Big progress!!
Here’s some last pictures of the mask before i add a thick layer of goo ( liquid glue + water + scrap papers. I’ll post another blog another time on how i make it )
I absolutely love how it’s turning out, it’s exactly how i imagined. Currently working with applying the goo, it just takes ages to dry up, in the mean time I’m working on alot of other accessories, I’ll post more updates later on.

Character I created for a Mutants and Masterminds RPG She is a mutant and result of a catastrophic experiment to try to give humans the possibility of mind control with a fungi substance, but things went wrong and now she is 98% fungi and 2% human. Oh well......
Also, she is super cute and I love her ( •̀ .̫ •́ )✧

I realize a Hermitcraft/Life Series based AU is inherently low on representation of people of color due to the playerbase, and appreciate the intent of adding a Black OC to the DDVAU comic. However, that choice does mean the one Black character we've seen in any of the comics is a villain?
Including more Black OCs who aren't villains, and/or including BigB as a character alongside his fellow Life Series members, would be something to consider to alleviate the implications of "only person of [marginalized identity] is a bad guy"
I understand the concern you present but it is important to remember that DDVAU takes place in an original universe to introduce an original story. The au exists as a way to expand and introduce this universe that we have previously created, where there are major characters, good and bad, of all colors and backgrounds. If u are interested to know more about the original story, here is the cast, ranging from the characters in nexus, the emerald soldiers, and neutral characters, all which we hope we can add in the future episodes. The full original cast includes a lot of marginalized identities on differing sides to create the more fleshed out original world, and not just one Black OC as a villain. Ceecee, the character who appeared in this chapter, is a mutant with mushroom/fungi powers, so his addition is for plot more than anything. He’s more than just an OC made to be a villain in this episode/comic, and has a more fleshed out and complex role in the original story he’s from. That said, we don't want to give spoilers of the other characters and their backstories in this ask, cuz we want to explore it properly in the comic. We want to show the characters of the story (At least their designs) to ease your concerns. DDVAU and the original story, Vigilantes, as we have stated before, is a story about my and maru's experience as latinos, not only in our countries history but also in our experience in english speaking spaces This is just the beginning of the story.

10 Character Dynamics the World Needs More of
Me handing out character dynamics like free samples at the Mall Food Court: “Take one! Or two! You’ll love it!”
I don’t care how many times these tropes have been done – write more of them. Write all of them. Fill out your author bingo card one by one.
1. “No one gets to kill you but me, Old Friend”
This. Right here. Primo rival content that I *live* for. All the juicy history between two old frenemies, the character drama, the backstory, the titillating unknown of what drove these two to rival status, bitter enemies that respect the heck out of each other, to the point that hell hath no fury should one get knocked down without the other’s consent.
And, of course, the moment where it seems all bets are off, when the rival comes to save their ass only to hand it back to them at a later date. The angst! The shipping fodder! Need I say more?
2. A bigger, badder villain, and their minion
You, reader, spend countless hours hating the guts of the big bad villain. They’re evil, they’re vile, they’re sadistic, heartless, irredeemable bastards. They killed your favorite character for shock value. The big bad moustache-twirling antagonist… is actually not the biggest fish in the story.
Either they’re coerced into doing evil as a puppet of the Bigger Bad, a tragic villain in their own right, or they have some reservation, some line even they won’t cross, someone else’s boots they have to kiss, someone who features in their nightmares, as they feature in the heroes. They end their stories dispatched without a thought by the Bigger Bad, or redeem themselves in death by taking out their masters. It never gets old.
3. A leader and their lancer: besties
You know what’s better than leaders and lancers who have zero faith in each other and are constantly bickering about who should be in charge? Leaders and their right-hands who adore each other (platonically). They have each other’s backs, they know each other’s greatest strengths and weaknesses and are each other’s perfect covers.
They can communicate with looks and vague gestures alone, they compliment each other’s flaws and misgivings, build up the rest of the team when they’re down on their luck, and should misfortune strike either, they pull out all the stops and show off exactly why they’re not to be trifled with, so that even the villain is afraid.
4. “I don’t even know who you are”
Oh, but you will. This one twists the knife, robbing the avenging hero of the importance in this world they’re desperate to maintain. They are their own hero, the sun revolves around them… but not to this one asshat that ruined their life and doesn’t even remember doing it.
An entire identity built upon the finding, fighting, and overcoming of this wrongdoer, every other goal in life cast aside for this one impossibility. Either the villain toys with the hero to make them irate, or gets suckerpunched by some pissant fueled by vengeance and spite and divine purpose to dole justice where justice is due.
6. The jaded badass and their naive ward
If the last 8 years of media is anything to go by, we still love this trope, whether it’s in a galaxy far, far away or a fungi-zombie post-apocalypse, or in the twilight hours of an era of legendary mutants. The best part of this trope? You get two often contradictory character types in one body. The pessimist, PTSD-ridden master of old with no living friends left and at least one dead love interest *and* beneath all that, still lies an atrophied heart of gold just waiting to be nurtured and revived.
The naive ward gets a hard lesson in how crappy the world can be, but also in how there’s still some goodness left, if their guardian cares about them. The jaded badass in turn, learns how good the world can be, that there’s something still worth fighting for beyond the next bottom of a bottle.
6. The enemy of my enemy (is my friend)
Similar to the “old friends”, this trope is often a result of the minioned Big Bad realizing they don’t want to be evil anymore. Or, bitter old rivals, sides of a war that have been fighting for generations, ideological polar opposites, fundamental polar opposites all come together when: Some evil schmuck managed to scare them both.
Doesn’t matter on what shaky ground this temporary alliance is built, or how long it lasts, equally-competent badasses on both sides finally work together and compliment each other’s strengths, and compensate for their weaknesses, in a way their teammates never could.
7. The irredeemable villain’s only wholesome connection
Not so irredeemable anymore, now are they? This trope messes with your head, taking a character you know has done heinous acts of terror, but who cares unflinchingly, unabashedly, about one thing – either their lover, their pet, their relative, or their kid.
This exists independently of the heroes and is not the same as an “oops I guess I’m your father” reveal. I’m talking this character who everyone is convinced cares about nothing and no one but themselves and their ambition still has a place in their soul for something they want to protect, they want to be loved by, or that they must spare from their atrocities.
8. Platonic Heterosexual Friendships
These two have seen each other at their most vulnerable. They’ve shared fears, dreams, desires, know each other’s deepest, darkest secrets. They’ve seen each other exhausted, frazzled, dressed up, dressed down, bloodied and broken and like a raw, open nerve. These two would die for each other, they would live for each other, and yet.
They’re not in love with each other. They’re wholly comfortable in each other’s spaces without lust and desire mucking up the atmosphere. Neither is the one, neither wants to be the one. They remain together not for the bonds of romance, but for the bonds of friendship, and nothing could be stronger.
10. The Ace and their best friend, the Self-Proclaimed Slut
These two respect the f*ck out of each other. One never mocks the other for lacking desire and in return, they’re never mocked for their promiscuity. They’ll never walk in each other’s shoes, but they don’t need to, to understand that’s just how some people are. They’re each other’s safest spaces when the world doesn’t take either of them seriously.
They’re each other’s biggest defenders against the bullies, presumers, the holier-than-thous who think they have it all figured out. They’re the perfect compliment to give advice on everything from relationships to the best outfits for an outing because there’s *zero sexual tension* between them. Or, maybe, if the stars align, they’re something more.
10. The redeeming villain, and their staunchest skeptic
This villain has lost everything – their home, the respect of their people, their worth, their evil ambition, their identity, and has begun working their way up from rock bottom doing everything in their power to show the heroes that they’re serious. They make amends, they break their bones proving themselves, they’ve swayed everyone they’ve wronged in the hero camp.
Except one. The one character that was probably their first defender, and got burned for it. The character that was naive enough to think this villain could be saved, and was wrong. The character that won’t be duped again without some serious drama and soul-bearing between them.
Now tell me which ones I missed!

Do you have any recommendations for TTRPGs where Body Horror is a central theme or mechanic? Preferably ones where themes like loss of agency or control over one's body are the focus. Thank you!!
THEME: Body Horror (Part 2!)
Hello there, I’m going to start by providing a link to the Body Horror recommendation post I put up back in 2022, before I move on to new recommendations!
Mutant Monster Machine Girls, by babblegumsam.
In MUTANT MONSTER MACHINE GIRLS, you play as a member of "The Girls", a group of queer misfits fighting against an oppressive anarcho-capitalist state ruled by The Corporation.
Each of you fights against them because all your lives have been ruined by The Man Responsible, a dangerous and cruel servant of The Corporation. Because of his actions and the nature of your evolutions, you can no longer return to your previous lives and the people you love.
Your only solution? Exact your ultraviolent revenge on him and bring peace to the city by force!
The Mutant part of Mutant Monster Machine Girls is pretty heavy on the body horror, although I think the other character options certainly have possibilities. Babblegumsam has a fondness for weaving trauma and emotion into many of their works, so you’ll likely find a lot of feelings about exploration and loss in this one. The game system uses a modified PbtA system, which gives you tokens that you can spend to add modifiers to your roll. (This same mechanic can be found in Apocalypse Keys!)
Soul Burner, by World Champ Game Co.
Soul Burner is a standalone tabletop role-playing game of adventuring ashen corpses wandering a volcanic ghostland in service of the gods of fate, protecting the timeline from imminent disaster by manifesting fractured memories to shape the world to their will.
Compatible with Mork Borg and inspired by Necronautilus, this game acts as a bridge between worlds of violent dark fantasy and stoner metal science fantasy.
Soul Burner embeds body horror both into the characters you play and the creatures you come across, using MORK BORG rules and depicting your characters as merely remnants of who they used to be. You will find creatures overgrown by fungi, desperate cannibals, and lava-worshipping cultists in this book, evoking a grim and gritty fantasy setting. Your own characters are ever-changing, morphing and distorting whenever you gain a Reminder - pieces of who you are that give you mechanical advantages in the game.
FLËSHMØG, by Freak Flag Games.
FLËSHMØG: THE FLESH BEGINS TO EXERT ITS WILL UPON ITSELF
mäw of hëck: flëshmøg is a pen & paper body horror character creator. draw your hand, discover your body, and mutate your form.
This isn’t so much a game as it is a character-creation exercise. Using a deck of playing cards, you assemble cards as you randomly draw them to give yourself body parts, strengths, and adaptations according to the world around you. This might be an interesting exercise if you want to come up with a wretched home-brew character for MORK BORG, or if you want to design some kind of horror to pit against your players in another game.
Do Not Fear: In Death We Bloom, by Hella Big Claws.
Do Not Fear is a Forged In the Dark Tabletop Roleplaying game, about accepting the fleetingness of life; and using the strength that gives you in order to combat a growing stagnation.
Fight as a Hunter, a person who has been given a Gift of Bloom; a fungus like infection that allows for incredible strength and regenerative ability; in exchange for subsuming your flesh as you die.
Combat or save the Rusted; living creatures infected by a growing viral stagnation; marbling their bones and rusting their flesh; sculpting them into horrifyingly beautiful creations. Ascend the Tower; a large, multilayered structure which you call home. Interact with the factions and people within, as you set down roots.
As a fungus-infested person, the characters for Do Not Fear feel like prime candidates for body horror. Your characters have accepted that their fate will likely end in death, but only because they must if they are to save the world from a horrible plague. The game is built off of the same system as Blades in the Dark, but I think there’s been some tweaks here and there, because there are teasers to creatures and weapons that indicate hit-points and stats. The character abilities however, look really powerful and exciting. If you are a fan of Bloodborne, Hunter X Hunter, or Technoir, you might like this game.
Mutagenic Hive Swarm, by Atelier Hwei.
Waking up as a transdimensional insectoid reptilian has never been more fun!You are a stone age psychonaut apparently occupying the body of a Transdimensional Insectoid Reptile, a bug.
But who you were is less important than where you are: you must navigate the bloody, alien meatscape of the MUTAGENIC HIVE SWARM and find a way back to the Here & Now… before memories of who or what you fade completely.
Mutagenic Hive Swarm is all about playing bugs who are not really bugs - your characters have found themselves in the bodies of alien creatures, and will need to fight in order to hold onto their sense of self. Much of your character’s skills and effort will be directed towards trying to resist certain influences and changes, so I think the theme of loss of agency really shines through in this game. What you might really like is the d20 table of mutations that can threaten you every time your body changes. If you want a game where your character is more likely going to succumb to their changes than find a way out, you might want to check out Mutagenic Hive Swarm.
Other Games to Check Out

Denizens of The Sunken: Type Wheel, KEMC Diamond, and Habitats
Some researchers have asked what all the graphic icons in our encyclopedia entries mean. The following document should explain them all.
PART 1: THE TYPE WHEEL
The creatures populating the Sunken Island can be classified under ten (eleven) different Types, and five (six) different Cores. This diagram illustrates the relationships between Types and Cores.
The inner wheel contains Cores, the intrinsic origins of a creature. The outer wheel contains Types, the modes of a creature’s existence. Cores have certain Types associated with them, though a creature may deviate from these common links entirely.
Cores:
MUTANT: Life as we know it, twisting and accelerating beyond explanation.
UNDEAD: That which is no longer alive, echoes clinging to this world.
EGREGORE: Collective concepts brought to life, human ideas.
CRAFTED: That which was deliberately built, taking on life of its own.
HAZARD: Life inimical to other life, parasites, forces of nature.
Types:
VERMIN: Beasts. That which scurries, scratches, consumes. The rage of a thousand cornered rats.
WEED: That for which growth and movement are one and the same. Plants. Fungi. Sessile animals.
SHELL: Corporeal undead. Cadavers. Dust. Fossils. Rot. Food.
SOUL: Incorporeal undead. Ghosts, grudges, hauntings. Aftershocks of history.
RUMOR: Beings born from whispers. Legends. Cryptids. Bogeymen. Fear. Uncertainty given flesh.
DOGMA: Beings born from rules. Philosophy. Religion. Information. Code. Conviction given flesh.
MECH: Automata. Mechanical monsters free to self-replicate, free from their origins in human factories.
CHEM: Homunculi. Chemical processes running rampant. Water, salts, fuel, coarse stone, refined crystals.
PHYSIC: Forces of nature. Extreme heat and cold. Storms. Blunt impact. Distant stars. Disasters passively harmful to life.
PLAGUE: Invaders. Parasites. Infections. Consumers from within. Pestilence actively harmful to life.
Blank:
A Type and a Core at the same time, Blank is defined by absence. Some would call this a 'normal' or 'neutral' attribute, but there is nothing normal about a creature devoid of an identity. What little unites these Denizens involves empty vacuums, blistering cold, and unfilled vessels. Blank creatures are rare, and they tend to behave oddly when exposed to other life forms.
-----
PART 2: THE KEMC DIAMOND
Damage varieties:
All Denizens have the ability to inflict harm on others. That includes you, reader. Please familiarize yourself with the risks inherent to field research before going outside to catalogue the wildlife.
KINETIC: Harm inflicted with physical means, such as claws, fists, fangs, or infection. By far the simplest form of danger to understand, but no less deadly.
ENERGY: Harm inflicted by emitting high levels of energy through comparatively small amounts of mass. This may take the form of fire, electricity, radiation, among others.
COGNITIVE: Harm inflicted by assaulting the mind and senses. Creating illusions, manipulating emotions, and altering memories all fall under this category.
METAPHYSICAL: Harm inflicted by locally rewriting the rules of reality. What was fiction a moment ago is now a fact of life, and yesterday's laws of physics are today's fairy tales.
-----
PART 3: HABITATS
The icons above represent the various environments a Denizen may call home. The Sunken Island is very humid and situated well within the tropics, so many habitats such as deserts and glaciers have never been present here. Other icons may be added to the Denizen Encyclopedia if those presented are insufficient.
-----
That should cover everything, for now. If you have any other questions, please direct them my way!
-Dr. Calypso Ceiba, Postdoctoral ecologist for the Denizen Project

I made a spidersona :) It's a Peter from Earth 51404! Unfortunately, this Spiderman was very lazy and careless. He mishandled an alien artifact which held a fungus that mutated with his DNA; this exploded from him and caused the downfall of humanity. He was resurrected by the the fungi some years later - he's not sure how long. So he's kind of undead and doesn't talk much. Every so often a creature is also resurrected, but as a giant mutant spider monster. He is working on the cure, but idk if it will help at this point...
#tw body horror#cw body horror#spiderverse#spidersona#spiderverse oc#endling#poor guy#following in the footsteps of my other ocs that don't take off their masks or have weird eyes kadhlASKd#his webs are like slime molds and are randomly a different color#sometimes he'll just forget what he's doing#he's friends with pal's but he really should get out more#meet new ppl#:)

Increasing complexity in evolution
Over the history of life there have been many occasions in which new complex systems developed from earlier, simpler ones, leading to explosion in diversity as the new system fills niches that it can exploit better than the old. Some examples are the formation of the first prokaryotic cells from looser collections of genes and membranes, the origin of eukaryotic cells from prokaryotic ancestors, the development of sexual reproduction, the origin of multicellular animals and plants, and the appearance of animal colonies or societies and of complex symbiotic relations.
There are two main types of such complexity transitions, which can be labelled "egalitarian" and "fraternal".
Egalitarian transitions involve the union and cooperation of entities with different origins and abilities. Examples are the combination of self-replicating genes into the coherent genomes of the earliest cells; bacteria and archaea coming together to form eukaryotic cells with mitochondria and sometimes chloroplasts; the origin of societies with non-kin members; mutualist symbiosis between different species, as in lichens; and possibly the union of partners in sexual reproduction.
The defining trait of an egalitarian transition is that the different units are genetically diverse, and therefore must all reproduce on their own: if they didn't all pass on their genes, they wouldn't stay part of the relationship. Even today, in our cells, mitochondria replicate independently of the nucleus. That also means the different units are in competition with each other.
Sure, in the long term cooperation may be best for all: the main driver of egalitarian transitions is cooperation between elements with different "skills", such as the photosynthesis of algae and the talent for nutrient mining of fungi in lichens. But evolution doesn't really do "long term". If an element can replicate itself more by mooching off the others, the mooching variant will become more numerous than the self-effacing variant.
Therefore, the way these transitions occur is by enforcing mutual dependence, for example by enclosure and by synchronized reproduction. When proto-genes were first enclosed by proto-membranes to form proto-cells, they were all in the same boat: any cheater mutant would quickly destroy itself by destroying its own sustainance. Parasites often become beneficial symbionts when they cannot easily jump to a new host, and viruses may become less deadly over time.
The interdependence can be enforced further by exchanging genes: mitochondria and chloroplasts turned over many essential genes to the nucleus of their host cell, and though they can reproduce on their own, they cannot survive for long. Also, mitochondria are only ever passed by the mother's eggs, not by the father's sperm, preventing the zygote from becoming a battleground (in algae, mitochondria always come from one parent, and chloroplasts from the other).
When all goes well, the result of an egalitarian transition is a cell or a society, or a small ecosystem built from cooperating interdependent parts that function as a whole.
In fraternal transitions, in contrast, the units all share the same origin and nature. Examples are the evolution of clonal colonies (e.g. of trees or coral polyps), eusocial colonies (think ants, bees, or naked mole rats), and the origin of animals, plants, and fungi with multicellular bodies. The main benefit here is not complementary skills, but economy of scale: when mole rats dig for tubers, they gain more by sharing the rare but abundant finds than by each digging on their own (and going hungry most of the time).
One major difference from the other type is that all the members of the greater unit are genetically identical, or nearly so: therefore, they do not all need to reproduce (from the POV of my genes, it makes no difference at all whether I or my identical twin have children: any gene I have, they will pass on just as well). Indeed, the disposability of most elements is a selling point of this kind of transition.
But you know who cannot say the same? Cheater mutants -- cancer, if you will. Any cancerous mutation, by virtue of being new, cannot count on being transmitted by other units, and benefits from replicating itself on expense of other genes. The uniform terrain will give it plenty of fertile soil.
An excellent way to put a stop to that is to limit reproduction to few units: think of the egg and sperm cells of animals, or ant queens. First of all, these segregated reproductive units can be kept in conditions that favor a low mutation rate, for example slow metabolism and protection from light. Most importantly, they put a bottleneck through which all mutations must pass: if a cancerous mutation occurs in (say) digestive tissue, that's regrettable, but it won't be passed down to the offspring; but if it happens in the germinal line, well, the new offspring will be entirely composed of cancerous cells, and the bad mutation once again destroys itself. Reproductive segregation resets genetic uniformity in each generation.
Genetic uniformity does not mean morphological or functional uniformity: thanks to contextual gene activation, the cells in your brain, bones, liver, and heart all have the exact same genes, but very different structures and functions. When all goes well, fraternal transitions may end with the constituent units specializing for different functions, taking on some of the advantage of the egalitarian transition, while still keeping genetic diversity as low as possible.
And that's how you go from bacteria to humanity, more or less.

First 💜 Previous
LAST WARNING FOR THE 🍋 UNDER THE CUT. MINORS DNI!
Donnie was skulking around like a cartoon villain. While you were busy finishing a show you were watching, you could sense him moving around. He wasn’t being invasive about it and you only really noticed him during lulls of action. He’d abandoned watching alongside you hours ago after the plot hadn’t interested him. For a while he toiled about on his computer until he inquired about bed. You had only two episodes to go in the season and replied that you were going to finish. He pecked you goodnight and you had figured that would be it.
He appeared to shut off the lights and tuck himself in. You had lowered the television volume for his sake and he’d been silent right up until he appeared in the corner of your vision checking in. You said nothing as you were relatively absorbed and it wasn’t unlike him to check a run time. He was always more prone to sleep when you joined him so you thought he might be waiting for you until he switched sides of the couch. From there he peeked again and it was obvious he wasn’t checking the screen.
He was looking at you in a not so pointed manner.
You tried to keep your lips in order through the duration of the final episode, but it was hard not to be amused by the way he crept all around the living room and kitchen. He never once interfered with your watch though you were losing rapid interest. The plot hadn’t come together as you’d hoped so you were mentally counting down the minutes until the credits rolled. You sank back amongst the final scroll of text with your mouth quirked to one side. You dully thought about the writer’s intention when Donnie finally coiled around the couch into full view.
“Couldn’t sleep?” You asked genially.
He had a hunch to his form and only looked between you and the TV.
“Too loud?” You wondered and moved aside so he could join you on the couch if he wanted.
He didn’t move further. “How was it?”
“Eh…” You tipped your head. “The other seasons were way better. The plot holes kept piling up and I don’t get why they wasted time on some of the side plots when there were still major plot points to deal with. Oh, and the recons-!”
Donnie lifted into better posture and seemed to gape.
He hadn’t meant to actually prompt you.
He clearly wanted something else.
He also completely failed at being coy so now you determined he was going to listen to your rant.
You went through all your gripes with more growing like fungi as you went on until he eventually was forced to join you.
You loved that he accepted his pseudo punishment. “So yeah… kind of a bummer.”
He nodded slowly and thoughtfully.
“You were right to skip out.” You sighed.
“Apologies.”
“Yeah…” You glanced at the time to find it teetering around 1am. “So, what were you up to?”
It took him a moment of processing before he remembered. “Ah.”
You waited and rested your head against the couch cushions.
“The lab.”
Your attention lifted.
“Would you like to go?”
By all indication, he meant now so you asked as much.
“Breaking and entering is considered through force and lack of authorization. We would enter through the front door and I have full access.”
“Isn’t it closed?”
“Yes.” He grinned.
“This is-”
“Surprising?” He had a smile to him that begged for validation.
“So spontaneous.” You cooed encouragement for him.
He ate it up with the slightest wiggle. “I must admit to some planning.”
“Oh?”
“I saw that Stockman requested time off. His protocols are coded so there’s no replacement. We only need thwart a computer.”
“Stockman…” You couldn’t remember who that was.
“It also regards our honeymoon.”
Now that you knew very well and switched topics since the other didn’t seem important. “What about it?”
“Do you recall our successful chase?”
A small thrill flickered in your chest. “I do.”
“I never elaborated on my deception.”
“Didn’t really matter when we fucked in the alley and then on that roof.” You teased.
Donnie’s gaze flickered away both to chase the memory and with some amount of guilt.
He had been on the mend, but he still hadn’t quite recovered from getting his hopes up that you might be pregnant.
He had come around on regular intimacy, but the sexual sort had continued to be, as of yet, off the table.
“Okay, let me think…” You shifted your posture.
You didn’t mind as he had all the time in the world to process.
“The alley…” You mouthed the phrase while running through the chase. “You were there, but I couldn’t see you. Is that it?”
“Yes.” He gave into a full smile.
You melted at it. “Let’s hear it.”
“I’d like to show you.”
“Oh, at the lab!” You connected the dots.
He gave a single sharp and excited nod.
“If you were waiting for Stockguy to take time off then we aren’t actually allowed in, are we? Permission or not.”
“The lab is closed…” Donnie led.
You watched with a knowing gaze.
“They could consider us violating protocol.”
You blinked once and it came with a small dose of fear. “Like with lab-aided fertility?”
Donnie grew similarly solemn. “Yes.”
“Are… we…?” You thought you had both agreed to not violate those measures.
“No.”
Your worries were immediately dashed, but you felt a little hollow as they disappeared too quickly. “Then why be sneaky?”
“What I’d like to do has no bar, but it is also both an act that most consider unsavory. Not something the employees or I would like stumbled upon.”
You couldn’t imagine anything else, but sex.
“You are for my eyes only.” He went on, cementing your thoughts.
“You did say it wasn’t in the biodome…” You remembered.
He wriggled the faintest amount. “Your answer?”
“It’s late…” You pretended to look forlorn toward the clock.
Donnie drooped so obviously that you had to fight every ounce of your will not to laugh at how adorable he was.
You turned your head to him and could only warp it into a cocksure grin. “But I suppose it sounds fun.”
Your husband gave a testy little trill at having fallen for your ploy and pounced at you.
You squeaked happily under his pecking kiss assault.
“I only need your tech gauntlet for a moment.” He eventually got out between nuzzles.
“What for?” You offered him your arm.
He slipped your bracelet off. “I will loop the necessary of Stockman’s footage once we’re inside the building, closed system, but on approach I require the image scrambled.”
“Won’t your keycard ping as you when you scan it?”
“Someone will call to inquire within 10 minutes.” Donnie pressed a few buttons and had your gauntlet syncing with his.
“Is that a problem?”
“No, I’ve picked up necessities in off hours before.”
“Then why all the effort?”
“Anonymity. My business.”
“I don’t understand…?”
“A moment.” He finished and reapplied your gauntlet to your arm.
You tilted your head as you waited.
“My gauntlet will take mapping footage to prepare stand-in imagery. Yours will initiate the feed interruption. I don’t want you ID'd. I don’t want you seen. If Stockman were available, he would see the temporary distortion. Since he is not, I will replace the footage, when I have access and before he is aware. The end result will appear as though only I entered.”
“Your eyes only.” You repeated what he had said.
He smiled warmly and caught your lips.
You kissed into him for one heavy press before releasing. “Should I change into anything in particular?”
He looked down at your pajamas and back up. “No need.”
You rounded out your mouth to show excitement without voicing it and you both prepared to leave. To match you, Donnie similarly left in his loungewear, but he stuck his coat over the top of his ensemble. You had never seen him throw the Burberry on over a tank top and you took a moment to look it over. He stood still to let you and you decided you weren’t sure about the pair as you shoved an arm through your puffer. It had only been a few weeks since you purchased it with S.H.E.L.L.D.O.N. and you liked it quite a bit. It still looked a bit hokey, but the downy warmth it provided wasn’t something you would trade in the lingering cold.
The moment you exited the apartment you started to sneak similarly to the image Donnie had set. You exaggerated taking steps with your whole leg and held your wrists up limp in front of you. At first your mate stared on, unenthused, until you turned a corner and checked back with him playfully. The game of spy clicked for him and he joined in by slinking up without nearly the same posture. He shifted the tone more to one for covert ops and together you crept around. With hand signals that meant nothing you decided to avoid the elevator and hit the stairs. Donnie took one look over a banister before he held out an arm for you. As if he were about to shoot off some grappling hook, he held you close and hopped down.
Your stomach shot into your throat and Donnie levied the fall by hopping off a few floors instead of all the way down even though he was capable. Your heart beat an excited speed when you landed on the ground floor and you tried not to lose your cool secret agent exterior as you signaled that you would check the door. Donnie hung back and you cracked the opening to the lobby. It was predictably empty and you waved him through.
He came and together you strolled out of the building as if you’d made out like bandits when in reality you had just exited your residence. You let the joy of your game hit you the moment the cold outdoor air nipped your nose. Donnie joined in your merriment with a churr and the car sat idling with a puff of warm inviting smoke coming from the muffler.
Inside the cabin was glorious heat and you unzipped our jacket. Donnie followed suit and instructed you on what to expect once you got to the lab. It was bathed in purple neon and rolling through somewhat empty streets that Donnie urged you to stay on his left side. That was the location of his primary tech gauntlet and would make for the optimal footage. He didn’t anticipate running into anyone, but you were to duck behind him if that were the case and he would cover you if necessary.
Reaching the lab, you felt exhilarated. Unlike your trips to the Hidden City where there was seemingly danger at every turn, there was little peril here other than a scolding. Spencer had been keeping you posted in his quest to get your pregnancy granted, but there had been little movement. The man had also assured you that things like this took time and it hadn’t phased Donnie so you guessed that was true.
You had a vague notion that if you were caught here then there was always a chance it could delay your favored decision. They might try to say you were violating terms even though, as far as you knew, that wasn’t true. You were sure Donnie would also somehow back up the actual footage that he was going to tamper with. If things went that South you bet he would offer at least part of it as evidence and with his usual lack of shame, he’d probably admit to whatever act you were in for.
Something clandestine was about to occur.
You still didn’t know what.
You had almost forgotten amongst the infiltration plans.
You were left wondering as Donnie tapped your shoulder to signal it was time. You nodded your readiness and he swept out of the vehicle first. He snapped the lapels of his coat clean and you zipped your jacket back up to follow him. You stood dutifully on his left and he appraised you with affection before approaching the building. The lights shined brightly on the exterior and Donnie moved to a far door as the others were gated. It was clearly an access door for this sort of afterhours entry and had a card scanner which Donnie swiped through. The door beeped and lurched with purple instead of green and you passed through.
The lobby was sparse in comparison to the sleek feel during the day. You thought a guard might be at the reception desk, but it was chillingly empty and partially dark. The only lights on were probably enough to illuminate security tapes and you tried not to fall behind as Donnie headed straight toward the elevators.
His phone rang as he was reaching out to scan one into operation.
He was smooth in removing the device with his right hand and answered in the motion of bringing it to his head. “You’ve reached Donatello.”
You heard a man’s voice on the line, but couldn’t make out what it was on the opposite side as you.
“Yes.” Donnie turned and looked pointedly at a wall.
You tried to peer at it without exposing yourself, but you didn’t see anything.
“I’m going to use the testing facility.”
Donnie’s unused hand flapped once.
You tucked your fingers into it and he squeezed.
“Yes. Shall I account for how long you pester me?”
You could hear anger turn up on the line.
“You delay genius.”
You still couldn’t hear, but there was a sharp retort that caused your mate ooze hatred.
Donnie looked forward to the elevator and from his profile you could tell he was using all his willpower not to spit venom.
You heard a taunting whoop from the phone.
“Your parent’s anniversary?” Donnie’s lip ticked with a wicked grin. “They recently moved, East Elmhurst. You’re attending a dual celebration which, congratulations are in order. A family owned grocer of 50 years. Shall I recite the address of the resort you’re staying? Your personal room number? Your parents? How about their social security numbers? I can overturn the entire booking in an instant. I can upend such jubilation. What a headache for the occasion.”
There was stark silence and you tucked closer to Donnie.
He appeared to shield you.
This time you heard the man on the line. “One wrong move. Never forget.”
“Review the footage as you please.” Donnie dismissed the man.
The call terminated and he put his phone in his pocket.
A swift exchange, he then swiped his key card through the slot.
The elevator was predictably on the ground floor and opened up.
He walked you in being careful to keep you on his left the entire time.
It placed him in front of the panel where he hit a floor and then swept a hand down to open the control panel. It took a few flicks of his finger and he kept his body otherwise stationary. The elevator door closed around the time Donnie revealed some circuitry. With one hand, he unearthed a port and plugged something into it. He then placed everything back as it was and went idle.
You waited beside him with growing concern.
He checked his gauntlet once and you saw a checkmark pass over the screen. “The entire company…”
You didn’t make a noise.
Your mate’s eyes flashed red. “All of them. Sent a notice without me attached!”
You searched his face.
He shook with his fangs bared. “All made aware of my failures! All to monitor me! They turn my company against me!!!”
He panted from the effort and tried to settle himself.
You ventured closer.
He pulled you right into a hug.
You squeezed him tight.
“The footage is doctored. You’re free to act.”
“Who was that? What did they say?”
“Stockman.” Donnie hissed. “He found it to kindly notify me of the Genius Built company wide alert. It notified all that one Donatello was barred from genetic testing equipment and materials for the time being, ect and so forth.”
“You threatened him.” You understood now and you began to remember what you were once told about this man. “Keep your enemies close…”
“I should ruin him. I should-!”
You shook your head against his plastron.
You felt him look down at you.
“I don’t know who he is, but he sounds like an asshole.”
You reached your floor and Donnie moved you just outside the elevator so it could shut.
“Maybe you should later. I’d need to know more, but this is for us, isn’t it? Fuck that guy.”
He didn’t disarm, but he relented a tiny bit.
“It sucks, but I guess it makes sense that they warned the employees.” You pulled your face from him, but didn’t look up. “I mean you couldn’t even get needles. Spencer told you that you couldn’t use the labs. He might have coordinated the email and cc’d some bigwig as proof. It’s probably all part of getting us the approval we want, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t really suck!”
Donnie popped a single irate click.
“Sure.” You finally met his eye. “Maybe it sounds like they’re talking shit about your manhood, but we both know you’re virile. It’s genetics stopping us! It’s always going to be your company. You’ll knock me up and then you can parade me around. We’ll go to that security room and I’ll tell that stock twerp off.”
Donnie watched you with an empty expression for a single second before all his weight came down on you.
You had to laugh as he rooted down to kiss your cheek and your knees buckled. “Too heavy!”
“I adore you.”
“Donnie!” Your legs were seconds away from giving out.
He gave a mating call before he relented.
It was just in time and you shook a little as he retreated.
He checked you over with more levity.
You were glad for it and caught your breath before wondering, “Testing facility?”
He gave you a confirming glance before he ushered you along. Not dissimilar to the lab floor, you were scanned in one room before walking out into a softly lit hallway. You imagined it was bright during the day, but it currently stood as a repeating pod to the far wall. Both walls were lined with either doors or glass and Donnie walked you straight down to the fifth one on the right.
It opened to a pitch black room and your husband disappeared into the void without hesitation. You clung to his coat as your eyes weren’t adjusted and he trended toward the side where he hit what sounded like a switch. The metallic click then blinked with fluorescents that woke up through a pane of glass. You pulled away from your mate and realized you were in an observation room. The lights had turned on in the attached room where someone was meant to be watched. When you looked through the pane of glass, all that stretched before you was a white cube. You guessed that made sense given that it was for testing and you reviewed what this room had to offer. There were a myriad of controls on a panel that you assumed changed variables along with some scant chairs for the observers.
With nothing more to look at you frowned.
You thought your surprise would have been waiting.
Studying the empty space for a moment longer, you turned to Donnie.
He had a smile waiting.
You recalled your honeymoon and wondered if you just couldn’t see the object. “Well…”
“I will be observing.”
You had a feeling and nodded your understanding. “Okay. Should I go to the other room?”
He had a pause to his features.
“What?” You reached for him.
“My trusting mate…” He mumbled awe in a small way as if he had to say his thoughts aloud.
You slipped close enough so you could do a hop and peck him on the cheek. “Who wouldn’t trust you?”
“Everyone.” He eyed you playfully. “You often included.”
Your pupils slid to the top of your vision as he wasn’t wrong. “Sure, but that depends on how sneaky you’re being. Whatever we’re doing now you’ve been planning-”
He had a complaint to him.
“-but totally pulled off in a spontaneous way.” You rushed to correct yourself.
He ate it up like praise.
“You’re not trying to trick me. It’s a surprise that you’ve worked hard on so, of course you have my full confidence.”
He popped a few deafening mating calls as he swept you up.
He spun you around a few times before he set you down to cuddle you.
“We’ll never test like this!” You giggled.
He kissed you deeply.
For a moment, you forgot all about whatever Donnie had planned.
Donnie seemed to do the same because he ushered you towards a control panel. Once your legs bumped it, you hiked up in preparation at the same time your mate lifted you. You were sat down amongst little knobs and made out. You must have flicked something in your jostling, but cared little as Donnie’s tongue invaded your mouth. It was an expert slide against yours to taste and you wound your own appendage to his. He churred sweetness into your jawline and pulled back to peck you.
You knew he would head toward your mating mark and tipped to unveil it. Your clothes still covered it and Donnie slid down your zipper in a tantalizing drop. It was unraveling to your ears and you had to yank his mouth back to yours in an interruption. He gave you a few more rolling presses before he trailed for his intended destination. It came with a thump hard to the ground which shook through your delirium as he nosed against your shoulder. There was then another clink beside your head and you blinked more lucidity as that was exactly where you were looking.
There was nothing there.
Donnie pushed your collar back with his beak at the same time as you lifted a curious hand up.
You touched metal where there was nothing and twitched away in surprise.
Your husband caught movement and checked once before the scene made sense to him. “You’ve noticed.”
“What…?” You groped the empty air and felt cool metal once again.
Now that it was under your fingertips, you could grasp it and, with an encircling of your hand, you identified one of Donnie’s mechanical arms.
Only they weren’t visible. “This is wild…”
“Our honeymoon.” He reminded you.
“Invisibility tech…?” You felt down to where the mech arm’s claws were and they held your hand when you reached them.
He pressed a grin into your cheek.
“What are we testing?” You turned an owlish look on your partner.
“I integrated some of B.E.D.F.A.S.T.’s tech…”
The claw retracted and you felt soft silicone press the obvious shape of a dildo into your palm. “Oh!”
He churred caramel.
“B.E.D.F.A.S.T. I can’t see…”
“My trusting mate.” He encouraged with a nosing.
“You making me feel good when you aren’t up for it.”
He nodded.
You squeezed the dildo to feel it wasn’t very long.
Following it to the base you could sort of feel part of it was still sheathed within the arm.
You could feel Donnie waiting with growing nerves.
You lingered for a second longer before turning.
“Are all four arms here?”
He nodded with a hint of shyness to him.
“They’ll wrap me up?” You tried to keep your rapid pulse out of your words.
It was still there as he bobbed again with growing confidence.
“Let’s do it.” You sent Donnie hooded heat.
He chirped one excited time before he evacuated your space.
You hopped off the control panel that he moved to man.
With his figure hunched, his coat dipped and spread as his battle shell presumably removed itself from his carapace.
“Oh, that’s going to follow me, huh?”
“Yes.” Donnie’s grin was insatiable and he flicked a few switches on the board.
“But I’m not going to know where?” You swiped a testing hand to the air and felt nothing.
“No.”
“Same safe word?”
“Gargoyle, if at all necessary. It will also respond to the S.O.S. signaling.”
“But that’s our two-way test. That we’re both okay.”
“Yes.” Donnie looked at you, nonplused.
You chewed your lip giddily.
Donnie made a big show of pushing a button and you heard an intercom echo of a door unlocking. “Audio feed from the other room. I have full control.”
You took one excited deep breath before heading toward the door. You didn’t hear the battle shell pursue you, but you felt it was. You could almost picture it crawling out like a bug through the cracks in the door that you left to close on its own. It trailed with winding arms and crept along as you went one door down in the hall. It opened immediately with a tug and you threw it wide so the arms had space to easily enter.
There were faint lines marking off cubes within the white walled space. It was a stark contrast to the dark toned observatory and you felt the sterility in the form of a testing environment. Since Genius Built dealt in all kinds of products, you figured there were all sorts of different testing facilities. You had a feeling this room was for live subjects and you approached the center of the room for the sake of it. A long mirror stretched out on the wall that connected the two rooms and you waved at your image.
Your visage disappeared and in a shift of light you saw Donnie manning the control panel.
“You can turn it off.” You spoke the obvious.
He nodded.
“Can I hear you?”
He made it obvious he was pressing a button before his voice was fed through another intercom. “My feed must be activated, yours is continuous.”
“And Stock asshole can’t see us?”
“From his feeds I rode the elevator up alone, took this same room, and am currently testing out a small spider-like device.”
“Is that real?”
“The footage is not, but the device is, yes.”
“Huh.” You shrugged.
“I will leave in approximately one hour.”
“Is that all the time we have?” You tried not to sound too sad.
“No.” Donnie’s voice came through sharply. “We have until just before Genius Built opens. Leeway should give us 20 minutes to evacuate before first on staff at 7am. Meaning we have about three hours.”
“Should I ask how the invisibility tech works?” You waved your arms again to see if you could catch the mech arms.
Donnie chuffed from the speaker. “The usual advancement. Not dissimilar to how I scrambled your existence on the way up. Take surrounding footage and feed it through specialized micro cameras lining an object’s exterior. Trick the cones in one’s eyes and the same with video sensors.”
“And this is what you did in Italy…?” You walked out with your arms outstretched.
“The prototype, yes.”
“All to chase me?”
“What other use would it have?” He almost sounded bored.
“I feel like being invisible is pretty advantageous to a villain.”
“And where’s an active one of those?” He spoke with irony.
You gave him a dull look.
He smiled in return.
“I’m also guessing this isn’t for Genius Built which is double why it’s under wraps.”
“Shall I say something about not wanting the technology to fall into the wrong hands?”
“When it’s in yours…?” You fluttered your lashes.
A claw flicked your cheek and you sputtered.
Donnie laughed only for a moment before he lifted his hand from the button so you couldn’t hear him.
You swatted at the air and found the mech arms were gone so you sent him a sour look.
He tried to keep himself under control, but mirth leaked when he hit the button again. “Ready to begin?”
“Yes!” You huffed.
He nodded once and you watched him release the comm.
You then stood for a dreary moment waiting for something to happen.
When nothing did, you checked in with Donnie and found him watching with rapt attention.
You should have guessed he would play this like a cat and mouse game.
You took one deep breath before you turned to observe the room more closely. It was as you expected with three white walls trimmed with squares and the one observation glass. The floor and ceiling matched the pale walls exactly and the squares were the same width as the door so from the interior it appeared to disappear. You approached it and ran a hand over to feel the seam. It was still there and you figured if you went to escape with any purpose then Donnie would let you out.
You turned and trailed with your hand along the wall for the sake of it. Another glance up and you noted that the lights were mounted flush in the ceiling. You bet the whole room was reinforced and soundproof. It spoke of evil big corporations and to a point you supposed that was true. Spencer spoke as much and with Donnie’s hand there was a moment’s notice in which anything at Genius Built could turn nefarious.
You supposed that was a little like the scenario you were in and you rounded the back wall.
You still couldn’t believe those purple poison tipped claws could be replaced with sex toys and there were now four of them on the prowl. Your husband wasn’t wearing his glasses so you instead bet he had some sort of mechanism in the glass to see exactly where the battle shell was. He also had full mental control over it which added to his participation even if he was hands off.
It was similar to B.E.D.F.A.S.T. in more ways than just inspired designs.
Did it have different sized toys?
Was it self-lubricating?
Were you about to experience double penetration?
You hadn’t worked up to that, but if there were different sized toys then there was a likely chance that now was as good a time to start as any. You stretched both mentally and physically at the thought. The delay meant more possibilities sprouted as your imagination ran wild. You were thinking about how a position would work against the ceiling when a claw tip tapped your nose. You looked out clear across the empty room and it arched slowly around your cheek to show you where it was heading. You held still until it cupped your jaw before you leaned into it, totally relaxed.
You saw Donnie perk with emotion behind the glass.
You reached up for one false swipe before you caught the arm in the next. Following along the track of the limb, it held steady as you traced the length for a better hold. You could hear the metal undulating from this distance if you listened close enough. It rolled beneath your touch before curling close to your body. You stroked downward to hold it as it slicked heavily against your torso.
You sent Donnie a loving look before you returned your attention to the thing you couldn’t see.
It traced a claw tip from the junction of your jaw around your neck. You shivered and hugged the arm you had close as it traveled a light line to your spine. It tested weight there, soft pricks with that razor sharp tip until it pulled at your collar. With the width of the arm, it would surely stretch out your top and you weren’t particularly in the mood to go home wrapped only in Donnie’s coat for once. You urged the arm back and it relented away from you so you could pull at your top.
It was a quick shimmy of both that and your bottoms until you were nude and you watched as what must have been a pinch of another claw caught the clothes and tossed them into a corner. You giggled and tried to catch the arms again, but they’d moved out of your way. You couldn’t imagine that they’d gone too far and chased them with open arms only to find nothing. You pouted, a little put out, and folded your arms at your hips to give Donnie a stern look.
Your mate watched on with a love-struck expression from the booth.
You rolled your eyes at him and did a slow rotation, now listening for that churn of metal. You identified it for a split second to your right, but resisted a flashing turn to catch it. Instead you held firm for a consistent noise. There were a few snaps of metal and even one soft plod that said the bulk of the battle shell settled, but it wasn’t until you heard a roll of movement points coiling to your left that you struck.
You caught the edge of the arm and it tried to evade you at the same time.
The fast revolution of metal rubbed against your hands like rope burn and you recoiled with a hiss.
“Are you alright?” Donnie’s voice appeared urgent.
“Yeah…” You reviewed your digits first before showing him. “No blood, just red.”
“I’ll calibrate.” He was leaned forward, almost pressed to the glass.
“Sure…” You shrank back into yourself and flicked your hands to help cool them off.
Worried metal slipped over your shoulders to hold you.
“I’m okay…” You told it with a turn of your head.
Prickled points tapped your fingertips to check.
“I feel it.” You pressed back. “No harm done.”
A second arm wrapped opposite around your waist.
You chuckled. “I’m okay. I’m okay.”
It held you and you looked at Donnie.
He had apology written on him and you gave him a scolding smile.
His eyes lowered as you did and you kissed at where you knew metal to be.
It held nervously still under your grip and you remembered the first time you had used B.E.D.F.A.S.T. All those years ago, your first chase had left you both scarred and it had been integral in you finding one another again. His emotions filtered through his tech as it was an extension of himself. Sending more reassurances through kisses, you turned amongst the coil of arms so they’d hold more of you.
They came with and it felt like a sort of dance as they revolved to get more of you. You were both a lead and a follow as you directed the movement, but they swirled to keep you spinning. Just shy of getting dizzy, they then dipped you and you felt secure enough to let go. You threw your hands out and what had to be the last two claws slipped between your fingers to hold you.
You giggled amongst the machinery and felt it pull you. You had a sense of where the pack they were sprouting from was and moved in the opposite way. Playfully the arms followed after, trying to get you on their tempo, but you moved without coordination. It meant the arms were a step behind in catching you and you were goading them on purpose.
You got only a few steps away before you were swept off your feet by a coil around your legs. It started from your ankles and, in a snake’s rotation, it wrapped all the way up your hips so you could be comfortably held up. You laughed brightly there as this was your goal and felt along the pipe of one of the arms until you found the tip.
“It’s all modeled after you, right?”
Donnie didn’t respond and you looked to see him focused on watching.
Your smile slipped into something more besotted. “You’ve never seen me like this from this angle, hm? Without anything in the way?”
He nodded slowly, entranced.
“The cocks...” You felt until you were between the claws and into their approximate of a palm where the attachments were housed. “… in here. These are modeled after you? You always do that.”
He gave the same distant agreement.
“Smaller, of course.” You returned your attention to the blank space. “Can’t have me getting stretched by anything, but your actual cock.”
You rubbed your finger into the metal and felt the split where it could open up.
It slowly cracked open and you immediately dipped a finger in to find the silicone.
You could also see a bit of a darkened circle as the cameras weren’t lining the inside of arms.
You didn’t need sight to recognize Donnie’s length, but you caught a glimpse of a familiar looking purple cockhead before it poked out and disappeared into the open air. You closed your eyes as there was no need for them and dipped forward with only a minor fear of poking your eye out. The claws gently rotated and bent backwards to save your face and you led with an open mouth.
It pressed the flattened tip of the dildo to your tongue and you rounded your lips to capture more of it. It took a single suck and some other mechanism for it to drop out what you imagined was the full length. It had a heavy weight and resisted bending in a way that made you think it was attached by a rod inside. That made sense to you for what it was and you bobbed your head to feel how much of it you could take.
It was a decent amount that paled in comparison to Donnie’s size and with one deep inhale you were able to get straight down to the metal at the base of the arm. You sucked in oxygen as you retracted so you wouldn’t have to pant and felt it move around you. Oddly lifelike without your vision, it curled across your cheek and you lapped at its warmth. The metal core or the machinery itself, you weren’t sure which, was adding to the real sensation as it had decent heat. It didn’t scald, but read alive to you and it even twitched when you tipped your head to lick at the glans.
You caught Donnie’s face during the exchange as his mouth was parted in denied desire.
You wondered if he would break from his show to join you and nuzzled into the cock only to feel another slide wet against your back. You felt one of your earlier questions answered and you arched reflexively as the lube was warm. It dripped with a honey-like consistency that was thinned by a sense of pre-cum. It read need, but since an arm was coiling all the way around your hips, there was no way for it to reach another of your holes. It seemed content instead to press into the dip of your lower back and the bump and grind of it soon fell in time with the cock in your mouth.
What did it look like from Donnie’s perspective?
Was your mouth openly agape and violated by nothing but air?
Did your cheeks hollow and spit drip out even though he could see your molars?
Did your body writhe as you floated with slick cropping up for nothing?
That and more you assumed.
You figured you only needed one thing to complete the gang bang imagery.
With one last squeeze to the arm you were holding, you released and put your limbs out.
In one needy flex of all your fingers, the battle shell got the message and you felt two more cocks slide into your hands. You moaned loudly at the one fucking your throat and grabbed both for a lethal squeeze. It was nothing more than prop work, but the heat and beading tips had reality skewing. You pumped the lengths in tandem and felt there was a faint give to their bounce. It read flesh and you chirped wanton out of habit for your mate.
He wasn’t here in anything more than remarkable shape and the only thing you were saddened by was there was no way any of the dildos could spread like him. That technology was a little too biological and very much only branded to Donatello. For that, you were thankful even if it did rob you of one of your favorite mechanisms.
The second of which you noticed as the cocks in your hands grew sticky with supposed pre. Donnie had failed to add knots to any of the devices and you might have laughed were you not working your neck furiously on the appendage in front of you. As you bobbed and the silicone rolled deliciously over your tongue, you doubted the bulge at his base wasn’t something he could recreate. The whole knotting concept was an age’s old fetish and surely available in the sex toy market. That meant Donnie omitted it for another reason, which you bet, again, had to do with not stretching you out by anything other than him.
You thought it silly as you swirled your tongue and you felt a certain type of readying pulse bounce that you usually akinned to cumming.
That seemed like a silly concept until on a backswing there was a sudden gush of fluid in your mouth.
You coughed it out on reflex and the cock disappeared to give you space.
You looked down to find what looked exactly like jizz leaking down your chest.
You could see it.
You swirled the excess fluid with a swish of saliva in your mouth and found it to be an unmistakable flavor.
“Donatello, my love?” You spoke slowly.
There was no response and you turned toward the glass.
Your mate had his hand down the front of his body and, even though the control panel blocked his lower body, you knew he was pleasuring himself.
“Donatello…!” You sang a teasing song. “Oh, where is my sweet mate?”
He was sheepish as he looked up and pressed the intercom button with only his free hand.
You spoke before he could. “Is this thing filled with your cum?”
“The shell houses a reservoir.”
“It’s…!” You weren’t mad, but your features pinched at how audacious this all was. “How much?”
“Fluid does it hold or-?”
“How much…?” You reminded yourself again you weren’t angry.
You truly weren’t.
There was still a part of you that felt deceived.
Not because he had actually tricked you, but because he had been getting off in some capacity without you.
There was nothing wrong with that.
You didn’t mind.
You knew it was the vestiges of the pregnancy debacle.
Cum had been a precious resource.
It needed to be in you in a particular way.
Your hips had to be an exact angle, hoisted up by a pillow, so you could take it.
You had to take it at a certain time.
It was a never ending list of aggravations and now a load had been wasted in your mouth.
You didn’t actually feel that way, but the rest of your sentence leaked out. “... of this did you dump into it instead of me…?”
Donnie made a startled sound.
You squeezed the cocks in your hand. “When did you…?”
“While you were watching your show.” He admitted and clearly released his member.
“Tonight!?” That wasn’t the timeline you expected.
He nodded.
You thought for a moment and sighed. “Floor please.”
You were set onto your feet.
You walked straight up to the glass. “I just…. want to make sure I understand… You both planned this and it was random, right?”
“Yes.” He had your full attention.
“Did you actually get bored of the show or did you ditch to do this?”
“Both and neither. I was aware of Stockman’s upcoming absence and its advantage for weeks. Intention plagued me. Would you be ready? Would I? Would not aid spontaneity? I had yet to make a decision. To this evening and the lackluster program. I had every intention of sleeping.”
You watched on attentively.
His gaze lowered. “I attempted, but I couldn’t stop thinking of this. Of you.”
“How did you…? Or where…?”
His head tipped to one side. “The B.E.D.F.A.S.T. inspired battle shell attachments were completed tech. Ready to deploy. What wasn’t was the reservoir. As I lie imagining you floating and pleasured, I saw through fantasy to completion. The satisfaction of you filled and coated. In an entranced fit, I devised how that might be possible. B.E.D.F.A.S.T. already had a reservoir that was as of yet unused and my tech has cross compatibility.”
The chilling cum on your chest felt heavy.
“Aroused, I silently took the tank the bathroom and re-ran my simulation with you as fodder.” He finally looked at you.
You wiped up a bit of spunk with your thumb and popped the globule into your mouth.
“Again and again…” His pupils expanded as he watched.
It was bitter, so you drank it down fast.
When you returned, you found your mate squirming slightly.
You hadn’t sucked him off in months so that made sense.
It all did.
His concerns.
His secrecy.
His creeping around.
He wanted you so badly even though he wasn’t ready.
His fantasies had sent him to masturbate.
He collected the spill both for the answer he had given and because he probably felt equally guilty about wasting it.
With his mixture of pre-planning and impulse, he concocted a scenario in which his desires played out both with his participation and not.
“Is the cum viable…?” You wondered.
“It has been kept at my bodily temperature, but I’ve never examined such.”
You softened with a wistful sigh. “You’re trying so hard.”
“An attempt was made.”
“If this sperm did work, would you be upset?”
He openly thought about it.
You waited and wiped a bit of drying jizz off yourself.
“No, I don’t think I would be.”
“It is you.” You agreed while examining the stickiness of your hand and your lack of forethought of where it could go.
“Wipe it wherever. The room will be disinfected.”
You chose the glass for a smear.
You could still see his pupil expand with interest.
“Thank you.”
“Of course.” He shook himself back to his senses. “Any other questions, comments, or concerns? I can alleviate further surprise.”
“Nah. I’m good.” You took a few leading steps back. “Fuck me full. I’m pretty sure you’ll be able to see inside me when this thing cums.”
His hand slammed into the console to cut off the audio and you were immediately yanked into the air. Far less delicate than before you were spun around so your sex was on display for him. You didn’t need to spread as the arms caught your ankles to do it for you. Claws crept up and sank into your ass cheeks without a penetrating pierce. It had you flexing and arching to a gasp where a wet member slid against your slit. You tried to grind on it, but a coiling limb wound sturdy circles around your waist. You were lifted higher until your head hung back and you could see the dizzying distance to the floor.
You were floating a dangerous height to fall and despite feeling the components holding you up, your stomach clenched with concern. It fell in line with the flip that took up space as a dildo tested your entrance. It pumped gently, getting a feel for what you could handle and you tried to flex to grab it. The arms held you tightly, giving you little breathing room until they adjusted you for better entry. It was a slight lowering of your upper body that put your sex further on view just in time for the cock to push in.
You felt the pulse of it, one you read as high excitement and the spread where you could be viewed internally. You almost thought some sort of flashlight might appear to give Donnie a better view, but instead the toy only sank in partially before it pulled out to predictably work you up. It was a gentle stroking at first, surely showing your mate exactly how you accommodated for him before it sped up along with your juices.
The claws tucked further into the thick of your ass until it was stinging around the pull of your asshole. You worried he might add another toy then, but your concern spun out as a new cock appeared to instead press up perpendicular to you to stimulate your clit. You cried out Donnie’s name as that flat glans shape cupped and rubbed at the same time. Your body shot confused signals about how your partner had too many cocks in a way that you found comedic until the member teasing your clit trended downward.
It pressed against the leak from the cock fucking you and warning bells went off as they seemed to be trying to occupy the same space. A warning chirp popped off your lips and you thought Donnie might respond, but your mouth was stuffed up with another dildo. It cut off your oxygen flow for a messy moment until you remembered your nose and inhaled drivel.
A few snorts got your breathing clear and you could still feel both cocks rocking against your sex in tandem. The second didn’t seem to be trying to enter, but instead, as your immediate worries fell off, was pushing out against your labia. You had to keep reminding yourself that all of this wasn’t visible so if something moved on your body all it would reveal was more flesh. It was x-ray vision without any sort of light spectrum manipulation and a revving had the length of an arm lift and press roiling to your g-spot.
You bit down on the toy on your mouth in sheer surprise and felt the silicone bend threateningly. You could sever it if you dug deeper with your incisors and you would find that metal rod in the interior. Instead you released, eyes and tongue rolling back to accommodate further as you were fucked gaping.
You were tightening on the toy and the ground was getting closer to your face.
You thought about it drearily, but the pulsing of your jaw was distracting. You couldn’t think under the heat and pummel outside of the fact that you were going to cum soon. A long swipe of the secondary glans took up the last of your stimulation and you didn’t even cry out as you came. You only felt yourself vice grip on what was inside you before the snap reflex of your muscle milked it. The cock came then, spraying your insides with an indiscriminate hose of your mate’s seed and you felt it fill you before dripping out. Plops of it were visible to you on the floor and you made a guttural noise at the sight.
All motion stopped outside the pulse of your body and you sat with the tip sending more and more of the blood to your head. You were lightheaded when the toy in your snatch finally withdrew and with it the rest of the slick was coaxed out. It dripped and dribbled in a way that you read as falling down the battle shell arms. You were lifted up and the toy acting as a gag removed itself from your mouth. Your jaw sat slack from use and you sort of remembered you had never sucked your partner off twice in a consecutive row.
You were lifted carefully until you were in a pseudo-seated position facing the glass.
You saw Donnie hunched forward and panting where he’d clearly cum.
“Got a tank in there too or another disinfecting?” You slurred.
He bounced with amusement once before he sent you a darkened look.
His intent went straight through to your sex and filtered out of your mouth. “How much cum is left in your battle shell?”
His grin grew and your thighs were licked and spread.
You knew then he’d want to see every angle of which you could be opened wide.
You were brought straight up to the glass until your feet almost pressed against it and the toy slid up through the dripping cum ready to enter you once again.
“Bring it!” You cheered once before your available orifices were stuffed full.

Can retrohumans hybridize with metahumans?
Mortasheen technology can hybridize just about anything! Metahuman traits are so genetically dominant, however, that if a retrohuman and a mutant or a retro and sectilian started a family together the old fashioned way, their kids would have no more obvious "human" in them than any other little baby mutants. Also the retro would have to be treated for all the poisons and skin-eating fungi and things that might be a normal healthy part of meta biology.
