#mean rain 2k23

[forlorn-crows]

Dew trying to mop the floors in the kitchen, in a skirt, no underwear, vibrating plug in his ass, and every time a little bit of cum drips to the floor, Rain makes him start over

the way an anon sent this immediately after you is insane. one might say a little suspicious

BUT

we continue on the mean rain train

“You want me to what?!”

Dew looks at Rain, bewildered.

“Come on, I wanna see how wet you can get.” Rain tucks a stray hair behind Dew’s horns. The fire ghoul jerks his head away, but only after a moment. “Give me a little show?”

He doesn’t understand where these moods spawn from. But Rain’s looking at him like he’s his next meal, and he’s not entirely sure he hates this idea. It’s completely ridiculous, but—

“Fine,” Dew says quietly, almost imperceptibly.

“What was that, little ember?”

“Yes. Fine. Bastard.”

He’d do a lot of things for Rain, and apparently that includes wearing a silky slip skirt, no underwear, absolutely quivering from the vibrating plug up his ass. He’s given him the task of mopping the floors, Rain watching like a raptor from the kitchen counter, remote in hand. Dew’s cock is straining against the line of elastic at his hips, wet patch forming on the silk. He thanks Satan for his elemental transition, otherwise he’d be dripping with slick by now, too.

“You’re doing so well, ember. I haven’t seen a drop yet.” Rain turns the level up a notch.

“F-fuck,” he whines, clutching the mop handle.

“Oh, that’s lovely,” Rain coos, taunting. “You make such pretty noises.”

“Oh, you—” Dew bites his lip, thighs really starting to tremble now. “You can’t talk to me like that, I’ll—fuck—I’ll—” He can feel a bead of precum well up, wills it to soak in next to the rest.

“Or you’ll what?” Rain looks him up and down, amused. He presses another button, changing the vibration pattern. It stops and starts, and his cock kicks with each buzz.

Dew is whimpering now, unable to answer.

Rain gets up and pads over to him, looming over his short form. The buzzing is audible, reverberating through his body. Dew is hanging his head, hips involuntarily canting against the mop handle, eyes squeezed shut. He’s in agony. Blissful, sinful, agony.

“Or you’ll what, droplet?” He repeats, voice low and demanding.

“C-cum, fuck, I’ll cum if you don’t shut up,” Dew babbles.

“Will you?” Rain says huskily. “Cream all over yourself in that hot little skirt? I can see how wet you are.” Rain cranks up the intensity.

“Fuck yeah, yeah,” he moans, knees threatening to buckle as he folds in on himself.

“So do it. I’m not stopping you.” He switches the vibration back to constant, turning it up one last notch. The force of it sends Dew to his knees as he cums with a shout, untouched, muscles clenching on the offending silicone. Hot spurts dribble from the tip of his cock, drooling down his length and inevitably dripping onto the freshly cleaned floor.

“Oh, baby,” Rain coos cruelly. He turns down the vibe’s intensity but doesn’t reduce it fully to zero. It’s a relief, but it’s still present enough to make Dew shudder with overstimulation. Rain cocks his head and stares at the drops of cum near Dew’s knees. The fire ghoul realizes too late that he’s failed.

“Start over.”

Make the multi ghoul cry 2k23

WC: 1540

Relationship: Swiss/Rain/Dewdrop

Tags: Threesome, vaginal sex, crying, choking, bondage, orgasm delay/denial, multiple orgasms, vaginal fingering, cunnilingus (the last three only mentioned), transmasc dewdrop, grinding, mean rain

Swiss chokes himself with his guitar strap during a Ritual, Rain doesn't like that, so he decide to punish him. He cries.

Notes: The fact that I saw Swiss doing that with my own eyes... I'm not okay. Now with part two and three.

Read under the cut or on AO3.

In retrospect, this may have been a bad idea. He probably shouldn’t have done that.

But it’s Swiss, and if a person constantly making bad decisions had a definition it would be his name.

On their last Ritual, in Berlin, Swiss thought, but he couldn’t be sure with how all the shows in all the cities bled together at this point, he was fooling around with his guitar, as usual. What wasn’t usual, though, was when he twisted it on the strap, wrapping it around his neck. He thought it would be fun, the fans certainly did eat it up.

Swiss didn’t predict two things, though.

One, that he may have choked himself a bit too hard and with all the adrenaline, he accidentally got hard.

Second, that Rain noticed.

That’s how he ended up in his current predicament.

Naked, legs tied to one end on their bed with Dew’s guitar strap, arms bound together with Rain’s. His own strap wound tight around his neck and the bed, choking the multi ghoul with every slight movement.

That wasn’t the worst, though. What was, was Rain having Dewdrop bent over the edge of the same bed Swiss was laying on and fucking into him with slow but purposeful thrusts. The fire ghoul’s face was shoved into the bedding just next to Swiss’ legs and he could see the drool escaping Dewdrop’s mouth and his little tits bouncing with every thrust Rain gave him all to well. 

Swiss was in misery.

This was a punishment, Rain didn’t have to say it, but he did anyway, making it very clear, “What a fucking slut you are, you cannot contain yourself even a bit, even in front of seven thousand people? You got hard there!”

It went downhill from then, Rain manhandling him with much more force than anyone would expect looking at the lanky water ghoul. Dewdrop was an accident, though, he got interested in Swiss’ moans and whimpers at the rough handling and slipped into the room to join in on the fun. It was technically his idea with the guitar straps, and Rain couldn’t be more grateful for his brilliantly kinky mind.

The fire ghoul was well on his way to his third orgasm of the night, first on Rain’s fingers, and second on his tongue. It was only fair for the third to be on his cock. He gripped Dewdrop's hair just at the base of his skull, keeping his face in the mattress. His thighs were shaking so much that Rain had to use his other hand to hold him up by his hips in a bruising grip in order for the small ghoul to not literally fall off the bed.

Swiss was painfully hard for what seemed, and might actually be, hours now, head of his cock flushed purple, a puddle of precum in the hollow of his hip and his belly button. They didn't touch him anywhere even with a tip of their fingers, nothing. And with the way he was tied there was no way for him to do anything, especially with the strap around his neck. It was really fucking tight.

“R- Rainy,” Dewdrop whined, fists clenching and unclenching on the sheets.

“You close again, my pretty boy?” Rain asked, smoothing a hand over the fire ghoul’s sweaty back. All he could manage in response was squeezing around Rain and whining pathetically, tears in his eyes. He leaned down, his chest against Dewdrop’s back as he sneaked one of his hands to rub his clit, “Come on, then, baby.”

And come Dewdrop did, crying out and shaking so hard Rain had to hold him steady as he came down. The water ghoul gently slid out of his sopping cunt and gathered the fucked out ghoul in his arms. Dewdrop whimpered, clinging to Rain as he placed him down onto the small couch on the other side of the room and gave him a blanket, “Now, be a good boy and let me take care of that slut there, yes?”

The fire ghoul nodded, curling into a ball with a blanket around his shoulders. Rain walked back to the bed, hard cock bouncing as he walked, where Swiss was biting down on his own tongue so hard it was actually bleeding. Rain told him to be quiet, after all.

“What should I do with you, hm?” he wondered, standing above the multi ghoul with arms crossed over his chest. 

It wasn’t really a question, but Swiss was too far gone to not start begging, “Rain, Rainy, sweetheart, please, please, I’m begging you-”

“I didn’t say you could speak,” they interrupted him, and a chill went through him even despite the heat of the room, “but I like when you beg, so I’ll let that slide. You can keep doing that, actually.”

Swiss nearly cried in relief, as slight as it was,”T- thank you Rainy, please, do something, touch me, anything, please, sweetheart.”

“I’m quite tired actually, so I won't make you wait too long,” he yawned for good measure, “I wouldn’t leave you like that to take a nap, I’m not that cruel, you know?”

He did that before, but Swiss did have enough brain power left to not point that out, “No, y- you’re not.”

“Hm, sure,” Rain laughed, finally climbing onto the bed. He was so close, the anticipation was killing Swiss, but he still didn’t touch him.

The water ghoul straddled Swiss, so very carefully, as to not give him the reward of even the tiniest of touches. It was torture for him, everyone knew he was the type to have to touch his partners everywhere and anywhere, loving squishing them in his arms or being squished in someones, having every point of contact possible.

“Sweetheart, doll, please, I’m- hngh,” the multi ghoul started babbling again, but got cut off as Rain dropped his hips sitting down on his cock. Not literally, not in the way Swiss would want. Just sitting down on it, squishing it between his plush ass and Swiss’ own belly. He let out a breathy moan, his head shooting up, the guitar strap around his neck tightening and making him choke on his own spit.

“Huh, pathetic whore, I barely touched you,” Rain chuckled, curling a hand around his own cock, and Swiss felt the tears in his eyes well up even more, threatening to spill. “Aw, you’re gonna cry? Go on then, cry.”

He moved then, stroking his dick and grinding the multi ghoul’s into his belly even more and his tears fell. He wheezed out a choked out sob, hands straining against the guitar strap binding them.

“I told you I was tired, better cum quickly if you don’t want to be left hanging,” Rain whispered, quiet enough that he wouldn’t be surprised if Swiss missed it, and that was probably his plan. Having fucked Dewdrop minutes before, Rain himself was very close, and it took only a few second for him to shoot copious amount of cum onto Swiss’ chest. The multi ghoul tried to bend his head down enough to catch some of the pearly liquid onto his stuck out tongue but that only made him choke again. And Rain laugh, “Cumslut.”

“Rainy, sweetheart, I- I need more, pleasy, my k- knot, I-” Swiss pleaded, feeling Rain’s wet hole just above the painful swell on the base of his cock.

“Nuh-uh, too much work,” the water ghoul yawned, still grinding slowly.

“I can take it,” came from Dewdrop, but his excitement was quickly snuffed out when Rain glared in his direction.

“Didn’t I tell you to be quiet?” he spat. “Got your princess treatment and decided to be a brat now?”

“No,” the fire ghoul mumbled, curling into himself again.

Rain scoffed, grinding down again and Swiss was powerless against the shock that went through his body when he felt the wet spade of Rain’s tail being shoved into his ass combined with the pressure on his dick. His back arched, the guitar strap choking him again, only adding to the pleasurable assault as his eyes rolled back. The multi ghoul’s orgasm crashed into him like a tidal wave, vision going white as he floated away from his own body. 

When Swiss got back, though, he was untied, though still sprawled out onto the bed. Dewdrop was curled in a ball just against his side, and Rain was nowhere to be seen. What he did notice, though, was that the orgasm that made him literally black out didn’t bring any relief. 

Right, no one took his knot.

Swiss groaned, desperation returning to him just as Rain returned to their room, dressed in his sleep shirt, “Welcome back.”

“Rainy, my knot, you know how it hurts, I’ve got to-” the multi ghoul tried, curling one of his sore arms around the small fire ghoul.

“Told you, I’m tired,” Rain shrugged. “Dew fell asleep already, too. Maybe tomorrow.”

Swiss could only nod, swallowing audibly, as the water ghoul hopped onto the bed and curled himself into his other side.

“Goodnight, love,” he whispered, pressing a soft kiss to Swiss’ still flushed neck.

“Nighty,” he answered, knowing he was not going to sleep well.

Looking as Cause / @papaslittlesunshine / Aurora x Mountain

MORE AURORA X MOUNTAIN CONTENT 2K23. This is both adorable and sexy. No one is immune to the tall and small dynamic. NO ONE.

No Man Taketh From / @st-danger / Aether x Copia

Ok this is GREAT. Saint managed to squeeze so many feelings into what could have been pwp. Anyways: Copia's first bj from Aether. Go read it.

[anotherghoul666]

I want to know the answer to so many of those questions for the ao3 wrapped. I'll settle for these though: 3, 9 and 28

Buddy, please, you could ask all of them and I'd jump for joy and answer every single one. Engagement is author food and I hunger like nobody's business XD If you want to know the answer to anything else, please send them over. Never hesitate to engage with me. I'd wager most authors would also love the engagement but I don't want to speak for everyone, so maybe check in first, but I LOVE it. I don't find it cringe, I don't find spam likes or reblogs annoying, I love asks, do your worst!

3. What work are you most proud of (regardless of kudos/hits)?

This Could All Be Yours! Because this beast was an ORDEAL to make. I actually pushed through and produced something that I can legit enjoy now that I've stepped away from it. So much shit happened while I was actively writing the stripper!AU. I wrote it through an insane work rush where I'd do 10 days in a row no breaks spent between my two jobs because of the stupid holiday season, have a day off to recover, then get shoved back in it again. I wrote it through a covid outbreak in my residents at job 1 from which we were not properly protected. I wrote it under the threat and stress of maybe catching covid again, maybe giving covid to my partner, maybe ruining the holidays for everybody cause both our families have immunocompromised members so we had to isolate preventively besides going to work. I wrote it through a good ol' bout of the Spicy Sad. I somehow managed to write Rain to a satisfying standard where I love how I wrote him now but while I was doing it? Holy shit did this cryptid stump me and made want to pull my hair out xD Every scene with him did not flow while I wrote, it was slow and painful and like pulling teeth. Many people have had me in their DMs complaining about why is our water boy so fucking hard to write XD And in the end it worked out so good and I love himmmmm but my god, I had another Rain fic planned right after this and NOPE XD I need a Rain break, I can't put myself through that again so soon hahaha. I can write him well but he's the ghoul I struggle with the most. So yeah. Through all that shit, I wrote almost 20k of what I find to be a very well build verse I'm excited to go back inside of, and I'm proud I managed to get it out in these circumstances!

9. Favorite pairing you wrote for this year?

Besides the obvious answer of polyghouls because I ship them all as a poly unit, my favorite dynamic is Swiss/Dew. These two together are magic. They're a fucking forest fire. They are so much fun to write, they're natural, they flow so well, they're painless, and I can push shit with them. Swiss is my go-to sadist, Dew is my go-to masochist (even if I 100% plan to make them switch, because all my ghouls are switches, and Dew has a mean sadistic streak too). I'm a fervent follower of the Hurt Dew 2k22 agenda and I shall pursue some version of Hurt Dew 2k23 too, honestly. It's just, right on target for what I love to write the most, these two. The banter, the back and forth, the meanness, the issues, the humiliation and shame sweet spot, the pain and shared delight, that manic electric energy they get into, on a backdrop of so much love and care and trust. They're the pair I realistically see pushing their kink the furthest in terms of edge play and real heavy shit that teeters lines and limits and I love that vibe. I cannot wait to write more of their brand of tender violence. I want to see see how much I can push with these two in the future, how far I'll take them in terms of the more niche or "extreme" kinks and edge play. That's the kind of exploration that really gets my experimentalist kinkster mind going!

28. Favorite work you wrote this year?

Drought or Euphoria probably. It's the most self-indulgent work I wrote for sure, in terms of saying fuck it, this will not be for everybody, but it's what gets me off, and I will write something I'd get off to if I found it in the wild. Turns out, more people than I had expected have suddenly found themselves with an sudden new interest for leather boots hahaha. Yall are welcome for the sexual awakening btw ;) But yeah. Most of the key elements in this fic are self indulgent. It's me pressing my own buttons. The gratuitous descriptions of Swiss and his salt and pepper facial hair that makes me weak in the knees. The whole "consensually twisting someone's arm and tricking them to make them do what you want" dynamic Swiss enacts on Dew. The descriptions of the smell and taste of leather, that's for me to have the scent in my nose and the taste in my mouth while I write. The boot worship. The obedience. The devotion. The humiliation. The shameless projection of my own oral fixation and enthusiasm for blow jobs on Dew, which is now something I've kept on his character for good and will write more of. The monstrous tongue which is me displaying my inner monster fucker. The denial ending. This shit is like, my own kryptonite. I will happily write for kinks that aren't my favs or aren't even kinks I have, for requests or exploration's sake. But oooh boy, when I get to just make an entire fic to be a collection of *my* shit, it's pure fun and it goes to the top of the favorite list real fast hahaha.

Can we get a part two of make the multi ghoul cry 👁️👁️

Make the multi (and fire) ghoul cry 2k23

WC: 1435

Pairing: Swiss/Rain/Dewdrop

Tags: Vaginal sex, knotting, transmasc dewdrop, sex toys as punishment, wreck them mean rain pt. 2

Technically a part two to one of my last works "Make the multi ghoul cry 2k23" a.k.a what will happen if Swiss and Dew fuck without Rain's permission while he's asleep.

Notes: Now with part three.

Read under the cut or on AO3.

“Swiss.”

“Swisssssssss.”

“SWISS!”

“W- what, for fucks sake, Dew, everything alright?” the multi ghoul finally jolted upright. He whined as he realised that Dewdrop woke him up after he actually managed to fall asleep, not being able to for hours because of the situation Rain left him in.

“He's asleep,” the fire ghoul stated, tilting his head in Rain’s general direction.

“Yeah, I was too,” Swiss yawned, “why?”

“What do you mean ‘why’? Your knot!?” Dewdrop whisper shouted, apparently frustrated with his mate’s obliviousness.

“You’re telling me that like it’s not my cock,” the multi ghoul whined, rubbing his eyes. “I’m fucking tired and horny, can you please be straightoforward?”

“I fucking can’t-,” he sighed. “Rain is asleep. You have a problem. I’m empty. You get it?”

“Oh… OH,” Swiss blushed as he finally got what Dewdrop meant. “He’ll kill us, you know that.”

“Only if he wakes up,” the fire ghoul shrugged. “Gotta make sure he doesn't.”

“He’ll put me into a cage with a plug up my ass for a month! I don’t know about you but even his ‘pretty boy’ won’t get alive out of that,” Swiss argued, teasing Dewdrop with words that, coming out of Rain’s mouth, always made him fold.

“So, you want to just get back to sleep with that,” Dewdrop pointed at the slightly tented blanket over Swiss’ lap, “and maybe be rewarded in the morning?”

“Rain will notice even if we don’t wake him, Dew…”

“Swisssssss,” the fire ghoul purred, crawling closer to the aforementioned, looking up at him through his eyelashes. “Let me take your knot, please.”

Ah, fuck.

There was no way Swiss would refuse after that, “You fucking menace, my old room, now.”

Dewdrop giggled, tumbling out of bed to slip through the door. Swiss followed, though more carefully, as his position carried more risk of waking Rain up. Just as he was out of their bedroom, he all but threw himself at the door to his old room, the one he abandoned when he and Dewdrop both moved into Rain’s. The bed was still made, it always was, specially with situations like that in mind.

When Swiss stumbled into it, hastily closing the door behind himself, Dewdrop was already half naked, currently in the process of getting rid of his boxers. Very wet boxers.

“Shit,” the multi ghoul panted, crawling up the bed, “Wanna eat you out but we don’t have time, fuck.”

“Tomorrow,” Dewdrop whined, pulling Swiss down for a kiss. “We really don’t have time so stick it in, come on.”

How could Swiss not follow that pretty instruction? He pulled his own boxers just enough for his painfully hard cock, with a small knot already, or rather still, there, to spring out. The multi ghoul grunted as he closed his fingers around it, guiding the sensitive head to rub against Dewdrop’s wet folds, making both of them shudder out a moan. 

The fire ghoul was plenty slick, perfect for Swiss to slide right in, up to the hilt. He gave both of them few seconds to adjust to the tightness before immediately setting a punishing pace, making Dewdrop’s eyes roll back into his head as he gripped the sheets with one hand, the other shoved into his mouth to muffle pathetic little sounds that were punched out of him with every thrust Swiss gave him. He could feel him in his fucking throat.

Swiss wasn’t much better, jaw clenched so tight he’d be worried about cracking his teeth if he’d be able to think about anything but the hot, wet pressure on his aching cock. He held Dewdrop’s narrow hips in bruising grip, pounding into him with no abandon. His knot grew with each trust, slamming into the fire ghoul’s cunt, ready to pop. Swiss wouldn’t do that, though, no matter how far gone he was, without his mate’s clear signal. He wasn’t the easiest to take.

“D- Dew, sweetheart, I-” he tried, interrupting himself with a moan, “I have to, p- please, can I?”

“F- fuck, yes, yes,” Dewdrop whined in response, squeezing his eyes shut. Well, with that Swiss wouldn’t argue.

He moved one of his hands over to the fire ghoul’s clit, softly pressing on it with his thumb, eliciting a gut wrenched squeal from his mate. He rubbed it in circles just as he slammed his knot in, blinding orgasm crashing into both of the ghouls. Swiss barely kept himself upright, chest heaving as if he just run a marathon, his clean hand wiping away a few tears that escaped Dewdrop’s squeezed eyes.

“Are you okay, sweetheart? I didn’t hurt you?” Swiss asked, carefully lifting Dewdrop up to have him sit in his lap as he knelt.

“N- no, ‘m okay,” his mate mumbled, shoving his face into the bigger ghoul’s chest. “We’ve gotta get back.”

“Yeah, fuck,” the multi ghoul sighed as he kissed Dewdrop’s forehead softly. “I’ll lift us up and I’ll carry you, okay? We’ll stay like that in bed, and wash up in the morning, Rainy gets up the last, anyway.”

“Okay, yeah.”

That’s what they did, Swiss gently getting up on shaky legs as Dewdrop wrapped his limbs all around him, clinging to his mate like a koala. They pulled it off, they’ll be fine, Rain won’t know.

Trouble appeared as they stood before the door to their shared room again. Swiss tried to use his tail to open it, and he was about to succeed when-

“Hello,” Rain opened the door from the inside.

Fuck.

“Had fun?” he asked, and a chill went down both Swiss’ and Dewdrop’s spines.

“Rainy, it hurt him, he couldn’t sleep, he-” the fire ghoul whimpered, grateful for his slightly sideways position in Swiss’ arms, he didn’t have to look straight into Rain’s eyes like this.

“I left him like that for a reason,” the bassist interrupted. “He’d get a reward in the morning, you know I’m not that cruel. You would too, if you just kept your hands, or rather your cunt, to yourself.”

“Rain, come o-” Swiss began, and got cut off with Rain’s tail slapping his ass. Hard.

“Shut up,” he growled, moving from the door. “Get in and on the bed. I’m still tired, I want to sleep. I’ll deal with you both in the morning.”

As fast as he could, but still carefully enough to not jostle Dewdrop too much, Swiss obeyed, settling in their nest, the small ghoul curled up on top of him. Rain laid back down as far on the edge as he could, not even thinking of granting either one of his mates a sliver of touch. And they all fell asleep.

All three of them were late for breakfast, but no one worried, being very well aware of their doings the previous evening. It was Sunday, no chores or rehearsals for anyone, just evening Mass, so when the trio finally emerged from their bedroom, everyone was a witness of Swiss’ and Dewdrop’s obvious misery.

Rain walked in first, hands behind his back and a cruel smirk painted on his face. His mates padded after him, five feet away from each other, heads hung low and shoulders slumped. Neither of them said a word when Rain sat next to Mountain on the big couch, jumping right into his conversation with Cumulus, so very casual.

Swiss and Dewdrop sat on the other, smaller couch, leaving an amount of space to fit two Aethers in between them. They both curled into themselves, keeping quiet.

The conversations around the common room came to a halt as a tiny pained whimper broke its way out of Dewdrop’s mouth, all eyes turning to the couch in the corner.

“Tadpole…” Mountain spoke quietly, surveying the damage, “what did you do to them?”

“They fucked up, at night,” Rain shrugged. “Punishment was in order, so they got it.”

“Should I even ask what was said punishment?” Aether mumbled, looking over at the two wrecked ghouls with a bit of sympathy in his eyes.

“Oh, not ‘was’, it still ‘is’,” he smirked, digging in his pocket, as he pulled out two small remotes. “Just look.”

Everyone’s eyes did indeed fall onto Swiss and Dewdrop, and even not seeing Rain, they knew when he pressed down on these remotes. Dewdrop whined into his arm, whole body going taut, while Swiss shuddered, squeezing his eyes. Rain then turned the toys' intensities back down one step, returning to his conversation with remaining ghouls.

“Swiss got a cage and a vibrating plug,” the water ghoul explained, “and Dew has a pretty little pink vibe in. I locked them to their tails, too.”
