do you happen to have a step by step of the froggies by chance? i am very bad at following textual instructions and i cant find anyone who might have done a step by step haha
@burakhovskys i can try to make a step by step post! it may be sort of long but definitely watch out for one as i'd be happy to further explain!!!
Ok so this is going to take a couple posts cuz last time i tried to post after i had all my info in and it deleted everything when i hit the reblog button đĽ´
Without further a do
The Frog Tutorial
(Part 1)
1. First have all your cutouts ready!!!
you can choose at this stage to sew the eyes on or you can wait to position them how you want on the face, Iâm doing it later, so that part of the tutorial will be addressed in another installment.
(Im using white thread so its easier to see how i sew)
2. Put one of the sides on top of the belly piece, lining up their nose tips in the center.
3. Stick your needle through the top of the side piece through the belly piece, pull the thread through, and loop back around to the top to sew how i do, keep repeating until you reach the arm!
4. For the arms/legs youll want to make sure in these crevices (circled in green) are sewn 2-3 times to make sure the fabric is secure and no holes open up, do this with every crevice!
5. After that sew all the way down to the almost the middle of the butt but leaving space in the middle just as the og pattern suggests.
6. Clip off the excess thread after this since we will have to start sewing in a different area in the next part.
7. Line up the side pieces together, using the tips of their faces to line up the back sides
8. Start sewing again in the middle of the back end of the pieces, not all the way at the bottom where they would meet the belly piece,, otherwise the frog will have a concave ass.
9. Once youve sewn up all the back to the front the face pieces should line up, here you will just need to get as close to the belly piece then sew through to the belly piece to start doing the rest of the frog
10. Once you get to the back of the front leg, tie it off so its not getting in the way, and then were going to flip the frog inside out.
11. To get the feets out just push them using a somewhat skinny but blunt object so they stick out like this
NOW WERE GONNA DO EYES!
12. To do the eyes, push the needle through the inside to the outside after rethreading it and making sure it has a really good knot,
13. After its through pull the thread all the way through till it hits the knot and then skewer the pompom thru the middle, pushing it all the way down till it rests on the head.
14. After its on the head, pierce the pompom again and back through the interior, here you can flip the frog inside out and sew a little through the interior of the fleece and tie a knot so its secure, or you can sew the pompom a couple more times to make it more attached to the head.

*~*~*~*
The 5A station was the closest one to your dorm. It had no seats or shelter of any kind in case of bad weather, only a large blue sign that said Yorknew University, Nursing Program in white bold letters â because it didnât say anything else about the buses that stopped by and because this stop is surrounded by old rotting trees, the drivers sometimes fail to notice you.
Itâs raining now, and everything here is so dark â your clothes, your umbrella, the night sky, and your bag.
Your phone says the bus will be here any minute now, but will it even see you?
If not, youâll have to find a different way to make it to Nobunagaâs place.
He seemed friendly enough. If you were a few minutes late, surely heâd understand. You were not close enough to invite him over, go inside his home, or let him drive you anywhere, though that is just how you are with all males you casually know. Itâs nothing personal.
There are two bright lights a small distance away, and at the sight you raise your hand and wave.
By some miracle, the bus stops and opens its automatic doors.
You take a few steps as you close your umbrella and make your way up the stairs, being careful not to slip. You slip a few quarters into the little slot beside the driver and sit down on a seat near the window.
Taking off your hood, you ruffle your wet bangs out of your face, using your reflection to attempt to get them back to looking presentable. It doesnât really work, but what does it matter? Youâre just there to give Nobunaga some notes his friends wanted to give to him and leave.Â
*~*~*~*
âYouâre [First], correct?â Chrollo asks, putting his right hand out towards you.
You take out your earbuds, fixing your posture as you nod. A blonde man sits next to you on the bench before Chrollo could, smiling and giggling like he is some gossiping schoolgirl.
âDang, youâre cute!â Shalnark exclaims.Â
âShal, what the hell are you doing?â Uvogin had started to stomp over. His mere size was enough to keep your eyes on him and not the others. Even the one girl who was with them didnât draw your attention, despite her hair being unnaturally bright pink.
âSaying hi!â Shalnark put an arm around you. On instinct, you squirm a little bit, not noticing how Uvogin rolled his eyes in response to how Shalnark smirked at him. Once you were out of his loose grip, Chrollo politely cleared his throat.
âI was wondering if you could do something for us, Miss [First]. For the gang, I mean.âÂ
The gang? From what you knew, Chrolloâs group was always causing some sort of rule-breaking but Chrollo himself stayed at the top of the class with superb grades and plenty of attention from girls. It is like no one knew they were connected. They seemed like bad news, but all of your interactions with them had been positive thus far. Did Nobunaga put in the good word for you?
âUm⌠sure?â As long as it was something that didnât land you in prison or the hospital, you decide to go along with what Nobunagaâs leader asks of you. It is probably a bad idea to reject, and maybe youâll get something good out of it in exchange.
âIâd like you to give Nobunaga some notes he missed. Heâs been out. Sick, most likely.â You didnât notice the small piles of books he was carrying until he made them closer to you, wanting you to take them. âSurely you have noticed? He talks to you a lot, I hear.â
âYeah.â You decide to put them on your lap for the time being. The notes werenât as heavy as they would have been if you were carrying them. âIs⌠he doing better?â
âNot sure,â Uvogin says, attempting to pry Shalnark off the bench. âHe hasnât been answering his phone, you see.â
âI donât wanna!â Shalnark whines.
âShut up, Shal. Youâre gonna make us look bad in front of Nobuâs girlfriend.â
Girlfriend?
âIâm⌠not his girlfriendâŚâ
They donât seem to hear you. Youâre not exactly the loudest person, after all. You have been teased for having a soft voice and having to speak up. These people wouldnât ignore you, you think. Shalnark and Uvogin are play fighting, and Chrollo is talking to that magenta-haired woman. They wouldnât ignore you, youâre just being too shy. They wouldnât ignore you, they are Nobunagaâs friends. Nobunaga wouldnât ignore you, why would they?
âIâm⌠not his girlfriend.â
Uvogin is the only one to give you a response after hearing it. He shoots you a confused look before continuing to tickle Shalnark. No one else seems to notice your words.
After a few more tries, you decide to give up for now. Looking at the notebooks in front of you, you decide to open the top one up. There are just standard mathematical problems as well as some doodles and words of encouragement in the vacant spaces of the looseleaf.Â
âGo get them, tiger!â
âDonât die on me now!â
âRemember one plus one?â
ââĄâĄâĄâĄâĄâĄâĄâĄâĄâĄâ
At first, you think that it is Nobunagaâs girlfriend, but you shake your head to erase it. No. The gang thinks you are his girlfriend.Â
Perhaps Shalnark then? From the times you sat near him in your chemistry classes, his handwriting was a mess. It took some effort to realize that he was simply drawing and not paying attention to the professor in the slightest. However, his favorite things to draw were bats and computers. Would he really draw hearts and not those things so Nobunaga could know it was him?Â
Maybe it was an inside joke. Youâre not going to ask because you donât want your question to come off as disrespectful, though you were slightly curious.
Youâll just do what you were told and go right back home.
*~*~*~*
Shalnark texted you the address of Nobunagaâs place a few hours ago, but if you were being honest it took a while to decipher what he was saying. In between every five or so memes or videos he sent you there was a number or letter, maybe three at most if you were lucky.
You sat there with your phone in your hands for what felt like forever, not having the guts to ask Shalnark to just tell you straight up â because he wouldnât, you know that.
From what you managed to gather from your online map, it seemed that Nobunagaâs place and Uvoginâs place were near each other, no more than a fifteen-minute walk at most. If they lived so close to each other, why didnât one of them just visit the other? That was the third red flag you didnât say anything about⌠and came to regret only half an hour later.
The electric sign attached to the entrance of the bus flickered from time to time with varying degrees of brightness. One person complained openly to the driver that the screen was so dark they did not know that they had missed their dormitoryâs building. He didnât care, only shrugging his shoulders and telling the student that âthatâs lifeâ. They got off murmuring curses you could hear from the middle part of the bus. Once again, he didnât care. Like Shalnark, the driver wouldnât take anything you say seriously; so you just used your online map to count the stops ahead.
âHey.â
âNext stop: Aster Road, Thirds Street.â The automated message from the bus speakers loudly said, glitching a little after the word âRoadâ.
âHey.âÂ
You failed to notice who was behind you as you were too busy counting the stops ahead on your phone.
âHey.â
âNext stop: Ritas Street, Wilds Complex.â
âHey.â
âNext stop: Neo Road, Neon Green.â
âHey.â
âNext stop: Romeos Road, Kiki Terrace.â
âHey.â
âNext stop-â
You failed to hear the name of the stop because the hand that tapped your shoulder startled you and made you turn your neck around to the seat behind you.
You see a familiar face despite the fading light â or should you say, a familiar body.
âO-Oh⌠hi⌠Uvogin.â
Satisfied you had finally noticed him, Uvogin puts his hands behind his head as he smirks.Â
âFancy seeing you so late,â he begins, looking down at your black bag. âGoing to Nobuâs place, ainâtcha?â
âYeah⌠you?â
âBasketball.â
Was Uvogin on the team too? If you remember correctly it was only Phinks, Feitan, and Nobunaga who were on it. Perhaps he just wanted to watch? Oh well. Itâs not any of your business.
After remembering your last conversation with him yesterday, you decide to ask him why everyone thinks you are Nobunagaâs girlfriend â you only talked to him when necessary, in the classes you shared with him, but to be fair he also escorted you around the building most days.
âListen⌠about that timeâŚâ
âWhat?â Uvogin turns his head, cupping his ear with his hand. âSpeak up.â
âAbout Nobunaga and meâŚâ You look down â at the books, at your cold wet hands, at the heels of your feet bouncing up and down. Your gut tells you that youâre making a mistake if you talk to him about you and Nobunagaâs relationship, or lack thereof. Your brain goes against it, saying that clearing things up will lead to less trouble down the line.Â
Your heart is beating too fast to accept or reject the possibility.Â
âNobunaga and meâŚâ
âYouâre still talking too low,â Uvogin interrupts, his stare near-lethal to you. When you flinch at his words, his annoyance seems to disappear. âHey, you can tell me. Weâre friends, arenât we?â
Yeah. Yeah, youâre friends or at least acquaintances. Saying the truth wonât hurt him and wonât hurt you. Maybe Shalnarkâs teasing will go away. Maybe Chrollo wonât give you a task again. Maybe Nobunaga wonât be confused when he comes back to school.
âNobunaga and me⌠arenât dating-â
Uvoginâs expression changing wasnât as fast as before, but his glare intensified as he stood up.
âNext stop: Nightstar Avenue, Owlâs Place.â
Your ears felt numb after you heard the âbeepâ sound of someone pressing the stop button. Your eyes felt numb as you tried to see the details of Uvoginâs scowl in the dark.
It was Uvogin. He made the bus stop. But why?
It then hits you; this is the closest stop to Nobunagaâs place.
âStop requested.â The speaker stated. The bus started to pull over next to a tall blue sign.
âWoah, the bus got here so quickly,â Uvogin says, going to the exit doors. When he didnât hear you stand up too, he turned in your direction. âDonât tell me you donât know the directions to your boyfriendâs house?â
âPlease exit through the rear door.â Another automated message. Uvogin presses on the door and it lets him out. After a few more seconds you follow him â your gut tells you that you must.
He helps you down with his much larger hands despite you not really needing it â there are handrails on the doors for that.
âWhat were you saying?â Uvogin asks. âSomething about Nobunaga?â
There is a lit street lamp above the sign. It doesnât flash like the ones near your dormitory and is much brighter. Despite the weather still being stormy, you can see houses a small distance away â not just the street.Â
You can see that Uvogin is smiling again.
âNothing⌠Itâs nothing.â
âOh?â He sneers, his smirk getting even bigger. âYou didnât want relationship advice?â
âNoâŚâ You reply, your hands going to your backpackâs zipper to make sure the notes donât get too wet.
âNobunaga likes mochi. Maybe you can get some for him next time. Daifuku especially. Heâd be so happy, maybe heâll stop skipping class with me.âÂ
A sigh comes out of both of you at the same time for much different reasons.Â
âBut I donât want that to happen⌠hmm.â
*~*~*~*
The outside of Nobunagaâs house wasnât the house that stood out the most in this neighborhood. It had rather small walls that had peeling white paint in places closer to the ground, and cigarettes and used needles were thrown all over his dead lawn. The only thing you somewhat liked was the rusty gold sign beside the front door that read 251 â and only for the styling of the numbers.
âHereâs the place,â Uvogin says, patting your back as a way to gently push you forward. âGo on, doorbell's right there.â
You were forced up the steps with a force you knew was gentle for Uvogin but not for you. A trembling finger approaches the button slowly â as if using it would make you lose it via a guillotineâs blade.
Doing so didnât because this is reality, but the pain in your heart feels similar to such a fate anyway. After a few more seconds and the door still being closed, Uvogin knocks loudly.
â[First]âs here!â His yell almost made you cry.
Your name may as well have been the password because Nobunaga opens the door right away. He pants a little like he was running to greet you two.
âOh fuck, you made it! I thought the storm woulda scared you away.â
Nobunaga didnât look very sick; he wasnât wearing a shirt, had his hair down, and only his boxers covered his lower half. He didnât look very sick; he actually looked quite well. Those signs scared you more than Uvoginâs subtle threat â if his glaring was intended to be such, that is. You donât step past the doorway, leaving Uvogin to stand in the rain as you take off your backpack. But when you try to undo the zipper, you feel both of their hands touching you up and down as their grins widen.
âStop that,â You murmur, attempting to step back. Your spine was greeted by Uvoginâs front half. You feel something pressing into you. Once you figured out what it was, you started to go under one of Uvoginâs arms. His leg caged you in then.
âSheâs cute, Nobu.â
Nobunaga doesnât answer in words â he only chuckles and continues to have his hands resting on your hips.
âListen. Your notes are here, Hazama.â You say, making an effort to still be nice, to still be understanding. You donât want to scream because what if youâre misreading something? You donât want anyone to⌠be framed for something they didnât do, right?
âItâs Nobunaga.â
âHuh?â
âCall me Nobunaga,â Youâre pushed and pulled more. Before you can blink, youâre thrown on the couchâs back. Uvogin is the one who lets go of you and the one who locks the front door, Nobunaga is too busy feeling the back of your thighs. âIâm your boyfriend â itâs normal to call each other by our first names, right?â
Boyfriend?
Was⌠Was heâŚ
Was he the one who told his gang youâre dating?
âI missed you, baby.â He murmurs, leaning down and pecking your neck.Â
He doesnât seem to note how youâre trembling now.
âStop.âÂ
Uvogin simply gets closer. He doesnât touch you, but he crosses his arms smirking as he leans against the sofaâs frame.
âStop,â You repeat, trying to push Nobunaga harder off of you.
Itâs not an order either of them recognize, so Uvogin continues to stare and Nobunaga continues to kiss your body.
âStop!â Your tone makes Uvogin slightly shift. He frowns and his arms uncross.Â
He takes a few steps towards you.Â
âNobunaga.â Uvoginâs voice is cold now, like how it was when you were about to get off the bus. You freeze. Nobunaga doesnât stop â he doesnât even look at Uvogin. âNobunaga.â
âStop, Haz-â
âWatch it.â Uvogin glares at you. âItâs âNobunagaâ for you.â
Heâs not⌠Heâs not going to help you?
âYeah.â Nobunaga agrees, pulling you further into his embrace.
âLet go of me!â You snap and push harder than you did before â and manage to finally ply him off of you.
Nobunaga stares down at you. He is now still. He doesnât blink. His smile has slightly faded, but it is still there. There are subtle movements in his hands. His fingers are curled up. They want to grab something again.
They want to grab you.
âDonât joke around like that, princess,â Nobunaga finally says, taking a few steps too close to you. âNot many guys are willing to forgive their girl for pushing them away like that. You almost screamed my ears off.â
âIâm not joking!â
âYou are.â Uvogin interrupts, stomping his feet. âYou are and I am starting to get annoyed. What about you, Nobu?â
âIâm just here to give notes Lucilfer told me to give to Hazama! Iâm not here for anything else.â
Nobunagaâs gaze lingers on your backpack for a few silent moments after you say that. âReally⌠nothing else?âÂ
âNo, sheâs here to cheer you up, Nobu,â Uvogin says, attempting to give a warm smile to his best friend. âSheâs⌠just shy.â
The glare he gives you when Nobunagaâs eyes arenât on him makes you feel like you are about to see God.
â...Right, [First]?â
You donât respond right away, but Nobunaga does. He giddily smiles like a child on Christmas morning.
âOh, you!â
He hugs you â his skin feels akin to slime and his hair clings onto your neck in little bunches. You feel unbrushed knots and his heart beating fast with adrenaline. When your own heart mimics the motion, Nobunaga thinks you are simply being shy â Uvogin had once again fed his delusions.
âShe brought you the notes you missed. Even wrote a few cute lines in the blank spots.â Uvogin smirks as you look at him in horror. âShe wanted me to come with her. Was anxious about missing your bus stop, sweet thing.â
He walks over to your backpack and grips onto the zipper. You attempt to stop him, walking a bit forward and trying to raise your hand, but Nobunagaâs grip is too strong. Within only a few seconds, the stack of notebooks Chrollo had given you is in Uvoginâs hands. He opens a page and starts reading aloud the cute notes someone else had written.
âGo get them, tiger.âÂ
He turns to another page.Â
âDonât die on me now.â
Then another.
âRemember one plus one?â
Then another.
âA whole bunch of hearts hereâŚâ
He then turns to a section you hadnât looked at before â the back page.
âWith lots of love, your one and only girlfriend [First].â
Oh shit. Oh shit.
Did his gang set you up?
âŚThey did. They did.
This is bad. So very bad.
âI never-â
âStop being so shy with your boyfriend, [First].â
âWhy are you being so difficult?â Nobunaga asks, slightly frowning as you protest.
You have to get out of here â fast. If you distract them enough, maybe youâll be able to make it outside. But theyâre faster than you, just better overall when it comes to physicality-
Uvoginâs hand rests on your shoulder, silencing any thoughts or ideas he does not approve of.
âI know what she wants.â
âHuh?â You and Nobunaga ask simultaneously with two distinctly different tones.
It then dawns on both of you what he means â because his shirt is tossed on the couch before you can even take a step toward the front door.
âI know what she wants.â Uvogin repeats.
He wants nothing more than to put you on your knees as he unzips his pants and as Nobunaga keeps you down. He wants nothing more than for Nobunaga afterward to have a turn â or he could go first if he wishes. One of his fingers and one of Nobunagaâs own will be forced into you after your own clothes are discarded. Two tongues will slather all over your pussy like thirsty dogs â and after a few pictures are taken youâll stay the night with Nobunaga while he makes his way to tell Chrollo that his idea was a success.
âI really couldnât have done it without you, boss.â
-You try to scream and Nobunagaâs hand muffles your mouthâs cries.
âDonât go being such a brat,â Uvogin continues, âWhen all you really want are two bodies to love on you.â
Your arms are grabbed and you are dragged up the stairs.
In a last attempt to get out of here, your legs spread out on the stairs and kick around at Nobunaga â but the fight is short-lived because they thump so roughly with each wooden step and it hurts; Nobunaga makes a note to finally get rid of any rotten oak once you leave.
The bedroom isnât as spacious as Uvogin had hoped. Clothes were scattered all over the place already; most Nobunagaâs but others were clearly from past flings or some of yours that he had managed to steal. Your dorm was nicer despite it being the same size as the bedroom and your bed being even smaller. But at least yours had a frame and covers.
Maybe later Uvogin will stop by to see you crying yourself to sleep and to take some trophies.
Your white panties were a favorite of his, but Uvogin wouldnât mind a little bit of change in his collection. A few bras perhaps or a few black thongs. He hopes for whole lingerie sets, but he knows it will only happen if he is lucky that particular evening.
Uvogin sits on the bed first. He thinks about pulling on your hair to make you sit on the dirty floor, but he dismisses the idea. That would be hurting you more than he has to and Nobunaga would be upset at him inevitably having long strands on his palm.
âHey Nobu,â He says, unzipping his pants and boxers as he quickly tugs them both down to his ankles. âMake sure sheâs comfy as we do this, okay?â
It took a while for you to stop crying after that. It took a while for you to do a lot of things Uvogin and Nobunaga wanted you to do. It took a while for you to take just the tip of Uvoginâs penis. Nobunaga had told Uvogin to take it slow when you had finally clamped your lips around him.
âItâs her first time, Uvo â be gentle, okay?â
Uvogin almost laughed at the irony he managed to leave unsaid.
He didnât want Nobunaga to get upset with all the information he had attained while stalking you for months. You were supposed to just be his little secret he pinned down once in a while, but then Nobunaga just so happened to share a few classes with you.
He fell for you too. Uvogin had never felt any negative emotion for Nobunaga ever over their years-long friendship, but the slight tinge of envy he possessed the moment he found out could almost count.
Oh well, he thinks. I still have pictures of you that he does not. Pictures I would rather not have him see and you probably donât either.
Just for future reference in case you acted up too much, though Uvogin could always take the more physical route.
Though once again he remembers that Nobunaga is in the picture now. Though their bond is as strong as forged steel, he knows that his friend has always been a bit too controlling when it comes to what he has and loves.
Whether that be simple instant ramen or expensive bottles of brandy, Nobunaga has always had a habit of stowing his possessions away where no one can even look at them.
Uvogin understands although Nobunaga had said nothing about you being something to own. Uvogin understands because he sees how he looks at you.
Itâs not disgust he feels. Itâs something much less potent, but he cannot put his finger on the exact word. Machi had described it perfectly once when they were all in their mid-teenage years.
He doesnât bother to remember right now.
You are more important.
You look prettier than he had ever seen you â precum is leaking a little from your lips as little noises come out of them too.
Please. Please.
Please.
Youâre not in tears right now.
Uvogin is glad. You in makeup is nice to look at, but he knows that since it is absolutely pouring outside you didnât want to put some on. Either for that reason or because you knew that Nobunaga was just a friend, despite what Nobunaga in return has told the Troupe. Itâs cute, really.
Maybe later he can pull this when he inevitably breaks into your dorm or even in a study room in the universityâs library. Youâll have makeup on when you feel like it or when he forces you to. He can ask Pakunoda about how to apply mascara and stuff. Sheâll teach him. As a bonus, she wonât tease him like Shalnark does daily.
Thinking more about the idea, Uvogin makes the mistake of letting go of your face.
You cough louder than he had expected. Your spit is now all over the wooden floor Nobunaga has to clean up later. The floors are water resistant. But not waterproof. Uvogin has to remember that there is in fact a difference. Hopefully, it wonât stain and rot like the stairs did, but if it does Uvogin wouldnât mind paying for the damages.
He wouldnât mind paying you to keep silent about this too â or heâll make the cops silent if it came down to it.
âOh,â Nobunaga rubs your arched back as you squirm and saliva runs down from your clearly sore jaw. He sounds disappointed, but trying not to let it show. Itâs not successful. Every person Nobunaga has ever crossed can read him like a book, not that Nobunaga knows about it. Or maybe he does and just doesnât want to admit it. âYou spat it all up. Didnât wanna swallow it?â
You donât respond. Uvogin is getting used to that by now. Not Nobunaga though.
âShh⌠itâs okay.â Nobunaga senses your distress but thinks it is just shyness. Uvogin is getting used to that too. âItâs okay⌠you did such a great job.â
âHome,â You choke out. âPlease⌠let me go home nowâŚâ
âWhat are you talking about, sweetheart?â Nobunaga asks, turning his head a little. âWeâre not done here.â
âPlease⌠Please, I-â
âShh.â Uvogin interrupts. Now it is his turn to play the good guy here. âNobu still hasnât had his turn, remember? Thankfully he wonât use your mouth.â
A blend of hope and fright is in your gaze. Uvogin didnât have to get used to that one. He has seen it too many times with all sorts of people. Chrollo loves that look. Feitan loves it too. Maybe their partnersâ eyes are like that as well. A ginger-haired girl avoids Chrollo like the plague and Uvogin hasnât seen that look particularly on her. Apparently, she does in fact beg him for things. With how prideful she acts, Uvogin would pay money to see that.
âHeâll use his,â Uvogin says. He stands up, zipping his pants back to how they used to be. There are a few white stains here and there, but nothing the laundromat wouldnât fix. âThen you can go home. Okay, princess?â
Youâll get used to this, Uvogin thought to himself. Everyone gets used to things. Even death.
was meant to be a drabble inspired by the opening of It Follows and it turned into something a lot longer than I expected sorry if itâs trash
Warnings: kidnapping, noncon, dubcon, death
The waves of the ocean lazily lapped at the sandy shore, the water hitting you every time the tide came in. The stereotypical image of a beach that had crossed your mind when youâd thought of this destination, one of a deep blue sea on golden sands, was nowhere to be found. Instead, the waves were black, reflecting the dark, empty sky above. The only light source in your vicinity was that of the car parked behind you, keys left in the ignition so you could keep the headlights on. You sat in the middle of that spotlight, hugging your knees to your chest as the water continued to hit you, soaking your feet and the seat of your shorts, leaving the fabric feeling cold and heavy on your body.
It was as though the waves were trying to pull you in, to take you into the abyss that sat before you, where you could disappear into its depths and never be found again.
The waves came rushing up, hitting you once more and then pulling away, tempting you with the same offer as they had been since you arrived.
âYouâre wrong,â you whispered, âheâd still find me.â
Summary: Jester takes care of everyone else, so it's only fair, that when in his time of need, the whole circus bands together to take care of Jester...
"Which one of you fucked up and got Jester all pissed off,"Â Harlequin chided, his narrowed gaze shooting accusatory glares at the other gathered around the dinner table - MC and Pierrot especially - as the thought of Bil doing anything to upset Jester was strange and unusual, but then again - Jester being so irate for a prolonged period of time was strange and unusual.Â
âImpressive, really,â Harlequin added, tapping his fork once against the viscera smeared across his plate. "Though, I'd rather not be under the circusâ equivalent of house-arrest when I've done nothing to deserve it."
âYou've always done something,â Ticket Taker scoffed, derisively. He was of the opinion that the clown got away with far more than he should. âBut I'll concede the point this time ⌠the reaction seems disproportionate.â
It had been more than three days since they've been bound strictly to the circus. Jester's words were clear in his demands that none of them were permitted off of circus grounds. He'd been uncharacteristically short-tempered and irritable - harsher and venomous in his tone than any of them could recall - outside of a legitimate emergency. Even when trouble was brought to the circus's doorstep, it was unheard of for the boss to snap at them.
"Is he sick?" You suggested.Â
"He has made the choice of isolating himself as of late," Bil pondered, folding his arms and resting a palm on the underside of his chin, his eye closed in thought.
âIf he were sick, youâd know,â Harlequin voiced. âJester doesnât bother hiding things like that.â
Bil seemed to lack an immediate answer for this, and as usual opted for silence rather than to fill the air with benign speculation. Harlequin, however, had no such obligation.
"Perhaps this is a game," the clown spoke aloud, to whoever was foolish enough to listen. âOur poor, sick JesterâŚâ he cooed, like the words amused him, "Maybe heâs waiting. Seeing whoâs diligent enough to act without being asked. What do you think, Doctor?" Harlequin finished.
The clown's ramblings had completely eclipsed the newfound presence of the Doctor, it was only when it was verbally stated did multiple heads turn.Â
The Doctor - eternally allusive - rarely expressed any inclination to fraternize with the rest of the circus and its affairs ⌠While he was fond of each member of his family respectfully, of course, he simply preferred to attend to the matters that needed his attention most; most often within his own tent. Nonetheless, he seemed to have caught on to the cloud of worry amongst the table; perhaps it should not have come as a surprise that he felt compelled to involve himself, on the subject of Jester and his odd behaviour.
"I believe the answer is not as cryptic as you're making it. It is May,â he said blankly - as if the deeper meaning behind the statement was as obvious as the sun setting in the west.
Harlequin responded, making no effort to conceal the sharp edge of sarcasm. âRevolutionary.â
âNo,â Doctor continued, either unbothered or oblivious to the jab. âSeasonal, actually.âÂ
 That earned him a pause. As the entire table gawked, failing to follow the Doctor's vague line of thought.
"I'm afraid I'm not following." Ticket Taker was the first to break the wave of confusion, stating plainly what every other perplexed face at the table was thinking.
The Doctor folded his gloves neatly upon the dining table, before taking his place before his meal across from Harlequin. âLate spring brings increased humidity, longer daylight hours, and - more relevant to our situation - the breeding period for Jester's... particular genus.â
"Breeding period?..." The words slipped from your mouth - not meant to question anyone in particular but your own curious mind.
"Yes." The Doctor confirmed.
Harlequin gave a soft scoff, if it was from disbelief or amusement couldn't be deciphered. "So let me understand this correctly," the clown's attire jingled softly as he bowed over, holding his stomach in an attempt to choke down the laughter bubbling to the surface.
 ââŚYouâre saying,â he started slowly, cohesive syllables bubbling towards the surface âthat this-â he gestured vaguely outward, as if Jesterâs attitude had soaked into the very molecules of the air, â-isnât about us, but Jester's need to get laid.â
Doctor tilted his head. âNot primarily, but yes.â
âOh, that is rich.â Harlequin scoffed.
Ticket Takerâs being stilled against the table only sporadically shifted with a subtle twitch of irritation by the clown's blatant defamatory of Jester. However, Harlequin's statement miraculously wasn't enough to bring about its immediate correction. Instead, Bil opted to focus on what was most important; Understanding of Jester's ailment and its solution. âClarify."
Doctor obliged without hesitation. âHis symptoms include Increased aggression, territorial behavior, heightened possessiveness, accompanied by a drive to gather and maintain proximity to preferred partners.â
ââŚHarem,â Harlequin translated, with an almost impish glee.
âHarem... I suppose. Functionally, the term 'preferred partners' could be substituted for it.â Doctor tilted his head, thinking over the word with an experimental drawl.
Silence followed that. Not the empty silence, where questions bled unchecked, yet none were answered - the one that usually accompanied confusion. Instead, this time, something heavier settled across the room caused by everyone, in their own way, fitting themselves into that definition of 'Preferred Partner'.
You felt it settle like weight across your shoulders. The words didn't sound as clinical, even when it was the Doctor who spoke them.Â
âSo... what?â You said, attempting levity and missing by a margin that almost felt like you were a rat caught in a kitchen.
 You wish you hadn't said anything - just kept your mouth shut until a verdict was formed. Now all eyes were on you, and the option to keep quiet was a road now barred, with no other choice you strung together the most cohesive sentence you could muster, âSo... we just⌠wait it out? Keep getting snapped at until he chills?â
âHe will not âchill,â â Doctor replied. âNot for a while, unless there is resolution.â
Pierrotâs chair creaked softly as he shifted, visibly disturbed at the implications of Doctor's words, Ticket Taker closed his eyes, a slow, methodical sigh dragging out, and Harlequinâs grin returned, slower now, like he were watching a car crash in slow motion, and was enjoying every second of it.
âWell that sounds solvable,â Harlequin spilled, his tone matching the doctors in that unbothered, far too casual kind of way.Â
âSeems far more efficient than offering up a single sacrifice.â For a long moment, the others simply stared at him in silent surprise.
Harlequin reveled in the newfound attention, the corners of his mouth curling into a wide cheshire grin, "Aren't we scheduled for a show tonight, Bil? Seems pretty inefficient to leave⌠complications unresolved.â Slitted green irises slid to the head of the table, caught there by the Ticket Takerâs unyielding stare.Â
You let out a short breath. âYouâre joking.â
âRelax doll,â Harlequin said, turning his head just enough for his gaze to catch theirs, bright and intent. âJust being helpful~âĄâ
âThatâs not-â You stopped knowing better than to start an argument you'd never win. This still didn't stop you from scrubbing a hand over your face in exasperation, a low rumbling growl resonated from the seat directly beside you. âThis isn't some group project, Harlequin.â
âWhy not?â he countered. âWe are, apparently, already part of the collection.â
Ticket Taker cleared his throat softly, thoroughly tired of the banter.Â
âLogistically⌠it would resolve the issue faster. But, that is not the only consideration,â Bil cut in, sharper than before. His gaze flicked toward you, then Pierrot. âThis is not an obligation.â
 Ticket Taker continued, "The dilemma is quite urgent⌠provided we're all willing, it might be possible to address Jester's condition, and prepare circus affairs before tonight's opening,â
Â
âGiven the extent to which he made sacrifices for each of our benefits, our course in this seems obvious,â Ticket Taker concluded. âWould any of you disagree?â
The room was plunged into an awkward silence, the question left lingering, naked and unaccompanied.
âPierrot,â Ticket Taker made a point to now single out the clown. âIf you have any objections, now would be the time to voice them.â His voice stern as to elicit a response and yet gentle enough as to not pressure him into a hasty decision.
Pierrot startled faintly when the group's attention reached him.
â...Iâll participate,â he said, voice quiet but steady enough to hold. Then, after a flicker of hesitation, his eyes shifted- landing on you. âIf they do too.â
You felt the heat boil in your veins, swelling in your cheeks, not only because of Pierrot's bold statement. No, it was the unwavering spotlight of attention that was now shifted directly upon you, leaving not an unobserved flicker of emotion nor trace of hesitation unrevealed. You felt your throat tighten, constricting until neither breath nor voice could flee.Â
You could only watch as Harlequinâs hungry, almost predatory gaze lit up in delight, as if watching you swallow around your leadened tongue was the most entertainment he's gotten all evening, and he had all night to enjoy it. Beside him at the head of the table, Ticket Takerâs look was steady, expectant, a constant quiet authority within the room. He held the same patience he exercised with Pierrot for you, yet that still didn't stop the pressure that bore down on you like physical weights.Â
You averted your gaze from the more stifling end of the table, and met your own reflection in the Doctor's eyewear. His posture was clinical, detached, almost serene in his observation. His gaze didnât observe you quite like the others did, he didn't expect anything from you except results; an unanswered hypothesis about the human mind when put under stress- you could merely assume.
Pierrot's in contrast were gentle, open, too earnest for the weight of the room, watched you like you were a life raft, and he was stranded in turbulent waves. There was hope there, tangled with anxiety, a quiet plea not to force him into a choice to displease you, nor his closest familiars.Â
But do you even want this?
Is this more about helping Pierrot⌠or being wanted by Jester?
All of your interactions with him were short, cut and dry at best, one-sided-ly awkward at worst. Who's to say he would even want to-?
Your eyes slipped closed and you inhaled on four, held for four, and exhaled for four. You breathed in, you breathed out.
"S-sure." The word came out smaller than intended. You forced a breath out through your nose, willing your voice to be steadier this time.
"As long as everyone's willing." You felt for Pierrot's hands beneath the table, only to be caught first. His grip was firm, glove too soft and lace comfortably solid. There was something unspoken there, between the interaction. The shared embrace, something unwavering , a promise that all will be well.
...
After dinner had concluded, the room emptied rather quickly.
Doctor and Bil set out together. Their exit was swift and without elaboration. If you were to take a guess, you'd assume they were both on their way to Jester's tent to inform him of the verdict, and to gather his acceptance.
Harlequin lingered just long enough to watch them go, tracking them with a cheshire grin until the moment they disappeared beyond the thick canvas tent. Soon after, with a provocative wink in your direction I disappeared into the night soon after.
Â
 You lingered longer. Pierrot, the ever present shadow at your side, hadn't budged either, seemingly lost in his own thoughts.Â
"Hey we should probably go wash up... Together, if you want, I think we still have that strawberry bath bomb you like."
If there was anything you loved most about Pierrot, it'd probably be how transparent he was, never holding anything back unless he had too. At the mere mention of being within air sharing distance of you, wet, naked, and sharing a scent he liked - he lit up, the revelation that unfolded only minutes ago and the future to come now irrelevant.Â
"I would want nothing more, my dearest~âĄ" He beamed, eyes dreary in bliss and a wide smile framing his face. It reminded you of the beginning of all this, when you had let him into the cafe during closing and patched him up like he was some stray. Now, the big baby turned out to be the love of your life.Â
Perhaps tonight's events will pan out in the same positive direction, and even if it didn't, you had Pierrot's promise that no matter what, everything will turn out fine. The vow was enough to soothe your worries, and give you the strength to continue forward, and guide Pierrot to your tent, hand in hand
...
 With your concerns and fears assuaged, you'd allowed Pierrot to lead you toward the spare bedroom Bil had set up for the affair. Candles flickered in each corner and along the windowsill, casting the room in a warm glow. Already undressed, Harlequin appeared almost golden in the low light, strewn across the floor, his form devastatingly seductive amongst the sea of pillows, quilts, and mattresses gathered from storage. The furnishings had been removed, say for a low table appearing almost like an altar at the center of the room. Ticket Taker, poised and professional despite his staggering lack of clothes, he waited beside it with a diligence that seemed out of place for the occasion.
"Should we undress too?" You questioned the Ticket Taker nervously, trying to look anywhere other than directly at anyone or anything.
"That would be wise." Bil concluded.
You felt the familiar feeling of blood rushing to the swells of your cheeks. Instinctively you glanced behind you for guidance from your other half, only to be met with the pale expanse of Pierrot's chest, who seemed to waste no time on modesty.
Â
His garments pooled amongst the ground beside him, fabric slipped from his shoulders, then his waist, then fell in soft succession to the floor at his feet, one after the other until only his hat remained. If the scene weren't so scandalizing, it would have been comedic. it might have played like some absurd stage act, a magician shedding layers instead of pulling rabbits from hats.
You, meanwhile, felt rooted in place, caught somewhere between mortification and a strange, flickering curiosity.Â
Of course Pierriot noticed, he always did.
A soft, almost shy sound left him, warm and breathy, like you still being too shy to look at his naked body after seeing it dozens of times, was some personal insult.
"Please, don't be shy. Look all you'd like, my dearest. Please... Ravish me with your gaze as I would you."Â
âOr we could all get on with... this, and spare ourselves the poetry.â Harlequin cut in, voice dry with disinterest, yawning as to emphasize this notion.Â
"Matter of fact... Where is our Jes?"Â
Ticket Taker cleared his throat, but otherwise unshaken by the sudden use of nicknames. "Jester is with the doctor currently, they both should be with us momentarily."
You nodded, distracting yourself with the slow removal of your own garments, careful to ignore the increasingly noisy engine-like growls emanating from the clown doing his damndest to shield you from Harlequin's gaze.Â
You focused on the fabric. The way it slid against your skin. The quiet sounds it made as it joined the growing pile on the floor.
Harlequin said something, drawn out and teasing. Yet it was tuned out, almost muffled at the edges of your mind. So were Pierrotâs low, protective rumbles, that sounded more like a low purr than a warning. You sighed, losing yourself in the simplicity of shedding your layers, even going so far as to close your eyes and imagine you were in the calming, desolation of your own bedroom.
You let it all dissolve, and somewhere beyond that, just at the edge of your awareness, the entrance of the tent shifted. A faint disturbance, ignored in place of your own musings.
As the last of your clothing was kicked off, close to the side of the room your awareness returned.
âWhat would you require of me, before we commence?â Jester questioned the Ticket Taker gently. Despite the softness, the voice broke you from your trance, making your spine straighten instinctively. Your hands stilled where they hovered at your hips, just beneath the corners of your underwear.
You hadn't even noticed them arrive.
âTo lie on the altar and be comfortable. Following the preparations, you're free to use us as you will.â
âI am dreadfully proud of you. I want you to know that,â the Jester commented him softly, cupping his jaw and grazing a thumb fondly along the Ticket Taker's cheekbone, before leaning down to capture his lips in a hungry kiss. Bil gave a small gasp of surprise, before letting out a low groan, the noise encouraging the primal, hormone driven part of the jester's mind. Impulsively, he attempted to push his offering back against the altar, wanting to take and claim what was being so sweetly offered. But it was here that he met resistance, Bil pulling away, and meeting his gaze with determination.
âMy deepest apologies,â his second in command apologized mournfully, before clawed fingers found the edges of the jester's robe. âWe suggest Harlequin be the first. He explicitly requested it, If you would permit it."
Jester nodded his assent, allowing Ticket Taker to peel the garment away, before taking his place on the table, adopting a supine position. He seemed to relax -Â you could only assume it was due to the presence of his whole 'harem'. That much was evident by the almost serene smile on his lips, accompanied by his already painfully erection once again, cock standing proudly upright. It appeared he wasn't the only one; his attention, and yours was drawn by a plaintive, needy whine from the floor below. Harlequin's head and shoulders were held firm in Pierrot's lap. A syringe was buried deep in one of the clown's thighs - a steady flow of the mystery pink substance being pumped into his veins - as the Doctor steadily plunged three fingers in and out of the smaller monster's hole. You felt as much as you heard the Jester growl in frustrated displeasure.
âRelax,â Bil chastised sternly. âDoctor is simply preparing him for you." Harlequin had been noisily adamant about it, citing that the whole thing had been his idea in the first place. Ticket Taker didn't mention the added benefit of Harlequin taking the worst of Jester's rut- was keeping the harlot temporarily out of commission for the remainder of the affair. With his hands full of ensuring this ended in success and staying on track for tonight's show; Bil needed all the peace of mind and clarity he could muster.Â
And you silently found yourself sharing that sentiment.

PT. 2 Releases Tomorrow, Stay tuned for some Harlequin x Jester Action.
Phinksâ the type of guy to roll on top of you while youâre both sleeping and genuinely suffocate you on accident. Like Uvo might, but heâd also wake up after a while of you struggling and laugh about it before pulling you back on top of his chest. Phinks just âHonk Mi Mi Mi Miâsâ the entire way through your oxygen deprivation and only realizes after he wakes up naturally.
This is also not to say that heâs not perceptive- like if you leave the bed he will wake up. Itâs more so the lack of your presence being a wake up alarm for him rather than being hyper vigilant of you while he sleeps.
