between the base and the foot that you can't really see.
From there, it's over for you, your other foot is caught just as swiftly, and the next thing you know, you’re tied securely to the throne with your legs opened wide, draped across the arms of the intricately carved seat.
He's silent for a moment, appreciating his work, you tug at the restraints to further reinforce his satisfaction that you can't move.
“Damn. You look like a work of art.”
You frown up at him.
He leans over you, and you finally understand the versatility he has with you in this position. He could fuck your cunt, or your mouth, or even your breasts if he so wanted and you couldn't do a damn thing.
He grips your jaw with one hand, tilting your head up, coming closer, pressing a knee into the open space between your thighs for balance. When he gets close enough, he covers your eyes, and the next thing you feel is his mouth on yours.
It gives you butterflies, the way he presses in firmly, taking with his mouth, his beard scratching softly at your chin and lips. You hum against his mouth, feeling his hold on your jaw tighten for a second before he's shoving his tongue past your lips.
Like he owns you, his kiss consumes your senses, your bound fingers curling into little fists as you enjoy kissing him for a few moments more.
Before you bite down harshly on his tongue.
He pulls away in a split second, back to you as he presses his hand to his mouth. You grin in victory as he tugs the mask sitting on his head back down to his face before turning to face you angrily.
He's slow when he approaches, predatory with his long legs and his cocky attitude.
He drops to one knee in front of you, tilts his head, leaning in.
You hear the loud thud of his hand slamming into the space beside your head long before you've registered what's happened.
It makes you flinch in surprise, despite the fact that he'd practised it with you before. It seems way more sinister now, with his masked persona feeling like a different person altogether.
Naturally, the fear spinning inside of you, only succeeds in making you more aroused. 
“You're such a brat, I almost want to fuck you right now with no prep.” He presses his thumb between your spread legs, ambling slowly over your clothed clit, “I bet I'd make that little cunt cry with how much I stretch her.”
You suck in a slow breath.
“Please don't.”
He pulls his knife out again.
“You don’t really have a choice.” He answers, carefully angling the cool blade between the seam of your panties.
“Don’t move, little girl, or I might accidentally hurt you- on purpose.” He teases, tugging the knife toward him so that your panties are cut through with zero effort.
You sigh in relief when your cunt is finally exposed to the cool air, sticky with arousal, you groan when he tugs your undergarment free.
“Look at that weepy little hole princess- fuck- she’s so empty, isn’t she?”
“Noo” You hum softly, clenching around nothing as he studies your most delicate area.
He moves slowly, almost reverent in his actions, notching the tip of his hilt against your entrance, you feel your lungs seize as the pleasure hits you.
You hiss when he presses in, the ridged hilt stretching you open, not as big as his cock, but certainly larger than his fingers.
You take it as best as you can, relaxing, eyes watering with an abundance of pleasure.
He tilts his head, makes a single click of his tongue.
“She’s so greedy,” He says breathlessly, “Look at that.” He sinks more of the hilt in.
You bite your lip, moaning when he pulls slowly out, pushing in again.
He starts slow, moving softly until you can take all of the hilt. He grips the blade, you wonder if the glove protects him from the sharp edge.
You want to say his name, but he hasn’t given it, so you settle for sniffling, your bottom lip wobbling wetly as he takes his time.
“Stop.” You mewl, trying to stay in character, looking at his masked face, watching his dark eyes look back.
“No, sweetheart,” He says evenly, “I’m going to play with you, until I’m done.”
You suck in a deep breath, holding it.
He quickens his pace just a little, and before you know it, your cunt has locked tight around the hilt of his knife, every blunted ridge of it being imprinted into your head as you see stars.
It’s unexpected, you hadn’t meant to cum, your body jerking helplessly against the restraints, you pant, unable to see straight for a few moments.
You gulp in air, coming back to your senses. He waits patiently for your orgasm to subside, your body to relax before he works the hilt out of your eager cunt.
“You’re so pretty when you do that.” He says, tucking his knife back into his belt, studying you for a moment before reaching up to shove two of his fingers past your lips.
You can’t go anywhere, simply forced to feel him carefully push and pull his fingers in and out of your mouth, the weight on your tongue encouraging your brain to surrender to him.
When he determines his fingers are wet enough, he glides them down your chest, and tugs at the front of your dress.
It takes a little work before his thumb and index find your pert nipple.
A breath of air leaves you, and your back arches involuntarily, begging for more of his touch.
“You like it, huh? Kinda pathetic.”
“Rot in- f- hell.” You grunt, eyes rolling back as pleasure swims in your head from the way he takes his time to play with your nipples.
You feel his hand, drag over your stomach as he chuckles, the rushing sound as he disturbs the fabric of your skirts. Deft fingers rub circles into your inner thigh before a lone finger slips under the silky elastic garter that was holding your little knife.
You watch him assess you, bound arms and spread thighs and his masked face tilts as his eyes meet your centre.
“So pretty.” He mumbles, before he leans in, lifts his mask to the top of his head and lays a gentle lick to the seam of your cunt.
You gasp in surprise, unable to see his face with the mask atop his head, all you can do is feel- the way he licks gently at you, softly, the need burning white hot with each moment he teases. His tongue trails up to your clit, offers you a preview of the pleasure he can give, before placing slow swipes of his tongue over you.
You sigh, the fight leaves your limbs, you feel like jelly above him, with a tongue that can only be described as godly.
There’s no way you can continue fighting past this, his tongue pulls obedience from you, compliance, it makes you willing and eager to let him do whatever he wanted, helpless for your perfect husband.
You let out a slow moan, head tipping back, thighs trembling with the way his tongue moves, gliding over your clit, showing you exactly what he was capable of without ever actually giving you anything.
“Please,” You simper, unable to resist, with the tongue of such a dextrous man working on you.
If he wants to ask you about where your fight went, he doesn’t bother, merely laughing into your heated cunt, the fractures of his pale mask staring back at you.
Almost there, your fingers curl tight, nails pressed to the flesh of your palms as your breathing hastens. 
There’s a rushing in your head, pressure all over, threatening to make you burst apart.
You’re not sure if he knows or cares, his mask moving slightly when his head does, when his tongue, the raving appendage it is, delves through you.
Faster and yet faster, slippery tongue gliding over you, aimed at your oversensitive bundle of nerves, delicate movements of his tongue that are going to unravel you.
His beard rough against your thighs, a wet smacking sound, warm air brushing over you as he exhales, the reminder that he's there, enjoying his time on his knees, unwilling to stop until you've hit that peak.
He presses in closer, his grip on your thighs tightening, firm in their reminder that he’s there- as if you could forget. Your body shakes, soft whines leave your throat, his tongue harsher on your clit.
“I-” You try to say, but your body decides that you’ve spoken enough, you bite down on your bottom lip, every muscle in your body pulled tight.
The first thing you do when your orgasm hits, is tremble.
A sweet fire erupts inside of you, an insurmountable amount of pleasure spreading over you. Your breathing is harsh, heaving, his soft tongue licks you through it, gentle now and soothing between your thighs, no doubt drinking deep of your orgasm.
You press your hips into his face, unable to stop yourself, and he rewards the movement with more careful touches of his tongue.
The rope holding your arms and legs down chafes slightly, protesting your movement, and after a minute, you slump into the chair, boneless and sated.
Your breathing remains harsh, lips wet from being trapped between your teeth, your face is hot, you can feel each time the blood reaches your cheeks, each time your heart contracts in your chest.
You can't hold yourself up and you know it. If you weren't tied up you'd be in a boneless pile.
“Not bad, princess.” He says, warm breath on your thighs. He raises his body to be in your line of sight, the mask still covering his face. 
You feel your nipples tingle, excitement stiffening them as he hovers above you.
He tilts his head to study you, his gloved finger tapping the tip of your nose, sliding down to your parted lips.
“You look real pretty when you come. Your mouth opens and your eyes roll back sometimes- makes me want to do it again and again so I can memorise the way you look.”
It's hard to respond, brain hazy with post-orgasmic bliss, but you have to- you need to.
“Please,” You whisper, “You're not the first man to make me come, and you won't be the last.”
You know you're in real trouble when his hand wraps around your throat.
Your eyes widen, he squeezes hard for a moment, which only succeeds in filling your brain with mindless pleasure. You don't bother trying to breathe, waiting till his grip loosens to take a small breath.
“If you think,” He grunts angrily, leaning in till he hovers over you, “that another man is ever going to touch you, you're more delusional than I thought, princess.”
You can only make a small grunt of protest, gazing angrily up at him.
“And maybe I can't control who touched you before I met you, but I can still gift you their heads.”
It makes your breath stutter in shock.
He releases your throat, pressing the tip of his gloved finger to your bottom lip.
“Tug this off. I want to really touch you now.”
You hold his eyes while your teeth sink into the tip of his glove, biting down on his finger too. He pulls down, dislodging his finger from the glove. You release it, and repeat the process with all five of his fingers, and finally, when they're all loose, you clamp your teeth down on the middle finger of his glove and he pulls his hand free easily.
 It smears your lipstick no doubt, and you probably look quite messy by now, no doubt your hair is askew as well.
He reaches down after he makes you help with his other glove, and you hear the slow drag of his zipper. Nothing has ever sounded so euphoric.
You look up at him with wide eyes to find that he's already looking at you.
His eyes terrify you, so much darkness in them, you wonder how you'd never seen it before.
“Don't do this.” You beg, startling when you feel his hot cock brush your inner thigh.
At the same time, the main lights flicker off, only the small auxiliary lights on the walls glow softly.
The darkness in his eyes grow, until it becomes an extension of the room.
“Just breathe, princess, this is going to hurt.”
It does at first.
Even though you've come three times so far, and he's used the hilt of his knife on you, and also his tongue to help further your wetness, his size still pinches. 
It's been a while, and you feel it in the way he stretches you open, going slow because he knows he's not an easy man to take.
But God, he feels so good.
The pain comes with double the pleasure, that makes your eyes roll back in your head, bound hands curling into fists, nails digging into your palm in an attempt to process the feeling.
He pushes the tip of his cock in, works carefully to fill you, slows down when he encounters resistance.
You take a shallow breath, coming back to your senses a little, looking up at him as he works himself into you.
He rocks his hips, encouraging your body to feel him, to welcome him in, and you have no control over it, surrendering to him easily.
He's so deep you feel it in your throat, a shuddering mess as he bottoms out, you feel tears spring to your eyes, a fullness you've been craving.
Your lips tremble, watery vision glued to the mask, you couldn't look away if you wanted to.
“Should I stop?” He asks, a minuscule tremor of his voice that gives away that he's not as unaffected as he seems.
You can't say the words, the lie too big to be voiced, but you want to keep playing despite how desperately you need him.
You bite down on your bottom lip, nodding softly.
He blinks behind the mask, a tilt of his head to study you. 
Arms braced on either side of you, he leans in till the mask touches your cheek.
“That's too bad.” He murmurs.
Then, he draws out, before pressing into you once more.
You make a small sound, and then another when he does it again, the slow drag of his cock is torture, but that's the best part.
You whine, unable to speak, or voice your frustrations, but he chuckles above you, already knowing that he's not giving you what you need.
It's slow, so fucking slow and yet deep enough to create spots of black in your vision. 
He grunts above you, and the sound goes right down to your cunt, clamping around him for a second before releasing.
“Fuck.” He growls, “You're so tight. I'm going to love coming in you.”
This was it, time to be the best actress possible.
“N-no, you can't! I'm- I'm not-”
His laugh is so dark it sends shivers down your spine.
Deep and low, devastatingly malicious.
“I can’t?” He teases.
You shake your head no quickly, eyes wide in shock and fear.
He pauses his slow movements to look down at you, too enraptured to focus on two things at once.
“Who’s going to stop me, princess? You?”
You struggle against your bindings helplessly.
“It's okay, we both know you'll learn to like it.”
With those words, he resumes his slow pace.
It's not fair, barely realistic you've never had an orgasm creep up on you like this.
You don't understand, his cock is moving slow, and yet all your pleasure spots are sparking. Is it his size? Or maybe he just knows your body so well that he can force an orgasm so sweet out of you that it almost hurts.
But you can feel every spark, every short circuit of your brain, your toes curl, and your back stiffens, and the dangerous man above you draws it out, wringing each drop of pleasure before moving to the next.
“Perfect.” He whispers, almost sounding out of breath, and when your chest begins to burn, he delivers one harsh thrust of his cock that makes you topple like a house of cards.
A moan leaves your mouth on every other breath, unable to control your vocalisations, or even your breathing, clamped so tightly around him that he makes a low grunt before you feel him spill inside of you. It makes it that much better, knowing that he's hit his peak at the same time you have.
You come back to your senses slowly, his mask coming into focus.
Each breath eases the burning pleasure, replacing it with sweet euphoria, a drug like never before.
He’s panting too, trembling a little, no doubt struggling to stay upright after his first orgasm in six weeks.
And here you are, about to taunt him for it.
“Is that it?” You ask softly.
You’re a little unprepared for the way his eyes scald you.
“Is my cunt that good?” You continue to tease.
He closes his eyes, takes a slow breath to calm himself.
When he looks at you again, you know you're in a lot of trouble.
He leans away, reaches for his knife before slowly cutting the ropes free from around your ankles.
You hiss when he frees your arms, noticing that there's the impression of the rope on your wrists, you rub them as you right your legs, moving them from their previously spread state.
He watches you, and you do the same warily.
“Stand up.”
You gulp, pushing yourself onto wobbly legs, you sway for a moment, before looking over at him expectantly.
He’s still wearing the mask, but by now you’re aching to see his face, you wanted to see your husband while he did these wicked things to you.
He tilts his head toward the door, and your eyes follow the motion, not understanding until he speaks.
“Get out.”
Your head swivels back to him.
“Go, before I change my mind.”
This was another game, you realise, you’d made him mad, and he was going to show you exactly how helpless you were.
You back away, like always, keeping your eyes on his. You can feel his cum, smearing the inside of your thighs as you move. It only makes you more aroused.
You smooth your dress out anxiously, looking down at the shimmery material, and then back up at him, slowly backing away until you’re far enough that he won’t grab you from behind.
When you make it to the door, he’s still standing where he was, looking at you in the dimly lit room.
You can feel your heart in your throat with the fear of everything around you, a sinister ambience, the thrill of being chased.
Outside is dim as well.
The main lights are off. All you have to go on are the smaller lights along the walls.
You don’t get too far from the throne room before all the auxiliary lights flicker off as well.
The darkness squeezes at your heart, a shiver going down your spine. Your eyes struggle to adjust to the distinct nothingness.
The room is still, quiet around you but you can feel him everywhere. It’s like he’s the darkness surrounding you, touching your skin, depriving you of everything except himself.
It’s why you’re not surprised when you feel him at your back.
His hand reaches around, grips your throat and uses the leverage to pull you back. He isn’t gentle, squeezing at the sides harshly to ensure you’re paying attention to him, as if you could ever be distracted.
His bare hand, warm, coarse, thumb and middle finger pressed to either side of your neck. You go lightheaded at the sensation.
You feel his nose press into your hair, his lips ghosting over the shell of your ear and you realise he’s taken his mask off.
“I change my mind.” He whispers darkly, laughs when you struggle.
You pull out of his grip, and you run as fast as your legs can take you.
He doesn’t chase, and you make it a good distance away, tucking your body behind a wall to catch your breath. You don’t know where you are, but you assume it’s somewhere near the front doors. The pins in your hair are uncomfortable, and you take your time tugging the little tiara out of your hair, dropping it to the floor.
You can feel his cum, making an even bigger mess, and the implications of that only succeed in heightening your arousal.
The sound of his knife, dragging against the wooden panels on the walls catch your attention. You lift your head, a tug of desire pulls below your navel.
“You know, the first time I met you, really met you, I couldn't believe you were real.” He says, his voice carrying through the quiet hallway.
“You looked at me, and you listened, and all I could think about was how to get you alone, away from that useless boyfriend of yours.”
Your lips part, head pressed to the wall, eager to hear his words, your heart drumming in your chest.
“And when you left me that night, I went back to my lonely apartment, and I found out everything I could about you. I didn’t sleep. I needed to find something to hate- something that would help me stop obsessing over a girl I’d met one time.”
His voice gets closer and you know you have to move, or else he was going to find you. 
Quietly, you kick your shoes off, abandoning them so that your steps can be quieter, you lift your skirts slowly, trying to stop the swishing sound it makes.
“You know what I found? Nothing. Nothing could make me hate you, nothing could stop what you started when you smiled at me, all of it made me want you.”
Your heart hammers even more with his words.
“And while I was trying to come up with a plan to make you mine, I’d been yours for ages.”
You stop, turning to his voice as he says that last part, wanting to go to him, to hold him, to tell him the secret you’d been keeping for weeks- that you were his too.
“Don’t fret too much about it though, princess. There’s no need to worry, I’ll feel all better once you come on my cock.”
You gasp, backing away, one hand behind you to stop you from bumping into anything. He was absolutely insane in the best way.
You can’t see a damn thing, feeling your way around to find the entrance you’d come through, your breathing is loud in your ears, you’re sure he can hear you.
You were conflicted. You wanted to run towards the scary man hiding in the darkness, though you know it would be worth your while to run away.
“You want me so bad?” You taunt into the darkness, “You’ll have to catch me first.”
Skirts in hand, you follow the first light you see- the moonlight streaming through the kitchen windows, the feel of the carpet runner helps you move in a straight line, and the next thing you know is that you’re at the foot of the stairs.
You look back, trying to make shapes out of the darkness, but there’s nothing there, you turn and begin your ascent.
You don’t know where he is, he could be two feet or two inches behind you and you wouldn’t know.
Your body is warm from the adrenaline, the dress constricts your breathing.
You stop for a second time when you find what you think is a tea room.
There’s a large wooden table sitting in front of an equally large window, the moonlight streaming in allows you to see that there’s a wall of mirrors on one side of the room. On the other side, is a smaller round table with a porcelain teapot, and other matching dishes.
“Surprise.” He says from right behind you, and you swear your heart jumps right out of your chest.
Before you can turn to look at him, your cheek is pressed to the large table, one hand behind your neck, the other pulls your skirts up.
When he has your ass exposed, his hand comes down hard on your soft flesh. You cry out.
“That’s for all your mouthing back.” He grunts, before spanking you again.
It hurts, stings so sweetly, you try to rise but his hand is firm on the spot between your neck and shoulder.
When he’s satisfied, he reaches down between your legs.
He clicks his tongue, his fingers swiping through the mess between your thighs.
“Look at the mess you made. Don't you have any kind of consideration for how hard I worked to put my cum in you?”
You feel him move, you assume to take his cock out. Your suspicions are confirmed when you feel him kick your legs wider, pressing his tip to your entrance.
You mewl helplessly when he enters you.
Stretched once more, he feels bigger in this position, his pace is harsh, fucking into you meaningfully, your eyes roll back in your head, spit slipping from past your lips as your face is kept pressed to the table.
You feel a sharp tug and your dress loosens, too pleasure drunk to figure out why.
The glide of his cock quells your urge to fight, your body sparking, electrified at the feeling of him.
He pulls you upwards, and the front of the dress sags, exposing your front to the air.
“Look at us.” He growls into your ear, turning your head to the mirror, you see your bodies reflecting back. Him, in his tight shirt and open pants, you with your beautiful shimmering dress caught between your bodies and hanging off your shoulders. It’s the first time for the night that you see his face, and your eyes are locked on how handsome he looks, hair askew, filling you with his magnificent erection.
He’d cut the back of your dress, you realise absentmindedly, your full breasts on display for him because of that, a small sound leaving your chest as he enters you again.
“We’re perfect together.” He acknowledges, you internally agree.
He presses his lips to your shoulder, meeting your eyes in the mirror, his teeth flashing for a second before he bites you.
You cry out, the sweet burn of it only succeeds in making you want him more and more.
He doesn’t stop when you come, only slows for a moment to help you catch your breath before he continues.
“All mine now, princess.” He affirms, his hips slapping against yours, filling you till your vision blurs.
Deeper than ever, you feel his cock press securely to your cervix, eager to have him fill you with his cum.
You take a shuddering breath, so close to another orgasm, unable to think about anything with the way he feels.
Your nails claw at the table, willing your body to take him, your perfect husband, giving you just what you need. He groans above you, enjoying you almost as much as you enjoy him.
The pleasure builds, swimming in your head, worsening with each move of his cock inside of you. He holds nothing back, all of his energy is focused on filling you as hard and as fast as he can, leaving nothing behind but hot, near blistering, rapture.
You cry out when you come, body shuddering, a loud roaring in your head. He grunts loudly, following you over the edge, filling you with even more of his hot cum.
After a moment, he draws out of you, helping you stand, he gently pulls your dress off, discarding it on the ground, he reaches to scoop your swaying body into his arms.
You’re sated, unable to lift your head. You feel him rest you gently on a soft, cool bed.
The sheets are amazing on your overstimulated skin, and you peek your eyes open to watch him pull his tight fitting shirt over his head.
In the low light, your eyes find his tattoo, you smile softly as it ripples, watching him kick his shoes and pants off too, until he’s hovering above you, naked.
“You’re so gorgeous.” You whisper dreamily, raising a hand to press it to his cheek.
He lets out an air of amusement, he reaches around, gripping one of your legs to wrap it around his hip.
“Only the best for you, princess.” He hums, before you feel him push his cock into you once more.
You fall asleep to him fucking you, your adrenaline crashes after countless orgasms, and before you know it you’re out. You wake a few hours later to find him inside you once more.
You moan his name, your body still eager and receptive to him, having craved this side of him for so long.
“Messy pile of wife.” He grunts into your ear mid-thrust, “Just like I promised.”
There’s so much of his cum slipping out, you can feel it, you can’t wait for him to top you up with more.
He kisses your cheek, licks a stripe through the tears slipping from the corner of your eyes.
“Cum for me. One more time, baby.”
You gasp, nodding, head filled with cotton, floating in the clouds, lost in his essence.
You blink hazily after you feel the smooth metal plug slip in, soothing you with its coolness, arousing you with the reminder that he’s filled you to the brim.
You’re pressed against him, his hand wrapped securely around you. He stretches to reach something on the bedside table.
You’re almost asleep when you feel him slip your ring back onto your finger.
It makes you complete, eases any lingering worry.
“I love you, Billy.” You murmur, before you finally let sleep take you.
.
It wakes him up.
He blinks in shock, turning to look at you.
You’ve already fallen asleep, breaths even with your left hand pressed to his chest.
Had you really just said what he thinks you just said?
He considers shaking you awake, desperate to hear you say it again. To tell him what he’s been dreaming of for years.
What if it was a mistake? His mind asks.
His stomach drops.
What if you didn’t really mean it?
He swears he breaks his own heart in the moments after you say those four words.
He stays awake for a while, trying to memorise your words, the way you said them, the way they made him feel. He tries to learn the hour and the minute and the position of the moon in the sky at the very moment the words left your mouth.
He wonders if he’ll ever hear them again, wonders if this would be the only time in his life that you say these words to him.
If this is all he gets, he decides he’s going to cherish it.
“I love you too.” He whispers, with everything he has.
.
You’re curled up against him the next morning having breakfast when you finally take the time to examine your ring.
Your body is sore, having been fucked thoroughly, but you were a little proud to see the litany of scratches over the expanse of Billy’s back. You weren’t the only one marked last night.
You raise your hand to offer him a piece of your buttered croissant, he eagerly takes a bite.
“My ring looks the same. What did you change?” You ask, reaching for more jam.
“The inside.” He says with his mouth full.
You smile, pulling it off your finger to see what’s there. On the silver surface on the inside, you can see something engraved. At first you think it’s words, but as you bring the ring closer to your face you realise it’s numbers.
“I’m still confused.” You state.
He makes a little hum, having just swallowed his food.
“If you go to my bank, and show them this ring, and give them your fingerprint, you can withdraw from any of my personal accounts.”
You blink, your eyebrows drawing together.
After a moment you give him a confused look.
He chuckles, reaching up to cup your face, his thumbs smoothing over your tense eyebrows, encouraging them to relax.
“Any amount, little wife, any time.” He elaborates.
You blink in shock.
He was… giving you access to his money?
“Is that safe?” You ask warily.
“Planning to take all my money?” He teases.
“No! But- what if someone steals the ring… or… kidnaps me and forces me to take it?”
“That will never happen.” He promises, his fingers tightening on your cheek to reinforce his words, “As long as I’m breathing, and even if I’m not, you will always be safe.”
“You can’t stop breathing,” You fight back, leaning in to wrap your arms around him, “I won’t let you.” The words are muffled against his shirt.
He laughs.
“Noted.”
.
He grunts, his fingers curling over yours as they grip the back of the soft couch.
“Hold on.” He commands, just as he slides his amazing cock into your body.
You make a soft sound of delight, tipping your head back to rest on his chest. He groans into your ear, fucking up into you slowly and thoroughly.
His skin is hot, having spent the morning of the second day exploring the gardens outside, only to come back in and ravish you on the sitting room couch.
His left hand drops down, thick fingers find your swollen clit.
“Sing for me. Let me hear you, wife.”
You whine, the sensation of his fingers rolling over your clit makes your legs shake.
“Gonna take my cum like a good girl?” He grovels in your ear.
You bite down on your bottom lip, nodding, seeing stars as he rubs your clit with more fervour.
“Fucking perfect.” He moans, and the words go right to your cunt, setting you off.
He growls in your ear when you clench around him, it only makes your orgasm last that much longer, eager to have him cum, you roll your hips on his cock.
It succeeds in working him into a frenzy, and you’re face down, with your ass in the air in the next moment.
He licks your slit harshly before his cock slides right back in, moving faster, his hips set a brutal pace, your next orgasm is like a gunshot.
He falls beside you after he comes, out of breath with a dopey grin on his face.
“What is it?” You ask curiously.
“Nothing really,” He gasps, “I just feel really fucking good.”
You smile shyly, leaning up to kiss him.
.
You’re whisking eggs for french toast when his arms wrap around you.
He presses his nose into your hair, breathing in your soft smell.
“Morning.” He grovels into your ear, feels your body shiver.
“Hello Mister Russo. Sleep okay?’
He chuckles, remembering the feel of your lips around his cock as he came last night. Fuck, you were delightfully insatiable.
“Like a rock,” He confirms, “Join me for a bath?”
“Yeah,” You agree, “Let me finish this batch and I’ll be right there.”
“Don’t keep me waiting, little wife.” He whispers as he pulls back, reaches for an apple sitting in the basket nearby, taking a slow bite.
“I won’t. Love you.” You say absentmindedly.
Billy stops.
He turns to stare at your back in shock. You continue moving as if you haven’t said anything strange.
“What was that?” He asks.
You raise your head to glance at him.
“I’ll be right there.”
“No, the last part.”
You blink, a look of confusion on your face.
“I… love you?” 
The room goes still, the only sound is the french toast as it sizzles.
“You love me?” He asks, his heart getting heavier and lighter at an alarming rate.
“Yeah? I-I said it to you on our first night. You- you said it back.”
He did remember saying it back.
“I thought you said it accidentally.”
You pause, reaching to turn the stove off, before facing him.
“You thought my tongue slipped and I told you I loved you without meaning it?”
Billy swallows.
“I thought the number of orgasms had gotten to your head and you were saying things that might not be totally true.”
Your eyebrows raise in realisation.
“It was true. I’ve been… feeling like that for a while.”
“Like you love me.” He says dumbly.
You nod your head.
“Like I love you.” You confirm.
This wasn’t an outcome Billy had ever seen coming. Sure, he’d been hoping for fondness, that he could give you a comfortable life and you could be content by his side.
But love?
Unthought of.
“Why the fuck would you love me?” He whispers, horrified.
He’d done so many bad things, ruined your life in so many ways.
You take a careful step in his direction.
“What’s not to love? You’re smart, and strong and you go after what you want-”
“-One of those things was you.” He argues.
You laugh. He wasn’t joking.
“Yeah, how I got here wasn’t the best, but, I’m glad I am, and I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.”
He takes a step toward you, and then another, and then his arms are pulling you into a soul crushing hug.
“You love me.” He murmurs into the top of your head.
“Yes,” You reply, holding him just as tightly, “I do.”
.
“Where are we anyway?” You ask on the fourth night.
He raises his head from between your thighs.
“Europe.” He answers vaguely, before dropping his head to lap gently at your clit once more.
You smile happily, leaning back against the library desk.
“Billy?”
“Mmm?” He hums from between your thighs.
“I love you.”
You feel the breath he lets out before he pulls back. 
He kisses you, lips wet with your arousal, a tart taste on your tongue that makes you smile when he pulls away.
“I’ll show you how much I love you.” He mumbles, dropping to his knees once more.
.
Coming back to his apartment after that had felt surreal.
Like it was all a dream, the fucking best dream you’d ever had.
You’d been given a letter from your mother at the front desk, and you’d happily dropped it to the floor the minute Billy had pulled you into his arms for a slow kiss.
It was… magical, your fingers glazing through his beard, gripping his hair, the next thing you know you’re being lifted and taken to his bedroom.
The fire hadn’t left either of you, burning, sizzling sparks each time you touched, each time you held his hand or kissed his cheek.
He was all over you, inside and out, claiming you in a way you knew deep down would never be done by another.
“My wife.” He groans into your ear when he comes. 
You pant, reaching up to kiss him, legs wrapped tightly around his hips to keep him inside of you for as long as possible.
Your husband.
.
He leaves you in the early morning of the next day. It’s training day and he wants to get there early to get a jump on what he’s missed.
He kisses a path between the valley of your breasts down to your womb before he leaves, dressed in a crisp charcoal suit. You grin happily as you fall back asleep.
Later, when it’s time for you to leave for work, you find that manila envelope your mom had sent you sitting on the kitchen counter. Billy had probably picked it up from the floor where you had left it yesterday when he was leaving for work earlier.
You reach for it after you’re done hopping around to tug your heel on.
It’s unopened, so you take your time peeling it open, wondering what it was. Last time it had been a bunch of recoloured family photos, you assumed this was probably more of the same.
It’s not, it’s a stack of papers. At first, it’s odd things like flyers for bikes, and a bouncy castle rental ad. You flip through, a little concerned that your mother might be losing her mind.
Your face falls when you flip another page, and find what’s really been sent.
SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
You could feel your heart turn to ice.
You see your name printed under Plaintiff, and under Defendant, is Billy’s. Most of your information has been filled out, including your fucking social security number. Most of Billy’s information is missing, only his real name is there.
Then you see it.
‘The grounds for dissolution of the marriage are as follows:’
Divorce papers.
These were divorce papers.

Name: Binoculars
Debut: Super Mario 3D Land
Wow! What a large and crisp render of Binoculars. This is more than a lot of enemies get. And it's all for Binoculars!
It is nice to see binoculars as an installed apparatus for public use. It reminds me of those binoculars that are sometimes at parks or zoos where you can put in a quarter and get a limited amount of time to look at ducks more closely. Let's look!
Tumblr media
Wow! There's a North American Ruddy Duck! in this pond! That's my favorite duck! The blue of the male's bill is probably my favorite color, and they are so cute, especially with their funny proportions. Their head looks too small for their body, but their feet look too BIG for the rest of them! Their feet are large and further back on their body because they are divers who swim down to find food, unlike the dabbling ducks, which keep their butts above the water while foraging. Oops! I forgot that this is a Mario Post and that we aren't actually watching ducks at a pond!
Anyway I just found out those kinds of binoculars are called Tower Viewers. More like Quacker Viewers. Ok on to Mario for real now! Mario, sadly, does not view ducks with these binoculars. They are free, however, which is nice! I'm glad there are ways for everyone to enjoy the Mushroom Kingdom's landscapes at a distance and at no costs. In fact, Mario is sometimes rewarded for using them, as a Toad will throw him a Star Medal upon being seen! A Toad who really wants to bee looked at and goes HAH BAH.
Tumblr media
Mario can also see a UFO through the binoculars sometimes! This is often brought up as a Creepy Easter Egg despite the fact that aliens have been present in this franchise since 1989!
Tumblr media
With all that about the 3D Land binoculars out of the way, I am really here to say that the binoculars in Odyssey are BETTER. They look like ROB, and overall are a Funny Robot, so they are obviously better by default! They even move around on their own as if they are looking around, and they are really so good at looking, since they are binoculars. I think the binoculars themselves are bird enthusiasts and watch them in delight constantly!
Tumblr media
These binoculars even have LORE as seen in the art book, and shared by Suppermariobroth! They are made by the same company as the 3D Land binoculars, and are an older model not capable of stereoscopic 3D! They were installed by the sightseeing company for onsite investigation, and someone has to come and collect the logs from the devices every so often. I seriously love this all sooo much! It is so cute and wonderful that they put this much thought into humble little Binoculars! BinocuLORE!
Tumblr media
I would now like to talk about just how these binoculars work! Upon being Captured, they shoot up using spray propulsion (not jet propulsion!!!) and let Mario scope out the area from the sky! Mario got extremely lucky that he happened across these specific binoculars when he happened to have the ability to Capture them, because anyone else using this would be in extreme danger. Please hang on tight!
Tumblr media
Binoculars most recently appear in Super Nintendo World, where they are now real! They use the 3D Land design, which makes sense knowing it is canonically the modern design. You can even look at certain things to get little rewards just like in the game! Super Mario in real life! Wa Who!

Dying Light: The Beast Demo Impression
Imagine, if you will, a Taff who finds a life saving sort of affection in a game named Dying Light, followed by nearly ten years of dedication to one Kyle Crane. If you’d told that same Taff she’d get to go to Techland HQ after Crane’s return was announced in Dying Light: The Beast, she’d have called you silly. 
And yet.
Tumblr media
I had the privilege (the WHAT ON EARTH, how) to watch about forty minutes of Dying Light: The Beast today. It was prefaced by an in-person intro from Tymon Smektała (which was about the most heartfelt thing I’ve ever heard, genuinely), and shown to us on a big-ass screen. 
During those forty-or-so-minutes I might have shuffled in and out of this here physical realm a few times. 
The demo covered an early mission in the game. Here’s what happened:
We start in a small village and tightly forested woodland, a fading day around us. Crane is off to follow a lead, given by the new voice in our ear, named Olivia. The lead will take him to an industrial area. Eventually. But FIRST I get to feast on a gorgeous sunset, lots of smooth as heck parkour, and honestly when we ducked through a small apartment on the way, I wanted to say “Babe, pls stop I GOTTA TAKE PICTURES!”.
I don’t kid. Techland was not fibbing when they mentioned handcrafted; the attention to detail I was criminally denied the chance to rub my face all over has my hopes so far up, they’re tap dancing in the clouds. And then those very same hopes were given wings when two insanely talented artists walked us through how these environments have come together.
Seriously. I can’t wait to get absolutely nothing done in the game because I Must See All And Perceive All.
Anyhoo— back to the demo.
Night falls—as it so likes to do—and we’re warned about how the Volatiles and Freaks (at least I think I remember this right, I was often distracted by, you know, I mean, yeah) are difficult to avoid out here. All that dense woodland makes for shit sight lines and all. But Crane can be subtle and that means I will finally get to hide in the bushes with him come game release. Yay me!
One sec. Spacing out.
What was I saying?
Oh yeah. Stealth. Volatiles. 
OKAY, LISTEN— the sound design in the night-time section of the game was sublime. The snuffing and clicking of the Volatiles. The snap of twigs. The rustle of leaves. Stealth is the jam I like to put on my various bread-adjacent baked goods and this was delicious.
And pretty. Crane’ll be craning (hehe) his head up a lot ‘cause those stars need gazing.
But it’s also a night full of creepy crawlers and so we head towards the nearest safe house, which, in good old Dying Light fashion, needs a bit of TLC. Secure. Remove Infected. Find a spare fuse. Mess with a Charger and his buddies (the handgun came out at that moment and while I do not approve of wasting bullets, I approve of the reload animations). And, finally, plug the newly acquired fuse in and Let There Be Light.
The layout of the safe zone and the tasks to complete brought me back to Harran. I loved the safe zones there; each had its unique look, unique vibe; and was just different enough in what you had to do to secure it to make them their own little experiences. I hope we’ll see this make a comeback.
(Yes, I have not yet mentioned much about Crane. Stick with me. I’ll get there.)
After a snooze (well deserved), we continue to the industrial area, where the demo shifts to showing off guns even more so than before. Honestly, I liked the Dying Light (1) guns. I liked Crane with a gun. He’d always struck me as the type of man who’d know about 500+ ways to kill his fellows; and firearm mastery would’ve been right at the top. So. Yeah. I do like their inclusion.
I also fucking know he’ll keep them holstered for the majority of my game time, because pssst, the bow is right here, darling. We’re using that, quit pouting.
(Hey, she’s still not talking about Crane, is she okay? you may ask. Ha. No.)
We fight our way through a bunch of the Baron’s men, which eventually leads to one of those idiots shooting out some sorta electrical box. There’s a bit of a ruckus over something escaping, a few angry roars thrown in from a distance, and as we decide to investigate we run into a— scientist type? At least I think I’m remembering this right. 
And now I’ll talk about Crane. 
Beware: loads of personal thoughts here; not based entirely on canon. 
Kyle Crane might have once been a man who thought murder is still a big deal. Kyle Crane also might have once been a man who’d roll with the punches, always coming up swinging, but, you know. First he rolls. Then he swings. 
Now? After whatever happened to him between the Following and his capture, leading to thirteen years of being experimented on in what I suspect’ll be a cage of sorts? 
First of all, is murder still going to be a big deal? (No, henchmen don’t count; ludonarrative dissonance wants a word).
Yeah, he doesn’t straight up kill our new scientist friend. Just threatens him. Effectively. But there was a bit of disconnect in how Crane behaved leading up to the solution of the interrogation (him getting what he wanted) and what he eventually did. Namely punch the guy out, rather than kill him. 
I expected our scientist friend to die. I was surprised when he didn’t.
And I expect Crane to no longer roll, but to swing first and not give the narrative the chance to get the first lick in.
All of which I’m deducting from how they’ve leaned heavily into giving him the voice of a man who’s been thoroughly wrung out by that very same narrative. His tone is dark. Clipped. Gone are the expletives; the colourful fucks; and how everyone’s an asshole because that’s just a mood and a half.
And honestly? I don’t know how I feel about it. Yet. Sure, I’m all for the pent up anger we hear whenever he swings a weapon, but—
I love Crane because he wasn’t the moody, broody post-apo dude. You know the Imma chew some nails for breakfast and then get all growly over my (insert trauma here). The Joels, basically (and I gotta hell to the no on him). 
So, no, I don’t know how I feel about this yet. I’m approaching this with trepidation over how they might have removed what made Crane Crane; all in the pursuit of being darker and ‘more mature’, as it’s been said.
BUT— this was just forty minutes. That’s not much. And even if it ends up being true, I’ve still got, like, I dunno— at least another ten good writing years in me to bring that man back to the light. 
. . .
You know what, I am beginning to warm up to this idea. Please. Carry on.
EDIT: Since I’ve originally written this, the new dev blog came out and through that (along with what I’ve heard on site) have made me a lot less anxious about Crane having gone the way of the Complete Grouch. And just as I’ve been getting ideas.
ANYWAY
Our scientist friend got punched out, though not before he’s given us intel in how there’s a Freak here—the thing that just escaped, I presume, I was too busy collecting all the marbles I kept dropping whenever Crane opened his damn mouth to be sure—and how we can lure it.
Next stop(s): get freaky science gas, hop into a truck, drive freaky science gas around the countryside, and then jam it into a freaky science apparatus! 
(I have theories.)
But wait! Ambush! By more of the Baron’s men, no less. They, much like any other good collection of henchmen, have not learned from their rag-dolling buddies’s endless corpses and continue to think attacking Crane is a Good Idea.
Ah, well.
Then, finally, boss time! A Behemoth enters the arena (which is a junk yard, by the way) and it’s bringing with it a certain 10/10 Demolisher vibe paired with more freaky science. Someone’s obviously been tinkering on this gentle-boulder, leaving it with tubes attached to its body that give it this wonderful bioengineered look I’m so endlessly fond of. 
We fight!
It’s not going so well. 
Now I’m suspecting we’re seeing a method on how to build Crane’s fury up enough to unle— 
No. I am not writing that. You can’t make me. You cannot make me say the line, I refuse. I’ll just use increasingly silly alternatives, how’s that?
We get run over one too many times and Crane finally pops the lid off his fury. This applies the same orange filter as the one we got whenever Aiden redlined his biomarker (during a scripted sequence) and allows Crane to literally pick up a concrete barrier and lob it at the Behemoth. 
(You know, I bet that feels really good; delicious payback after getting car after car after car and fridge after fridge after fridge thrown at him before.)
Then he goes toe to toe with it, only to wrap up the fight by pulling the Behemoth’s head off its shoulders. Not cleanly, I’d like to add.
Soooo— what? We’ll be building fury in a number of different ways, then get unhinged and unlock the opportunity to finish with a flair? Cool cool. I’m in. Or so I’m thinking this’ll go. I genuinely do not know the ins and outs. 
What I do know though is that I lost all my remaining marbles after the fight. The camera fucking zooms out and I get to see the whole Crane. And, look, you can’t expect me to go to this event and be perfectly reasonable about this; about seeing this man I’ve dedicated nearly a decade to and remain normal. If you do, why are you even reading this. HAVE YOU MET ME?!
I have no clue if this means we’ll get third-person cutscenes or if this is a cinematic choice done solely for the demo, but a Taff may dream. Right?
The cutscene ends with Crane extracting something from the Freak into a jet injector. 
(Again, I have theories. Fury Power Progression? Fury Power Suppression?)
But anyway. Third-Person Cutscene. Taff is on the floor (not literally, but metaphysically) and the lights come on again and I SWEAR TO GOD, I will play this game at day one come hell and high water, and I am so, so, so unbelievably grateful to every single person ever involved in creating this franchise because you’re all a bunch of heroes to me.
:exhales:
Thanks for reading.
EDIT: I forgot to mention the weather. How did I manage to forget to mention the weather. We got so sopping wet in the rain. It reminded me of the heavy rainfall out in the countryside which I missed so terribly. Cannot wait to see how they've improved the weather system in this one.
