The storm finally breaks, leaving behind a heavy, humid air thick with the scent of wet earth and ozone. Inside your house, a sanctuary of books and art, you sip a glass of rich, red wine, the velvety liquid a stark contrast to the pale skin of your hands. The silence, broken only by the occasional drip of rain from the eaves, is a welcome change after the tempestuous night. You're working on your newest novel, lost in the world you're creating.
A knock echoes through the quiet house, a sharp, insistent sound that startles you. You set down your glass, a sense of unease creeping over you. Who could be visiting at this hour?
You were in a black dress, a simple, elegant garment that clings to your curves, and drape a black robe around your shoulders. As you open the door, a figure stands silhouetted against the darkness, rain still glistening on his dark curls.
You couldn't recognize him. He's a striking man, with broad shoulders and a strong jaw, his brown eyes intense. Even with the weariness etched on his face, there's an undeniable magnetism about him.
He holds up his badge, the metal glinting in the faint light. "Ms. [Your Last Name]," he says, his voice deep and resonant, "Detective Tim Rockford, I have some questions for you."
Tumblr media
You invite him in, a sense of foreboding settling in your stomach.
His eyes sweep over you, lingering for a moment too long, before taking in the room ā€“ the overflowing bookshelves, the scattered artwork, the vase of dark red roses on your desk.
"You're a writer," he observes, his gaze returning to you.
"Yes," you reply, your voice steady despite the tremor in your heart.
"Tragedy," he murmurs, nodding toward a stack of books. He then glances at another shelf, where your moreā€¦ provocative works are displayed. "And erotica."
"Life is tragedy," you say, meeting his gaze. "I merely put it on paper."
He scans your desk, his eyes sharp and observant. "I have some questions about your husband, Ms. [Y/L/N]."
Your breath hitches. "My husband? I haven't seen him since last week. I heard he was on a business trip."
"Your husband is missing, Ms. [Y/L/N]," he says, his voice flat, devoid of emotion. "And we are suspicious that he may be dead."
A chill runs down your spine. "Dead?" you whisper, your voice barely audible.
"When was the last time you saw him?" he asks, his eyes boring into yours.
You hesitate, then confess, "Last week. We argued. Heā€¦ he was unfaithful. I told him I wanted a divorce. He left. That was the last time I saw him."
He's silent for a moment, his expression unreadable. "You'll need to come down to the station for questioning," he says finally. "You're a suspect, Ms. [Y/L/N.]." He steps closer, the air between you crackling with tension.
As they take you away, you look back at him, a flicker of amusement dancing in your eyes. "Detective Rockford," you purr, drawing his name out like a silken thread, "are you enjoying this littleā€¦ game?"
Then, with a swiftness that takes you by surprise, he places handcuffs on your wrists. Then two cops shows up and taking you from him.
"You'll regret this, Detective Rockford," you say, your voice low and dangerous as they lead you away. "You've made a terrible mistake."
He meets your gaze, a flicker of something unreadable in his eyes ā€“ amusement? Intrigue? "Immensely, Miss," he replies, his voice a low rumble that seems to vibrate through the air between you.
"I always appreciate a worthy opponent. And you, I suspect, are going to be a very interesting challenge."
You tilt your head, a slow, deliberate movement that accentuates the curve of your neck.
"A challenge?" you echo, a playful smile curving your lips. "Or perhapsā€¦ a temptation?"
His expression shifts, the playful glint in his eyes replaced by something more serious, more guarded. The tightening of his jaw is almost imperceptible, but you see it, and a thrill courses through you. You've struck a nerve.
He doesn't answer immediately, his eyes locked on yours, the silence stretching taut between you. The air crackles with unspoken tension.
Then, a slow smile spreads across his face, a smile that doesn't quite reach his eyes. "A temptation, Miss?" he murmurs, his voice laced with a dangerous undercurrent. "I'm sure I'll find out soon enough."
You hold his gaze, refusing to be intimidated.
"I wouldn't be so sure, Detective," you whisper, a hint of mystery in your voice. "Some temptationsā€¦ are best left untouched."
He watched, his face an impassive mask, as they placed you in the back of the police car. He didn't move, didn't speak, until the car pulled away.
Tumblr media
He turned back to your houe, a sense of unease settling over him. Heā€™d seen a lot of things in his years on the force, but there was something about you, somethingā€¦ different. He couldn't quite put his finger on it, but he knew he'd never met a woman quite like you.
He began his search, meticulously examining each room. The bookshelves, the artwork, the roses on your desk ā€“ all spoke of a complex, intriguing personality. Then, he found it.
Tumblr media
A hidden compartment in your desk, containing not only an assortment of knives and a handgun, but also a vial of what appeared to be blood and earring.
His brow furrowed. The evidence was damning, yetā€¦something didn't add up. He felt a pull, an almost irresistible urge to understand you, to unravel the mystery that surrounded you.
He arrived at the interrogation room, the sterile, fluorescent light a stark contrast to the warm, inviting atmosphere of your house. You were already there, sitting calmly at the metal table, your hands resting serenely in front of you.
He entered, placing the recorder on the table between you. "Ms. [Y/N]," he said, his voice professional, "this interview is being recorded."
Tumblr media
He leaned closer as he spoke, his gaze locking on yours. The scent of your perfume, a subtle blend of dark roses and something dangerously alluring, filled his senses, momentarily distracting him.
He noticed the intensity of your eyes, their depths hinting at secrets and hidden passions. He pulled back slightly, reminding himself of his duty.
You leaned back in your chair, a picture of composure, and met his gaze unflinchingly.
"Of course, Detective," you purred, your voice a silken whisper. "I wouldn't have it any other way." The game had begun, and you were ready to play.
"We found some interesting items in your home, Ms. [Y/N]," he began, laying the groundwork for his interrogation.
Your face remained impassive, betraying nothing. "Did you?" you replied, your voice cool and detached.
"Knives, a gun, traces of bloodā€¦and a bloody earring," he listed, watching your reaction closely.
You remained silent, your expression unreadable.
He shifted his focus. "How did you find out about your husband'sā€¦infidelity?" he asked, his voice carefully neutral.
"I caught them in the act," you said, your voice flat, devoid of emotion. "In his office. A ratherā€¦ compromising position."
"I've heard rumors," he said, his eyes narrowing, "that your husband was involved in someā€¦ shady dealings."
"Rumors," you echoed, a hint of disdain in your voice. "Everyone has secrets, Detective. Some are just better at keeping them than others."
He leaned forward, his voice dropping to a near whisper. "And what about you, Ms. [Y/ N]? What secrets are you hiding?"
Tumblr media
You smiled, a slow, predatory smile that sent a shiver down his spine. "That, Detective," you murmured, "is for you to find out."
"I have a little secret for you too, Detective," you purr, a mischievous glint in your eyes.
You beckon him closer with a flick of your wrist. He leans in, his gaze fixed on you. Slowly, deliberately, you pull up your dress, revealing a glimpse of your thigh and the black lace encircling your leg. His breath hitches. He sees it ā€“ a small, wickedly sharp knife strapped securely to your skin.
Tumblr media
"Your colleagues missed this one," you whisper, your eyes locking on his. You smile, a slow, predatory smile that sends a shiver down his spine. He leans closer, his fingers brushing against your leg as he carefully removes the knife. His heart pounds against his ribs.
He places the knife on the table, his hand lingering there for a moment. "Stand up," he commands, his voice low and husky.
You obey, rising gracefully to your feet.
"I do hope," you murmur, your voice laced with amusement, "you'll be more thorough in yourā€¦ investigationsā€¦from now on, Detective."
He stares at you, a mixture of surprise and admiration in his eyes. He begins to search you, his hands roaming over your body, lingering just a little too long on your curves.
You can feel his breath hitching, hear the rapid beat of his heart. The air crackles with unspoken desire. It's almost unbearable.
"I still can't understand," he says, his voice thick with barely suppressed emotion, "how any man could be unfaithful to a woman like you."
"My husband," you reply, your voice cool and dismissive, "was a jerk. He was more interested in young sluts, then me I guess."
You pause, then add, a hint of playful malice in your voice, "Also he never gave me a proper fuck, either."
He leans closer, his body pressing against yours, the bulge in his pants unmistakable. "Perhaps," you tease, your voice a sultry whisper, "you could give me one, Detective."
Just then, a knock on the door interrupts the charged moment. Another officer enters. "Detective, Ms. [Y/L/N]'s lawyer is here. They're requesting her release."
He straightens up, a look of frustration crossing his face. "I'm not finished with her," he protests. "I still have questions."
Your lawyer enters, a sharp, efficient woman with a no-nonsense attitude.
"My client has cooperated fully," she says, her voice firm. "There's no reason to detain her any longer."
You gather your things, a triumphant smile playing on your lips. As you leave the interrogation room, you glance back at Tim.
Something had happened in that room, something that had ignited a spark between you. He was hooked, obsessed. He knew it, and so did you.
The interrogation room was empty, the silence almost deafening after your departure. Tim sat there for a long time, the recorder still running, capturing nothing but the sound of his own breathing. He couldn't shake the image of you, the way you looked at him, the way you spoke, the way your body felt beneath his hands. He was obsessed.
He returned to his office, the evidence from your house laid out on his desk ā€“ the knives, the gun, the blood, the earring. He ran the ballistics on your gun, and as he suspected, and he didn't find anything.
He examined the blood, hoping for a DNA match, but it wasn't your husband's.
He was no closer to solving the case, but the mystery only deepened his fascination with you.
He spent the rest of the night poring over the evidence, but his thoughts kept returning to you ā€“ your eyes, your scent, your words. He couldn't concentrate, couldn't focus on anything but the woman who had so effortlessly captivated him.
He was a seasoned detective, used to dealing with all sorts of people, but you were different. You were a puzzle he desperately wanted to solve, a temptation he couldn't resist.
Tumblr media
The next night, he found himself driving to your house, drawn by an invisible force. He didn't have a warrant, didn't have a reason, but he couldn't stay away.
He parked his car down the street.
Tumblr media
His heart pounding in his chest as he walked towards your door. He raised his hand to knock, hesitated for a moment, then rapped sharply.
The door opened, and there you were, even more breathtaking than he remembered.
You were wearing a flowing black silk robe, your hair cascading over your shoulders, your eyes sparkling with amusement.
"Detective Rockford," you purred, a smile playing on your lips. "To what do I owe the pleasure?"
He stared at you, speechless for a moment.
"Iā€¦ I need to ask you some more questions," he stammered, his voice betraying his desire.
You stepped aside, inviting him in. "Of course, Detective," you said, your voice a silken whisper. "Come in. We have so much to discuss."
He entered the house, the familiar scent of your perfume filling his senses. He was playing with fire, he knew it, but he couldn't help himself. He was yours.
You offered him a drink, and he accepted, his eyes never leaving yours. As you took his coat, your fingers brushed against his chest, a spark igniting between you.
You poured two glasses of wine, the silence in the room thick with unspoken desires. Leaning against the edge of your desk, you casually adjusted your robe which barely covers your thighs, knowing his gaze was glued to you.
You could feel the heat radiating off him, the intensity of his desire. He wanted you, and the knowledge was intoxicating.
"So, Detective," you purred, breaking the silence, "did you come here for a confessionā€¦ or something else?"
He was silent for a moment, his eyes searching yours. "I don't know," he admitted, his voice low and husky. "But I don't think you're guilty."
He picked up a book from your desk, one of your dark romance erotic novels. His eyes widened slightly as he read a few lines, his face flushing. "You wrote this?"
You sipped your wine, then leaned closer to his ear, your breath ghosting against his skin.
"Yes, Detective," you whispered, your voice a sultry murmur. "I have a lot ofā€¦ impure thoughts in my head. A very, very dirty mind."
He drained his glass of wine in one gulp, his eyes never leaving yours.
"Tell me what happened that night," he demanded, his voice rough.
"After I caught my husband with another woman," you began, your voice cool and detached, "I filed for divorce. He wasn't happy about it. He didn't want to lose everything. The company, the houseā€¦ it was all in my name. My father's legacy."
"That night," you continued, your voice dropping to a near whisper, "he attacked me. He tried to..." You paused, letting the words hang in the air. "But I managed toā€¦defend myself."
He remembered the knife you had concealed earlier.
Then you add "He was more afraid of losing the money and the status then me."
"He has a scar now. On his armā€¦ and his left cheek." You met his gaze, your eyes flashing with a dangerous light.
"He ran away, calling me crazy. I told him if he ever came back, I would kill him."
Tim was stunned. "Did youā€¦?" he began, his voice barely audible.
Tumblr media
"If I had killed him," you interrupted, your voice cold and hard, "trust me, you would have found him in pieces. Or they would never have found him at all."
You took another sip of wine, your eyes challenging him. "I wanted him to suffer, to lose everything. Death would have been a reward for him. I hated him, yes. But I didn't kill him."
You finished your wine and looked at him, your eyes filled with a mixture of amusement and challenge. "If that's all you need to know, Detective," you said, "you can go now."
But he didn't move. He stepped closer, the air between you crackling with electricity. "I'm obsessed with you," he confessed, his voice thick with desire. "I can'tā€¦ I can't stay away."
He reached for you, his hands cupping your face, his thumbs brushing against your lips. His gaze was intense, burning with a hunger that mirrored your own. He kissed you, a raw, passionate kiss that stole your breath away. You met his kiss with equal fervor, your hands tangling in his hair, pulling him closer.
You broke the kiss, your breath coming in ragged gasps. "You have no idea," you whispered, your voice husky with desire, "how much I want this."
You reached for his belt, your fingers deftly unbuckling it. He watched, his breath catching in his throat, as you pulled his cock free, hard and throbbing in your hand.
"Goddamn," he breathed, his voice rough with lust. "You're going to be the death of me."
You smirked, tightening your grip on him.
"A slow, delicious death," you purred, "just the way you like it."
He lifted you onto the desk, your legs wrapping around his waist. He take off your robe, his eyes devouring your nakedness. He entered you in one swift, powerful thrust, filling you completely. You gasped, your nails digging into his shoulders.
He was rough, demanding, and you loved it. You clung to his holsters, your knuckles white as he fucked you, his thrusts fast and furious. The desk rattled beneath you, threatening to give way.
He kissed you roughly, his teeth grazing your neck, leaving a dark, passionate mark.
"You're a fucking goddess," he growled against your skin.
You moaned, arching your back, milking him with every fiber of your being.
"Harder," you gasped, your voice filled with a desperate need. "Fuck me harder, you dirty cop."
He obliged, his thrusts deepening, his pace quickening. He was insatiable, driven by a primal hunger.
He pushed you down onto the desk, his hand gripping your neck, not to hurt, but to control, his thumb stroking your pulse point.
"Yes, ohh shitt" you breathed, meeting his gaze with a fiery intensity, "this is a proper fuck."
He started to move even harder, deeper, his cock slamming against your core with brutal force. "You like this, don't you, you little slut?" he rasped, his voice thick with lust. "You like it rough."
"Fuck yes," you moaned, your hips bucking against his. "Give it to me, you animal. Tear me apart."
He kissed your breasts, biting at your nipples, leaving a trail of fire in his wake.
"You will be fucking mine," he growled, his voice thick with lust. "I'm going to brand you, mark you. You're going to scream my name until you can't speak." He thrust deeper, his eyes burning with a lust. "You belong to me, understand?"
"Yes," you whispered, your voice hoarse with passion. "I'm yours. Use me, Detective. Fuck me until I can't think straight. Make me scream."
"Come for me, darling" he commanded, his eyes burning with a primal need. He shoved his thumb into your mouth, his right hand gripping the edge of the desk for leverage as he thrust even harder.
You wrapped your hands around his holsters, pulling him even closer.
"You belong to me now, Detective," you purred, your voice laced with a dangerous possessiveness. "You're my dirty little secret."
"Fuck yes, I'm yours," he groaned, his thrusts becoming more frantic, more desperate.
"This is it, baby. This is what you were made for. You're going to be dripping for me for days."
He came inside you with a guttural groan, his body shuddering with release. You met his climax with a scream, your own orgasm rippling through you in waves of pure pleasure. He pulled back slightly, his eyes watching as your juices glistened on his thick cock.
"Look at what you've done," he murmured, his voice thick with satisfaction.
"You're a fucking mess, a beautiful, delicious mess."
You squirted, a hot, wet rush that made him groan again.
"Goddamn, you're so fucking wet for me." He didn't pull out.
He stayed inside you for a long, breathless moment, savoring the feeling of your tight grip on him.
He leaned down and kissed you, his lips lingering on yours.
"God," he whispered against your mouth, "I've never felt anything like this. You're going to be wearing my bruises tomorrow, aren't you?"
You laughed, a low, throaty sound that sent a shiver down his spine. "Maybe," you purred, wrapping your legs tighter around his waist. "But you'll be wearing my marks too, Detective. And they'll be a reminder of just how much you enjoyed this."
You kissed him back, a slow, lingering kiss that promised more to come. "And just how deliciously filthy we can be together."
You met his gaze, a knowing smile playing on your lips. "We're not yet done here, Detective," you murmured, your voice a promise.
"Not by a long shot. You're going to be begging for more."
"Ohh I'm going to fuck you again," he said, his voice a low growl, "until you can't walk, until you're begging me to stopā€¦ but you won't really want me to, will you?"
"I don't want this to stop," you whispered back, your fingers tracing the line of his jaw. "Thisā€¦ this is just the beginning of our game, Detective. And I have a feeling it's going to be a long and delicious one."
You stood up, pulling him up with you, your bodies still intimately connected. You kissed him again, a soft, lingering kiss that spoke of promises and unspoken desires. Then, taking his hand, you started to walk, teasing him with every sway of your hips.
"I'm still walking, Detective," you purred, glancing back at him over your shoulder. "You have moreā€¦ investigating to do."
He loved the way you challenged him, the way you teased him, the way you made him feel like he was walking a tightrope between control and surrender. He loved the fire in your eyes, the confidence in your every move. He was falling for you, hard and fast, and he knew it.
He kissed you again, a searing kiss that stole your breath away. "You're driving me crazy," he murmured against your lips. "Absolutely, deliciously crazy."
"That's the point, Detective," you whispered, a playful glint in your eyes.
Hand in hand, you walked together into your bedroom, the air thick with anticipation. He knew, with a certainty that settled deep in his bones, that this was just the beginning. Your game had just begun, a dangerous dance of passion, power, and obsession.
You poured more drinks, trying to catch your breath, but he pulled you closer, kissing you deeply once more. He shed his pants and boxers in a swift movement. You, in turn, unbuttoned his white shirt and removed his holsters, but then, with a playful smile, you ordered him to put the holsters back on.
"Fuck these look sexy on you," you purred, your eyes raking over his body. "Soā€¦dangerous." He chuckled, understanding perfectly.
You gestured for him to sit on the bed, and he obeyed without question. From the drawer, you retrieved a pair of black leather handcuffs. His eyebrows rose in surprise.
"We're going to play a little game," you purred, a mischievous glint in your eyes. You snapped the cuffs around his wrists, then lifted his arms and secured them to the headboard above him.
"You like this, don't you?" he asked, his voice laced with anticipation. "Is this something you used to do with your husband?"
"I love this," you replied, your eyes burning with desire. "And no, my husband hated it. We barely fucked. In the last few years, we became .....distant."
"Well," he said, a slow smile spreading across his face, "I think I'm going to enjoy thisā€¦ immensely."
You leaned in and kissed him passionately, your tongue dancing with his. You trailed kisses down his neck, nipping at his earlobe, eliciting a groan from him. Lower, you kissed and licked his nipples, savoring his reaction.
"You taste so good," you whispered against his skin. "I want to devour you."
Moving further down, you licked the tip of his cock, swirling your tongue around it, tasting his precum. He was already hard again, throbbing with anticipation. You began to suck on him, using your right hand to stroke him, your saliva dripping onto his skin. His moans filled the room, his eyes locked on yours.
Then, you climbed on top of him, teasing him with your wet, dripping pussy as it hovered over his throbbing cock. "Come on," he groaned, his hands straining against the cuffs. "I need you."
You moved slowly, pressing down on him, feeling him expand inside you. He moaned, his hips lifting to meet yours.
"Beg for it," you commanded, your voice husky with power.
"Please," he gasped, his eyes filled with a desperate need. "Please, baby, I need you. I need your pussy."
With your right hand, you guided his cock inside you, feeling him fill you completely. He threw his head back, his breathing heavy. You began to move slowly, making small, circular motions, teasing him, feeling his cock twitch and grow even harder inside you.
Cupping his face in your hands, you kissed him roughly, your tongue exploring every inch of his mouth.
Then, you started to ride him harder, bouncing faster, holding his jaw with your right hand, your left hand gripping his holster.
"You're mine now, Detective," you growled, your voice laced with raw desire. "You're going to remember this fuck for the rest of your life and you're going to dream about my pussy, about the way I taste.
"Fuck yes, I will do" he confirmed with growl.
"You're going to be thinking about this every time you see me."
You released his hands from the headboard, and he immediately reached for your breasts, his fingers kneading your nipples as you bounced on him.
"I'm so close," he groaned, his voice ragged.
"Not yet," you purred, tightening your grip on him. "Don't you dare. You're going to come when I tell you to."
You pulled him closer, your bodies pressed together in a tight embrace, and continued to ride him faster, kissing him roughly.
"Now Detective, fucking fill me up" you moan as you thrust harder.
Then, you started to squeeze his cock, milking him, feeling him shudder as he came.
He came inside you with a guttural groan, his body shuddering with release. At the same time, your own orgasm ripped through you, a wave of pure pleasure. The room filled with your moans and his curses, a symphony of lust and surrender.
"Goddamn, you're incredible," he gasped, his voice thick with spent passion. "You'reā€¦you're everything I dreamed of."
Then, you kissed him gently, caressing his face and hair, your touch soft and loving.
"You're an amazing man," you whispered, your voice filled with awe. "You're the only one who's ever made me come like this. You've ruined me for other men, Detective."
He kissed you back, his touch filled with such tenderness, such love, that it made your heart ache. "I want to do this forever," he murmured, his eyes searching yours. "I want you, always."
You freed his hands from the cuffs, and then, together, you slipped into the bath. The warm water enveloped you, washing away the remnants of your passion, leaving behind only the lingering scent of your desire. Cuddled together, you basked in the afterglow, his arms wrapped tightly around you, your bodies pressed close.
"I never thought I could feel like this," he whispered, his voice filled with wonder. "You'veā€¦ you've shown me what real passion is."
You smiled, leaning in to kiss him softly.
"And I," you whispered against his lips, "never thought I could feel soā€¦safeā€¦and so completely unleashed at the same time. You've shown me what it means to truly be desired." You kissed him again, deeper this time, your hands tangling in his hair. "And I want this too, Tim. Forever."
After the bath, you fell asleep in each other's arms, his body a warm and comforting weight against yours. You were happy, content, knowing that you had him exactly where you wanted him. Tim, meanwhile, was stunned by how quickly, how completely, he had fallen for you. He had never felt such a powerful connection with any woman before. He was obsessed, captivated, utterly and irrevocably yours.
šŸ–¤
The insistent buzz of Tim's phone shattered the peaceful quiet of the morning, waking you both. It was a call from the police station. They had found more evidence related to your husband's murder, evidence that required Tim's immediate attention.
He looked at you, his expression troubled. "You're still a suspect," he said, his voice low. "They found something."
A wave of shock washed over you.
"Is that why you came here last night?" you asked, your voice suddenly cold.
"No," he said quickly, his eyes searching yours. "I believe you. I do."
As you dressed, a sense of unease settled over you. Just as you were sharing a tense cup of coffee, a knock on the door announced the arrival of a police officer and the chief of police. Tim watched, his face a mask of frustration, as they took you into custody. He was powerless to stop them.
The interrogation room felt cold and sterile. Seated across from you were the chief of police and Tim. The chief began the questioning, his voice firm and professional. He asked about the night of your husband's death, about the attack, about everything that had happened.
You recounted the events, your voice steady despite the turmoil inside you.
"It's all on the video tape," you said, meeting the Chief's gaze unflinchingly. "It's with my lawyer, submitted as evidence for the divorce proceedings. She was leading the process, you can check that."
The Chief leaned forward, his expression unreadable. "We received a letter," he said, his voice flat, "from your husband's mistress."
Your face remained impassive, but your heart pounded against your ribs. They thought you had killed him.
"Then I think you have a wrong person," you said, your voice cold and sharp. "Maybe she'll tell you everything you need to know."
"We intend to," the Chief replied. "But we also have questions for you, Ms. [Y/L/N]. You said if you killed him, we'd find him in pieces, or not at all. A ratherā€¦specific choice of words."
"I did," you confirmed, your voice steady, your gaze unwavering. "Because if I had killed him, that's precisely what would have happened. I wouldn't have left any trace. I'm not a fool."
Tim watched you, a mixture of fascination and disbelief in his eyes. Your composure was remarkable, almost chilling.
"You also said you called your husband the day after your argument," the Chief continued, pressing you further.
"I did," you confirmed. "I told him I was filing for divorce, that I had a warrant, and that he would be served with a restraining order. His mistress answered the phone. She told me he was away on a business trip."
"The letter that mistress gave us," the Chief said, his voice carefully measured, "had a detailing the exact location where your husband's body was found."
"Then I suggest you talk to her," you repeated, your voice laced with steel. "She was the last person to see him alive. And you can verify my alibi. Check everything to see if I'm lying."
The Chief turned to Tim. "Detective Rockford," he said, "verify Ms. [Y/L/N]'s statements. Check the video footage, the divorce filings, the warrant, and bring the mistress in for questioning. I want to know everything she knows."
Tim nodded, rising from his chair. He knew you were playing a dangerous game, but he also sensed a truth in your words, a cold, hard truth that resonated with him.
After a series of calls and inquiries, Tim returned to the interrogation room.
"Chief," he reported, "Ms. [Your Last Name]'s statements regarding the video footage, the divorce filings, and the warrant are all accurate. The mistress confirmed that she spoke with Ms. [Y/N] on the phone the day after the argument, and that she told her that her husband was out of town. We are still questioning her regarding the letter and the body's location."
The Chiefā€™s expression remained unchanged, but a flicker of doubt crossed his eyes. Had they been wrong about you all along?
The Chief, despite the verification of your alibi, remained cautious. "Ms. [Y/L/N]," he stated, his tone professional, "you will remain in custody until we have completed our interrogation of the mistress."
Tim led you to a holding cell, his expression troubled. He paused before the door, his gaze meeting yours. "I'll be here," he said quietly, a promise underlying his words. "For you."
"Don't worry," you replied, offering a reassuring nod. "If you believe me, everything will be fine."
He nodded in return, a flicker of doubt still visible in his eyes, and secured the cell door. He lingered for a moment, his gaze searching yours, before departing.
Shortly thereafter, the mistress was brought into the precinct. She walked past your cell, offering a subtle, almost triumphant smile. You observed her, recognizing the insincerity in her expression. Tim, too, seemed to perceive the deception, his eyes narrowing as he study the woman.
The interrogation room was stark and brightly lit. Detective Tim Rockford sat across from Isabella, the mistress, his expression unreadable.
The Chief of Police leaned forward, initiating the questioning. "Ms. Isabella," he began, "how did you come to possess the letter detailing the location of Mr. Richard's body?"
Isabellaā€™s hands fidgeted nervously in her lap.
"Iā€¦ I found it," she stammered, "outside my apartment door. Justā€¦ lying there."
"And you didn't think it was strange that a letter detailing such a specific location would simply be left there?" Tim interjected, his voice sharp.
"Iā€¦ I was scared," Isabella replied, her eyes darting around the room. "I didn't know what to do."
The Chief pressed on. "Tell us about your relationship with Mr. Richard."
"Weā€¦we were together for months," Isabella confessed, her voice barely above a whisper.
"He promised he was going to leave his wife. He said we'd run away together, start a new life."
Tim leaned forward, his gaze intensifying. "You knew he was married, Ms. Isabella. You knew he had a wife."
"Yes," she admitted, tears welling in her eyes. "Butā€¦ but he said he loved me. He promised me a future."
Tim's questions became more pointed, more aggressive. He wasn't buying her story. Something felt off, the pieces didn't fit. The Chief, sensing Tim's suspicion, allowed him to take the lead. Her responses were evasive, her story riddled with inconsistencies. Tim could see the cracks in her facade, the fear lurking beneath the surface.
Just then, a police officer entered the interrogation room, holding a plastic evidence bag. "Chief," he announced, "we found a firearm in Ms. Isabella's apartment. Ballistics confirms it's a match to the weapon that killed Mr. Richard."
Isabella's carefully constructed composure shattered. Tears streamed down her face as she confessed. "Iā€¦ I didn't mean to," she sobbed. "It was an accident."
The Chief, his face a mask of confusion, pressed her for an explanation. "Why, Ms. Isabella? Why did you do it?"
"I was jealous," she cried, her voice choked with emotion. "Heā€¦ he was going to leave me. He was going back to her. He said he couldn'tā€¦ he couldn't be with me anymore."
She paused, her breath hitching. "That nightā€¦ we argued. He said he was going back to his wife. Iā€¦ I shot him. I didn't mean to. It justā€¦ happened."
"And the letter?" Tim asked, his voice cold.
"Iā€¦I wrote it," she admitted. "I wanted to frame her. I wanted everyone to think she did it. I knew she hated him. I thoughtā€¦ I thought I could get away with it." She paused again, her body shaking with sobs. "My friend helped me hide the body. Weā€¦ we tried to cover everything up."
Isabella's confession hung heavy in the air. Tim turned to the Chief, his gaze unwavering. "I knew it," he said, his voice firm. "[Y/N] was innocent."
The Chief nodded slowly, the weight of his mistake evident on his face. "Take her into custody," he ordered, gesturing towards Isabella. "And find this friend of hers. We need to bring them both to justice."
He then turned to Tim, a hint of apology in his tone. "Release Ms. [Y/L/N], Detective. Andā€¦take her home, would you?"
Tim's lips curved into a genuine smile. He approached your cell, the click of the lock echoing through the quiet precinct.
As he opened the door, the Chief approached as well, offering a sincere apology.
"Ms. [Y/L/ N]," he said, "I apologize for theā€¦ inconvenience. We were simply following procedure."
Tim offered his arm. "Come on," he said, his voice warm. "Let's get you home." He couldn't help the smile that spread across his face as he escorted you out of the station.
In the car, Tim glanced at you, his expression softening. "How are you feeling?" he asked, his voice gentle.
"Great," you replied, a genuine smile gracing your lips. "I'm finally happy the truth is out. It's a relief to have that weight lifted."
When you arrived at your house, you invited him in. "I'll make us some dinner," you said, heading towards the kitchen. "Nothing fancy, but I thought we could celebrateā€¦ the end of this chapter."
He nodded, grabbing a beer from the refrigerator. While you busied yourself in the kitchen, he browsed your bookshelves, pulling out a few volumes and flipping through the pages. He was drawn to your writing, the dark, sensual worlds you created. He sat on the sofa, a book of your poetry open in his hands, lost in your words, as the sounds of you preparing dinner drifted from the kitchen.
Over a quiet dinner, you talked. He asked about your past, about your writing, about your new book. "I'm working on something new," you said, a thoughtful look on your face. "But I need some inspiration." You looked at him, a playful glint in your eyes. "Think you could be my muse tonight, Detective?"
He grinned, his eyes meeting yours. "I think," he said, his voice low and husky, "I could definitely manage that. I've been thinking about this all day."
After dinner, he settled on the sofa, watching as you moved with a newfound confidence. You shed your clothes slowly, deliberately, until you stood before him in black lace bra and panties, your skin gleaming in the soft light. You turned your back to him, offering him a tantalizing view of your curves.
"Rip it off, I want you to ravage me, Detective," you purred, your voice a silken invitation.
You sat down on his lap, your bare skin teasing him, your movements slow and deliberate, grinding your ass against his groin.
"Fuck yes," he breathed, his hands reaching for you, his eyes burning with undisguised lust. He gently unfastened your bra, his fingers brushing against your nipples, sending shivers down your spine. Leaning in, he kissed the nape of your neck, his breath warm against your skin.
"You smell incredible," he murmured, his teeth nipping at your flesh. With a swift, controlled movement, he ripped off your panties, his eyes devouring your nakedness. "I've been waiting all day for this," he rasped.
"Use me, Detective. I'm yours to command." you whispered.
He cupped your breasts in his hands, his thumbs teasing your nipples, before lifting your hips and pulling you closer. "You're going to be a good girl and do exactly what I tell you." he says.
In one smooth motion, he thrust into you, filling you completely. You were already wet, slick with anticipation, and he stretched you perfectly, his size a perfect fit.
"Oh, Yess.." you gasped, your nails digging into his knees.
"That's it. I'm your slut Detective. Use me like one."
You were turned with your back to him, your bare skin pressed against his, the heat of his body radiating through you. He grabbed your ass cheeks, his fingers digging into your flesh as you bounced on his lap, teasing him with every movement. "I'm going to fuck you so hard you'll see stars." he growled.
He pulled you up, his grip tightening on your waist. "Stand up," he commanded, his eyes burning with desire.
You stood, your legs slightly shaky, and turned to face him. He kissed you roughly, possessively, his lips crushing against yours. Then, with a swift movement, he pinned you down onto the sofa, his body hovering over yours.
He entered you slowly, deliberately, watching as his cock inch by inch slid inside your slick, wet pussy. "I can't get enough of this pussy," he breathed, his voice a low rumble. "It's fucking addictive."
"Fuck yes, I know that." you moaned, your hips lifting to meet his thrust. He gripped your hands, his fingers digging into your skin as he started to fuck you harder, deeper.
"Oh, god," you gasped, your nails digging into his back. "Don't stop. Keep going.. You feel so good inside me."
"You're going to be screaming my name all night long." he rasped, his thrusts becoming more frantic, more desperate. "You're going to be sore, marked, and completely mine."
He started rubbing your clit with his right hand, his fingers teasing and tormenting you, sending waves of pleasure crashing through your body. "You like this, don't you?" he murmured, his voice laced with a delicious cruelty. "You like it when I touch you like this. Your pussy is so fucking tight. I can feel you clenching around me."
"Yes," you whimpered, your breath coming in ragged gasps. "Fuck...Make me come, Detective. I want you to make me scream."
He pushed his full weight down on you, grinding his hips against yours, feeling your release dripping down his cock and balls, onto your thighs, onto his lower tummy. He was buried deep inside you, his cock throbbing against your G-spot. As he came inside you, his body shuddered with release, his groan mingling with your own cries of pleasure.
"Fuck," he gasped, his voice thick with passion. "You're so fucking tight. I'm going to cum again, just from being inside you." Your juices mixed with his, creating a hot, slick mess.
"You're so fucking amazing," he whispered, his voice thick with emotion. He pulled you into a tight embrace, his arms wrapping around you possessively. "You're everything I've ever wanted. You're my obsession."
You clung to him, your heart pounding against his. He was so gentle now, his touch so tender, a stark contrast to the raw passion that had just consumed you.
He kissed you softly, his lips lingering on yours.
"I love you," he murmured, his voice filled with a tenderness that made your heart melt.
"I'm going to fuck you like this every night, for the rest of our lives. And I'm going to enjoy every single second of it."
"And I'm going to enjoy every single second of being yours," you whispered back, your voice husky with desire. "I'm going to tease you, torment you, make you crave me even more."
He pulled you close, his arms wrapping around you, holding you against his chest. He kissed your forehead, his lips lingering there for a moment.
"I want to be with you, for the rest of my life" he murmured, his voice thick with emotion.
You smiled, a slow, knowing smile that sent a shiver down his spine.
"Are you sure, Detective?" you asked, your voice a soft purr. "Because when you become mineā€¦ you're mine for life. I'll own you, body and soul."
"I think I love you, Tim. Butā€¦ if any other woman even thinks about trying to take you away from meā€¦she might just end up dead."
He laughed, a low, rumbling sound that vibrated through your body. "You're my goddess," he said, his eyes filled with adoration, "and my little devil woman, all rolled into one. I don't need anyone else. If my eyes ever wander to another womanā€¦you have my permission to kill me. If this heart ever stops loving youā€¦ it's better that I'm dead."
You leaned in and kissed him, a kiss filled with tenderness, with passion, with the promise of a lifetime together.
"I love you so much, Tim," you whispered, your voice choked with emotion. "I'm so happyā€¦ and yes, I would love to be yours."
He held you close, his grip tightening.
"I promise you," he said, his voice sincere, "I will never give you a reason to doubt my love for you. You're the only woman I've ever truly loved. You're my everything."
The rest of the night was spent in a haze of love and tenderness. You talked, you laughed, you whispered secrets to each other, sharing your dreams, your fears, your hopes for the future. He held you in his arms, his touch gentle and loving, and you knew, with a certainty that settled deep in your soul, that you had found your forever. You were his, and he was yours, and nothing, not even death itself, could ever change that.

Tumblr media
Art Donaldson is a patient guy. He's nice, understanding, empathetic. It's something he prides himself on, lots of guys on campus are pricks, but not him. He's "the sweet blonde guy that plays tennis, like, really well!" according to most people who've met him.
That being said, he's not blind to the fact that you frustrate him to the point of wanting to shout himself hoarse and rip his hair out.
It's been a while since he and Patrick met you for the first time at the Open, and Art has been through hell and back about a million times over by now.
He still so vividly remembers watching you step onto the court, the almost visceral reaction he had. The crowd was cheering and clapping nearly as loud as they were for Tashi. There were even a few signs made in support of you scattered throughout the stands. Big poster boards plastered with your name and your winning streak and pictures of you playing, tennis balls and rackets drawn from markers decorating them.
It was obvious you were a favorite, and it was more than obvious how much you lived for it.
Smiling and waving to the crowd, fully basking in their respect and adoration. You were nearly glowing, Art couldn't take his eyes off you. He could tell that Patrick was thinking the same thing, if the way his thigh tensed up where it was plastered against Arts was any hint, his breath slightly catching as you started stretching.
"Goddamn..." Patrick had muttered under his breath. Art could distantly see his hand clench on top of his thigh when you bent over to tighten your laces. He always tries to be less shameless than Patrick but heā€™d be lying if he said he wasnā€™t just as affected by you, fighting the urge to shift in his seat.
After you and Tashi walked up to the net with matching smiles and shook hands for a little longer than usual, it was time to start. Art watched as both of you got in position on the opposite ends of the court. Both of your faces lost the easy-going, excited expressions youā€™d shared when you first walked out, hardening in concentration as Tashi got ready to serve.
Patrick and Art openly gawking at the two of you would have been embarrassing if it wasnā€™t so fucking justified.
You and Tashi made magic happen on that court.Ā 
It was powerful hit after powerful hit. Tashiā€™s backhand was out of this world, your overhand was a monster. Every rally, every volley, every serve was pure perfection. Art had never seen tennis played like that before in his life, he couldn't help but get sucked into your world the longer he watched.
The match was close, completely neck-and-neck throughout each set, neither of you willing to give an inch to the other. Tashi won by a single point, hardly wasting any time before she vaulted over the net to come barreling into your open arms, crashing into you so hard it knocked the two of you to the ground.
You both grasped at each other like lifelines on the hard concrete of the court as the announcer crowned Tashi the 2006 girlā€™s U.S Open champion.
Art let out a long breath and deflated a little deeper in his seat. His mind racing, he didnā€™t need to look at Patrick to know he felt the same. They sat in silence like that until the stands were practically empty.Ā 
ā€œWhat time did you say the party was again?ā€
Art pointedly ignored Patrick staring at him with a shit-eating grin on his face, stretching his arms out in feigned nonchalance. Patrick just snorted, shaking his head and squeezing Artā€™s thigh.
That was then, now Art sits across from you in the Stanford dining hall at the same table you two eat lunch at everyday, trying to stay cool as you complain about the latest biology lab youā€™re doing.Ā 
Heā€™s hardly listening to you, too busy trying his best to not glare too obviously at the hoodie you're wearing. One that he knows for a fact belongs to Patrick. You must have kept it the last time he was in town. The Nike swoosh embroidered to the front almost mocks him. Art puts his water down with a little more force than necessary.
Patrick and you beingā€¦whatever the two of you are now was something he tried his best to be okay with in the beginning.
Patrickā€™s his best guy, Art should have been so stoked that you were into him as much as he was into you when the two of them walked up to congratulate you and Tashi at the Adidas party. Only being able to steal you away from the house after you said your goodbyes to Tashi and her parents, inviting you to join them down at the beach.
It was obvious you were playing into Patrickā€™s attempts to get in your pants. Not blushing or averting your eyes shyly when he blatantly checked you out, throwing out smart comebacks to his sleazy lines, looking up at him through your lashes and biting your lip.
It would have been soul-crushing if Art wasnā€™t such a good friend. So, he stifled the rising feelings of jealousy and plastered a smile on his face as he watched Patrick shamelessly flirt with you.
It wasnā€™t like it was your fault. Art didnā€™t come on as strong as Patrick, he never did. Plus it wasnā€™t like he and Patrick had talked about who could try and score with you prior to the party, anything was fair game.
Besides, you were nice enough to Art that night. Chatting about college admissions and smiling at him over your coke bottle. Sure, it stung seeing you laugh at Patrickā€™s stupid jokes while the two of you smoked off the same cigarette, but there was nothing he could do about it.
You choosing Patrick had nothing to do with him. Everyone always chose Patrick, he was used to it by now.
At least he thought he was, but the longer it was just you and him, the more angry he felt each time Patrick would visit and steal all your attention. It wasnā€™t just jealousy or frustration anymore; it was a gnawing, consuming rage that twisted his insides every time he saw you light up around Patrick.
Patrick didn't fucking deserve you. You were too good for him. Nothing like all the easy, ditsy girls he fucked his way through at the academy. You were special, unlike any girl Artā€™s ever met. Patrick would just take you for granted. He'd grow tired of you, completely dismissing you when he got bored enough. Any day now he'd call Art to spill on his latest hookup with some chick he met on tour.Ā 
But Art didnā€™t want to sit around and wait for that day to come. He couldnā€™t stand the thought of you being hurt by Patrickā€™s inevitable indifference. The idea of you, heartbroken and discarded, made his blood boil. You deserve more than that. You deserve someone who sees you for who you truly are, not just a trophy.Ā 
Art knows he could be that person for you if youā€™d give him a chance, if for once youā€™d look at him instead of Patrick. He just has to find a way to get you to understand that.
ā€œPat texted me this morning,ā€ you say from across the table, boredly poking at your pasta. ā€œHeā€™s gonna be here later this week, says he wants to go see 30 Days of Night. You and Tashi should come with us.ā€
Art hums noncommittally, not looking at you as he takes another bite of his salad. You do this a lotā€“ extend invites to Art and Tashi when you and Patrick go out.
Art knows you think youā€™re being nice by trying to make them feel included, but getting invited usually means having to watch Patrick touch you and kiss you and walk around with his hand in your back pocket.
Artā€™s fork stabs into his salad roughly. He takes a slow breath, trying to calm the emotions starting to swirl inside him. ā€œYeah, sure,ā€ he says eventually, forcing a smile. ā€œSounds fun.ā€
He sneaks a look at you from under his lashes. Youā€™re already looking at him, brow raised at his clipped tone. ā€œYou donā€™t have to come if you donā€™t want to.ā€
Art shakes his head, waving a hand dismissively. ā€œNo, no, itā€™s fine. Iā€™ll be there.ā€
ā€œOkay,ā€ you say slowly, still watching him with a hint of skepticism. ā€œAre you alright? Youā€™ve been weird all day.ā€
Art lets out a small laugh, but it sounds more sour than sweet, and finally looks up at you. You look back expectantly, concern lingering in your eyes. ā€œNothing, itā€™s justā€¦ā€ he pauses, drumming the fingers of his left hand on the table, ā€œthe fact that you two are still going out surprises me. Thatā€™s all.ā€
He regrets it as soon as he says it, words sounding way more patronizing than he wanted. His chest immediately tightens with guilt, but he doesnā€™t wince or shrink back like he normally would, just keeps his eyes on you.
Your brows furrow, a tiny frown pulling at the corners of your lips. ā€œWhat?ā€ you ask, fork stilling in your hand. ā€œWhatā€™s that supposed to mean?ā€
Art just sighs, putting his fork down and leaning towards you. ā€œI know Patrick better than you do,ā€ he says with a tiny shrug, ā€œheā€™s always had a hard time withā€¦commitment.ā€ He says slowly, searching for the right word.
You donā€™t say anything for a couple seconds, eyes scanning over his face slowly like you're examining him. Art forces himself to not start squirming under your intense, studying gaze.
You donā€™t seem to like what you find, eyes narrowing as you push your tray away from you and lean back in your seat. ā€œAre you seriously shit talking your own best friend right now?ā€
Artā€™s brow raises, that wasnā€™t the reaction he was expecting, at all. His jaw ticks in annoyance, his hand balling into a fist on the tabletop.
ā€œIā€™m not trying to shit talk him,ā€ he says calmly, voice tinged with frustration. ā€œIā€™ve just seen how things go with him. Iā€™m looking out for you.ā€
Your eyes harden, disbelief mingling with irritation. ā€œSo, what? You think you know whatā€™s best for me or something? Are you my keeper now?ā€
That pisses Art off, now youā€™re just being an asshole. His brows furrow, arms crossing in front of his chest defensively. ā€œThatā€™s not what I meant and you know it.ā€ He says, tone harder than before.
You scoff, anger spilling over your face. ļæ½ļæ½Well what the fuck do you mean then, Art? Because you dancing around whatever it is you obviously want to say is really starting to piss me off.ā€
Irritation flares in Artā€™s chest, piercing and sudden. He swallows it down, breathing out his nose slowly to try and calm himself. The air between the two of you is tense now.
Youā€™re loud enough that a few people sitting at tables nearby start to quiet down, discreetly trying to listen in.
ā€œPatrick doesnā€™t love you.ā€ Art says spitefully, his fingers grip the muscle of his arms tighter. Itā€™s childish, but he doesn't care.
Your eyes widen, clearly caught off guard. You recover quickly, letting out a disbelieving laugh as you push away from the table with a harsh scrape of your chair. "Excuse me?" Your voice cuts through the air, sharp and incredulous.Ā Ā 
He stays silent, letting the weight of his words hang heavy in the air. Your eyes narrow, searching his face for any sign of retreat, but Art meets your gaze head-on, jaw set stubbornly.
You stand with your arms crossed over your chest as you stare down at him. ā€œWhy are you telling me this? Why do you care if Patrick loves me or not?ā€
Why do you care? The question makes his heart drop down to his stomach. Dread mixes with the anger in his chest. This wasnā€™t how this was supposed to go, he doesnā€™t want to make a scene in the middle of the dining hall. Youā€™re just being so difficult.
Youā€™re jumping to defend Patrick, not even trying to hear him out, just like you always do. Still refusing to give Art the attention he deserves. Itā€™s fucking infuriating.
ā€œIā€™m just saying,ā€ he says, voice distant and cold, ā€œhe hasnā€™t been in love with you for a while. Heā€™s told me.ā€Ā 
Itā€™s a lie, heā€™s hardly spoken to Patrick recently, but heā€™s in this now. He may as well go for broke, he always plays to win after all.Ā 
Your face contorts grimly, another disbelieving laugh punches itā€™s way out your chest. You donā€™t seem to notice the amount of heads turned in your direction, or maybe you just donā€™t care. ā€œOh, heā€™s told you that has he?ā€ you parrot back mockingly, head cocked to the side as you stare daggers at him, ā€œThatā€™s fucking bullshit Art!ā€
Art clenches his fists, jaw flexing in anger. Heā€™s never seen you this mad before, never expected to be the cause of it. But at the same time heā€™s fucking angry too. Angry at you. Angry at Patrick. Angry at himself.
His eyes narrow, holding your own heated gaze without backing down because if there's one thing he hates most, it's losing. ā€œYou donā€™t get it do you?ā€ He mutters quietly, shaking his head in dismay.Ā 
Your jaw tightens, eyes blazing as you lean forward, bracing your hands on the table to get up in his face. He can smell the familiar fruity sweetness of your perfume.
ā€œWhatā€™s there to get? The only thing Iā€™m getting right now, is a front row seat to you being a vindictive little prick.ā€ You bite out, breath fanning over Artā€™s face. ā€œWho even said I wanted Patrick to be in love with me? Who said I gave a fuck about any of that?ā€ You question sternly, brows furrowed as you scowl at him.
Art scoffs loudly, his face twisting in disgust as he rolls his eyes. His blood boils at having to sit here while you bitch him out. He wants to strangle you, to take you by your shoulders and shake you so that youā€™ll listen.
To make you see what he sees. To make you love him. ā€œPlease,ā€ he hisses through gritted teeth, shifting so heā€™s leaning across the table just as you are, his eyes dark. ā€œEveryone wants Patrick to love them. Everyone wants his attention. You want it.ā€
You just blink at him, taken aback by his outburst. You stare at him, not budging as your eyes scan over his face for a second time. And there it is. Thereā€™s that glimmer of attention, that hint of acknowledgement of him.
The heavy look of rage taking over your features, the bite in your tone, itā€™s what Artā€™s wanted for months. Your undivided attention.
After a few tense seconds you just laugh, shaking your head in disbelief. ā€œYou might be the worst fucking friend in the world.ā€ You say simply, like you're reading off this week's forecast.
Maybe he is.
Art can feel the heat rising to his cheeks in anger, in embarrassment, in hatred, in lust. The way youā€™re looking at him makes something stir deep in his gut. His heartbeat echoes in his ears.
Youā€™re so mad, but in that youā€™re giving him a hint of your attention, giving him the time of day, and youā€™re still fucking defending Patrick. Rage seethes in him, hot like fire. Yet even in this moment, youā€™re the only person that really matters. The intensity of your gaze pulls at something raw inside him.
ā€œHe doesnā€™t deserve you.ā€ His voice is lower, pinched with thinly veiled frustration threatening to boil over.
"And you think you're the expert on what I deserve, Art? Last time I checked, your own love lifeā€™s track record isn't exactly stellar."
Itā€™s a low blow, bringing up how Tashi rejected him a while back. He hadnā€™t told you about that, so Tashi must have. He laughs, but his lips are pulled up in a sneer.
"Donā€™t start deflecting,ā€ Your name falls from his lips sharply, stabbing through the thick tension in the air. ā€œThis isn't about me, it's about you. You're setting yourself up to get hurt, and I'm just trying to warn youā€“"
"Yeah, well, I didn't ask for your fucking opinion," you snap, "maybe you should focus on your own damn problems.ā€
Artā€™s jaw tightens further, his frustration finally getting the best of him. "Fine, do whatever the hell you want. But don't come crying to me when Patrick does what he always doesā€” leaves you for someone new."
You stare at him incredulously, shock and anger warring in your expression. "I can't believe you just said that."
"Yeah, well," Art mutters bitterly, looking away. "Believe whatever you want. Just know that heā€™s playing with your feelings.ā€
You huff, throwing your arms out at your sides in frustration. ā€œWhat fucking feelings Art!ā€ you say loudly, not quite shouting but youā€™re getting there. ā€œSure, Patrick and I fuck but that doesnā€™t mean weā€™re playing husband and wife with each other!ā€Ā 
Youā€™re definitely way too loud, voice steadily rising in volume the more you talk. Seemingly not caring about whoā€™s around to hear you yell about fucking Patrick. ā€œIn fact,ā€ you continue, shaking an accusatory finger at Art, ā€œyouā€™re the one trying to get in my head and play with my feelings, you fucking hypocrite.ā€
His mind whites out, filled with blinding jealousy all over again. He wants you so fucking badly, he could be everything you needed. Why canā€™t you see that? How could you be so blind? How could you not see that Patrick was using you, just like he used everyone else?
Art leans further across the table as you speak, his hands coming up to grip the edges of it tightly. ā€œYouā€™re so fucking naive, you know that?ā€ He snaps in a biting tone. Itā€™s harsher than heā€™s spoken to you during this whole fight.
Your voice drips with sarcasm as you lean forward, eyes locked on his. "Oh, well forgive me for not seeing the truth according to Saint Art."
ā€œSo fucking naive.ā€ He repeats, spitting the words across the table meanly.
ā€œAnd youā€™re a fucking pussy.ā€ You bite back, leaning in even closer so Art can see your lips form around the words maliciously. You sway close enough that the tip of your nose bumps against his. His breath catches, going ragged in his throat. Youā€™re so close to him. He can smell you, can practically taste you on his tongue.
He wants to take you in his arms, to hold you and kiss the anger off your face. The only thing keeping him from lunging out is the way you look. Your whole body is rigid with anger, eyes dark and cheeks flushed. Youā€™re so beautiful. He has to remind himself that heā€™s supposed to be pissed at you and fight the urge to pull you in and really taste you.
But then you're backing away completely, ā€œI wonā€™t waste my time on stupid shit like this,ā€ you mutter, turning to pick your bag up off the floor. ā€œThanks for lunch, Art.ā€ You say sarcastically, not even looking at him as you turn on your heel and walk towards the dining hallā€™s exit before he can respond.
Artā€™s heart lurches forward at your words, not with pain, but with want. He watches you leave, the regret quickly setting in once youā€™re not here to play into his resentment. It hits him like a cold shiver, he wants to feel good for speaking his mind, for telling you how it is. Maybe on some level he does, but itā€™s overshadowed by how awful he feels.
Art stares down at his unfinished salad, appetite gone. He sighs loudly, standing up to toss his own tray plus the one you left behind. He tries his best to ignore the stares he can feel following him as he walks out.
įƤ
Art wallows in misery for the rest of the day, skipping the practice he had planned after lunch. He just locks himself in his dorm, laying on his mattress and staring at the ceiling as he replays the fight in his mind. Replaying every word you said to him, every word he said back to you, every angry look you gave him.Ā 
He thinks about texting you a thousand times. Typing and deleting different messages until he eventually gave up. He knows youā€™re beyond pissed, that him reaching out will only piss you off more and he wants to try and salvage this before you completely shut him out. The thought of losing you is why he never wanted to bring it up in the first place, regret settles in his gut like a ball of lead.
And yet, there was a small part of him that hoped, despite the shit show in the dining hall, that youā€™d see the quiet care he showed, the way he was there for you, and choose him for once. But hope was a dangerous thing, and Art wasnā€™t sure how much longer he could hold out.
Hours go by with nothing from you, itā€™s the longest youā€™ve gone with talking since the semester started. He forced himself to study for his biology final in a lazy attempt at taking his mind off you. Youā€™d usually be in his dorm room right now, all spread out on his bed like itā€™s your own as you talk his ear off about something like your asshole psychology professor.Ā 
The longer he sits at his desk the longer the ache in his chest consumes him. Art would do anything to know what you were thinking right now. Heā€™d grovel for your attention, heā€™d fall to his knees and beg and plead if thatā€™s what it took for you to forgive him.Ā 
Heā€™s getting ready for bed when his Blackberry pings on his night stand, itā€™s almost embarrassing how fast he rushes over to it. His heart stutters in his chest when he sees it's a text from you. Itā€™s only two words, a simple ā€˜come overā€™.Ā 
Artā€™s never moved faster in his life, rushing out of his room with only his phone, wallet, and keys.Ā 
He makes it to your dorm in record time, nearly sprinting across campus to hurry up and get there before you change your mind. All that needy rushing completely vanishes once heā€™s actually outside your door.Ā 
Art hesitates, staring at the little door decals taped on with your name written on them in black sharpie. He rests his ear against the door, but he canā€™t hear anything. He worries his bottom lip between his teeth, brows pinched as he wrestles with himself.
ā€œCā€™mon Donaldson, donā€™t be such a little bitch.ā€ Patrickā€™s voice rings out in the back of his mind. He takes a breath and knocks on the door.
Barely a second passes before itā€™s swinging open and you're there, gripping the front of his shirt and dragging him inside your room. Art's back hits the closing door with a thud, his breath catching in surprise. His hands shoot out to brace on either side of the door, knocking over a racket resting on the wall. Everything he brought with him falling to clatter onto the wood floor loudly.
You look rough, eyes slightly red and puffy like you may have been crying. Your breath comes out in short, quick bursts as you stare up at him. All the anger he swore would come rushing back when he saw you drains out of him in a second.
His face softens, a tiny frown on his lips. "Hey, whatā€™s going on?" he asks, voice a mix of confusion and worry. His hands come up to hover near your hips, hesitating at the last second, not sure if he should touch you.
Without a word, youā€™re flying forward while yanking him down by his shirt. Closing the distance between the two of you with your lips crashing against Artā€™s. Itā€™s so sudden, so completely out of left field, that Art stumbles forward a few steps, hands gripping your hips tightly to steady himself.
Itā€™s almost pathetic how easily he kisses back, not even hesitating. Flashes of Patrickā€™s face go through his mind as he eagerly reciprocates, not stopping him from pulling your hips flush against his. He definitely might be the worst friend in the world, all the loyalty he felt to Patrick tossed out of his mind the second your tongue slides past his lips.
Itā€™s intense, thereā€™s no romance or gentleness about it. Your lips move against his almost violently, all the aggression and anger from earlier still very much there. Heā€™s never kissed a girl like this before, itā€™s not how he imagined his first kiss with you would go. Heā€™s still getting hard in his sweats anyway.
Your tongue fucks into his mouth roughly, it reminds him of the time he and Patrick kissed when they were still at the academy for ā€œpracticeā€. He moans loudly into your mouth, letting you dominate the kiss and just trying his best to keep up. Your teeth clack against his roughly, biting down on his bottom lip hard enough to have him whining embarrassingly high and needy.Ā Ā 
ā€œItā€™s over with Patrick,ā€ you breathe hotly, slick lips brushing his with every word. ā€œI want you to fuck me.ā€
Jesus fucking Christ.
Artā€™s dick feels hard enough to burst out of his sweats by sheer force, but he pauses, pulling away from you with a hesitant look. "I-" he tries, voice cracking slightly. He can feel his cheeks starting to burn as he clears his throat. "I don't think that's a good idea. It's so soon, and I mean you're obviously going through something and I don't want to take advantage of yo-"
An incredulous laugh bursting from your lips effectively cuts Art off, your eyes roll to the ceiling in dry amusement. ā€œGod, Art.ā€ you scoff, both hands pushing off his chest to create space between the two of you. He keeps his hands on your hips, the thin material of your bottoms bunching in his grip. ā€œYouā€™re such a fucking little bitch, you can kiss me but you wonā€™t fuck me? What is it? You scared of Patrick or something?ā€
The taunt hits Art like a slap across the face, he freezes for a second before disbelief gives way to white hot rage. You just stare up at him smugly, lips red and wet. Art bares his teeth, using his strong hold on your hips to force you backwards until your knees hit the edge of your bed.
ā€œYouā€™ve pushed me and pushed me and pushed me,ā€ he spits, glaring down at you as he speaks. ā€œActing like such a fucking brat. You want me to fuck you?ā€ He pushes you back onto the bed roughly, covering your body with his, letting his weight sink you deeper into the mattress. ā€œFine, Iā€™ll fuck you.ā€
Art sits up, ripping his shirt over his head and tossing it somewhere behind his shoulder. Your greedy eyes rake down the toned muscle of his torso, hands coming up to lightly scratch your nails over his abs. His breath hitches, goosebumps breaking out all over his skin. He grabs your wrists, forcing them down and pinning them to the bed. ā€œNo touching.ā€ he chastises, leaning down to bite the skin of your neck roughly. Sucking hard enough that heā€™ll definitely leave a mark.Ā 
His dick twitches against the inside of his sweats at the thought of you walking around campus with his claim staked on you, at the thought of Patrick, if he was still coming down, seeing it and immediately knowing who left it there. He slides his knee between your legs, he can feel the warmth radiating from your pussy, can feel how youā€™re so wet itā€™s soaking through your bottoms and onto his thigh.Ā 
You hiss at the sting of his teeth, trying to squeeze your wrists out of his strong grip. Your thighs tighten around his knee, hips bucking up against him. ā€œAre you gonna fuck me anytime soon, Art? Or do I need to find someone else thatā€™s not all talk?ā€
Art chuckles darkly, nipping at the sensitive skin of your collarbones. ā€œYou can bitch and moan all you want, but I havenā€™t even touched you yetā€“ā€ he leans forward to whisper directly into your ear, ā€œā€“And youā€™re still fucking soaked for me anyway.ā€ He drags his tongue along the shell of your ear in a dirty stripe.Ā 
You let out a keen, pretty and high, grinding your hungry pussy against his knee faster. He lets go of your hands, grabbing your hips and flipping you onto your stomach. Tossing you around like itā€™s nothing, just manhandling you.
ā€œGod,ā€ he groans, big hands coming up to knead the meat of your ass, spreading it lewdly making you moan softly. ā€œYouā€™re so fucking hot.ā€ He whispers, words falling from his lips like he couldnā€™t hold them in any longer.
Art keeps one hand tight on your hip, the other fumbling with the drawstring of his sweats so he can push them down to finally free his aching dick. Letting it spring out to slap up onto his bare stomach, trailing a thin line of pre-come across his abs.Ā 
You squirm under him, feet kicking out as you struggle in his hold. Your head craning over your shoulder and zeroing in on his dick, hard and red and leaking. ā€œYou came over here with no panties on, Donaldson?ā€ you taunt, pushing your ass back onto the sensitive length of his erection. ā€œHow sluttyā€“ā€Ā 
ā€œShut up,ā€ he snaps harshly, but his dick twitches where itā€™s dragging over the seam of your ass. Heā€™s leaking like a faucet, leaking like a girl, all over your light green plaid bottoms. It strikes him suddenly, how familiar they look. He stares at the worn down fabric covering your ass, at the way his pre-come stains the material darker, at the way they hang too low on your hips, too big for you.Ā 
ā€œAre theseā€¦are these Patrick's,ā€ he asks slowly, voice low as his fingers skim over the soft material. You chuckle wickedly, wiggling your hips back teasingly.Ā 
ā€œYeah, they are,ā€ you say, sliding your ass back and forth over Artā€™s dick. ā€œYouā€™re leaking jizz all over your best friend's pants, Art.ā€
Art groans loudly, chin dropping to his chest as hips jerk against your ass involuntarily. A full body shiver wracks through him like lightning, eyes screwing shut as he tries not to come all over your ass. ā€œShitā€“ā€ he bites out sharply, voice rough and scratchy. He can distantly hear you laughing at him through all the white noise buzzing in his ears.
He breathes out through his nose, willing himself to calm down. He needs to be in control for once, needs to teach you a lesson for ignoring him for so long.
Artā€™s hands come up to the waistband of yourā€“ Patrick'sā€“ pants, fingers digging underneath the loose material and forcefully yanking it down along with your panties, only pulling them down to your mid-thigh. You yelp in surprise, hands gripping the sheets of your bed tightly.Ā 
ā€œI need to get inside you, right fucking now.ā€ he rumbles thickly, flipping you onto your back again. He needs to see your face when he fucks you for the first time, needs to burn it into his mind forever.
ā€œFuck yes,ā€ you reply eagerly, arms coming up to circle around his shoulders. ā€œFinally.ā€
Art doesn't reply, eyes fixed on your bare pussy, so fucking wet and shining underneath the shitty ceiling light of your dorm. His mouth waters, he wants to drop to his stomach and eat you out until you're shaking and squirting all over his face. His dick drools at the thought, but heā€™ll have to wait. He needs to fuck you.
He takes his dick in his hand, dragging it through the silky skin of your soaked folds. He spreads your wetness around your clit, rubbing the leaking tip over you back and forth teasingly. You whine, thighs starting to shake on either side of him. He drags his dick back down to your clenching hole, lining up and slowly sinking inside the tight, wet heat.
Art doesnā€™t give you any time to adjust to the thick head of his dick breaching your tight hole, burying himself to the hilt inside of you with a sharp thrust.Ā 
ā€œFuck!ā€ you cry out, legs coming up to wrap tightly around his hips, digging your heels into his lower back. ā€œShit, fuck youā€™reā€“ God, you're so fucking deep.ā€
ā€œIā€™m going to use your fucking pussy however I want,ā€ Your name falls from his lips, dirty and blistering. ā€œbecause itā€™s the least I deserve for putting up with your bullshit for so fucking long, and youā€™re going to be good and lay there and take it.ā€ He drives his point home with a mean thrust of his hips.
ā€œFuck you, Art.ā€ you mutter back, trying to keep up the bratty act even though your voice is going breathless and needy.
Art doesnā€™t ease into it, pulling back only to start pounding into your pussy ruthlessly. Sharp slaps of his hips stinging your ass each time he drives back in, your eyes roll back in your head, slack lips parted in pleasure as he fucks you.Ā 
Art canā€™t help but lean down to claim your mouth, kissing you a little too sweetly for the moment. He canā€™t help it, not when youā€™re under him making the sweetest noises, letting him fuck your perfect fucking pussy like he owns it. God.
ā€œFuck, fuck, fuck, fuck,ā€ Art growls, breaking the kiss to rest his sweaty forehead against yours. ā€œYouā€™re so fucking, tight. Feels so fuckingā€“ shit, so fucking good.ā€ His hips speed up, desperately rutting into you.
ā€œArt,ā€ you whine, nails scratching down his back hard. ā€œIā€™m so close, fuck Iā€™m so closeā€“ keep going, donā€™t stop, donā€™t stop, donā€™t stopā€“ā€
He cuts off your rambling with a kiss, groaning at the way his name sounds getting fucked out of your mouth. The loud squelch your pussy makes each time he buries himself back inside has his ears burning, he can feel you soaking the skin of his thighs with every thrust.
ā€œWanna feel your tight pussy milk me dry,ā€ he grinds out through gritted teeth, picking up his pace. ā€œFuck, Iā€˜m gonna come, Iā€™m gonna fucking come.ā€ He ruts into you harder, splitting you open with every thrust. The skin of your ass turning red and raw from how hard heā€™s giving it to you.Ā 
Your hands come up to bury themselves in his hair, tugging sharply to make him look at you. ā€œInside,ā€ you pant, eyes glazed over and wild, ā€œcome inside me Art, please. Iā€™m on the pill you can, you can come inside me.ā€ Your legs tighten their hold on his hips, ankles locking snugly over his lower back so he couldnā€™t even pull out if he wanted.
ā€œFuck!ā€ Art shouts your name hoarsely, hips stuttering as he unloads in you. Hot come spraying the walls of your pussy. You let out a broken moan, your whole body shaking as you come with him. Your pussy chokes his dick so tightly, gripping him like a vice, milking him.
Art tilts his head up, catching your lips with his to greedily swallow down all your moans. He keeps going, shallow thrusts of his hips working you through the aftershocks of your orgasm until youā€™re kicking at his back, whining at him to stop. He collapses on top of you, his sweaty skin sticking to the fabric of your shirt.Ā 
Itā€™s quiet for a while, the two of you silently trying to catch your breath. Your hands come up to his head, sliding into the messy strands of his hair. ā€œItā€™s pretty late now,ā€ you say slowly, nails scratching against his scalp softly. ā€œYou couldā€¦you could stay here if you want.ā€
Art hides the wide grin breaking out on his face in your chest, arms coming up to circle around your waist. ā€œYeah, that sounds good.ā€ He whispers back, squeezing the soft skin of your hips once.
Itā€™s only later, when youā€™ve fallen asleep on his chest, that he stares up at the ceiling lost in thought. Heā€™s too worked up to sleep, so fucking thrilled that it worked. His plan actually worked. Youā€™re his now. He looks down at you, glowing softly in the moonlight filtering through your window, deep hickeys scattered across your neck. He drags his fingers along your cheekbone, tucking a stray strand of hair behind your ear.
This is what heā€™s wanted for so long, you.
You asleep in bed with him, you curled up in his arms, you with his come steadily dripping out of your swollen pussy.
Art can hear his Blackberry start buzzing on your nightstand, lighting up with an incoming call. Even from far away he can read the name displayed on the screen. Patrick. He lets it ring.

Slasher Jealousy Scale
Warnings: Unhealthy relationships, in certain cases yandere tendencies, +18 content.
Michael Myers 3/10
Not too jealous. He usually doesn't understand the reason for those feelings. Furthermore, no one would be able to touch what he marked for him, his superhuman strength and imposing figure would be on top of anyone who dared to look in your direction. So, he would never get jealous. There's just no need.
Chucky 8/10
Completely canonical that he's a jealous bastard. Just tell him he's not man enough for you and he'll get on top of you without thinking twice forcing you to back off. The person who set his sights on you doesn't have a good destiny, obviously. In reality, it's not good to play with him, his pride as a man is too strong.
Billy Loomis 9/10
Abandonment issues become too present. He doesn't like you getting close to too many guys. If his partner knows his true nature, he will be overly controlling and possessive, he would not like his partner to get too close to friends who could be a threat to their relationship. He is quite manipulative and will use such tactics to get you to stay away from those he doesn't like.
Stu Macher 6/10
Medium level of jealousy. He doesn't like being replaced by someone else, but he won't show much of a reaction if you talk to friends who like you. Anyway, he is also popular and will interact with all types of people. However, if he sees something very noticeable, he will pull the strings underneath and that person who made him jealous will magically disappear. For the sake of the relationship, don't talk about it.
Patrick Bateman 10/10
All your attention should be directed at him. The more genuine your interest and compliments, the more he will seek your attention, so making him jealous and paying attention to someone else would be the end of it. He needs complete devotion. He won't tolerate distractions and could take care of them. Making him feel insecure indirectly is not the best option you could take. It is better to dedicate everything to him.
Jason Vorhees 10/10
He literally keeps you locked up, that is the most representative indication of the matter. He does not like those people standing over you looking at you with lust. He is the only one you need. Yes, he will take care of you and protect you. You should be calm.
Leatherface 10/10
Too insecure with himself, so he expects you to have impeccable behavior. Although luckily for you, you will not have too many moments in which he will get jealous because your only environment is his family. So you must treat them with respect and with certain limits and distance. If not, he will get frustrated. And we know his way of dealing with that.
Art The Clown 2/10
He is not jealous, everything for him is a violent game. If someone flirts with you, he will laugh and do his thing with the same energy as always. Although he won't tolerate you ridiculing him, if you flirt with someone, you will pay, but not because he gets jealous, but because he is the one who makes the rules, not you.
Jason Dean 10/10
Dependent, possessive and obsessive. He's literally a warning in and of himself. Seriously, don't flirt or let yourself be flirted with. Don't break up with him, don't walk away from him, don't stop paying attention to him. Just don't leave him, he's very jealous and won't let you go for any reason. Oh, he's also manipulative, so he'll definitely get you to walk away from that harmless guy in your class.
Alex DeLarge 2/10
He doesn't formally qualify as a slasher, but I'm including him anyway. I don't really see him as jealous, he's more of a controlling guy. He doesn't like having his first choice role in other people's lives taken away from him, he is the leader and the one who commands, but he won't get jealous of anyone, because he thinks highly of himself and is charming when he wants to be. He probably has you wrapped around his finger, soā€¦why get jealous?
Brahms 15/10
He won't let you leave the house for that reason. He doesn't want you to leave him, any outsider is a threat. You are only his, you must accept that. However, even if you accept it, he will still be jealous, because he can't help it. If you want to go out somewhere, he will wonder if it is because you want to see someone.

Philcon 2024!
Do you love Science Fiction, Fantasy, or Horror? Are you a Writer, a Gamer, a Costumer, or a Filker? Are you looking for a weekend of distraction in your life? If youā€™re in the vicinity of Philadelphia- or more specifically, Cherry Hill, New Jersey- thereā€™s an event coming up on November 22 ā€“ 24, 2024 that weā€™d love for you to come check out. If you arenā€™t already familiar with PHILCON, hereā€™s what you should know: * We started out as a literary-centric SF convention in 1936, but have grown to embrace all mediums of storytelling (movies, television, comics, podcasts, etc) as well as expanding to cover the Fantasy and Horror genres. Most of our participants are authors, and there will be Readings by them and Autograph sessions all throughout the weekend, in addition to their participation on discussion panels. * While many of our Literary panels are about SF, Fantasy, or Horror topics in general, we also have an emphasis on panels discussing the craft side and business sides of writing, for those looking to develop as authors. * One of our content tracks for the weekend is dedicated to Science & Technology itself, not just how it is used in fiction. * We will be screening several movies over the weekend, and Anime will also be shown in our Anime & Animation room at certain times. * There will be Workshops and Demos for Costuming (including "Fabric Manipulation", "How to Make Foam Armor", "Make-up for The Stage", and "A Pox on Patterns!") and Art (including "Using Alcohol Inks", "Block Printing With Your Own Designs", "How to Make A Controlled Color Palette", and "Making Wire-Wrapped Jewelry"), and if youā€™ve got an outfit you made that youā€™d like to show off on stage, weā€™ve got a yearly Costume Contest. * If you are a Filker- or just enjoy listening to other people sing and play music- Philcon has a room dedicated Filk room, and this yearā€™s Musical Guest of Honor is Cecilia Eng. As Cecilia is not often on the east coast, if youā€™d like to see her play in person, now is an excellent change to do so without flying to the other side of the country. Lynn Gold, another west-coast Filker, will also be joining us this year. There are also Concerts scheduled for Sirens & Liars, Half a Slime Devil, Brenda and Chuck Shaffer-Shiring, and Sara Henya. * Since the Gaming track moved from an upstairs suite to the ā€œGalleryā€ room on the first floor, itā€™s had the literal room to expand the number of games it can run, and weā€™ve got a bevy of them on the schedule for 2024, as well as a bank of games for you to choose from during Open Gaming hours. There's also a LARP Workshop Series being run by Spectacle INK. * Our Artist Guests of Honor for 2024 are Gina Matarazzo and Matthew Stewart. Each will be giving a presentation on our Main Stage on Saturday afternoon, as well as having their art displayed in our Art Show. * Our Principal Speaker for 2024 is MAX GLADSTONE, and we also have Nghi Vo as our Special Guest. Both will be doing Readings, Autograph Sessions, panels, and a main stage Q&A session. An interactive version of our schedule can be found HERE. While a simplified, static overview, organized by track, can be found HERE. Our LinkTree can be found HERE. We would especially value your support this year, as Philconā€™s Covid-19 policy in previous years (which required both mandatory masking and proof of vaccination in an attempt to avoid becoming a super-spreader event as several other conventions had) has led to a slow but noticeable decline in attendance. While masking in public spaces is still heavily encouraged, neither proof of vaccination nor masking are required to attend the convention in 2024. Weā€™d love your help in making this year a success, so that weā€™re in a good position to bring you all something really fantastic for our upcoming 90th anniversary. Weā€™d also love to give you a great weekend right now, for reasons I doubt we need to explain. Hereā€™s to surviving the next few years! ~ Lynati Head of Programming, Philcon 2024

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Growing up in the Undercity was especially hard for someone like you: someone who was dealing with an debilitating disability. In a city full of pollution and waste only worsened your symptoms, especially since you had no money to really manage it well, let alone treat it. Life constantly had you recovering or suffering from illnesses, one after the other. It felt like you were drowning in an ocean of chronic health issues, wave after wave of illness pushing you down just when you reached the surface to catch your breath.
One day, wandering the lanes in your ill state, you heard whispers of a man who could cure any ailment. Someone who utilized the arcane arts to cure disabilities, illnesses, anything... Of course, this lured you in. Not having any other hope in getting the help you desperately needed, you decided to look into this mysterious man.
Viktor, that's what his name was, or so you've heard as it was mumbled in the streets of the Undercity. A man who could heal all: the Machine Herald.
Eventually, you found the location of this mysterious healer in the outskirts of Zaun. Lanterns and cozy looking tents decorated the landscape, centered around a large iridescent orb in the center, which was presumably where the healer wasā€”
"Excuse me," A meek voice emerged from the front gates. As you glanced over to the voice's origin, you spotted a man standing there with his hands held together. His warm auburn hair fell in messy strands over his forehead, framing his peach face and pale eyes. He was adorned in a white robe that seemed to be some sort of fabric wrapped around his body, which was accented by the metal accessories decorated him torso and left arm. The most unique thing about this man was that he had iridescent markings encompassing his right eye, looking akin the the pattern on the orb in the cult's center.
"Yes?" You replied, slowly approaching the weary man.
"Can you... please drop your weapons? This is a place of peace, not violence." The man spoke up, gesturing to the knife that was sheathed in its holder wrapped around your thigh. Realizing what he was referring to, you immediately were put on edge. Why was this man trying to take your weapons and leave you defenseless in a city such as theirs? However, you had your other knife hidden in your boot for emergencies, so you'd be fine to lose one. Begrudgingly, you undid the buckle of the knife's holster and dropped it to the floor, much to the relief of the man before you.
"Thank you." The man spoke up, his voice tinged with a sense of relief.
"Where is this healer I have heard of?" You queried the gateman, facing him with your full body now as you adjusted your stance. To this, a small smile spread across his lips.
"Ah, you mean the Machine Herald, yes. He should be in his center. If you'd like, I can lead you there." The gateman spoke, gesturing towards that weird orb in the center. Reluctantly, you nodded, letting the gateman lead the way.
As you two walked around, you gazed at the surroundings. Men, women, children, all running amuck and looking... happy. It was sure an odd sight to experience in a place such as the Undercity. These people had those iridescent markings on their body like the gateman had. Is that the Machine Herald's healing? Did it leave that sort of marking on those he cured? They each seemed different markings in different places, all with the same iridescent look and sheen. What would yours look like?
"We are here." The gateman uttered, gesturing to the large orb before you two with two large crescent shapes bent around it like a broken halo. As his hand landed on your shoulder, you jumped a little before glancing over at him.
"He will heal you, trust in him." The man proclaimed with such assurance in his voice that you could feel it in your chest. Slowly, the man's hand slipped from your shoulder as he left you before the orb, walking back to his gate.
Your gaze left the man as you looked up at the orb before you, shocked at the sheer size of it. With much reluctance, you took your first steps up the stairs to its entrance, mentally bracing for whatever you saw through those double doors. With shaky hands and a racing heart, you reached for the handles and pushed the doors open.
As you glanced around, you were greeted with foliage in every nook and cranny of the room. Plants and trees you had never seen before with vibrant colors flooded all your senses as if trying to suffocate them with such vibrancy. Glancing up at the ceiling, you could see the holes of the orb filtering in a golden sunlight, dappling the flourishing interior with the light of the heavens. In the center of the concrete paths stood a lavish water fountain. With shaky steps, you approached it as you admired the clean looking water. You had never seen clear water like this in your lifetime, let alone in the Undercity of all places.
"Fascinating, isn't it all?" A voice with a thick Czech accent spoke up from behind you. Glancing back, you take in the sight of an individual wrapped in what appeared to be some sort of blue sheet that was doctored into a makeshift robe with the help of ivory colored belts at his waist. His umber hair laid in undulating waves, framing his pale face as the tips of his hair were a soft blonde. While his face was a pale tone, the rest of his skin from his strong jawline down was a purplish grey with raised markings that looked like billowing smoke which were adorned with golden markings. "All this beauty in a place such as this once was." He continued, walking towards you in a slow, meticulous manner. After staring at him for a moment, you cleared your throat.
"You are... the healer, correct?" You muttered, watching him carefully as you kept your guard up.
"Relax, this is not a place of malintent." The Machine Herald spoke softly, reaching out for you with a gentle hand towards your forehead. For an unknown reason, you felt calm as you gazed up at his hand, letting his fingers graze your forehead with a tender touch. A small spark filled his gaze as his fingertips glowed softly. Slowly, he pulled his hand from your forehead, looking down at you.
"Ah, I see your ailments now. Your body is weak, yet your soul is strong. The will to live you have is very admirable, despite your chronic hardships." The healer spoke, much to your confusion.
"How did you know that?" You questioned, raising a brow at his sudden knowledge of you.
"I saw it when I touched your forehead, milĆ”ÄekĀ¹," He muttered, looking at his fingertips for a moment before averting his gaze back to you. "I can heal you of your ailments, which is why you are here, correct?"
"What's the catch?" You interjected, obviously still on guard about the whole situation. It all seemed to be too good to be true. After so many years of you suffering, it can go away just like that? Viktor's face stayed stoic and unmoving.
"Ah, I see. You are afraid I am taking advantage of your vulnerabilities for my personal gain," Viktor proclaimed as he strolled past you towards the water fountain. As you looked over your shoulder, you could see him picking up a cane that was leaning against a tree near the water fountain. "I can understand why you would think that why, given how long you have suffered from having such suffering in your life from illness." He continued as his gaze shifted from his cane to you.
"So, what do you want? Money?" You questioned, turning around to fully face the Machine Herald. To this, the Machine Herald scoffed.
"Money? No, no, I have no need in monetary assets." He replied, his thick eyebrows knitted together.
"So, what is it? What's the price?" You spoke, walking towards the healer, trying to rack your brain with any possibility.
"I only request your devotion. This commune could do well with addition such as yourself." Viktor declared, holding his cane at his side firmly. Oh great, you had to join this guy's cult to get healed of your disorder. You felt a pit in your stomach when you realized his implications. You would probably have to live in this cult for the rest of your life. What would life be like? Would it be as utopic as it seemed or would things be more dystopic than Zaun?
"I don't think... I can do that." You muttered out, taking a step back. Something was off about this whole thing. Something was under the surface that you didn't know about, you were certain. To your rejection, Viktor's eyes widened softly before he tutted, offering his hand out to you.
"You are scared of the possibilities, I understand that. But I can assure you that you can trust me." The Machine Herald cooed, his purplish grey hand beckoning you to him with spindly fingers. You felt your heart race in your chest. No, you can't do it. Something was wrong. You knew something was wrong, deep down.
To this, you took two more steps backwards only to bolt out of the orb, not looking back even after the Machine Herald called out your name. Bursting through the double doors of the center, you run through the winding paths between tents and markets. Narrowly dodging cult members who all looked at you with bewildered eyes, you ran as fast as your legs could carry you. You had to get out of here. Now. Something was seriously wrong with this fucked up cult and you knew better than to get involved any further. You ran through the gates where the auburn-haired man stood, confused at your sudden escape.
You had no idea what you had just done by rejecting The Machine Herald's blessing. You had no idea what you had awoken in the healer. He knew you were gone, but he knew he would find you.

Play this to hear what music I listened to while writing this. Really put me in the writing mood.ā¤µļø
Writer note: I havenā€™t written any fanfic in forever so please bear with me if the story feels weird. I tried yā€™allšŸ˜­. Iā€™ll probably do some art soon for this and put it up on a Patreon Iā€™ll create soon where I can comfortably post more explicit art. Please feel free to share your thoughts IF youā€™re 18+ on this.
ā€œHow much did you buy?ā€ Xavier demands in shock and annoyance, his sapphire eyes slowly narrowing to slits.
Amused and intrigued by this side of Xavier youā€™ve only managed to see once in a while, you smile inside secretly. Your plan to see how much of his dark side you could provoke to come out was slowly working. Yes you knew it was toxic and manipulative on your end to stoke his ire but Gods did it get you hot and bothered when the light in his eyes dimmed and his voice grew firm, husky, Dangerous. You wanted to know what that was like when he focused that dark side of his, in bed, on YOU.
You playfully shove at his unyielding hard chest caging you in on the single sofa he had moments ago cornered you to.
ā€œMove! We canā€™t keep the delivery guy waitingā€ you whine with a soft laugh, your eyes soaking in his annoyed but still so handsome face.
ā€œNopeā€ came the firm reply and an even firmer hand sliding up yours on his chest to grip and slowly bring it back down between the two of you.
ā€œ I wonā€™t let you go, until I hear the answer I wantā€ the cold firm tone was said in a deep husky voice. The usually soft innocent expression of his was now gone and replaced with a cool almost predatory one. His already dark sapphire eyes almost black and now hooded, soft locks of his greyish hair falling into them.
Fuckā€¦ you thought eagerly. Here he was, Dark Xavier, this side of him you affectionately nicknamed.
You could feel your lower belly clench in pleasure, your pussy was damn near throbbing already.
A loud pounding at the door causes both of you to jump, Xavier startles and glances over at the door with a fierce scowl. He was distracted enough that you managed to wrench your hand out of his now loose grip and push him softly but quickly out of the way as you made a hasty escape from his cage and towards the door.
ā€œCominggg! Hold on Iā€™m coming sir!ā€
If you had glanced behind you, you would have noticed Xavierā€™s lips raise in an unnatural smile as he watched your enthusiastic figure race to the door. coming? calling another man sir and yelling about coming? he thought, his mind warping your words, you wouldnā€™t be doing that this evening unless you BEGGED and gave him the exact answer he needed to hear.
After getting your package of more Lumiere merchandise and food ordered, your next plan was getting Xavierā€™s reluctant help in setting up the Lumiere toys and cardboard cutout in your room, you positioned the cutout directly by your bed earning yourself and the innnocent cutout a heavy dark stare.
Uh ohhhhh, you thought with an inner snicker. He was slowly losing it, you could feel the heavy aura in the bedroom. Now was the time to coax him to bed and show your ā€œappreciationā€ for his help these past few days. Truthfully your injuries had healed well and you wouldā€™ve gone back to work but Xavier definitely wouldnā€™t have approved. Plus he seemed to really enjoy personally taking care of you.
You slowly strip out of the pajama bottoms and flannel top you had on, revealing the cute red lacy underwear set you had bought just for tonight.
Unfortunately the lacy panty was half drenched with your arousal but the sharp intake of breath you heard from Xavier seated on your bed made it worth keeping it on. You could feel that possessive almost hungry stare slowly sliding up your body and back down leaving you jittery and achy with anticipation.
To add more fuel to the fire you had cultivated all these few days, you pick up the handsome Lumiere ball joint doll you had managed to snag online before it sold out from your vanity and give it a quick sweet kiss on its resin cheek. ā€œGoodnight my handsome Lumiereā€ you coo at it.
A sudden low snarl from the bed almost makes you drop the doll to the hardwood floor in shock, you whip your head so fast to catch Xavierā€™s angered face you almost give yourself a crick in the neck. You slowly place the ball joint doll back on your vanity.
Now your heart is pounding because Xavierā€™s off the bed now, slowly walking towards you. His expression twisted into a faint calm smile but the energy heā€™s giving off is anything but calm.
ā€œX-Xavier?ā€ You half ask half whisper. Taking an involuntary step away from his slowly advancing figure. All of a sudden the room feels too small and not enough room to escape.
Xavier lets out a soft flat chuckle, he watches you with those deep unwavering sapphire eyes of his butā€¦his smile feels wrong, almost mocking andā€¦cruel.
ā€œAhh so you do remember my name after all, Starā€ the deep flat voice sends alarming goosebumps down your skin. Youā€™re caught off guard by the sudden temperature drop in the room and the sudden feeling of intimidation. You shuffle back another step almost reaching your bathroom door, your heart is racing, you feel that confusing mixture of sudden fear but titillation dampening your lacy panty. Your legs are shaking as you stare at that predatory animal gait still approaching you.
This was what you wanted but maybe just maybe, you had pushed him too far? Youā€™re all of a sudden not sure how far Xavier might go with you tonight.
ā€œStar? Why are you backing away from me?ā€ Xavier asks softly with faint audible amusement, his expression still the flat calm.
Heart thudding out of your chest, you immediately turn to the bathroom door intending to dart inside and slam it shut to at least get a few seconds to shake off the chill youā€™re feeling and calm down.
A large palm shoots out right past your ear and slams the door you just managed to open, violently shut.
Legs almost giving out beneath you, you shakily turn and find yourself staring up at the dark blown out pupils staring blankly down at you.
ā€œX-Xavier plea-ā€œ
All of a sudden youā€™re picked up and thrown over his shoulder, your world is upside down, head facing down at his bottom and legs while your ass is up in the air. Did he just? Manhandle you?!
As if he heard your stunned inner dialogue, A hard sting on your almost bare ass sends a shocking burn that wrings a startled squeal out of you.
XAVIER?!
Just
SPANKED ME?!
youā€™re too speechless to even try and protest before you find yourself sailing through to the bed and damn near bouncing off of it. But heā€™s there, palm pushing you back down hard.
You stare up at him, mouth dropped open in a breathless wheeze of near terror. Somehow your confused horny pussy thinks itā€™s go time and throbs with a need to be filled by this unhinged man giving you the same amused twisted smile.
Without hesitation a large hand sensually wraps around your throat and drags you up firmly to demanding lips.
Xavierā€™s kiss is domineering, possessive and utterly overwhelming. His soft lips draw out moans from you quickly enough but before you can actually start reciprocating, he sinks his teeth to your bottom lips causing you to draw back with a sudden wince. Youā€™re wide eyed, disbelief written plainly on your face. Gentle soft Xavier has definitely left the building. In front of you is exactly the man you were hoping for.
ā€œSince my little Star thinks Iā€™m harsh and cruelā€ Xavierā€™s other free hand strokes down from your heaving chest, stopping briefly to squeeze dark hard nipples, this illicits a slightly pained but aroused whimper out of your lips. He answers that with a groan of pleasure, hooded sapphire eyes soaking up your half scared half aroused expression.
ā€œI do love that look on your face Star, but I want you needy and whimpering on my dick, mind blank while I breed you in front of HIMā€ Xavier directs his cruel gaze at the cutout Lumiere board by the bed, beautiful face twisting again.
ā€œletā€™s see if Lumiere can save you then? Hmm?ā€ He looks back down at you, beneath long pale lashes the cruel gaze softens to something eager but perverse.
ā€œWait, Xavier, surely you know Lumiere-ā€œ you can barely finish your sentence before he pulls you like a ragdoll and positions you on your stomach. While you donā€™t hate this, your heart is still thudding in your chest at how quickly ā€œDark Xavierā€ showed up and how intense this actually was. Much more intense than you imagined in fact. You didnā€™t know Xavier actually had it in him to be rough like this and actually have a breeding kink to boot or even say dirty stuff in bed so effortlessly?!
" My sweet little star, you shouldn't have said that name again" he slides both hands up your back and down, hands squeezing your plump ass and massaging deeply, causing you to moan helplessly.
"I was going to show some mercy tonight and let you come after all but now-" a hard smack lands on your left butt cheek causing you to jump and attempt to wriggle away but his firm hands holds you down and steady. He rubs over the stinging ass cheek soothingly, a whisper of Soft Xavier appearing again.Ā 
You could swear there's a sweet smile on his lips as he says "but now I have to keep being harsh and cruel"
Xavier positioned you directly in front of the Lumiere cutout board, it seems very intentionally.
So this would be a ravaging, claiming in front of his alter ego Lumiere. Still moving you around like a ragdoll, both hands on your hips pull your ass up so you're in a collapsed doggy position. You tense as his hands slide down from your ass to your soaked lacy panty.
Another sharp intake of breath from him as his fingers slip past the fabric and press right against your swollen clit. "Ohhhh you're sopping wet princess" his voice is back to a low breathy moan.Ā 
"So you do like me being harsh and cruel after all? Hmm?" Firm fingers rub your clit slowly, causing you to whimper and moan into the pillow. A finger slides lower, slipping into your pussy easily, another finger joins in, then another, all knuckles deep as he massages the spot he recently discovered drove you wild since you two started sleeping together two weeks ago.
You try to hide your moans as your mouth falls open and you rock back against the thick digits fucking you.
Gods Xavier knew just how to finger you and have your mind grow fuzzy. You feel that rush of an orgasm approaching and fuck you're almost there. You rock back against his scissoring fingers harder, panting, limbs trembling, eyes squeezing shut as you cream all over his hand. "Almost there",Ā you choke out through gritted teeth.
"Oh? did I say you could cum Star?" Xavier's cold harsh voice by your ear and his swift withdrawal of his perfect fingers splashes cold water over the impending bliss.
"N-no p-please I was almost there!"Ā  you cry out in dazed confusion. Your pussy clenches on air, you're left trembling and suddenly anger rushes through you, fogging your brain, causing your mouth to say the worst thing ever. You sit up on your knees and glare frostily at the still gently smiling Xavier next to you on the bed.
" Lumiere would've let me come" you snark,Ā  victoriously waiting to see the anger on his face.
The room suddenly grows heavy in pressure and drops in temperature again. The still gentle smile is there on Xavier's soft lips, but it feels...condescending now.
"Lumiere... would make you cum? Is that so Princess?" Xavier asks gently in that low sensual voice of his, one eyebrow arched in mock surprise, a little chuckle follows the question.
You stare up at his sharp sapphire eyes and you feel that you made a deep mistake. Xavier's PISSED. Damn it! You curse your sharp reckless mouth and shuffle away from him in bed, attempting yet again to escape the consequences of your action.
You barely make it across the bed before Xavier has you pinned down beneath him swiftly, his firm hands clamping yours down over your head, you struggle beneath him, heart racing, attempting to buck him off of you, but he's immovable, straddling you. He'd always been very strong for someone that didn't have bulging muscles and didn't seem fond of working out.Ā 
You feel that difference in physical strength now and while its overwhelming, you find that this...is actually turning you on.
Then you feel it, the heavy bulge through his thinĀ grey sweatpants pressing against your groin, Xavier is raging hard and excited, there's a feverish look in his dark eyes now. His smile is smug, satisfied.Ā "You're not going anywhere Star" he leans down over you to whisper, warm lips brushing over the shell of your ear, the soft warm tip of his tongue trails up your ear and you whimper because that's one of your weak spots, your ears are particularly sensitive.
"W-wait Xavier, I'm sorry I shouldn't have said that!, Iā€™m so sorry!" You moan out, attempting to move your overstimulated ear away from his sensual touch. But he's relentless, applying the right amount of lips and tongue and now teeth as he bites your ear lobe.
You cry out, racked by a tingly orgasm that takes you suddenly. It's almost embarrassing that you're coming just from this alone.
Xavier pulls away with a smirk to admire his handiwork, eyes drinking in your shivering panting form beneath him.
"Yeah, you shouldn't have, but you did" he let's go of one of your wrists to slide his hand down to your breasts that have fallen out of the flimsy lace bra that covered it moments ago.
He tugs on your tits, twisting one nipple gently and another harshly, wringing out pleading whimpers from your lips.
He lets go and reaches down to pull out his hard throbbing dick free from its confines. The head is a ruddy broad mushroom tip slick and drooling with precum, surprisingly thick and long for someone that doesn't look like he should have such a thing attached to him.Ā 
You stare up at his lovely face tinged with red, greyish hair hanging over eyes hooded with deep arousal and his pink lips parted as he strokes his fat dick over you. The sound of his hand stroking that beautiful cock has you squirming underneath him, Gods you want it stretching your wet little pussy so bad right now.
"Xavier please, please fuck me" you beg shamelessly, eyes glued to his hand wrapped around that fat weeping dick.Ā He let's go of your other wrist to slide the sopping wet lace panty to the side, adjusting his position so the head of his dick slides up through your folds to your throbbing clit, he teases you like this while you whine and attempt to move your hips so he can slip inside. He glares at you narrowing his eyes in disapproval.
A hard hand wraps around your throat again, not hard enough to stop you breathing but enough to warn you he needs you to behave.
"You'll take whatever I give you right Star?" He asks with that twisted cruel smile back on his innocent face.Ā 
You nod desperately, at this point you'd agree to anything so long as you got his dick in you.
"There's a good girl, remember you said yes, Star"Ā 
Without hesitation he spears through your little wet hole with his dick and you both groan at the sensation. You almost arch off the bed as you gasp for air at the sudden fullness. His dick is almost too much, too full and too deep already.
Xavier lets out a deep shuddering breath, his eyes are feverish and there's an unstable look to it now.
"Since you want to cum so badly, I'll fulfill your wishes" he murmurs almost to himself, he draws out his dick through your tight grip and snaps his hip forward harshly, jolting you up the bed, you shriek as he finds that pleasurable spot inside you and presses in on it relentlessly.
The sound of flesh against flesh and hard panting fills the room. Your eyes glaze over as Xavier fucks you damn near through the bed. You feel an orgasm fast approaching and you start begging "please let me come Xavierrr please please!"Ā 
He lets out a hard short laugh, his hooded eyes glued to his cock plunging in and out of your tight wet pussy that won't let him go, his hand not wrapped around your throat whips out a vibrating bullet from Gods only knew where, pressing it against your slick swollen clit. Thereā€™s almost a sadistic light in his eyes now as he turns up the power.Ā 
a hard shudder runs through you as you try to squirm away not expecting that kind of stimulation, but he's already on you, holding you down with his body, the bright light in his eyes feverish as he watches you break down into a screaming overstimulated mess on his thick ravaging dick.
"Can Lumiere fuck you into this brainless mess Princess?" He whispers over you, gaze now hard and heavy on your slack face.
You're shaking as another orgasm accompanies the first one.
A soft slap on your clit sends you over the edge to something so intense you actually...Squirt. The orgasm is white and blinding, you don't realize you're screaming until a hand is clamped over your mouth hard.Ā 
" I don't want to hear you scream 'Gods' unless it's my name instead" Xavier sneers down at your face. He is relentless, still fucking you through this orgasm, setting an almost punishing pace, hitting your sweet spot repeatedly as you weakly attempt to buck him off of you. You didnā€™t know having an orgasm could be so unbearable. You crave it and fear it at the same time. Was this really Xavier dominating you so thoroughly?
"Fuck, your pussy is so greedy, Star, it doesn't want to let go, do you love my dick that much princess?" A ragged gasp greets your ears.
You can barely form a thought in your head, you feel like youā€™re floating out of your body, your mind is full of static and fuzzy. Xavier let's out another amused scoff down over you before shifting you closer to the Lumiere cutout board again.
This time he pulls up your legs, pressing it to your chest arranging you in an instense position that has his dick impossibly deeper. You faintly realize it's a mating press and a deep shiver runs through you. He was really planning on taking you like this, in front of his alter ego?! Dominating you completely like this?
"My little Star just tightened up? You really want me breeding you in front of your precious Lumiere?" Another condescending chuckle greets your ears.
His face is now closer to yours, his hand moves from your neck to your jaw.Ā 
"Open up your mouth and stick out your tongue princess, let's french kiss" he whispers, a command he expects you to follow while gazing down at you as his dick starts slowly pounding through your slick achy little pussy.
This position has you breathless and mind still fuzzy. You can only mindlessly obey him, sticking out your tongue as he leans over to suck it into his hot mouth, kissing you hungrily almost sucking up all the air in your lungs.
Xavierā€™s dick picks up speed, fucking into you animalistically, without mercy.
He pants, pulling away to bite the side of your neck, itā€™s sends a pleasurable shiver through you.
" Fuck I want to fill you up with my cum Star, gonna give you a creampie" he grunts, breathing harsher as he nears his own orgasm. Sapphire eyes screwed shut.
Your pussy grips him hard, a tight wet muscle massaging his dick mindlessly ravaging you almost instinctually.Ā 
"Your greedy pussy loves me doesn't it? You're trying to milk me already princess, such a sweet girl,"
You're creaming on his cock and start trying to squirm away, you feel another orgasm coming, this one threatens to cause a black out and you're instinctively terrified.Ā 
"Please I can't take it, it's too much" you blubber out shaking underneath him.
" You can take it Star and you will, relax I'll get you through it, just be good and take all I give you, thereā€™s a good girl. Just like that" Xavier grunts out, hips still pistoning faster. Dick pounding into your cunt.
" Now tell me who do you prefer? Me or Lumiere? Who's breeding this perfect -grunt- pussy right now?"Ā 
You're shaking underneath him, weak, barely able to hang on as Xavier takes you hard, deep and rough in the mating press, his determination to own you almost terrifying.
"Answer me or you won't come for a long time Star" the steel is back in his voice again, hand back on your throat, not too hard but a domineering pressure and presence.
"Y-you Xavierrr, YOUU!!" you scream out and the orgasm hits the both of you at the same time.
You black out momentarily like you knew you would, head blank.
An animal like growl comes through Xavier as his dick shoots out ropes and ropes of his thick creamy cum deep into your womb. Your slut pussy mindlessly milks his still hard cock for more.
"Hahhh fucckkk good girl, your pussy is still gulping down my cum, my sweet Star is so perfect, you want more cum don't you princess?ā€, Xavier whispers into your ear, tongue licking away the salty tears slipping down your cheeks.
Your dazed fucked out face is still so arousing to Xavier and his dick refuses to go down. So he moves your limp body, belly down and mounts you, dick back in you, plugging up the cum that still seeps out anyway. It's another mating press. He really doesn't plan on showing you any mercy tonight.
You slowly come to with Xavier moaning and murmuring sweet words into your ears, dick still buried in your cunt. He's moving slowly now, deep slow fucking that has your breath quickening as Xavier uses your pussy without any signs of stopping, fucking you senseless.
" My sweet little Star feels too good, your pussy is so honest, it wants more doesn't it? You want my cum don't you princess? I'll fill you up soon enough,the only man allowed in here is me. That grip, such a greedy little hole, Star, just for me isn't it?"Ā He pants, eyes glazed over as he ruts into you.
He picks up speed, hand now gripping your hair, pulling your head up off the pillow.
"Answer me, Just. For. Me. Isn't it?" Each word followed by a deep pounding that has you trying to run from his dick. You feel too good, too overstimulated, you don't think you can take another orgasm, it might just kill you.
"Yes Xavier, YES!!" You sob out, clawing at the rumpled bedsheets desperately. "Please I can't take another orgasm! Please no more, I can't do it!" You plead for mercy, tears in your eyes as you look back at Xavier pitifully, whimpering.Ā 
Something in him snaps some more, that brainless/fucked out look on your face, the whimpering, the tears and the begging as if he's your whole world tips him to a sudden orgasm that has him rutting his dick in you harder like an animal, he cums so hard it's almost painful for him.Ā 
The thick ropes of cum is milked out of him as you tighten your inner muscles causing him to double over and roar his release.
He collapses over you, a panting satisfied mess. Trying his best not to suffocate you, he rolls over to his side pulling you into his chest and cuddles you, soothing you, stroking a soft comforting hand down your soft silky skin. He showers you with soft placating kisses. It seems he accomplished his goal of teaching you a lesson.
You feel Xavier get up to go to the bathroom but you don't move your head to check, you're so exhausted you start sinking into deep sleep.
Xavier comes back with a warm damp washcloth and cleans you up, cuddles you again and rubs your back, whispering sweet praises into your neck. His hard glare at the Lumiere cutout board almost burns a hole through it in the dark bedroom.
You wake up mid afternoon to find Xavier staring at you with a loving look in his now actually calm soft sapphire eyes, he's sitting by the love seat sofa by your bed, flipping through a book he had been reading this past week.
You almost feel like everything that happened last night was a dream, but your achy body tells you it definitely wasn't, you might not be able to walk straight anytime soon it seems.
"You're up Star, umm I got some takeout I can warm up for you" Xavier gets up and approaches you, sitting on the bed and pulling off your head scarf he seemed to have put on you when you fell asleep, he caresses your soft cheek lovingly . Soft sweet Xavier is back, his voice is back to being lighter and carefree, eyes drinking you in possessively and sweetly.
ā€œUmmm, did I scare you last night? Was I too rough on you?ā€ Xavier worriedly asks, scratching at the back of his neck, smile sheepish.
ā€œN-no. I actually enjoyed that Xavier, truly. I just didnā€™t think youā€™d be soā€¦kinkyā€ you mutter, feeling your face grow hot at his knowing smile. You look away, glad he canā€™t see your blush so easily. But your cute physical reactions are telling. He leans over to capture your face and kiss your cheeks and throat sweetly. ā€œyouā€™re so cute my starā€ he murmurs into your skin.
You sigh and collapse back against the pillow, youā€™re hungry as hell and still tired, you're gonna be in bed for a bit longer. You remind yourself that maybe trying to bring out Dark Xavier often isn't a good idea, maybe once in a while, last night was hot as hell, you've never cum so hard in your life and been scared to orgasm again. Itā€™s justā€¦you have a feeling youā€™d probably be orgasmed to near death if you kept provoking that side of him again too soon.
"I love you Xavier" you say smiling sweetly at him. You mean it and you want to reassure him heā€™s the only man for you.
His already sweet puppy like eyes soften impossibly, "I love you too Star"Ā 
"You really are the most jealous man I know Xavier," you muse with a faint giggle.
Almost immediately something dark passes through Xavier's sweet eyes.
Uh Ohhhhā€¦
"You...know other men?" He inquires, voice tense and now low but he still maintains his smile.
You roll your eyes up at the ceiling and sigh. Gods help you.
End.
Writer note: Welp here was the brainrot in my head for Dark Xavier. Iā€™m still figuring out how to write this ml X You content. I donā€™t know if Iā€™ll do these kind of writing again or stick to using my specific MC.

ā€œAre you going to the gig tonight? Fu Xuan asks as if the answer isnā€™t obvious already.
You crane your neck back to look at her from your roost in front of your full-length mirror. Your knees dig into the carpet and the tips of your fingers are tinged with black. Youā€™ve spent the better part of the last thirty minutes attempting to perfectly smudge the smoky line of eyeliner on your lower lash line. A tube of dark, red lipstick (his color) and sticky gloss rests on the fluffy carpet beside your folded knees.
ā€œOf course.ā€ You canā€™t make yourself smile, not when your stomach is in knots. ā€œAre you?ā€
ā€œI should if you are going,ā€ she huffs, leaning against your doorframe. ā€œYou need a chaperone.ā€
(Sheā€™s probably right.)
Tumblr media
ā€œPlease tell me youā€™re joking.ā€ You grimace and turn away, unable to meet her gaze. Sheā€™s too good at reading you. ā€œIā€™ll be just fine on my own, thank you very much.ā€
ā€œ... Heā€™s playing, isnā€™t he?ā€
ā€œI mean, yeah.ā€ You rub more aggressively at the widening smears around your eyes. ā€œBut thatā€™s not the only reason.ā€
ā€œSure.ā€
ā€œItā€™s not, really.ā€ You meet her gaze with a glance in the mirror. Itā€™s hard to keep, her stare intense and full of judgmentā€” (And worry.) ā€œThereā€™s a bunch of good bands tonight. Thereā€™s a touring groupā€” all the way from Pier Point.ā€
ā€œUh-huh.ā€
ā€œYou have no faith in me, do you?ā€ You pout, keeping your voice light, and hoping it comes off as a bit of a jest.
When you finally turn to face Fu Xuan fully, she dips to sit beside you, on her own folded knees. She plucks your soon-to-be-worn lipstick off the ground and uncaps it, just long enough to see the color, before sighing and closing it once more with a pop.Ā 
ā€œNot really, no.ā€ Fu Xuan leans against your side, cheeks puffing out. ā€œNot when it comes to himā€”ā€
ā€œYou can say his name, you know.ā€ You smear chalky highlighter on your cheeks with your fingertips. ā€œItā€™s not a slur. Heā€™s just some guy.ā€
ā€œā€˜Some guyā€™,ā€ She groans. ā€œIf heā€™s really just some guy, why donā€™t we skip the gig tonight and stay home? We can order in some nice food, and I could invite Qingque.ā€
ā€œ... Iā€”ā€
ā€œYou know that going is a bad idea, right?ā€ Fu Xuan sighs. ā€œWeā€™ve gone over this before.ā€
ā€œIā€™m aware of that.ā€ You canā€™t suppress your scowl any longer, turning to face her. ā€œBlade is fineā€”ā€
ā€œHe treats you like shit.ā€
ā€œHe treats everyone like that.ā€
ā€œThat doesnā€™t make it better. If anything, that makes it worse. You deserve better.ā€ Fu Xuan sounds genuinely upset. ā€œAnd you can do better. Easily. With literally anyone else, even if you find them at one of your nasty house shows. Try entertaining the thought?ā€
ā€œYou donā€™t have to be soā€”ā€ You turn to her, fist balling up on your kneesā€” ā€œSo mean about it.ā€
ā€œItā€™s messy.ā€
ā€œAnd itā€™s not your business.ā€
ā€œItā€™s not!ā€ Fu Xuan says, exasperated as she rolls her eyes. ā€œI really shouldnā€™t even be bothering, but you are my friend. And it is painful to watch you chase the tail of a man who will hardly give you the time of day or bare minimum respect. Excuse me for showing concern.ā€
ā€œYour concern is noted.ā€ As it has been before. ā€œBut Iā€™m fine. I wasnā€™t lying earlierā€” thereā€™s other groups I want to see tonight. You... donā€™t have to come along just to babysit. Iā€™ll be alright. I know you hate them.ā€
ā€œI do.ā€
Fu Xuan crosses her arms and exhales, something angry and burning. ā€œAt least let me drive you. I can pick you up later too. Rather I do than some stranger or himā€”ā€
ā€œBlade. His name, Fu Xuan.ā€
ā€œBlade.ā€
ā€œGod, you do say it like a slur.ā€ You roll your eyes, the pit in your stomach having become larger and darker. You swipe below your eyes and thank an Aeon or two that your eyeliner is waterproof.Ā 
...
The house venue is a bit out of town, in the rural suburbs on a lot thatā€™s big enough to host a crowd and not bother the nearest neighbors. Fields streak by during your journey, humming with junebugs and chirping with late- summer crickets. Low hills roll by as a harvest moon rises, waxing and half-full.
Fu Xuan drops you at the curb and idles as you collect yourself. A crossbody bag carries your essentials (your phone, your sticky lip products, a lighter to go with the pack of cigarettes that you actually donā€™t smoke, and two condoms shoved against the bottom). You fiddle with the strap against your shoulder.
ā€œCall me when you need me to pick you up, okay?ā€ Fu Xuan taps the steering wheel. ā€œIā€™ll be awake.ā€
ā€œOkay, mom.ā€
ā€œI mean itā€”ā€
ā€œI know.ā€
ā€œDonā€™t go home with Blade. Or let him drive you home. He handles a car like heā€™s trying to kill himself.ā€
Itā€™s a fair assessment but you still shake your head, trying to seem good-natured despite the rot you feel curling in the back of your throat. Bile, rising, before you have a drop of liquor in you. Itā€™s a little pathetic; youā€™ll really think so in retrospect. For now, you walk toward the venue itching for a drink in your hand or familiar company. Thundering bass and ripping guitar vibrate from the basement windows, shaking the ground beneath your feet.
A crowd clusters at the back of the house. Folks swap cigarettes and clutch cans of cheap beer and flasks decorated with stickers. You quickly survey, looking for, searching for himā€”
(Heā€™s usually out here before his set, hiding away somewhere with Kafka sharing cigarettes and glaring at anyone dumb enough to make a pass at her.)
A hand grabs you by the shoulder, and you nearly jump out of your skin. ā€œOh my gosh, youā€™re here! I didnā€™t know youā€™d be coming to the gig!ā€
Itā€™s March, you know. She is easy to identify with the sweet, candy-like perfume she wears and the slight press of her almond-shaped gel manicure into your shoulder.Ā  March turns you abruptly, throwing her arms around your shoulders and squeezing. Too tightly, knocking the air out of you in an instant. You give her a tentative hug back and pull away quickly. The contact scalds you.
ā€œHave you seenā€”?ā€
ā€œBlade?ā€ March pouts and tilts her head. ā€œYou know, I feel like you only come to these things to see that guy. Heā€™s nothing special. And I have seen him. He was off sulking a while ago, by the sheds in the back of the lot.ā€
ā€œ... Iā€™ll have to check. Thanks, March.ā€
She sighs as you walk away from her, before calling out to Stelle (who is always a step or two behind her anyways.)Ā 
You feelā€” bad about how you treat them. Theyā€™re both good people. So is the third in their trio, Dan Heng, a man with a beautiful face and an eerily calm demeanor, especially when compared to his companions. The group of them was introduced to you back when you first started attending these shows, hanging around the scene, and sweating in the basement of mildew-filled houses. They were some of your first friends, and easy to mesh with when you gave yourself the time and space to. Stelle always had a flask with lukewarm vodka or tequila, and March kept a case of seltzers in her trunk. Dan Heng was the ever-reliable sober cab.Ā 
(It was nice back then. Before you had become so entangled with Blade and the subsequent social politics that came with chasing and occasionally fucking the hot, albeit emotionally-unavailable bassist of HUNTERS. It was far easier to hold those friendships than to orbit around a man who you can never tell if he hates you or wants to fuck you in his back seat.)
You find Blade tucked away around the side of the house, cloaked in shadow while taking long drags of a cigarette. The cherry glows in the dim light. From the basement window peeking out from the ground, a red glow pours out, illuminating the well-worn combat boots he wears. Theyā€™re crusted in filth, falling apart at the toe.Ā 
(Youā€™d still lick them if he asked you to. Hump them if he asked you twice.)
Another figure stands across from him. Serene, arms crossed, with storm eyes visible even in the poor lighting. Dan Heng keeps a perfectly neutral expression as he speaks, hushed, to Blade who wears a scowl so perfectly that it looks like heā€™s carved of immovable stone rather than not flesh.Ā 
Youā€™re not quite within earshot. You canā€™t make out their words, only their tone. Itā€™s an angry exchange, one thatā€™s charged with heat lighting and ire. Blade spits something at Dan Heng, venomous in his tone like he so easily is. Dan Heng replies back something so cooly that itā€™s like a low-tide wave lapping at your feet.
If you were better, you would turn around and leave. Neither of them know that youā€™re here, so close. Itā€™s invasive to listen, but you know that thereā€™s... history between Blade and Dan Heng. Youā€™ve always wondered what it is, and considering that Blade has the emotional availability of a rotting vegetable, you wonā€™t be getting those details out of him.
Maybe witnessing their dynamic (yet again) could provide you some clarityā€”?
(And maybe, if you know why Blade was so, so hurt by Dan Heng, you can do better. You can be the exact thing that Blade wants, and then he will want you, just as much as you want him.)
You listen more keenly:
ā€œIā€™ve asked you to stop booking shows where the Express is already playing.ā€
ā€œAnd Iā€™ve asked you to get off my dick and stop being such a priss, but it doesnā€™t look like youā€™ll ever do that.ā€
ā€œIā€™m asking you to be reasonable.ā€
ā€œSure, because clearly asking me to not play prime gigs is ā€˜reasonableā€™. Not to mention you should be taking this up with Kafka or Elio, not me. Did you just want an excuse to talk, Imbibitor Lunaeā€”ā€
ā€œDonā€™t call me that.ā€
ā€œWhat, have something else youā€™d prefer to be called? I remember plenty of things you liked hearing. Want me to name a few?ā€
ā€œHold your tongueā€”ā€
A stick cracks behind you and you nearly jump out of your skin.
ā€œBladie~ā€ Kafka purrs behind you, hands sliding up over your shoulders, hot breath over the back of your neck. ā€œWeā€™re on soon. Soundcheck in five, Firefly has a vodka shot for you if you want.ā€
Youā€™re frozen.
Blade grunts from around the house, and as he does, Dan Heng emerges from the shadows quickly, on hastened feet, and nearly stumbles when you see him. Your expression must beā€” fucking stupid. Wide-eyed and slack-jawed as Kafka runs her nails up and down your neck.Ā 
As Dan Heng practically sprints off, Kafka croons quietly into your ear, ā€œAnd what are you doing all the way back here? Looking for Bladie again?ā€
You donā€™t need to speak for her to know your answer. Bladeā€™s steps thud against the ground over the short, dry grass.Ā 
Part of you knows you should scramble away and pretend you werenā€™t just lurking like a stray dog begging for kitchen scraps. Itā€™s humiliating to be caught by Kafka (yet again), doing the same shit on a different day. Another part of you, one which is much louder, more persuasive, and saccharine sweet, urges you to face Blade. If you get caught in his maw, good.Ā 
Your hands shake as Blade emerges from the dark.
He looks like death. Ghostly pale skin with deep purple eyebags, like bruises. His eyes are cut carnelian, ethereal and volcanic against his parlor. A cigarette hangs between his plump lips, threatening to burn and melt the pieces of his fringe that hang around his cheeks. Long, wild black hair, tipped in faded crimson, falls down his back in frizzy waves. His arms bulge obscenely in the tight, black shirt he wears. A carved jade pendant hangs off of his belt.
Blade stares you down and his scowl deepens, turning even more sour. He mutters something under his breath, something unintelligible but cruel. Itā€™s not the first time heā€™s spoken to you that way. Heā€™s done so more loudly and more brutally.Ā 
Youā€”
(Hate it. You love it. Well, maybe not love, but you crave the way that Blade is awful to you. Youā€™re horrible.)
ā€œBetter get inside now,ā€ Kafka hands drift to your waist, tugging on the belt loop of your pants. You let out a little yip. ā€œIā€™m sure the front row is filling up fast. No need to spy on Bladie if you get a prime spot during the actual set, hm?ā€
Sheā€™s right; she usually is.
Kafka leaves you with an elegant twirl, humming one of HUNTERS songs from their new EP under her breath. You know the tune. Youā€™ve been playing it on repeat for the last two months.Ā 
Itā€™s easy to follow the jarring trills of soundcheck as you float inside the home, following the trail of people headed toward the basement. Descending down the rickety, railingless stairs into thick, humid air that reeks of sweat, beer, and fledging mold. Down, down, down you goā€” maybe to hell, where you perhaps belong.
...
Moon Drinker by HUNTERS
You taught me that the high moonĀ 
Was our loversā€™ sigil
How quickly did you throw away our runes
How empty is your cup
Moon Drinker
That you would break mine too
...
The gig is decent. Thatā€™s how these shows tend to be and you enjoy them just enough to tolerate the stench and humidity of grungy basements like this one.Ā 
Three bands play, IP3, the Express, and HUNTERS. The interest you expressed to Fu Xuan about Pier Pointā€™s IP3 was a lie, but theyā€™re not bad. The frontman, a blond with eyes like inverted crystals, has a sultry edge to his voice that verges on sexual. Itā€™s a cleaner sound that rips into something dirtier, filthier, as their set goes on.Ā 
The Express follows IP3. Youā€™ve seen them more times than you can count, but the trio is still nice to listen to, even now. March always plays with the crowd in between her harmonies in a way that riles folks up just enough without causing abject chaos. The band plays a new song you donā€™t know, one that is angry and loud and so unlike their normal sound. Dan Heng is on vocals, rather than solely on guitar, and youā€™re reminded of how mournful and melodic his voice can be. The exact words of the piece get eaten by the cement foundation of the basement, but you imagine that itā€™s an elegy.
HUNTERS is last on.
They usually are, as their music is the loudest and gnarliest, and theyā€™re typically the most well-known (even if they have a shit reputation and their crowds leave trashed venues in their wake). You feelā€” insane when they start playing. You know all of their songs, even if you donā€™t really like their music. Kafkaā€™s voice is hypnotic in a way thatā€™s disarming, even on a recording. Silver Wolf is too good of a drummer for the caliber of band that they are, and Firefly shreds easily on guitar, trained on strings since childhood, but using her talents in a grunge band rather than on a world stage.
Bladeā€™s bass playing is messy. Though his tempo is sure and unwavering, the actual rhythm drags and punches in intervals that verge on unnerving. You have never been able to place if this is due to whatever rage and poison he carries into music making, or if his fingers are as arthritic as Kafka jokes that they are.Ā 
It doesnā€™t really matter, in the end. The sound blends together in a cacophony that sounds like the way bursted flesh looks. If you could taste the way their newest EP sounded, it would be the iron tang of blood and the acrid burn of bile.Ā 
Youā€™re fucked for itā€” for Blade. Youā€™ve been since you first became tangled in this web.
A pit opens in the middle of the crowd, small at first, but rapidly widening, with more and more people throwing themselves into it. They bounce around and bash against the individuals at the sides of the pit, only to be shoved back in a moment later.Ā 
You try to stay away from it. Instead, you watch Blade like a fucking pervert.
The basement has gotten hot. Steamy, if you look hard enough at the air that barely circulates against the low, pipe-ridden ceiling. Blade has thrown his hair up in a high ponytail, wisps of hair still cling to his neck and temples, sweat visibly rolling down his neck. His shirt sticks to his toned chest as the overclocked speakers try to keep up with the HUNTERS most recently released songā€” ā€˜MOON DRINKERā€™.
Blade doesnā€™t look at you. Not once.
His eyes are fixed elsewhere, deeper in the crowd, beyond the bodies in the pit and those who hang at the outskirts by the houseā€™s ancient boiler. Bladeā€™s attention is fixed onā€” something (someone. You can assume who.) Not once does his gaze drift down his instrument, and never does he acknowledge the way you stand in the front row, so close, with your attention squarely on him.
(This is normal. So normal, itā€™s painful.)
The pit expands even further, widening as more gig-goers jump into mosh as one song bleeds into the next. You almost get swirled in yourself as a stranger slams into your side with enough force to nearly knock you to the ground.Ā 
A broad, warm hand catches you by your bicep, hoisting you up before you even have a chance to fall.Ā 
ā€œBe careful now,ā€ Itā€™s Jing Yuan (who is much too powerful and rich to be at a basement show, but yearning pushes you both to do stupid, nonsensical things) who speaks directly into your ear, so you can hear him even as your ears ring muffled. ā€œAre you alright?ā€
You turn to nod at him, flashing him a thumbs up and nervous smile. The cologne he wears permeates the space around you, overpowering the sweat and mildew with ease. He gives you an easy smile and a squeeze, before letting you. He sidesteps your frame to be closer to the pit, crossing his arms over his chest and shielding you from the worst of the throng.Ā 
Youā€™re grateful for the cover; it would be embarrassing to topple over right in front of Blade.
It takes you a moment to recenter yourself, lost in Jing Yuanā€™s scent and the roar of Fireflyā€™s final, aching guitar riffs. You look back to HUNTERS once more as they finish out their set in a loud, carnal flourish. The expensive speakers theyā€™ve dragged with them are going to fucking blow outā€”
Blade is staring at you.
Not into the crowd, toward the placid face and cold heart that so clearly plague him, not to his bandmates or instrument, but looking at you.
In the red-lit basement, his eyes nearly glow, unnatural in their anger as they always are. It seemed more concentrated, feral and crystallized in its intensity. Rage. You want to cower under it while your insides feel hot and frigid all at once. He pierces so easily, so thoughtlessly. As the crowd erupts into cheers and shouts as the set ends, you cannot move. Staked in place.Ā 
Not once does Blade look away from you, and his mouth does not deviate from the twisted frown he wears.
...Ā 
Swordmaker by HUNTERS
If I were forged alongside you,Ā 
Do you think I would forgive you then?
If iron was your skin,
Steel your lungs
and lead your heart,
You would be easier to hold.
Empty are memories
Full is the garden
And bloody is the blade.
ā€¦
You should be better than this.
Blade slams you up against the back of the shed, the motion jarring and far too fast to be pleasant. Your head knocks painfully against the wood and peeling paint, and despite how you whimper with the impact, Blade doesnā€™t react. He doesnā€™t seem to care.Ā 
(You know he doesnā€™t.)
He hikes your leg up over his hip and grinds against your core through your pants. The motion is rough, clumsy and far too harsh to be pleasurable. The dry friction through your panties makes you squirm and dig your nails into his shoulders. Blade grunts in your ear. You think he likes the pain.
The gig was only let out half an hour ago, and plenty of people are still milling around. Whispers are circulating about if and where there will be an afterparty. You werenā€™t paying much attention to themā€” theyā€™re easy to ignoreā€” especially when Blade had been dragging you by the wrist just far enough away from the main house to fuck without being overtly noticeable.Ā 
(Barely, though. Blade can be loud and you can be loud when youā€™re with him. Youā€™re tempting fate to be caught, seen with him in this way. Itā€™s an open secret that youā€™re the scraps that Blade entertains himself with, but you would rather not be caught with your literal pants down.)
Blade smells like cigarettes and sweat. The scent of unclean smoke tangles in his unruly hair as you get a grip on it and tug. The juncture of his neck has the faintest hint of some cologne youā€™re sure he doesnā€™t know the name of and stale sweat. You press your lips there and dare to drag your tongue across his skin and taste him. Itā€™s not a good taste, not necessarily, but you love it. Salty and filthy. (Itā€™s disgusting, but familiar and morosely comforting.) You are drunk on it and it makes you feel pathetic at the same time.
A growl sounds in your ear as Blade pins you with his weight to the shed. Dragging you back from his neck, he grabs your jaw, forcing you to look at him fully.Ā 
ā€œDonā€™t leave marks.ā€ He paralyzes you with his stare and sneer.Ā 
ā€œIā€™d never.ā€ You try to sound earnest, even if itā€™s a lie. Because you wouldā€” youā€™d bite and tear at his neck (like he does at yours) until the skin there is black and blue. Happily, you would leave hickies above his collar. Split his lip and bite his jaw hard enough to bleed. You could wear his blood on your teeth and smile for once at these fucking gigs.
Instead, you do not bite him. You just let Blade maul you as he desires.
He grinds against your core. The pressure is unpleasant at this point, too much and too little all at the same time. When you whimper now, he just ignores you and slips his hands under your shirt. He grabs your waist in both hands and squeezes.
ā€œTurn around,ā€ says Blade, already twisting you himself, so your front is pressed against the shed.
ā€œH-Here?ā€ You laugh nervously. Despite your... reputation, something cold, unwelcome and uncomfortable settles in you. ā€œC-Canā€™t we go to your car? Or inside?ā€
ā€œMaybe later.ā€
(Itā€™s awful. Itā€™s sick, the way your heart flutters at the implications of ā€˜laterā€™. ā€˜Laterā€™ means more of him. More of Bladeā€™s time, his touch, his hardly-there care. More scraps for you to gorge yourself on, more time to beg for more. Itā€™s sick. Itā€™s sick how fucked you are for him.)
Blade reaches around your front to undo the button at the top of your trousers. In a swift motion, he has them around your thighs. Just enough that he can bend you over and access your cunt with some amount of ease. He keeps your panties on at first (he usually does this. Youā€™re never sure why. You can delude yourself into thinking itā€™s him taking his time with you, but you know that that is a lie).Ā 
Blade places one of his hands on the back of your neck to flatten you against the shed, while the other must be unbuttoning his own pants to get his cock out, based on the jingling of metal and shred of a zipper. You swallow, your mouth dry. Youā€™re dry, but you know that if you try to touch yourself to prep at this point, Blade will only be meaner.
The most he does is run two fingers over your slit, over your panties. Itā€™s barely enough contact on your clit to be felt, but you gasp and shudder anyway. Canting your hips back, you try to encourage more contact. Anything heā€™ll give you.
He sighs behind you. Disappointed. Aggravated. It makes you want to cry.
Blade peels down your panties. The cold air shocks you, your core tightening up, but you hardly have time to adjust to the temperature before Bladeā€™s equally cold hands fully part your folds. He sighs again, pulling away only to spit on his fingers, and smear his saliva around your hole. It feels dirty. You feel dirty.
When Blade pulls away, you whine at the loss of contact (at how cold it is, at how the crowd milling around smoking cigarettes and cheap weed is just on the other side of this dilapidated shed crows and laughs into the night). You swear you can recognize Marchā€™s giggle above the din of conversation.
Youā€™re brought back to your entanglement with a harsh slap to your ass. Harsh and audible. The sound that escapes your lips is choked and high.Ā 
ā€œDonā€™t get distracted,ā€ Blade huffs. He spits again, presumably on his dick.Ā 
You nod, latching onto the pain radiating from slap to your ass. As if sensing it, Blade lays down another strike. This one is hotter, harder. He isnā€™t holding back. It is sure to bruise the tender flesh there. A mark. Something that will tangibly ache, something leftover from your tryst.
You could cry.
The velvety head of Bladeā€™s cock nudges your folds. He brackets you into the wall, arms on either side of you. Heat radiates off his chest and sinks into your spine.
ā€œā€˜Feels good?ā€ He asks, voice hoarse as he coats himself in your meager slick.
ā€œY-yeah,ā€ you lie. Itā€™s not enough to feel good. You donā€™t care.
Blade seems content enough with your answer as he bears down on you. Flattening you to the dirt-covered shed, he hitches his hip down, then up, trying to fit the tip of his cock into your hole. He maneuvers your hips as he pleases, grunting when the tip of him catches on your cunt. When you dare to whine, even the smallest sound, he cracks his hand down on your ass again. Your vision speckles into darkness with the shot of pain andā€”
(The roar of anxiety and subsequent shame when you realize how much quieter the milling crowd nearby has become.)
ā€œHold still.ā€ Blade's voice has sunk low, gravely with the cigarettes heā€™s been smoking all evening.Ā 
The next time his cock touches your opening, he presses in without hesitation.
Itā€™sā€”
Itā€™s too fucking much.
It is, it always is, every single fucking time he fucks you. Any prep he gives you is perfunctory. Blade will never lavish you with attention, not in the way that you probably need. That youā€”
(Might even deserve.)
No, the most that Blade will do is fuck you filthy behind a shed, near some of his more well-adjusted peers and probably come inside of you. On past occasions, he has let you suck him off in the backseat of his car. Heā€™s only accidentally (ā€˜accidentallyā€™) came on your face a few times. Less than ten, more than five. Once, he ate you out for a few minutes, but you swear to god he was groaning someone elseā€™s name as he did.
(Youā€™re fucking pathetic.)
This is always too much. Blade is too big. Too big, even if you were stretched and primed with a few fingers like would be right and proper. As tight and dry as you are, itā€™s painful. He has to grind into your cunt with rolling little thrust so he can fit himself in at all. Each one shocks a breath out of you, a shattering, fragile sound.Ā 
When Blade bottoms out, he lays flat over your back. The weight of him is suffocating. His corded muscle is all dead weight above you as his cock twitches inside you. You canā€™t tell if heā€™s idling to allow you some time to adjust, or purely for his own leisure. You canā€™t be sure. You donā€™t want to ask him either.
ā€œYouā€™re tight.ā€ Bladeā€™s voice threatens to break.
(Of course you are. Heā€™s the only person you will let fuck you, and these trysts only occur every few weeks, when thereā€™s a show that you can be cornered at.)
He bucks into you, deeper still. The head of his cock is touching parts of you that shouldnā€™t be touched.
You whimper, ā€œBladeā€”ā€
He growls in response. Itā€™s a raspy and low tone that makes arousal burn in your gut and leak down your thighs. (You hope so anywayā€” itā€™s more wet and you donā€™t think it hurts enough that youā€™re bleeding.) Blade fucks you in earnest, then. Thereā€™s no delay, no waiting, no potential for momentary, perceived niceties. He pulls out of you almost completely, then thrusts back into you in one single motion. The friction burns and your vision wavers.Ā 
(You still moan like a whore.)
You feelā€” dirty. Disgusting. Pathetic as he fucks you like. You donā€™t feel like a person as he fucks you; you never do. How could you? The grip he uses on your hips is too bruising and the force and strength heā€™s using to brutalize your cunt is just too much. He fucks you like heā€™s taking anger out on a piece of drywall. Blade shares physically with you in the way a dog shreds a chew toy to bits, then leaves it on the ground to fester.
Blade grunts next to your ear, nipping there.
He doesnā€™t kiss youā€” well, not often. He canā€™t with your current position. You wouldnā€™t expect him to anyway. Sometimes he leaves a ring of dark hickies across your neck, like a collar. You like those, but he always waits an extra long time to see you after he marks you like that.
(You presume to make sure that the bruises have fully yellowed, then faded. A clean canvas.)
Bladeā€™s pace increases, just before he pulls out. His cock rests on the cleft of your ass and he tips his forehead to rest on the shed, just beside yours.
ā€œYouā€™re still dry.ā€
ā€œSorryā€”ā€
He cuts you off. ā€œItā€™s fine.ā€
...
It apparently isnā€™t fine.Ā 
Blade drags you toward the house. He barks at someone, then Kafka, to find a room. You feel dazed as he does. Out of your body, as you receive a number of knowing and unknowing stares from the lingering show-goers who cluster around a firepit.Ā 
(How many of them heard you just now? How many know the exact sounds you make when in barely-there pleasure? In certainly-there pain? How many of them know the sound of Bladeā€™s too-big cock slapping into your too-dry cunt?)
It makes you feel sick to think about.
A room must be found for the two of you, as Blade drags you up the stairs of the back porch.Ā 
As he does, he hesitates.
(He has so rarely done this.)
His gaze is not on you; it pierces elsewhere in the dark. A floodlight off the back of the house illuminates a section of the yard, and just beyond its reach, nestled somewhere between the dark and light, he fixates. His jaw sets and locks.Ā 
There are figures, you realize.
Theyā€™re easy to identify once you actually focus. One is lithe and short-haired, the other broad-shouldered and long-haired.Ā  Dan Heng and Jing Yuan. Speaking on the outskirts. It feels private. Their attention turns from their hushed conversation to the two of you as Blade stares daggers and swords into them. As if he could pierce them with nothing more than his silent rage and angry eyes.Ā 
You freeze.
Their expressions are obscured in the lowlight, but you can almost feel the looks they give you. Like a sickly mucus that gets stuck to you and rolls down your flesh in slow, cold globs.Ā 
Dan Heng (once so dear to you, still probably dear to youā€”) looks guarded, thought darkened. Contempt twists his expression, anger following just after. Youā€™d ever wager that heā€™s disgusted, maybe. Probably with you, because he knows youā€™re better than this. Beside him, Jing Yuan wears an expression of careful passivity, of geniality, as he always does, but itā€™s tinged with something sad and old. For all parties involved in this silent, momentary exchange.
Jing Yuan regards you directly, slowly blinking at you, as though he was a large house cat intent on making you feel safe, and not a presence that only drives the bubbling anxiety in you higher.Ā 
Itā€™s a seconds-long encounter that stretches for an eternity. You cannot make yourself move. You cannot feel anything other than rotten and small.
Blade lets out a harsh exhale and yanks you away. The scene breaks and youā€™re dragged inside. He whispers under his breath, vitriol-tinging his tone. Your panties feel sticky and wet as you walk.
Kafka had found a room for you, on the second floor of the house. God knows whose it actually is. You donā€™t get a good look at the room as Blade pushes you inside.. Itā€™s dim, the only light is licking in from the dirty window, an afterburn from the raging bonfire outside. You hear muffled voices still, leaking in like a draft.Ā 
Blade locks the door and pushes you onto the unmade bed.
Itā€™s a cheap mattress with flannel sheets. It smells like old weed smoke and cheap incense. Fu Xuan would tell you that you deserve better than this. You think you might.
Blade climbs on top of you, jaw still locked, and eyes far away.
(You do wonder what happened between him and Dan Heng. Something did. Something gutting and heartbreakingā€” you hear it when Blade sings. A betrayal, an intangible knife cut but still so painful. Dan Heng has always spoken about Blade with a type of protective neutrality. He warned you to never get involved with Blade. To stay away, to not get on Bladeā€™s bad side, and if something did entangle you with him, Dan Heng could sort it out. He has always cared so fiercely for those he loves; itā€™s a shame that you have squandered it.)
(Blade is a sentimentalist. Blade is so held in the past that it chokes him. It always has, during every moment youā€™ve shared with him. He lingers in the bloody past, he holds it in his hands with a grip thatā€™s meant to snap bird wings and flay flesh. He hates Dan Heng. He still loves him, though. You see it on his face sometimes. You hear it in Bladeā€™s music. The ache, the death, the unending grief and mourning and rage that the man simply wonā€™t let go of.)
(It is obsession.)
It shouldnā€™t make you bitter to think about. Yet, it does. Itā€™s not your place to hold those types of feelings, let alone express them. For so many reasons, Blade will never see you as anything more than a cheap fuck. You think Dan Heng is the primary one. Over time, youā€™ve grown bitter. Resentful.Ā 
Blade pulls off your shirt in one swift move. Heā€™s slower than he usually is. More deliberate. His hands are shaking, like how they do just after he finishes a set. Itā€™sā€¦ offā€”
You hate it. You hate that the lingering pain of someone else will effect Blade more than you ever, ever could in the present.
You grab a fistful of his hair and tug. His breath catches as you do.
ā€What the fuck is your deal?ā€ You sneer at him. Thereā€™s a cruel edge in your voice that does not sound like you. Blade brings out the worst in you, and you fall prey to it, so easily.Ā 
Blade glances up at you, eyes sharp like cut gems. He says nothing.
ā€You and Dan Heng,ā€ you laugh. You donā€™t mean toā€” you donā€™t, you donā€™tā€” and you yank Bladeā€™s hair so he has to look at you better. ā€œItā€™s pathetic, you know. How you look at him like a kicked fucking dog. What happened between the two of you, anyways?ā€
Blade freezes. So do you.
Youā€™ve misstepped so brutally. So stupidly and tragically and idiotically. Youā€™ve pushed too hard for whatā€”?
Blade is on his haunches in an instance and he slaps you across the face.
Your head follows the force of the impact, forcing your face to the side. Your cheek smarts. It wasnā€™tā€” that hard. Blade is strong. He could do worse. Still, it shocks you. The pain is enough to make you gasp and reel.
ā€What the fuckā€”ā€œ
ā€Donā€™t,ā€ Blade grabs your jaw, ā€œopen your mouth about things you know nothing about. You should know better.ā€
You should. You do.
ā€I could know more, if you ever told me, I donā€™t knowā€” anything?ā€ You laugh in his face, manic behind your eyes. Youā€™re crushing the delicate nature of your cheap arrangement like how a child would crush a flighty butterflyā€™s papery wings.Ā 
Blade shakes his head, smothering a laugh. He wrangles you forward, half-off risen from the bed, and parts your lips with his thumb. Before you can react, bite, clawā€” he is raising himself higher than you, dwarfing you in height, and spitting down into your mouth, onto your tongue.
ā€You donā€™t know when to shut up, do you?ā€ He pats the side of your face, over the cheek that he struck. It burns. In another world, this touch would be tender. Here, you can only wince.Ā 
Before you can reply, continue to run your mouth and rile him up further, Blade kisses you.
It shocks you, stuns you.Ā 
Heā€” he hasnā€™t ever kissed you before. Itā€™s never been an explicit boundary, but never once during these trysts has Blade ever initiated this type of contact. It has felt dangerous to do so yourself. Something thatā€™s too intimate, too personal to share. The core of your entanglement is the way he uses you. Itā€™s impersonal.Ā 
A kiss, you think, implies something more tender.
You gasp into his lips, and he takes the opportunity to all but violate the inside of your mouth. His tongue plunders inside, licking at his own spit that you have yet to swallow. A noise chokes off in the back of your throat. Something desperate and shocked that you hardly recognize. Itā€™s filthy. He nips at your lips and pushes you back down.
Blade devours you.Ā 
Itā€™s too much, really. Itā€™s a gesture of tenderness that has been so thoroughly mutilated, calling it a kiss feels paltry. The way his lips are on your own is much more like an argument and a subsequent conquest. One in which you lose ground. He nips at your lower lip, snags it between his teeth, and tugs it as he pulls away.
You pant, the sound of your own breath roars in your own ears. Your hands are still buried in his hair, grip unyielding, anchoring you.
Blade smiles, something poisonous and satisfied. You are too drunk on the singular kiss he gives you to care that much.
ā€œThatā€™s all it takes, is it?ā€ He laughs, the sound dark and rolling, like the sound of an earthquake cracking the earth.Ā 
He already knows youā€™ll beg for scraps. God forbid he gives you even a morsel more.Ā 
The bed squeaks as he flips you by your hips so youā€™re laid flat, belly-down on the dirty sheets. Blade spanks your still-clothed ass for good measure before rustling around behind you. Assumedly to disrobe, just enough to fuck you. Assumedly, to ignore the condoms you brought (knowing he would disregard themā€”). Assumedly, to fuck you with every inch of your life.Ā 
You want it. You want him so badly it physically hurts.
(Or, maybe you tore while he had you behind the shed. Who is to say?)
Blade clamors behind you, shaking, arthritic hands tugging your pants by the waistband. He doesnā€™t even bother to unzip them this time. Your panties get pulled down along with them, and they get tossed elsewhere in the barely-lit room. Blade spits behind you, and a sound of too-dry stroking follows.Ā 
ā€œD-do you want me to suck you off?ā€ you ask with a hum. Youā€™d let him fuck your face, if he asked. Or, if he wanted. Blade wouldnā€™t ask.
ā€œNo.ā€
ā€œJust let me know.ā€
Blade sighs behind you, but you think little of it.
You brace yourself up on your elbows, lowering your upper half to be flat against the bed, and arching your hips as high as theyā€™ll go. Itā€™s as if to make yourself look appetizing. You hope it entices Blade, even a little.
(Please, you need him to want you. You need him to want you so badly. Please, please, pleaseā€”)
The head of Bladeā€™s cock rubs as your hole, down to your clit, then back up again a few times. Heā€™s so hot, itā€™s like he is burning you. Contact that scalds. The contact against your clit is... nice. Itā€™s the most warm up he has graced you with in a while. You could crave more, but settle for this.Ā 
ā€œCā€™mon Blade,ā€ you whine. Your voice sounds airy. ā€œFuck me.ā€
He doesnā€™t reply, not with his voice. The rocking of his hips becomes more pronounced, and the slide of him against you becomes slicker. Still too big, too hot, but wet at least. Which is a bonus. Pre and blood are probably leaking onto the shaft at least a little bit too.
It makes it easier once he slides home in a single blow.Ā 
Itā€™s too fucking deepā€” especially with this angle. The head of his cock presses against your deepest parts, bruises them in a place where no one can see or feel but you. Blade is huge, the girth of him stretches you as his hips rest against your ass.
A wretched noise bubbles up past your lips. Something between a cry and a plea, for more, for lessā€” to go home, to be in a warm, clean bed with someone who actually caresā€” you arenā€™t sure. Your desires have been twisted up and wrong for so long, you canā€™t tell what you really want.Ā 
It makes you feel rotten, and then thereā€™s only one thing you want.
(To hurt.)
Blade fucks you, then. Fully in, fully out of. Long and deep thrusts that carve out your insides in a brutal way. Itā€™s violent. He leans over your back, and braces himself over you. You feel small, stupid, and hurt. A horrible swirl of things that make tears spring up at the corners of your eyes. You bury your face in the crusty pillow youā€™d manage to snag nearbyā€”
And Blade tugs it away immediately. His big, calloused hand curls to hold your jaw up, so every pitiful whine and whimper you let out canā€™t be muffled. The bed squeaks as his thrusts slow.
ā€œDonā€™t hide.ā€
ā€œI-I wonā€™t.ā€
ā€œYou were.ā€
ā€œI wonā€™t a-againā€”ā€
ā€œYou want this, donā€™t you?ā€ Blade growls in your ears, then moves to the most fragile skin of your neck and bites.Ā 
(You do, you doā€” god you do. You need this.)
You nod, and Blade keeps biting. His jaw nearly locks. Youā€™re sure that youā€™ll be bruised for a week.
Blade scoffs and rears back, grabs your hips in both hands for leverage. And he fucks you.
Thatā€™s all it can be, really. You canā€™t get a solid hold on anything. The pillow has been thrown off the bed, and you struggle to find purchase on the sheets. All you do is take it. Pleasure, or something like it, builds in your core and goes nowhere. It simmers but never crests anywhere near orgasm.Ā 
You donā€™t mind. This is enough.
Bladeā€™s pace increases, never frantic. Never with him. Manic maybe, insane, tortured and damaged, but never frantic. Not with you. His rhythm falters as his cock slides in and out of you, slick beginning to stick to the inside of your thighs.Ā 
His hand comes down on his ass. The other cheek, this time. Itā€™s enough force to bruise again. Youā€™ll have trouble sitting for a week.
As Blade nears his peak, his rhythm stutters. His breath grows harsher and more strained. His grip goes from bruising to breaking. You gasp with the pain, but donā€™t tell him to stop. His cock brushes against your cervix, and never your sweet spot.Ā 
Blade flattens you to bed, prone, and puts his entire weight on top of you as his orgasm hits him. A strangled cry shatters from his lips into your ear as he fucks you too fast and too hard. A gush of warmth fills your insides, spilling to your outsides when there isnā€™t enough of you to hold all of him.
The bed frame slams into the wall with his final few thrusts.Ā 
You lay there, in the filth, in the pain and the dissatisfaction of the tryst, and rot.
...
Blade leaves you there, at some point.
Not right away, but eventually. He rolls off you at some point, catches his breath for a while, checks his phone, then rises to right himself.
You cannot make yourself move. The only thing you can make yourself do is take slow, measured breaths. Each ache in your body is punctuated, loud and unignorable now that the fizzling pleasure of sex has dissipated. Whatā€™s left of it is this: carnage.Ā 
ā€œYou have a ride home?ā€ Blade asks. He must be near the door, based on the sound of his voice.
Fu Xuanā€™s warning words come to mind, and shame fills your belly.Ā 
ā€œYeah.ā€
ā€œGood.ā€
And he leaves.
You rot for a while longer.
This is not the first encounter that has gone this way. Blade fucks you like this and leaves. Thereā€™s no reverie or sweetness. There is using and being used, and the conclusion that always follows is this. Cooling, soon-to-be dry cum leaking out of you in thick droplets and a bite mark on your neck youā€™ll need to conceal for the next two weeks. Blade will ignore you like he doesnā€™t know you, next time he sees. But still fucks you like a toy.
Itā€™s awful. Itā€™s all you want.
You force yourself up at some point.
Youā€™re surprised to find that your pants and panties are in a heap on the end of the bed. You are sure that they were tossed farther, but perhaps you misremember. Painstakingly, you rerobe yourself. Moving your legs in such ways hurts so bad, you could cry. You probably did cry while Blade fucked you.Ā 
The quick stop in the squalid bathroom confirms this. Mascara smudges around your eyes and down your cheeks. The sticky gloss you were wearing has been smeared away. Not even a stain of the crimson remains.Ā 
You feel hollow as you walk down the stairs, outside, toward the bonfire and its rapidly dwindling flames. A few folks still millaround, people you recognize, just barely, though no one you could call a friend remains around the pit. Stelle, March, and Dan Heng are long gone, probably. Youā€™d feel too ashamed to look them in the eye anyway.
Someone offers you a warm beer and you take it. Your hands shake.
Hollow and wordless, you move around the backyard like a specter. Part of you wishes you were one, just something mostly formless and shapeless. Transparent. No one could see you make a fool of yourself that way. There would be no witnesses to your desperation and perversion.
You swallow back bile when it rises in your throat, and wash it down with a chug from the can.
Youā€™re surprised to find Jing Yuan idling around the corner of the house. He looks up when you near him, and he greets you with the same genial smile he always wears. He nods to the space next him, already plucking a pack of cigarettes from the breast pocket on his shirt. You take one, and he lights it for you in the next instant.
ā€œIt looks like you needed that,ā€ he hums. He doesn't take one for himself, only tucking the carton away and out of sight.
ā€œMaybe.ā€ You want to vomit. Or slide down the wall of the house and rot there.Ā 
He laughs then. Itā€™s too... warm of a sound for how you feel. For how dirty these venues are, and for the company that you have come to hold, it feels dissonant. Jing Yuan is too kind, too patient.Ā 
(He cannot be your friend because your ruin would spread to him, maybe.)
ā€œTake as many as you like,ā€ he urges with a hum, and settles next to you.
Silently, you ruminate. Descend into yourself. You suppose, given the events youā€™ve seen tonight, that youā€™re both stewing in something akin to yearning.Ā 
(Jing Yuan is better than you for it. He, at least, doesnā€™t sleep with his unrequited adored in someone elseā€™s bed after a messy house show.)
ā€œDo you have a way home?ā€ asks Jing Yuan, breaking you from your slow-rolling spiral.
You shake your head. It would be rude to call Fu Xuan so late. Youā€” you hadnā€™t really thought about a ride. Not yet.Ā 
Jing Yuan looks you up and down and his smile looks sadder, ā€œHow about a ride home?ā€
ā€œSure.ā€ You nod.Ā 
The ride back home in Jing Yuanā€™s (too nice, too expensive, too decadent) car is quiet. An album from a band you donā€™t recognize plays at a low volume. Soothing, soft voices, so juxtaposed from the venue you leave behind. Maybe you just canā€™t recognize the words because youā€™re decaying. Your phone lays in your lap, over your aching thighs.Ā 
[no new messages]
(Because Blade never messages you after a fuck. Youā€™re not worth that much to him.)
...
Gingerly, you unlock your front door and enter your little apartment. Fu Xuan lays on the couch, on her back, with her phone against her collarbone. Her mouth is parted in peaceful sleep, though her hair is still done up, all of her pins are still in.
(She waited for you, again. And you failed her, again.)
You donā€™t know how she puts up with you. Or why either.
Some part of you wants to vomit. Wretch, like itā€™ll purge the awful, disgusting thoughts warming you. They do not serve you. You should justā€”
(Know better. You gain nothing from entangling yourself from Blade. The sex is... enough. Because Blade doesnā€™t know his own strength sometimes and makes it hurt, unintentionally toeing the line between too little and too much. Itā€™s still not worth it. It shouldnā€™t be worth it. Youā€™d be better off never going to any gigs, ever again. You wouldnā€™t have to disappoint and embarrass yourself to your old friends then. You wouldnā€™t have to linger in the yearning of others while never having that affection given to you.)
You collapse atop your bed. Your makeup has been roughly scrubbed off with an old towel, and you can feel the crunchy remnants of mascara clinging around your eyes. You canā€™t make yourself care. Burying your face in your pillow, you burrow into your blankets. Youā€™ll probably be sore and hungover tomorrow... today? The songbirds are just beginning to chirp their morning arias. It makes you sick to your stomach.
As you begin to doze, your phone vibrates.Ā 
[one new message]
blade: did you get homeĀ 
Your mouth feels dry and your chest feels so tight you could die.Ā 
you: yeah. jing yuan drove me.Ā 
[seen: 5:11 AM]
You hold your breath as Blade begins to type. Then stops typing. Then begins again. It goes on for several volleys and you really do think you might puke.
blade: get some sleep
You drop your phone somewhere in your sheets. Giddiness fills your chest, despite the exhaustion and ache and bone-rotting fatigue. Elation causes you to smile, something wide and girlish that you have to hide in your pillow, lest it be beared to the world.
(Itā€™s a scrap. Itā€™s nothing. Itā€™s worse than the bare minimum and the bar is already in hell.)
But, itā€™s something.
A morsel. Something to clutch onto and hold and cherish.
You want to put his words between your teeth and swallow.Ā

THE POD (short FEEDISM/GOONER story)
If you enjoyed this little story, you might enjoy my ohter series on my DA acc !!!
Some mechanical arms have plastic sleek skinny arms that not only look human, but warm to the touch so you can't tell the difference. The mechanical arms do all the manipulation of the client. Whether rearranging the fat on their body, spreading the fat on their belly or thigh to let another mechanical arm with a mounted fleshlight get between their legs, squeezing their breasts or belly, or sometimes even light spanking if the client is in the mood.
The pod is also equipped with a synthetically adapting chair. This not only follows the client's figure perfectly, but even adapts to their growth. It also takes care of hygiene. And it has the ability to push to simulate touch or movement.
The client themselves has sensors on their head that scan their brain activity for 24 hours. We know what they liked, what they like and what they're going to like. We then send exactly the content they wants to their VR glasses, with realistic sound of course. They have a feeding tube in their mouth, which, like the VR goggles, is connected to the sensors.
So let's take a look at her.
The pod is dark, the flickering colored light leaking slightly from behind the glasses on the morbidly obese person sprawled in the pod. The next source of light was a small display with information:
Name: Abrey Miller
Age: 21
Height: irrelevant
Weight: 638 pounds
Gender: Female
Sex: Male
You can also hear loud electric music and porn chatter coming from the headphones. One mechanical hand holds her belly slightly raised, two then hold the fat from her thighs, one holds the fupa lightly to get the arm to the cock with a plastic libricated toy. It goes up and down in a rapid motion. Whenever the client is on the verge of climax, it slows down.
The other hands play with her nipples and gently squeeze her tits, which look pathetic compared to the rest of her body. Obese hands full of rolls lie limply on her distended belly. Some pink goo runs into her mouth through the hose. Her lips tightly around the hose. She moans into it. her double chin is gently shaking.
Her VR googles play first person porn. In her fantasy she's a skinny, worked out lady who is loading another slightly plumper lady from behind. But both are not in a real place. Their bodies float in a world of rainbow rapidly changing colors. Images of artificially large porn-tits or asses appear in thin air. Or colorful signs like "More" "Give in" "Just a little more"
A synthetic chair simultaneously creates gentle pressure on her ass while a mechanical hand fucks her with a rubber cock.
Abrey, I mean, the client's been living like this for a year and a half. Every six months, we have to ask if the clients want to be clients. And this client cried herself to tears trying to get back in. We always welcome new clients, and we cater to their every need! https://www.deviantart.com/pleasuredrunk05/art/The-pod-SSBBW-NEET-GOONER-1151313249

Saving Lu Guang!!
Tumblr media
For obvious reasons, we're all assuming Cheng Xiaoshi is the one who needs to be saved. The final plot twist of season 2 is the main reason:
I'm sorry Cheng Xiaoshi Iā€™ve always been telling you to not change the past but I couldnā€™t follow my own words. Even if I know death is an unchangeable point, I still want to use the last chance to go back to the beginning, and save you.
But. Lu Guang is the most unreliable character you'd find out there. His version of the story is sometimes inconsistent.
Tumblr media
Many details don't add up, might it be the fact he doesn't have his phone with him at a moment as important as closing a trap on Liu Min, or that the scene in the hospital bathroom is different when Cheng Xiaoshi dives as Lu Guang, or the simple obvious impression that it's future Cheng Xiaoshi who's giving him the partner talk on the basketball court--
Well, there might be someone in Lu Guang's corner diving and changing things without him being aware of it. This person being Cheng Xiaoshi himself is most likely.
Now, why would Cheng Xiaoshi dive into the past after all this time when he decided against it after Lu Guang's death? Saving Lu Guang or Qiao Ling is the most realistic and in character reason but there is more to this particular theory today.
Remember, whatever we think, there is more to the story. As omniscient as Lu Guang seems to us at the moment, he, himself, doesn't have all the information.
Past or Future, it has been clear until now that official content is hiding many secrets yet to be uncovered. Dive with me into this madness once more~
This meta is largely inspired by this thread
>> Lu Guang's secret
Let's start with something as basic as characters concept arts. Those always strike me as out of charater, because Lu Guang and Cheng Xiaoshi's personality seems somehow switched: on the character sheets, Cheng Xiaoshi looks pissed and Lu Guang smiles (like a creep).
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Two things are worth noticing in this first pack of pictures:
Lu Guang's character sheet looks like a frame if the film roll has been exposed to light while loading in the camera. It is damaged. His smile in the background is also absolutely not his. In the light of Yingdu Chapter's teaser, it could mean Lu Guang is possessed by either Li Tianchen or Vein. Not only that but the surexposition makes it impossible to know the exact color of his eyes. Could be yellow, red, blue, gray.
They are both trapped in the bottom of a hourglass. Cheng Xiashi looks at Lu Guang in a frustrated/angry manner, and this face is a lot like the one in the background of his character sheet. It could implied that Lu Guang got them into some kind of bad situation.
Promotional posters presenting season 2's characters have Li Tianchen in Qiao Ling's shadow while Liu Xiao in Qian Jin's. Lu Guang is Cheng Xiaoshi's. Lu Guang lies/manipulates Cheng Xiaoshi for his own good since the start, he hides secrets after all. He is as much a puppeteer as Liu Xiao. He is very knowlegdable but we have no idea to what extent. We can only assume that whatever he is doing, he's doing it for Cheng Xiaoshi's sake.
Tumblr media
These details and the implications don't put Lu guang under a good light. Lu Guang always was a morally gray character, however his logic paired with Cheng Xiaoshi's compassion make them the duo we are rooting for.
A popular theory is that Lu Guang betrayed a Time-Something Organization to save Cheng Xiaoshi and is now being punished. Another one is that he made a deal with Vein to grant his wish. In any case, he might have ties with Vein and Liu Xiao, as a whole or separatly, we can only speculate so far.
In my meta on the Promotional Poster for the AR GAME, and the Light and Color theory, I mentioned that "Burning Palace" hints on a Fourth character being part of this new group, and argued that the missing character is already part of the cast: Lu Guang.
Futhermore, whatever happened, he can only be at fault: Lu Guang is supposely the one who introduced Cheng Xiaoshi to his powers. We still don't know the origins behind those, and I won't start the disucussion in this meta, but we know that at some point, in this timeline or another, Cheng Xiaoshi tried to convince Lu Guang to use their power to earn money and pay their debts. Link Click Live Action is not canon to the donghua, but in this adaptation, Lu Guang is the one coming to Cheng Xiaoshi and teaching him the useful way to use his strange energy.
To resume, Lu Guang isn't only keeping secrets from Cheng Xiaoshi. As an audience, we know close to nothing about him, even less than his roommate! Except for the fact he's probably been diving back in time to change the past. Therefore, he cannot be trusted regarding his abilities, his past, or even his motivations. Lu Guang knowing everything or more than others because he lived through several repeats is a false fact. When something unexpected happen, he totally freaks out and he is a control freak. It's okay, we love him as he is. But! He is the definition of unreliable as far as narrators go.
In the past or in the future, Cheng Xiaoshi has to find out the truth at some point. His reaction shouldn't be important for this meta though. Actually, I think the official artworks of him being pissed shouldn't be taken quite literally. The hints I talked about above don't mean anything about HIM or his feelings but it says everything about Lu Guang's actions and the implications of those: he is doing something he knows is wrong and his ultimate goal is exactly the same as some antagonist. Being kept in the dark, lied to or manipulated, Cheng Xiaoshi wouldn't focus on any of it.
Why? If Lu Guang actually rewrote reality and put himself in a doomed situation for him, Cheng Xiaoshi would absolutely try to cancel this accomplishment. That's the only important information we need for this meta.
Tumblr media
Cheng Xiaoshi went back in time as someone they knew before so we can assume he would do it again if needed. Imagine our guy coming back as Qiao Ling, as his own wingman to force Lu Guang back into his life? If the talk on the basketball court didn't work, I'm pretty sure getting Lu Guang to do physical work in the studio and bully him to admit he likes Cheng Xiaoshi would do the trick. That's a start anyway.
With these few starting points, we can go deeper now:
>> Through the Looking Glass
There's a myriad of instances where Lu Guang and Cheng Xiaoshi are kept apart from each other by glass or shown as each other's shadow or reflection. And I've been mentioning it for a while now but finally, after almost a year, I think I've finally cracked this case!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Starting with Surprising Click Posters, there are 5 visible TV screens with a message of ERROR on Lu Guang's. No matter the meaning, I think it is important to note that Lu Guang is just as much a spectator as we are. The plot happens as it's supposed to happen: no matter what, they'll end up at the same point. For some reasons, I always believed that Cheng Xiaoshi was trapped behind the glass, in the TV, as a playable character, if you may. That's part of how their abilities work together, isn't it? Their deal is Cheng Xiaoshi dives but Lu Guang drives. Well, I'm not so sure anymore. The Picture of the carwash is random but interesting. Cheng Xiaoshi is outside and is knocking at the window.
Who's the one trapped behind glass after all? What if Lu Guang himself is trapped in a TV and Cheng Xiaoshi is trying to get him out?
Tumblr media
The first one seen with a camera in INPLICK's art isn't Cheng Xiaoshi but Lu Guang. The story is told from his perspective. But this is Link Click we're talking about so this means basically nothing. Cheng Xiaoshi dives into pictures, he is the one with real control. Lu Guang, all-knowing that he is, is introduced as a passenger, an observer. Even after the big reveal regarding his diving abilities, his strict rules and his attempts to protect the main timeline bring him to failure. This cycle is only set to start again over and over, making it an actual time loop.
In "OVERTHINK", Cheng Xiaoshi is the one using the camera. He looks away from Lu Guang (in deception or sadness I'd say). Once he takes the picture, there is no one there: it could mean Cheng Xiaoshi is using one of Lu Guang's pictures to dive. Yes, Lu Guang's picture: after all, it is Lu Guang's camera that he is using.
Take a look at this meta: Rolleiflex
Tumblr media
This aside, Lu Guang is the reflection/shadow, not Cheng Xiaoshi, and thus on several instances. A shadow or a reflection can't do shit. Lu Guang has no control, even if he's being sneaky and acts in the dark. Lu Guang isn't the one calling the shots.
Tumblr media
Cheng Xiaoshi is knocking through the glass to reach Lu Guang who's always watching us, the audience. His motivation, objectives, values, worth depends on Cheng Xiaoshi's survival but he doesn't see him. Perhaps his obsession is blinding him to the point he sort of dehumanized his friend. Indeed, the distance between them is as wide as the one between you and them. Coincidentally, when he does look at us, Cheng Xiaoshi is looking at him.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'll probably write a structured and complete meta about it at some point but for now I'll just put this idea in your head: who else looks at Lu Guang's reflection and portrait, always?
Liu Xiao.
Tumblr media
lover_astrid on X often follows Liu Xiaos's trail, they point out interesting things those, specifically: x x
Let's start with Liu Xiao monolgue at the end of season 2:
"It seems that one has only one destined path. But in reality, it is made up of countless parallel lines. It can be driven by one's personality. And can also change with the influence of others. Sometimes we wanna change it. But we can't. I wanna bring more parallel lines together to turn all uncertainties into certainties."
If we cannot change one's path (aka death is an unchangeable node), what is the point in turning incertainties into certainties? For one thing, I think he means to flatten a curve: make it one unique path for one specific node, like a True Timeline of sorts. Then, what does it imply? My guess is to remove either Cheng Xiaoshi or Lu Guang entirely. A theory to take with a grain of salt.
At this point, if we talk about his identity as today, before Yingdu Chapter, he could very much be an alteration of either Lu Guang or Cheng Xiaoshi trying to right a wrong. In the teaser of Surprising Click, he is standing with a picture in front of the familiar couch, many TV screens surrounding him. He's oviously a watcher. He has more knowledge than Lu Guang, and he's obsessed with him apparently, which implies that he knows about his abilities, maybe personally.
Secondly, the text Liu Xiao is reading is part of Shakespeareā€™s sonnets (39). I won't go too deep into the meaning of it but feel free to read this analysis. It does speaks of lovers separation, but as something that need or should happen.
Tumblr media
Lastly, the black feather is Lu Guang's. Liu Xiao can reach Lu Guang but Cheng Xiaoshi cannot. Liu Xiao is always staring at Lu Guang's image and he has his feather as a memory, but Cheng Xiaoshi is separated from his friend by glass.
Edit: this feather thing is even more important now that Yingdu Chapter Opening THE EYE has been released. It shows a notebook with codes in it and the bookmark used is a white piece with the word REWIND on it. It's probably Lu Guang's notebook. The symmetry of making Liu Xiao an alternative version of Cheng Xiaoshi is more and more likely.
In BREAK! Cheng Xiaoshi is the one looking at us. It's like a nudge: hey, actually, I am the one telling you the story, pay attention please. When he raps in songs, he always starts by interrupting loudly to get your attention as well. "Now I'm talking. And Lu Guang will take over."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Cheng Xiaoshi's hand is on a bubble. I always thought it was a mere planet but it's actually a see-through marble. I think it is possible that Lu Guang is inside. The title itself, "BREAK!" is a giveaway of what it will take to free Lu Guang from this. But hold that thought for now.
The hourglass is a recurring motif in Link Click. It is Lu Guang's symbol. It might means that Lu Guang is in a timeloop. Perhaps he isn't only going through repeats but he is trapped in ONE endless loop. Perhaps he's already saved Cheng Xiaoshi but forgot; cut from the reality he belongs to.
The hourglass is not only an object we come across in PVs. The Birthday artwork for Lu Guang showed him in one, with forget-me-not flowers replacing sand. The Bday arts are actually very interesting because both Cheng Xiaoshi's and Lu Guang's heavily hint on Tarot Cards: the Hanged Man and the Fool. I'm working on an ass-long meta regarding the Tarot Imagery in Link Click so I won't go into too many details here.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
We have the Hanged Man: he might be intuitive but he is lost, feeling trapped, is self-limited, in need for release only possible by letting go. There is a part of this arcane that tells us we know the prefered outcome but it might blind us, bring us to a prophecy we're actively trying to keep from realization. He sacrifices himself but for what?
In myths, might it be Judas hanging from the tree because of guilt, or Odin when he sacrificed himself to gain the knowledge of the runes, we're talking about an obsessive person who acts according to their own beliefs, with strong moral values. The Hanged Man speaks of selflessness... giving and not expecting in return, making sacrifices for what must be done. The truth is the Hanged Man picked his hill and will die on it. This card comes before Death, representing the peace that comes from accepting what is out of our control or no longer resisting our fate. This is all about letting our own hubris prevent us from taking a different approach.
The cat here is covering one of his eyes, which could be a parallel to Odin once more. I mentioned at the end of this meta that Lu Guang's sight has been stolen. So, it might be a choice that he is in the situation he is in but perhaps he shouldn't have made decisions on wrong beliefs.
I'll let you know that the reversed Hanged Man suggests that the seemingly noble deed of offering yourself as the sacrificial lamb is, at least for the time being, a useless gesture.
Now, the Fool. As a tarot card, I find this one very interesting and mysterious. Arthur Edward Waite gives the Fool the number 0, but in his book he discusses the Fool between Judgment (XX), and The World (XXI). He is suspended between realities. The Fool is usually considered part of the Major Arcana in tarot reasing but this is not true in tarot card games; the Fool's role in most games is independent of both the plain suit cards and the trump cards, it does not belong to either category. The Fool proceeds without calculation, spontaneously, without hesitation or resistance. Without a blueprint, he is freed up from rules, restrictions and systems.
Portrayed as an empty headed simpleton unaware of the forces that move him. In the Waite-Rider deck, you'll see him immortalized right before his fall of a cliff, walking with his loyal dog. He's impulsive and careless. But tradition tells us that he has a secret that protects him: the magic of synchronicity. Now that seems counter-productive in my meta but basically synchronicity is what happens when seemingly unrelated events coincide in improbable ways that have some sort of significance for you. Carl Jung believed synchronicities were evidence of a unifying consciousness at play in the universe, creating physical manifestations of what's happening in our psyche.
Together, the Fool and the Hanged Man encourage to take a step into the unknown and to trust that everything will work out in the end. This combinaison warns of a time when sacrifice and surrender is necessary for growth and transformation.
The Hanged Man understands that his position is a sacrifice that he needs to make in order to progress forward. But only by letting go of old patterns or beliefs that are holding him back can he embrace a new path leading to a good resolution.
The gears and hourglass present in these artworks are kind of self-explanatory. A cog only works as part of a machine, and the machine can only work if everything in there is where it should be and fullfills its role. One action or series of actions repeated on loop. The hourglass measures time but it comes to a stop at some point: has to be turned around so the sand it contains keep flowing. It has a start and a stop.
Finally, the character's flowers aren't only pretty, they're also meaningful. Both are related to Love and Death. Forget-Me-Not are popular enough: related to the wish to be remembered even after our passing, translated into devotion and enduring love. Bellies speaks of everlasting love even beyond death, symbol of cheerfulness and loyalty.
>> Time is like Music
"VORTEX" is a palindrome, meaning it is the same when played forward or backward. The sequence itself shows this: it starts with a reverse and then, once Cheng Xiaoshi touches Lu Guang's hand, he falls down. It is a hourglass in shape and sounds. Also, it would be very clever if the story of Link Click as we've seen it had the same construction in its narrative: starting with a reverse and slowly unfolding the accurate chain of events.
Tumblr media
This hourglass, we can find it in the "BREAK!" PV, but also in "XETROverthink". Cheng Xiaoshi literally dives into it to try and reach an unconscious Lu Guang, enlightening the idea that our favorite unreliable narrator has blind spots. We don't see Cheng Xiaoshi catching his friend because the scene cuts to the hourglass.
So, what if Link Click lied to us since the beginning? What if one other version of Cheng Xiaoshi is actually the main character and knows more than Lu Guang himself?
Tumblr media
In "The Tides", when walking in front of the painting of a man with fabricated wings (and we know this story is one of a widower), Cheng Xiaoshi looks at it while Lu Guang looks the opposite way. There are different ways to interpret this (because this is animation so we can't be 100% sure). Once again, Lu Guang could be looking at the audience or merely glancing at his lost friend in longing.
Still, this shot offers two possible points of view:
It could be that Lu Guang empathizes with the widower's story: he is living it. He knows all of it already so he doesn't need to look at the doomed romance on the wall or actually investigate the mansion. He probably did it already.
Cheng Xiaoshi is looking at Lu Guang's shadow/reflection when he looks up at the painting. Or perhaps it is the opposite: Cheng Xiaoshi is looking at himself. This is merely a reflection to him. And Lu Guang thinks he knows the role he is playing in the story but, really, he's clueless.
We don't see who makes the figurines clap later but from their position in the previous shot, we can safely assume it is Cheng Xiaoshi's finger pushing the woman's hand down. Which is interesting. It either means Cheng Xiaoshi will always willingly choose to meet Lu Guang half way... Or Cheng Xiaoshi won't allow them to be kept apart and the real secrets unfold there.
Surprisingly, you might have missed an obvious hint that dropped this summer, or simply overlooked: H A N D S.
Tumblr media
The wings on the painting might look like Lu Guang's demonic ones but I do not believe it is a coincidence that Lu Guang usually sits by Cheng Xiaoshi's right when they clap. The first time we see them do it, and this exact frame has been used in PV and Overthink, Lu Guang claps down. Also, the "BREAK!" poster shows Cheng Xiaoshi as an angel and they are standing in the exact same position as the figures in the mansion. Once again, the hourglass floats, ominous, between their palms.
Note that even when Lu Guang receives Cheng Xiaoshi's hand, he is on the right side.
Tumblr media
Next: None of us skipped "Dive Back in Time" so we know it by heart. Still, I find hints in this intro on a daily basis. If you pay attention, you'll not only notice that Cheng Xiaoshi probably dives in the first three seconds, but he's looking down through glass, at Lu Guang. Lu Guang, who stands at the top of a building here, is still not above Cheng Xiaoshi. Two things:
Tumblr media
In the chronological order, the story told is this: First, Cheng Xiaoshi dives into the picture and then we see Lu Guang changing the timeline to save Cheng Xiaoshi. This is basically Inception. The story/the show that we're watching is happening inside a picture. The whole thing is a dive.
The glass could be from the frame but it could very much so be from the usually hourglass, symbol of Lu Guang's obsession.
Another interesting detail is this shot:
Tumblr media
Thanks to the watch, we know those are Lu Guang's hands but it is a pose we only see Cheng Xiaoshi takes. Because this is the "sponsors screen", this became Cheng Xiaoshi's signature move to me. We see the story through Lu Guang's perspective, but it's really Cheng Xiaoshi that we should focus on, here.
This particular sequence also offers a reverse: a fall, the "frame" sign with hands, one of the hand making a sign to "look up"/"go back up", then we are pulled up. It is the same narrative as "VORTEX" but this time we find ourselves on the other end, the correct order.
"Break!" lyrics once again seem to fit to Lu Guang more (and I think that's the point, "You're not just a tool" can only be addressed to CXS because that's how Lu Guang and Qiao Ling usually call him). Although the word break is used only once in the song ("make or break a leg"), the action of BREAKing is Cheng Xiaoshi's. Plus, the broken glass is the hourglass.
Tumblr media
Speaking of broken glass and reflection, this shot of Lu Guang and Cheng Xiaoshi in reverse in "VORTEX"- I reversed it according to the background (falling down). Once more, Cheng Xiaoshi is the main body, Lu Guang is not actually there. He is a reflection.
Tumblr media
In a way, this theory only gives more sense to "XETROVerthink": Lu Guang appears in the hourglass but it's Cheng Xiaoshi who swims to him in order to save him, not the other way around. The rest of this PV is Cheng Xiaoshi's POV too.
Tumblr media
Aside from the visual theme that shows basically everything we need to know about Link Click's plot, you have obviously the lyrics. As much as "VORTEX" and both ENDs, they could be read as Lu Guang or Cheng Xiaoshi's pov. But like I said at the beginning of this meta, some lines aren't working for Lu Guang at all.
There has been a hint of Lu Guang trying to stay away, in Lu Guang's flash back, but failing. We don't know if these memories belong to the timeline we're currently watching or not, but they egg us on the very real possibility that Lu Guang might chose to stay away from Cheng Xiaoshi in order to save his life. After all, their powers are complimentary and work together. Their side hustle depends on this. Arguably, and this is an realistic conclusion to draw: this job is what kills Cheng Xiaoshi. It's only natural to suppose he wouldn't die if Lu Guang wasn't in his life.
Your eyes, there ain't nowhere left to hide behind Something secretive hidden inside your mind If it ain't for your misguided taste I'd turn out so ordinary Fabulously un-addictively bore out my own brain Well, don't you feel sorry I'll love where I'm going now
Blue: Diving into Lu Guang's past/picture, could uncovered all secrets, Cheng Xiaoshi could understand him and, from this perspective, there is no possibility to hide anything.
Pink: Cheng Xiaoshi wants to correct Lu Guang's correction, he doesn't want to live an ordinary and boring life Lu Guang isn't a part of. He likes their side hustle as well, I think, because, as I said in the past regarding LCLA, he wants to help people, it's part of his core.
Possibly, our favorite unreliable narrator actually went through it in the end. This hopefully won't stick, not if Cheng Xiaoshi has something to say about it.
Cheng Xiaoshi wouldn't really want things any other way, and that's why this theory of him trying to get Lu Guang back into his storyline seems so plausible to me. Good or bad memories, he just want his partner back.
Because, after all, doesn't it sound like a line someone who remembers a friend who doesn't exist would say?
Chase you to the end of the world just to say your name once more.
I always thought it was a strange way to put it. Most of the time, songs and movies say the opposite "I want to hear you call my name one last time." You know the kind. But here, he wants to say it. Because he lives in a world where no one with that name exists!!
Food for thought. šŸ‘€

So I finished reading a danmei novel for the very first time (it's SVSSS)
Tumblr media
Spoiler Alert
(And incoming rant...)
So I just finished reeading the volume 4 of SVSSS, and even before i finished it i knew i have to talk about it and let my thoughts out somehow and here we are. My danmei journey started not too long ago with MDZS donghua before i found myself buying physical copies of SVSSS. Although my first novel was 2ha but I read till volume 6 to keep it on hold and finished this one instead.
Now that i am done, before i make it too long i will just leave some snippets of audacious thoughts here which may or may not be agreed upon -
I really wanted to like LBH, but in the end I just couldn't, some parts and traits of his character just don't sit well with me. I mainly hate his manipulative part, and I just don't understand why someone like Shen Yuan/SQQ falls for it again and again.
Zhuzhi lang is indeed a lovable character, but I just can't forgive him for killing Gongyi Xiao. The only time I shed tears while reading this novel was when we hear about his death and how SQQ was then remembering how GYX told him he would visit his peak after everything is over. (I was still holding on to that hope that he will be miraculously alive *sob*)
I found Tianlang-Jun to be a decent character, even more decent than his own son. I mean, yeah LBH went through traumatic periods but TLJ also went through miserable times while sealed. But in the end he just let all of it go while his son kept getting jealous and vicious towards every human being close to SQQ.
SQH and MBJ is a good ship. I would love to know more about them I need more Moshang content (this everyone will agree i know)
In that one interview chapter at volume 4 SQH's comment about Bingqiu being the kindergartner and his teacher, I can't agree more. Also his comment about how dating LBH must be exhausting and annoying was so true that I just don't understand why SQQ accepts all this šŸ˜­šŸ˜­
I wish I could learn more about Liu Mingyan's thought process while writing Regrets of Chunshan.
I saw a Youtube comment that said - "In SVSSS, almost every character can be shipped with SQQ" and I couldn't agree more! SQQxYQY, SQQxLQG and etc. all are good ship material.
I felt like there were more background plots that could be explored (like what happened to Huan Hua Palace after, or how TLJ was doing, or some more info and background about certain characters etc). In this way I feel like Shen Yuan, heh
The novel art is pretty, but the way LBH was described about his looks and beauty, I somehow didn't feel it through the art. My fav character ranking according to art would be Tianlang Junā†’Mobei Junā†’SQQ, even though I really like curly hair.
At this point people might think I am a LBH hater, but really I am not, or at least I don't want to be. But I just really think SQQ deserved a better peaceful life at CQ Mountain, around his disciples and sect brothers that really adore him like a family. I really hated the ending in Vol 3 where SQQ left the mountain with LBH in this respect. Well at least in vol 4 it said that the two come to the mountain from time to time so I guess I can calm down a bit.
I really, really like Shen Qingqiu. He's a diva. But I just don't understand...some of his choices. But I guess I will just leave it at that.
This is my first time finishing a danmei novel as I mentioned already, so please go easy on me, even though I may have said things that might spark an argument. Overall I think it was a good experience and I'm looking forward to reading more novels. Feel free to give me some recommendations!

Alright, I'm going to write my own thoughts down on the situation, sorry if this gets rambly
First of all, Shubble is so brave for speaking up, it's really hard for victims to speak up against there abusers in a public setting and she deserves all the respect in the world for it
That being said we do need to be mindful to give her space, this was a really traumatic thing for her and we all need to be mindful of that, give her room to breath.
On the same lines, don't go after other ccs for not ""releasing statements"", content creators aren't companies, there people. Don't get on at them for not publicly supporting Shubble, especially since there undoubtedly doing it in private, which is probably better than shoving it out there for millions of people to see. Let people support there friend in a way they and shubble are confortable with, if shubble wants them to say something or they think they need to say something themselves, they will say it.
It's like Pearl said, just because you don't see something happening publicly doesn't mean it isn't happening
Also, don't jump to call Tommy or Phil or Grian or anyone else enablers because they haven't said anything, they'll need time to process this too, it's hard to find out that your friend is a domestic abuser, let them process this in piece and don't try to cancel them over nothing like a fool. (People like Tommy will need time especially since Wilbur befriended them when they were young and by all accounts manipulated them too)
If anyone of these people have anything they feel they need to say they'll say it when there good and ready, good life tip folks:Don't Harass People. Especially if they have almost nothing to do with this (honestly Saw someone say they were going to go on to fucking RT about this despite him not knowing either person very well, the fuck)
I know why people do it, they want to make sure there favourite content creators aren't also bad, but they are people and they deserve respect, I can garentee you that almost no Qsmp or Hermitcraft or Other MCYT member who knew him stands with Wilbur
(Also if anyone brings Techno into this fuck right off let the man rest.)
Also, some brain dead morons are saying that people calling out wilbur are doing it for clout and that they should have done it sooner, but most of the abuse happened in private, and wilbur manipulated others, many wouldn't have realised anything was wrong and if they did its still better and more respectful to come forward after shubble since its HER story to tell.
(This attack also doesn't work anymore because we have things like tubbos stream, where he actively discourages his chat from treating him like a hero for speaking out, but yeah sure they all don't give a shit about shubble and just want to make themselves look better, fuck outta here)
Now, if your a former wilbur fan, let me make this super clear
DONT WATCH HIM AND DONT LISTEN TO HIS MUSIC
"BuT SePuRaTe ThE ArT FrOm ThE Arti-
Nah. That doesn't work here. You can separate a book or game or movie, you can't with a cc. Its there face, there voice, there personality. Find a different band, find a different CC to watch. There are other options, I know it sucks to find out someone you like did an awful thing,but that doesn't mean we should support those people for our sakes, especially when people were actively hurt by there actions. Trust me everyone, this will get better, things will go back to how they were before
Finally, this should go without saying, Fuck William Gold to the core of teh fucking earth. And any who still support him.
He is a raging egotistical manipulator and abuser. don't blame people for not seeing it sooner, no one can do that. What we can do though is blame people who still wholeheartedly support him and his actions.
He has not "changed" nor will he ever at the rate at which he's going. He's still a egomaniac who's more concerned with saving his image than actually apologising for his actions, even then an apology wouldn't fix all he's done,it would just be closer and a jumping off point to be better, but he can't even fucking do that.
If wilbur does reflect and grow, good on him, but if he doesn't then I can say with absolute certainty we wouldn't fucking miss him.
Fuck Wilbur. Support Shelbym

Weaving Webs CH1
It is time for @invisobang ! I wrote a fic and the wonderful @pricklenettle did some fantastic art that you'll see embedded through out the fic!
You can check out the fic here or on AO3!
If you like this consider dropping us both a follow!
Warnings: Body horror, manipulation, Spectra is her own content warning, Burns, Spider - for like 2 chapters then it goes away.
The Fenton parents were there when the accident happened, they saw Danny die in an act of sabotage. Now theyā€™re just trying to go on with the strange ghost that is all that's left of Danny. While their old college friend is wondering where the subjects of his revenge are.
[Next]
Chapter One - The Accident
The metal panel came free with a few plinks of screws onto the floor making Danny cringe. He knew heā€™d be the one scrounging around on the floor looking for them later. His Dad grinned not at all phased by the extra work he was creating. Danny leaned over to look and was fairly certain on catching sight of the tangled mess of cables that this was his Dadā€™s work.
ā€œAlright Danno, I need you to get your small hands in there. Diagnostics say some of the wires didnā€™t get plugged in right,ā€ he explained with a little chuckle at his own mistake, ā€œIā€™d fix it but now the panelingā€™s on I donā€™t fit.ā€
ā€œGot it, know which ones?ā€ Danny asked, eyeing the mess.
ā€œNope, some of the red ones? Some of the greens too. Just give them all a little extra push!ā€ His Dad said before bounding off out of the portal frame to work on some other part of it.
Danny sighed and rolled his eyes, typical Dad. He used a finger to pull aside a bunch of wires to see the circuit board behind but the wires pulled others and obscured it. He huffed a little, the visor of his white hazmat suit fogging up a little before it faded. He was going to have to fix the cable management if he was going to make any progress.
As Danny picked his way through the tangled chaos of unlabeled cables he couldnā€™t help but be reminded of a spider web. Every few moves of his hand he had to untangle himself Just to get another wire out of the tangle and neatly with the others of its colour. He had to hope that the colours had some kind of system. Even if they didnā€™t at least theyā€™d be able to see the board.
ā€œJack? Did you change this setting?ā€ he heard from out in the lab.
ā€œUm nope, well maybe,ā€ he could almost hear his Dadā€™s awkward shrug.
There was the clacking of keys, ā€œthatā€™s a bit odd.ā€
ā€œHuummm, maybe if we change that bit. That should get it, right?ā€
A spark darted from the connected wire as he disconnected it from the board and he swiftly pulled back his hands. Even with the hazmat he wasn't going to risk it. It might not be the vibrant colours of his parentsā€™ ones but that didnā€™t mean it was more professionally made. His Dad made each of them by hand. Said they needed a bit more oomph to deal with ectoplasm. He wasnā€™t sure how effective it would really be.
ā€œMom? The powers on!ā€ He called out to them.
It wasn't meant to be. His dad had said it was off. Either he forgot, not impossible. Or something was wrong with the power system. If that was the case they'd have to shut it all down. It would be months more work before they'd be ready. Danny couldnā€™t help feeling a little disappointed at that thought. He didnā€™t believe it would really work but he wanted it to. Wanted it for his parents. Wanted it for the hours he'd poured in as a way to learn engineering.
ā€œWhat? No itā€™s not,ā€ his Mom replied confused, ā€œnone of the systems are reporting that.ā€
ā€œI unplugged it, I definitely unplugged it. Whereā€™s that cable?ā€ His Dad insisted.
ā€œWhat theā€¦ Danny! Move now!ā€ His Mom yelled.
Danny startled and backed away from the panel. There was a high pitched whine building behind him. He scrambled forward, his heavy bulky hazmat boots catching on themselves and every cable. There was a loud hiss and the safety shield started to descend. The power wasnā€™t just on, the portal was activating.
ā€œShit, no, not yet,ā€ his Mom cursed, her hands practically slamming across the keys, ā€œJack pull the emergency breaker!ā€
ā€œOn it!ā€
He stumbled trying to crouch enough to pass under the descending shield. His head bounced in the helmet as he hit the floor. He winced and his head spun. It took a moment too long for him to get his bearings and start moving. He crawled as fast as he could, racing against the descending shield. He pulled back his hand just as the shield descended, the tips of his glove caught between reinforced glass and the metal tiled floor. He pulled it free with some effort, the fingers tearing.
ā€œBreakerā€™s not stopping it Mads!ā€
Danny pulled himself up leaning against the glass. He flinched back as his Dad slammed the Fenton Anti Creep Stick into the reinforced glass with an echoing bang. His Mom was at the console frantically trying to get control of the machine.
He could feel a tingle as the charge in the air increased, his hair standing on end. An ominous warning that the Hazmat was no longer sealed. Electric sparks darted from metal surface to metal surface. The growing green glow that was building behind him reflected in the safety glass that trapped him there. The air grew a strange hot cold. There was a crackle like lightning and then he was engulfed in burning cold green.

I think I've found one of the key reasons why I prefer the old Expanded Universe to the current Star Wars content: Unique types of villains.
More specifically, people who weren't just Evil Force Users With Long Robes And Red Lightsabers. While there were always a few Darth Vader-clones that popped up to fill up space, so many of the Arc Villains were distinct not just in personality, but also how they were dangerous.
Grand Admiral Thrawn was a military tactician, which wasn't the point of any of the main villains in the Original Trilogy. Grand Moff Tarkin was a "Build a bigger superweapon and bludgeon the galaxy into submission" kind of villain, and Vader and the Emperor were mystical dark wizards. This isn't a complaint or criticism, but just pointing out that military tactics were never on display in the films since that wasn't the type of story they were telling. But Thrawn didn't have prophetic powers or Destiny, he had to analyze and plan around what he could learn about his adversaries. It's a different type of fight than Literal Magic. In the original Thrawn Trilogy, Captain Pellaeon frequently internally narrates how different Thrawn's style of leadership was to either Vader or the Emperor (Even if his art-analysis did verge on magic by itself).
Ysanne Isard was a political and/or espionage manipulator, which was even less a point of the Original Trilogy than military tactics were. She took advantage of the realities of actually needing to build a nation out of an underground military movement. With all of the dirty gutter politics, self-serving agendas, and logistics that doom so many revolutionary movements. I'm not as big a fan of her arc as I was when I was younger (I re-read the Rogue Squadron novels a few years ago and the writing quality is not as good as I remember, and Isard's plans frankly don't hold a lot of water), but the concept is still fantastic.
Warlord Zsinj on the surface seems like a merger of Thrawn and Isard -- he's a military commander who specializes in espionage -- but he also has a big focus that neither of them demonstrated: Business. While he still blows stuff up with his giant space ships and is sowing dissent through brainwashing and spycraft, he's simultaneously establishing a galaxy-wide network of completely-legitimate commercial businesses that he owns through untraceable pseudonyms. They fund his campaigns, give him influence on planets outside of his direct control, and allow him to control resources without any of his adversaries even being aware of it.
Even one-shot enemies like the Ssi-ruuk were so unique: They're invading the galaxy because their technology is powered by living souls and they want to harvest all life in the galaxy. That's messed up, and so distinct from the general "Take over the world" motivation of the Empire.
But as time went on, more and more of the enemies were just "Darth Vader Again". Another Jedi who fell to the Dark Side, or another long-lost schism of the Sith who rediscovered mainstream galactic society, or some other thing that is eventually resolved by a one-on-one lightsaber duel and a personal grudge against the Skywalker or Solo families. It definitely felt like they were out of ideas and kept running through the same villains over and over again.
This kicked into high gear after the Prequels came out, and continued in the new continuity after the EU was rebranded as "Legends".
I wish we could go back to the idea that there could be an enemy who wasn't super powerful in the force and consumed by Hatred Of The Jedi. With their own skills, their own methods, and something that makes them more than just another wannabe-Sauron. Pirates who are just pirates, marauding ex-Imperial Warlords who are just marauding ex-Imperial Warlords, and corrupt politicians who are just corrupt politicians, instead of revealing that Palpatine returned (somehow) all over again.

āœØ My BSD hot takes/unpopular opinions āœØ:
1. Identifying BSD characters as Queer, is not problematic. STOP being so Heteronormative. Gay characters are not gonna kill you.
If I see another "BuT tHe ChArAcTeRs nEvEr SaId tHeY aRe GaY" I would bomb you šŸ’£/j
2. Skk/SSKK/Fyolai/other popular ships, exist because people like it. If you don't ship them, don't engage with their content. Not all shippers act crazy and toxic. Stop blaming everything on shippers.
3. Atsushi/Kyouka is problematic, stop justifying it with "only 4 year age gap". Kyouka is a CHILD, ship her with Kenji if you want. Atsushi, like a normal 18 year old would never look at a highschool freshman and date her. Even if they date in the future, he knew her when she was younger and they had a sibling like dynamic. Lucy is a way better love interest to Atsushi (Don't know if this is an unpopular opinion tho, but I saw some people justifying it šŸ˜šŸ˜šŸ˜)
4. DAZAI IS NOT EVIL. HE IS FAR FROM EVIL. He is, despite being super popular and the face of BSD, the most mischaracterized and villified character. Morally grey characters exist??!!!
5. Mori is a way worse person than Dazai ever was.
6. PM members get a free pass for any heinous crime they commit by being hot or babygirl-ified (still love them tho, we do not often discuss how bad their actions have been, you can like criminals and acknowledge they are criminals in fiction. I would add DoA to this too, but it's worse with the PM)
7. Akutagawa's abuse of Kyouka shouldn't be forgotten just because Dazai abused Akutagawa.
8. Mori emotionally manipulated and abused Dazai when he was a teen. Just because it wasn't physical, doesn't mean it was nothing.
9. Atsushi is NOT a soft boy, he is way bitter, salty and sarcastic than we give him credit
10. Poe is important to Ranpo and their friendship/relationship is wholesome as hell
11. Ranpo and Yosano's friendship is way better than them being in a relationship in the future
12. FukuFuku is better than Fukumori (imo!!!!)
13. Buying real authors work after watching BSD is actually a really good thing, since more Gen z kids (or other people) will read classics
14. There are layers to Atsushi and Akutagawa relationship/rivalry, and they have the MOST important relationship (not meaning romantic, just in general) in the entire canon.
15. Kunikida and Yosano could be a power couple
16. Fyodor is not a great villain (yet)
17. Nikolai CARRIES the DoA
18. Sigma shouldn't be in the ADA, he needs a happy home, family and some time to adjust to normal life
19. Q and Elise are both underused characters and could become a great dynamic
20. Ango deserves more love, the amount of pressure and stress he deals with is INSANE
21. It's OKAY if everyone joins the fandom for Dazai or skk (I did at first too!!)
22. Higuchi is annoying as hell. I do not get her hype, I like her but not as much as most people (just personal opinion, do not flame me šŸ˜­)
23. Everyone in The Guild is forgettable or boring (except Fitzgerald, Poe and Lucy. I like Louisa, but I forget her all the time)
24. Hetero ships are just not that great/interesting in BSD to me šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø (except maybe AtsuLucy or rare pairs) and female characters are not best utilised, I wish they play more major roles (can't wait for Agatha to arrive!!)
25. Some fan theories/arts get the story better than "canon" stuff at times. Fanon is NOT always the worst (sometimes enjoyable when the canon gets too dark or sad)
26. Toxic ships are okay in fiction as long as they are legal. Humans like toxic things, we consume it like junk food šŸ’…šŸ»
(These are all personal opinions of mine and do not matter. Feel free to disagree. But, do not hate or be toxic!!!! šŸ˜‡šŸ˜‡šŸ˜‡šŸ˜‡)
(PS: I compiled all these because of posts I have seen in, Reddit, Pinterest, Twitter and sometimes Tiktok. These aren't really abt you Tumblr folks. I meant to post this on reddit but did not have the courage or mental strength lol)

HI ABSOLUTELY OBSESSED W YOUR RECENT WALLY HCSšŸ˜¢šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ need more If you're still taking writing requests, could you do some jealous Wally headcanons?šŸ¤­šŸ¤­šŸ¤­ he just seems like the type to be a yandere thatā€™s obsessed w you
eeee thank you very much lovely anon!!! šŸ™ˆšŸ’–šŸ’–šŸ’– writing these Wally headcanons is so fun!!! and ohohoho, i most certainly can. buckle up šŸ˜‰ content warnings for jealous, manipulative, borderline abusive behaviour including stalking, as well as Eldritch powers and hypnosis. this is for the yandere!Wally fans! :3c
Jealous!Wally Darling x Reader headcanons
šŸŽ Wally's jealousy isn't overt, but he can't fool you. at first you thought it must all be in your head; that warm smile of Wally's becoming static, frozen, when aimed at your new friend who is taking up a little more of your time today than usual. yet the more time you spend with this friend, the more you find Wally's pleasant faƧade slipping. there's an unnerving edge to his voice when he asks, "Did you have a good time?", and his usual stimming - taps and touches with a charming, unrhythmic musicality - now sound like harsh, stinging slaps. you try to reassure Wally that you aren't replacing him, but Wally laughs a little too loud, and pretends like nothing is wrong. "I don't mind!" says Wally. "After all: I know that you're my best friend."
šŸŽ when Wally's jealousy increases, he takes more extreme measures - by defacing your image. you come home one day after a lovely outing with your new pal, happy but exhausted. you make your way to your bedroom, but are horrified to find the place in shambles. your drawers have been yanked out and overturned, and sheaves of paper scatter the floor like a tornado just cleaved through your window. shaking, you pick up a piece of paper...only to find it's a photograph of you and your friend, taken from a distance and without your knowledge. the photograph is scribbled over with a violent scrawl of red crayon. panicked, you pick through the other photographs, and find that every single one is ruined: angry art-marks slashing through your smiling faces. you're frightened and angry, and you go straight to Wally's Home to confront him, clutching fistfuls of photographs and trembling with the adrenaline. yet Wally looks lazily over the photos, his eyes betraying nothing. "I don't know why someone would do this," says Wally. "But whoever did sure seems to care about you."
šŸŽ although you try to distance yourself from Wally after that, he doesn't take well to being abandoned. one morning you're just stepping over the threshold of your home, ready to meet your friend - when you lock eyes with Wally. he's standing a short distance away, with his arms tucked politely behind his back. "Going somewhere?" Wally asks. as he does, his pupils balloon, and his eyelids peel back to reveal the full extent of his scleras. a sick wave of vertigo crashes into you, and you have to grab the doorframe to keep your balance. "No...I don't think so," you say, your voice coming out weak. "That's good," says Wally. he moves towards you, and as he gets closer, a crackling, ringing static builds on the inside of your skull, getting louder with every soft step of Wally's shoes on the grass. your brain swims through a new, impossibly dense fog, and your knees nearly give out. Wally - when did he appear at your side? - slips a hand around your waist, and guides you gently away from the sunlight and back into your living room. "I think we should spend more time together," says Wally, in a way which is not a suggestion. you find yourself nodding. of course you should. Wally's your best friend...isn't he? always fun to write a darker side to Wally - i hope you like this one šŸ„°
