I know you’re busy so feel free to delete this request but I was wondering if I could get an HC of how the dogs would confess their undying love for you? Lol I specially orange, white, and blonde cuz I have a soft spot for them! ♥️🥰

Hey anon! I hope it's okay for me to write just for Orange, White, and Blonde in these headcanons due to my schedule. Is that okay? I'm really sorry if it isn't, and please let me know and I'll fix it if that's the case. But yessss, I love this idea! Man, all of you come up with such excellent fics I'd never think up on my own! I also included some songs that I thought fit these confessions perfectly, I hope that’s okay. Let's get right into it then! I only have two more reqs in my inbox left, so hopefully I can get those done soon too!

Fandom: Reservoir Dogs

Genre: Requested Headcanons and romantic relationship

Synopsis: You are at the forefront of Blonde, White, and Orange's confessions of love, which you didn't expect whatsoever!

Trigger Warnings: Age gap in Mr. White's headcanons and swearing, but nothing else!

MR. BLONDE/VIC VEGA ( The Longest Time by Billy Joel )

This is certainly going to be interesting, I'll tell you that! Most of the Dogs didn't expect Blonde to be the type to fall so head over heels for someone, what with his psychotic personality and tendency towards violence--nonetheless you, the sweetest little thing they'd ever met.

Even he was unsure of your reaction, lost in his own newfound feelings of love and admiration for you. Nothing like this had ever happened to him, crushes yes but never infatuation to this degree. To be honest, it terrifies him. You make him second guess himself, empower and frighten him with how you hold him in the palm of your hand.

He was very good at not letting it show, however. Blonde's just his usual charismatic self around you. His flirtations are subtle, enough so that you don't necessarily pick up on them straight away. He isn't obvious, that's for sure.

Eventually though, it got to the point where he couldn't keep it inside anymore. He longed to touch you, hold you in his arms, kiss you, and make you his. The desire was so overwhelming it knocked him onto his ass, literally. Vic decided shortly later that he had to tell you, even despite the risk of rejection.

The confession came when he pulled you aside for a moment on an outing with the Dogs at Pat and Lorraine's Café. You'd just finished a massive plate of steaming pancakes and you were feeling fantastic. He'd asked you to tag along outside with him for a smoke. Even if you don't, you still go along.

In the front of the café, he lights up, then gathers himself. You can tell something is off, but what you don't know. You let him ramble for a few moments, before finally asking him what was going on. And there it came, a confession of undying love for you.

" What's wrong is that I'm in fuckin' love with ya, Y/N. Absolutely heads over heels, on my ass and breathlessly in love. The problem is that you're so damn out of my league, baby. I could never have a chance with a gorgeous gal/smoking guy/hot thing like you--!"

You cut him off by tearing the cigarette out of his lips and slamming yours onto his in a passionate kiss. His baby blue eyes go wide, but he takes it all into stride and returns it. And he holds you, heart racing and knowing that nothing could tear you two apart.

MR. WHITE/LARRY DIMMICK ( I Only Want to Be With You by Dusty Springfield )

Unlike Blondie, White recognizes how he's feeling way before you or the other Dogs do. He's had enough experience in the field of romance to know when he's falling in love, so he isn't afraid or worried. Rather, he's taken aback with himself. You are considerably younger than he is both physically and mentally, and you two come from completely different backgrounds. So he's nervous over how you'd take all that in along with his confession.

He confides in the ResDogs after his realization, and they're understandably surprised too. Pink and Blonde try to discourage him by pointing out the contrasts between you two. Orange, Blue, Eddie, and Brown are supportive though, and Joe is apathetic. He takes all of their advice with a grain of salt, especially the disbelievers. At the end of the day, he knows he has to come to it on his own within himself.

It takes awhile though, I won't lie to you. Larry's feelings only grow stronger every day that passes. Whenever he closes his eyes he sees you. His brain is constantly filled by mental snapshots of you. He hears your voice in the back of his head, like a favourite song. You are his whole world now, all he wants to do is be with you, be yours, and have you as his in every way.

He's not flirty like Blonde though, at least not in the typical way you'd think. It's more of a chemistry thing, a projection of good vibes from him. To you, it's totally alluring and irresistible, and you want nothing more to be around him. You two zero in on each other, the whole world drowned out as you talk.

It's in one of these moments that he confesses, suddenly and stupidly he feels. White was just so engaged in the conversation and the love he was feeling for you that it all came out. The Dogs stop everything they were doing, staring on at you two in that moment. You're so lost in what's happening that you don't even notice. But what you do know is that your feelings are being expressed through him right then and there.

" You mean everything to me, Y/N, and I love you so much. I only want to be with you, kiddo. I can't even express what you do to me, you've just changed me forever..."

It seems like hours that pass when the silence hits you both, but in actuality it was only minutes. You feel your world caving in beneath you in a good way, being sent into a spiral of realization and returned love. You only leaned into his chest, letting him hold you to his heart in response. From that point forward, you two were together.

MR. ORANGE/FREDDY NEWANDYKE ( Can't Take My Eyes Off of You by Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons )

Okay, Freddy is going to be the wild card in these headcanons. Unlike Blonde and White, you'll know straight away that this sweet boy has fallen for you. He doesn't really know how to hide his feelings towards you, only how to reign them into a point that wouldn't make you overtly uncomfortable or push you away. He loves you but he isn't going to pressure you into anything you don't want to do, that isn't his intention whatsoever.

He fell for you the minute he met you, there’s no glossing over that fact. You were just so charming, bright, good looking, and positive, it would have been contrary if a schoolboy crush hadn’t been sparked within him because of you. He’s had MANY crushes before, but there was something about you that was different than those previous times. Just that little edge, that little sparkle that separated you in your own class. Over time, that crush morphed into full blown love, despite how short that development was. He found himself constantly thinking of you, wanting to be with you and a better person when he was around you.

The Dogs could tell right away too, they knew that there was going to be attraction the minute Orange and you became friends. Sometimes they tease him over it when you’re absent, poking fun at him for being a lovesick puppy, laughing that he’s being such a suck towards you. And goddamn is that true, Freddy is so clingy and attentive to you. You both are joined at the hip, having a great time wherever you go. Personally, you were flattered by his kindness and cute devotion to you. You too felt love blossoming inside you for Freddy, though it was more gradual in your case.

For awhile, you two remain good friends and nothing more. Soon enough, Freddy and you are two peas in a pod, closer than you even realized. You knew each other’s favourite things, fears, insecurities, weird habits, what made you laugh or cry or annoyed, and above all, you both knew deep down that you loved each other. It was the circumstances and your own personal convictions and reservations that prevented you from getting together immediately. This cycle goes on for a long time, months and months until Orange can’t take it anymore. He can’t imagine life without you, and the lines in your relationship were dangerously beginning to blur from platonic to romantic for the two of you. It was all moving so fast, the feelings big like an untameable beast rearing it’s head in your guts.

The day that he confessed to you, Freddy wasn’t in a good place. He’d had a trying, hard, and drawn out day, and he didn’t know how to handle it. He broke down on your doorstep, falling into your arms and bursting into quiet sobs. It was heartbreaking to see him so frayed, so you brought him in not knowing what else to do. After you got him settled on the couch and drinking hot cocoa, you wrapped your arms around him in a tight hug. You weren’t fully sure, but you figured that everything was just too hard for him to take anymore—especially his deeply rooted love for you. You asked him if that was the case to which he gave up and admitted it.

“ I’m so done with pretending I don’t love you, Y/N. I don’t want to be friends anymore, I don’t want to be buddies, I don’t even want to be friends with benefits. I just want you to feel what I feel. And what I feel is commitment, respect, and pure love for you. I want you to love me. Please… don’t turn away from me anymore…”

And you don’t. Slowly, you two let yourselves shuffle closer, finding each other’s lips and rubbing noses together. Then in a sudden moment, you were kissing. A lot of things made sense in that moment, things you hadn’t figured out the answer to or even known you needed clarity for. It all came to you in a flash, like it was right under your nose. Freddy loved you and you loved him. That was all you truly understood for certain, and you weren’t going to let yourself forget it.

I hope that these were all okay, and again, please let me know if they weren’t what you had in mind and I will gladly fix them up to be satisfactory! Thank you again anon for your req, it was so much fun to do! And thanks to everyone for all your patience with this little blog, I wouldn’t be where I am today without you all, sappy as that may sound. So thank you so much! Love and safe hugs to all of you, and I’m keeping you in my thoughts! Stay tuned for more updates, slow as they may fucking be. Ciao!

Hi!! I really love your hcs and all your content💖💖 i was wondering if you could write an hc or sum about mr blonde finding out his girl is pregnant, like how it would be the whole pregnancy🥺 idk even he's a bit psychopath i think it could be really cute tho lol

YEEEAAAAHHHHH

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

WARNINGS: ummmm pregnancy? assumed not safe sex lmao and cussing <3

PAIRINGS: Mr. Blonde X Fem!Reader

WORD COUNT: 758

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Alright I feel like Mr. Blonde would be like actually really composed and honestly a really good dad

He would take the news fairly well but then he would go to Eddie and panic a little-

“Love, can you come in here?” Vic had just gotten home and heard your voice from your shared bathroom. “What’s up babycakes?” Vic walked in and saw you standing in front of the mirror. Eye makeup smudged, tear-stained cheeks, clad in just one of his shirts and your panties.

“Oh honey, what’s the matter? Are you okay? Who do I need to kill?” he swooped his and gave you one of his famous bear hugs. ‘Apparently, he hasn’t noticed the tests’ you thought to yourself.

“Oh no no everything’s fine, hopefully. I just- I have something to tell you.” He stood back looking into your eyes, hands stroking your arms. “I’m Pregnant.” Your eyes traveled to the sink, and his followed. There laid 3 pregnancy tests, all positive. He knew you had been sick but you both just assumed it was a virus.

“Baby…”

“Yes I’m having one”

you smiled meekly at your weak joke. His eyes met yours and you’ve never seen him look more delighted. Vic broke out into a wide, award-winning smile and he kissed you with the most love you could ever feel. “So you’re happy?”

“Of course I am! We should probably make a doctor’s appointment soon, but until then I need to go tell Eddie, Will you be okay by yourself for just a little bit?”

“Of course!” You kissed his cheek gingerly, “Tell Eddie he’s gonna be a great Uncle!”

Vic drove to Eddies as fast as he could. The doors to the Cabots home slam open, “Y/N’s pregnant.” Vic paces the foyer as Eddie looks at him from the staircase he was descending,

“What the fuck?” Eddie stops Vic by the shoulders and looks him in the eyes. “What the fuck? You knocked Y/N up??” Eddie looked bewildered and Vic just had it hit him.

“Oh my god Y/Ns having a baby, I’M having a baby???”

Eddie laughed. “Don’t laugh! What the fuck am I gonna do I’m a criminal?? What if I go back to prison-” “Vic shut the hell up. I don’t think I’ve heard you panic before but trust me it’s gonna be fine. Me and Daddy will make sure you won’t go back to the slammer and you have a wonderful woman who is perfect to be a mother and trust me you will make a perfect father.” as Eddie spoke Vic calmed down and realized that most everything was gonna be fine.

Though Victor deep down knew everything was fine, that didn’t stop anxiety from planting its seeds into his mind.

He’s very cautious like SUPER cautious

“Does this mean we can’t fuck anymore? Ow- Baby why did you hit me?”

You try your best not to be annoyed because you really do know that these questions are coming from a place of love, care, and small fear, but sometimes you can’t help but want to rip your hair out.

He can’t cook (Okay he can but it’s only like 5 meals so I don’t count that as being able to cook lmao) But he tries his best because he wants to take care of you

He wouldn’t care whether you got married before the baby or if you just did it in your own time. (He secretly hopes it’s soon because he knows he loves you and he really just wants to say “Hey, That’s my wife!”)

Ngl I feel like this kinky shit would love seeing you pregnant, and if you are extra horny due to being pregnant then he is always willing to help <3

If you go on missions with him and the dogs then he will make you stop as soon as you both find out like no way are you gonna be put in danger like that while carrying y’alls precious child

I feel like He’s equally as bad at doing chores as he is at cooking but he still tries his best so you don’t have to do things like laundry and cleaning and stuff

CUDDLES GALORE

I swear to GOD this mans gets 10 times better at cuddling when you get pregnant

He really doesn’t care if its a boy or girl but I feel like if they were a girl he would pray to any and all gods that they would be as beautiful as you <3

Reservoir Dogs x Reader: Poly! (sort of) Headcanons

You met the dogs through Joe. But Joe was the first. He met you at Pat and Lorraine's cafe. He liked you instantly and every time he came for breakfast or lunch, you would be like his personal waitress.

He gave you really good tips.

During one of his visits, you meet his son, Eddie. Eddie is very much like his dad, but more cheeky in some ways.

He flirts with you a little, making you go pink and act like a stuttering mess. “Knock it off, kid. She's working.” “Sorry, pops.” You weren't used to flattery.

The next time, Joe and Eddie came to visit, they're not alone.

You come to the cafe, almost rushing, thinking you were going to be late. But you made it in time.

You were called by the head waitress to serve Joe and his table.

You peeked out at the table to see several men, each one as good looking as the last.

Somehow getting up the courage to go over, you greeted Joe and Eddie with a smile.

Joe introduced you to the boys. Not by name, well not exactly but using colours: Orange, White, Pink, Blonde, Blue and Brown.

You find the boys to be quite pleasant.

The boys ask you to join them. But you refuse as you have other customers to serve. But you get told otherwise by your manager and you give in to their puppy eyes.

You find yourself sitting next to Joe and Mr. White and he buys you to a meal and a cop of coffee to go with it.

“So, what's with all the colour names?” “They all don't know each other that well, sweetheart.” “And just so you know, I had no interest in being called Mr. Pink. That was all his idea.” You shrugged. “S'alright. I wouldn't mind making you blush pink in the gents toilets.”

This struck a round of applause and laughter from the rest of the Dogs, except Pink who was left blushing and speechless.

The boys almost get a heart attack when Pink tips you, almost double when he goes up to give you it.

“By golly, girl. You work a fucking miracle.”

This tells them that Pink's taken a fancy to you.

But that's not the last time you see them – except Blue, he's happily married.

You meet up with Eddie first and takes you to Vegas which is a little much for a first date, in your opinion.

About half way through the date, you meet up with Blonde who introduces himself as Vic Vega.

The three of you get along like a house on fire – you enjoy their company. By the end of the night, you end up in bed with both of them until the next morning for when you all head back home.

Orange is the next of the Dogs to go on a date with you.

He takes you to a diner and then to his home to watch films – one of them being Lost Boys.

Halfway through, you both end up talking about anything and everything, and there he reveals to you that he's in a relationship with White. You don't mind a bit, thinking it's really sweet and you feel quite flattered by the fact that Orange trusted you with this secret.

You honestly thought White would have been upset by Orange telling you something so personal. But he wasn't, he was a little taken a back at first but happy once you told him that you had no ill will to them both for being in a relationship.

White was an absolute gentlemen and very respectful of you. He never forced you to do anything you didn't want to do.

Though you did request to have a night with both him and Orange. “One day, sweetheart.”

Mr. Brown was a total geek – no, wait....IS – despite his small criminal background. He took you back to his apartment to have a movie marathon with him, which led to him having to pause the film half a dozen times to discuss several theories he had about them. It went on well into the night.

And then there was Pink.

Pink was the most awkward out of the bunch. He seemed to be the sort of guy that put on the tough guy act around his friends/colleagues but when he was around you, he was soppy.

Near the end of the date, you both have the tipping discussion. He's very opinionated on the subject, which you can't help but agrees with him a little bit but once you explain to him a little more about it, you're sure you've convinced him...maybe only a little.

Surprisingly, he does tip but you suspect it'll be the last time.

When dusk fell, he takes you on a small walk back to his apartment for a little drink. He keeps you by his side at all times. His beady eyes watching everyone in case anybody decides to pull a fast one.

The night ends with you two making out on the couch and then later on falling asleep in his arms.

During the days when the boys having breakfast with each other and you're not around, they can't help but talk about you and how amazing you are.

Joe and Blue keep quiet about the whole thing but giving each other knowing glances.

They know what it's like and leave them to it.

Promise? III

Author: Dina.

Word Count: 3875

Pairings: Bucky Barnes x female reader

Warnings: angst with a happy ending, war, kz-camps

masterpost

Late September 1943

“Sergeant, something is happening!” Blue lights lit up the dark sky above them and a searing sound tore through their ears. “What the hell was that?!” He heard from beside him, all his men keeping their heads low, fear evident in their eyes.

He leaned over to the fastest runner in his infantry. “Michaels, I need you to get this to my wife, please,” he held out a letter and his silver tags. “Please. She’s pregnant. I don’t know what’s going to happen to me. Please make sure she gets it.” he was begging the frightened male intensely, watching the realization overcoming his younger soldier. The young man nodded and grasped the objects, fear still clouding his eyes.

“We’re surrendering, Michaels. While we surrender, you need to hide, run, anything to get you away from here. You need to get that letter to New York. I’m begging you.“ Michaels had never seen his sergeant so fearful. It was a whole different man in front of him, but Michaels nodded his head and moved stealthily through the long trench, away from the evident gunfire and blue streaks lighting up the sky.

Michaels hung the dog tags around his neck, tucking the letter into his front pocket before poking his head up, looking around for any sign of the enemy. When he saw no sign of them, he bolted for the woods, just as hands from the men of the infantry rose from the trenches.

He ran until his legs gave out under him. He had no take on how far he had ran, but when his back hit the bark of a tree, he exhaled for the first time in a long while. He closed his eyes and relaxed against the cold ground, hot autumn air making his clothes cling to his sweating body. He laid his head back for just a little while.

He startled awake when gunshots drew closer. How long had he been out? His body jumped with every shot, fear creeping back up into his eyes. He had to move. He had to run. He had to make it back to New York. He had to get the letter home. Just as he rose from the tree, a bullet flew by, right by his ear. He gasped and shut his eyes tightly, praying to god he would make it out of there.

He ran. He zig zagged between the trees, doing his best to dodge the bullets. He listened as the bullets hit the trees around him, saw the splinters flying while tears streamed down his face. He stopped dead in his tracks, looking down at his abdomen, watching the red patch grow bigger. He cried silently as he fell to his knees, clutching his stomach tightly before laying back against a tree, lightheadedly closing his eyes. He prayed the Lord’s Prayer one last time before it blacked completely.

October 3rd, 1943

“There’s a few more over here!” the Lieutenant yelled out, motioning a corporal with a piece of paper to join him. The lieutenant squatted down, grabbing the dog tags from around the man’s neck. “Madsen, Phillip. Massachusetts.” he sighed. “107th. Deceased.” he motioned for another corporal to search the body. He found nothing on him.

The lieutenant looked around as the corporals checked the tags and searched the bodies. He looked down, seeing the scattering of confused footsteps littered on the ground. He tried to make out the patterns of them. Where the soldiers were running to. One led into the woods.

“Corporal Sanders, follow me, please,” he said as he motioned for the woods. The man nodded and grabbed a paper, following his commander into the dead forest. They followed the footprints in the soft ground, zig zagging their way in between the trees. “Someone tried to escape,” he said as he admired the bullet holes in the trees.

“There’s one over here!” his corporal yelled and the lieutenant hurriedly made his way to where the corporal was crouched down, looking at the dog tags. “Barnes, James Buchanan. New York.” he looked up at the lieutenant. “107th. Deceased.”

“Search him.” the lieutenant motioned with his hand, before taking off his hat to wipe his forehead. He watched as the corporal checked his pants, finding nothing but a rock with a hole through it. The corporals’ search continued to his front pockets, eyes widening as he pulled out a letter, stained with dried blood.

“We got a live one!” someone shouted in the distance. A live one, after a week? Impressive. The corporal carefully pushed the letter into his pocket, and the two men helped each other bring the body back to the others. “Roone, Dean. Maine.” the corporal read on the silver plates. “107th. Alive!” he sighed happily and watched as the man’s eyes moved beneath his eyelids. “You’re alright soldier. You’re going home.”

March 1944

The light was blinding when he stepped out of the bunk chambers at the weapon factory. The early spring sun was glowing brightly in the sky, and all he wished for was for the sun to burn him right where he stood. The endless fabrication of weapons was making him lose his shit. All he wanted was to go home.

He had no idea where he was. He knew they had been in Italy when they had surrendered. The months passed since then laid as a thick fog over his mind. They moved the captured remains of the infantry around for what felt like weeks. Maybe it was a couple of weeks. Maybe it was just a few days.

The black hood over their heads didn’t give much away. The sedatives they had been given while they traveled hadn’t been on the weak side. He felt groggy for a long time after arriving at the factory.

Their routine was something to gag over. Sleeping in tightly cramped bunks, eating watery soup. If they were lucky, there would be a few cubes of potato in the tasteless food. They would work for hours on end. Marching tiredly back to the bunks to get what awful sleep they were allowed to. Then repeat. And repeat. And repeat.

At least the summer was approaching slowly. He felt the nights grow warmer, and the sun setting later and later. He kept thinking of home. His wife. His child. Was the child born by now? How long had it been? Was it a boy? Or a girl?

A little baby Barnes. He closed his eyes and he could almost hear the soft thudding of a toddler padding across the floorboards. He was sure you were taking care of his child no matter what. He could faintly remember your last letter.

July 28th 1943

Sweetheart, I’m longing for you to come home to Brooklyn, but I’m a little bit afraid to see you again now. I’m getting awfully big on top but I still don’t stick out very much down below. I just look heavier all around now, but by the time you get here I guess it will be much worse.

That’s right my love, you’re going to be a father.

I’m not at all worried though - I just feel happy and proud to be carrying the baby of the person I love most in the world. I really feel as if I have a part of you with me all the time.

I love you so much, and miss you likewise.

Your (y/n).

He felt the tears roll silently down his cheeks as he stood there, motionless. He felt a sharp pain in his shoulder and a push forward. “Auf!” he heard one of the commanders order. He trodded into the factory, getting ready for another day of manufacturing weapons for the enemy. One of his fellow soldiers joined him shortly after, vividly aware of the guards.

“We need to tell you that escape plan Barnes. You need to get home to your family.” he looked over his shoulder, still keeping an eye on the guards. “You know I don’t have any family left.” Bucky looked up at the man beside him, tears protruding in the corners of his eyes.

“Please don’t give me hope, Mason. I can’t take another let down. I just miss her so much. And my child…” he choked back a sob as the guard approached them. He eyed them carefully as they worked beside each other, now saying another word before he had left.

“This will work out. I promise you. I’ve laid out a plan with some of the others. We’ll get you out of here. No matter how much they want it as well.. You’re our sergeant. If anyone can get us out, it’s you.” Mason left him shortly after, nodding to some of the other soldiers. Prisoners. Working for the enemy.

As nightfall rolled around, they were all commanded back to their bunks. Bucky knew Mason and Ronson would inform him of the details of the escape when the guards had left for their nightly drinks. They approached his bunk shortly after the guards had left, and they agreed that tonight was the night. Hours passed, and they gathered up enough men in the different buck columns and, to their luck, they weren’t too far away from the barbed wire fence.

Ronson snuck up to the commander room where the guards had gathered, retrieving a bottle of liquor from the open window quietly. He was one of the few prisoners who were allowed to smoke, and furthermore was allowed to carry matches around. Gullible guards. Ronson had ripped a piece of cloth from one of Bucky’s pant legs, and was now on his way to throw a burning cocktail at the washroom, where the women did the clothing.

Everything was set and ready. Mason and Bucky had pulled up the wire and covered the barbs, so he didn’t get cut. There was a 40 yard run to the next fence, and Bucky would have to manage that on his own, therefore, the distraction.

Mason kept an eye on the washroom, and slowly but surely, orange flames licked their way up the inside of the walls. He grabbed Bucky by the neck and laid his forehead against Bucky’s. “Good luck, my friend. I wish you all the best.” He said as Bucky grabbed his arms, squeezing slightly, before crawling under the fence. Mason made sure to rearrange the fence so it wasn’t apparent where he had escaped.

Bucky ran the 40 yards quicker than ever, despite being stripped of any protein for god knows how long. Freedom was within his grasp. He glanced back and watched as Mason ran back to the bunks, light on his feet. Bucky turned, and took in the fence. Simple, yet sturdy. He heard the soft clicks, and it surprised him. It was electric. Fuck.

All of a sudden it glimmered before him, and then it shut off. He looked back at the camp and realized the maintenance shed had caught fire. Every light in the camp was out. He thanked his lord as he signed the cross over his chest. He quickly warped the soft wire and slid out through a hole big enough for his skinny body, trying his best not to make any noise or pull too hard.

And then he ran. He ran for what seemed like an eternity. Night turned to day, and day turned to night. He ran over the hard, rocky roads and soft grass fields. He ran with tears streaming down his hollow cheeks, he ran towards you. He ran home.

That’s what he imagined, the least. He stumbled upon a fairly large city after god knows how long. It was a devastating sight. He walked into a bombed apartment complex and searched one of the ruins, just for something other than his prisoners clothing. He found something that must have belonged to a teenager, and yet, it still hung from his boney body. He found a pair of shoes as well. Shoes. It had been so long since he had worn a pair of shoes.

He scavenged the kitchen, finding the most delicious can of beans he had ever laid his eyes upon. God treated him that day. Now all he needed was to find the army. The American army. That was probably the most difficult task of all. That, and getting home. He didn’t know how long he hid in the ruins of the old apartment complex. But one day, he heard what sounded like music to his ears. Voices. Speaking English.

May 1944

It was your anniversary today. Two years ago, you had said yes when Bucky had asked you to be his. Never in your wildest dreams had you imagined that this is how you would end up. You felt your heart flutter softly in your chest as you recalled the day in your mind. You smiled as you walked from the small kitchenette in yours and Bucky’s apartment, to where your three month old was sleeping soundly in his crib. You watched him adoringly, slowly sipping the water.

A knock fell on your door, and you straightened your dress before walking over, opening your front door. You were shocked to find a man of his status outside your door, but you let him in when he motioned with his arm.

“Mr. Marshall?” you asked when you had regained your composure. You were shocked as he stood there in your living room, for a moment not believing it was actually him.

“Mrs. Barnes. I’m sorry to come barging. I bear some news that had shocked all of the United States Army. I wanted to personally deliver the message to you, before we make it official. You might want to sit,” he motioned to your couch and you nodded, not fully understanding why he was in your apartment. “I see you have a child. My congratulations.” he offered, and you gave him a warm smile in return.

“Thank you, Mr. Marshall. It’s my late husband and I’s. He looks just like his father.” you glanced toward your bed with a smile, to where the crib was standing. You sighed, longingly. “So, you have some news for me?” you asked, just wanting to know what was so important, that the Chief of Staff was doing in your home. He sat down next to you and took your hand, startling you.

“There’s no easy way to say this, Mrs. Barnes.” you looked at him, shocked to your core. What could be harder to say than your husband was killed by the enemy?

“Back in October ‘43 they collected the bodies of the fallen soldiers in Azzano. What appeared to be your deceased husband, among them.” he took a breath as you held yours. “They stumbled upon a soldier last month in Steindorf, Austria.” you barely remembered you were supposed to be breathing. “He claims to be your husband, Mrs. Barnes.” you felt the tears well up in your eyes as you thought over the things Mr. Marshall had told you.

“We’re uncertain of his identity at this moment, but he has given us a lot of information about a weapon facility in Kreischberg, which we’re currently looking into.” Mr. Marshall took your other hand and faced you. “Mrs. Barnes… This might not be easy for you, but would you be so kind as to come with me to Washington, to identify this man? I know it’s, of course, a lot to ask.” you looked up at him with wide eyes.

“Mr. Marshall… This is really big news. I can’t begin to fathom…” you broke into a sob when you didn’t know what else to do.

“He also told us about the day they were captured. He explained he had given his tags and a letter to one of his soldiers, ordering him to get it safely to New York for him. That must have been the man we identified as your husband back then.” you choked on another sob. There was so much information to process for you. Burying the wrong man. But who? Bucky being alive? You didn’t know what startled you most of the new information.

“When is he coming to the States?” you asked the man beside you. You watched his steady breathing, wondering how he stayed so calm.

“He’s already here, Mrs. Barnes. They’ve been monitoring him for the last two weeks in a facility down in Washington. He was severely underweight when the soldiers found him in Austria, but he managed to stay alive.” Mr. Marshall offered you a small smile. “If you’re willing, could you join me today?” he asked, taking you aback yet again. You nodded slightly. All you wanted was your Bucky back.

“Let me just pack our things and we’ll join you on your way, Mr. Marshall.” you said with a small, careful smile before rising from the couch to pack some clothes for you and junior. As soon as you had clasped up one of Bucky’s bags containing your and juniors garments, you followed Mr. Marshall, locking up your apartment before getting in the back of his vehicle, softly rocking the baby in your arms. His suit-clad men helped putting your bag in the back, and Mr. Marshall joined you shortly after.

The ride was silent. Junior slept soundly in your arms, and you made no effort in trying to small talk with Mr. Marshall. This was such a weird situation, and you hadn’t had any time to process any of it. When you got closer to the facility, Mr. Marshall started talking to you about what to expect. You needed to be aware of things that could happen.

“He reacted very poorly to the staff at the facility. He told one of the men, Roone, that they had tortured him back in Austria, and that he was afraid. You need to be careful, Mrs. Barnes. And we may have to keep him for a little while to see how he responds to you. It would be best if you didn’t bring the baby for your first meeting. Maybe that could trigger something within him. Just go slow, and we’ll try and guide you through everything.” you nodded, and sighed with relief.

“Right this way Mrs.” a nurse told you, as you entered the facility the next morning. You had the baby on your arm, not sure how to handle being away from him. The nurse smiled at you when you reached a set of doors, pushing and holding them open for you.

“I’ve called for a midwife to look after your child while you visit the soldier. I’m not certain of how much time you have with him today.” you nodded and found yourself standing outside a door. There wasn’t any name on it, and you figured they still weren’t sure of his identity. The midwife came and you kissed juniors forehead before handing him over silently.

The nurse led you into the room, and there he was. Your husband. Bucky was sitting on the edge of the bed, head down, looking at his feet. When he heard footsteps approaching, his head shot up. Tears welled up in your eyes as you took him in for the first time in a year - his tangled hair a mess upon his head, his thin arms and legs. The playful glint in his eyes was long gone, and any small spark of hope reignited when his eyes landed on you.

“(y/n)?” he whispered, and you hurried to him as he rose from the bed. You wrapped your arms tightly around his neck, the feeling of his malnourished body relaxing in your embrace leaving you in a fit of sobs. You felt your shoulder grow wet as he buried his head there, his arms coming around your waist tightly, never wanting to let you go again. You cried in each others arms until Bucky’s legs gave out. He needed to sit for a while. You held his hand and looked at him, taking him in yet again.

His eyes were sunk in, his cheekbones too prominent and his lips were cracked and dry. Your hand came up to slowly caress his face. “Is this okay?” you asked before touching him, and he nodded slowly. You grazed his cheek as you felt the love you had bottled up for so many months finally spill over. “Oh Bucky!” you exclaimed as tears fell down your cheeks. His eyes found yours and he took your hand from his cheek.

“I’m s-so sorry, my d-darling.” he managed to stutter. He didn’t trust his voice yet. You choked on another sob as your arms once again fell around his neck, clinging on to him as if your life depended on it. He was finally here. He was finally home.

February 1945

“Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Mason! Happy Birthday to you!” you and Bucky sung to your now one-year-old baby boy, blowing the candle out.

You had a hard time comprehending all that happened the last year. The birth of your son. Bucky being found alive. Months of rehabilitation. Bucky coming home. Bucky recovering. You and Bucky officially tying the knot in front of your families, and the naming of your son. And finally, the liberation of what remained of the 107th Infantry Regiment. It had been a lot harder for Bucky than it had for you.

Bucky had to learn to eat again. He had to learn how to walk again, and talk again. He had to learn how to let people in again. He had to learn how to trust people again. He had to learn how to love again. And how to be intimate again. It was amazing when it finally happened, but still, there was so much holding him back. It was hard for you to watch him go through all this pain, but seeing him healthy and so happy on his son’s first birthday was worth it.

“I love you so much, sprout.” he cooed into the toddlers ear. He kissed Mason’s cheek gently, ruffling his hair as the kiss turned into a raspberry kiss. You admired them appreciatively, Bucky’s love for his family overcoming you yet again, the tears slipping out of your eyes, rolling down your cheeks. “And I love you. I don’t know what I would do without you, my love.” he said as he pulled you into his arms and kissed you deeply.

“I love you, Bucky. We love you.” you said as you gave him another kiss, your thumb coming up to graze his cheek. He laid his forehead against yours, sighing as he grasped your hand.

“Thank you baby. For always being there. For helping me through the hardest of times… For staying with me. For never leaving me.” his eyes filled with tears as he choked the last part out, holding your body tightly against his. He stroked your sides lovingly, while you met his lips in another kiss.

“We will never leave you Bucky. I promised you that. We promised each other.” you said as you broke away from him. “We love you so much. All three of us.”

𝘽𝙍𝙊𝙒𝙉

the feeling of being suffocated between a woman’s thighs is something… unexplainable

it’s truly an ecstasy all its own which is why brown likes it so much

he loves arching his head back, jaw tight from his open mouth, tongue flicking and nudging at your most sensitive points

and he loves the way you grip his hands as he does it, using them as reigns to help you grind

because he’s alright on his own, fueled purely by the films he gets off to

but when you find the right rhythm for you, it’s heaven

by the time you’re about to come it all sounds so wet and you just feel so good and he’s grabbing all over you, gathering sweat in his palms from excitement

his nose is smushed against your pelvis when you practically bend over to hump into your orgasm, shaking and gasping hard as he brings you over the edge

𝙋𝙄𝙉𝙆

he’d usually be knuckle deep inside you, face so close he has no choice but to taste it

he’ll give you a few kitten licks, which you take with much gratification, moaning louder than you had before

and his scruff rubs so tenderly against your skin that you buck your hips into the roughness, a near growl escaping your mouth

he holds your hips down with one hand, his long fingers splayed out, knuckles red

that’s a lovely sight within itself….

your legs begin to quiver with his other hand is still playing you from the inside

he curls just right, pressing fiercely against your trigger and you have to cover your mouth because you nearly cry from how hard you come

he’s pleased with himself, but immediately brushes his teeth afterward :/

𝙒𝙃𝙄𝙏𝙀

spreads your legs apart like he just happened upon the most beautiful field of flowers

“such a pretty girl.”

you get wetter just from his words, and he knows it too

he’ll “sweetheart” his way into your panties any day of the week! cooing and kissing on you until you’re pleading for his tongue

loves to have your legs up over his shoulders or have your feet rest on them, your comfort is always important to him

he’ll take breaks to breathe, grinning at you as you pant and run your hands through his hair

but then he goes straight back to tongue fucking you, his mouth so wet and soft

encourages you to come in such a gentle voice, then he licks you absolutely clean

𝘽𝙇𝙊𝙉𝘿𝙀

loves to do it most when you’re already so spent

he’ll pull out of you and grab onto your calves so he can lasso you to the edge of the bed and devour you with every last fiber of his being

he moves slow, deathly slow & his kisses are deep, long, & wet

you curl your hand along the side of his head, palm to his ear as your legs flail and quiver from weakness

and all you can do is whine and whimper his name, jerking out of his mouth because you’re so sensitive

but he just grabs onto your thighs, keeping you open for him, forehead forming wrinkles as his eyes pan up to watch your shaking chest and stomach, your beady eyes

“that’s it, baby,” he hums, hardening his tongue when he knows you’re close. “look at me…”

and most of the time you can come from how pretty he looks down there. he’s just that powerful

𝙊𝙍𝘼𝙉𝙂𝙀

literally….. give this man a medal

freddy puts his whole face in it, nose, mouth, chin, he embraces it all

and he’s so eager, smiling and chuckling the whole time, his tongue flickering like a fucking garden sprinkler

he always has a hand on your breast, teasing your nipple between his fingers while his other fingers slip inside you, his lips sucking hard on your clit

love love loves when you suck his fingers while he goes down on you

he also loves to flip you on your stomach and get at you from behind, spreading your ass and thighs

you push back against his face and all he can do is moan, he’s just so enamored by how sexy you are

he goes so fast that you never have time to keep up with your own climb and before you know it you’re crying for him to make you come

he’s so muffled as he talks you through it through his open mouth, “comeformebaby… comeforme…”

𝙀𝘿𝘿𝙄𝙀

nearly always finds a way to get you to suck his dick at the same time, but nevertheless you don’t complain

he likes the way your moans feel when they vibrate along his cock

you’ll come more than once when eddie’s involved because you won’t stop until he comes and that can take a while

when you’re in 69, he’ll wrap his arms around your waist so you can’t move, absolutely demolishing your pussy with his mouth

other times he’ll make your spread your vulva for him and he’ll let a string of spit run down on you to get you wetter

he loves how wet you get

rotates between rubbing and licking your clit

always does a courtesy fuck afterward no matter how many times you came beforehand cuz he just can't resist

Sidewinder: Volume I - Budd (Kill Bill) x Reader [Smut]

Synopsis: You’re a member of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad. Budd is just what you need, but do you need more?

Notes: This is part one, and there will be a part two! There's brief smut in this one, there'll be more in the next. This has most of the action :)

Part Two Here

You enjoyed the name Bill had so fondly picked out for you. Taipan. The world’s deadliest snake.

You had only been working with the Vipers for about a year, but it was a seamless incorporation into the team. You got along well with each member—especially Sidewinder.

Budd could never keep his eyes off you. You were talented at knowing exactly when a man was picturing you taking off your clothes, but with Budd, it was all the time. The looks he gave you-- like he wanted to devour you, just like his snake of calling would prey-- intrigued you.

See, the first thing you did when you joined the team was assess who you would sleep with, and who was off limits. A girl's got to have limits when travelling in a close knit pack of attractive assassins.

O-Ren? Attractive, but too dedicated to her work to probably notice you in any other way than a confidant.

Vernita? Straight. She's made it clear.

Elle? A fucking knockout, but a dangerous one. She's OFF limits.

Bill? Well. We won't go there yet.

Bea? She's different.

And then there was Budd.

Although he came off as a tough guy, he got some of his older brother's charm with his own little twist. He was different, and frustrating-- serious when things were light, and funny when things were serious. He didn't take himself as serious as the others, but you got the sense he was dumbing himself down so he wouldn't stand out as the best.

Tonight, Budd runs a damp cloth down his arm, where a deep gash runs down.

"Fuck," you hear him grit out, and stop on your way by.

"Be grateful it wasn't a Hattori Hanzo. You would've lost your arm.” He looks up, and huffs.

"Yeah."

You stare at him a while as he switches to stitching, and he looks back up, staring back.

"Why do you do that?"

"What?" he hesitates expectantly. You fold your arms.

"Let yourself fall into those situations. You could get out of them."

"You think I wanted someone to tear my arm to shreds?" he scoffs, going back to his work, "You are one crazy bitch."

"Hey," you stand square in front of him, "You're not the fucking palooka Bill and the others think you are."

"Thanks. I'll remember that next time I'm crying alone in my room, sweetheart."

You roll your eyes, and brush past him, knocking the previously-sterile needle out of his hands. "Fuck," he repeats gruffly, and you feel his eyes on you as you walk off toward the pit, where you know Beatrix is.

"Hey," you say, opening the door. The blonde whirls around, nearly kicking you in the face, but you grab her by the shin, twisting her. She lands on the ball of her foot, spins, and kicks again, twice to your knee. As you fall, you flip her, and the two of you crash to the floor.

"Draw?" she croaks out, reaching behind her. You shake her hand.

"Yeah."

"Bill's best assassins," she huffs, taking off her gloves and laughing. You help her up.

"Ruthless trained killers."

You go over with her as she sprays herself with a bottle. "Sorry about that. Thought you were Vernita. We've had this thing..."

"Yeah, where you try to kill each other every time the other one enters the room? We’ve all noticed. That glass table in the living room didn't shatter itself."

"The carpet's still covered in her blood," Bea grins in sadistic satisfaction, and you raise an eyebrow, handing her a towel.

"Which O-Ren practically had a meltdown over when she had her new slippers on, let me just point out. But I have to admit, the red goes with that vase on the mantle.”

“What can I say? I have an affinity for decorating,” Bea smirks, and you two walk out together into the long hallway of the flat. The penthouse suite here in Shanghai that operated as the main digs for the seven of you was the most expensive property in the city, but Bill didn’t care. The luxury was worth it, he said, as he loved to spoil his girls.

“Aw. Does that make you my sugar daddy, honey?” Budd had joked, and Bill had resisted the urge to whack his brother upside the head and settled instead for a long, annoyed glare.

"Watch this," O'Ren stops you two, "Elle's got a dime coming my way in fifteen seconds."

"Like, a 10/10 girl, or an actual coin?" you joke. O'Ren cocks her head.

"I could slice both in half, so it doesn't really matter." A coin whizzes by her face, and in the matter of a split second, she slices the dime in half with her

"Did it work?" Elle asks, sauntering in around the corner. O'Ren smirks, opening her palm to reveal two halves. The two do a secret handshake, and you and Bea keep going.

"Did you see what happened to Budd?" she asks, shaking her head.

"Yeah," you mutter, "He's slow on missions."

"I'd say he's just clumsy."

"That too."

That night as you go to sleep though, staring at the shadows of the skyscrapers outside on your wall, you think of Budd. His deep, drawling voice... the way he looks at you. Your hand slides down between your legs, and you close your eyes.

"That was a shit show!" Elle announces, and you all collapse back into the flat. Two weeks from where you started, you'd just acquired the head of a crime boss... who knew you were coming. While you had succeeded in killing him, his hundred other acolytes had definitely run you out of there fast. So, somewhat of a success. Somewhat of a failure. Two guesses as to which one Bill considered it.

"Fuck," Budd huffed, using his gun to support him. A bullet had grazed his knee, and while it tore open his pants and skin a little, he was okay. Vernita had gotten one in the shoulder... Bea had taken it out, with your help. You had knife slashes all over your neck-- but at least you're still breathing.

"Taipan," Bill says, nodding to you, "Good job." You look down at Bea, who gives you a reassuring smile. She knows what's coming for her, the usual chat.

While the others are recovering, and Bill is giving them a calm 'talk' about the importance of working together, not going rogue (this last anecdote was directed solely at Beatrix) you slip away.

Walking fast, you get to an empty corridor, and close your eyes, resting your head back against it.

Fuck. Sensory overload-- assassins got it too. You just needed to breathe.

"You okay?"

You open your eyes, and see Budd blocking the light from beside you.

"Yeah," you answer, too quickly. "What makes you think I'm not?"

"Don't fuckin' shoot me, but uh... you just seemed a little off your game."

"I am not off my game," you growl, cocking your handgun, "If I was, I'd be dead." He chuckles, putting his hands up.

"Okay, wrong words. You checked in on me the other day... this is me, checkin' in on you, angel." You sigh through your nose, and glance over.

"How are you?"

"Fine. Just a couple scratches." You laugh. It's actually funny to you how this life teaches you to pass these injuries off. "What's so funny?"

"Nothing. We're just fucked up."

He smirks, sliding in closer to you. "Well, we... knew that, didn't we?"

You breathe in his scent-- cigarettes, leather, gunpowder, and liquorice aftershave. It's all too much-- he's too close, and you have too much pent up energy. Your skin is positively electric, so is his, and Budd's lips are so fucking there--

"Go ahead. Kiss me," he groans, and you do, pressing your lips forward. Your hands go to his chest, and you push him against the opposite wall. The two of you make out like that for a few minutes, before he lifts you up. You wrap your legs around his hips, and reach down to unbuckle his torn up black dress pants in a hasty rush.

"Fuck, daddy," you moan, finally receiving him. He groans something similar, burying his face in your neck, and you're pinned against the wall, bouncing with every rough thrust he gives you.

"Daddy's got his girl. That's right... fuck, mmm, baby girl..." He's big, and everything you had imagined. Each and every pound of his dick erases one kill you made that night, one target, one bullet, one slash.

Forget it, forget it, unffff...

Your blood hums in your ears, heart pumping. You're still feeling the adrenaline from today, and you need this, you fucking need to come so bad, god Budd is so good...

"Come on, angel," he rasps, holding you tight, "You're perfect. Be a good girl and come for me."

You cry out, grasping his big shoulders, and he fucks you through it, rocking you. He pounds in a few more times, then pulls out, coming against the wall.

A few seconds of silence pass, the dull chatter of Bill's passive-aggressive admonishment still floating from the living space. Budd looks like he's going to try and say something. You want to hear it, but you don't allow yourself to.

Budd cleans the wall, and rubs a hand up your inner thigh. You grind your hips a little, and stretch.

"I needed that." It was your version of thanks. He nods, smiling softly. Then you walk past him, back to your room, and curl up, hugging a pillow.

----

"Budd. Sit."

"What's up, big brother?" Budd asks, slouching on the couch. He's got a lot on his mind, but he never lets it affect his work. He had a lot of problems with what he did, and not much of an outlet for the pain of it except you. He'd be lying if he said he wasn't a little nervous... his brother was good at finding out about things, and with Budd and you right now, there was a lot to find out.

"Black Mamba."

Budd relaxes a little. "Mm? What about her?" he asks, lighting a cigarette.

"She needs to be taken out."

Budd gets serious, leaning forward. Normally, he would never ask questions, but he knows how close you are to Beatrix... and how close Bill is himself.

"Can I ask why?" Budd asks, voice barely above a whisper.

Bill doesn't turn around. "No, you may not."

----

You and Beatrix sit by the campfire. It's the Mojave Desert nighttimes that get you sentimental, and right now, you're feeling it under the stars.

It's about two months since you and Budd started sleeping together to help beat stress after missions. Each time, he'd find you, in the kitchen, in your room, in his room, in a closet, on the balcony, wherever, and fuck you until you sobbed. It's always hot, and it's always satisfying.

You always want more... but each time he asks what you can become, with those hopeful, lovesick icy blue eyes, you respond with the same thing:

"It's not personal."

You hate the crestfallen looks more than anything, but it's self defence. It's probably best for him, as well. What good did feelings ever do you? What good would they ever do? It's a weakness you both can't afford to harbour.

"Hey," Bea interrupts your deep thoughts, poking the fire. You look up at her through the orange sparks. "Is there something going on between you and Budd?"

Your defences go up. "No."

She just smiles. "I had a thing with Bill once. It's okay. They're attractive brothers. Can I ask you a question?"

"As long as it's not that one."

"How many scars you have? Physical scars."

You smile. "A lot."

"I mean... ones that aren't from this."

You feel your wrist deftly. "I fell when I was six, split my thumb. Fell when I was 10, split my knee. Fell when I was 13, split my elbow-- see where this is going? Then Bill came along to get me, I met you, and hell-- I'm one big walking scar now." She laughs.

"I only have one from before." She reaches down to her wrist, and clears her throat. "Tai, I've... (y/n). I've been meaning to say something."

"Yeah?" You take a swig from your beer bottle, setting it down. You wipe the dust from your hands off on your low rise jeans.

"I wanna say... I know friendship is discouraged in this line of work. But you're the closest thing to a sister I've got. And I wanted to say thank you."

Your mind stalls a little. You don't say thank you in this business. You just don't. But this is different, you can tell. No snarky jabs. No teasing. Just...

"You're welcome," you answer, and the two of you clink your beers over the fire. She looks down.

"I'm pregnant."

"What?" you choke.

"I want you to be the godmother."

"Bea--"

"Please."

You stay silent. If you even mentioned this to anyone else, you'd both be dead. But despite all warnings, you can't help but nod.

---

"Listen to what I'm telling you, honey."

Your tears fall silently on your hand, and you wipe them off before Budd notices them. "I don't want to hear anything you have to say. Or Bill."

"If you don't do it..." he murmurs desperately, "He'll kill you. He'll make me kill you." You know this. You know it plain as day.

"You're going to betray her."

"I'm doing my job. You do yours, and we come out clean. We can..." he sighs, holding you closer to him, "We can even get away for a while. You and me."

You calm yourself down, and let Budd kiss you down to the pillows. Don't make attachments. There's no reason why you can't carry this out. Every snake for herself.

---

Beatrix stands in the middle of the circle, looking around.

"What is this?"

You try to look her in the eye. She glares dead ahead at Bill. You're all standing in the middle of the desert, by a church.

"Has to be done, Bea," Bill says, and everyone gets out their guns.

"You know I can tear through each and every one of you," she snarls.

"Not her, honey," Budd speaks up, looking at you. "You two are matched. If you tear through all of us, you've still got her." The blonde looks at you, hurt evident in her eyes.

"You may call me sadistic," Bill continues, "But I'd argue that right now, I'm at my most... masochistic."

Budd rubs your back softly, and you squeeze your eyes shut.

"Bill--" Bea tries to plead. "It's your ba--"

Unable to bear it, you turn your gun on Bill, and start firing before he can shoot her. You know Budd will help you. There's a flurry of bullets, and Budd looks over at you. You look at him, and he goes to make a jump for you... you think you see his gun pulled, and you're stunned. Would he really do you in for Bill?

A bullet clips you in the back of the ribs, just grazing vitals, and you fall over.

O'Ren stands over you, and prods you with a grin.

"It appears the Taipan can be outmatched."

"You sick pieces of shit," Budd whispers under his breath, turning away.

Beatrix screams, Budd drops his weapon, and the guns are turned on the Black Mamba.
