Accepting Perfection

Trigger Warning: Gore, blood, manipulation. If you are sensitive to these topics, please do not read.

Prequel to my pervious story which you can find here: Garnet's POV Pico's POV

Note: This is based off @rainbow-neko-artblog's FNF AU called FNF V-Mix. It's an AU with lots of manipulation, blood, and gore, soooooo yeah.

Also, Boyfriend's name is Aqua, Girlfriend's name is Cherry!

"This way, come on!" The redhead yelled, gun strapped to his hip as he carried his boyfriend on his back.

The raven groaned, his foot hurting from landing wrong, "I-I'm sorry, I-"

"Don't apologize, gem, not your fault."

The other two quickly slid down the ladders.

"There is a group close behind! I know a place we can hide out!" The black man exclaimed, running ahead as he put some headphones on.

"Here!" The woman offered the other two some ear plugs.

The raven took them, putting some ear plugs on himself before helping the redhead. The four stayed as a group, the redhead behind the other two. The woman would throw her knives when needed while the black man tried to hold back on lighting cans on fire. They didn't want to attract noise, especially since one of them was hurt.

The raven groaned, the redhead stopping, "Are you okay?"

"M-Mhmm..." The raven reassured, "I-I can run, it's not like-"

"No, you're not running with a sprained ankle." The redhead decided.

"But, babe, I'm slowing you down-"

"No, you're not, you barely weigh a thing."

The raven grumbled, "Why are you so stubborn?"

"Could say the same to you."

"Could you both have this lovers' quarrel later?" The woman asked as they continued moving.

They almost made it out of the town without running into anyone, nearing the surrounding woods. However, before they could run, they stopped. In front of them, stood two other people. There was a yellow speaker, where a demon woman sat, her wings and tail out, covered in blood. She had a feather boa on, wearing a simple purple dress that fell to her upper thighs. Beside her was a redheaded man, in bright pink and blue clothing, pink blood falling from their eyes, their noses, their mouths.

"Oh, shit, Aqua and Cherry." The redhead stepped back a bit.

The two turned, smiling brightly.

"PICO!" The man yelled, though the four couldn't hear him, only able to read his lips, "AND NENE AND DARNELL AND GARNET! WOOOOOOW! YOU GUYS CAME AT THE PERFECT TIME!"

Pico gently set Garnet down, the raven taking a gun out of his bag. Darnell held his arm out, protecting the other three.

"It's so awesome to see you guys again! Here, why don't we sing a song?! We all have such beautiful voices, it'll be perfect!"

Darnell lit a can on fire, tossing it towards the man. Aqua was quick to move out of the way before it could harm him, though Cherry stayed seated on the yellow speaker.

"Now, now, that's not very nice!" Cherry seemed to say.

Pico stood beside Darnell, tugging his arm. The man turned to the redhead, reading his lips. They didn't say a word, knowing they wouldn't hear each other anyways, just mouthed to each other as Nene and Garnet held their weapons. Aqua tried to step forward, but Nene readied a knife while Garnet cocked his gun.

Suddenly, Pico stood in front of the other three, lifting his gun and aiming at the two. Garnet went to step forward as well, but Darnell picked him up, throwing him over his shoulder. He was confused as Darnell grabbed Nene's hand and the two began to run. He blinked, staring at Pico, expecting him to follow.

But he didn't.

"Pico?" Garnet questioned, "Pico!" He called.

The redhead looked at him and smiled.

"...Pico! Pico, come on!"

The redhead read his lips and shook his head. Tears came to Garnet's eyes as he reached out, struggling in Darnell's hold. He watched as Pico looked away and fired his gun.

"PICO, PICO, COME ON! DARNELL, STOP PICO! LET ME GO, PICO, PLEASE, PLEASE, PICO!" The raven sobbed, shaking in the other's hold, "Please... don't leave me alone..."

***

Months passed with Darnell, Nene, and Garnet learning to survive with the new virus spreading throughout the world.

They called it the "Valentine Virus", or V-Virus for short. It was unclear where it originated or when it started spreading, but the thing was dangerous. It spreads through Love Language and, if a healthy person accepts that love, then they also become affected. Once infected, the person is basically a walking zombie, as it seems to convince its host that everything is "perfect". And because they are living "a perfect life", they wish to pull others into the perfect life. Because it's so recent and new, there's no cure, so survivors have to hide until someone hopefully finds a cure or to wait until all the infected die off.

However, surviving is hard.

The three would sneak around the city when they need food or drinks, trying their best to avoid the dead bodies surrounding the place and the infected that still lingered around. They figured out it was easier to blend in if they wore bright colored clothes, as that's what the infected seemed to wear, and they made sure to always wear earplugs to avoid words of affirmation.

One day, Garnet was by himself, wearing a white jacket with bunny ears, a pink mask to cover his nose and mouth, purple pants, and a purple backpack, all of which were stolen and washed. He looked down and avoiding eye contact with everyone, not knowing who was or wasn't infected and not wanting to find out. He went into a grocery store and saw most of the shelves were cleaned off. He sped-walked to the canned food aisle, shoving as much as he could into his bag before turning around. In and out. He thought, walking out of the store quickly.

A little too quick as, when he did, he ran into someone and both of them fell back. He made sure his hood was still up and-

Oh no.

"Oh, you dropped something!" The person said, picking up the earplug with a bloodied hand, "Here you go, handsome!"

"I'm not handsome." Garnet quickly said to avoid accepting the virus, scooting back.

"Aww, are you shy?" The man grabbed Garnet's ankles, "Coooome oooon, you can take it-"

"L-Let go of me-!"

The man grabbed Garnet's face, his eyes, nose, and mouth, dripping pink blood. A sign of the infected.

"Take it." The man spat out blood.

Garnet moved his legs from under the guy and kicked him over his head. He grabbed his bag and ran, ducking into an alleyway. He heard people behind him, running and yelling for him. He covered his ear with one hand, using his other to dig into his bag. He found his gun and turned, shooting at the infected people, slowing them down. He knew it wouldn't stop them, this virus was strong and manipulated its victims' until it was basically a rotting corpse, and then some. He faced forward and continued running, ducking into multiple alleyways, trying his best to run as far away as possible.

When he ran out of breath, he stopped and hid behind a dumpster, panting and gasping for breath, using the alley and dumpster as cover. He groaned, taking out his other ear plug and tossing it in frustration. He pulled his knees up and hugged them to his chest. Why... Why is this happening? Why is this stupid virus taking over?! I thought living with a transphobic and homophobic dad was hell... That's a dream compared to this! Garnet thought.

"There you are!"

Garnet widened his eyes, "Pico...?" He whispered to himself.

"I've been looking for you!"

Garnet slowly looked up, ready to smile and run into the redhead's arms.

However, he stopped himself.

Tears flooded his eyes, waterfalling down his cheeks almost instantly as he stared at his boyfriend. Pico's wardrobe had completely changed. He wore a bright yellow sweater vest over a black shirt, the sweater having white hearts all over it, light pinkish-gray pants, a white cape tied around his neck with a winged design, and bright orange shoes. He had his gun strapped to his hip with pink and red blood splattered all over him, both from infected and uninfected people.

However, the reason Garnet was crying was seeing the hearts in Pico's eyes, literal hearts, and pink blood falling from his eyes, nose, and mouth. It seemed he tried to shoot himself to stop everything, as his one ear was blown off, pink blood staining the hair around it.

"My gem! Where have you been?!" Pico walked towards him, "Awww, you got a little bunny hood, is that what you wanted to surprise me with?"

Garnet shakily got up and aimed his gun at Pico, shaking the whole time, tears falling down his cheeks. He bit it bottom lip, trying to take deep breaths, but he was just shaking.

"That's so cute, you have a bow, too!" Pico held up his gun, "I love how yours is a pastel pink, it suits you!" He stepped forward.

"N-Not another s-step!" Garnet tried to stand firm, "D-Don't!"

The redhead did so, confused, "Babe, is something wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost!"

"D-Don't call me that! Y-You're a dead man walking!"

Pico tilted his head, confused, "Garnet? What's wrong?"

Garnet put his second hand on the gun, shaking still, trying to steady himself.

"Garnet? What's wrong?" He repeated, "Why... Why are you being so weird?"

The raven took shaky breaths through his nose, trying his best to pull himself together. Come on, Garnet, he's not the real Pico! He's infected, you need- He swallowed the lump in his throat, You need to shoot him and get away!

"Garnet?" Pico questioned, tilting his head, blood dripping from his mouth, "Garnet, what's wrong? Please, tell me-"

The raven felt like he was going to have a panic attack, maybe he was already in the mist of one. He stepped back, tears waterfalling down his face, barely able to breathe as he stared at his boyfriend- was that still the right word? His boyfriend was infected with this virus so it wasn't really him and he just... didn't know.

Pico tried to step forward, "Babe-"

"D-DON'T!" Garnet yelled, stopping the redhead in his track. The raven looked down, sobbing, "D-Don't c-call me t-that..."

"...Gar, I just don't understand what's going on? You're crying so much and you won't let me hug you or help you... You know I'll protect you, right? I'll take care of you, you know that, right?"

"N-No, no, no y-you won't..." Garnet tried to stop shaking as he looked back up, trying to aim, just like Pico taught him, "Y-You're infected... You're... You're not okay..."

"'Infected?' What're you talking about? I'm fine, perfect, even! But... I've missed you. I've been looking for you."

The raven was silent, if you didn't count his sobs and hiccups.

"You know, it's not perfect without you." The redhead looked down solemnly, "I see Aqua and Cherry and they're... so happy together and I remember us being like that. Granted, we didn't do as much PDA, it was more private, but still. I... I've really missed you and was worried about if you were mad at me or something... Did I do something? Is that why you're acting weird?"

You sacrificed yourself. You had to be the damn hero. You- Garnet sobbed as he lowered his gun, "You left me..."

"I what? No, I-"

"You left me alone..." The raven whimpered, "Y-You... You left me... despite knowing my past and..." He couldn't finish.

"...I'm sorry, Garnet. I'm sorry." The redhead cooed, "I... I didn't mean to make you feel so alone. You... You know I love you, right?"

Garnet didn't say anything, but he knew the answer.

"I love you so much, G. You know I can, and will, take care of you. I want to protect you, to cherish you, you're my gem, remember?"

Garnet was silent.

"Come on, Garnet!" Pico opened his arms, smiling softly, "I promise, I'll take care of you for the rest of your life!"

That...

"I'll protect you, get you whatever you want, spoil you, you won't want for anything, I promise!"

That sounds...

"I love you, Garnet! So much!"

The raven dropped his gun and bag, running over to Pico. He sobbed as he ran over, practically jumping into Pico's arms as the redhead hugged him tightly, soothing him.

That sounds perfect.

Garnet felt sick almost immediately after he fell into Pico's arms. He coughed up reddish-pink blood, his legs becoming jello. Pico helped set them down as Garnet coughed and gagged, feeling lightheaded, nauseous. He felt blood trickle down his nose, felt blood mix with his tears, coughing up more pink blood.

Until, finally, Pico helped him to the dumpster as he vomited pure bright pink blood.

"Well?"

Garnet looked at Pico and... everything looked... brighter? It was happier, there was no broken buildings- wait, why would there be? There was no scariness of needing to survive- wait, survive from what? And Pico's injuries seemed healed and- wait, was he ever hurt? No, he couldn't have been, no one would hurt an angel with a bow and love-filled arrows!

"Feeling better? Feeling okay?" Pico asked, cupping his cheeks.

Garnet blinked before he smiled, nodding. Why was he so upset before? Pico was here, he was here, everything was fine, everything was perfect!

"Here." Pico picked Garnet up, smiling, "I'll carry you home. You had an eventful day! Time for you to relax!" The redhead kissed his cheek as he began walking home, "I love you!"

"I love you too." Garnet smiled.

Everything was perfect.

Perfect Life (Pico's POV)

Trigger Warning: Gore, blood, manipulation. This one has a lot more blood and gore. If you are sensitive to these topics, please do not read.

Note: This is based off @rainbow-neko-artblog's FNF AU called FNF V-Mix. It's an AU with lots of manipulation, blood, and gore, soooooo yeah.

Also, Boyfriend's name is Aqua, Girlfriend's name is Cherry!

Also, also, Canon X OC my beloved. ...Pico my beloved-

Enjoy!

"Picooooooo~" The man laughed as the redhead helped him put on a second necklace, "Don't you think I have enough?"

"Of course not!" Pico kissed his cheek, "You're my gem, Garnet, and gems are always surrounded by gold, silver, that expensive shit. So, if you don't mind-" He teased, grabbing a bracelet and putting it on him as well, "-I will continue to deck you out!"

Garnet giggled, letting the other put some rings on his fingers.

Pico smiled, wishing he could just decorate Garnet in all types of jewelry, wanting to spoil him forever. He knew Garnet wanted that too, which made him feel so good. It made him fall more in love with the other, especially knowing Garnet has only been pampered and taken care of like this by him.

"So, what're we doing today?"

Pico snapped out of his thought, humming, "Well, Aqua and Cherry want to go to a park to soak in the sun. But I don't know, what do you wanna do, hun?"

"We should go! Oh, it would be so nice if you and Aqua could sing together!" Garnet exclaimed excitedly, "I haven't heard you sing in so long!"

Pico's heart fluttered, hearing how excited his boyfriend got. How could he possibly say no? He smiled and picked him up, "Alright, I'll sing for you."

Garnet smiled brightly as he wrapped his arms around the redhead's shoulders, Pico holding him tightly. He carried Garnet out of their apartment, almost skipping to the park as he held the man, Garnet constantly kissing his cheek and lips. Pico smiled and happily returned the kisses. They got to the park and stood in front of the beautiful marble fountain full of beautifully clear water, Pico setting the other down on the edge. Pico sat beside him, holding his hand as they waited for Aqua and Cherry.

"Ah, there they are!"

The two looked up, seeing Aqua pushing Cherry on a speaker, coming towards them.

Aqua stopped the speaker, smiling at the two, "Hey guys! I didn't expect you to be here! When I invited Pico, I thought he wouldn't show and instead want to take you to lunch or something, G!"

Well, he's my priority. Pico thought, Need to make sure he's happy.

Garnet smiled brightly, "Well, I wanted to hear you and Pico sing!"

Cherry gasped and nodded, "Yes! That'd be awesome! You got this Aqua, let me hear you sing!"

"I'm rooting for you, Pico!" Garnet swung his legs, giggling.

Pico's heart fluttered again, smiling at the other's excitement. He kissed Garnet's hand, cheek, nose, and finally his lips, wanting to just hold him a little longer. Once he pulled away from Garnet and turned around, Aqua threw him a microphone, the redhead spinning it around in his hand. They stood in front of one another, Cherry turning the yellow speaker on. A beat began to play, the two singing with one another. Pico would make finger guns and "shoot" Garnet, winking occasionally, causing the man to blush and shyly look away. He's so adorable, so perfect, and mine. Pico thought.

The first song ended, Cherry and Garnet clapping for their partners.

"That was amazing! Oh, I love spending time with my boyfriend and best friends!" Cherry giggled.

"Baby girl, you know I'd sing for you any day of the week! Just ask!" Aqua blew her a kiss.

Pico looked at Garnet with a smile, kneeling in front of him, taking his hand and kissing it. He loved to always show his affection through physical touch and Garnet loved it too, it always made him smile. And what more could Pico want?

"How was that?"

"Amazing, my love." Garnet cooed, "Can I have another?"

"Of course." You don't need to ask! Pico thought as he kissed Garnet's lips before he turned around, "Come on, Aqua, let's go again!"

"You got it!"

The second beat began to play as the two singers began once more. Pico smiled, knowing Garnet was having a good time, even beginning to dance with Aqua as they continued. Suddenly, however, Aqua stopped and Cherry gasped. Pico was confused and turned around, seeing Darnell holding his boyfriend. Pico quickly ran after them, concern and worry on his face. He removed his cupid's bow from his back and pulled back an arrow, aiming it at Darnell's back. However, when Garnet looked up at him, confusion written all over his face, curiously, innocently, his hands started to shake.

He put his bow down and watched Darnell duck behind an alley, staring at where they once were.

"PICO!"

The redhead continued staring, shaking.

"PICO!" Aqua caught up to him, pushing Chery on her speaker still, "Pico! Where's Garnet, what happened?!"

He said nothing.

"Pico, are you okay?" Cherry asked, gently putting her hand on his shoulder, "Where's Garnet?"

"I-I... don't know..." Pico's world began to loose color, all the brightness and perfection of the world seeming to disappear, "He... Garnet... My gem... He-"

"Pico-" Aqua tried.

"I-I failed him, c-couldn't protect him! A-All he wanted was someone to pr-protect and take care of him, he-"

"Pico." Aqua held his shoulders, whispering into his ear, "You're amazing at protecting Garnet! You didn't fail! You can't fail at protecting Garnet! Darnell only grabbed him because he wants to live a perfect life too! So, why don't we help them?"

The world turned bright again as he blinked before smiling, nodding, "Right you are, Aqua!"

"Cherry, you don't mind sitting out, do ya?" Aqua asked, "I'll take you home to rest as Pico and I get Garnet!"

"That's fine!" Cherry smiled, "I don't mind at all!"

"Okay, I'll be back in a little bit, Pico!" Aqua began to push Cherry away.

I'll get you back, love. Pico smiled.

***

Pico kicked the door down, his bow in his hand with Aqua right behind him as they got to the house where Darnell, Garnet, and Nene were. Garnet had tears streaming down his face, pink ribbon cut and resting beside the chair he sat in. Nene held up some scissors as Darnell widened his eyes, staring at Pico and Aqua.

"Garnet, my gem!" Pico smiled brightly, "There you are!"

"R-Run..." Garnet whispered.

"Pico, let's calm down!" Darnell put his hands up, "Put the gun down-"

"Gun? Oh, my bow? Don't worry!" He lifted his bow, pulling it back with an arrow, "These arrows are packed to the brim with love! Here, let me help you live your perfect life!"

"Me too!" Aqua took out a microphone.

"Cover your ears!" Nene screamed as she and Darnell ran, ears covered.

Pico shot towards them, missing them and almost hitting Garnet. Aqua ran after Darnell and Nene, but Pico walked to Garnet, smiling at him.

He kissed Garnet's forehead, "I'll be back in a second." He cooed, promising, before running after Aqua.

Aqua had tried to hug Darnell, but the man kicked him away, both him and Nene now wearing noise cancelling headphones. Pico lifted up his bow and shot towards them, Nene dodging and throwing scissors at him. Aqua turned on his microphone, beginning to sing words of encouragement and affirmation, trying to at least distract them a little bit, even if they couldn't hear him. Meanwhile, Pico tried shooting them with his love arrows, but the two somehow, eventually, managed to get away.

"Ah, man!" Aqua huffed, turning off his mic, "We weren't able to help Nene and Darnell!"

"We can help 'em later, Aqua!" Pico reassured as they walked back to where Garnet was, "Now, where-" The redhead stopped, seeing the other was gone, "Garnet?!"

He ran around the living and dinning room before going down the hallway, seeing Garnet crawling on the ground.

"There you are~!" Pico cooed, kneeling down beside Garnet. The redhead put his bow down and watched as Garnet grew still, confusing him, "Silly, what're you doing on the floor?"

"P-Pico, please-"

Pico helped him sit up, sitting in front of him, "What's wrong, honey?"

"M-My legs! P-Pico, my legs!" Tears formed in Garnet's eyes, "A-And you! Y-You're covered in blood and- and-!"

Pico cooed, cupping his cheeks, "Everything is fine, baby. Everything is perfect-"

"N-No! No, no, it's not!" Garnet sobbed, "L-Look at my legs, Pico! I-"

"Here, let me kiss it better."

The redhead looked down and kissed his knees, seeing Garnet's eyes sparkle. That's it, we're fine, perfect.

However, Garnet then shook his head, his eyes dulling once again, "Pico, we're hurt, we're infected, nothing is okay, we could die-"

Pico couldn't help but frown, Garnet going stiff. He was scared. Scared of me? No, he couldn't be. Pico thought, sighing.

He kissed Garnet's cheek, "Baby, did I ever tell you what my perfect life was?"

The man shook his head, scared.

"It's simple, really." The redhead cupped his cheek, "My perfect life is being the lucky man by your side, making you happy."

Garnet blushed, his eyes sparkling for a moment.

"And you want to be taken care of, you want to be protected, and who better than me? Your boyfriend?" He then kissed the ring on one of Garnet's hands, "Maybe even fiancé, if you'd like?"

"Pico..."

"So, I need you to do me a favor and listen to me."

"But-"

"Everything is fine."

"I-"

"Everything is perfect!"

"Pico-"

"Everyone wants to have a perfect life and we have one!"

"N-No, that-"

"Maybe a nap will help you feel better?"

Before Garnet could question him, Pico knocked him out. He sighed, his world dulled a bit, not as bright and not as cheery. Sure, he had Garnet back, but now Darnell and Nene tried to get him away from their perfect life! And he's so hyperfixated on his legs and for what? Why was he so worried about them? He carries Garnet everywhere because both of them love it! He loves treating him like a prince, he loves carrying Garnet, he loves doing everything for Garnet, he wants to make sure Garnet never has to lift a finger! He doesn't even need legs if Pico is going to do all the work like any good boyfriend would! He doesn't even need... he doesn't...

He doesn't even need legs.

Pico stood up, laying Garnet on the floor as he left the room. Aqua was looking around at all the nice stuff, but Pico's eyes darted to the... the axe in the corner. His mind was going crazy. One minute, he was seeing everything as bright and colorful and the next, he saw how bloody and brutal he and Aqua looked. But he didn't care.

He doesn't even need legs. I'm going to take care of him, forever. He doesn't even need legs.

He grabbed the axe and Aqua looked over.

"...Hey, Pico, what're you-"

"I need you to hold down Garnet's arms."

"Huh?" The other questioned, "Why?"

"He doesn't even need legs." He repeated the mantra inside his head, "I'm the only thing he needs! I'm going to take care of him forever!"

Aqua blinked before he smiled, "Okay!"

They walked back to where Garnet was, passed out. Aqua grabbed his arms and held them down, over his head. Pico used his foot to spread his... broken, rotting legs. He won't need to worry about that soon. Pico thought. He lifted the axe over is head and swung it down, right under his knee. Garnet's body twitched as he let out a cry in his sleep. He couldn't really feel it, seeing as his legs were too broken for any real pain to be felt.

Pico swung the axe again.

Garnet groaned and whined again, stirring, shaking his head.

Pico did it once more, managing to hit and break the bone, not that it was very hard. The bones were already shattered.

Garnet woke up with a yell, looking around, confused. His eyes landed on Pico and then he looked down at his legs.

He screamed again, trying to get out of Aqua's grip, "PICCCCOOOOOO! PICO, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?!"

"Calm doooooown~ It's okay~!" Aqua cooed.

"LET ME GO! PLEASE, LET ME GO! PICOOOOOOO!"

"You don't need legs, Gar." Pico cooed, kissing his lips, "I'll take care of you, make sure we live our perfect life."

Garnet screamed, "NOOOO, LET ME GOOOO! HELP, SOMEBODY! SOMEBODY, HEEEEEEELP!"

Pico ignore him, moving and swinging at the other leg.

He sobbed, "PICO, PLEASE, I-I'LL BE GOOD, I PROMISE, PLEASE!"

Pico faltered. He... He said... he'll be good...? Like he's a dog...?

"PICO, PICO, PLEASE, I-I WON'T QUESTION A-ANYTHING ANYMORE, JUST PLEASE!" Garnet looked at him, terrified as tears streamed down his blood stained face.

It's like when we first met and he was... escaping from his father... He told me he hated being called "good" because his father tried to make him a "good girl", refusing to let him be himself... He used to always seek my approval, thinking he was no good unless he did as someone said...

Garnet sobbed, "I-I'll be good, I'll be a good boy, just please, Pico! Stop!"

That's why he wants to be taken care of, because he's been hurt and scared for so long... and I'm scaring- protecting him.

Everything around him became almost obnoxiously colorful and bright and Garnet smiled at him.

"Please, Pico." He whispered out.

Pico gripped the axe tighter.

"You're doing so well." Aqua smiled up at Pico, "Almost done! Finish the job! You're doing so good!" He then looked down at Garnet, "And you're such a good boy! Staying still and doing as your told! Good boy!"

Garnet laughed and smiled.

Pico smiled brightly.

All of this is to protect him!

Pico held the axe over his head, swinging it down again. I'm protecting him! I'm saving him! I'll take care of him! Pamper him, do everything he wants! He held it up one more time, I'm his protector, I'm his savior, I'm his angel!

He swung the axe down one more time and Garnet passed out once more.

Pico panted before dropping the axe and looking down at his boyfriend. Reality set in as he stared at his boyfriend, realizing what he just did. Tears mixed with blood ran down his cheeks, pink blood covered Pico's hands and the axe and Garnet's legs- oh god, his legs. He had completely removed them, the bones sticking out cracked and ragged as blood stained his skin. Since they were already broken and beginning to rot, there wasn't as much blood as their could have been, but still.

"O-Oh god, what have I done?!" Pico stumbled back, falling to the ground, "I-I-I'm sorry, G-Gar, I didn't- what came over me?! I-I didn't-"

"Pico." Aqua crawled forward, blood pouring from his eyes, nose, and mouth, bullet wounds all over him, bullet wounds that Pico made.

"N-No, get away, I-"

"Pico." Aqua cooed, grabbing his cheeks, "Relax, it's okay."

"N-No, no, I-"

"Pico, you did amazing."

A spark of color came back to his world.

"You're such a good protector."

The world began to turn brighter.

"Garnet is so lucky to have a strong, smart, and handsome protector like you."

"You..." Pico blinked, his world all bright, cheery, and colorful as he winked, "You think I'm handsome?"

"Objectively speaking, just a little!" Aqua teased, standing up, no wounds whatsoever, "Come on! Garnet can't be comfortable sleeping on the ground! And I gotta get back to Cherry!"

"Ah, right!" Pico stood up and smiled, seeing his boyfriend sleeping peacefully, happily, he even muttered his name!

He picked Garnet up, his hands resting under his knees as Garnet buried into his neck. He smiled, going to follow Aqua.

"Oh, wait!" Pico saw a broken golden necklace and a golden bracelet laying beside where Garnet was.

"Really? You're getting him more?" Aqua teased.

"Oh, and like you don't splurge on Cherry!"

"Never denied it!" The other laughed.

Pico smiled and looked at the broken gold, "I'll just fix it up and give it to him."

The two left the house, too far gone from reality.
