A lil' Marley/Scrooge snippet

I spent WAY too much time researching Victorian era smut and writing styles for this snippet that, alas, never went anywhere. I present it now for your enjoyment.

---

Portrait of a Rake read the title. Then, lower on the cover, Published for the enjoyment of my loyal friends and followers. There was no author. Curious, Marley flipped to a random page.

--his cock curved differently than the last man's, and struck inside me at an angle that thrilled. He held my hair as one might the reins of a horse and so doing gave a violent tug that brought my mouth in line with the prick that hovered inches from my face--

Marley's brows shot to his hairline. Then, behind him, sure footsteps that came to an abrupt halt. He looked up to find Ebenezer slack-jawed, his face the color of milk.

He surged forward, stopping just short of the desk, his features contorted in anguish. "It's filth. I know it. I found it in the tavern at luncheon, and I was going to give it to the tavernkeeper, but then I saw what it was and…" he shook his head. "I was going to burn it in the fire. Truly, I was."

"Were you now?"

"Yes," he stammered, "Paper is cheaper than coal."

"Of course, of course."

Marley opened to another page, skimmed a few lines, and this time started reading aloud. "--the gamekeeper knew no gentleness. He spread my buttocks and pushed his fingers into my hole. I cried out at the shock of it, and again when his rough hand squeezed my cock unkindly--"

"Jacob!" Ebenezer squeaked.

Marley hummed thoughtfully. "It's better than Fanny Hill at any rate."

Ebenezer looked stricken. He leaned over the desk and glanced around before whispering, "You read… smut?"

"I read a great many things. There are books in the world beyond Mercantile Accounts, you know."

"Yes, but that." Scrooge shook his head. "You're a gentleman!"

"And so are you now," said Marley as he rose from his chair, "And yet…"

He offered the book back to Ebenezer, who seemed to take it out of reflex more than desire. He was still staring as if Marley had announced he was going to waive all mortgage payments for the balance of the year.

"Burn it if you like," said Marley. "But who knows? Perhaps you'll find something of interest in it. Now, if you'll excuse me."

He went to the front office and busied himself with a nonsense task for what felt like an appropriate amount of time. Then, he returned to the counting room.

The first thing he noted was the distinct lack of pages on the fire. The second was Ebenezer hunched at his own desk, red-faced and writing feverishly in his accounting book. He did not look up as Marley entered. In fact, seeming to sense Marley's attention, he hunched down further.

Marley smirked.

(some random drawings put together of my OC Polly and Arthur. I'm just going to draw them until I finally have the time to properly write Red Adagio -the long fic about their story!)

(also it still feels a bit weird posting OC stuff. I always feel like nobody is going to give sh*t lmao, but I have fun drawing them. Will definitely post more content when I'll have some time off again!)

the true ending of disco elysium is the one where harry dies in the trash outside the whirling and garte just goes "i dont care"

the true ending of disco elysium is the one where harry collapses and dies on evrart's chair and kim has to be like "i'm sorry for my colleague. he's a funny man. he likes to make jokes at inopportune moments. up you go, detective." and evrart goes "oh of course. that's our harry, full of jokes! very funny! i do appreciate a good laugh! now let's get back to business, harry, i'm a very busy man, you know." and then they both stand there for a minute and harry is just fully dead half slumped off the chair and they both stand there like ............😐😐

inseparable. a shadow and its source. life and death. as much as you want to tear away the thought of him, you can't. you stood by him, and his shadow lingers.

also here's this TERRIBLY shitty drawing I made inspired by @denimscotch saying Lysandre needs to "take a chill pill. make slime or something" and @rainbowpufflez encouraged me to actually post it.

*yeets this and runs*

My hand regrets my decision to try for more realistic wings, frankly

Transcriptions:

Mabel Pines - Steller's Jay

Dipper Pines - Blue Jay

fledglings

can't quite fly yet

wing's aren't adult-sized yet

Dipper often forgets to preen

Mabel likes to put glitter in her wings (and Dipper's, when possible)

Dipper collects his primaries to make quill pens

Mabel collects their feathers for crafting

Yeah so I'm just gonna drop this here and uhhhhh run, thanks for checking this, and I hope you have a good day

RTD: Fifteen is emotionally available :) fifteen, unlike past doctors, isn't afraid to talk about his feelings!!

Fifteen, nonchalantly shrugging off his whirlwind romance sacrificing himself to endless torture to save ruby sunday and the world, with a cheerful smile: I have to be like this because this is what I'm like.
