Day 16: knife play | rosekiller
Tumblr media
smut
TW: knife play, choking, multiple orgasms, masturbation, piv, oral (fem! receiving), blood
You were nervous, sitting on your bed, wearing only a skimpy set which left little  to nothing to the imagination, fidgeting with the ribbon adorning the little box you held. You knew that it was stupid, you had already decided you were going to ask your boyfriend to try something new, but you were so nervous.
Lately, everything seemed to be off in your relationship. There was this… tension, you couldn’t really acknowledge what was happening, but you knew that the sex had got a bit boring, that Barty seemed to always have his mind somewhere else, somewhere you weren’t allowed, apparently.
Actually, you were lying to yourself: you had an idea about what had been disturbing your relationship, and that was Evan Rosier.
Evan, who had slowly, but surely, conquered a place into Barty’s life, first by sitting next to him in every and any class, often ending with you sitting right in front of them. Then, he was stealing Barty’s attention from you during lunch, during dinner, to the point where Barty often forgot about your dates, too busy hanging around with the blond guy. The worst part about this? You weren’t jealous about Barty, no, you were jealous over the fact that you weren’t a part of their… relationship. Evan was a hot guy, that much was obvious, but he was also kind, he had an alluring aura around him: he was intimidating, yes, but he was also so calm, you were drawn to him like a moth to a flame.
It all got worse when, one week ago, you were in tears after failing your herbology test, sitting in a corner in the women’s bathroom. He heard you, sat next to you, and hugged you tight: the worst part about it? In that moment, you didn’t wish for Barty to be there with you, no, you wished you could make that moment last forever. You wished you could stay in his arms, smelling his cologne, feeling the soft fabric of his jumper against your face until there was nothing left but you’re bones.
So, you were now sitting in your room, waiting for your boyfriend, knowing that this was your last chance to fix this mess: if you couldn’t fix this with sex, you knew you had to let go of the relationship, even if it broke your heart.
In that moment, Barty entered your room, followed by Evan. You widened your eyes, desperately trying to cover yourself, while the two guys had different reaction: while your boyfriend seemed embarrassed, Rosier was chuckling, his gaze trained on your face, then on your tits, then lower, much lower.
“What the fuck, Barty, this was supposed to be a fucking date!” You screeched, scrambling to find your blanket, only for Evan to cast a spell, making all the blankets vanish in thin air. You both looked at him, stunned. He scoffed.
“Listen, I thought you were a bit less dense, but it seems like you won’t understand this, so I’ll be really fucking clear: I like you both, and don’t even pretend to not like me back, because it’s obvious” He raised a brow at Barty. “You are always staring at my ass, and not in a bromance way, thank you very much” He turned to you, making you blush. “I don’t even need to say anything about you, your wet panties are enough evidence, so”
Barty seemed to mull it over, a slow smirk taking place on his face. “I do think your ass is really pretty.” You stared at them, mouth agape. Was this some type of twisted joke? Why was your boyfriend openly talking about his best friend’s ass, and why was this making you extremely turned on.
The brunette trained his gaze on you, a grin slowly taking over his face. “Come on, love, what do you think? Do we include the blonde slut in our relationship?”
“Hey”
“Shut up, Rosier, I know you get turned on when I degrade you”
“You’re right, won’t even try to pretend”
They both turned to look at you, as you shrinked into yourself. Sure, Evan was hot, and kind, and you kind of had a crush on him, but was this a good idea? “What… What if it doesn’t work out and I lose the both of you”
Evan cooed at you. “Awe, princess, look at you, already scared of losing me” He now stood in front of you, his hand on your jaw. “You won’t. If I get my hands on you two, you aren’t going anywhere, ever. I will be always next to you. It took too long to plan this out to see this blow in my face, you’re stuck with me. The both of you” He pushed his thumb inside of your mouth, you welcomed it, sucking at it tentatively. “Good girl” He whispered under his breath. Barty groaned; both of your heads snapped in his direction.
“I think we should seal this love path by fucking. What do you think, love?” You exhaled a breath you didn’t know you were holding. What was the point in pretending you didn’t want this? Evan put his lips right above your ear. “You would be the centre of our attention. Our little troublemaker, you would be our whole world.” He nipped at your earlobe. “Just think about how many orgasms you will be experiencing, two pairs of  hands exploring your body” One of his hands squeezed your right breast, gently, tentatively, only to strengthen his grip when you moaned. “Two dicks pounding into you”
“Yes. Yes, I’d like that” You saw them exchanging a pointed look. It was then that Barty spotted the little box you still held.
“What do you have there?”
You blushed furiously, not having the time to hide it before Evan caught it, holding it in front of you. As you reached for it, he casted a quick spell, actively immobilizing you. He opened it, ignoring your protests, only to let out a low whistle.
“What a kinky little minx you are. Look at this Barty” He flicked the knife, smirking at your boyfriend. “I think she wants us to use it on her, don’t you, princess?”
You licked your dry lips. “Y-yes, I’d really like that” Barty took the knife from Evan’s hands, kneeling in front of you. “Evan, spread her legs for me” As he casted the spell, your thighs fell open, and he was looking at the blond guy with an evil smirk. “Good boy”
Then, his attention was back on you. He traced the handle of the knife over your clit, the hard material collecting your juices through the panties. “Look at how wet she is. Do you want to feel this blade on your skin?” You nodded furiously, your mind soon clouding with the desire you felt for them.
“What’s your safeword?”
You gulped. “Pomegranate”
Evan smirked when he realized your safeword was, in fact, his favourite fruit. “She’s so sweet”
Barty smirked over his shoulder. “Just wait until you’ll taste her. You will get addicted” You blushed furiously, making the both of them coo at you. “Don’t get all shy now, love”
With one swift motion of the blonde’s wrist, your panties were gone, making Barty grumble. “What? I’ve been waiting for this moment since the first year, I’m getting a bit impatient, y’know?”
“Shut up and put your mouth to a better use”
Evan smirked sinfully. “Don’t have to tell me twice” Soon, he was kneeling down between your thighs, while Barty pushed you down, so that you were laying on your bed, your legs dangling softly. “So wet already, tell me, beautiful, did you fantasize about this moment? Did you dream of us two taking you, making you come until you only  remembered our names?” You moaned, incapable of holding it. “Look at that, Barty, does she always get this wet from dirty talking?”
You felt the blade caressing your skin, the sharp edge of it stinging while it traced a path from your navel up, until it reached the soft skin between your breasts. “Yes, Barty, I think she really likes that” He traced a finger from your whole up to your clit, collecting your wetness, then locking his gaze with yours while sucking at it.
You felt feverish, your mind suddenly blank, your ears were ringing, and they hadn’t even done something to make you react like this. When the blonde guy sucked gently at your clit, you felt like you were about to come, your thighs locking around his head. “Yes, baby, choke me with these thighs, I will die a happy man”
“So desperate, Rosier” Barty was still tracing white paths along your skin.
“I’ll always be like this with you two”
You moaned, while the brunette murmured a low ‘fuck’ under his breath. As Barty nipped the skin of your right breast, you felt like you were ready to come.
“Evan, don’t stop, please, I’m about to-“
“Already coming for me, sweetness? Are you going to let me taste you like a good girl? Then come, baby” As the finished talking, you orgasmed, your mind going blank for a straight minute while Evan didn’t let go of your clit, sucking at it, admiring your expressions from between your thighs.
When you came back on Earth, Barty was standing right between your thighs, one of his hands on your hips, while the other gripped Evan’s dick harshly, who was holding the knife in his left hand. He entered you with one violent thrust, your back arching as a moan escaped your lips.
“You sound so hot, baby, going to mark you up” The blonde guy was trying to focus on the movements of the knife, the sting from the cutting only enhancing your pleasure.
“Always so tight f’me, fucking hell I’m about to come” Barty moaned, pistoning his hips against yours, one of his hands on your neck, squeezing.  You already felt on the verge of another orgasm, crying out.
“Let go for us, baby, come on my dick like a good girl, you’re so beautiful.” He kissed you hungrily, his teeth nipping at your lower lip, blood spilling in his own mouth. “I fucking love you” You came, screaming, as your boyfriends followed you, Evan painting your belly with his seed.
“Look at that, darling, now you’re ours” You trained your gaze on your belly. Right next to a spurt of come, there were a B and an E carved on your skin.
“I want a fucking picture”
You fell down on the bed, utterly consumed but finally happy.

rosekiller & their 'platonic' girlfriend
rosekiller x 'platonic' girlfriend!reader when they find out it's not exactly platonic
CW: Evan & Barty threaten someone's life, Barty says he's in love and will die a lot
A/N: ........ I'm finally trying Evan out guysssss 😮‍💨🫣, prompt based off of this post and this post
click here for part two
Tumblr media
“Wow.” Sirius called as he looked you up and down salaciously in a way you knew was solely for the purpose of riling Barty up. “I almost didn’t recognise you without your third, L/N.” 
You were wholly incapable of biting back a scoff and an eye roll as you used your arm to stop Barty from approaching the troublesome Black. “I am the third, Black.” 
And of course where there was Sirius Black, one could be certain that James Potter wasn’t far behind him. “Not with the way you walk those two like dogs.” He called as he sidled up beside Sirius with a cocky grin. 
“It’s not like that- Salazar’s saggy balls, why am I explaining myself to you rotten dugbogs?” You grumbled as you grabbed Barty by the arm and continued the way you had been going before the interruption. 
“It could be like that you know?” Barty flirted, earning him a smack in the arm. 
“Sod off.”
You had found friendship in Barty and Evan after the two of them had already started dating.
Were they flirty with you? Sure.
Did the three of you spend a lot of time together? Yes.
Did you have some…fun from time to time? Absolutely. 
But you weren’t together; at least not in the way that everyone seemed to suggest. 
“Where are we going now?” Barty asked happily as he allowed you to guide him through the castle.
“We’re looking for your boyfriend; he promised to lend me that book he was telling me about.”
Barty barely had time to make a hum of acknowledgment before the two of you turned a corner to the sight of Evan Rosier.
Evan Rosier….who was currently holding a poor Ravenclaw bloke up against the wall by the collar of his uniform shirt. 
“Oh yay! We’re fighting!” Barty called happily as he all but skipped towards his boyfriend. 
“Rosier! What are you doing!?” You hissed as you tried to catch up to Barty’s longer strides. 
“Yeah Rosey! Why are we killing Fenwick today!?” Barty asked enthusiastically. 
You watched as Evan’s jaw twitched before he answered. “Heard him talking about shagging L/N at the Hufflepuff party tonight.”
Barty made an understanding hum as if saying ‘fair enough’ which you did not understand nor find ‘fair enough’ at all, whilst poor Fenwick seemed to swallow nervously. 
“So what?” You asked then, causing all three boys to look at you bemusedly. 
“What do you mean so what!?” Barty asked you incredulously.
“Well…” You started, really not understanding what the sodding hang up here was. “We’re not together?” You stated in the form of a question as you gestured between you, Evan, and Barty.
Evan stood there staring at you with furrowed brows for approximately half a minute (still with Fenwick pinned against the wall, mind you) before a brief look of understanding crossed his face. 
“Circe’s fucking tits.” He breathed out disbelievingly before turning to look at Barty “We’re in love with her.” 
A confused sound was caught in your throat as Barty threw his hands up in exasperation. “That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you lot, but no one ever listens to Barty!” 
“Last week you fucking told me you were in love with inventor of bellbottom jeans, Junior, how the hells am I supposed to know when you actually mean it?” Evan hissed back at him.
“I literally told you that I would die if anything ever happened to Treasure, how in the fuck is that platonic?!”
“You told me you were going to die when Laurie and Jo didn’t end up together!” Evan shouted back. 
Barty’s face turned severe as he leveled Evan with a look. “How dare you bring that up right now; you know I’m still grieving.”
“For the love of Merlin- Rosier! Put Fenwick down.” You barked at him, surprising both boys from their argument and alerting them to the fact that they were still holding their classmate hostage.
Evan turned back towards the bloke and muttered a threatening “Stay the fuck away from her, got it?” as Fenwick nodded quickly and all but sprinted the opposite way down the hall once Evan finally released his grip. 
Barty let out a pleased breath as he clapped his hands together excitedly. “Well! What do we do now?”
Evan stalked over and grabbed your hand, surprising you with the tenderness of the touch coming from someone who still looked so murderous.
He slowly bent down and pressed a chaste kiss to your forehead before he was leading you by the hand towards the Great Hall.
“We’re going to go and make sure the rest of the sodding school knows she’s ours too.” 
You felt your cheeks heat up not entirely unpleasantly as you listened to the sound of Barty cackle happily from where he was trailing behind you.

Sometimes I imagine James meeting the rest of the Skittles for the first time and Barty is in Evan’s lap and Evan’s arm is around his waist but no one’s commenting on it or even side-eyeing them, and they’re all acting like this is completely, utterly, one hundred percent normal. And James is fully confused because he didn’t think that they were dating or anything so why are they doing that?

Regulus: That’s Barty in his Animagus form, isn’t he?

Obsessed with the idea of Slytherin Skittles true crime podcast that is just them reading over real crimes and pointing out each of the criminal’s mistakes.
once, someone repeatedly sent them hate comments saying they could never do better causing Batshit Barty and the gang to go “Bet”
A week later, A newly freed child abuser who didn’t serve his time was found dead with the exact same MO they said in the latest episode of the podcast with none of the mistakes they pointed out. No one could prove they did it yet everyone knew.
The podcast continued as usual.

people love to talk behind barty's back. of course they do, he's loud, arrogant, noisy, doesn't listen to classes and still gets the highest marks. one day when evan who doesn't give a fuck about anything, quiet, unpredictable but unproblematic is passing by and hears them so he casually leans into the table like nothing happened. speaks with the most normal voice you can imagine "this is the last time you'll be talking about him." then he just leaves and they understand.

we should all start treating evan rosier like a lab rat. we should hurt him, starve him, dissect him, amputate some part of his body and use him to the limits of the impossible. then kill him and call it an unsuccessful experiment.

request for a fic where reader is absolutely spoiled by her boys? (can be absolutely any pairing you like poly!marauders x reader, wolfstar, poly!moonwater x reader, Bartylus x reader…..literally anything)
the boys love to spoil her with gifts, breakfast in bed, shopping trips, outings etc, (not necessarily expensive, just doting), even if one of the boys is less inclined they're along for the ride, and perhaps somewhat exasperated by all the antics
…can you tell my love language is gift giving and receiving?
feel free to add more plot because the prompt is quite broad? but do whatever you want my love!
I trust you with my life <3
*tip-toes in* hiii there *side steps through the door* hellooo.... *awkwardly places this fic in front of you from your request back in March* thanks so much for your request (and patienceeee) - no but in all reality, I knew from the second I got this request that it had to be these two - I hope I did it justice!! xx
poly!rosekiller x fem!reader who they love to spoil [743 words]
CW: extravagant & expensive gift giving as a love language, reader tries to be mad at them about it (she fails, though)
“Not so fast!” You said instead of hello, fighting the snicker that threatened to undermine your severity as you watched Barty and Evan stop in their tracks like they’d been frozen on the spot. “What do you think you’re doing?”
The two boys shared a sideways glance before Evan slowly relaxed his stance. “Well-”
“You’re going to have to be more specific, Treasure.” Barty interrupted swiftly, giving off an air of faux nonchalance as he placed the shopping bags he had in his hands on the side of the bed and pressing a kiss to the side of your head. “What are we doing for dinner tonight? What are we doing about climate change? What are we doing with our lives? It’s too broad a question.” 
“Barty.” You scolded him. 
“Y/N.” He replied.
“Evan.” You tried instead.
“Yes, sugar?” He responded salaciously.
You closed your eyes and heaved a breath; they made it so difficult to be mad at them. “What did you two buy?”
Evan’s face spread into a cheshire cat smile. “Funny you should ask, darling.” And with a flourish, he and Barty unceremoniously dumped the bags out onto the bed leaving it covered in a menagerie of clothes, bags, perfumes, and what appeared to be boxes of jewellery. 
“But why?” You beseeched anxiously instead of saying thank you; feeling your face flush at the very loud and very expensive expression of appreciation now littering your bed. 
“Uhm, because we love you?” Barty answered as if that was somehow a trick question and he couldn’t believe it was actually that easy to answer.
“This is too much.” You responded.
“Says who?” Evan queried.
“Me.”
Barty snorted. “How’s it feel to be wrong, then?”
“Barty.”
“I don’t understand what the problem is!” He continued, raising his hands helplessly. “We have a lot of money, we have great taste, and we have you; ergo…” He said, finishing his statement by gesturing vaguely at the pile of gifts they’d purchased. 
“Great taste indeed.” Evan agreed as he held a dress up against you. “This colour looks great on you.”
“Ev, there is hardly any fabric on this dress.” You argued, causing his face to pinch in thought.
“Hm, you’re right. Okay, we can return that one if you don’t like it.” He said before shoving the dress back into one of the various bags. 
You let your eyes trace the rest of the garments littering your bed wondering if you might be able to convince them to return the rest of it too.
“No, we cannot return it all. Don’t be rude, babydoll.” Evan reprimanded, pressing a kiss to the crown of your head and chidingly patting you on the arse.
“Do you like this one, Tres? I picked it because I thought it’d bring out your eyes.” Barty asked then, holding up an outfit with no shortage of excitement in his eyes that finally forced a smile from you. 
“It’s very nice, Bee; thank you.” You relented, running your fingers along the fabric up to the price tag, only to have it yanked from your grasp before you could see how much it cost.
“Perfect.” He said quickly, pulling the tag from the garment and shoving it into his pocket. “You can wear this one tonight; we have reservations at the new restaurant downtown at 8:30!”
Silence returned to the room once they both left and you let out a slow breath, shaking your head in fondness as you looked at the many gifts they’d splurged on for you. 
There wasn’t even any reason, which always somehow made it feel that much more special; they didn’t go out shopping because it was your birthday or a holiday; they simply went shopping because they were thinking of you, saw things you might like, and bought it just because they could. 
You were a lucky girl, and you’d go so far as to call yourself spoiled, which you were sure was exactly what Evan and Barty wanted you to be even if you made it quite difficult to do so. 
“Oh, and if you do wear that outfit Barty picked out tonight,” Evan added, sticking his head in the doorway, “there’s a matching Hermés bag to go with it, too.”
He didn’t even have a chance to see your mouth open in shock or hear your horrified “Evan!” before he was shutting the door behind him and taking off down the hall.
Spoiled indeed.

ok, but hear me out:
Evan Rosier who didn’t believe in love
Evan Rosier who came from a powerful family and therefore had to act accordingly
Evan Rosier who suppressed his passions for dead things
Evan Rosier who hid everything that made him ‘weird’ to seem ‘normal’
Evan Rosier who slowly died inside every time he had to pretend to be someone he wasn’t
Evan Rosier who, despite being one of the ‘popular kids’ hated everyone and himself most of all
Evan Rosier who didn’t believe that anybody would ever love him for who he truly was
Evan Rosier who couldn’t love himself
Evan Rosier whose world was shaken when he met a boy who seemed just as unstable as him
Evan Rosier who pretended to hate that boy because it’s what people expected from the Heir of the Rosier House
Evan Rosier who found himself slowly falling for this wild ‘freak’
Evan Rosier who, during a party, drunk out of his mind, kissed that outcast, that boy who he’d been dreaming about for years
Evan Rosier who was kissed back by avid lips who’d desired him since day one
Evan Rosier who felt something for the first time in his life
Evan Rosier who only showed his true colors to his feral lover
Evan Rosier who slowly learned how to love both himself and others
Evan Rosier who died with Barty’s name on his lips
“I promised you I’d be here when you got out of that wretched prison. I promised that as long as you lived, I’d never give up on you. Looks like I can’t keep promises that well. Sorry I didn’t say goodbye. I fought, but not hard enough, apparently. I’ll see you on the other side. I love you, Barty.”

| June 2nd | Prompt: Die | Word count: 452 | @rosekillermicrofic |
-
“Evan?” Barty’s voice was hesitant, serious in a way that was rare for him. It was his tone that got Evan to look up from his schoolwork.
“Yeah?”
“I love you,” Barty said.
Evan froze.
Then he stared at the boy across from him, trying to make sense of what had just happened.
But the thing was, it didn’t make sense, those words coming from Barty’s mouth as Evan sat in his bed, meters away from where Barty was sprawled out on his own blankets.
“You—you do?”
As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Evan wanted to kick himself for the hopeful way in which he had asked the question.
However, he was distracted from the desire as Barty sat up straight, seemingly eager to prove his point.
“Yeah. Yeah, I do. You’re my closest friend.”
And it was from the way Barty said “friend” that Evan instantly knew that he had hoped for too much.
Barty had meant a platonic kind of love.
Of course.
Evan looked back down at his papers, unable to keep looking at Barty as he continued, “I don’t know what I would do without your friendship. And I just thought you should know.”
Evan appreciated the sentiment. Really, he did. He loved being a part of Barty’s life, and even if he did wish it was as more than a friend, he would rather know Barty and be in love with him from the sidelines than not know him at all.
“Thank you,” Evan said.
It was a weak response. Too weak, judging from the way Barty’s posture slumped slightly. But seconds later, he straightened back up, Evan’s mediocre response only seeming to renew his desire to prove the truth of his words from earlier
The weight of Barty’s gaze burned into Evan as he said, “You’re my ride-or-die, Evs.”
They were lovely, wonderful words, but Evan couldn’t stop a corner of his mouth from pulling down. He tried to stop it, he really did, but his emotions couldn’t seem to keep from showing on his face. The only saving grace was that the side of his mouth turned down in a frown was the side away from Barty, meaning that he couldn’t see it.
What he could almost definitely see, however, was Evan’s reluctance to say anything.
“I mean it,” Barty insisted after several seconds of no response from Evan.
And now Evan had to say something.
So, trying to keep the bitterness out of his tone, Evan mumbled back, “Of course, Bee.”
Then, making up some story about a headache, he excused himself from the conversation and closed the curtains around his bed.
He really didn’t want to think about any of it.

Regulus: James is just the worst. He thinks he’s so smart and so attractive. He makes me feel good about the world and my place in it.
Evan: Barty, he’s doing it again!
