horst cabal from johannes cabal the necromancer

Horst, wearing one of those mistletoe-dangle-headbands, waggles his eyebrows.

"Tis' the season?"

Silver’s nose scrunches like he’s considering a divorce (for all that they aren’t, technically, married—do either of them even exist on paper anymore?) but his eyes smile. “‘Tis the season,” he confirms solemnly, and reaches up to grip the back of Horst’s neck gently, pulling him down for a long-overdue kiss.

good morning, for the kink/spicy meme, talk about Silver and Horst? I have no specific asks, or rather, I have multiple 👀 (pain during sex?what position is your muse's favorite? Why? how do they go about initiating sexy play? does your muse have any taboo kinks?what is your muse's favorite form of foreplay?) feel free to ignore any you don't wish to answer <3

GOD. I'VE MISSED THEM. ok let's see. good luck figuring out if i'm referring to alters or timeline shit here (the answer is both)

does your muse enjoy pain during sex?

HEAVILY contextual. he likes an ache more than a sting, being held down tight enough to hurt more than actively being hurt. long john in particular DOES like pain during sex (especially being slapped/spanked), but it's up for debate whether it's actually like... good for him to receive it or not, especially in later verses. again, very contextual. overall he's okay with horst giving him a little bit of pain (especially bites. oops), but with anyone else it would usually be a hard no.

what position is your muse's favorite? why?

with horst in particular it's missionary baby!! how else are they supposed to gaze lovingly into each other's eyes, and also carry semi-casual conversations until silver finally stops being able to string words together. he does, however, also REALLY like any position involving horst on his knees.

if i remember right (bearing in mind i barely remember 2018-2022 anymore) i think silver also doesn't usually like any position where he can't easily see his partner, but silver-who-is-not-silver in particular loves being able to trust horst enough to be completely fine with it. as long as horst is touching him he's all good.

how do they go about initiating sexy play?

oh that one's easy. literally all he has to do is vaguely imply that he's bored SDKFJNSDFJK--but also i think actually polorus era he is just FOREVER baiting horst into chasing him around until whoopsie-daisies wow how did we get into the bedroom? oh well when in rome :)

does your muse have any taboo kinks?

this is tumblr dot com, the website of no reading comprehension or critical thought. if your muse has taboo kinks it means you're personally not only into the same ones, but you also advocate for the non-kink equivalent of them. silver has never had a single non-pure thought in his life.

no but actually i don't really think he has any that i can think of (or that i would really consider "taboo"). at most there's maybe something to be said for the fact that sometimes he is mentally stuck in time and may regress/feel/behave as if he's younger (whether it's an alter or not), and that can bleed into the bedroom. but i don't think that's really a kink of his so much as just "a thing that happens, and he happens to enjoy being taken care of when it does [if he's not freaking the fuck out about it]".

also like, it's the 1700s so his knowledge of kinks is mostly limited to "shit he saw straight men get up to or talk about in the brothels his mother worked in".

what is your muse's favorite form of foreplay?

KISSING. but also just gentle caressing/being all wrapped up in one another. he MUST be touching horst with his entire body at all times actually.

Players of Team Germany and Horst Hrubesch, Head Coach of Team Germany celebrate victory after the Women's Bronze Medal match between Spain and Germany during the Olympic Games Paris 2024 at Stade de Lyon on August 09, 2024 in Lyon, France.

The veteran coach will depart his role as head coach after Paris 2024 – and his players are eager to clinch the bronze medal in his final game in charge. [...] When asked if he expects his team to want to send him off with a bronze medal, he responded in typical Horst Hrubesch fashion: “I’m not too bothered about medals. Besides, I already have one [silver in Rio 2016 with the men’s team]. All I care about now is that the girls who don’t yet have a medal get one.”

7) for sender to playfully bite receiver’s neck while hugging them from behind (for Silver from Horst shhhhh i stole the meme from your other blog)

Long John Silver laughs, and for once there's no falsehood in it. He trusts Horst enough not to worry too much when he's off-balance; trusts the strong arms around his waist, that they're there to hold and not to trap. And the teeth at his neck--he can't remember what it was like to be afraid of them, if he ever was.

(But he must have been, mustn't he? He must have been afraid before. He just doesn't remember--

No, there it is--he does remember. A long time ago he'd been very afraid indeed; even at his most comfortable with Horst and his nature, he'd always had one foot out of the door.

Best not to think about that, part of him murmurs.)

"My good man," he says fondly, swaying into Horst's arms and tilting his neck up to him, "I am trying to cook here. Is this your idea of helping?"

[Horst could be in literal Hell and will still just try to have a good time and make the best of the situation.

does he know i'm in love with him

-- silver, probably
