I Want To Kiss- Kill... I Want To Kill You

Summary: Janus is a cold hearted assassin. No attachments, no emotion. Only guns and targets. Until one beautiful stranger messss it all up. Or - Janus gets gay-panic on a plane and can't seem to shake it off.

Pairing: pre-romantic Roceit

Warnings: guns, mentions of killing and death, assassins, kissing, making out, sorta enemies to lovers I guess. Let me know if I missed any.

Word count: 2,216

For @roceit2023 day 2 - assassin

----------------------------------------------------------

Don't get attached.

That's the first rule for being an assassin.

At least, that's the first rule Janus' father taught him. When Janus asked why that was the first rule, he told him that a few months after he was born, he was ordered to kill Janus' mom. They were short of money so his dad couldn't afford to turn down a job. He lost his edge after that mission, never being able to kill again.

Which is why Janus was tasked with keeping their family's reputation.

And keeping it he did.

Janus was a master at not getting attached, not letting his missions and his growing number of body count affect him in any way. Emotion had no part to play in his lifestyle.

Suffice to say, Janus was one of the top assassins in the business. With his cold and calculating demeanor and his sharp shooting, there wasn't a target beyond his abilities.

Until one flight changed it all.

----------------------------------------------------------

He got on a flight to his next target's location. Janus was pleased to find no one else sitting in his row when he got on. No screaming children or strangers falling asleep on his shoulder this time.

He put on his headphones and relaxed back into his chair, humming along to the music. Then, someone decided to tap his shoulder.

Reluctantly, he took off his headphones and turned to look at the stranger. He gulped a little when he met eyes with the cutest guy he ever laid eyes on.

He had short, brown hair with bangs that fell neatly on his forehead, drawing attention to his green eyes with a touch of blue in them. He was smiling at Janus, showing perfect, white teeth and unnaturally soft lips.

"Hey there! My seat is on this row too, do you mind letting me pass through to the window seat?" Asked the pretty stranger.

Don't get attached.

Echoed in his mind as all Janus could do was nod and get up to let him pass. He was about to put his headphones back, desperately trying to keep his cheeks from burning bright red, when the stranger decided to engage in small talk.

"So why are you going to London?" The stranger asked, still smiling.

"Why, to meet the queen of course." Janus snarked in response.

The stranger snorted, the sound making Janus smile a little as well. "Are you now? Am I required to bow to you?"

Janus raised an eyebrow, "I wouldn't be opposed." The stranger laughed.

"I'm Roman." Roman said, stretching out his hand in greeting.

Don't get attached

Echoed faintly in his mind as he shook Roman's hand. "I'm Janus." He introduced himself, "what is your business in London?"

Roman shrugged, "just personal stuff I need to take care of." He said dismissively.

…too dismissively.

The kind of dismissive tone Janus himself used at times when he bumped into nosey strangers during his missions. It was an effective way to help you seem both uninteresting and interesting enough that makes the stranger's curiosity sated enough to leave you alone.

Janus met Roman's eyes and they both shared a flash of understanding.

Well, that was an interesting development. It's not often that you meet other assassins in this business, but Janus supposes it's not impossible.

Janus smirked, "I see, good luck with your personal stuff, then."

Roman smiled, "thank you, I do hope luck is on my side for this one."

Then, a thought struck Janus. "You don't think your personal stuff is similar to mine, do you?"

Roman shrugged again, "I don't think so, my situation is pretty unique, crazy family stuff I really don't feel like getting into right now."

Janus relaxed a little, "oh, good."

…

"I'm in position." He said into his earpiece.

He was lying on his belly on a building's rooftop, his sniper rifle positioned directly at the edge. It was the latest model, his dad got it for him after his last mission, a brand new M40A5. He was waiting to test this baby out.

"Good, our info says the target should enter the building any second now, it can't make it through the door." His dad replied in his ear.

"I know, dad." Janus rolled his eyes.

"Be careful, Jan, this target is known to be tricky-"

"I got it, dad, this isn't my first rodeo." Janus cut him off with a huff. "I got this."

He heard his father sigh, "knock 'em dead, son."

Janus smirked, "I always do."

After a few minutes, he spotted a figure walking towards the building in front of him.

"Target sighted." Janus said into his earpiece, adjusting his position and aiming his rifle, squinting his eye to look through the crosshairs of it, directing the + directly to the target's head. "Taking aim."

He took a steadying breath and held it in to keep his chest from rising and falling. His trigger finger started slowly putting pressure on the trigger when-

Footsteps coming up to the roof.

They were faint, any normal person wouldn't have heard them. But Janus' instincts were sharp.

He had to act quickly.

He repositioned, aiming to shoot the target before dealing with whoever's coming, but before he can pull the trigger, a warning shot went just past his left ear.

He cursed, he wasn't quick enough.

"Jan? What was that? Is everything okay?"

"I've got company, I'll call you back." He tapped his earpiece to hung up the conversation before his dad can protest.

He stood up, taking out his hand-gun from the hidden holster underneath his clothes, and shot at where he estimated his little guest was from the warning shot earlier.

"Come out, come out wherever you are." Janus tried teasing them out of hiding. Holding his gun in front of him, he walked towards the entrance to the roof, senses on high alert and heart beating in his chest. "These are your final moments anyway, don't go out like a coward."

He heard a faint laugh at that and aimed his gun towards the sound.

"You're the one to talk." A figure holding a gun emerged from the shadows and into the faint moonlight.

Janus recognized that voice.

"Roman?" Now that he can see his opponent's face, it was clear. Roman made him fail the mission, and he was going to try and kill him.

"Hello, Janus." He spat the name like it was a curse, all the pleasantness gone from his voice. 

"You did have the same target as me, I knew it." Janus accused Roman.

Roman laughed again, "not quite, The Slither, my target… is you." He said, using Janus' assassin nickname that he took from his father. "Or rather, not you personally but we were informed about an assassination attempt on my brother so of course, he asked me to help him."

"Aww the target's hiding behind his dear brother, how cute. How very noble of you to help him, even though it's entirely his fault for getting mixed up with the wrong people." Janus said, stepping cautiously closer to Roman, "this has nothing to do with you and I have a reputation to keep so how about we-"

He was cut off by another warning shot, narrowly missing his shoulder. "You talk too much."

"You love it." Janus teased, ignoring his racing heart that had nothing to do with the dangerous situation, he was no stranger to those. But Roman was still so goddamn beautiful, so unfair.

Don't get attached

"Oh, so your ego is as big as they say." Roman said, a light smirk tagging on his lips and damn that smirk sent Janus' brain to a spiral.

What was with him today? He's been attracted to random men before but never like this! He knows better than that… doesn't he?

"Do you always clean up after your brother's mess?" Janus ignored Roman's comment. Neither of them tried shooting the other yet. They both had their guns pointed and were waiting for an opening.

The question seemed to have struck a nerve as Roman's shoulders slacked ever so slightly, gun still pointed directly at Janus. "What do you know? You're from a family of killers. I kill to protect my only family, you do it for money and reputation." Roman said, obviously avoiding answering Janus' question.

"Is your brother the only reason you became an assassin?" Janus asked with a raised eyebrow, "did he rope you into his mess? Doesn't seem like he deserves your protection to me."

"Good thing I didn't ask for your opinion then." Roman growled.

It then occurred to Janus, even if he gets his opening to shoot Roman… he's not sure he would. 

He sighed. "Look, my window closed, I failed the mission, I'm not going to get anything from killing your brother anymore, there's no reason for you to kill me, you did your job." Janus said truthfully.

Roman barked a laugh, "sorry, I don't trust Slithers."

Then, Janus did the stupidest thing he had ever done in his life, he let his guard down… literally. He lowered his gun and dropped it on the ground, kicking it towards Roman. "Kill me then." He challenged.

"W-what? What the hell are you doing?!" Roman yelled in surprise.

"Um… surrendering? Wasn't that obvious?" Janus said, sitting down on the roof.

Roman squinted his eyes at him, "do you have another hidden gun or something?"

He laid down on his back on the cold roof, putting his hands under his head, "nope."

"What game are you playing here?" Roman asked, desperately trying to figure out what was happening.

"No games, Pretty Boy, you can kill me… if you want to." Janus said, looking up at Roman and winking at him.

It was hard to tell with just the moonlight being the only light source, but Janus thought he saw Roman's cheeks flush a little. "I… Of course I want to! I have to, that's the only reason I'm here!" Roman said, although it sounded more like he was talking to himself rather than Janus.

Janus shrugged, "then do it, nothing's stopping you."

Roman took a deep breath and aimed his gun again. Janus braced himself as he heard him click the safety off… but nothing happened.

"Ugh what's wrong with me today?! I've done this enough times! It shouldn't be so hard!" Roman groaned, lowering his gun and sitting down next to Janus.

Janus let out a sigh, "you and me both, pretty boy."

"Would you stop calling me that? You should be long dead, you know. You're lucky you're so…" he trailed off, looking away from him.

Janus smirked, "so… what? So charming? So handsome? So funny? So smart?"

"Annoying, is what I was going to say." Roman said, though he didn't sound much annoyed.

Janus snickered, "right, of course."

There was a long moment of silence before Roman spoke up.

"Sometimes… sometimes I wonder how I got here." He said, sounding tired. He then laughed softly, "I thought I was going to be an actor."

"So what happened?" Janus asked curiously.

"My parents died… and Remus needed me. He had his own ways of coping… not legal ones but he wouldn't listen to me. One thing led to another and… here we are." Roman said, sounding sad and regretful.

"That's why being an only child rules." Janus said, attempting to lighten the mood.

Roman snorted despite himself, "are you incapable of being serious?"

Janus shrugged, "no, I'm just uncomfortable with it so I use sarcasm to deflect, made you laugh though."

Roman laughed, "can't argue with that."

Another moment of silence in which Roman switched from sitting next to Janus, to lying next to him, mimicking his position. They both stared at the dark blue sky for a while.

"What are we going to do now?" Roman asked softly as if trying to maintain the peaceful moment.

Janus rolled to his side to face Roman and he did the same. 

"I guess… we go on with our lives… right?"

Their eyes met, Roman's eyes glittering in the moonlight, making him look even more unreasonably beautiful.

Don't. Get. Attached.

The voice in his head insisted. But, for the first time in his life, Janus ignored it. 

He leaned in closer, testing. When Roman didn't pull away, he took his hand and used it to tag him closer until their lips met in a hesitant kiss that grew more bold as neither of them pulled away.

They broke to catch their breaths. 

"This… this is crazy, right? I mean… just minutes ago we were trying to kill each other! You're only here because you were going to kill my brother!" Roman said, trying to process how fast they were moving.

"Romantic, isn't it?" Janus teased and Roman snorted again. Janus was starting to get addicted to the sound. "You've liked me since our flight, haven't you, Romeo?" 

Roman was definitely blushing now. "...no."

"Liar." Janus smirked, pressing their lips together again in a quick peck.

But, before he could pull away, Roman cupped the back of his head and pulled him closer to a hungry kiss that never seemed to end.

Soon, they'll be forced to figure out how they'll move on from here. But, for now, they get to enjoy each other's company.

Roceit Week 2022

Day 3: Hand/Touch-Starved

Word Count: 346

Warnings: None I can Think Of?

Available On Ao3

@roceitweek

I was sitting near Roman, trying to ignore him, as he ignored me. He was drawing in a sketchbook, and I was reading one of my books.

“Janus! Look! I drew it anatomically correct!” Roman chirped, shoving his book in my face.

“Yes, yes. Well done Roman,” I hummed, trying to read my book. He pouted, staying where he was.

“You’re not looking!” he whined, still shoving the book in my face. I sighed, putting my book down, making sure to mark the page I was on, before facing his, looking at his drawing.

“Good job Roman,” I spoke calmly, smiling slightly, reaching for my book again.

“Hey… um why do you never want to touch or be affectionate?” he mumbled. I sighed, as I stopped reaching for my book.

“Do you want the truth, or for me to spare your emotions?”

“Uh… the truth?” I nodded, sighing softly.

“Growing up half-snake, little kids think you have nasty germs and won’t touch you. Teens will think you’re a freak and won’t touch you. And with having no one around as a youth, then… you are not likely to have anyone touch you as an adult,” I calmly explained to him.

“Oh, so you’re touch starved. You could’ve just said so. Do you want a hug?” I froze at his response. Touch starved? Me? No. How could I be touch starved?

“I…. suppose it couldn’t hurt,” I mumbled to him. He smiled so brightly, it made me smile. He then hugged me, and I sighed, relaxing into it. It was so warm and nice. He was so close. How have I never done this before?

“Are you enjoying this Snake?”

“Yes… I don’t know how I’ve never done this before,” I murmured, trying to get closer to him.

“Because people were mean to you when you were younger.”

“And I closed myself off, to not get hurt again.”

“Mhm. But you have me now my little snake. And I will give you as many hugs as you want.”

“Thank you, Roman. I love you so much.”

Day 3: Hands & Touch Starvation

cause why do 1 when u can do both

[prince-rowan-of-the-forest]

Today's @roceitweek prompt- finally back up to date and ready for tomorrow :D

I had so much fun drawing the pose for this one, Roman's head gave me trouble and I probably looked like a weirdo in biology class trying to do that pose subtly over my chair to work out wtf I was doing-

I have some weakly thought out backstory for this scenario, but I'm lazy, if you want it yeet and ask at me or comment or something- whatever Tumblr people do when they want something from a creator ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[the-duke-of-nuts]

Day 1: (Rose)/Reconcile @roceitweek

Dramatic Beloveds

[xandriagreat]

Rose/reconcile

This is for @roceitweek

Roman is giving Janus a rose as a gift.

I thought about the topic and Hadestown musical came up in my head. But instead of Orpheus and Eurydice, Janus and Roman are Hades and Persephone (like in the past)

Roceit Week 2022

Day 2: Dance/Protect

Word Count: 369

Warnings: Mean (Not quite U!sides?) sides, (Let me know if I missed any)

Available On Ao3

@roceitweek

“Oh Roman. This… isn’t really your conversation to participate in. We don’t need creativity. We need to comfort Thomas’ friends.”

“B-but… But I’m more than Creativity,” I tried to point out. Why won’t they let me help?

“Enough Roman. Just let us deal with this. You’re not needed,” Logan snapped.

“But-”

“I said enough!” I sighed, nodding slowly, sinking out. Everyone was out. Logan, Patton, and Virgil were helping Thomas. Remus… was god knows where. And Janus- Janus! I can go to him.

I went to Janus’ room, timidly knocking on his door. I waited a few moments before he opened it.

“Hello, Roman. What did you need?” Janus asked calmly.

“Um….” I mumbled, trying to explain.

“I am going to assume that the others kicked you out of their conversation because they refuse to see who you really are?”

“I… how did you know?”

“I know everything mi amour.” I smiled softly, slowly entering his room, dragging him to his bed. He sat down, and I snuggled up to him. I then felt his hand in my hair, though, not his gloved hand, his bare hand. That’s rare. He hardly takes his gloves off.

We stayed there for a while, as I was unsure of what to say.

“Do you want to explain what happened this time?” Janus asked softly.

“Mhm. On-one of Thomas’ friends needed our help, so I… I tried to help… they just see me as creativity,” I mumbled

“Oh, Dearest, I promise that I will protect you from their mean words.”

“Th-thank you,” I sniffled, staying close to him.

“Now, how about an activity to show them how amazing you are?”

“D-dancing?”

“Of course.” He smiled warmly at me, snapping us into different outfits. I was in my skirt outfit, and he was in his suit, the one he wore in the courtroom. He sunk us out to the living room, clapping his hands to summon some classical music. It began playing. It was nice.

“Now, how about that dance?” He asked, holding a hand out to me. I smiled a proper, real smile, as I took his hand. He pulled me close, putting his hands on me, as we began to ballroom dance.

if soemone did something for thsi event can they post it on other sites?

Mostly the event is going to take place here on this site, however everyone is allowed to post their work on other sites as well as on here! But unless it's something like a fic on ao3, I'm probably not going to be able to see it unless it's here on tumblr.
