would you happen to know how to get over embarrassment to write smut? thanks
unironically fantastic question
i think it helps to think of it like playing dolls, sometimes. i know itâs pretty common to draw a parallel between the writing and the author, often because (especially and specifically with smut/erotica) a lot of readers are imprinting onto one (or both!) of the charactersâ wants and desires and feelings and sensations. but this isnât universal. iâve written a ton of smut, like a TON, and usually my goal isnât necessarily just âmake something hot happenâ.
the relationship that characters have with sex and/or intimacy is just something i think is super interesting to explore. how does the character feel about sex? about relationships? do they think of anything thatâs happening as having an implicit power dynamic? does the other character agree that such a dynamic is present? are they equally emotionally involved? do they care if theyâre equally emotionally involved? does sex have moral weight and implication, negative or positive? does one of them feel owed? does one of them feel like they owe? does this character feel comfortable with feeling good? is that easy, or difficult? do they like to feel in control of themselves? of the other person? how do they feel about their skill level with sex and intimacy? are they comfortable with doing things they havenât done before? how about with this other character specifically?
going to use an example from something i was writing more recentlyâone character is pretty comfortable with sex, but not their skill level, even though their skill level matches the other characterâs pretty well. this character is uncomfortable with their being any perceived imbalance in effort or pleasure, but doesnât see any of what theyâre doing as having implicit moral weight or power dynamic. sex isnât necessarily vulnerable, although it can be, and theyâre worried about how much theyâre emotionally involved increasingly as they keep having sex with this other character, because theyâve decided this must clearly be a more casual dynamic, and theyâre annoyed theyâre catching feelings. control isnât something this character really thinks about, not struggling particularly either way, but if prompted they might have opinions; they just wouldnât be the one to bring it up first.
the other character is extremely comfortable with sex, maybe to a degree thatâs to their detriment. they consider themselves pretty skilled, not unfairly, and is more of a giver than a taker on account of feeling very much like sex is a deeply vulnerable act, but less so when theyâre in control of dispensing pleasure, and does deep down a little bit consider it to be wrong to have as much casual sex as they do, but do so anyways. theyâve gotten fairly emotionally involved and arenât aware that this isnât necessarily mutual, considering it a given for the amount of repeat encounters theyâve had, that being entirely unusual. this character isnât obsessed with controlling the other person, but is incredibly concerned with controlling themselves, and although it hasnât been noticed yet, theyâve really only lost that control maybe once in upwards of a dozen encounters, if not more, and even that few of instance has stressed them out a lot.
their dynamic isnât unhealthy per say, theyâre both adults capable of making choices, but the gaps between the answers to those questions makes really interesting stuff happen. conflicts and fulfillments of needs both. and a lot of these characterizations will proceed outside of sexâself-control, personal boundaries, introspection, ability to communicate, ability to accept joy and pleasure, ability to be honest (positive and negative). smut doesnât have an innate moral valueâitâs writing. if you just want to make the characters find each other super hot, thatâs based, and also communicating ideas; what they find attractive, how able they are to forget their problems in the moment, how they pursue their urges and wants and needs.
smut is cool. also itâs hot. you arenât lame for finding things hot, itâs pretty normal. if someone yucks your yum thatâs lame. dumb smut exists everywhere all of the time so i doubt youâre gonna get too much heat for using the wrong term for a penisdick. everyone thinks different ones are hot or weird. do your best
not joking i didnât even realize how long it had been since i last posted something on this account until i went to update the fic bucket and, this is not an exaggeration, i Did Not Remember Writing A Single One Of Those.
M!Scout and F!Sniper sharing a double dildo? Sharing is caring!
i repeat. âwrites m/f pairing in a distinctly bisexual wayâ
(no warnings for this one!)
-
Sniper squeezed encouragingly at Scoutâs thigh where it had started faintly trembling at some point, his heels precariously close to the edge of the bed and threatening to slip. âYou ready, then, you think?â she mumbled, trying to keep her voice gentle and soothing, the motion of her fingers in easy rolls.
âMaybe, uhâa few more minutes?â Scout managed, voice a little tight, a little reedy, loosening up his grip where he was squeezing her arm just over the lip of too tightly, the flippy part of the front of his hair sticking to his forehead from sweat.
âOh, come on,â she teased, free hand rising to fuss with his hair gently, âyouâre just saying that because you like this part. Youâll like the next part even better, you realize.â
He leaned his cheek into her hand before she could pull it back away again, looking sidelong at her, clearly dizzied with want but still managing to flash her a wink. âSo maybe I like lookinâ at your pretty face a little too much, sue me!â he said in some squeakier imitation of a charming tone, and she rolled her eyes to break back out of the moment, feeling that squirmy, uncomfortable thing rear its head somewhere deep in her chest, the one that always cropped up when he started looking at her like that. Warm and sweet and like he couldnât help but smile when he saw her.
âBig city flirt,â she accused under her breath, hoping to god that her face wasnât flushing, and his exhale mightâve been a laugh, so she curled her fingers hard enough to make his back arch in retaliation. Just in case.
âOutback sadist,â he accused right back, unable to tamp down on his adoration, and now her face was certainly flushing.
âMate, you donât have to pretend itâs for prepââ she purred, curled her fingers again, and it wrung a string of half-swears from him, thighs jerking, ââyou can always just ask me nicely, you know.â
âWho says I even like this? This was your idea, you know,â he joked, even as his voice cracked a bit high.
âOh, my mistake,â Sniper scoffed, tried to bite back a smile. âIs there anything I could possibly do to make this more tolerable for you? Arenât I the terrible host.â
âLean forward?â Scout said, cocking his chin at her, and she did, unable to resist the open challenge of it. He guided her a little further in with a hand on the back of her neck, leaned up to kiss her maybe too-sweetly, and she chuffed a laugh as his other wasted zero time to slip beneath her bra and squeeze.
âWill there ever come a day where I have a momentâs peace inside my own bloody home? Where some man isnât trying to put my bras out of the job?â she deadpanned when he pulled back away.
âSome man?â Scout laughed, and kissed her again. âIs that all I am?â
âYes. Some man. I donât know how he keeps getting in. My theory is that the windows are just big enough.â
Scout laughed again, and there was no way it was that funny, but he did that, where he laughed at her jokes even when they werenât funny. It made that squirmy thing in her chest protest faintly, so she decided to just get things moving again.
She pulled her hand free and toweled it off, and Scout obliged with letting her lean up again, sitting up and looking over at where her fun new toy sat. âSo, uh,â he asked, picking up the thing, turning it over in his hand, âyou wanna do the honors of goinâ first, doll?â
âYou just want to see how much of that you can get in me,â she deadpanned, putting her hair up out of the way before she could forget.
âHey now. Thatâs just true. How am I supposed to argue with that?â Scout complained, paused in his leaning to try to pick up the tube of vaseline to ogle her as she slid her underwear off and tossed them in her hamper. âCanât it just be ladies first?â
âOh, what a gentleman,â she drawled, crawling back into bed next to him, watching him starting to slick up the toy. She hesitated before moving to take a position on her hands and knees, trying to leave plenty of room on the bed behind her. She felt odd, suddenly, more on-display than usual, and felt strangely sheepish as she glanced over her shoulder and caught the moment that Scout saw her, eyes wide as he took in the visual, fumbling with the now-slick toy and almost dropping it entirely. âLetâs give it a go, then. Go on.â
âYeah, for sure!â Scout stammered, quickly situating behind her, and she turned her head back forward, trying to get comfortable. It was made easier as Scoutâs slick fingers travelled from halfway to her tailbone downward, spreading her apart and ending up nestling in on either side of her clit, making her hum. He kept up a gentle motion there as she felt one end of the toy tease for a few seconds before he started situating properly. âYouâre all good if Iâ?â
âGo on,â she urged, and forced her breath to stay even as the toy slid in, easy after the first push. She hummed again as the toy reached a good, comfortable depth, almost weighty, and she choked on a gasp as with one more push it was moving past that comfortable depth untilâ
âDamn,â Scout whispered, a little awed. âThat as far as I can go?â
âAbout,â Sniper confirmed, voice choked.
âToo far?â
âSâalright,â Sniper assured, bit back a noise as he slid the toy out some increment and back in again, trying to adjust.
âGotta say,â Scout said slowly, picking up a brief rhythm, slide and pull and rub and squeeze blending together and making her head tip to hang forward despite herself. âThis is⊠kind of weirdly comforting.â
âRight?â she asked, dead confused.
âLike, that even a way-above-average dick doesnât make like, a huge difference immediately. If you were already losing your cool the second you hit seven inches, I mightâve felt a little bad we didnât do this sooner.â
âNo, Scout, thatâs not how literally anything works,â she chided, rolling her eyes a little. âYou bottom too, you know that.â
âI know, I know, just, yâknow,â Scout said, and she rocked into it slightly as the rhythm changed into something a little quicker. âMaybe you missed the Australian dudes, I dunno.â
âIâm not disappointed in you and your dick for being under ten inches,â she drawled, tone dry. âAre you hinting that you want to try that?â
âUh, no? Iâm not explaining that to Medic,â Scout said, sounding genuinely stressed out, and it made her laugh a little bit, and he sat back a little, wiping off his hands the same way she did. âReady?â
âRight as rain,â she confirmed, and tried to hold the toy into position as he went to mirror her.
âIf anything is weird,â he started trying to say, but she shifted back with her knees until they pressed into the outside of his and started leaning back, easing, and he stopped talking entirely, a moan wrung out of him just from the toy starting to press in properly.
And to be fair, it was weird, immediately. She felt as her end of the toy reached as deep as it could go, pressing into her cervix, hypersensitive for a moment before on the other side the head popped in on Scoutâs end behind her, and from there it was actually easy for a while. A slight shift of her knees to fix the angle, easing back further, and before she knew it, their thighs pressing together.
âNow do IâŠâ she asked breathlessly, and he pressed back as she leaned forward, and the toy shifted just barely, almost teasingly, oddly enough.
âWe gotta,â Scout tried, cleared his throat as his voice broke. âWe gotta move at⊠the same time. Lean⊠forward?â
She did, and whined a little as it eased out.
âAnd then back,â Scout breathed, and a broken noise squeaked out before he could cover his mouth. âFuck, Snipes, I hope thatâs good for you too because holy fuck is that good for meââ
âProbably about the same,â she confirmed breathlessly, and when her thighs met Scoutâs again, she seamlessly shifted forward again.
It was odd immediately, the way it felt to be in this sort of push-pull, to be fucking by getting fucked, oddly animal, too-warm. She felt like she lost ground a little too quickly for her liking, dropping to her elbows then to only one elbow as it took not much time at all to break and reach for herself, alternating between playing with her slickened clit and occasionally just pressing into her lower stomach when she got too dialed up.
It was bloody fantastic, truly, enough that it was hard to hold herself together, moreso when she could hear Scout losing his mind behind her.
âGod damn, Snipes,â he managed, panting, and her face fell into the crook of her elbow for a moment, flushing at the almost pleading tone he had. âDidnât know youâyou like it like this.â
She hummed in question, not trusting her voice.
âFuckinââhard and short and, and deep,â he explained, overwrought, voice weak.
âCanât handle it?â she tried to tease, just to cover for herself. âOver so soon?â
âLike I said, ladies first,â he laughed, and she wished she could deny it and make a competition out of it, but frankly, she was pretty sure he was right. He hadnât even touched his dick properly yet and was rapidly starting to take over the rhythm for them both. She didnât stand a chance.
He wasnât even a gentleman about it. Barely slowed down as her orgasm crashed over her, then returned to the same rhythm again as she reached the other side panting and gasping, oversensitive and weak. She found herself still rocking, even half-mad with it, overheated and hungry for the same thing to happen to him, and by the time she felt him shift to stroke himself off, spilling over his fingers not long after, she was close enough to the edge that he had to reach back to hold the toy still as she bounced on the toy recklessly until the endorphins flooded her again.
She slid off of the toy and flopped down onto her side, groaning, thighs burning and hand threatening to cramp. Scout joined her a moment later, laying with his chest against her back, arm looping loosely over her stomach before eventually his hand migrated to squeeze at her chest, more playfully than expectantly, nosing in at the hair on the back of her neck.
She could almost say âlovinglyâ, if she wouldnât hate that.
âI gotta wash the toy,â she mumbled, before sheâd even properly caught her breath.
âIâll get it in a minute,â Scout assured, pulling her closer before she could get up. âThat was really somethinâ, huh?â
âYeah,â she agreed, settling despite how odd she still felt about him being cuddly like this. Squirmy, almost. âTook a long time to set up, but, weâll have to remember that one.â
Scoutâs hand cupped at her chest, warm and rough near the callouses, body hot against her back. âYouâre sure thereâs not any other, like, good position for that, though?â
âI can ask the sheila at the till in the sex shop,â she murmured, âwhy? Was the angle off?â
âNo, just,â Scout said, and paused as he clearly searched for the right words. âJust, it was weird that I couldnât really see you or touch you much. If thereâs a different way, though, where itâs not, yâknow, all far like thatâŠâ
âWorried Iâm going to sneak off or something?â she teased, unsure what he meant.
âIt would just be nice,â he laughed, nosed in at the top of her spine. âI just like lookinâ atcha.â
She felt him smoothing his fingertips over where her heart and Uber implant were supposed to be, one foot nudging between hers and crooking at her ankle, audibly smiling and shining with adoration, and she identified the feeling in her chest as maybe less of a squirm, really, and more of an ache, now that she thought about it.
His dress shirt was sticking to his back with sweat, but that was the least of his worries just then.
His hands clamped around Scoutâs waist as he braced forward with hands just above Medicâs knees, panting hard. Scout threw a glance back over his shoulder, and his face was red, eyes hazy as he stalled in his movement for a few moments. âCâmon, Doc, fuckinâ help me out here,â he managed, breathless.
âYouâre the one who insisted on interrupting me while I was attempting to work, Scout,â Medic pointed out, voice just barely kept under control. âFinish what you have started yourself, or leave. Your choice.â
Scout swore, head falling back forward again, panting starting to level out. He forced himself back into motion, small sounds grating their way from the back of his throat.
Medicâs own head fell back, clattering lightly against the operating table, breath stuttering. Here heâd thought him assisting Scout one time with his sudden change in libido wouldnât happen again. His own fault, frankly.
All he knew was that the changes heâd been going through since his routine injections extended past just changes in attitude. His voice was so much different, now, just slightly lower every day, more gritty, and Medic couldnât help but shiver at every groan that slipped past Scoutâs lips.
His hands tightened at Scoutâs hips and he thrust up, and Scout cried out, lurching, and stammered something pleading under his breath, clearly relieved, even as his legs trembled from exertion.
He wanted to hear more. More than that, he wanted to fuck Scout well enough that he wouldnât keep coming back here like this.
He rolled hard, and Scout worked with his rhythm, groaning appreciatively, given new vigor, new desperation. One of Scoutâs hands unclamped from above his knee, and from the shift in his weight, from the way his voice cracked just slightly, Medic knew he was toying with himself, desperately chasing after the finish line.
He himself was so close to there was well, and he kept up his rhythm, grit his teeth at the sound of Scout crying out, the feeling of him tensing, still rolling hard, pleading almost, and once he was starting to truly gasp for air, relaxing just slightly, he pulled out again, finishing off with his hand, thankful of the condom Scout had been just smart enough to bring. Hopefully that would minimize the mess a bit.
Calm, hard breathing, heat fading, for long moments there in the infirmary. Then Scout sighed, carded a hand up through his hair, glanced back over his shoulder at Medic again, this time with a self-satisfied grin. âSo, same time next week, Doc?â he asked, voice running a little rough.
BLU M!Sniper and RED F!Sniper split roasting their lover M!Scout?
(warnings for roughness and mention of jealousy, possessiveness, etc)
He had to know it was a long shot, but there he was, giving her puppy eyes and trying his best to explain himself.
âšIt was a bold thing to ask. And he admitted as much, admitted that he knew she hated the guy, and besides that he didnât know how fond she was of... well, sharing. She spent probably half the time she complained about things complaining about the guy being a bastard, and a shitty sniper overall, accusing him of being a prick and having a big head and being a coward first and foremost. But also, Scout just thought, yâknow, maybe...
And she had a very confident ânoâ locked and loaded, ready to go, but then she looked back over at him and saw those puppy eyes again, and the only word that she managed to say after a minute was a particularly grumpy âBugger.â
And when she eventually said yesâwith a few stipulationsâhe didnât exactly need to know, that... some of the problem was the fact that after a few years, her frustration with the other teamâs Sniper had gotten a bit... charged. In a few ways. And she made sure to stress that she wasnât going to be the one putting in the leg work to try to convince the bastard of anything, but she would be calling the shots.
The speed at which Scout agreed to all of that made her a little concerned that she was somehow being played, still.
Then apparently he actually managed it, then they were meeting at a bar, and Scout tactfully placed himself between the two of them at that bar so they wouldnât strangle each other before they could talk, and she knew him well enough to be able to tell that his smile was just slightly forced as he looked between them.
âUh, so, Snipes,â he said, and she raised an eyebrow at him. âUh, we figured the name thing might get confusing, so Iâll still be callinâ you Snipes, but, uhââ
âMick,â the other Sniper cut in before he could keep rambling. âJust call me Mick.â
âFunny, rhymes with âprickâ,â she quipped.
His jaw tightened. Scout fidgeted, hurried to cut in again.
âUh, but, yeah, I couldnât get into details much since I figured we could kinda figure that stuff out a little better once, uh... once we get there, yâknow?â he trailed, glancing around their vicinity briefly, self-consciously.
âI get the gist of it,â Mick said. âAgreed enough to show up, at least.â
âNot worried weâre here to ambush and kill you?â she asked.
âImplying Iâm scared of you,â he said, and her grip on her glass tightened, and she was about to say a few choice words when she felt Scoutâs hand on her knee, squeezing lightly, and she just huffed, taking another drink.
âSo, if youâve got any, uh, questionsââ Scout tried.
âHereâs one,â Mick cut in. âWhat are we all telling our employers?â
And he was surprisingly civil after that while they talked briefly about the implications for their jobs, and came to the collective conclusion that if one of them was screwed over, theyâd all be screwed over, so they didnât particularly plan on being rats. Sniper then informed Mick about a few house rules, mainly that if Scout told him to stop or let up, heâd damn well stop and let up, and that he could get rough if Scout asked, and Scout flushed all the way up to his ears during the entirety of it but for the most part she considered this important enough to ignore him.
And then they were finishing off their drinks, and then they were heading to the motel, and then Scout was getting them a room key and left the two of them alone for a moment.
âšShe had Mick by the collar in a moment, yanked down to make up for the two or so inches of difference in their heights. âAlright, you listen here,â she growled, sunglasses pulled off for the moment. âI bloody well mean it when I say that I donât want you trying to make this into a contest. Heâs my boyfriend, end of story. No matter what happens, I had him first. Clear?â
âToo bad you apparently need to bring someone else in to help keep him pleased,â Mick smirked, grinning like a bastard, and the only thing she could think to do that would wipe that stupid fucking smile off his face better than a swift punch to the nose was to kiss him like she wanted to maim in the process, so thatâs what she did.
When Scout came back not even five minutes later, he found them both flushed, hair a mess, looking borderline murderous. âSo... weâre doinâ this?â he asked feebly, and was yanked bodily towards their room.
She found herself on top of Scout in bed, boxing him in and kissing him like the world was ending while Mick mucked around in the bathroom. She didnât waste time before starting to pull him free of his shirt, of his belt, and wasnât surprised to find him already half-hard by the time she got a hand into his pants to cup at him.
When she pulled away enough to try and get her own shirt off, she registered the surprise that seemed to be evident on Scoutâs face, the vague confusion largely overshadowed by awe. And she took the opportunity to bend down, mouth finding the space just under his jaw, stopping there to nip and suck hard enough to make him jolt, groan, grip at her shouldersânot pushing or pulling, just holding on for dear life as she sucked a mark and finally pulled away to look down at him again.
âMine,â was all she said, voice a growl, and he nodded vigorously, clearly already dizzied by the entirety of what was going on.
And then she heard the door to the bathroom opening, and she pulled back enough to glance back in the direction of it, and was only half-surprised to see Mick already shirtless. Still had the shades on, though.
âBe patient,â she murmured to Scout, pressing a brief kiss to his cheek to quiet the beginning of a complaint when she sat up and climbed off him, moving to her bag to get what sheâd need.
And by the time sheâd untangled the increasingly-familiar harness and gotten it most of the way on, she was distracted by the sound of a stifled groan. She glanced over her shoulder and saw that apparently Mick had taken over for her, and was two fingers deep and carefully spreading Scout open, quieting how loud Scout tended to get with a biting kiss.
She paused entirely to watch for a few seconds, surprised by how hot that visual was making her, sending a shiver clambering up her spine, and even slightly more surprised at how quickly he was working. Clearly he had some experience with this.
âBring a lot of men around seedy motels?â she couldnât help but quip, trying to distract herself from the heat thrumming through her.
Mick pulled away from the kiss to raise an eyebrow at her. That was when she noticed that apparently Scout had coaxed him out of his glasses. âEnough,â he admitted casually, tone entirely more level than it should have been given the way that, now without a kiss to distract him, Scout had needed to bite down on the meat of his own hand to keep quiet, a litany of pleased little noises pouring out of his mouth.
âI imagine this is just another Saturday for you, then,â she huffed, finally managing to get that one buckle that always stuck to cooperate with her.
âNah,â Mick replied, glancing back down at Scout for a moment while he reached and took his by then straining dick in his hand, giving it a brief pump just to hear the way Scoutâs voice cracked high for a second. âHave to admit, this one hereâs been caught on my scope a few times besides just to shoot him. Heâs good-looking.â
Scout looked like he very much wanted to reply to that somehow, but his first word was replaced by a choked noise as Mick twisted his wrist just so and squeezed around the head, thrusting his fingers once, hard. She caught Scoutâs eye, saw the same awe on his face, like he wasnât entirely sure this was really happening, then saw the hunger flit into his expression as she pushed the toy into place on the harness and finished tightening it. âYouâre right on that,â she agreed, moving over and cupping at Scoutâs cheek, feeling the heat of his face under her hand and grinning at the fact that he couldnât seem to decide whether to look at the strap or at her face. âBut if you think he looks good now, you should see him here in a few minutes.â
âMight not be that long,â Mick replied, glancing over at the attachment and pulling his fingers free, wiping off his hand.
âIâm, Iâm good,â Scout agreed, nodding hard. âSo, how are we gonna do this, are weââ
Mick shut him up with a pair of hands bodily flipping him over and promptly pulling him up onto his knees, and Scoutâs shiver of pleasure at the manhandling was misread by Mick, who squeezed his hips comfortingly for a moment. âMe in front, yeah?â he asked Sniper, who nodded, Scout hurriedly stammering out in the affirmative as well.
And she was slowed down in her attempt to arrange everything how she pleased at the visual of Scout fumbling his way through trying to open Mickâs pants one-handed, just a little bit too pleased at the notion of sucking him off, taking him into his mouth with enthusiasm that was just a touch too much, made that jealous streak flare up for just a second, and she didnât bother reining herself in as much as usual as she dug fingernails into his hips, pushing in.
That groan he always made at that initial push was muffled, then echoed by Mick as Scout sank further forward and apparently did something very right. She couldnât tell as well from the angle sheâd found herself in, and didnât particularly care. Sheâd only care if those noises started sounding too strained.
âPull his hair,â she suggested, pleased to find that at the very least, she got to be the most put-together. Mick glanced up, expression hazy. âHe likes it.â
He did so without further commentary, threading a hand in through the longer hair up at the top of his head and tugging, using it for leverage to push him down further. Scout groaned his appreciation, a distinct flex in his back letting Sniper know he was honestly leaning in to it just as much as Mick was pulling.
Alright, she was coming around. He won. Scout was right. This was a good idea.
She didnât bother warming him up into things, knowing that heâd sometimes complain about her going too slow when she did it on normal nights, and heâd be even more frustrated if she did now. She just started straight into rocking her hips in steady motions, knowing by then just the right rhythm to leave him breathless without making her get too out of breath. She could keep it up for a good, long time, and always ended up enraptured at the way Scout melted, arching into it and gasping and moaning and gorgeous.
This time, he was a little distracted by clearly putting a good amount of effort into sucking off the other man, but even then he was noisy, and that only made Mick buck into his mouth all the more often.
âGorgeous thing,â Mick choked, petting through his hair for a moment before snaring it and using it to buck into his mouth with more intent than before, and Scout just moaned, tilting slightly to accommodate. âGod. Like youâre bloody made for this.â
âYou have no idea,â Sniper said, breath a bit hard but still even, rhythm speeding for a moment to make Scout squirm. âI go too long without doing this to him and he gets so needy. Heâd probably beg, if I made him wait too long. The way he begged for this tells me that much.â
âHeâs blushing,â Mick informed her with a breathless sort of chuckle, and she saw that his ears were indeed turning red. âPoor thing. Canât even defend himself with his mouth full.â
Scout made a quiet noise in the back of his throat that might have had something to do with the little extra roll Sniper put on the end of her next thrust, but Mick raised an eyebrow, pulling him back from his hair.
âSomethinâ to say, there?â he asked, hand falling to tip Scoutâs chin up, and Sniper heard the way he was panting and slowed down her thrusts, knowing how close he had to be if he was making that kind of noise on the exhale.
Scout panted for another few moments, and finally made a disgruntled noise, shifting his weight. Sniper had to move forward with him a little bit, and he choked on breath for a moment before he recovered enough to speak. âIf youâre gonna fuck my mouth, do it already,â he said, voice harder than expected. âAnd, and you can pull my hair harder than that.â
Sniper chuckled at Mickâs expression, slightly taken aback but clearly thrilled by this turn of events. âAlright then, get back down here,â he rumbled, and Scout did with enthusiasm, and then the pace was shifting.
She waited until Mick found his rhythm before she matched it, stepping up a notch, moving in double-time with the thrusts into Scoutâs mouth. The skin of their thighs slapped together and Scout made desperate little noises every few thrusts, clearly completely overwhelmed by the way heâd gone so lax she needed to hold up his hips some amount for him. She only stopped occasionally to try and catch her breath or to readjust, shifting to long, slow strokes aimed as best she could to drag mercilessly against his prostate, and Scout whined helplessly each time it happened, bucking for emphasis until she started back up into the speed sheâd had before again.
Mick seemed to sense something she didnâtâprobably aided by the fact that he could see Scoutâs face, feel his moaningâand told Scout to stroke himself. He did, moaning kicking up in pitch with his desperation, and that pushed Mick over the edge, swearing and fucking more roughly into Scoutâs mouth before he spilled with a hard shudder. Scout moaned his pleasure when he could get air, strokes slowing down as he focused on not choking, and then his mouth was freed and he was panting and groaning against Mickâs thigh, rocking more firmly back into Sniperâs thrusts.
âGonna come for me?â Sniper crooned in the sweet, teasing voice that always made him shiver when he was like this. âCâmon, we wanna see.â
Mick hummed in the affirmative, petting through his hair. Scoutâs head was tilted a bit now, and Sniper watched Mickâs thumb drawing across his bottom lip, watched Scoutâs eyebrows screw together with it, eyes falling closed, and Sniper filed it away as something she should try on him later. She moved to those long, firm strokes again, and Scout choked on nothing, going tense, jerking under her.
âGorgeous,â she praised, rocking once and twice more for good measure, and he unclenched his teeth enough to gasp at it, and then he was relaxing, breathing hard.
She pulled free slowly and carefully, and Scoutâs grunt of vague discomfort was muffled, Mick having leaned down to kiss him, still dominating but considerably more gentle than before. She left them to it as she stood to unclasp the harness, a little out of breath herself.
Sheâd only gotten one leg free when a pair of arms snaked around her waist, a familiar nose pressed into her hair, a breathless little chuckle fanning against her overheated neck. âHey, câmon, what about you?â Scout mumbled, half teasing and half hopeful.
She scoffed, but it was hard to get much feeling behind it. Seeing him like that, and the way the strap pressed against her as sheâd been fucking him, and how hot the whole situation was, it all added up to make her feel⊠well. A good bit more turned on than sheâd thought she would be. âWhat about me?â she asked, kicking free the rest of the way and trying not to separate from him.
âI want you to like this, too,â he said, and she jumped a little at the feeling of fingers trailing at her inner thigh.
âYou donât need to do that, Iâll beââ she started, and was cut off as her breath hitched, Scout having gotten bold enough to push his fingertips against her more firmly. Her exhale was shaky as he trailed his fingers against her, the slickness there under his callouses apparently taking both of them by surprise if Scoutâs little gasp was any indication.
âJesus,â Scout whispered, sounding a little awed, a little desperate. âCâmon, please? I canât just leave you like this, I wannaââ
âšHis index and middle fingers found either side of her clit, rubbing with just the right amount of pressure, and her knees threatened to buckle for a moment. âNgh,â was what she managed instead of a proper response, pulse hammering, and she gasped outright as Scoutâs other hand rose to cup and squeeze at her breast, making her arch. âChrist, I, fine, justââ
He nosed her hair aside, pressing a kiss into her neck and kneading at her just so, his own breathing a little shaky.
âWait,â she bit out, and he stopped, freezing in place.
That gave her time and brainpower to move, turning around and pushing him down onto the bed again, boxing him in with her legs before leaning down, kissing him absolutely silly. His noise of confusion morphed into a noise of contentment, hands finding her waist almost automatically. When she pulled away again a long moment, he was flushed and clearly a little dizzied, his lopsided smile on display. âThat a yes?â he asked, hopeful.
She glanced him up and down. âMostly Iâm just surprised youâre still up for more,â she admitted. âFigured weâd put you through the paces already.â
âNah,â he said, squeezing appreciatively for a moment. âYou know Iâm always up for more of whatever.â
âEven after getting fucked two ways in one go?â she asked, eyebrows raising.
âEspecially,â he admitted, head turning for a moment to glance at the other man, who admittedly sheâd almost forgotten about. Mick appeared to be about halfway through a cigarette, shamelessly ogling the two of them, making no attempt to cover himself up and grinning a little when she met his eyes.
Mick looked at her for a moment, then down at Scout, who she felt shift a little under her, clearly preening at the attention, at the heat there. Mick stretched his neck from one side to the other languidly and reached to tap out his cigarette before he looked back over at Sniper. âYouâve got rubbers, yeah?â he asked, raising an eyebrow at her. She nodded. âHow about I take back and you take front this round?â
She blinked, glancing him over, then down at Scout. She was honestly a little surprised to hear they were ready to go again already, having not expected much more than that first round and maybe an attempt to crowd into one mattress if Scout was feeling particularly needy after. But then she looked at his face, and Scout seemed to be trying his hardest to give her his best puppy eyes.

Scoutâs breathing was slow and even, eyes only half-open, limbs loose and relaxed as he leaned back against Sniper, eyes focused on the little screen a few feet away from them. Youâd think he was falling asleep there if not for a few other facts.
His hard-on, his lack of pants, and his very careful placement in Sniperâs lap.
Not very long into him sinking into place and settling to rest there, the urgency and desperation had crested, falling to a buzz beneath his skin, making it prickle with sensitivity, making him feel almost light-headed. It felt almost like the moment after an Uber-Charge wore off. It felt almost like being high, but slower, gentler.
One of Sniperâs hands was tracing over his lower stomach, fingers trailing up through the hair there, motions both soothing him and rousing his nerves.
He turned his head to try and look at the clock. It had been somewhere in the ballpark of twenty minutes already, almost thirty. It felt like it had been longer than that, like heâd been there for hours just enjoying this pleasure, warm and content andâ
A pair of lips against his neck distracted him from his thoughts, drew a sigh out of him, a slight shift of weight into the feeling, and his breath caught alongside a huff of air against his skin. God, Sniper was so hard inside him, practically throbbing, and the reminder made his own desperation tick up a few notches.
But then Sniperâs chin was back against his shoulder, hand returning to comb calloused fingers against his skin gently, and it faded back into a thrum of background noise again.
Time passed, and he was drawn back out of his own head again at the feeling of Sniper shifting slightly, and then his hands were trailing along the inside of his thighs, rubbing palms against the warm skin there, squeezing lightly. Scout realized he was holding his breath, and didnât dare look down, knowing that if he did, Sniper might stop.
So suddenly that it tore a noise from his throat, a hand around his dick, a thumb tracing against the head. It was slick, slick enough that he realized heâd been leaking precum for a while by then. That thumb spread the slickness around, slow and steady, almost aimlessly, before the hand returned to his thigh, holding on there, steady and warm.
He waited for his breathing to fall back under control again, but it didnât, not for one minute, two, five. âSnipes,â he managed, voice just above a whisper.
âMhm,â Sniper hummed, voice a low rumble.
âI really wanna come,â he admitted, voice ragged.
Another hum, and silence for a few minutes. Then shifting, the hands on his thighs moving from steadying to lifting, adjusting, and god, it really wouldnât take much. âGo on,â Sniper said in a similarly rough voice, urged him along with a light rock, and that was all the permission Scout needed. He started to roll his hips, and was shocked at how fast he could tumble over the edge if he really wanted to, but hell, heâd drawn this out for so long already, he could last a bit longer.
But then Sniperâs hand was back on him, tugging in steady motions, and he couldnât have held on for a second longer even if he wanted to. He jerked, gasping hard, and cried out at the feeling of Sniper thrusting up into him once, twice, throwing him hard from pleasure up into ecstasy, overwhelming him in an instant.
When he came back down to earth, Sniperâs hands were on his thighs again, resting there more than anything else. Scout shifted up, made a bitten-off noise of displeasure at the discomfort of parting, and then he was sitting again, trying to catch his breath.
âDonât fall asleep on me,â Sniper warned, as if he didnât sound half-asleep himself.
âI wonât,â Scout mumbled, and relaxed back into another kiss pressed briefly to his neck. And they could clean up in a few minutes, he just wanted to sit there for a little bit longer.
Hiya! Would you mind doing one about Pyro x Scout? Like a top Pyro and bottom Scout and the plot could be that Scout and Pyro were in a date at a baseball game and things go from there
i need to write more pyro/scout its a great break slate sorta deal
(warnings for mentioning potential vouyerism)
-
âThereâsângh!âa j-joke here, about, runninâ the bases, but Iâm, Iâm not gonna try and stretch for it,â Scout laughed breathlessly, flushed from the tips of his ears straight down to his collarbones, half-glancing over his shoulder towards Pyro.
Pyro, in turn, mumbled right back something along the lines of âyouâre already stretching for itâ, making him bark out a real laugh a moment before he was left gasping, head dropping forward again.
In the bathroom of a stadium during a baseball game was probably not among their best ideas, when it came to places to do this. But to be fair, it wasnât like it was, like, a major rivalry game or anything, the stadium wasnât all that crowded and the door creaked like a motherfucker and nobody was exactly busting down doors trying to catch people boning in the second to last stall.
Pyro rolled their hips again, murmured in a questioning tone, and Scout nodded, breathed, shifted his stance a little before finally just kicking one leg free of his pants and bracing himself better with one foot up on the toilet seat, and finally assured them that yeah, heâs good, just get on with it.
And he had to bite the inside of his cheek to keep quiet when they wrapped hands more firmly around his hips and did just that, rolling once and twice to make sure things were really alright before just starting straight in on a hard rhythm.
He focused on the feeling of the tile against his forearms, the muffled sound of the announcer outside, the brief roar of the crowd as something apparently happened, anything to keep this from being a three-minute sorta situation. And yeah, he didnât exactly want this to take too long, but he didnât want to leave Pyro hanging in any sense of the word either.
But, like, damn. Pyro knew what he liked, knew he liked these sort of hard, steady motions, knew to squeeze tight with their hands, knew just the right angle of hips to make his breath catch, to make him really have to fight to stay quiet.
Fuck, he barely even remembered what started this. Pyro hadnât really explained. Just something about him looking good in regular people clothes. And then the two of them were going to grab something from concessions, then Pyro hooking onto his arm and tugging him into the bathrooms and him being wildly confused up until the exact moment that the door was locked and they slid their hands into his back pockets.
He was brought back into his head by the feeling of Pyro pressing a brief kiss against his back through his shirt, and fuck, he couldnât help himself, he reached down to start tugging himself off. And Pyro stifled a laugh into his shoulder at the needy little sound he made, but it couldnât quell the rising tide, couldnât push down the urgency.
âI knew you liked baseball, but this is a little much, donât you think?â Pyro asked, and he could hear that they were smiling and out of breath, and he went to make a joke back but then the pace was picking up just slightly, and they made a little noise in the back of their throat, andâ
âF-fuck,â he choked out, urgency in his tone, and Pyro picked up on it, thrust once, twice, three and then finally four times with just that much more force and he was gone, spilling into his own hand, the roar of blood in his ears almost drowning out the roar of the crowd.
And he felt Pyro pull out, heard their own bitten-back groan as they finished themself off. and then they were both just panting faintly, trying to get their heads together.
âBetter clean up before I get banned from a stadium again,â Scout managed. âRight after I get a home run, too.â
And Pyro laughed, and he grinned, and he didnât get kicked out of a stadium.

Once, heâd asked Spy why heâd started smoking. And it wasnât that he had no idea why people smoked, he understood perfectly wellâmostly, he was curious about whether there was a particular reason, be it people around him smoking, or to cope with stress, or for any other reason. And apparently it was the third option, as Spy had flippantly, casually replied that he simply had something of an oral fixation and this was how he dealt with it.
That memory came back to him now, here, in a completely different situation, and it was no wonder why.
Spy snubbed his cigarette out and left it balanced precariously on the ashtray as his attention turned more fully to the Engineer, roused from his idle smoking and appreciation of the silence by his loverâs hand tickling through his chest hair. He murmured some phrase that was lost to the skin and stubble just beneath the Engineerâs jaw, kissing and nipping lightly enough to avoid causing marks but not so lightly as to be ticklish.
Had he not been told about Spyâs habit, he wouldâve written it off as being something related to his status as a Frenchman. Instead his affinity for kissing over any given bare piece of skin that he had within his line of sight read as a different kind of endearing.
âYouâre startinâ something here, darl, you best be prepared to finish it,â he warned lowly, teasingly.
âMm,â he hummed sweetly against the Engineerâs jugular, giving it a parting peck before pulling back enough to give him a smile. âIâm not entirely sure Iâm prepared for any more of your attentions tonight, mon cher, but Iâd be more than happy to be the one doing the pleasing, if thatâs why youâre implying.â
âIt is now,â he growled, and knew heâd done it right when Spy chuckled as he was flipped onto his back and his arms were pulled up over his head.
He hadnât gotten dressed in the slightest, and as it had done many nights before, it was paying off.
âThink you could handle me, just like this?â he asked, holding both of his wrists comfortably but firmly in place with the Gunslinger and using his other hand to trace meaningfully across Spyâs bottom lip with his thumb. Spy not only nodded, he went so far as to tilt his head up further to press a sweet kiss to the pad of his thumb, nipping at it almost playfully as he pulled away. âAlright, you asked for it.â
It only took a few moments of stroking himself to get back into shape enough to give Spy something nice to suck on, and he did, with gusto. He was left only able to help support Spyâs head and neck as Spy took over the moment he was within reach, mouthing at the crown and taking him deeper into his mouth in a way that could only be described as naturally, like falling back into a rhythm.
Spy had said before, more than a little smugly, that his skill at giving head came from a place of practice and experience. The Engineer would argue that it didnât hurt that he clearly loved it so much.
âGorgeous,â he panted, unsure of when exactly he started getting short of breath, and Spy hummed, clearly pleased, eyelashes fluttering a little bit with it.
He couldnât help himself, starting to roll his hips forward in rhythm with the bobbing and sucking Spy had started in on, and that made him hum again, this time in encouragement. And he could see the mix of concentration and dreaminess in Spyâs expression, the determination and spaciness, the conscious grounding as he lost himself in the action, in the rhythm, in the pleasure. The way he flicked his tongue just so when he pulled almost all the way back was out of skill and also passion, and the way he swallowed hard whenever he could manage was because he knew it would make the Engineer sweat and also because he loved it.
And Engie tried to pull away when he felt the edge creeping dangerously close, but Spy protested with a more urgent hum, tugging as if to free his hands and leaning back up to take him back into his mouth, and that was all the permission the Engineer needed to rock forward and finally spill with a groan of defeat.
And Spy was licking his lips by the time heâd opened his eyes, and that made him shiver, releasing his wrists and moving to lie back down on the bed with practically shaking limbs.
âYou flatter me, mon cher, I know my skills are good, but surely they arenât that good,â Spy teased, stroking fingers against his upper chest, entirely too pleased with himself despite his words.
âNot my fault Iâm in love with a man with an oral fixation,â he joked, and earned a scoff for his trouble, and that was how he knew he did it right.

It was so much, too much, way too much, he couldnât do this but he couldnât stop, either.
If the ropes around his wrist were less soft he was sure theyâd have chafed them to shreds by now with how much he was struggling, and he was sure the gag would have teeth marks in it by the end of the night, and he was so loud despite that gag that he didnât even know the point of it.
Maybe this was the point, to get him this loud even through the gag.
Scout had said something pretty early on, and it had set his heart to sinking down somewhere near his toes. That, well, was Sniper really actually enjoying any of this? Because he was always just so quiet, and it made him worried that he was doing something wrong, or just not quite right enough. And heâd said no, of course it was good, it was fantastic, heâd just... never quite been able to manage loud in his life. Or noise at all, really. He always felt too...
And it took days of pushing and prodding to get to the end of the sentence, and even then Sniper was nearly too red-faced for it, practically shut down for the entire rest of the day.
Too self-conscious.
And Scout liked to push him, to tease him. Had managed not only to get Sniper to admit that the idea of people tied up in bed was nice, but that heâd like for someone to do it to him, which was a miracle on its own. And there were times when Scout had him strung up and strung out and desperate that he managed words, almost even managed noise.
But this was different, this was so much more. Usually Scout edged him a good bit, and it was lovely, made his head spin and his limbs heavy in the afterglow and his sleep deeper than he could ever manage on his own. It wasnât often, though, that Scout trussed him up like this, gag and all, and rode him slow and steady and sweet and far too lovely to last,
and just kept going.
Sensitivity had taken hold fast, made him dizzy and electrified, sending tension through his body and making him cry out wordlessly that no, it wasâhe wasâitâfuckâ
But those slow, steady rolls just continued, Scout not pausing for even a moment, and he had no idea how long passed before the nearly painful amount of overstimulation subsided back into pleasure, only that it still felt like so much, almost too much to bear.
And he knew there was an easy way out of this. All he needed to do was snap his fingers once to get Scout to slow down and take the gag off, and twice if he wanted to stop entirely. But... Scout looked so lovely like this, absolutely in his element with each roll of hips and quiet groan of pleasure and quiet praise that he was doing so well, so good, so good for him, just a little longer, just a little more.
And he could go just a little longer, a little more. He could. He knew he could. He could be good.
And he felt some kind of distant amazement at himself as he felt the edge tumbling into view again, much faster than heâd ever thought possible, and he tried to groan a warning at first, but then it escalated into whimpers, into whines, into outright moans as his hips jittered and he came again, weaker this time.
And still Scout didnât stop, and those moans turned into pleading noises, into gasps, and he didnât realize he was sobbing until he tears clouded his view of Scout, trickling down his face and dampening his hair.
âSo good, doll, youâre doing so good,â Scout praised, breath uneven, eyes hazy, expression glowing with a kind of satisfaction that reached beyond just sexual need, and it made his breath catch all the harder. âYou need me to stop?â
And he gasped for air, for clarity, and managed to shake his head no, squeezing his eyes shut.
An âawwâ from Scout, the feeling of him shifting his weight, and lips pressing in gentle pecks down the tear tracks. âItâs a lot, huh?â he said sympathetically, and Sniper nodded, voice settling back into whimpers for the moment, every exhale carrying that little note of noise. âYouâre doinâ so good for me. Such a good job. Youâre so brave, doll, really.â
And that made him shiver for a different reason, sent tremors through him only somewhat related to the total overload going through his nervous system. And Scout quieted those shivers with soft strokes of his hands down his biceps where they were pulled taut over his head, down his ribs and back up his chest before he planted his balance and went into a harder rhythm.
âYou can do one more,â Scout seemed to decide, and his eyes shot open, and he gazed up pleadingly, because no, he couldnât, there was no way. âCâmon, just one more, I know you can do it.â
He couldnât, he couldnât, he could bear this but he couldnât come again, he didnât have it in him, already this was so much, too much, already his head was spinning and his limbs were heavy with pins and needles and it was so, so much, he just couldnâtâ
But Scout was gasping, eyebrows furrowed in concentration, and finally his hand dropped to tug at himself, and that rhythm sped just slightly and he just kept saying it over and over. âOne more, babe, câmon, one more,â like a mantra, like a plead, and suddenly the overwhelming sensation was cresting in him and taking him up and up and up and he couldnât stop it even if he wanted to.
And he screamed when he came, a few times, short bursts, hard yanks at his hands that he was sure mustâve almost sent Scout toppling, but he couldnât tell over the roaring of his own blood in his ears, the hormones swirling through him and making him practically black out.
And he was pretty sure he did black out for a second, because all of a sudden the gag wasnât in his mouth and his hands were untied and Scout was snuggled in next to him and he couldnât remember any of that.
And he didnât even have time to clear his throat before Scout was gingerly pressing his canteen into his hand, and he drank from it until he couldnât tip it any further with his trembling hands, and then he did clear his throat and realized how raw his voice was.
âSorry. That was loud,â he managed, voice even more gravelly than usual.
And Scout kissed him, a gentle thing there at his collarbone, and he could just barely catch the corner of his smile in his periphery. âEh. Weâll get you louder,â he said like a promise, and god, he didnât know how, but all at once he really hoped so.

-
Scout was perfectly aware of the fact that he was in this mess because he didnât know when to shut up and when to leave well enough alone. He knew that. He was aware.
Because thatâs the thing, it was so easyâhell, so fun to get a rise out of any given member of the team. Engie, Heavy, Soldier (assuming he could get away again before Soldier could catch him and make him do push-ups or some shit), any given member of the team was so fun to piss off. It was just so much more entertaining to piss off the Alphas in particular.
And for the life of him he just couldnât seem to get Sniper to crack.
It had started with just annoying the man, then truly trying to get on his nerves with assorted jabs and pranks and other minor problems. And then it had escalated, and he figured, well, what better way to rile him up than to flirt? That would really drive him up the wall.
And it took him probably longer to notice than it shouldâve, the fact that he wasnât just interested in Sniper in regards to pissing him off, but also just interested in Sniper. But he figured it out, and leaned into it further.
Just words, at first, then standing much closer than he needed to, lingering touches to Sniperâs shoulder, his arm. Winking, leaning past him to get things, spending time in Sniperâs sight line between matches. No response. No rebuttal.
Finding Sniper off away from the team, out of sight, and flirting more overtly. Picking lint that didnât exist from the collar of his shirt, visibly giving him once-overs, making idle filthy comments and jokes that would be enough to make even Medic blush, probably.
He caught a tightness to Sniperâs jaw, a flushed tint to his face, his grip on his gun going white-knuckled before he turned away to ignore Scout some more.
And still spending the rest of his time with the same quiet ease and confidence as always. Never bothering with the ridiculous dick-measuring contests the other Alphas tended to get into, ignoring the squabbling like he was above it all. God, it got on Scoutâs nerves. Heâd show him.
This was one of his more harebrained ideas, to be honest. He didnât tend to, uh, âtake care of himselfâ on base anymore after a firm complaint about how the Omega scent spreading through the base put just about everyone on edge. He tended to just take a ride out to some boulder landmark a mile or so out from base to handle it, maybe grab something to eat on the way back.
But this time in particular heâd had the whole mood of it ruined by how goddamn hot it was, and one too many cars driving by, and finally the fact that at one point he blinked his eyes open and noticed a big fuckoff spider on the windshield crawling steadily towards him.
So heâd given up and resigned himself to being frustrated and out of sorts all day, but then on the drive back in heâd seen the glint of the barrel of a rifle in the watchtower and gotten an idea.
It wasnât as bad as in a closed room, but he knew he still would have to take a shower and change his clothes if he wanted to seem at all presentable, he knew his smell was probably strong, heady.
He climbed the ladder with the widest smirk he could ever recall having, feeling just a little bit giddy.
âHey, Snipes,â Scout greeted once he was up. Sniper didnât even turn to look at him, raising a hand in a careless wave before returning it to his gun. A pause. âWhatâs up?â
A nothing sort of hum, and silence again,
â...Whatâre you doinâ up here?â Scout asked more outright, hands shoved in his pockets, still grinning.
âWatch duty,â Sniper replied dryly. âSoldier seems to think we need to. Only way to get him to pipe down is to do a shift every now and then and come up with nothing.â
âUh huh.â Scout took a few more steps forward. âMust be wicked boring.â
Another hum that didnât say much of anything. Scout rolled his eyes, moving forward further after a second.
âMight be nice to, yâknow, have something to do,â he said, tone suggestive.
Another hum. He resisted the urge to grit his teeth, moving to lean just to one side of Sniper.
â...Like, this just seems wicked boring is all,â Scout shrugged.
An exhale from Sniper. âScout, go get your kicks somewhere else, awright? Iâm not in the mood for yourââ
He stopped talking. Inhaled, exhaled. His brows were furrowed. Scout watched him sniff once, twice, casting off to one side, then finally he looked at Scout, visibly shocked.
He saw Sniperâs throat bob with a swallow. He tried to keep his smile in check.
âNot in the mood for my what?â he prompted.
âReally?â Sniper asked, tone not as firm as Scout had come to expect. âThis is your idea of how to get a rise out of me? This?â
âWhat do you mean?â Scout asked faux-innocently. âIâm just standinâ here. What, you want me to leave?â
Sniper was staring at him. His mouth was a hard line. âThis isnât going to work,â Sniper said, voice flat.
âYouâre gonna have to be more specific, I dunno what youâre talkinâ about,â Scout replied easily.
âThis stunt of yours. If you think itâs that easy to get me jealous, youâve got another thing coming.â
A pause, then Scoutâs eyebrows furrowed. Heâd been trying to make Sniper a lot of things, but jealous wasnât really one of them. âWait, what?â
âNo, I get it, awright, you have no idea what Iâm talking about,â Sniper scoffed sarcastically, glaring back down his scope. âJust bugger off already, mate, Iâve got work to do. And even nonsense work is better than any of the buggery you decide to throw at me.â
âNo, wait, Iâm being serious here, why the fuck would you be jealous?â Scout demanded.
Sniper exhaled hard enough to almost qualify as a sigh. âYou just want to rile me up with this and the other flirting nonsense,â he mumbled. âYou try to get me hot and bothered and upset, knowing full well you wonât go through with it, then you run off to work it out of your system with your Alpha in town and probably laugh it up the whole way there.â
A beat. âMy what?â
âYour âsecret boyfriendâ, in town,â Sniper drawled, making air quotes. âThe one you got once the blokes got on your case about stinking up the whole bloody base twice a week.â
Scout blinked. âWh... what? Iâm not taken, man. What the fuck are you talkinâ about?â
Sniper turned his head to glare at him. âMate, you want me to believe youâre not bonded when you head off base on the weekly for hours at a time and hog the only phone on base all the time?â
Scout pulled down the collar of his shirt. âUh, yeah. You see a mark here? I head off base to get fast food and I call home to my brothers and Ma. I donât have some civvie guy. Youâd fuckinâ smell the guy, wouldnât you?â
Sniperâs eyebrows were furrowed again. âCanât ever smell much except the seven other blokes we work with and the nine we kill for a living, to be honest,â he mumbled.
âYeah, well, no. Iâve been single since before I worked here. Whole fuckinâ time.â
âNo partner? Not even a casual type?â Sniper asked, eyes narrowing.
âNo, not even a one-off kinda situation, not for like, months.â
Sniper stared at him. And this entire conversation was stupid as all hell, but on the other hand, Sniper was staring at him, and something about the slope of his shoulders told Scout that he was at least a little bit upset, and that made Scoutâs pulse pound, blood heat, face flush.
âThen why do you keepââ Sniper started to ask, and cut himself off. âYou...â
Sniper stared at him for a long few moments. Rose to his feet. His rifle clattered just a bit as he set it down against the wall. For some reason, it made Scoutâs heart skip a beat.
âThis whole bloody time youâve just been trying to get a rise out of me,â Sniper said, not a question, a statement of fact.
Scout swallowed hard, nodded, paused. âI mean, yeah, basically,â he agreed. âUh. Yeah I dunno I just, I figured...â
How was it that he suddenly couldnât seem to make his brain and mouth work at the same speed? Maybe it had something to do with the fact that Sniper was a good bit taller than him, and his voice had gotten awfully low for a second there.
He tried again. âIt was just that I thought youâdââ
âThought Iâd what?â Sniper asked, voice hard, and it made Scout shiver, then a moment later he finally caught the slightest amount of Sniperâs scentâ
And it was just that usually it was buried under everything else, everyone else on the team and the other team and gunsmoke and blood and heat and dust, and now he could finally smell it clearly enough to pick out that Sniper wasâ
Pissed off was a word he could use. But underneath that there was something heady, and it made him feel almost dizzy.
âThought youâd figure it out sooner,â Scout said quietly, and wished his voice wasnât so squeaky.
The sound of boots thunking hard against wood as Sniper moved to close the distance between them.
Scout backed up on instinct, a flare of intimidation crossing his nervous system like a gust of wind, and in a moment he was boxed into the corner of the watchtower, and the smell of anger and something else was so strong now it made his whole head spin.
And Sniper leaned in and down, nosed in against his neck, and he breathed in long and deep, exhaled slowly. Scratched stubble against Scoutâs jaw as he tilted his head back up to align his mouth with Scoutâs ear, and it made Scout jerk, hands snaring in the front of Sniperâs shirt. His pulse was pounding hard, and he knew it had to be obvious how much of a mess he was.
âWould you rather we make our way back to the base or my camper before I rip you apart,â he asked, voice low and steady, âor should I just fuck you here?â
âHere,â was what Scout tried to say, but the first few attempts came out as whines, and finally he gave up and moved to latch onto Sniperâs neck, starting to fight with the buttons of the other manâs shirt.
Sniperâs hands gripped him around the waist, hefting him enough to lift and bodily pin him against the wall with a curse that sounded like it was halfway to a snarl. Scout helped to support his own weight with legs around his hips, distracted from his half-frantic efforts to get Sniper naked by hands groping their way up his thighs and a hum of approval against the side of his head, breath hot on his cheek.
And then Sniper was kissing him, hard, leaving no room for breath or hesitation, demanding access to his mouth rather than asking for it, and this intensity was just so new that it made Scoutâs pulse hammer. And Scoutâs hands faltered, from trying to get Sniperâs shirt off to clinging at it helplessly, to trying to inhale enough to make any kind of sound that would let Sniper know just how good this all felt, and it very much didnât work.
A hand at his belt, yanking it open hard enough to make Scout almost wince, and then similar rough motions between them before Scout was bodily shifted in such a way that Sniper ground forward hard against him, echoing Scoutâs pleased groan.
âFuck,â Scout managed in the centimeter of space between them, only for it to warp into a muffled moan as Sniper claimed his mouth again, one hand sliding down the back of Scoutâs pants and gripping one cheek in his hand, humming appreciatively.
Then his hand shifted, trailing down further, two fingertips teasing between his cheeks like a promise. âYouâre a bloody mess,â Sniper rumbled against the corner of his mouth, and it made Scout flush up to his ears, because god damn it, but he was right. He was probably practically soaking through his briefs. And he went to complain, to say well, if he would get the hell on with it, but Sniper rolled his hips forward again and his hand moved further down and all at once his index finger slid up to the second knuckle all in one go and it made him jolt, keen, head falling back to thunk against the wall. âLoud, too. Donât know what else I expected from you.â
Then there was another finger teasing at him, making his breath stutter, making his eyes flutter shut, and immediately following that, a growl that rumbled through him and shook him like an earthquake.
âLook at me,â Sniper demanded, and he did, couldnât help it, and there was fire there behind Sniperâs gaze, something furious and possessive and fucking hot. It simmered down a few notches as Scout tried his damndest to rock forward against him, making more pleased little noises. âI donât have a rubber on me.â
âIâm on suppressants,â Scout said, âjust, câmon. Quit teasinâ.â
âNeedy thing,â Sniper murmured, and his teethâever-so-slightly sharp, enough that Scout had noticed itâscraped just so against the sensitive skin of his neck below his jaw, down further until Scout practically whimpered. âBet youâd practically beg if I asked you to.â
âDonât you make me,â Scout warned, and wished he couldâve said it without his voice wavering, and felt heat flare through him as Sniper just chuckled, and his hands withdrew enough to heft Scout bodily.
And then he was on his back on the floor, and Sniper was at his neck, pulling him free of his pants and gripping briefly at the bulge at the front of his briefs, making him jolt and gasp. And he wasnât even free of his damn socks and shoes as he kicked off his pants and moved to wrap his legs around Sniper, pulling him down closer, closer still, breath coming uneven through parted lips. And Sniper had to position teeth over his windpipe like a threat to make him pull back, at least enough for Sniper to get his own pants down, and then Scout was back again, trying to hook Sniper back in, get more, still more. Anything.
âIâm ready, câmon,â Scout urged, and would be ashamed later of how whiny he sounded, because in the meantime he was overwhelmed with sensation at the feeling of Sniper teasing at him with subtle rolls of his hips, not quite enough force to slip in, just enough to make him want it. And then when he did push in, Scout had to bite his lip to quiet the moan that tried to tear free of his chest, had to close his eyes against the onset of sensation as he tried to sort out everything enough to be coherent.
âGood,â Sniper praised lowly, and continued to roll his hips just so, being such a fucking tease that it was kind of driving him insane but at the same time this felt too good to stop for even just a second.
And even as he rolled into something like proper motion, it made Scout keen, squeezing his eyes shut, because god damn it, he could still tell Sniper was holding back. He had a grip behind Scoutâs knees, pushing them up towards his chest, and his expression was screwed up in concentration, and it felt so good but it wasnât what he wanted, he wanted harder and faster, he wanted Sniper to tear into him already.
And he squirmed against Sniperâs hands, voice fraught with groans and choked words, and Sniper smirked down at him. âImpatient,â he chided breathlessly, and Scout arched and gasped against a series of much harder thrusts only to practically whimper at Sniper slowing back down again a moment later. And that was when Scout realized he really was trying to make Scout beg.
And like hell he would.
Instead, he drew Sniper down and in with a kiss, with gentle nips just below the jaw, only to hook an arm up over his neck and roll him bodily to one side with the strength all that running and jumping ended up giving him.
And he only took a second to appreciate the view of Sniper laid out beneath him looking rumbled and a little dizzied before he planted his hands on Sniperâs chest to pin him in place and started to ride him like he was absolutely made for it.
It took a bit for Sniper to get his head together enough to start rolling up in time, groaning out praise and running appreciative hands up Scoutâs thighs. And Scout very much enjoyed the visual of Sniperâs head rolling back when he sank as far as he could go and just rocked slightly, sighing with pleasure at the feeling of it.
âThis is my show now,â he panted down at Sniper, feeling a thrill all the way up his spine at the idea of having him laid out like this so easily. âIâm in charge.â
âWhatever helps you sleep at night,â Sniper teased just as breathlessly, smirking again, and Scout scowled, determined to fuck that smug look off his face.
But he was also getting close, and the need to save his pride and the need to finish were both crowding into the forefront of his mind and grappling for his attention, and Sniper slid one hand to start pumping at him like he meant it and the other to rake nails down his thighs and actually he was starting to get worried that he wasnât going to last like this.
And it was a haze, a blur, the rush of blood in his ears and pleasure up and down his back and his own hard breathing, his own uncontrollable stammering, saying câmon, câmon, just fucking knot him already câmonâ
And then oh, fuck, did he. Sniper rolled his hips up hard, took hold of Scoutâs waist in a bruising grip and yanked, and then he was being knotted and filled up and heâd find the energy to be embarrassed later about the half-yelp half-whimper that tore free of his throat at the feeling of it, and he came hard into Sniperâs hand.
And he teetered but managed to catch himself before he fell over, just barely managing to keep himself propped up in the wake of it, fucked practically out of his mind and left dizzy in the wake of it. Eventually Sniper managed to coax him into relaxing forward, head pillowed on his chest, both of them just breathing heavily and trying to pull themselves together.
He saw Sniper fumbling out of the corner of his eye to pick up Scoutâs shirt from where it had landed, cleaning off his hand, and he wouldâve complained if he had the energy for it but instead he just groaned. Sniper glanced down at him, free hand petting through his hair. âIâve just made it all the more likely that youâll waste my time trying to get a rise out of me, havenât I?â he mumbled, sounding slightly annoyed.
âRise, no,â Scout murmured back, managing a little wink. âRide, absolutely.â
And little did Sniper know that the slap on the arm he got for his joke would be counted as a win for Scout, too.
Sniper after acquiring a French-English dictionary: :)
yeah this is where weâre at
(warnings for the fact that scout really thought he was gonna get away with just never telling sniper what words translate to and also potentially bad french)
-
âSpy, do you happen to have a translation dictionary?â Sniper asked, pausing as he passed by the open door to Spyâs smoking room. His eyebrows were furrowed just slightly, and his shoulders slouched.
âTo translate unclear requests into something human beings say? Unfortunately, no. It would come in handy at the moment,â Spy replied without looking up from his work dusting off some of the picture frames at the far wall.
âI need a French-English one. Your sonâs being... frustrating,â he clarified after a moment. âHe keeps switching over into French to say things to me, then not bothering to tell me what he said and refusing to tell me what it means.â
âSimple solution: stop talking to my son,â Spy chimed pleasantly, still not turning around.
Sniper set his jaw. âLook, I can tell heâs upset about something, and maybe if I knew what he was saying more than half the time, Iâd be able to figure out what,â he said outright.
Spy was quiet for a few moments. Hung the picture heâd been polishing off back on the wall. Tilted it just so until it was straight. âAnd what makes you think youâre the one who needs to solve this particular puzzle?â he inquired.
âIâd like to try, at least,â Sniper mumbled, shrugging, glancing off to one side.
A hum, then a considerable pause, then Spy was moving to the next picture frame, tilting a few books out of place on his bookshelf on the way. âIâd like them back in one piece by this time tomorrow, if Iâm not in here then leave them on my desk,â he said, tone crisp, and Sniper hurried to take the books before he changed his mind.
And it would help if the French had any common sense about how consonants and vowels strung together, he needed to glance through at least two of their indexes before he even had a concept of what any of the words would sort of somewhat sound like, and then he was fighting with the reference on sentence structure for some time until he gave in and figured heâd have better luck just flipping through to find the words he needed.
âTuâ was âyouâ, apparently, which made sense. âJe veuxâ was âI wantâ, which also made sense, that was one that he heard a good amount of. âBienâ was âgoodâ. And that was all he could learn from a few of the books without scanning the pages individually.
It took him an hour total to become frustrated enough to think about asking for help from one of the other more book-smart mercenaries, but he quickly abandoned the idea. He was fairly sure Scout was lying when he said what the phrases meant, but on the off chance that it was true, he didnât want to air out their more private activities to the entire goddamn team.
He ended up scanning through the singular English-to-French dictionary heâd been given, deciding to just go down the list to try to memorize enough to at least call Scout out when he next lied.
âStopâ was âarrĂȘtezâ, or some variation of it. âMy mouthâ was âmon boucheâ, âmy hairâ was âmon cheveuxâ, âmy faceâ was âmon visageâ, all of which were phrases he did actually faintly remember hearing at some point, but not nearly as often as Scout claimed to say them.
He ended up finding âJâadoreâ, which was apparently the beginning of the sentence. It meant âI loveâ, which made Sniper blink, and he realized all at once that Scout had really just been downplaying whatever it was that he was saying, because never once had he repeated that particular part of the phrase in English. At most, he simplified it down to him wanting something, or a few things.
And then he looked down at the line below that, and saw âJe tâaimeâ, and saw what that meant, and his heart nearly stopped.
Heâd said that phrase before. Often, several times, so many several times, always so quietly, often not able to look him in the eye.
âI love youâ, over and over, and he never knew. Never.
And he didnât even have time to figure out what to do with that, either, because he rolled the phrase over in his head again and again as he set the books away in a bag to bring with him to base the next day when he went in for breakfast, and heâd only just turned on the kettle to make himself some coffee and calm down when there was a knock at the door, and of course it was Scout (it was always Scout), and of course he let him in (because Scout knew how to pick locks and would get in either way), and of course they ended up tangled up with each other, Scout trailing his lips up the arch of Sniperâs neck and mouthing there with purpose.
And then Scout was laid out below him in the dim light of evening, eyes half-lidded and face flushed and his lips parted around panting and gasping breaths like every pin-up Sniper had ever been fond of rolled into something new and real that made his chest ache. And despite Scoutâs fingernails against his back and the way he choked out pleads for harder and more, to bite him, to play rough, this time he didnât listen. This time he kept his hips rolling slow and steady, this time he grit his teeth and pulled his self-control together enough to draw this out and stay more gentle than he almost ever was.
And it was when he was mouthing at Scoutâs chest absently, head spinning and breath coming hard, that Scoutâs constant yet incoherent murmuring solidified into a phrase he knew.
âJe tâaime, je tâaime...â Scout practically whimpered, voice catching, steady like a mantra, and it made Sniper swear hard. âJe tâaime, fuck, Iâm so fucking closeââ
And then Scout spilled all over his own and Sniperâs stomach, fingernails digging in hard enough to hurt, and then they were releasing, and then Sniper was sliding out to finish himself off in hard, quick strokes.
And then Scout was drawing him back up, ignoring the mess, mouthing at his neck again and humming a noise of contentment, and he said it again. âJe tâaime,â he half-whispered, tone teasing, and Sniper knew the script by then, knew he was meant to ask what that meant, knew he was supposed to nod and hum thoughtfully at whatever clearly incorrect and very joking answer Scout gave, and then he was supposed to kiss Scout for as long as both of them could stay awake and not complain when Scout woke up not long after that and got up and got dressed to leave.
Instead, he quietly asked âYou do?â, and Scout slowly pulled back to look at him with furrowed eyebrows.
âI do... what?â he mumbled, blinking.
âYou love me?â Sniper asked.
Silence. After about five seconds of that complete silence, Scout moved to get up.
Another second or two for Sniper to realize what he was doing. âScout?â he asked, confused.
With efficiency, he watched Scout pull on his briefs and pants where theyâd been abandoned next to the bed. He then started wrestling with his shirt, visibly trying to yank it on quickly.
âScout, donât,â Sniper tried, words a jumble in his mind, âyou donâtââ
âShuttup,â Scout all but spat through gritted teeth, finally getting his shirt on over his head and starting to shove his feet into his shoes.
âScout,â he tried again, but that was when he gave up and just picked the shoes up with a hard sigh, storming out of the camper and slamming the door of it behind him.
-
An hour later Sniper took the stack of books with him back to base, hoping to drop them off so he could maybe try to get some sleep, already seeing himself sitting up every twenty minutes to flip back through to look at that page again, look at that phrase again, just to check to make sure he knew what it meant. And frankly he couldnât afford to be up all night dealing with this, he had work in the morning and needed to be alert, so better to hand them in and get some rest and deal with it in the morningâassuming he could find Scout, at least.
And he knocked on the door to the smoking room, pushed it open at the âyes?â that came from within, and peered around it to catch sight of Spy sitting in the far chair with a glass of some kind of whiskey, eyebrows raised at him.
âCame by to return these,â he mumbled, ducking in and avoiding eye contact, making his way over to the desk across the room. âI âppreciate you lending them to me, but Iâve... I donât need them now.â
âOh?â Spy asked in one of those odd tones that made it clear he was probably judging you, and Sniper managed not to flinch at it.
âI know itâs late, Iâll... Iâll just leave them and go,â he said, putting the books on the desk and turning around, shooting a glance at Spy and finally catching that his expression was slightly different than the sarcastic surprise he usually went with, eyebrows just a bit too high, eyes just a touch too wide. Then he caught the way Spy glanced off towards the other armchair, then finally caught sight of Scout curled up in it, knees close to his chest, not quite visible from the door, wearing a similar expression to Spy.
Well, not exactly. His eyes were a little bit wider, and reddened, and his hair was mussed and damp like heâd just taken a shower, and he was in a pair of pajamas Sniper hadnât ever seenâneither of them generally bothered getting into pajamas before they turned in for the night, usually just getting dressed and heading back to the place they were meant to be sleeping. They looked soft.
Spy was the one to break the silence and stillness over the room, eyebrows raising an increment further as he stood and moved to the door, handing Scout what was left of his own drink on the way out. The two of them had a short, whispered argument in what sounded like Spanishâor rather Scout had an argument and Spy just hummed out a phrase or two before getting to the door and shutting it behind him. âDad,â he said with some amount of feeling, but then it was closed.
Silence again. Scout looked at Sniper. Sniper looked at Scout. Scout chugged what was left of Spyâs drink and set it to one side, then took another hard gulp of his own, glaring down and off to one side.
âWhyâd you run?â Sniper asked simply, the words coming easily now that heâd had an hour to mull them over.
Scout took another gulp of his glass. Set his jaw. Paused. âThatâs what I do,â he finally said, voice sharp, like it shouldâve been obvious, like it was a dumb question. âI run. I leave. I get the fuck outta places before they mess me up. Or... as soon as I figure out theyâre gonna mess me up.â
âYou think Iâll do that?â Sniper asked quietly.
âFuck, I dunno, probably,â Scout spat, glaring at the floor.
âWhy?â
âWellâI mean, you didnât say it back,â Scout said, shifting uncomfortably in his seat. He took another gulp from his glass. âAnd itâs... I dunno, maybe thatâs not fair. Iâm not gonna make you say it if you arenât ready.â
âSeems like you arenât, neither,â Sniper pointed out.
Scout sighed again, more at himself than anything else. âCan we pretend this never happened?â he asked, and he seemed so small in that moment, curled up in that armchair with that little glass, eyes red and hair messy.
âI donât know,â Sniper admitted, inhaled, exhaled. âBut we can try.â
Scout paused, looked at his glass with maybe slightly more interest than was warranted. âI wonât say it again,â he tried. âI... I dunno. I dunno what I was thinkinâ.â
A pause. âI wanted... to ask if you meant it,â Sniper said slowly, and saw Scoutâs jaw tighten. âBut that wouldnât very well be âpretending it never happenedâ, would it?â
âNah, it wouldnât,â Scout agreed, and chugged the last of his drink. He turned the glass around in his hand. âUh.â
â...Are we awright, then? Squared away?â Sniper asked.
âYeah. Yeah, totally. For sure,â Scout agreed, nodding absently.
âAces.â Sniper moved to leave, swerving just slightly out of his way to pass by Scout, leaning and pressing a kiss to his temple briefly. âSee you.â
âYeah. Yeah, see you.â
He paused a short way down the hallway, shifted on his feet. âSpy?â he asked the air.
âOui?â a patch of nothing just to one side asked in reply.
âThanks,â he said, and kept walking, and would never know how hard Spy rolled his eyes at the both of them and their young love theatrics.
