"Bring Me To My Knees" PART 2
Crosshair/Hunter x Reader Non Gendered SMUT++
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Dividers by the talented: @saradika and @4ngelic-wh1spers
Background: Reader and Crosshair are separated from the group during the rescue of Omega and Tech from Mt Tantiss. Two broken people trying to get by in the galaxy. Then two broken people finally dealing with what happened to their group.
Word Count: 2.3K
Warning: Star Wars Canon violence, angst, death of major character, sadness, crying, guilt, permanent injury, stuff blowing up, swearing, kissing, intercourse, heavy petting, bite kind, blood kink, pain kink, spank kink, smutty/lemony content, lovers triangle with Hunter and Crosshair.
FOR CLARITY, HUNTER FLASHBACK SMUT SCENE IN CHAPTER 1. THE CROSSHAIR SMUT SCENE IS IN THIS CHAPTER 2. Broke this up in 2 chapters because I just couldn't stop writing...and 4K might be too much for one sitting.
I purposely wrote the reader in this fic to be of no specific gender. Tried to carefully craft the sexual scenes to accommodate either gender/non gendered/trans/genderfluid/non-binary. Everyone has hills, valleys, sexual organs, nipples, and erogenous zones. I wrote them into the story, but it's up to you dear reader to put your imagination to work. Hope I have done a good enough job that you can enjoy yourself with Hunter and Crosshair without breaking immersion!
To read Chapter 1:

Tumblr media
The intel proved to be correct. You and Crosshair traveled to an uncharted planet well past the Outer Rim. A quiet unassuming place to start planning a burgeoning Rebellion. 
He piloted. As your ship entered planetary airspace several Rebel ships swooped in as escorts. The Rebel base radioed in to confirm your status. 
“Crosshair, Clone Force 99 and Y/N, civilian. We are Rebel sympathizers wanting to join the Rebel cause and find our lost family and squad members.” You replied. 
“Authenticating data. Hold your position.” 
Silence as you and Crosshair waited on bated breath. 
“You are clear to land. We will perform a customary inspection of your transport. Then check your gunnery and weapons at the docking station armory.” 
“They’ll be taking my rifle OVER my DEAD body.” Crosshair snarked. 
“Toothpick?” 
“Hhm?” 
“It’s your gun, NOT your dick. Let them do their job.” 
He sighed and shook his head. 
Tumblr media
Word must have spread fast. No sooner did you land than Omega was out the bay door jumping up and down in excitement. 
Crosshair barely got the gangplank down on the ship. You jumped over the stairs and landed on your hands and knees. Sprung up and ran to her. 
Omega knocked you over with her embrace. You were both laying there crying. She had grown two heads taller and much stronger too. 
Rebel soldiers had come out to check the validity of your claims. They stood aside seeing at least one of their residents recognize you. They had witnessed MANY reunions just like this as people were finding their way to the planet.  
There was more: Wrecker wasn’t far behind. He scooped you both up and hugged you fiercely. 
“AWWW...SO GLAD YOU’RE HERE! MISSED YA HORRIBLY!!!” Wiping away tears. 
Echo approached with Phee. 
Wrecker let you go, and you embraced them both with each arm. 
“Phee...what happened???” Her beautiful hair was gone. Head covered and tied fashionably with a scarf. Burn scar down one side of her face. You noticed one hand had scars as well. 
She shot Echo a strange look, then shrugged and perked up. “It’s growing back. Getting bacta therapy for the scars.” 
“Tech? Hunter? Are they here?” 
Echo answered “Come inside. We’ll get you settled.” 
“Wait, I didn’t come alone.” 
You turned towards your ship. Crosshair was standing at the bottom of the stairs. 
Omega gave him a bear hug. He had allowed her that. Wrecker stood a few feet away watching them.  
Echo took your hand. “Let’s give them some time to catch up.” 
He and Phee led you inside the base past bustling personnel.  
“Wait...I didn’t check my blaster...” 
“That’s ok” Phee patted your shoulder. “We vouched for you. Crosshair though...” 
You approached an open medical station with bacta tanks lined up...recognizing... 
“TECH!” 
He bobbed merrily in the solution, waving at your arrival. 
You stopped to see he was missing both legs...just like Echo. There were scars all over his body, some weren’t present during his rescue. Tech saw your face and immediately started signing in Basic. 
It is no major loss. I will be fine. Only 20 more rotations within this tank, then I shall be fitted for my prosthetics...please...don’t cry. 
Things were starting to come together...Phee’s hair loss and burns...the Marauder being hit... 
“WHERE’S HUNTER???” You yelled it in a panic. 
Echo stepped in and took your hand. “Y/N... he...” The look on his face told you this wouldn’t be good news. Echo’s eyes registered the scarf draped around your neck. 
There was a commotion behind you at the entrance of the base. Crosshair’s voice. Arguing with two Rebel troopers over his lack of compliance regarding check-in. 
“Sir! We need you to...” 
“NOT NOW! Can’t you see MY PARTNER is in distress!!!” 
The trooper grabbed his arm. Crosshair immediately disarmed the man and put his ass on the floor. Then handed the troopers gun to HIS partner sneering, “I said FUCK OFF!” 
The second trooper took the gun and commed for backup. 
Crosshair stalked over gently putting his hands on your shoulders. Fixing Echo with his baleful stare. “Where’s Hunter?” 
Echo fixed you both with his amber eyes. He sighed; his expression was so sad. “I’ll take you to him.” 
Tech tapped on the tank to get Crosshair’s attention. Cross glanced over shocked. He hadn’t recognized who was in there. Then he noticed Tech’s condition. 
I’ll be ok brother. He signed.  
Tech put his hand up against the glass. Crosshair placed his on the other side against Tech’s. 
The trooper’s backup arrived and trained their blasters on Crosshair. He turned and eyed them menacingly. Then dropped his hands from your shoulders, one of which you grabbed. 
“Don’t start any shit, Toothpick. Please, this isn’t the time.” Squeezing his hand firmly. 
He squeezed your hand back and stood down. 
“Break it up Trooper. These are friendlies.” Captain Rex emerged from the back of the squad. 
“But sir, he assaulted one of our Rebel staff. And he refused to check his rifle.” Pointing to Stormpuncher mounted on Crosshair’s back. 
“I’ll handle it, Trooper. You are all dismissed.” 
The Rebel squad eyed Crosshair uneasily as they filed away from the scene. 
“Good to see you both alive and well.” Rex smiled genuinely. “But I’ll let Echo catch you up on everything.” He nodded to Echo and stepped away. 
At this point Wrecker and Omega joined the group. 
“Follow me.” Echo instructed. 
You glanced at Tech as the group started to walk away. He smiled wistfully.  
“I got them Brown Eyes.” She winked at Tech, and he winked back. But he still looked concerned. 
Phee put her arm around your shoulder and walked with you. Crosshair followed at your other side silently. 
The group filed through the whole facility: past logistics, maintenance, troop training, mess, quarters, a small prison area (mostly empty), daycare, pet kennel, a few non-descript departments, and finally to the back end of the facility. The group approached heavy double doors. 
There was a sense of dread in your chest. Everyone was quiet. Echo looked heartbroken as he swiped his key card over the lock mechanism.  
The doors opened to the outside. A HUGE garden stretching for over a mile...planted with the bodies of those fallen from the Empire. Headstones, holoshrines, helmets, and all manner of tributes marked each plot. Adults, children, military, civilians, even service animals. Droids who could not be repaired were erected as tribute statuary with holoplaques proclaiming their sacrifice. 
Hunter was there. Laid to rest several rows down from the entrance. 
The realization hit you like a ton of bricks. 
“This isn’t real...” Shaking your head but staring straight ahead at Hunter’s helmet propped up on his plot. “NO... can’t.” Tears running down your face. 
Phee rubbed your back. “I’m SO sorry.” She was crying too. “Broody saved my life. I almost burned to death.” She pulled off the scarf to reveal the severity of her injuries. “I’m the reason he’s here.” 
Wrecker piped up “Noo, that’s not true. He would’ve done it for anyone on that ship.” He hugged Phee. 
Survivor’s guilt. Your heart went out to her.    
Crosshair took your hand and silently encouraged you to step down into the memorial and go to Hunter’s plot. You inhaled and stepped down...then your legs gave out. Crosshair grabbed your right shoulder. Echo ran over and supported your left. 
They led you to the plot. Wrecker, Phee, and Omega stayed behind. 
Soft grass was planted for whomever wished to sit and visit. Hunter’s helmet was surrounded by vivid red Poppies in full bloom. Echo seated you upon the grass. Crosshair kneeling beside you.  
“Can I do anything at all for you both.” He inquired. 
Silence. 
“Uh...I’ll give you some privacy.” 
“Echo?” 
“Yeah?” 
You swept him up in a hug again. “Thank you...for everything.” Tears returning. 
“Oh, of course.” He embraced you back. Holding on for some time. 
Echo patted your back and cleared his throat. He let go and wiped a tear from his face. 
Then he was gone.   
Crosshair sat stone faced staring at Hunter’s helmet bereft of emotion. It was the best he could do at this moment. 
You took off the red scarf, slipped it over Hunter’s helmet, and arranged it as if draped off Hunter’s own shoulders. 
Like he was sitting right in front of you with his bucket on... 
A sudden loud sob escaped. Each exhalation became louder until it ended in a scream. Your face red and pressed into the warm grass. Watering Hunter’s grave with your tears. Freeing the emotion out of the pit of your being. Screaming, sobbing until empty, finally collapsing from exhaustion. 
The afternoon progressed and the sun started to dip down towards the horizon. 
“Hey” Crosshair nudged you from disassociation. “Let’s go.” 
Numb, you let him haul you up under the shoulders. Standing, your vision went snowy and black.   
Tumblr media
Crosshair must have carried you to the ship. The next few days were a blur, you slept through most of it. He hovered, fixing ration soup and just about threatening to force feed you. Trading whatever he could for black market sweets just to get ANYTHING into your belly. You barely remember Echo, Wrecker, Omega, or Phee visiting. Or AZI monitoring your vitals, reporting them well within range, that it was “only” grief and would eventually pass. 
Finally, after days in your bunk Crosshair had enough. 
“Soup!” He poked you awake. 
“Whaa?” Weakly turning over, burrowing under the blanket. 
“Get up. You STINK!” 
“Fuck off Crossy...” 
“Get up, or I’m throwing you INTO the refresher. Clothes and all.” 
You ignored him. 
Crosshair reached under the blanket and yanked you up. You caterwauled hurling swears, too weak to fight. But you were strong enough to hold on. 
He opened the refresher door and attempted to set you down. You stuck to him like shit on a Bantha’s behind. It turned into a wrestling match, both of you swearing at one another. One hand pried off him, then another would latch on, finally tearing his shirt to shreds. 
Cross gave up and flipped on the water soaking you both. The cold spray only made you hold on tighter, pressing against his chest for warmth. He gave up, sighed, adjusted the temp to warm. 
“Will you wash my hair?” 
Sighing again. “Yes.” 
You let go and turned your back to him. Crosshair lathered up his hands. 
“Wait.” You pulled the soaked T-shirt over your head and threw it in the corner of the shower. Now you're only clad in underwear. “Ok.” 
He applied the shampoo and did one helluva job massaging it into your hair. You smiled and groaned at the sensation. He finished by twisting the hair into a soapy point atop your head. 
“Will you wash my back and neck?” 
Heavy sigh. But he did. His hands were amazing. 
“Toothpick, will...” 
“I’m NOT washing your dirty ass...or anything else. You can reach.” Cross rinsed his hands and exited the refresher, leaving you to finish the job. 
Tumblr media
You finally exited the shower feeling and smelling much better. 
Clean towels and comfy clothing were waiting for you. A non-descript box sat atop them.  
Dried, dressed, brushed your hair and nasty teeth. Then opened the box. The beautiful black and silver scarf from Mel and Marv’s stand. Toothpick paid attention...and had held on to it the whole time. 
You put it on and made your way back through the darkened ship. 
Crosshair was waiting, sitting on a blanket spread out on the floor. There was a multitude of fresh food and rations upon it. Also, a lit candle in the middle. The kind he would razz you about that “smelled like flowers and shit.” 
You smiled. “Is this a date?” Attempting some levity. 
“Sit your ass down and eat.” 
“Thank you.” Caressing the scarf around your neck. 
“For what?” He played dumb. You could see he noticed. 
“Everything. Being there for...” You couldn’t bear to speak it. “Taking care of me, this food...” 
“Can’t have you dying on me. Would have smelled worse than you already did.” 
“Oh...and that shower brawl...” looking up from your food. “THAT was certainly SOMETHING.” 
Crosshair grinned. “You owe me a new shirt.” 
“Do I, now? Well, don’t wear clothes in the refresher when you decide to throw me in.” 
He cocked an eyebrow while biting into a ration bar. 
“Then when I grab something, it’ll be foreplay.” 
Crosshair choked on his food. 
Tumblr media
You stuffed yourself full. Satisfied, thanking Crosshair again (who rolled his eyes), and wandered back to your bunk. 
He had changed the bedding out while you were in the refresher. It was clean and the blanket turned over, inviting you to slide in. 
It felt wonderful burrowing into the clean sheets. 
But sleep was elusive tonight. 
The grief was still too much for you both. 
Two people alone on a dark, silent ship. The distance between you palpable. 
“Are...you awake?” he furtively asked with hushed tones in the dark. 
“Umhmm.” Intrigued as to why he asked. Sitting up and sliding your legs off to the side of the bunk. 
Silence. 
You sat there in the dark waiting for an answer. 
More silence... 
youtube
(You like a song to go with the following scene? Please check it out. Smutty, but emotional)
...then Crosshairs hand gently smoothing away the hair from your temple. 
You immediately embraced him tightly. 
He falters for just a beat.  Body frozen for what seems like an eternity.  Would this scare him away? 
Then you feel his arms encircle you, lips upon your cheek...kissing down to your lips. 
Unable to hold back any further, you turn your head to meet his lips to yours. 
Mouths opening to breathe into the well of one another.  Sliding upon each other passionately.  Breaths furiously taken in between long heated kisses. 
Then parting quickly to pull the clothing from each other's body.  Almost ripping the cloth away from bare skin.  Occasional moans of longing for skin-to-skin contact. 
Finally free of constraints, he stops to visually take you in... 
...he’s waited SO LONG for this moment. Couldn’t help admiring your strength while rescuing him on Tantiss...but finding out you bonded romantically to Hunter... 
“I... I’m afraid...” Terror and shame on his face. 
This shocks you to hear such words fall from his lips. He’s so VULNERABLE...kneeling next to you proclaiming his feelings. 
You reach out and stroke the side of his face, then firmly grip this chin. “So am I. But it’s just the two of us now.” 
You both stare into the lonely abyss of each other's eyes. 
“And I CAN’T STAND being alone.” 
“Then you WON’T be...EVER” He reaches out across the space between, pulling you to his body. His heat, his need. 
You have your own need, your heat blazes HOT with his deep kisses. Tongues intertwining.  
Then he pulls away to bury his face next to your ear whispering EVERY DIRTY THING he’s going to do to you while nuzzling and nipping your ear. Rubbing his hard cock along your shin, sliding along the wetness it leaves behind. 
You moan loudly...” Oh...fuck me...” 
“Mhmm...” trailing his tongue down your neck. His hands caressing the inside of your thighs. Stopping just short of your sex. Teasing his fingers around it...teasing you into fever pitch. 
Your hand on his shoulder digs your nails into his flesh. He moans in ecstasy from the pain. Trailing down your chest to nip and lick at your nipples. Crosshair stares up adoringly with half hooded eyes. 
His hand casually brushes your sex and trails away. 
Smiling while he teases. 
You grip the edge of the bunk, bracing your feet on the floor, and buck out your hips in the air, gasping, baring your teeth. 
Then he playfully but firmly slaps your sex. 
It pisses you off while turning you on at the same time. The tension building. 
His cock is SO slippery against your leg. The breath coming from him labored and shaky. Tracing your thighs just so closely to where you want to be stimulated, then away again. 
“FUCK ME!” You growl deeply through your teeth.  Something FERAL awakening in you. Shaking, sweating, digging harder into his shoulder. It starts to bleed, and his eyes roll back in his head.  
His facial expression turns intense. He slaps your sex again. You moan louder, then growl again.��
The teasing. It’s driving you INSANE. 
He knows you’re about to lose it... 
Crosshair stops kissing your chest, put’s his snarky, sexy, come-fuck-me-face up to your ear...  
“...Mmm...bite me...” 
Back somewhere in your sexually addled lizard brain registers this could be literal instead of figurative. 
And he slaps you...ONE MORE TIME... 
Without thinking you sink your teeth into his other shoulder. Blood seeping into your mouth. 
Crosshair screams out in fevered sexual ecstasy...frotting his weeping cock furiously against your leg. 
His slapping hand comes back fully on your sex, furiously stimulating... 
...kneading... 
...filling up your intimate spaces... 
...sliding.... 
...you buck your hips tightly against the hand that services you... 
...as the pressure of your molars squeeze the flesh of his shoulder...it’s heavenly pressure...the taste of copper as you suck it down... 
Crosshair’s fevered thrusts of his hips. 
The fevered ministrations of his hand. 
Ragged breaths mixed with groans...whimpers... 
You release your mouth from his shoulder, as you gasp for air... blood trailing down his back from the punctures. Small crimson rivulets running down your chin, neck, across your erect nipples...you fall back...Pressing your head into the bunk...eyes widening...mouth open. His left hand on the small of your back like a spotter, his right sending you over the edge... 
Clenching your abdomen...you feel that tickle...the beginning of... 
Crosshair stops and pulls his hand away. You grab his arm devastated, angry even to be thwarted from your orgasm. 
Breathlessly “I want to FEEL you...from the INSIDE.” It’s not presented as a question. But he’s waiting for your consent. 
You reach down, stroke his sopping wet member. He moans and shudders. Then brush a ghost of a kiss across Crosshair’s forehead as you scoot fully onto the bunk and open yourself up to him. Your seductive gaze is inviting. 
Up off his knees, he slinks over you on the bunk. Staring like a hungry animal.  
For a fleeting moment, you don’t see Crosshair there...just Hunter. Your desire threatens to topple over into grief...all these emotions bubbling up from the surface. That scar will NEVER be totally healed. The sadness that will NEVER totally leave. 
Crosshair watches the subtle changes of your expression and senses this. He understands. While there are differences, it’s his loss too. 
He covers his body with yours, basking in the warmth skin to skin. Then takes your face in his hands. Touching foreheads, he whispers promises for you both in the future. All the things you will do together and the burdens you will both share and support each other through. Every one of them ends with a kiss as a promise.  
“I’m not Hunter...but...I’ll work on being a better man than I was in my past.”  
“I don’t want you to live in Hunter’s shadow. You’re different. Our relationship will be different.” 
Silence. 
“I’m SO SORRY you lost your brother.” 
Crosshair covers his face with his hand. Silent tears spill out between his fingers. 
You say no more and hold him tightly. Knowing it was A LOT for him to even let go like this. Knowing the relationship, he had with especially Hunter was fraught with so much emotional angst. And the heavy burden Crosshair holds about the horrible things he did at the end. 
You both lay there for some time wrapped up together in each other's arms...just being. Crosshair’s head resting on your chest, listening to your heartbeat. You rubbing gentle circles though his hair. 
Finally, he speaks, “Would you like me to finish?” Looking up at you seriously with those intense dark eyes. 
You read him like a book. He knows you too well now. There’s a deep care for one another. But you both know the sex tonight will be for dealing with the grief. That's ok though. It’s an unspoken agreement of how this will help the two of you bond and heal.  
You’ll both drink, fight, fuck, laugh, and all manner of things together while dealing with this shared grief. Whatever gets you by. It’ll bind you both thick as thieves. 
“Yes.” 
He kisses down your body to your sex. Licking, sucking, lavishing you with an intensity that prevents you from lying still. All the while grinding his returned erection into the sheets, soaking them. 
You both begin to get vocal. He adds more stimulation with his fingers, driving you wild. Grasping the bedding, you arch your back again. With the pressure in your core, his tongue wetly sliding over your sex...your breathing reaches a fever pitch...the tingling returns... 
“Crosshair...” 
He stops, sits up, gently pulls your hips to position, and slides his length into you. 
“Fuuuck...” he groans loudly, slowly pulling out, then slowly sliding in...he wants to feel it ALL. No rush. Just the amazing sensation...every inch...of him...against you... 
...sliding out... 
...sliding in... 
His legs are shaking. 
Your breath not just respirations but moans to the timing of his thrusts. 
...sliding out... 
...sliding in... 
Crosshair’s eyes are hooded in desire. He can see you’re about to cum. A crooked, horny smile crosses his face. 
The tingle becomes a wave... 
IT RUSHES THROUGH YOU like beautiful warm surf racing towards your sex... 
...and reaches its destination... 
You arch your back deeper...He’s watching you at the apex of your orgasm. Time seems to slow down for a few seconds. Eyes open with no angst, anger, judgement, spite, sass...his eyes...the window to a man WIDE OPEN at this moment in time. He’s telling you with his eyes what his voice could not.  
You’re staring above right into those eyes as your head presses just a centimeter deeper into the bedding...you inhale DEEPLY as those warm tendrils explode deep at the base of your core.  
Orgiastic moan-scream comes from your mouth so intensely you feel it in the roof of your mouth. Vision fuzzing out slightly. Tiny warm explosions of nerves firing everywhere in your body.  
Crosshair squeezes you tightly, screaming gutturally, eyes shut tight, and shuddering inside you with his own climax. Both of your sensory stimuli shut out to the outside world: Only aware of you both connected at the junction of your bodies.  
And then the orgasm dissipates like a wave being pulled back out to sea. Seafoam settling in and tickling the shoals of your sex.  
You feel warm and tingly...the rush of all those endorphins. He collapses gently on top of you. Gathering each other up in embrace. 
laying in each other’s arms realizing the future is wide open. It's a bit daunting...scary even. But you have each other. And, for now, that will do.

Disgrace Chapter 4 : Crosshair x F!OC
How does one ignore the inevitable? You already know it's useless to try to avoid it, but how do you ignore its presence at your peripherals? The way it taunts you. There is absolutely nothing challenging about being stuck together on an isolated moon completely alone and cut off from the outside universe for an undisclosed amount of time. There should be plenty of wholesome ways to distract oneself... right?
Tumblr media
Chapter Specific Warnings: Nudity, Unprotected Piv, brief angst
Authors Notes: Crosshair and Tah'Nyem are like those cats who hiss and yowl at each other through a glass door but have no idea what to do once it's been opened. They chat a little about Tahny's life, love lives, and the things they refuse to talk about. Paging Medic Crosshair.
Word Count: 6700
Dynamic: Princess x Guard, Speed running Co-dependancy, A Mangy Cat and his Aggressive little Chihuahua. She's a damsel, she's in distress- she can handle it.

Chapter 4 : Aliens Talk
Tumblr media
Unbelievable.
I looked into my empty pack and the giant tear along one of its seams. 
This was designer…
I huffed and slouched back into the co-pilot chair. 
So this means everything but the inner pocket of credits was lost in the factory. Fantastic.
We had already made the jump to hyperspace, though we weren't headed straight to Ga’hah. 
Crosshair had taken a data device from a pouch and popped it into the navigation with a click. An encrypted code set a scrambled coordinate, a safe house, possibly a moon. We won't know till we get there. 
Our ship wasn't making for an extravagant trip, the partially stripped vehicle lacked any food stores and we had limited water. There were cleaning rags piled in the corners. Some crusty, tattered jackets, and a dusty pair of knee boots in the door less storage closet. The life support system was fine, but once again, freezing. 
Still. 
I got up and searched a pile of rags, picking one out that had the least amount of stains, and headed to the small sink. I wet the cloth conservatively and wiped at the dust on my face and arms, hissing as the rag passed over the scrape on my jaw where the intruder's boot had broken skin. I pulled the cloth away to eye the dark bruise that had come in. Seemed like that happened weeks ago now but it had only been about half a day. 
No medical supplies. I'll just have to tough it a while. 
The damp cloth left me more vulnerable to the cold and I would kill for a hot shower. 
And a snack. 
We had avoided saying anything for a bit now. Hunger was making us both snippy and it was safer to just avoid pushing each other's buttons in the small space. Though, I may be blaming hunger where withdrawal was a likely culprit; felt very alone with my thoughts suddenly…
I ran a little more water and rinsed my face, catching eyes watching me in the mirror when I looked up again. 
“What is it?”
I turned at his puzzled expression.
“Is that ink too?”
He gestures at the red markings and shadows around my eyes. I guess he expected it to fade like my arms. 
“A more permanent variety, yes, tattoos but it's cultural. Means I'm of age.”
He paused, but not at the insinuation.
“You have tattoos on your eyes?”
I looked at him for a moment. I admit the tats were subtle, the lines much finer than what used to be traditional. Most just assumed it was dramatic makeup. 
“...as do you?”
The air was awkward now, and I sighed. We need some food. I hope the safe house is fully stocked. 
And has running, hot water. 
I eased myself back into the co-pilot chair across from him, careful with the torn split of the tattered gown and my manifesto of growing aches and pains. I was physically active but not ‘running around blowing up factories,’ active and the extra wear and tear was catching up to me despite my conditioning. There was no spice to dull the aches and throbs and stings that plagued me. 
“Sorry.”
“Hmm.”
I looked up. 
“For what?”
“I should have let you change.”
He was eyeing my bare, scratched up thigh, though that might have been to avoid staring at the stiffened peaks beneath the thin fabric over my chest. It was always so cold on these ships.
“You're right… You should have.”
I shifted, lifting my knee to rest my foot on the cushion of the chair, letting the skirt fall away exposing the curve of my ass against the seat. 
Tumblr media
He cleared his throat and turned back to the racing field of hyperspace, shifting in his chair uncomfortably. 
Serves you right.
It was only fair he lived with the consequences. I looked over at him, pristine besides the streaks of dust here and there and contemplated getting my own set of armor. 
And I'd never leave home without it. 
The thought was glib, and mostly an attempt at amusing myself. My mind drifted to other ways to torment my captive audience. An empty can, hurtling through space. Nothing but two chairs, us, and time to kill.
… I'm just hungry. And bored. Behave. 
“So… spice?”
He broke the silence, seemingly desperate for something else to think about besides my shivering, exposed form.  
“I'm not an authority but… what about it?”
“You, uh, like it?”
“Oh, Yeah, can't deny that… it feels nice,”
“You do it a lot?”
“Not that often, The burnout is no joke, but ‘you can't run the underworld in broad daylight without knowing how to do things safely.’... so, it's fine… I know what I'm doing,”
I put on a mock tone of my father for a bit that seemed to amuse the man across from me. 
“Is that what you're doing? Cleaning up the underworld?”
“It's what my Vah’hadarr says he's doing, cleaning up the dirty side of dirty business,”
There was a little venom in that last part as I thought about the recording and the possibilities of my willful ignorance.
“It's his show…I just manage some of the actual business, It’s club and hotel and theater all in one, and it's a chore making sure it all stays legal and without political incidents,”
“Just that, huh?”
“It's a complicated trade! Mostly flimsiwork honestly, but the workers can be absolute divas when they get in a mood,”
I was on a roll now, the irritability of an empty stomach and an unhealthy amount of disassociation had me focused on the mundane topic. 
“they think because they own shares they can petition me to let them drink away all the booze and blow our spice, And Kahtzi needs to learn to not abuse her authority! The shyte she gets me into, Kriffen workplace relationships…You know, it's actually refreshing having a new set of people trying to kill me!”
I threw my hands up before resting on an arm and rubbing my forehead. 
“Who's Kahtzi?”
I was brought out of the foray into my everyday life and back to the bare cockpit.
I thought for a moment, trying to quantify Kahtzi.
“Mm, Assistant, best friend, on and off lover,”
That would have to do, it was more nuanced than that but hard to summarize. 
He made a noise that I couldn't really interpret, eventually asking:
“On?...or off?”
“Currently?”
“Guess I simplified too much. We're never really a… couple, Just… two people who take care of each other? There's not really an ‘on’ or ‘off’, we love each other but don’t really work like that… together, long term,”
A beat of silence and him patting his belt, looking for something and then giving up.
“Why not?”
I smirked a little, shooting him a look. 
“Missing the right parts,”
“There's tools for that you know,”
“Oh but those don't satisfy like flesh and blood,”
He smirked back and we fell silent again. 
Tumblr media
“How bout you, tough guy?”
“Me what?”
“Ever been in love?”
A pause as he chewed on that…
“I thought so… maybe, once or twice,”
He finally admitted. 
Cute. 
“Not at one of our houses, right? The girls can be convincing but they are paid to act like that,”
He chuckled. 
“And the boys?”
“Less convincing, that… more your thing?”
“Ah… uh, not really,”
“‘Not really’, what's that supposed to mean? Just like to look?”
“Sort of, just… some clones seem to, I just… haven't,” 
“Fascinating,”
I held my hand like it was holding a holo recorder,
“The courtship rituals of clones seems to be one of varied taste and values, furthering evidence of their individuality,”
He looked at me sideways and I felt like maybe I had gone too far.
“Sorry… I had a professor who did field studies, it's kind of a running joke between Kahtzi and I,”
I had let my guard down, and that was probably a little insensitive. I’m not too sure about clone… culture?
“Don’t be… just, seemed familiar,”
The mood had passed though and I leaned back, letting my eyes flutter shut. 
“I hope we get there soon… it's too cold to relax,”
The quiet air hung around us, thicker than before. 
~~~
I woke up, having dozed off eventually, curled up uncomfortably in the large chair. A tarp or drop cloth of some sort had been draped over me as a makeshift blanket. 
My stomach growled and a pang hit me as the acid started to flow. 
I eased my sore legs down, stretching them carefully; glad to see the fatigue hadn't grown into full on pain, and cast about for my unlikely companion.
He was bent over the console where our encryption chip was plugged in, now projecting data and instructions for our arrival. 
I padded over, my slippered feet not making much noise on the metal flooring. My hand slid to the small of his back, signaling I was there, and I leaned to look around him to the projection. 
Stifling a jump, he shifted so I could see.
We were headed to a red sun system, uninhabited. There were warnings about how much tech we used outside of the bunker, apparently any signals picked up by passerby's would be suspect. Keep the beacon on us, but abandon the ship till it's needed again. 
“So just… sit and wait?”
“Mm,”
“This seems a waste of your talents,”
“It is,”
“I once again ask…Why send you?”
“An impeccable record of self control,”
I laughed at that,
“What's so funny?”
I wasn't sure, that just seemed… wildly inaccurate. No reason to think so though, he had in fact been quiet in control of himself. 
“Is it really all that important? It can't be real that you were ordered not to sleep with me, literally…”
He shrugged giving me a look like he wasn't sure what else could be said about it.  
I scoffed at that, irritated at the confusing perimeters of the situation. 
“and to think, if they stuck me with a Reg it wouldn't have been an issue,”
“What do you mean by that?”
The question wasn't accusing, just a hint perplexed at my wording.
… Maybe I said too much. 
I sobered and straightened, trying to think of a way to side step the topic. 
“I tease, I flirt, but it's all an act… it's my job in fact, to seem available but not be, but I don't push things very far… usually, my actual cravings are…”
An enigma? Rare? A reflection of my inflated ego? Either way this is different…
I trailed off, once again too close to the truth, and retreated slightly. He was raising an eyebrow, waiting for me to finish the explanation and not realizing how dangerous it made him look to me, or perhaps, maybe he did. I deflected,
“Isn't it annoying, to have to follow such petty commands?”
Tumblr media
Turning, I wandered back towards him, lifting my arms to rest against his chest plate and leaned in close, remembering the darkness that swirled in him, in me…
How much did he see?
“You were in here, what do you think?”
He seemed to know where my mind had went, but my question appeared to bother him more than intended. There's definitely something hiding in there.  
“I think ignoring direct orders has never been an issue for you… what changed?”
We can't keep this up, without any eyes on us it seemed idiotic to keep denying ourselves. I continued, pressed to him as I was, I had to look up to catch his eyes. 
“Is the Empire really such a loving mistress?”
“...I need to be trusted,”
It was the truth, but vague enough to not answer anything. He did something… I saw it, and he's been in that swirling storm ever since. 
Was it worth it?
There was a harsh beep from the encryption chip warning that we would be dropping out of warp. 
I snapped out of the spell that had begun to fall over us and went back to sit in my chair, strapping in.  He followed shortly.
~~~
The moon under the red sun was eerily quiet. Most of the surface was water besides a few flat islands covered with coniferous pines and ferns. All that could be heard was a gentle lap of water, there were no animals, no insects… no breeze.  
The sky was a deep purple and my skin looked red under the dark filter of the alien sun. Everything else was black. The trees, the ground, the beach of smooth flat stones. 
We had been walking a while, having set down on the opposite side of the designated island as instructed, and were making our way to the bunker that should be waiting for us. Our footsteps made small shuffles and clatters as we moved down the beach, Crosshair holding the beacon out as it flashed quicker and quicker as we found our way. 
I held my tattered slippers in my hand as we picked our way along. The moon was temperate. The sun, large in the sky, cast a moderate amount of heat making the stones comfortably warm beneath my feet. 
“I wonder if it's safe to swim…”
“Should be, but I wouldn't trust it,”
I looked over the smooth expanse of water to our left. The waves were so gentle the horizon looked flat and reflective, the red ring of the sun reflecting in the inky sea. 
The beacon chirped as we came even to a path cut into the ferns and turned to follow it, eventually coming to a large metal alcove jutting from the ground. Crosshair tapped the device to a panel on the door triggering a loud mechanical whine that cracked the otherwise pristine soundscape, and the door was opening. 
Tumblr media
The first chamber was dark, the walls thick and insulating. We walked a ramp downward, about twenty paces, before coming to another barrier. 
This door clicked and a blue light illuminated the space, scanning us from floor to ceiling. 
“Welcome. Tah’nyem Ra. And. Companion.”
There was a loud swish and we were let into a small, furnished apartment. The kitchenette and living area were equipped with the usual amenities. Thick ventilation and a bank of carbon scrubbers were recessed by the door, explaining the thickness of the walls.
How well can that actually scrub all the emissions? Where do they go?
With a small electric hum, the lights came on warm and low, and a screen flashed over the couch projecting a feed of the surface. It was all rather lush, despite its size, fine fabric and intricate metal work everywhere you looked. 
A low whistle came from beside me and I turned to look at the soldier, not seeming too out of place against the black tones and shadowy aesthetic of the safe house furnishings.
“This’ll do,”
I dropped my tattered bag to the floor where it hit with a clunk, the credits and old boots from the shuttle landing hard on the tile, and made for the kitchen. 
Please please please
Popping the pantry I laughed in relief as I took in the rows of food stores. Nothing too fancy but it was more than enough for two people to live fat and happy for a while. 
I grabbed two packages and headed to the rehydrator tucked on the wall, catching Crosshair's profile still standing awkwardly by the couch. 
“Relax, Commander, Mission accomplished,”
“Not yet, we still have to get you home,”
He looked at the data stick in his hand, now quiet and dark. It would blink again once new arrangements have been made for me. Which, if my parents left the same day using civilian travel plans…
“We could have days before Vah’hadarr lands on Ga’hah,”
And who knows how long he wants me underground…
“Go on, take a shower or something, you earned it… and probably need it,”
Turning back to prepping food, I popped the packages open and tossed them into the machine, hitting the appropriate buttons so that it started humming softly. 
Crosshair hadn't made much progress, now casting his eyes about the clean, black living room and down to his guns and armor dusted in brilliant red sand. I rolled my eyes, wondering what had him so… of kilter.
“Just put it by the door, someone will probably clean and restock this place later,”
He jerked into motion and started stacking his things by the door frame, pieces of armor plating coming off in loud clacks against the hum of the cooking food. 
I leaned against the counter and eyed the sleek under suit that was emerging from beneath the plates. 
Doesn't take much imagination from there does it…
He moved to remove the belt and codpiece and I turned swiftly to look at the humming rehydrator instead. 
Well that was unlike me…
What is this? Blossoming respect?
Ugh, gotta get rid of that…
Out of the corner of my eye I traced his movements as he crossed my peripheral and into the back room of the bunker. 
I checked the timer on the food and followed, waiting a moment to hear the water start in the fresher before leaning against the door. 
“Hey, pass me your body suit, I'm sure there's a washer in here,”
There wasn't a reply but it wasn't because he didn't hear me.
“It's okay, I'll find a robe or something while you wash,”
A few seconds and the door opened, him in a towel, avoiding my gaze and holding out the black suit.
Tumblr media
I took it and the door zipped shut again, quickly. 
There was a closet next to the refresher door and I clicked it open. More towels. Next cabinet had two robes hung inside and I grabbed them both turning back to the fresher and hung one on a hook near the frame, taking the other for myself as I padded back into the short hall. 
There were two bunks opposite the door to the room and another thin door. I opened it to find the expected utilities, tossing the body suit in. Listening to make sure the shower was still running I stripped out of my tattered nightgown and tossed it in as well. 
Wishing I hadn't let him go first, I slipped the robe on, committed to filling my belly anyways. Which,
A beep could be heard from the kitchenette and I wandered back to retrieve my much needed calories, taking the two rolls from the machine and finding a plate to leave one out for Crosshair. I took a bite out of mine and savored the protein and grains, though they could use a bit more seasoning, I was starving. I eyed Cross’s portion and grabbed two more packs from the cupboard. 
That is not gonna be enough.
The faint sound of running water stopped and I scarfed down the rest of my food, eager to shower myself. 
My pace towards the bedroom faltered as the door opened and the tall clone hesitantly emerged, the gray waffle knit doing about as much to hide his frame as the tight black under suit. 
I glanced down at his exposed calves and marveled at their definition for a moment.
“Uh, there's food on the table, more cooking if you're still hungry,”
I pushed past him into the room, wedging him out and shut the door. 
Days shut in alone together and I'm supposed to behave myself. Be’llahl, what did I do to deserve this?
I knew what I did. 
I looked through the rest of the storage and found some silk button ups and trousers. Nothing my size. I checked a few more drawers, but the only female clothing I found were skimpy lingerie pieces. Sighing, I grabbed one of the large shirts and made for the fresher. 
Kriffs sake Vah'hadarr, you sure you don't want me shacking up with soldiers?
Be'llahl or not, I wanted nothing to do with thoughts on why my father's safe house was stocked with such sundries.
The water was already warm, and I stepped into the spray with a relieved groan.
My scrapes and scratches stung as the water flowed over them and I liberally coated myself with soap, feeling like the dust and sweat might never come off. 
At least it's decent stuff. 
My mind drifted as the creamy suds rinsed off of me. Mostly to the brief flash of Crosshair, framed in the door in nothing but a towel. I hadn't really processed the visual but now that I was clean and undistracted by hunger it came back in a vivid assault. 
Two days?... At least. Does today count?
I turned the handle, cutting off the warm stream and stood in the stall, letting the water bead and run down my skin, enjoying the feeling of it a moment before reaching for the towel. 
Finally dry, I carefully slipped on the black dress shirt. It was the style my father wore, the slim cut almost framing my torso, and fell to about mid thigh, reminding me how short I was compared to most Ga’haiians. I thought about rolling up the sleeves but the material fought me on it so they stayed long.
I hung my towel next to the other damp cloth already drying next to the door and stepped back out into the bedroom, catching my reflection in the mirror. 
I'd say the look was seductive, if it wasn't for the bruises and scratches that patterned my exposed legs, the oversized article hanging off my hips in a way that complimented my slim build.
Well, better than lingerie…
Wandering out to the living area I found Cross at the counter on one of the stools, halfway through the third roll and cleaning the smaller of his guns. 
He looked up from his task, eyes traveling from exposed knees to my dripping hair as he took another bite.  
What the kriff now?
I rocked from heel to toe a few times in the awkward seconds, but he was pushing away the cloth his work was organized on and tapped the stool closest to him before finishing the rest of his food. 
Closing the distance at an unsure pace, I slid onto the bar stool indicated and he pulled over another box. He had found the medical kit, popping it open now to retrieve a canister of bacta spray. 
“Oh, I can do that myse-”
He shot me a look and I shut up as he cupped my chin to examine the bruised abrasion on my jawline. 
A warm sensation spread over the wound as he carefully applied the slimy substance. 
“How did you manage to take such a beating…”
The wonder came under his breath as he moved the fabric from my shoulder, pinching a gash together and applying more spray. 
“I can handle a little pain… enjoy it even-” 
I winced, letting free a small whimper as he lifted my sore leg and assessed the damage there. 
Tumblr media
“That I can believe,”
A sigh, more spray. 
“Some escort I turned out to be…”
“Don't sweat it, I'm breathing, even have both arms still in the sockets…”
Our eyes met briefly before he finished and set my leg back onto the foot rest of the stool. 
“Those should be healed by morning,”
“Well, thanks doc, what would I do without you,”
He snorted dryly and pulled his gun back, patting at his waist, making a face like he forgot he was in a bathrobe. 
Oh!
I got up and started opening drawers in the kitchen. Finding a little box by the cutlery marked in Ga'haiian.
I triumphantly pulled out a couple travel vials of toothpicks, and rolled them across the counter where he was still perched. They were gratefully snatched up, one quickly finding its way between his teeth. He leaned into his work with more enthusiasm now that he could concentrate and I slipped a few more vials into my bag's inner pocket, moving it from where it was still discarded on the floor.
Wonder when he managed to lose them.
At least he was keeping himself busy; it was my turn to figure out how to spend the time now that my creature comforts had been met. Well, most of them.
Finally free to really roam about the space I realized there wasn't a lot to look at. The living area was made up of a low, deep couch made of a soft black leather, a console with speakers beneath the false window, and another screen housing facing the couch. The kitchenette was barely a hallway, separated from the rest of the space by the thin island counter Crosshair was leaning over. Then the short passage with bunks and utilities to one side and the proper room with the refresher on the other. 
The bunker had no access to the outside holonet, its system self contained and concealed from any scans or probing. This meant all entertainment was limited to whatever was preloaded into the base's memory. 
I scrolled through the holopad, reading through the meager selection of games, films, and music. There… wasn't much. 
Wonderful, we can spend our time playing cards.
I selected an old Diva Shaliqua track and the hypnotic tones of the Theelin’s voice poured from the speakers, making the space more familiar and inviting. 
I turned to Crosshair gesturing to the speakers, and he nodded approval. 
“You a fan of the Divas?” 
“Not really a fan of anything,”
“Mm… Kahtzi’s related you know, not that that's saying much, I think all Theelin are related at this point,”
Kahtzi was a human Theelin hybrid, and would have been rather difficult to meet if I hadn't attended such a prestigious university. There were only about a million or so left in the galaxy. 
There were nested cabinets all around the room and I popped them open systematically, checking their contents. Most were empty, but one contained a few soft knit blankets. I carried one back to the couch and sank into it, pulling the knit tight around me. 
Exhaustion was catching up to me quickly, the nap on the tiny shuttle didn't do much in the way of rest. The warm living room and soft music were lulling me into a state of true relaxation.
It wasn't long till my eyes grew too heavy to keep open, and I fell into a deep sleep. 
~~~
Where's that cultural dress I had made for the meeting, Tah’nyem? 
No it's not revealing
That's the style, li’ha, the clients appreciate the care we pay to their customs.
… 
Wear. It. 
It was dark when I opened my eyes again, the stereo and most of the lights turned off. 
I couldn't see Crosshair, but I could hear his breathing in the direction of the bunks. It didn't take long for me to figure that that was what woke me. The breathing was labored, almost panting, irregular. I got up with my blanket and tip-toed over to the hall to check on him. 
As suspected, his eyelids were twitching rapidly and a sheen of sweat glinted in the remaining light spilling over from the kitchen. I thought about waking him, but the brown eyes fluttered open on their own. He looked disoriented for a moment, but quickly refocused on me standing near the foot of the bunk. 
“What are you doing?”
I sat next to his knees. 
“Just seeing what the fuss is about, you remember what you were dreaming?”
He was quiet for a while. 
“No,”
It was a lie. 
“You know, if you were to talk about the shadows that swim behind those eyes… who would be safer than someone you'll know so briefly?”
That didn't seem to placate him, but he forced himself into something resembling ease. 
“It’s… I'm fine,”
Tumblr media
I reached over and took his hand, turning it to massage the palm as I had on the transport only a day or so ago and the ease seeped into him, becoming real. 
“You want to go back to sleep?”
“No,”
Genuine this time. 
“Me neither…”
I cast my eyes about the space, now feeling stiflingly small. 
“Come on,”
I tugged his arm, getting up from the bunk and letting my blanket fall to the floor. 
“Where, exactly?”
“Let's get some fresh air,”
“Prince-... Tah’Nyem, we have to stay within the walls,”
It was the first time he had used my name rather than the more derogatory form of endearment and it sounded wrong in its formality. 
“Tahny,”
“What?”
“Call me Tahny… my full honorific feels… too heavy on your lips,”
No one really called me that anymore other than my mother, but…
“We have to stay inside… Tahny,”
My heart fluttered. The childhood nickname sounded different, colored by his voice, and it only spurred my resolve. 
“Anything a scanner can pick up has to stay down here, empty your pockets and it'll be fine,”
He still resisted. 
“They can scan for life forms…”
“The trees will throw them off,”
I turned, still holding his hand, to be even with him sitting up on the bunk. 
“Please, Crosshair?”
Since we're on a first name basis now…
A little tremor went through him and he sighed, moving to get up but pulling his hand from mine to close the robe that had come undone while he slept. 
Together, we left the mechanical hums and whines of the bunker doors, making our way back out into the dark, red stained landscape. 
The sun was positioned differently, but nothing else had changed since we had passed through hours ago. The rocks were warm on my bare feet, and the water lapped softly against the surreal, black backdrop of stones and trees. 
I could feel his wary presence, calm but untrusting, scanning the horizon. He had grabbed his rifle, and now held it lazily to his side while he took in the alien moon. 
Turning back to the sea, I breathed deeply, expecting to smell salt, but all that came to me was the vaguely green scent of ferns. How good it felt to be outside. 
“I've never seen a world like this, have you?”
“Red suns I've seen, but like this? Not… exactly,”
“New for both of us then?”
A noise of affirmation. 
I stood a moment, taking it in, breathing the fresh air and toying with the buttons of the shirt I was draped in. 
“I wonder what else we have in common…”
I didn't need to use much imagination, having been forcibly dragged through each other's minds. We're both filled with dark, swirling thoughts of people not their own. An ever growing resentment for being perceived, thoughts racing in an ever tightening circle of how to be free of… well, everything.
Death wish?
It seemed like an accurate label, and its hold was on both of us. We flirt with danger in different ways… but we were just begging for one instance, one moment, where maybe the danger will win. End the torture, the loneliness. Give us our freedom. All it took was once. Was one bad decision really better than another?
“Put your gun down.”
“No,”
A pause of consideration,
“Why?”
“You won't need it.”
A moment passed as he fought with abandoning his physical sense of security. Eventually, I heard him put the stock on the ground, apparently leaning it against one of the trees at the edge of the narrow beach. 
With a deft hand, I worked the buttons down my shirt free of their clasps and let the fabric fall with a slither onto the warm stones. 
“Tahny!”
Alarm in his voice. 
“Quiet.”
Tumblr media
The command made him rock back from whatever action he meant to take to end this. 
I turned to look over my shoulder. He was only a few paces away, transfixed in a sort of befuddled way. 
“Why do we give them everything?”
“W-what?”
“Everyone else. Those who control us, own us as you will, just… accepting that if they decide to change our lives, abandon us, use us, it's in their power to do so, and yet- what do they let us have for ourselves? What do they think of us?… they don't even see us,”
He didn't answer, I didn't need him to. 
“Listen… you can walk away, go inside, forget this and me the moment we part ways,”
A long moment of nothing but the lap of water…
“..or?”
It was so quiet. I turned and slowly closed the distance, pressing against him, feeling how tense he suddenly was. 
Tumblr media
“You can help me remember this beautiful night in a way that would always be ours,”
His breath was carefully even. 
I looked into his eyes, pleading. 
“How many times will you throw yourself at death till it finally snags you? Would you really go off to die without having me? Never knowing…”
He still teetered on the edge of duty and reason but had run out of excuses. His eyes darkened as I reminded him of our grim realities, stoking an anger that reflected what was burning through my core. I kept pushing,
“I don't know how you work but for me… it would be torture to never know you,”
Tumblr media
I had my answer when his arms snaked around me, crushing me to him as his mouth found mine, clamping to me with a sudden, desperate hunger; Ravenous to take, to have, to fight back in a way that would bring a smile to Be'llahl.
Hands running over his chest in return, I slipped the robe from his shoulders helping him to catch up to my nudity. 
His fingers roved down my hips, giving my ass a firm squeeze before he carefully lowered himself to the ground pulling me into his lap, never breaking the kiss that was slowly consuming us in flames of lust and hidden rage. 
I moaned into his mouth in need as I felt his cock stiffening against my thighs. Taking him in hand, I felt the weight of him, the length against my wrist as I gripped the base. I couldn't wait much longer. 
“Please, Crosshair…”
My flesh was on fire, his hands on me sending waves of tingles to my brain churning me into a sensitive mess. He stroked his fingers up my spine and I arched against him with a gasp. Using my free hand to cup his neck, thumb caressing the edge of the ragged scar over his ear, he took the opportunity to bite at a nipple that had come in range. 
This earned him another pitiful moan and I stroked his length wanting it inside of me. 
With a low growl he gathered my arms and held them behind my back easily with one hand. The other slid over my hip and down between my legs, gently caressing the tender petals he found there making me tremble as he coaxed the slickness of my arousal to drip onto his waiting member. 
Tumblr media
He moaned low, the same need consuming him, and he guided himself to my entrance. There was no resistance as he lowered me down to take him fully, pulling me into him till he was sheathed in me, grinding against my slick and swollen lips. 
We both sighed in relief before our mouths met again, less frantic now. Taking the time to explore the sensation of us, pulling back only to look at each other, bodies now interlocked. He was beautiful beneath me, naked and drenched in red light…
I squeezed my thighs. Rocking myself on his lap, desperate for some friction, he tightened his grip on my wrists. His other arm wrapped around me firmly but he was letting me take the lead. Cross’s lips gently brushed my forehead creating a strange juxtaposition with the rough, dominant hold around my bucking hips. 
The stones under my knees shifted with me as I rode him, his hands guiding my bouncing body. He was trembling, but focused, not wanting this to end too soon. I could feel the pleasure shifting into something more wild as I reached the first threshold. He pulled me down onto him suddenly, slamming into me, driving me over the waiting edge. 
The climax took me quickly, days of tension making me easy quarry, and my knees squeezed his hips as I let out a strangled cry, any other thoughts forcibly scrubbed from my brain as I shook in his hold. My desire was only deepening. I was starting to fear the physical contact wasn't going to be enough any more. I wanted him in my mind again, clawing against my soul. 
“Look at me,”
My eyes fluttered open, not realizing I had closed them. I drank in his face, the rapture in it, the red sun reflected in his eyes. 
This will have to do…
He let go of my arms, letting his left hand drift to my hip while his right trailed up to my neck, holding it gently as he laid back onto the stones. He thrusted up, increasing the power from below. 
The scoop of my hips became violent as I met each of his strokes, arms now free to use his chest  for balance. I dug my fingertips into the firm pecs as pleasure pushed the sense from me; It escaped in wispy moans that carried across the rippling water. It didn't take long for another orgasm to rip through me, harder this time. My muscles clamped down on him threatening to push him free as I cried out, echoing into the quiet, alien night.
I didn't dare look away. With him holding my neck, I couldn't if I wanted to. It was all intensity rolling off of him and a rumbling through his breastbone, pleased with my writhing form holding his eyes so desperately.
Tumblr media
“Oh Cross… li’nen, you feel so good,”
The world was spinning, he shifted us, skillfully flipping to be on top of me. My back pressed into the warm stones and I adjusted, wrapping my legs around his hips as he continued with careful, measured humping. 
No… that's not right.
“Don't, ah! hold back,”
His rhythm faltered but he didn't change pace. 
“I don't want to, ha-hurt you,”
“It's okay… I can take it, just… I want it all Cross-hah, give me everything,”
He took a deep, shaking breath… then roughly thrust into me. His chest pinned me as he scooped forward in a full bodied motion taking up a slower, harder rhythm.
I hadn't realized how much he had been restraining himself and I groaned at the new force. It took a moment to acclimate before becoming comfortable. I remembered what was said about his enhanced strength…
I'll have more bruises tomorrow for sure,
The thought was wiped clean as my body shuddered with each hammering thrust, any jolt of pain becoming pleasure as it was lost in the labyrinth of my quivering nerves. All I could do was wrap my arms and legs tighter about him. 
I was getting close again. Listening to his soft grunts as he ravaged me was just as erotic as the physical sensation. It felt like I was floating, eyes glazed, no longer capable of much sound at all. I clung to him, his breath, his heartbeat, the only thing that was real anymore. 
A gasp finally escaped me as everything became brighter. I claimed his lips again as I came, nails biting into his back and legs locking about his hips as my muscles flexed against him wanting him as deep as possible.
It was finally too much for him and his breath caught as he lost the battle with his own pleasure. He pressed back against me, letting my knees pull him deeper as he twitched inside, wracked in his own orgasm, a soft groan against my lips,
“Tahny…”
Before he collapsed over me. The hormones fled, leaving him spent and panting. 
I stroked his back as he rested his forehead against mine and we breathed heavily… together, reduced to our most vulnerable forms. 
Two frightened children, lost and adrift on the edge of the galaxy, grasping for a friend in the dark.

Starbright Chapter 4
It's been a quick second but I could never forget about my lovely lovely Hunter.

UNTITLED FIC SMUT SNIPPET
CROSSHAIR x READER NON GENDER
Tumblr media
YES! I'm teasing you!!! Especially @haybellewrites
Warning: Slight smutty McSmutterson action. Nothing too graphic, but definite Crosshair smut! NO MINORS!
Word Count: 185
THE EDIBLE TOLD ME TO DO EEET!!!
The grief was too much for you both. 
Lying in bed at night...the uncertainty and rising arousal making sleep elusive. Two people alone in the vastness of space, on a dark, silent ship. The distance between you palpable. 
“Are...you awake?” he furtively asked with hushed tones in the dark. 
“Umhmm.” Intrigued as to why he asked. 
Silence. 
You lay there in the dark waiting for an answer. 
More silence... 
...then Crosshairs hand gently smoothing away the hair from your temple. 
You immediately embrace him tightly. 
He falters for just a beat. Body frozen for what seems like an eternity. Would this scare him away? 
Then you feel his arms encircle you, lips upon your cheek...kissing down to your lips. 
Unable to hold back any further, you turn your head to meet his lips to yours. 
Mouths opening to breathe into the well of one another. Sliding upon each other passionately. Breaths furiously taken in between long heated kisses. 
Then parting quickly to pull the clothing from each other's body. Almost ripping the cloth away from bare skin. Occasional moans of longing for skin-to-skin contact....
PLEASE like, comment, and/or REBLOG!

AND
This silly movie scene from the 1980's flick "Real Genius"
youtube
Tumblr media
The Batch finished up their latest mission, picking up a new passenger along the way. Y/N was a Force sensitive hitching a ride to a planet they would be passing on the way to Kamino. She would only be with them a few standard days on the Marauder, and the crew made sure she had a comfortable stay. 
Within two days Hunter was smitten. He usually kept himself from developing any attachments to nat borns. But...well, this one was different...and difficult to ignore. Of course, he still engaged with her politely. Being a Sergeant and host on this transport, he kept some distance. 
Y/N was attractive. Not conventionally, as he wouldn’t consider himself attracted to just ANY pretty face. But she had that...thing. An essence? Something that just took him out at the knees. It was elusive... 
...and she smelled SO GOOD. Hell, even when she was sweaty, dirty, just woke up in the morning...heady scent of her body odor with the slightest tang of her sex... 
Hunter shifted in the pilot’s seat. His armor codpiece felt tight. Dammit, he NEEDED to stop getting distracted. He was supposed to be sitting watch on the ship. 
Technically Echo was to stand this shift. However, he was under the weather and now lying down like the rest of his brothers. 
Hunter could hear Crosshair breathing, Echo’s ticking mechanical heart, and smell Tech’s drool...as he slept face down with mouth open. Wreckers' snores were like a power tool, until his sleep apnea kicked in. Hunter would count the seconds unconsciously holding his own breath too...until Wrecker finally inhaled. 
Hunter inhaled deeply just thinking about it... 
...until Y/N sighed in her sleep. The sound brought his attention back to the heat and tightness in his groin. 
Cut it out Peck! Hunter internally warned his cock. 
Yes, Hunter nicknamed his pecker. And he admitted it to NO ONE! Although, he came close one time when Echo confidentially revealed to Hunter that he named his scomp. 
Oh Broody...you’re such a tight ass PRUDE! 
Hunter shot up from the chair looking around the cockpit. He SWORE he heard a whisper so close...unsure if it was outside or INSIDE HIS HEAD!!!  
KRIFF, I’m hearing things. Although, it was his THIRD consecutive day of chronic insomnia. Was he hallucinating? 
Listening again, Hunter could perceive everyone was asleep and accounted for. He sat back down. 
Broody...it’s me! Peck!!! In a strangely soft but high-pitched voice. 
Then the voice started clucking. 
Hunter spun around in the chair. He felt for CERTAIN there were NO CHICKENS on the Marauder. Shit...he REALLY needed to start taking that nasty tasting sleep medication Tech concocted.  
Finally lost my mind...was bound to eventually happen. Lack of sleep, having to look after his bonehead brothers, save Echo, and... sitting here alone in the starlit darkness. Running his hand down his face and resigned himself to having an internal discussion with his own cock. What would it hurt? Besides everyone was asleep. Let’s just go with it and see... 
Peck? Hunter called out with his mind. 
Yeah Broody? 
I’m NOT a prude. Just polite. 
Y/N is a grown ass woman, Hunter. You CAN talk to her. 
What would I say? 
She needs MORE than those furtive glances and puppy dog eyes. Show her the WOLF you are, Hunter. 
She’s our guest NOT a sex object! 
Oh...so she’s NEVER had an impure thought about YOU? 
A very feminine moan and a sigh wafted from the pallet Y/N was sleeping on the bunk room floor. She must have been having a hell of a dream...as Hunter could smell her wet arousal. 
Hunter’s cock was now becoming painful with an intense pressure against his codpiece. 
Clucking...C’mon ole boy. Would you deny yourself the opportunity of a grown woman’s consent? 
You DON’T KNOW if she even thinks about me THAT WAY! 
Oh YES I DO! 
Hunter ripped the codpiece off and threw it behind him. His girthy engorged cock staining through his blacks...and leaving a wet spot. 
Ohh...THANK FORCE you let me out! Suffocating in there!!! Clucking... 
SHUT UP! Hunter pushed his pecker down between his legs, then crossed them tightly. 
Mmhmm, hmm, mhm mmm... Muffled speech. Clucking intensified. 
DANK FERRICK! She did look at him a lot and smiled. He could sense her body reacting to him MUCH differently than his brothers. The thrumming of her presence on his senses. Something he guessed was her Force sensitivity. It would tickle his nerve endings and make him shiver...in a VERY good way. Was Y/N flirting with the Force? Hunter wasn’t exactly sure. 
But he didn’t want to take advantage and come off as a creep. 
Hunter was so caught up in his head he barely registered a rustling... 
...and swung the chair around to face... 
...Y/N standing there, blanket wrapped around her shoulders, eyes hooded in desire. 
Hunter sprang up out of the chair and his cock sprang up from between his legs. His expression was of dumb embarrassment due to all the blood rushing away from his brain. 
Her gaze lingered on his cock. Then she stared him straight in the eyes... 
...and dropped her blanket. She was buck naked. 
Hunter’s jaw dropped. Y/N giggled seductively, strolled over to Hunter and pressed everything she had up against him. 
He almost died of heart failure but managed to gently slide both hands up her back in a tender caress. 
“Are you sure???” 
“Yes, Hunter...PLEASE EAT me and FUCK me!” With that she grabbed two handfuls of his luxurious hair and devoured his mouth. 
Hunter, ever the gentleman who could follow directions to the letter, obliged her. 
Tumblr media
“Permission to FINALLY stop drooling upon the sheets? Feel like I’m still on Kamino...” Tech whispered. 
Quiet moaning from the cockpit area. 
Echo whispered back on the comm channel “Everyone, the coast is clear. Target engaged.” 
Everyone received the order via earpiece. They could now relax and drop the ruse of being asleep. 
Tech sighed, “Now I can FINALLY get in the refresher. He was spending an abnormal amount of time in there lately...”   
“Look who's talking, Mr Clean. Wrecker piped up. “Shiniest dick in the galaxy.” 
“At least Hunter cleans the cum off the shower walls.” Tech shot Wrecker a baleful stare 
“Ey, can’t help I got a big dick.” Wrecker smiled like a shithead, nodding at Tech’s crotch. “Can’t help making a BIG splash...and miss some at times.” 
“ARE YOU IMPLYING MY REPRODUCTIVE ORGAN IS LESS THAN SUFFICIENT SIZE???” 
Echo interrupted on comm, “Will the two of you QUIET THE FUCK DOWN! Our target will disengage...and Y/N will not acquire the asset!” 
Wrecker giggled, “Oh, she’s definitely acquiring that ASS-ET!” Getting louder again. 
Echo and Tech shushed him again. 
Clucking continued over the coms... 
Echo slid to the edge of his bunk and looked up. Crosshair lay on the top bunk, pillow pressed savagely over his face. He was shaking and clucking like a deranged farm fowl. 
“If I had known you’d carry on so much, would have been the voice myself. Plus, you SERIOUSLY veered off script!” Echo sneered. Wondering if he was the only one on this ship, save their guest, to have at least one brain cell. 
His musing was interrupted by much louder moans, sexual swears, and the wet slapping of flesh. 
“Engage ear protection. Sound cancelling level 10. NO eavesdropping, men. We may be feral and efficient commandos, but we STILL have some semblance of morals!” 
The clucking turned to coughing. “That’s what YOU think!” Crosshair finally got a hold of himself. 
Echo rolled his eyes and threw the covers over his head. Thankfully N/A being Force sensitive was able to help them by dampening their ambient noise to Hunter's senses and... 
...OH!  
Echo’s eyes popped open realizing...she ALSO had to give CROSSHAIR access to the mental conversation in Hunter’s head to be as effective a voice as possible! 
And... Crosshair laughed all through it like a fucking MANIAC! 
Echo sighed. That boy ain’t right....

"Bring Me To My Knees" PART 1
Crosshair/Hunter x Reader Non Gendered SMUT++
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Dividers by the talented: @saradika and @4ngelic-wh1spers
Background: Reader and Crosshair are separated from the group during the rescue of Omega and Tech from Mt Tantiss. Two broken people trying to get by in the galaxy. Then two broken people finally dealing with what happened to their group.
Word Count: 2.3K
Warning: Star Wars Canon violence, angst, sadness, crying, guilt, stuff blowing up, swearing, kissing, intercourse, heavy petting, hair pulling kink, smutty/lemony content, lovers triangle with Hunter and Crosshair.
FOR CLARITY, THERE IS A HUNTER FLASHBACK SMUT SCENE IN THIS CHAPTER. THE CROSSHAIR SMUT SCENE IS IN CHAPTER 2. Broke this up in 2 chapters because I just couldn't stop writing...and 4K might be too much for one sitting.
*YES! I know Mesh'la is Mando'a speak for beautiful. However, I personally think it sounds pretty sexy when someone uses it while going to Pound Town. I like it better than baby, honey, girl, boy, lover, whatever. My personal kink. If you aren't caught up, there's a whole Tumblr discussion about if the Clones would even use this language. PLEASE just let me have this one word. Thanks.
I purposely wrote the reader in this fic to be of no specific gender. Tried to carefully craft the sexual scenes to accommodate either gender/non gendered/trans/genderfluid/non-binary. Everyone has hills, valleys, sexual organs, nipples, and erogenous zones. I wrote them into the story, but it's up to you dear reader to put your imagination to work. Hope I have done a good enough job that you can enjoy yourself with Hunter and Crosshair without breaking immersion!
Tumblr media
Explosions and blaster fire filled the air as you, Phee Genoa, and The Batch escaped Mt Tantiss.  Wrecker led the charge, firing away and punching imps.  Phee behind him with a group of prisoners she freed from the facility.  Hunter, his arm around Tech who was barely able to walk, blaster out firing.  You and Omega supported Crosshair bringing up the rear of the group. 
The Empire attempted to lock down the facility, engaging all doors on every level.  Hunter got Tech past them as they started to close.  
He turned with Tech in tow to shout, “Y/N, Omega, bring Crosshair!  Hurry!!!” 
You and Omega would never make it with the slow progress Cross was making.  Grabbing Omega and with a healthy heft, you slid her across the highly polished flooring.  She barely exited past the threshold just as the doors closed.   
The last thing you and Crosshair saw was Omega loudly protesting while Hunter grabbed the back of her tunic to yank her out of the way.  And the look of total panic on Hunter’s face. 
Tumblr media
“Leave me.”  Crosshair weakly slumped against the steel hallway wall. 
“SHUT UP!  Too late for that!!!”  You grabbed Cross’ arm and attempted to pull him up. 
He refused to move.  You were warned he might be difficult. 
“GET UP NOW YOU FUCKING MOP!!!”  Viciously kicking his upper thigh in heated frustration. 
That got his attention.  Crosshair’s head flicked up.  Anger in his eyes. 
You grabbed the front of his tunic with both hands, hefting him up, spitting with rage “I’M NOT DYING HERE!  GET UP YOU UNGRATEFUL ASSHOLE!!!” 
He managed to stand with his arm around your shoulders.  Pulling your blaster.  “How do we get out of here?” 
“How should I know?  Been locked up all this time.” 
“KRIFF!  Knew I threw the wrong person under the door!!!” 
“Didn’t ask YOU to save me.” 
You gritted your teeth and shot the control panel to the door the rest of The Batch disappeared through.  The doors managed to only open a few feet.  You literally stuffed Crosshair into the gap.  His protests were muted by the sound of screams and explosions.  He got stuck halfway through, then you put a foot in his ass and pushed.  He popped through falling into a crouch on the floor.  
“You’re INSANE!” 
“YES!  KEEP MOVING!!!” 
Running up to Cross, you grabbed the back of his tunic and pulled him to his feet.  Both of you ran across the hangar bay.  The Marauder and Phee’s ship were gone.  You weren’t upset, they HAD to leave in a hurry.  It was total chaos.  
You both made a beeline for the first empty Imperial ship available.  Entering, you slid into the pilot’s seat and put up the gangplank.  Then commenced firing on every non-friendly that approached.  Some of the other Imperial ships got caught in the crossfire, exploding dramatically.  Crosshair buckled himself into the co-pilot's chair. 
As your ship left the hangar, two fighters followed in hot pursuit.  You kept the craft low and entered the thick forest, shooting down trees in your path.  Crosshair held onto his seat white knuckled. 
“You’re going to get us killed!” 
“Got any better ideas, Fly Boy?  We’re sitting ducks out in the open.” 
He shut up and held on. 
One ship pulled away from pursuit.    
The other followed.  You kept firing, making a path to evade your pursuer.   
He didn’t last long. One tree you felled, dragged another with it as you passed.  It caught its wing, flinging the ship to the forest floor, exploding brightly behind you. 
Pulling the craft up out of the forest, you ascended... 
...where the other Imperial fighter sat waiting! 
Close enough to see its pilot in the cockpit, waiting to open fire. 
The end of the line. Crosshair inhaled sharply.   
The ship exploded suddenly.  And your craft flew through the fiery remains. 
“Didn’t think I’d leave you?” Hunter’s voice came over the comm. 
You nearly burst into tears of joy.  “Oh, THANK STARS!” 
“Let’s get out of here!  Echo’s sending jump coordinates...” You immediately heard blaster fire over their comm. The transmission broke up. 
“HUNTER???”   
Static.  “...ing to...GO!  Can you hea...” More static.  Comm went dead.  Nothing. 
“HUNTER!  HUNTER...COME IN!!!  CAN YOU HEAR ME???” 
Crosshair shot you a horrified glance. 
The little bit you could discern, your Sergeant’s orders were to leave the planet immediately.  What if they needed help?  You couldn’t leave HIM...them behind! 
You brought the ship around and could see a craft trailing fire and smoke behind it.  Looked to be the Havoc Marauder making its way off world.  Several Imperial fighters were gaining on it.  Kicking your ship into gear and taking off in their direction.  You picked off two and allowed the Marauder to make the jump to hyperspace. 
The last ship circled round. 
Panicking, locking up, “Where did they go?  I don’t have coordinates!” 
Crosshair’s terse voice came from the co-pilot's seat, “Pick ANY!  We don’t have time!!!” 
“But...we...” 
“DO IT or we die!”  Dark eyes bore into your skull.  “I’LL DO IT!!!  You make the jump!”  He furiously typed something into the craft’s dash. 
“Jump...NOW!!!” 
The Imperial fighter on your tail, firing. 
You sat frozen.  Your hand a lead weight on the jump lever. 
“DAMMIT!”  Crosshair slammed his hand on top of yours, shoving the lever over.  The black star-studded sky elongated; bright blue light burst through the windscreen. 
You sat staring through the windscreen of the ship, blue blurs whizzing past. 
“Y/N?” 
A hand suddenly on your shoulder. 
“WHAT!”  You jumped and snapped upright. 
“You...went away for a while...” 
Staring at Crosshair’s unreadable expression. 
“We’ll find them.  Take some time, though.” 
Nodding, you relaxed back in the seat.  “Yeah, gonna take some doing.” 
Tumblr media
Handing the soup bowl to Crosshair, he sulked...and refused to eat...again. 
“You NEED to eat.” 
He sneered. 
“Don’t make me regret getting you out of that facility.” 
Cross sighed heavily and took the bowl.  He STILL wasn't eating, just staring into it.  This man was driving you insane...if you didn’t kill him first. 
“It’s actually pretty good for a ration packet.  Provided you eat it while still warm.” 
“Why are you bothering?” 
ON YOUR LAST NERVE. 
“Why did YOU bother pushing us into hyperspace...if you want to suffer and die so badly?” 
Silence. 
Suddenly you had the urge to slap the damned bowl out of his hand.  “REALLY???  Let your skinny ass STARVE!  Ungrateful son-of-a...kriffing...GAH!  FUCK!!!” 
Your sudden anger sparked something. 
Crosshair slowly smirked. 
“Knock it off and DRINK YOUR FUCKING SOUP!”  Getting up, stalking off, mumbling angrily to yourself...hoping the tiny food galley didn’t have any knives. 
Tumblr media
Checking up later, you found the bowl empty.  Cross slumped in the chair; eyes closed. 
To anyone else, it would look like he was napping.  You knew better. 
You picked up the bowl to take it back to the galley. 
“My compliments to the chef.” 
You rolled your eyes. 
“I meant it.” 
“Whatever.” 
Cross opened his eyes, aiming for an argument.  “It’s a compliment.  Take it or leave it.” 
“I don’t trust you.” 
An unexpectedly hurt expression flickered across his face.  “This isn’t about the soup, is it?” 
“No genius.  I was warned you’re a constant shit stirrer.” 
“Well, Hunter was never my biggest fan.” 
“It wasn’t Hunter.” 
This seemed to surprise Crosshair. 
“Echo...he’s a bit of a shit stirrer himself.  Takes one to know one.” 
Cross raised an eyebrow. 
“Oh...and Wrecker thinks you take yourself too seriously.  I think his actual words were...he needs to unclench his butt cheeks.” 
Raised the other eyebrow. 
“But Wrecker was incorrect.” 
“Oh?” 
“As far as I can tell, you DON’T have an ass.” 
Crosshair leaned forward, slight smirk around the edges of his mouth. 
“Been looking...have you?” 
“I think most people would say you’re just a torso with legs...Toothpick.” 
He genuinely smiled at the new nickname. 
“More soup?” 
“Yes more, Soup.” 
Tumblr media
Nights were difficult and Crosshair struggled to sleep through. Awakening to hear him working through a nightmare. Sometimes he would mutter, groan, and thrash about, eventually snoring again. This happened several times a night. Other times he would awaken, panting and sweating, trying to remember he was no longer imprisoned on Mt Tantiss. 
At first, he turned down your attempts to soothe him. That didn’t last long. It became a habit of you sitting next to his bunk on the metal floor, talking him through it. Eventually, you just crawled into bed and laid there next to him. It was certainly more comfortable than that damned hard floor. 
Crosshair’s breathing settled into a regular rhythm. Stars, it was warm and cozy in this bunk. The idea of walking across that cold decking to your own bunk just seemed depressing. Five more minutes and you’d get up.  
That didn’t happen. Two minutes in and you passed out cold. 
Tumblr media
youtube
(You like a song to go with the scene? Please check out this song. It "literally" FUCKS!!!)
"Mmhmmm...” 
The deep bass of Hunter’s groan making you wetter as his hard cock slid in and out of you.
“Ohh...fuu...mmm...” Words were difficult when he kissed your neck like this. Whispering sweet things in your ear while gently fucking your brains out. 
Laying on your sides, facing each other. One leg thrown over his hips, both of your hands deep in his curls. Grasping them with ferocity. The pain brought him pleasure... 
Hunter slid his hand down your back to firmly grip your buttocks and picked up the rhythm of his thrusts. 
“Kriff...can’t wait to do this...with you...in our home...all...the...fucking...time...” The last four words he spoke with each luscious stroke of his member. 
“Huuunter...” Your eyes rolled back into your head. 
“Got...a nice...little planet...just...for us...” 
Heat and intensity rising in you. 
“You...want...that...too...?” 
...sliding in... 
You gasp...” Yes...” 
“Yeah?” Cajoling you with that sexy fucking voice. 
...sliding out... 
“YES...” 
...sliding in... 
“Tell me, Mesh’la.” He’s shuddering. 
Your back arches “YES!!!” 
Hunter reaches out and caresses your face... 
...and you awake with a start. Crosshair had an expression like he’d been caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Pulling back his hand suddenly. 
“Wu-what???” He stammered. 
Trying to shake off your sleepy arousal...slurring. “Did...YOU jus’ touch...Mah face?” 
“WHY are YOU still in my bunk?” 
The dream-feeling melting away...your brain having to process the waking world... 
“...because...your nightmares... I’m the dumbass...who makes sure you sleep.” 
Silence. Crosshair studying your face. 
“You’re welcome.” 
“Well, I’m NOT having one NOW.” 
“Ships cold during the night. Ain’t going nowhere.” You rolled over, giving him your back. Maybe...you could pick that dream back up? 
“Fine. You can stay if YOU stop moaning Hunter’s name when you spoon ME!” 
You rolled back over shocked. 
“Yes, you did.” 
“What else did I say...or do?” 
Crosshair grinned like he knew too much and rolled over without answering. 
Tumblr media
Weeks passed as you and Crosshair bickered your way slowly through the galaxy.  The Empire tamped down tightly on most of the planets in the system.  The Outer Rim while wildly dangerous, seemed mostly untouched and safest. 
You both did side jobs to keep yourselves fed while trying comm channels and leaving messages with close contacts about the rest of The Batch’s whereabouts.   
Everything seemed to lead to a dead end.  Like they just disappeared. 
In your heart of hearts, you knew Hunter would NEVER stop looking for you both...even if Cross had his doubts. 
Tumblr media
The open-air market on some back water Outer Rim moon provided a distraction. The textile stand caught your eye. Beautiful scarves...you picked up a jet black one with fine silver metallic strands running through it. 
"Good choice. It compliments your hair." The elderly shop keep stepped from behind a long quilt hanging behind the counter. 
"Marv! Are you flirting again?" An older woman approached clearly teasing her husband. 
"Now why would I do that when I have you, my sweet Meiloorun? Besides, here's their partner now." 
Cross sauntered up to the counter, amused at the comment. 
"Hello honey" He teased. 
You rolled your eyes, ignoring his "greeting." "Toothpick, what do you think of this scarf?" 
"Hmm, not really my style." Cross reached down to pull another scarf from under the pile. "Now this one..." 
It was rusty red with fine intermittent broken off-white stripes dispersed through it. Crosshair draped it around his neck. "What do you think?" 
The blood drained from your face. 
"No..." You dropped the scarf and hurried away from the stand. 
Tumblr media
Cross caught up to you a few moments later...still wearing that damned scarf.  
“Soup!” 
You kept walking, angry...and hurt. 
"Care to explain?" 
Stopping and grabbing the fabric in your fist. "That's HIS scarf...NOT YOURS!  
Cross softened. Not a trace of snark on his face. "You WERE in love with Hunter." 
"We are STILL in a relationship, Crosshair! Just because Hunter and I are apart doesn't mean that ended." 
Crosshair stared into your eyes with such an intensity...it was difficult to keep eye contact. 
"So...I complicate those feelings." It wasn't a question. He didn't need to ask. 
You noticed his eyes changed from brown to grey in this perfect light. The light of the sun starting to set on this backwater moon. Almost the same color as his brother's eyes. 
You sighed deeply, letting go of the scarf. Your hand dropping to rest, open palmed on Crosshair's chest. 
He stepped closer, placing his warm hand over yours. 
“We’ll find them.” 
“How? We’ve been looking...” 
He squeezed your hand. “Marv and Mel...they’re a front for The Rebellion. Gathering intel and recruiting volunteers to fight the Empire.” 
You looked up at Crosshair with renewed hope. 
“They know where we can find Rex. He’ll be able to help us.” 
You nodded. So many thoughts going through your head. 
Cross took the scarf off and slid it over your head, to rest around your shoulders.  
“C’mon Soup, there’s a place around here with those Space Cakes you like. My treat.” 
He led the way hugging you closely.

This silly movie scene from the 1980's flick "Real Genius"
youtube
Tumblr media
The Batch finished up their latest mission, picking up a new passenger along the way. Y/N was a Force sensitive hitching a ride to a planet they would be passing on the way to Kamino. She would only be staying a few standard days on the Marauder, and the crew made sure she had a comfortable stay. 
Within two days Hunter was smitten. He usually kept himself from developing any attachments to nat borns. But...well, this one was different...and difficult to ignore. Of course, he still engaged with her politely. Being a Sergeant and host on this transport, he kept some distance. 
Y/N was attractive. Not conventionally, as he wouldn’t consider himself attracted to just ANY pretty face. But she had that...thing. An essence? Something that just took him out at the knees. It was elusive... 
...and she smelled SO GOOD. Hell, even when she was sweaty, dirty, just got woke up in the morning...heady scent of her body odor with the slightest tang of her sex... 
Hunter shifted in the pilot’s seat. His armor codpiece felt tight. Dammit, he NEEDED to stop getting distracted. He was supposed to be sitting watch on the ship. 
Technically Echo was to stand this shift. However, he was under the weather and now lying down like the rest of his brothers. 
Hunter could hear Crosshair breathing, Echo’s ticking mechanical heart, and smell Tech’s drool...as he slept face down with mouth open. Wreckers' snores were like a power tool, until his sleep apnea kicked in. Hunter would count the seconds unconsciously holding his own breath too...until Wrecker finally inhaled. 
Hunter inhaled deeply just thinking about it... 
...until Y/N sighed in her sleep. The sound brought his attention back to the heat and tightness in his groin. 
Cut it out Peck! Hunter internally warned his cock. 
Yes, Hunter nicknamed his pecker. And he admitted it to NO ONE! Although, he came close one time when Echo confidentially revealed to Hunter that he named his scomp. 
Oh Broody...you’re such a tight ass PRUDE! 
Hunter shot up from the chair looking around the cockpit. He SWORE he heard a whisper so close...unsure if it was outside or INSIDE HIS HEAD!!!  
KRIFF, I’m hearing things. Although, it was his THIRD consecutive day of chronic insomnia. Was he hallucinating? 
Listening again, Hunter could perceive everyone was asleep and accounted for. He sat back down. 
Broody...it’s me! Peck!!! In a strangely soft but high-pitched voice. 
Then the voice started clucking. 
Hunter spun around in the chair. He felt for CERTAIN there were NO CHICKENS on the Marauder. Shit...he REALLY needed to start taking that nasty tasting sleep medication Tech concocted.  
Finally lost my mind...was bound to eventually happen. Lack of sleep, having to look after his bonehead brothers, save Echo, and... sitting here alone in the starlit darkness. Running his hand down his face and resigned himself to having an internal discussion with his own cock. What would it hurt? Besides everyone was asleep. Let’s just go with it and see... 
Peck? Hunter called out with his mind. 
Yeah Broody? 
I’m NOT a prude. Just polite. 
Y/N is a grown ass woman, Hunter. You CAN talk to her. 
What would I say? 
She needs MORE than those furtive glances and puppy dog eyes. Show her the WOLF you are, Hunter. 
She’s our guest NOT a sex object! 
Oh...so she’s NEVER had an impure thought about YOU? 
A very feminine moan and a sigh wafted from the pallet Y/N was sleeping on the bunk room floor. She must have been having a hell of a dream...as Hunter could smell her wet arousal. 
Hunter’s cock was now becoming painful with an intense pressure against his codpiece. 
Clucking...C’mon ole boy. Would you deny yourself the opportunity of a grown woman’s consent? 
You DON’T KNOW if she even thinks about me THAT WAY! 
Oh YES I DO! 
Hunter ripped the codpiece off and threw it behind him. His girthy engorged cock staining through his blacks...and leaving a wet spot. 
Ohh...THANK FORCE you let me out! Suffocating in there!!! Clucking... 
SHUT UP! Hunter pushed his pecker down between his legs, then crossed them tightly. 
Mmhmm, hmm, mhm mmm... Muffled speech. Clucking intensified. 
DANK FERRICK! She did look at him a lot and smiled. He could sense her body reacting to him MUCH differently than his brothers. The thrumming of her presence on his senses. Something he guessed was her Force sensitivity. It would tickle his nerve endings and make him shiver...in a VERY good way. Was Y/N flirting with the Force? Hunter wasn’t exactly sure. 
But he didn’t want to take advantage and come off as a creep. 
Hunter was so caught up in his head he barely registered a rustling... 
...and swung the chair around to face... 
...Y/N standing there, blanket wrapped around her shoulders, eyes hooded in desire. 
Hunter sprang up out of the chair and his cock sprang up from between his legs. His expression was of dumb embarrassment due to all the blood rushing away from his brain. 
Her gaze lingered on his cock. Then she stared him straight in the eyes... 
...and dropped her blanket. She was buck naked. 
Hunter’s jaw dropped. Y/N giggled seductively, strolled over to Hunter and pressed everything she had up against him. 
He almost died of heart failure but managed to gently slide both hands up her back in a tender caress. 
“Are you sure???” 
“Yes, Hunter...PLEASE EAT me and FUCK me!” With that she grabbed two handfuls of his luxurious hair and devoured his mouth. 
Hunter, ever the gentleman who could follow directions to the letter, obliged her. 
Tumblr media
“Permission to FINALLY stop drooling upon the sheets? Feel like I’m still on Kamino...” Tech whispered. 
Quiet moaning from the cockpit area. 
Echo whispered back on the comm channel “Everyone, the coast is clear. Target engaged.” 
Everyone received the order via earpiece. They could now relax and drop the ruse of being asleep. 
Tech sighed, “Now I can FINALLY get in the refresher. He was spending an abnormal amount of time in there lately...”   
“Look who's talking, Mr Clean. Wrecker piped up. “Shiniest dick in the galaxy.” 
“At least Hunter cleans the cum off the shower walls.” Tech shot Wrecker a baleful stare 
“Ey, can��t help I got a big dick.” Wrecker smiled like a shithead, nodding at Tech’s crotch. “Can’t help making a BIG splash...and miss some at times.” 
“ARE YOU IMPLYING MY REPRODUCTIVE ORGAN IS LESS THAN SUFFICIENT SIZE???” 
Echo interrupted on comm, “Will the two of you QUIET THE FUCK DOWN! Our target will disengage...and Y/N will not acquire the asset!” 
Wrecker giggled, “Oh, she’s definitely acquiring that ASS-ET!” Getting louder again. 
Echo and Tech shushed him again. 
Clucking continued over the coms... 
Echo slid to the edge of his bunk and looked up. Crosshair lay on the top bunk, pillow pressed savagely over his face. He was shaking and clucking like a deranged farm fowl. 
“If I had known you’d carry on so much, would have been the voice myself. Plus, you SERIOUSLY veered off script!” Echo sneered. Wondering if he was the only one on this ship, save their guest, to have at least one brain cell. 
His musing was interrupted by much louder moans, sexual swears, and the wet slapping of flesh. 
“Engage ear protection. Sound cancelling level 10. NO eavesdropping, men. We may be feral and efficient commandos, but we STILL have some semblance of morals!” 
The clucking turned to coughing. “That’s what YOU think!” Crosshair finally got a hold of himself. 
Echo rolled his eyes and threw the covers over his head. Thankfully N/A being Force sensitive was able to help them by dampening their ambient noise to Hunter's senses and... 
...OH!  
Echo’s eyes popped open realizing...she ALSO had to give CROSSHAIR access to the mental conversation in Hunter’s head to be as effective a voice as possible! 
And... Crosshair laughed all through it like a fucking MANIAC! 
Echo sighed. That boy ain’t right....

Disgrace Chapter 4 : Crosshair x F!OC
How does one ignore the inevitable? You already know it's useless to try to avoid it, but how do you ignore its presence at your peripherals? The way it taunts you. There is absolutely nothing challenging about being stuck together on an isolated moon completely alone and cut off from the outside universe for an undisclosed amount of time. There should be plenty of wholesome ways to distract oneself... right?
Tumblr media
Chapter Specific Warnings: Nudity, Unprotected Piv, brief angst
Authors Notes: Crosshair and Tah'Nyem are like those cats who hiss and yowl at each other through a glass door but have no idea what to do once it's been opened. They chat a little about Tahny's life, love lives, and the things they refuse to talk about. Paging Medic Crosshair.
Word Count: 6700
Dynamic: Princess x Guard, Speed running Co-dependancy, A Mangy Cat and his Aggressive little Chihuahua. She's a damsel, she's in distress- she can handle it.

Chapter 4 : Aliens Talk
Tumblr media
Unbelievable.
I looked into my empty pack and the giant tear along one of its seams. 
This was designer…
I huffed and slouched back into the co-pilot chair. 
So this means everything but the inner pocket of credits was lost in the factory. Fantastic.
We had already made the jump to hyperspace, though we weren't headed straight to Ga’hah. 
Crosshair had taken a data device from a pouch and popped it into the navigation with a click. An encrypted code set a scrambled coordinate, a safe house, possibly a moon. We won't know till we get there. 
Our ship wasn't making for an extravagant trip, the partially stripped vehicle lacked any food stores and we had limited water. There were cleaning rags piled in the corners. Some crusty, tattered jackets, and a dusty pair of knee boots in the door less storage closet. The life support system was fine, but once again, freezing. 
Still. 
I got up and searched a pile of rags, picking one out that had the least amount of stains, and headed to the small sink. I wet the cloth conservatively and wiped at the dust on my face and arms, hissing as the rag passed over the scrape on my jaw where the intruder's boot had broken skin. I pulled the cloth away to eye the dark bruise that had come in. Seemed like that happened weeks ago now but it had only been about half a day. 
No medical supplies. I'll just have to tough it a while. 
The damp cloth left me more vulnerable to the cold and I would kill for a hot shower. 
And a snack. 
We had avoided saying anything for a bit now. Hunger was making us both snippy and it was safer to just avoid pushing each other's buttons in the small space. Though, I may be blaming hunger where withdrawal was a likely culprit; felt very alone with my thoughts suddenly…
I ran a little more water and rinsed my face, catching eyes watching me in the mirror when I looked up again. 
“What is it?”
I turned at his puzzled expression.
“Is that ink too?”
He gestures at the red markings and shadows around my eyes. I guess he expected it to fade like my arms. 
“A more permanent variety, yes, tattoos but it's cultural. Means I'm of age.”
He paused, but not at the insinuation.
“You have tattoos on your eyes?”
I looked at him for a moment. I admit the tats were subtle, the lines much finer than what used to be traditional. Most just assumed it was dramatic makeup. 
“...as do you?”
The air was awkward now, and I sighed. We need some food. I hope the safe house is fully stocked. 
And has running, hot water. 
I eased myself back into the co-pilot chair across from him, careful with the torn split of the tattered gown and my manifesto of growing aches and pains. I was physically active but not ‘running around blowing up factories,’ active and the extra wear and tear was catching up to me despite my conditioning. There was no spice to dull the aches and throbs and stings that plagued me. 
“Sorry.”
“Hmm.”
I looked up. 
“For what?”
“I should have let you change.”
He was eyeing my bare, scratched up thigh, though that might have been to avoid staring at the stiffened peaks beneath the thin fabric over my chest. It was always so cold on these ships.
“You're right… You should have.”
I shifted, lifting my knee to rest my foot on the cushion of the chair, letting the skirt fall away exposing the curve of my ass against the seat. 
Tumblr media
He cleared his throat and turned back to the racing field of hyperspace, shifting in his chair uncomfortably. 
Serves you right.
It was only fair he lived with the consequences. I looked over at him, pristine besides the streaks of dust here and there and contemplated getting my own set of armor. 
And I'd never leave home without it. 
The thought was glib, and mostly an attempt at amusing myself. My mind drifted to other ways to torment my captive audience. An empty can, hurtling through space. Nothing but two chairs, us, and time to kill.
… I'm just hungry. And bored. Behave. 
“So… spice?”
He broke the silence, seemingly desperate for something else to think about besides my shivering, exposed form.  
“I'm not an authority but… what about it?”
“You, uh, like it?”
“Oh, Yeah, can't deny that… it feels nice,”
“You do it a lot?”
“Not that often, The burnout is no joke, but ‘you can't run the underworld in broad daylight without knowing how to do things safely.’... so, it's fine… I know what I'm doing,”
I put on a mock tone of my father for a bit that seemed to amuse the man across from me. 
“Is that what you're doing? Cleaning up the underworld?”
“It's what my Vah’hadarr says he's doing, cleaning up the dirty side of dirty business,”
There was a little venom in that last part as I thought about the recording and the possibilities of my willful ignorance.
“It's his show…I just manage some of the actual business, It’s club and hotel and theater all in one, and it's a chore making sure it all stays legal and without political incidents,”
“Just that, huh?”
“It's a complicated trade! Mostly flimsiwork honestly, but the workers can be absolute divas when they get in a mood,”
I was on a roll now, the irritability of an empty stomach and an unhealthy amount of disassociation had me focused on the mundane topic. 
“they think because they own shares they can petition me to let them drink away all the booze and blow our spice, And Kahtzi needs to learn to not abuse her authority! The shyte she gets me into, Kriffen workplace relationships…You know, it's actually refreshing having a new set of people trying to kill me!”
I threw my hands up before resting on an arm and rubbing my forehead. 
“Who's Kahtzi?”
I was brought out of the foray into my everyday life and back to the bare cockpit.
I thought for a moment, trying to quantify Kahtzi.
“Mm, Assistant, best friend, on and off lover,”
That would have to do, it was more nuanced than that but hard to summarize. 
He made a noise that I couldn't really interpret, eventually asking:
“On?...or off?”
“Currently?”
“Guess I simplified too much. We're never really a… couple, Just… two people who take care of each other? There's not really an ‘on’ or ‘off’, we love each other but don’t really work like that… together, long term,”
A beat of silence and him patting his belt, looking for something and then giving up.
“Why not?”
I smirked a little, shooting him a look. 
“Missing the right parts,”
“There's tools for that you know,”
“Oh but those don't satisfy like flesh and blood,”
He smirked back and we fell silent again. 
Tumblr media
“How bout you, tough guy?”
“Me what?”
“Ever been in love?”
A pause as he chewed on that…
“I thought so… maybe, once or twice,”
He finally admitted. 
Cute. 
“Not at one of our houses, right? The girls can be convincing but they are paid to act like that,”
He chuckled. 
“And the boys?”
“Less convincing, that… more your thing?”
“Ah… uh, not really,”
“‘Not really’, what's that supposed to mean? Just like to look?”
“Sort of, just… some clones seem to, I just… haven't,” 
“Fascinating,”
I held my hand like it was holding a holo recorder,
“The courtship rituals of clones seems to be one of varied taste and values, furthering evidence of their individuality,”
He looked at me sideways and I felt like maybe I had gone too far.
“Sorry… I had a professor who did field studies, it's kind of a running joke between Kahtzi and I,”
I had let my guard down, and that was probably a little insensitive. I’m not too sure about clone… culture?
“Don’t be… just, seemed familiar,”
The mood had passed though and I leaned back, letting my eyes flutter shut. 
“I hope we get there soon… it's too cold to relax,”
The quiet air hung around us, thicker than before. 
~~~
I woke up, having dozed off eventually, curled up uncomfortably in the large chair. A tarp or drop cloth of some sort had been draped over me as a makeshift blanket. 
My stomach growled and a pang hit me as the acid started to flow. 
I eased my sore legs down, stretching them carefully; glad to see the fatigue hadn't grown into full on pain, and cast about for my unlikely companion.
He was bent over the console where our encryption chip was plugged in, now projecting data and instructions for our arrival. 
I padded over, my slippered feet not making much noise on the metal flooring. My hand slid to the small of his back, signaling I was there, and I leaned to look around him to the projection. 
Stifling a jump, he shifted so I could see.
We were headed to a red sun system, uninhabited. There were warnings about how much tech we used outside of the bunker, apparently any signals picked up by passerby's would be suspect. Keep the beacon on us, but abandon the ship till it's needed again. 
“So just… sit and wait?”
“Mm,”
“This seems a waste of your talents,”
“It is,”
“I once again ask…Why send you?”
“An impeccable record of self control,”
I laughed at that,
“What's so funny?”
I wasn't sure, that just seemed… wildly inaccurate. No reason to think so though, he had in fact been quiet in control of himself. 
“Is it really all that important? It can't be real that you were ordered not to sleep with me, literally…”
He shrugged giving me a look like he wasn't sure what else could be said about it.  
I scoffed at that, irritated at the confusing perimeters of the situation. 
“and to think, if they stuck me with a Reg it wouldn't have been an issue,”
“What do you mean by that?”
The question wasn't accusing, just a hint perplexed at my wording.
… Maybe I said too much. 
I sobered and straightened, trying to think of a way to side step the topic. 
“I tease, I flirt, but it's all an act… it's my job in fact, to seem available but not be, but I don't push things very far… usually, my actual cravings are…”
An enigma? Rare? A reflection of my inflated ego? Either way this is different…
I trailed off, once again too close to the truth, and retreated slightly. He was raising an eyebrow, waiting for me to finish the explanation and not realizing how dangerous it made him look to me, or perhaps, maybe he did. I deflected,
“Isn't it annoying, to have to follow such petty commands?”
Tumblr media
Turning, I wandered back towards him, lifting my arms to rest against his chest plate and leaned in close, remembering the darkness that swirled in him, in me…
How much did he see?
“You were in here, what do you think?”
He seemed to know where my mind had went, but my question appeared to bother him more than intended. There's definitely something hiding in there.  
“I think ignoring direct orders has never been an issue for you… what changed?”
We can't keep this up, without any eyes on us it seemed idiotic to keep denying ourselves. I continued, pressed to him as I was, I had to look up to catch his eyes. 
“Is the Empire really such a loving mistress?”
“...I need to be trusted,”
It was the truth, but vague enough to not answer anything. He did something… I saw it, and he's been in that swirling storm ever since. 
Was it worth it?
There was a harsh beep from the encryption chip warning that we would be dropping out of warp. 
I snapped out of the spell that had begun to fall over us and went back to sit in my chair, strapping in.  He followed shortly.
~~~
The moon under the red sun was eerily quiet. Most of the surface was water besides a few flat islands covered with coniferous pines and ferns. All that could be heard was a gentle lap of water, there were no animals, no insects… no breeze.  
The sky was a deep purple and my skin looked red under the dark filter of the alien sun. Everything else was black. The trees, the ground, the beach of smooth flat stones. 
We had been walking a while, having set down on the opposite side of the designated island as instructed, and were making our way to the bunker that should be waiting for us. Our footsteps made small shuffles and clatters as we moved down the beach, Crosshair holding the beacon out as it flashed quicker and quicker as we found our way. 
I held my tattered slippers in my hand as we picked our way along. The moon was temperate. The sun, large in the sky, cast a moderate amount of heat making the stones comfortably warm beneath my feet. 
“I wonder if it's safe to swim…”
“Should be, but I wouldn't trust it,”
I looked over the smooth expanse of water to our left. The waves were so gentle the horizon looked flat and reflective, the red ring of the sun reflecting in the inky sea. 
The beacon chirped as we came even to a path cut into the ferns and turned to follow it, eventually coming to a large metal alcove jutting from the ground. Crosshair tapped the device to a panel on the door triggering a loud mechanical whine that cracked the otherwise pristine soundscape, and the door was opening. 
Tumblr media
The first chamber was dark, the walls thick and insulating. We walked a ramp downward, about twenty paces, before coming to another barrier. 
This door clicked and a blue light illuminated the space, scanning us from floor to ceiling. 
“Welcome. Tah’nyem Ra. And. Companion.”
There was a loud swish and we were let into a small, furnished apartment. The kitchenette and living area were equipped with the usual amenities. Thick ventilation and a bank of carbon scrubbers were recessed by the door, explaining the thickness of the walls.
How well can that actually scrub all the emissions? Where do they go?
With a small electric hum, the lights came on warm and low, and a screen flashed over the couch projecting a feed of the surface. It was all rather lush, despite its size, fine fabric and intricate metal work everywhere you looked. 
A low whistle came from beside me and I turned to look at the soldier, not seeming too out of place against the black tones and shadowy aesthetic of the safe house furnishings.
“This’ll do,”
I dropped my tattered bag to the floor where it hit with a clunk, the credits and old boots from the shuttle landing hard on the tile, and made for the kitchen. 
Please please please
Popping the pantry I laughed in relief as I took in the rows of food stores. Nothing too fancy but it was more than enough for two people to live fat and happy for a while. 
I grabbed two packages and headed to the rehydrator tucked on the wall, catching Crosshair's profile still standing awkwardly by the couch. 
“Relax, Commander, Mission accomplished,”
“Not yet, we still have to get you home,”
He looked at the data stick in his hand, now quiet and dark. It would blink again once new arrangements have been made for me. Which, if my parents left the same day using civilian travel plans…
“We could have days before Vah’hadarr lands on Ga’hah,”
And who knows how long he wants me underground…
“Go on, take a shower or something, you earned it… and probably need it,”
Turning back to prepping food, I popped the packages open and tossed them into the machine, hitting the appropriate buttons so that it started humming softly. 
Crosshair hadn't made much progress, now casting his eyes about the clean, black living room and down to his guns and armor dusted in brilliant red sand. I rolled my eyes, wondering what had him so… of kilter.
“Just put it by the door, someone will probably clean and restock this place later,”
He jerked into motion and started stacking his things by the door frame, pieces of armor plating coming off in loud clacks against the hum of the cooking food. 
I leaned against the counter and eyed the sleek under suit that was emerging from beneath the plates. 
Doesn't take much imagination from there does it…
He moved to remove the belt and codpiece and I turned swiftly to look at the humming rehydrator instead. 
Well that was unlike me…
What is this? Blossoming respect?
Ugh, gotta get rid of that…
Out of the corner of my eye I traced his movements as he crossed my peripheral and into the back room of the bunker. 
I checked the timer on the food and followed, waiting a moment to hear the water start in the fresher before leaning against the door. 
“Hey, pass me your body suit, I'm sure there's a washer in here,”
There wasn't a reply but it wasn't because he didn't hear me.
“It's okay, I'll find a robe or something while you wash,”
A few seconds and the door opened, him in a towel, avoiding my gaze and holding out the black suit.
Tumblr media
I took it and the door zipped shut again, quickly. 
There was a closet next to the refresher door and I clicked it open. More towels. Next cabinet had two robes hung inside and I grabbed them both turning back to the fresher and hung one on a hook near the frame, taking the other for myself as I padded back into the short hall. 
There were two bunks opposite the door to the room and another thin door. I opened it to find the expected utilities, tossing the body suit in. Listening to make sure the shower was still running I stripped out of my tattered nightgown and tossed it in as well. 
Wishing I hadn't let him go first, I slipped the robe on, committed to filling my belly anyways. Which,
A beep could be heard from the kitchenette and I wandered back to retrieve my much needed calories, taking the two rolls from the machine and finding a plate to leave one out for Crosshair. I took a bite out of mine and savored the protein and grains, though they could use a bit more seasoning, I was starving. I eyed Cross’s portion and grabbed two more packs from the cupboard. 
That is not gonna be enough.
The faint sound of running water stopped and I scarfed down the rest of my food, eager to shower myself. 
My pace towards the bedroom faltered as the door opened and the tall clone hesitantly emerged, the gray waffle knit doing about as much to hide his frame as the tight black under suit. 
I glanced down at his exposed calves and marveled at their definition for a moment.
“Uh, there's food on the table, more cooking if you're still hungry,”
I pushed past him into the room, wedging him out and shut the door. 
Days shut in alone together and I'm supposed to behave myself. Be’llahl, what did I do to deserve this?
I knew what I did. 
I looked through the rest of the storage and found some silk button ups and trousers. Nothing my size. I checked a few more drawers, but the only female clothing I found were skimpy lingerie pieces. Sighing, I grabbed one of the large shirts and made for the fresher. 
Kriffs sake Vah'hadarr, you sure you don't want me shacking up with soldiers?
Be'llahl or not, I wanted nothing to do with thoughts on why my father's safe house was stocked with such sundries.
The water was already warm, and I stepped into the spray with a relieved groan.
My scrapes and scratches stung as the water flowed over them and I liberally coated myself with soap, feeling like the dust and sweat might never come off. 
At least it's decent stuff. 
My mind drifted as the creamy suds rinsed off of me. Mostly to the brief flash of Crosshair, framed in the door in nothing but a towel. I hadn't really processed the visual but now that I was clean and undistracted by hunger it came back in a vivid assault. 
Two days?... At least. Does today count?
I turned the handle, cutting off the warm stream and stood in the stall, letting the water bead and run down my skin, enjoying the feeling of it a moment before reaching for the towel. 
Finally dry, I carefully slipped on the black dress shirt. It was the style my father wore, the slim cut almost framing my torso, and fell to about mid thigh, reminding me how short I was compared to most Ga’haiians. I thought about rolling up the sleeves but the material fought me on it so they stayed long.
I hung my towel next to the other damp cloth already drying next to the door and stepped back out into the bedroom, catching my reflection in the mirror. 
I'd say the look was seductive, if it wasn't for the bruises and scratches that patterned my exposed legs, the oversized article hanging off my hips in a way that complimented my slim build.
Well, better than lingerie…
Wandering out to the living area I found Cross at the counter on one of the stools, halfway through the third roll and cleaning the smaller of his guns. 
He looked up from his task, eyes traveling from exposed knees to my dripping hair as he took another bite.  
What the kriff now?
I rocked from heel to toe a few times in the awkward seconds, but he was pushing away the cloth his work was organized on and tapped the stool closest to him before finishing the rest of his food. 
Closing the distance at an unsure pace, I slid onto the bar stool indicated and he pulled over another box. He had found the medical kit, popping it open now to retrieve a canister of bacta spray. 
“Oh, I can do that myse-”
He shot me a look and I shut up as he cupped my chin to examine the bruised abrasion on my jawline. 
A warm sensation spread over the wound as he carefully applied the slimy substance. 
“How did you manage to take such a beating…”
The wonder came under his breath as he moved the fabric from my shoulder, pinching a gash together and applying more spray. 
“I can handle a little pain… enjoy it even-” 
I winced, letting free a small whimper as he lifted my sore leg and assessed the damage there. 
Tumblr media
“That I can believe,”
A sigh, more spray. 
“Some escort I turned out to be…”
“Don't sweat it, I'm breathing, even have both arms still in the sockets…”
Our eyes met briefly before he finished and set my leg back onto the foot rest of the stool. 
“Those should be healed by morning,”
“Well, thanks doc, what would I do without you,”
He snorted dryly and pulled his gun back, patting at his waist, making a face like he forgot he was in a bathrobe. 
Oh!
I got up and started opening drawers in the kitchen. Finding a little box by the cutlery marked in Ga'haiian.
I triumphantly pulled out a couple travel vials of toothpicks, and rolled them across the counter where he was still perched. They were gratefully snatched up, one quickly finding its way between his teeth. He leaned into his work with more enthusiasm now that he could concentrate and I slipped a few more vials into my bag's inner pocket, moving it from where it was still discarded on the floor.
Wonder when he managed to lose them.
At least he was keeping himself busy; it was my turn to figure out how to spend the time now that my creature comforts had been met. Well, most of them.
Finally free to really roam about the space I realized there wasn't a lot to look at. The living area was made up of a low, deep couch made of a soft black leather, a console with speakers beneath the false window, and another screen housing facing the couch. The kitchenette was barely a hallway, separated from the rest of the space by the thin island counter Crosshair was leaning over. Then the short passage with bunks and utilities to one side and the proper room with the refresher on the other. 
The bunker had no access to the outside holonet, its system self contained and concealed from any scans or probing. This meant all entertainment was limited to whatever was preloaded into the base's memory. 
I scrolled through the holopad, reading through the meager selection of games, films, and music. There… wasn't much. 
Wonderful, we can spend our time playing cards.
I selected an old Diva Shaliqua track and the hypnotic tones of the Theelin’s voice poured from the speakers, making the space more familiar and inviting. 
I turned to Crosshair gesturing to the speakers, and he nodded approval. 
“You a fan of the Divas?” 
“Not really a fan of anything,”
“Mm… Kahtzi’s related you know, not that that's saying much, I think all Theelin are related at this point,”
Kahtzi was a human Theelin hybrid, and would have been rather difficult to meet if I hadn't attended such a prestigious university. There were only about a million or so left in the galaxy. 
There were nested cabinets all around the room and I popped them open systematically, checking their contents. Most were empty, but one contained a few soft knit blankets. I carried one back to the couch and sank into it, pulling the knit tight around me. 
Exhaustion was catching up to me quickly, the nap on the tiny shuttle didn't do much in the way of rest. The warm living room and soft music were lulling me into a state of true relaxation.
It wasn't long till my eyes grew too heavy to keep open, and I fell into a deep sleep. 
~~~
Where's that cultural dress I had made for the meeting, Tah’nyem? 
No it's not revealing
That's the style, li’ha, the clients appreciate the care we pay to their customs.
… 
Wear. It. 
It was dark when I opened my eyes again, the stereo and most of the lights turned off. 
I couldn't see Crosshair, but I could hear his breathing in the direction of the bunks. It didn't take long for me to figure that that was what woke me. The breathing was labored, almost panting, irregular. I got up with my blanket and tip-toed over to the hall to check on him. 
As suspected, his eyelids were twitching rapidly and a sheen of sweat glinted in the remaining light spilling over from the kitchen. I thought about waking him, but the brown eyes fluttered open on their own. He looked disoriented for a moment, but quickly refocused on me standing near the foot of the bunk. 
“What are you doing?”
I sat next to his knees. 
“Just seeing what the fuss is about, you remember what you were dreaming?”
He was quiet for a while. 
“No,”
It was a lie. 
“You know, if you were to talk about the shadows that swim behind those eyes… who would be safer than someone you'll know so briefly?”
That didn't seem to placate him, but he forced himself into something resembling ease. 
“It’s… I'm fine,”
Tumblr media
I reached over and took his hand, turning it to massage the palm as I had on the transport only a day or so ago and the ease seeped into him, becoming real. 
“You want to go back to sleep?”
“No,”
Genuine this time. 
“Me neither…”
I cast my eyes about the space, now feeling stiflingly small. 
“Come on,”
I tugged his arm, getting up from the bunk and letting my blanket fall to the floor. 
“Where, exactly?”
“Let's get some fresh air,”
“Prince-... Tah’Nyem, we have to stay within the walls,”
It was the first time he had used my name rather than the more derogatory form of endearment and it sounded wrong in its formality. 
“Tahny,”
“What?”
“Call me Tahny… my full honorific feels… too heavy on your lips,”
No one really called me that anymore other than my mother, but…
“We have to stay inside… Tahny,”
My heart fluttered. The childhood nickname sounded different, colored by his voice, and it only spurred my resolve. 
“Anything a scanner can pick up has to stay down here, empty your pockets and it'll be fine,”
He still resisted. 
“They can scan for life forms…”
“The trees will throw them off,”
I turned, still holding his hand, to be even with him sitting up on the bunk. 
“Please, Crosshair?”
Since we're on a first name basis now…
A little tremor went through him and he sighed, moving to get up but pulling his hand from mine to close the robe that had come undone while he slept. 
Together, we left the mechanical hums and whines of the bunker doors, making our way back out into the dark, red stained landscape. 
The sun was positioned differently, but nothing else had changed since we had passed through hours ago. The rocks were warm on my bare feet, and the water lapped softly against the surreal, black backdrop of stones and trees. 
I could feel his wary presence, calm but untrusting, scanning the horizon. He had grabbed his rifle, and now held it lazily to his side while he took in the alien moon. 
Turning back to the sea, I breathed deeply, expecting to smell salt, but all that came to me was the vaguely green scent of ferns. How good it felt to be outside. 
“I've never seen a world like this, have you?”
“Red suns I've seen, but like this? Not… exactly,”
“New for both of us then?”
A noise of affirmation. 
I stood a moment, taking it in, breathing the fresh air and toying with the buttons of the shirt I was draped in. 
“I wonder what else we have in common…”
I didn't need to use much imagination, having been forcibly dragged through each other's minds. We're both filled with dark, swirling thoughts of people not their own. An ever growing resentment for being perceived, thoughts racing in an ever tightening circle of how to be free of… well, everything.
Death wish?
It seemed like an accurate label, and its hold was on both of us. We flirt with danger in different ways… but we were just begging for one instance, one moment, where maybe the danger will win. End the torture, the loneliness. Give us our freedom. All it took was once. Was one bad decision really better than another?
“Put your gun down.”
“No,”
A pause of consideration,
“Why?”
“You won't need it.”
A moment passed as he fought with abandoning his physical sense of security. Eventually, I heard him put the stock on the ground, apparently leaning it against one of the trees at the edge of the narrow beach. 
With a deft hand, I worked the buttons down my shirt free of their clasps and let the fabric fall with a slither onto the warm stones. 
“Tahny!”
Alarm in his voice. 
“Quiet.”
Tumblr media
The command made him rock back from whatever action he meant to take to end this. 
I turned to look over my shoulder. He was only a few paces away, transfixed in a sort of befuddled way. 
“Why do we give them everything?”
“W-what?”
“Everyone else. Those who control us, own us as you will, just… accepting that if they decide to change our lives, abandon us, use us, it's in their power to do so, and yet- what do they let us have for ourselves? What do they think of us?… they don't even see us,”
He didn't answer, I didn't need him to. 
“Listen… you can walk away, go inside, forget this and me the moment we part ways,”
A long moment of nothing but the lap of water…
“..or?”
It was so quiet. I turned and slowly closed the distance, pressing against him, feeling how tense he suddenly was. 
Tumblr media
“You can help me remember this beautiful night in a way that would always be ours,”
His breath was carefully even. 
I looked into his eyes, pleading. 
“How many times will you throw yourself at death till it finally snags you? Would you really go off to die without having me? Never knowing…”
He still teetered on the edge of duty and reason but had run out of excuses. His eyes darkened as I reminded him of our grim realities, stoking an anger that reflected what was burning through my core. I kept pushing,
“I don't know how you work but for me… it would be torture to never know you,”
Tumblr media
I had my answer when his arms snaked around me, crushing me to him as his mouth found mine, clamping to me with a sudden, desperate hunger; Ravenous to take, to have, to fight back in a way that would bring a smile to Be'llahl.
Hands running over his chest in return, I slipped the robe from his shoulders helping him to catch up to my nudity. 
His fingers roved down my hips, giving my ass a firm squeeze before he carefully lowered himself to the ground pulling me into his lap, never breaking the kiss that was slowly consuming us in flames of lust and hidden rage. 
I moaned into his mouth in need as I felt his cock stiffening against my thighs. Taking him in hand, I felt the weight of him, the length against my wrist as I gripped the base. I couldn't wait much longer. 
“Please, Crosshair…”
My flesh was on fire, his hands on me sending waves of tingles to my brain churning me into a sensitive mess. He stroked his fingers up my spine and I arched against him with a gasp. Using my free hand to cup his neck, thumb caressing the edge of the ragged scar over his ear, he took the opportunity to bite at a nipple that had come in range. 
This earned him another pitiful moan and I stroked his length wanting it inside of me. 
With a low growl he gathered my arms and held them behind my back easily with one hand. The other slid over my hip and down between my legs, gently caressing the tender petals he found there making me tremble as he coaxed the slickness of my arousal to drip onto his waiting member. 
Tumblr media
He moaned low, the same need consuming him, and he guided himself to my entrance. There was no resistance as he lowered me down to take him fully, pulling me into him till he was sheathed in me, grinding against my slick and swollen lips. 
We both sighed in relief before our mouths met again, less frantic now. Taking the time to explore the sensation of us, pulling back only to look at each other, bodies now interlocked. He was beautiful beneath me, naked and drenched in red light…
I squeezed my thighs. Rocking myself on his lap, desperate for some friction, he tightened his grip on my wrists. His other arm wrapped around me firmly but he was letting me take the lead. Cross’s lips gently brushed my forehead creating a strange juxtaposition with the rough, dominant hold around my bucking hips. 
The stones under my knees shifted with me as I rode him, his hands guiding my bouncing body. He was trembling, but focused, not wanting this to end too soon. I could feel the pleasure shifting into something more wild as I reached the first threshold. He pulled me down onto him suddenly, slamming into me, driving me over the waiting edge. 
The climax took me quickly, days of tension making me easy quarry, and my knees squeezed his hips as I let out a strangled cry, any other thoughts forcibly scrubbed from my brain as I shook in his hold. My desire was only deepening. I was starting to fear the physical contact wasn't going to be enough any more. I wanted him in my mind again, clawing against my soul. 
“Look at me,”
My eyes fluttered open, not realizing I had closed them. I drank in his face, the rapture in it, the red sun reflected in his eyes. 
This will have to do…
He let go of my arms, letting his left hand drift to my hip while his right trailed up to my neck, holding it gently as he laid back onto the stones. He thrusted up, increasing the power from below. 
The scoop of my hips became violent as I met each of his strokes, arms now free to use his chest  for balance. I dug my fingertips into the firm pecs as pleasure pushed the sense from me; It escaped in wispy moans that carried across the rippling water. It didn't take long for another orgasm to rip through me, harder this time. My muscles clamped down on him threatening to push him free as I cried out, echoing into the quiet, alien night.
I didn't dare look away. With him holding my neck, I couldn't if I wanted to. It was all intensity rolling off of him and a rumbling through his breastbone, pleased with my writhing form holding his eyes so desperately.
Tumblr media
“Oh Cross… li’nen, you feel so good,”
The world was spinning, he shifted us, skillfully flipping to be on top of me. My back pressed into the warm stones and I adjusted, wrapping my legs around his hips as he continued with careful, measured humping. 
No… that's not right.
“Don't, ah! hold back,”
His rhythm faltered but he didn't change pace. 
“I don't want to, ha-hurt you,”
“It's okay… I can take it, just… I want it all Cross-hah, give me everything,”
He took a deep, shaking breath… then roughly thrust into me. His chest pinned me as he scooped forward in a full bodied motion taking up a slower, harder rhythm.
I hadn't realized how much he had been restraining himself and I groaned at the new force. It took a moment to acclimate before becoming comfortable. I remembered what was said about his enhanced strength…
I'll have more bruises tomorrow for sure,
The thought was wiped clean as my body shuddered with each hammering thrust, any jolt of pain becoming pleasure as it was lost in the labyrinth of my quivering nerves. All I could do was wrap my arms and legs tighter about him. 
I was getting close again. Listening to his soft grunts as he ravaged me was just as erotic as the physical sensation. It felt like I was floating, eyes glazed, no longer capable of much sound at all. I clung to him, his breath, his heartbeat, the only thing that was real anymore. 
A gasp finally escaped me as everything became brighter. I claimed his lips again as I came, nails biting into his back and legs locking about his hips as my muscles flexed against him wanting him as deep as possible.
It was finally too much for him and his breath caught as he lost the battle with his own pleasure. He pressed back against me, letting my knees pull him deeper as he twitched inside, wracked in his own orgasm, a soft groan against my lips,
“Tahny…”
Before he collapsed over me. The hormones fled, leaving him spent and panting. 
I stroked his back as he rested his forehead against mine and we breathed heavily… together, reduced to our most vulnerable forms. 
Two frightened children, lost and adrift on the edge of the galaxy, grasping for a friend in the dark.
