Hello, stranger.

Hello! I’m Danny, twenty-two years old and you can refer me with she/her pronouns. This is a semi-selective roleplay sideblog for multiple fandoms, ranging from Detroit: Become Human, Pokémon and many more. I follow back through @desolationtrial so if you get a notification from that blog, it’s me. Muse-list and rules can be found under the cut, which are required to read before following me.

Please be patient with my response speed. I'm mentally ill and don't have the energy to be here 24/7 for everyone. If this happens to be a dealbreaker for you, save your breath and don't follow me.

This blog has no tolerance for callout posts or drama, fullstop. Don't ask me to engage with it, I will block you for stirring bullshit. I will also remove muns for sharing too many politics. It's exhausting and people come here for escaping from the real world. Fandom police are not welcomed here and will be blocked.

I will ask you to refrain from using me as your roleplay meme archive. I find it disheartening when I see a notification from my top screen, only for it to be someone reblogging from me instead of the source without sending anything in. An exception will be made if the source is deactivated, but otherwise I will softblock if it’s prevalent.

By following me you will understand I have trigger warnings set in place for my writing. This includes character death, murder, violence, drug and alcohol abuse, religion and abuse. I’m not responsible for you not making practical use of a blacklist to curate your dashfeed.

No sexual content with anyone under the age of eighteen. If I find out you're lying about your age, I will block you. This blog is multi-ship and happily accepts more partners. Please respect the sexualities of my muses before asking.

I'm crossover and original character friendly. Just give me information on your muse so I'm able to familiarise with them better. I welcome every fandom except portrayals of real people (YouTubers, wrestlers, etc) as I find it disrespectful and in poor taste. Assassin’s Creed falls under this exception. Don't follow me if you're here to shit on my fandoms. It's not cool and I won't be entertaining any petty garbage.

I don’t send in passwords/codes. It’s nothing against you, I just find the whole system awkward to follow.

* you come across a merchant offering their goods. across the table, there's many items that may aid you in your adventures. what do you choose?

2P Alaska and Hawaii

State Name: Alaska

Human Name: Dmitri Braginski-Jones

Looks: He’s about the same height with similar looks to his 1P. However, instead of tanned skin and black hair, Dmitri has white hair that turns black when he’s angry and almond-shaped red eyes that are similar shade as his biological father and pale white skin. He also wears a white hooded parka with blue pants and boots.

Personality: Unlike Peter, Dmitri is enthusiastic, social, and nice. Don’t let that fool you though. He can be quite cruel to those he feels deserves it (Or are just enemies of the United States of America). He’s also a bit of a kiss up which he sees as a survival tactic in a house filled with people who would happily use him for their own use. However, he does genuinely care for his adopted sister, Hawaii, although he tends to be a bystander when she is being bullied for being the youngest in their very large family.

State Name: Hawaii

Human Name: Pele Lili’uokalani Jones

Looks: Whereas Lani has curly black hair, Pele has smoky black hair that fades into red that hangs straight and is usually quite messy. She also has her father’s slanted red eyes and her parents’ tanned skin. She usually wears a black muumuu dress with red hibiscuses embroidered along the hem and collar. On her head, she wears a black scarf to hold down her messy locks with red hibiscuses on each side.

Personality: Like her namesake, Hawaii is for lack of a better term, hothead. And not only that she is a possessive, rude, and foul-mouthed state who suffers from Borderline Personality Disorder and PTSD after the attack on Pearl Harbor essentially killed her. She is also very untrusting from a mixture of her parents, the trauma she suffered when she was a toddler state, and being seen as a pack mule by her older brothers and sisters. She also has a deep hatred for her father who tends to ignore her and for Japan for causing her to have first shattering at such a young age.

help me stop procrastinating >.< I drew this to celebrate Sunny Side getting 400+ subscriptions on Smackjeeves, so that was cool. It's just a small picture of them in a scifi universe, but I've actually drawn more of them in this au since. It contains characters from both of my webcomics, actually.

"yahoodevelopers: By Dmitry Basin, Edward Bortnikov, Anastasia Braginsky, Eshcar Hillel, Idit Keidar, Hagar Meir, Gali Sheffi Real-time analytics applications are on the rise. Modern decision support and machine intelligence engines strive to continuously ingest large volumes of data while providing up-to-date insights with minimum delay. For example, in Flurry Analytics, an Oath service which provides mobile developers with rich tools to explore user behavior in real time, it only takes seconds to reflect the events that happened on mobile devices in its numerous dashboards. The scalability demand is immense – as of late 2017, the Flurry SDK was installed on 2.6B devices and monitored 1M+ mobile apps. Mobile data hits the Flurry backend at a huge rate, updates statistics across hundreds of dimensions, and becomes queryable immediately. Flurry harnesses the open-source distributed interactive analytics engine named Druid to ingest data and serve queries at this massive rate. In order to minimize delays before data becomes available for analysis, technologies like Druid should avoid maintaining separate systems for data ingestion and query serving, and instead strive to do both within the same system. Doing so is nontrivial since one cannot compromise on overall correctness when multiple conflicting operations execute in parallel on modern multi-core CPUs. A promising approach is using concurrent data structure (CDS) algorithms which adapt traditional data structures to multiprocessor hardware. CDS implementations are thread-safe – that is, developers can use them exactly as sequential code while maintaining strong theoretical correctness guarantees. In recent years, CDS algorithms enabled dramatic application performance scaling and became popular programming tools. For example, Java programmers can use the ConcurrentNavigableMap JDK implementations for the concurrent ordered key-value map abstraction that is instrumental in systems like Druid. Today, we are excited to share Oak, a new open source project from Oath, available under the Apache License 2.0. The project was created by the Scalable Systems team at Yahoo Research. It extends upon our earlier research work, named KiWi. Oak is a Java package that implements OakMap – a concurrent ordered key-value map. OakMap’s API is similar to Java’s ConcurrentNavigableMap. Java developers will find it easy to switch most of their applications to it. OakMap provides the safety guarantees specified by ConcurrentNavigableMap’s programming model. However, it scales with the RAM and CPU resources well beyond the best-in-class ConcurrentNavigableMap implementations. For example, it compares favorably to Doug Lea’s seminal ConcurrentSkipListMap, which is used by multiple big data platforms, including Apache HBase, Druid, EVCache, etc. Our benchmarks show that OakMap harnesses 3x more memory, and runs 3x-5x faster on analytics workloads. OakMap’s implementation is very different from traditional implementations such as ConcurrentSkipListMap. While the latter maintains all keys and values as individual Java objects, OakMap stores them in very large memory buffers allocated beyond the JVM-managed memory heap (hence the name Oak - abbr. Off-heap Allocated Keys). The access to the key-value pairs is provided by a lightweight two-level on-heap index. At its lower level, the references to keys are stored in contiguous chunks, each responsible for a distinct key range. The chunks themselves, which dominate the index footprint, are accessed through a lightweight top-level ConcurrentSkipListMap. The figure below illustrates OakMap’s data organization. OakMap structure. The maintenance of OakMap’s chunked index in a concurrent setting is the crux of its complexity as well as the key for its efficiency. Experiments have shown that our algorithm is advantageous in multiple ways: 1. Memory scaling. OakMap’s custom off-heap memory allocation alleviates the garbage collection (GC) overhead that plagues Java applications. Despite the permanent progress, modern Java GC algorithms do not practically scale beyond a few tens of GBs of memory, whereas OakMap scales beyond 128GB of off-heap RAM. 2. Query speed. The chunk-based layout increases data locality, which speeds up both single-key lookups and range scans. All queries enjoy efficient, cache-friendly access, in contrast with permanent dereferencing in object-based maps. On top of these basic merits, OakMap provides safe direct access to its chunks, which avoids an extra copy for rebuilding the original key and value objects. Our benchmarks demonstrate OakMap’s performance benefits versus ConcurrentSkipListMap: A) Up to 2x throughput for ascending scans. B) Up to 5x throughput for descending scans. C) Up to 3x throughput for lookups. 3. Update speed. Beyond avoiding the GC overhead typical for write-intensive workloads, OakMap optimizes the incremental maintenance of big complex values – for example, aggregate data sketches, which are indispensable in systems like Druid. It adopts in situ computation on objects embedded in its internal chunks to avoid unnecessary data copy, yet again. In our benchmarks, OakMap achieves up to 1.8x data ingestion rate versus ConcurrentSkipListMap. With key-value maps being an extremely generic abstraction, it is easy to envision a variety of use cases for OakMap in large-scale analytics and machine learning applications – such as unstructured key-value storage, structured databases, in-memory caches, parameter servers, etc. For example, we are already working with the Druid community on rebuilding Druid’s core Incremental Index component around OakMap, in order to boost its scalability and performance. We look forward to growing the Oak community! We invite you to explore the project, use OakMap in your applications, raise issues, suggest improvements, and contribute code. If you have any questions, please feel free to send us a note on the Oak developers list: [email protected]. It would be great to hear from you!". Reblog with caption 🙃

Hello @vodkanburgers I was your secret Santa for the @rusame-secret-santa-2017 I’m very sorry for not having this up sooner I just wanted it to be perfect and I ended up having so many ideas that I ran out of time to do but here is your gift I decided to go with the villain prompt, I included some sketches to go with the story at the end as well as some of the things I never got to finish for this as a bonus. I hope you enjoy 😊

The bosses hitman

Word count: 4,049

Rating: pg13

Warning: blood, death

It was a crisp November night, the usual lively city and citizen, now as silent as a graveyard, except for the roar of an engine, speeding down the street. The vehicle was a large armored van, five passengers, all armed, and one hell of a payday laid inside; 200 pounds of marijuana and other illegal drugs and firearms. A shadowed figure stood on top of a small 2story building, observing the path of the van. The road had many potholes and cracks, this part of town was what some would call a ghetto, perfect for criminals and the likes. The van hit one if said potholes and bounced violently, so much so the occupants of the vehicle didn’t notice the added shake of the van as the shadowed figure jumped onto the roof of it.

The van came to a stop, 10:04, six minutes before the meet up. The van shook as the dare devil on top jumped off “what was that?!” The front passenger barked “go check it out boy’s” the driver ordered, the man closest to the door opened it and 2 walked out, they split up one going left the other going right,

“hey Charley I don’t see any-*chocking noises*“ before the man could finish his sentence a sharp pain ran through his neck, blood gushing from it “dan? You ok? Dan?! Are you messing with me” Charley walked around to the other side of the van, only to find that dan was no where to be found “d-dan?” The goon questioned to his empty surroundings. He walked a bit away from the van, to look for the other, now out of range of site. Then there was a thump, something or should I say someone, jumped from the trees behind the goon. There was a loud crack as the mans neck was twisted the other way, he feel to the ground with a thud, the shadowed figure walked the other way; towards the van.

“They should have been back by now” the third guy in the back said to the passenger in front “you’re right. Go check it out-“ just then the door swung open “hey who are-ugh” the 3rd goon was shoot through the chest, the guy in the front set went to grab his gun but before he could a bullet was shot through his head, the shadowed man stepped into the van, finally allowing his appearance to be seen; a blonde man, around 6’ft. Electric blue eyes hidden behind wire frames and a strange, cowlick like strand of hair sticking up, he held a rifle and had a pistol, as well as a knife and back up ammunition strapped around his leg

“who and where is your contact?” He said as he walked towards the driver “W-who are you”

“oh? I’m sorry I haven’t introduced myself yet. Alfred F. Jones, nice to meet you, now, answer the question” he snapped “I don’t know man ,” Alfred walked over to the man and grabbed him by the collar “I’ll ask you one more time, where is your contact?” He seared at the driver “I don’t know! I’m just the driver,” the man cried as the blonde landed a punch on the mans right cheek.

“Now, who is your contact and where Can I find them” he demanded after the guy was thoroughly pummeled, but the guy was already out. The sound of a vehicle pulling up the old, cracked road, range through the dead silent air “shit! I’m out of time!” 2 men stepped out of the car “well only one way out of this now” Alfred claimed as he grabbed the gun off of the guy next to him.

————————

A platinum blonde man with sparkling amethyst eyes sat at a desk, obviously bored out of his skull by the, seemingly endless amount of words on the documents he was going over, he had begun to play with the ends of his scarf, wrapped loosely aroynd his neck to hide a scar that covered it. A gold name plate on his mahogany desk read Ivan Braginsky. A large dark gray/brown cat slept on one of the cushioned chairs opposite to him

A soft knock at his office door signaled the arrival of one of his many subordinates “ah, Dmitry” Ivan noted, not even bothering to look up from his papers “b-boss it-“

“what did I tell you, call me Ivan or Mr. braginsky” he interrupted “right s-sorry sir” Dmitry conceded “now, what did you need, Dmitry?” Ivan asked as he finally set down his papers, glad to have a reason to do so. “Oh! Right, Jones is back and is asking to see you, sir,”

Ivan perked up at this, his eyes sparkled like jewels at the name, he had always had a bit of a soft spot for the blue eyed hottie hit man , dare I say a crush even, he was one of the few people who wasn’t afraid of him, which lit a spark of affection and curiosity inside him for blonde haired assassin

“send him up” he announced, as Dmitry left the room to fetch Alfred, Ivan 𝑰𝒎𝒎𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒍𝒚 started trying to tidy up his desk and papers to make them look neater. A knock soon came to the door “come in” he stammered as the tall blonde walked through the door “hey Ivan dude” the American laughed, Ivan’s world lite up at that smile, every thing around him just had a glow around it “so how did the mission go?” Ivan inquired, trying to play cool, i mean he is a Russian mafia boss so this shouldn’t be too hard right

“Oh, the mission went great, killed 7 and ones in interrogation” he said with a slight smirk, rather proud of his work “you deposed of the body’s properly, yes?” He Queried “of course, what do you take me for, a newbie” Alfred laugh, although some of Alfred’s habits and tendencies seemed quite strange and forgetful to Ivan, he had to admit Alfred was excellent at his job. As Alfred sat down on one of the plush chairs on the opposite side of the desk, Koshka (Russia-cat) came to greet him by rubbing against his leg “hey Koshka” he said as he rubbed the cats face.

��Good, here’s your pay” Ivan said as he slid over a wad of cash, Alfred noticed an extra five hundred in the stack as he counted it “oh? A bonus, what’s the occasion” Alfred commented “think of it as a holiday bonus” Ivan divulged, the corners of his lips tilting up as he said it. Soon after Alfred left to his room, being as all of the top employees or subordinates stayed in the mansion.

————————-

It was around 3am every one in the mansion was asleep except for Ivan and a few guards, who stood out front. Ivan had just finished his paper work and was going to grab a drink Of vodka before bed, as always. He pored himself a few more glasses of vodka than usual and decided to cut himself off. As he soundlessly walked back up the stairs from the kitchen, he heard a noise come from the living room ‘someone must have left the tv on’ he thought as he changed his destination to the living-room. As he suspected the tv was left on, what he didn’t expect was to see Alfred asleep on the couch by it.

Ivan froze, he had never seen him so defenseless and calm, almost angelic in a way. Well besides the drop of blood splatter on his face like an abstract painting, the blonde shivered, it was the middle of winter and the 2nd living room was the coldest in the house so it was inevitable. Ivan knelt down and lifted the sleeping American, to which he immediately snuggled into the large Russians chest. Ivan smiled softly at him, with a slight blush spread across his face, he marched up the stairs to Alfred’s room.

He had never actually been in Alfred’s room before and excepted it to be a mess, but when he opened the door he found that it was near spotless, with every weapon imaginable hung neatly on the wall, from pistols and rifles to knives and swords, all with there place. His bed was the only thing that was a bit messy, the American flag print sheets and blankets having been tossed around in sleep from previous nights. A large beige cat with a fluffy black tail and fur around its neck laid asleep on top of the mess, he laid the sleeping Alfred down on the bed and was about to leave, after a few minutes of just watching the other peacefully sleep, when he turned to walk away he felt a tug at his scarf

“I..van” Alfred mumbled in his sleep as he rolled over, further onto the scarf. Ivan of course was blushing immensely now, he did something he knew he shouldn’t have, he blames it on the alcohol even though he knew he was capable or downing a good 3-4 bottles of it with no consequence, he knelt down and placed a light kiss on Alfred’s forehead, wiping the blood off of his cheek as well so it wouldn’t stain the sheets while he was asleep. He unraveled his scarf from Alfred’s grasp and walked out the room with an accomplished smile strung on his face and headed for his room to get some well deserved rest.

The next morning he was enjoying some coffee with his sister, Katyusha or Katia . Dmitry had just walked in “ah, Dmitry, can you call Alfred up here”

“a-ah, sorry sir, but he’s o-out right now” Dmitry stammered “oh, well send him up when he come back” Ivan responded as Dmitry left the room “hey what do you think of Alfred” Ivan asked Katia as he went over some ‘business’ affairs

“who? Oh you mean the hit man” she chimed as she sipped he coffee “well, he’s very good at his job and every time I’ve talked to him he seemed pretty nice. Why?”

“Well there’s a mission coming up in Russia that I need an accomplice for” he said looking back down at the documents. “What do you think of him, Vanya” she asked slightly suggestively, Ivan covered his face to hide the growing blush “he’s …. хороший (nice)” he said, trying his best to play it off. “Ivan what do you really think off him? I know you gave him that bonus, you never give bonus’s of that much, вам он нравится, не так ли, ваня( you like him don’t you?)” She repeated “ah, you caught me” he relented, embarrassed as he rubbed the back of his neck, he looked around to make sure no one was around “ты прав, я в него влюблен(you’re right, I’m in love with him)” Ivan didn’t even have time to thing over what he had just said, a knock hit the door

“yo, Ivan you wanted to see me” Alfred said with a smile as he entered the room “I’ll be going now, удачи“ Katia said as she slipped through the door ‘damn, I really hope he didn’t hear me… wait I said that in Russian so even if he did he shouldn’t know what I said… hopefully’ he though as he walked over to his seat behind his desk “yes, there’s a mission I would like you to take” Ivan cooed “cool, when is it, who do I get to kill” Alfred responded eagerly “there is a party about a month from now I would like you to attend with me, we have a client to meet and I might need some backup, are you in” Ivan disclosed as he leaned in on his desk “ yeah, sure, sounds like fun” Alfred jabbered “is that all, I kinda have a “thing” to take care off now” he said as he stood from his seat “yes, a thing?” Ivan questioned although he should have known by now, honestly “yeah, he’s down stairs, I’ve been dying to try out my new knife” he answered from the doorway

————————-

It was 4 am December 21, Alfred was making sure he had packed everything for about the 12th time. Ivan had told him that they would be gone a few days and that they would have to take a plane to get there but that all he had told Alfred of the mission, not that he really ask much about it to begin with, he was honestly just happy about being able to spend the holidays with Ivan, just the two of them, even if Ivan had no idea of his feelings for the him.

An alarm went off on his phone, signal that it was time to go, their plane leaves at 6 and it’s about a half hour drive, so from there they would be able to grab a bite to eat and board the plane within an hour and a half. Alfred slid down the railing, suitcase in hand, he hopped off at the bottom and walked over to the large French doors leading out front to the car. When he opened the door he found Ivan waiting outside the car, looking at his phone “are you ready fredka” Ivan asked as he took notice to the others presence “yep, let’s go” he said as he hurried down the stairs and into the car with Ivan.

They drove to the airport and drove straight to the back, where all the planes were held “we’re taking a jet?” Alfred asked, looking to Ivan for an answer “Да, we’re taking my private jet” Ivan said as he pointed at the jet they pulled up to. They boarded the jet and took off. About 5 hours in Alfred started to get a bit restless “hey Ivan how long till we get there” Alfred inquired “another 10 or so hours” Ivan answered as he took a sip from his glass of vodka “What?! Where are we going anyway?!” Alfred exclaimed, now regretting not asking before hand “Saint Petersburg”

———————-

After their 15 hour flight, they finally arrived in Moscow, they grabbed their luggage and headed for the car waiting for them to take them to the hotel they would be staying at.

It was now December 24rd the day of the party and rendezvous with the client, they had spent the past two days adjusting to the new environment around them

“Hey Alfred are you ready yet” Ivan asked as he knocked him the bathroom door. “Yeah almost,” he replied from behind the door as he combed is hair one last time. “So how do I look?” The American Queried as he stepped out of the bathroom. Ivan was in shock, he couldn’t move or speak, he was all to star struck by the beauty that sat in front of him “Ivan? Dude you ok?” He asked concerned as he walked further towards him “д-да, I’m fine, you look good” Ivan stated not-so reassuringly “ok then, let’s get going” Alfred suggested doubtfully.

8:47, December 24, the two had split up for the time being to look less conspicuous, they were to meet at 8:50 on the 14th floor balcony, to meet their contact. Ivan was “mingling” as some would call it, he hated it with a passion, annoying, pompous businessman try to rope him in to conversation, women through themselves at him, much to his dismay, even though he was feared by most, he was still a tall Russian Adonis, with money to burn as well as a well renowned businessman, so he would often attract this kind of attention. Finally the timer on his watch went off, signaling that it was time to go. Alfred on the other hand was watching from the sidelines, observing the party goers, their personalities, habits and more, as well as exploring the gigantic 26 story building. His timer soon went off and he walked to the rendezvous spot and waited. Ivan soon joined him “what took you so long?” Alfred asked as he turned to face him “sorry, I got tied up by some girls, they wouldn’t let me leave” he responded, Alfred could feel a hot spark of jealousy lite with in him at the thought of some bimbo hanging all over him.

“Ah, bonjour, es-tu ivan” a French voice asked from behind them “Francis?!” Alfred exclaimed, Francis was another mafia boss, he had been the one to teach him a lot of the things he knows, he was like a father to him in place of his absent one “Alfred? Que fais-tu ici“(What are you doing here) the french man asked “oh, je travaille pour lui, je suis sa sauvegarde pour ce soir(oh, i work for him, i’m his backup for tonight)” Alfred chimed “ you speak french?” Ivan asked in almost disbelief, well would-be disbelief if it weren’t Alfred “yeah, French, German, Chinese, Ukrainian, Finnish, Swedish, Spanish, Italian, Bengali, Arabic and Russian” He explained proudly, Ivan stated in shock but then turned his attention back to the matter at hand. The two mafia bosses talked for about an hour about the job and objectives of it, they were to take out a very important political figure that night, hence the big guys them self being there, the guy was a rival gang boss who had been stirring up too much attention. They would have a small window of time around 11:12 so they would have to shadow him until then

“I’ll go track him down, He was last seen by the bar so, wish me luck, I’ll call you when I locate him” Alfred announced as he walked back inside, Ivan couldn’t help but stare as he did. Francis soon caught note of this “oh hon hon, you have feelings for mon boy” he teased “and what is it to you” Ivan retorted as he walked over to stare off the balcony “well Alfred has always been like a son to me, but mon Ami if you love him you must tell him, take what is yours. You are young and inexperienced in this dark world of ours, but I have seen what you can do despite all of that, so allow me to offer you some advice, you must take what you want, no what you need if you ever hope to survive this world. You must tell him, it a very lonely life for ones like us if you have no one to share it with” Francis advised as he joined Ivan to look over the balcony, reminiscing over the past . A ding went off from The Russians phone “he found the guy already” Ivan muttered as he dashed off to Alfred.

The two trailed the guy for about half an hour before he started to catch on “shit, looks like he’s catching on” Alfred muttered under his breath as the target mumbled to a security guard and glanced over to at them. Ivan reacted fast, knowing they would need to make them self less conspicuous,

“care to dance, fredka” he said, offering a hand to Alfred, without missing a beat Alfred took it and said “I would love to, vanya”. The two began to dance around the ballroom “my, my someone took classes” Alfred teased as Ivan skillfully spun him around “but of course, just for moments like these” he retorted “does it look like he’s off our trail yet” Ivan whispered into Alfred’s ear as he pulled him close “not yet, he still looks suspicious” the American responded as he moved his feet to match the pattern of Ivan’s.

As the song went on they got more and more into it and soon the world around them faded, leaving just the two of them, dancing in harmony with one another. The song soon ended leaving the two hopelessly staring into one another’s eyes, they soon snapped out of the trance, Alfred caught wind of the fact that their target was nowhere to be seen “crap, we lost him” he said as he broke from their embrace “let’s split up to cover more ground” Ivan suggested, feeling a bit disappointed and pissed off now, he took the left wing, Alfred took the right. Alfred seemed to merge into the shadows, leaving Ivan bewildered as he walked the opposite direction. Ivan searched room after room till finally finding the target in one of the lounge rooms. The room was dark except for the moon light pouring in through the windows, just enough to light up his silhouette

“so your the one who’s been following me” the man stated with a thick Russian accent “what are you talking about, comrade” Ivan denied, a smile on his face but a dark aura surrounding him “wait…i-I know you, your that mafia boss,” the man faltered as he Finally saw his face. Ivan slowly approached the door, locking it. “Да, you are right” he said as he sat on the Victorian style sofa “w-what do you want from me” The man pleaded, backing up to the wall by an unlit fireplace “oh me, nothing from you, but you see you interrupted something very important to me, some ones going to have to pay for that, now” Ivan stated calmly, his aura however, was another story, the darkness of it seemed to hiss and screech at the man, enveloping every thing around him in a dark haze.

The man started to panic, desperately looking for any weapon he could find, his eyes landed on the fire iron, he snatched at it and was about to stake it through Ivan’s heart. Suddenly the man dropped, blood gushed from his head, 2 bullets, fired from a suppressed, beretta 21a bobcat, had gone straight through his skull. Alfred stood behind the body a splatter of blood across his face as well as gun. “You ok” he asked Ivan, who looked as calm as ever, he nodded in response and calmly stood “let’s go before we draw any unwanted attention” the tall Russian suggested as he strode over to the door, unlocking it. He paused “how did you get in here?” He turned to ask the blonde hit man, who was currently arranging the crime scene to look like a suicide, the beretta was the perfect weapon for this since it could easily be stashed away into a pocket “the window was open” he answered while pointing to the window that, was indeed open. He stared in almost disbelief for the second time that night but once again was snapped out of it because, well, it’s Alfred we’re talking here. The walked down the hall to the elevator, hitting the button to go down to the first floor once they where on, of course it would take a while being as it was an old elevator and they were on the 14th floor.

Alfred looked up and noticed a sprig of mistletoe stung above their heads, he chose to seize the moment to confess his feelings “hey Vanya” he sung “hmm-“ Ivan went to look over to the other but was meet with soft lips smashing against his own rough ones, he soon melted into the kiss, increasing in passion by the second. Their lips moving in sync, connecting like puzzle pieces. Their tongues danced together in a passion unattainable to most, strong, cold hands ran across and under Alfred’s shirt, causing him to shiver. The elevator dinged, signaling that they had reached their floor, Alfred slowly parted from the kiss just as the doors began to open, leaving Ivan a panting mess, hungry for more “ya know, you have terrible aim, you missed my lips the first time” Alfred said with a wink as he seductively walked out of the elevator, leaving Ivan not knowing what had just hit him “Ебать-копит” he breathed as he ran to catch up to Alfred, they hopped in the car and drove back to the hotel where they proceeded to continue their little escapade from the elevator all night long. Needless to say they soon started dating after said night.

The next is some sketches I did for the fluff prompt
