Your surroundings were hotter than usual, your body was hotter than usual. You opened your eyes staring at the deep red ceiling with intricate patterns adorning it. You tilted your head in confusion, where were you? Who were you? You sat up glancing down your body, what were you wearing? A beautiful dress.
“So you’ve awoken” you jolted at the sound of a voice something behind you shuffling. You frowned glancing behind you seeing two red bay like wings.
“They’re wings little mouse” the devil in front of you said, devil? How did you know things and not know who you were?
“Who are you? Where am I? Who am I?” The questions tumbled out and the devil rolled his eyes.
“So my father just gave you knowledge of everything else, but a name?” He scoffed, father?
“Oh delightful” you frowned seeing another devil behind him, one wearing a lot less making you gulp. He held a smirk looking extremely similar to the well dressed devil.
“A new play thing” the almost naked one said.
“No” the nicely dressed one said sternly.
“No fun” the almost naked one sauntered over and you backed up.
“Back off” you snapped wings flurrying in response.
“Oh, feisty I do so love the feisty ones” he chuckled before the devil behind him snapped his fingers and the other devil was gone. You stuttered seeing some smoke left in his place.
“Raphael” he said bowing slightly.
“Uh” you gulped trying to flicker through your mind for a name before you said it.
“Hm, come up with that just now?” He chuckled and you glared.
“I had no other choice!” You snapped as he repeated your new name.
“Good” he said and you felt a tingle go up your spine.
“Now, why are you here little mouse?” He asked, did he just ignore the fact that you now had a name?
“How am I supposed to know?!” You yelled and he raised an eyebrow.
“Loud aren’t you” he sighed.
“I have every right to be” you said huffing as you finally crawled off the bed wincing when you squished your tail? You frowned glancing behind you seeing a tail moving.
“That’s a tail dear” he commented.
“Yeah no shit dumbass!” You said.
“I don’t appreciate your tone little mouse” his tone lowered and you looked back to him, his eyes stern. You gulped slightly muttering an apology.
“Good, at least you’ll be easy to train” he said and your mouth hung open.
“Train? Excuse me I am not a pet” you put your hands on your hip and huffed and he chuckled darkly.
“Oh but you are, the sooner you accept that, the easier this will be” he said and you froze, what is this?
“What exactly is this?” You asked hesitantly and he smirked.
“Hell” he said.
The devil, Raphael had not been lying when he said this was hell, you were literally a slave, doing his dirty work, not like he had real slaves around the house to do all of it, no he wanted to make your life a personal hell. You didn’t even get a chance to find out about yourself who you were, you sometimes go glanced in the mirror, an odd face staring back at you, horns on your head, fangs in your mouth and black filled eyes with colour in the middle. Your wings and tail were difficult, you had trouble controlling them, you assumed it was like your other limbs that seemed to be working just fine, but no, you knocked things over very often and Raphael would sigh or roll his eyes making you clean whatever you knocked over up. You had your own room thankfully, a big bed, a fire place, not that hell really needed more fire. You often spent nights reading whatever books you stole from his library or journaling so you might make sense of who you were and how you knew everything, but yourself. You read about humans, elves, gnomes, teiflings, Dragonborn’s whatever races were in the mortal plain, it fascinated you, you wished to go there to explore learn about their ways and customs. Though if you even hinted it to Raphael he’d snap harder than a belt and send you to your room like a child. You were an adult, physically, you had the body of a woman, you’d stare at yourself sometimes, unsure of what it all meant. You’d touch yourself, run your hands down your hips, your arms and legs, over your chest, only over your chest it felt different, especially over your nipples. It was like a light tingly shock went through you and your lower stomach would clench. You’d explore lower running your finger through your folds and how that same tingly feeling ran up your spine and made you feel good. You focused on one point of your body, rubbing slowly at first with light pressure before building and building till your body shook and euphoria filled your body. You chased that feeling often, enjoying how it made your body shake and jolt, problem was, you only knew it felt good, didn’t know what it meant.
You sat idly in Raphael’s office fiddling with your wings, you found they were also sensitive, making your thighs clench together.
“As much as I enjoy watching you pleasuring yourself we have business” Raphael said and you looked to him as he stood.
“Pleasuring?” You asked and he gave you a questioning look.
“What’s that?” You added and he chuckled lightly.
“So you didn’t come fully aware of your body” he said and you frowned as he walked to you and stood in front of you.
“I can hear you at night, your little gasps and moans, exploring your body” his claw gently traced down your cheek and hooked under your chin, you felt your body shudder and the facial or clench of excitement in your stomach.
“Feels good doesn’t it?” He leant down face inches from yours as you forgot how to breathe. You simply nodded and he smirked, his fangs showing.
“Perhaps when you ‘sneak’ into my library you should look over some romance novels” his claw left your chin and he walked to the door leaving you breathless. Wait he knew about your library stealing?!
You quickly followed him to the soul pillar room as a rune began to glow on the ground.
“I promise I put the books back!” You said as he chuckled.
“Little mouse, I know all about your sneaking around, I know everything that happens in this house, I let you do it” he grinned as he began to mutter some infernal words. You groaned quietly and cursed yourself tail swishing relentlessly behind you.
“Come here” he ordered and you did.
“What’s going on?” You asked as he suddenly waved a spell on you. You froze looking down at your body, no tail, no wings, you felt your head, no horns.
“What did you do?!” You yelled and he winced glaring at you as he changed his form also.
“Making us human” he rolled his eyes as he dragged you into the circle. You almost screamed and closed your eyes tightly as magic pulsed around you and stopped.
“You can open your eyes” Raphael tsked and you let go of your breath and opened your eyes. You frowned at the rather bright interior of whatever house this was.
“Where are we?” You asked curiously as you looked around.
“The devils fee” he said and you raised an eyebrow laughing slightly.
“You’re always childish, Baldurs gate, Faerun” wait, did he say Baldurs gate? You were in the material plain?
“Where in the material plain?” You squealed and he growled making you stop instantly as someone opened the door.
“Raphael what a surprise” a halfling woman said and you stared at her in awe.
“And you brought company, why is she staring like that?” The woman frowned. Raphael clicked his fingers in front of your face and you jolted thinking he cast a spell, but he didn’t.
“Let’s just say she’s been alive for two months” Raphael rolled his eyes and the woman frowned again.
“Alright, come on down” she said walking out the door, you and Raphael following. Your mouth hung open the whole way down the stairs as you began to inspect every skull and trinket she had in her shop before you spotted outside. You stared in awe looking at the clear blue sky and yellow, extremely bright! Sun. You winced and looked away as you saw some people walking by, you stared and walked after them grinning from ear to ear. They walked off quickly, but you got distracted by the walls, the crates, the grass and puddles. You found yourself caught up in a crowd hearing chatter upon chatter, nothing like the house of hopes. You saw a little boy holding up some paper and walked over.
“2 gold ma’am, lasted stories!” He said and you frowned, you didn’t have any gold. You could just take it from him, that wasn’t among human custom though, you think. You smiled and left as you wandered the streets before an angry Raphael appeared in front of you.
“Did I say you could run off?” He said eyes angry.
“You can’t expect me to not run off” you said hands crossing over your chest as he gritted his teeth.
“If you don’t behave I will send you back home” he said and you tensed.
“Fine, but you-“ he raised an eyebrow and you shut up before following him quietly. You wandered the streets your grin coming back as you glanced in buildings the best you could and looked at all the people. You saw some overly large steel beings also, nothing with a soul, just huge things with swords following around armoured men and women, fascinating.
You crossed a bridge heading to another part of the city, you chuckled softly peering over the edge wondering if you could just fly off it only to be pulled back by an angry Raphael.
“Focus” he said and you pouted, but continued to follow him. You finally entered a building, sharess caress, you smiled as you saw people everywhere.
“Welcome back” the older woman smirked behind the counter.
“Oh and you’ve brought company” she winked at you and you smiled.
“Don’t get any ideas” Raphael growled in warning making you frown. The woman laughed and you tensed slightly, but Raphael did nothing.
“Of course, off you go” she shooed you away and you followed Raphael through the building and up the stairs. You frowned walking past doors hearing moans coming from inside.
“No” Raphael said as your hand reached for the door. You groaned and followed him to where he had stopped.
“The devils den?” You questioned seeing the sign.
“Get in” he said and you put your hands up and went inside. You stopped slightly seeing the lovely room. A big bath to your left, fancy rosewood furniture and a large bed at the end on a round platform with petals on the floor.
“Why’re we here?” You asked curiously as you looked through the room.
“We are going to make some deals” he said and you froze.
“Devil deals?” You said.
“Yes” he said apparently unbothered.
“I am not-“ you struggled, you were a devil, you were not a dealing devil.
“A dealing devil!” You said and he raised an eyebrow at you.
“Thats your job! Isn't it?” You gulped finding yourself slightly unstable without your wings or tail.
“This form feels funny” you said glancing behind you, seeing no tail or wings.
“You can’t wander around the city as a devil little mouse, a cat will get you” Raphael said. You frowned slightly hearing a cry next door, you glanced to Raphael who only smirked.
“Should we help them?” You asked gesturing to next door and the devil laughed.
“They don’t need any help my dear” he laughed sitting down on a plush red chair.
“Come” he patted his thigh and you raised an eyebrow in question. The devil gave you a hard stare and you walked over till you were standing in front of him.
“Sit” he gestured to his lap and you hesitated.
“I can grab another chair” you pointed to the wooden one by the desk.
“I said sit” he ordered and you gulped and climbed into his lap. You didn’t put any weight on him, you sat awkwardly on your knees as Raphael looked up at you, head resting on his hand.
“Little mouse how many times must I repeat myself” he said annoyed as his hand rested on your hip and forced you to sit on him. You froze in place arms huddled to your chest as your body ran hotter than normal.
“Good girl” he said and you stared at him wide eyed, your lower stomach clenching.
“Why am I sitting here?” You asked hesitantly as he smirked his hand still on your hip.
“I thought we were devil dealing” you mumbled unable to keep his stare.
“We are” he smirked.
“I’ve read about it, this isn’t how we deal, there’s contracts, manipulation, lying-“ he cut you off with a pointed look and you silenced yourself.
“This isn’t in the books” you mumbled.
“This is in books you haven’t read, little mouse” he said his hand slipping under your shirt. The contact made you gasp quietly, strange to have someone else touch you.
“What books?” You asked hesitantly and he chuckled devishly.

Sheesh, these characters have existed in one form or another for more than a literal decade now. I wrote this as an anniversary present for Mason last year, so it’s full mushy - but it seems fitting for these two to be the first ones I post here.
One day I’ll make the unfinished project they originated from, but it’s unlikely that it’ll be anytime soon. I just can't resist revisiting my dearly beloved gay immortal steampunk werewolves every so often.
Looking out at the empty planetarium is almost eerie, with how devoid of other signs of life it is in the otherwise populated museum housing it.
Though, it’s made less unsettling knowing it is only this empty because you've bought out every other ticket for the rest of the evening. Normally you would avoid such a flagrant, wasteful show of your wealth, but in this case, you only had your beloved's happiness in mind.
After a full day of city sightseeing, you wanted to ensure he would be relaxed enough to truly be able to focus on this experience - to really drink it in. Something that simply wouldn’t have been possible for someone of his disposition in a theatre packed full of people.
…And, perhaps a bit selfishly, you wanted to have the privacy to watch his reaction to something this precious, completely unimpeded by the presence of random strangers.
"Oh, what a grand room this is…" August wanders down the aisle between rows of seats ahead of you, looking around at the open space in the middle when he arrives there. “Some sort of theatre?”
True to his inquisitive nature, he’s been trying to piece together what you’ve had planned since you mentioned you had a specific activity scheduled this evening, whereas the itinerary has been loose for the rest of the day.
"Very spacious in the middle. If it weren’t for the seats, it almost resembles a ballroom…" His voice trails off with a hint of suspicion as he glances back at you.
“Do not fret," You chuckle. "I would not dream of asking you to ballroom dance again."
"I would hope not, not after last time." He turns to face you and his eyes glint mischievously before his expression softens. "Though, I don't think I would decline, when it's just the two of us to ourselves like this…"
Reassured he won't have to stumble through stiff and jerky ballroom dancing, August defaults to what he does best.
"So, not a ballroom, not an average theatre as it lacks a stage… I would think it must be some sort of playhouse, but there is no stage."
"No, neither of those. Though it is technically a sort of theatre."
“Hmm… And for what function would the floor be made of glass, exactly?” He strokes his chin in thought, the way he often does when he’s deep in analysis, his hooves making light clicks against the surface as he wanders. “It seems a strange choice for purely aesthetic reasons…”
“You will see very shortly.” You say, stealing a glance from the pocketwatch in your breast pocket.
Right on time.
As if checking urged the minute hand to finally lurch forward, the overhead lights click off in unison.
Spooked at the sudden darkness, August reaches for your hand, slightly hesitantly in his lack of vision, whispering your name softly for reassurance.
"Everything is okay. The darkness is part of the experience." You give his hand a squeeze.
"O-oho- You haven't brought me here for anything untoward, have you?"
"Hmh. No, though now that you have put the thought in my head, it sounds like an excellent plan for a later date."
Before he can make the playful response you are anticipating, the ethereal, electronic music starts filling the room, signaling the start of the presentation.
Typically during shows like this, there is an announcer reading off a script of helpful information about the cosmos. You had suggested they take an extended break when you unofficially reserved the planetarium for the time slot.
You're sure they're skilled in their own right, but August could surely run circles around them, just based on the limitless time he now has to devote to his precious interests. Moreover, you knew that the majority of August's enjoyment of this would be bubbling over with information to share with you.
The glass wall wakes up from its dormant, translucent state, now shifting between deep,velvety dark blues and cold violets. Astronomical bodies of various sizes dot the space- Stars, planets, comets - a reflection of all of Hearth's cosmos moving in a slow arc around you, spinning gently on an axis as it does around the actual planet, impossibly far above you.
“Oh…!”
The reflected light of a shimmering asterism passes over his face as he looks up in awe, making his golden eyes almost sparkle like stars themselves in the night against the indigo-hued shadow of the theatre.
“Beautiful, isn’t it? It is called a planetarium."
"Planetarium, planetarium…" August repeats, committing the word to memory. "I- I've never seen a place quite like this before... It is almost beyond comprehension, just how glorious it is. It's like an orrery, but an illusion across the entire room?"
"An interesting comparison. I suppose it is simply a large, intangible orrery - at least in principle."
"But however does it work? It must be magical in nature, surely!"
"Thread-based illusion, cast upon a Ley grid within the glass."
"How marvelous!" August gushes. "I never would've thought to apply Thread to Ley in such a manner… But now I have quite a few experiments to try when we get home, hah-"
He looks down for a moment to cradle his chin in thought, then recoils.
"Ah-!" August yelps in astonishment, seeing that the projection extends over the glass surface of the floor as well, producing a weightless effect. "That's why the floor is made of glass!"
His hand clutches your arm for stability. Even with your firm constitution, the illusion is tricking your body into feeling the sensation of floating weightless, out in space - or at least, what it might feel like, so you’re sure it’s having a similar effect on him. You place a supportive hand on the small of his back, in case the sudden impression of free floating makes him unbalanced.
Soon, your protective hold has let August relax, and he’s become completely enthralled
“There’s the Elven Diadems, northern and southern; and there’s Rowena seated on her throne, then the Chained Prophetess is over there…”
His eyes sweep the artificial sky, looking for something specific.
“Ah, there they are. The Warg and the Hunter’s Hound.”
“One of your personal favorites, if I recall.” Your hand squeezes the dip of his side affectionately.
“Yes. They were my favorites before as well, but now they seem to have a lot more of a meaning, coincidentally…” He chuckles, leaning into your touch. “Oh, look at that!-”
You continue listening to him gush about the various heavenly bodies for quite a while, completely smitten by his passion for the subject, as you always are.
Eventually, his voice grows hushed, his commentary spacing out until eventually you’re watching in silence. After a while just taking in the splendid view together, you realize that the end of your allotted time is drawing near.
“It will be time to depart, soon.”
He blinks, seemingly startled out of his awe-struck trance by the deep timbre of your voice. He’s had the tendency to falter at loud, booming voices for as long as you’ve known him, and while you’ve made a lot of effort to soften your voice over time, the ingrained projection needed for your orders to be heard over the tumult of battle is hard to fully tamp down, even after all this time not needing to use it.
“Have you enjoyed it?”
“I… I have. Everything that you’ve shown me today has been so new and bright and… simply stunning… I’ve had a wonderful time.”
He is being genuine in his appreciation, but even the small mask of a smile can't hide the streak of melancholy in him - not from you.
"What is vexing you?"
“It’s just… It’s all a bit…”
His voice wavers slightly before his thought fades into nothing.You patiently wait for him to continue, but when he struggles to find his words, you offer the next word for him.
“Overwhelming?”
He nods in affirmation, looking more guilty than anything else as a set of tears streak down his cheeks, brows furrowed and soft lips pouting.
“Take a deep breath, and then another.” You direct, and he complies. You use a calloused hand to wipe away his tears, then graze over the golden smattering of freckles on his cheek, then finally to gently tuck a strand of loose golden hair behind one of his gracefully pointed ears. “Good. Now, tell me what is haunting that lovely mind of yours.”
“I could have gone my whole life without ever encountering something of this nature if even the slightest thing had been different. How many other precious things are out there that I’m completely unaware of? That I’ll never discover- That I don’t even know exist to look for? Let alone things that are truly unknowable to us in the first place… Must I always be in the dark about something or another? It… It’s a terrible, hungry thought.”
You wrap your arms protectively around him and draw a hand across his back in soothing strokes.
Living one’s entire life on Rowena Isle was as an insulating experience for him as it was for you, after all. The culture shock when you started to learn what the rest of the world beyond the sea had to offer was a truly harrowing experience, so of course it would be for him, as well…
“My apologies, beloved. I did not consider how taxing all of these new experiences at once would be for your psyche. I should not have rushed the process.”
“N-No, you needn’t apologize! You've done nothing but try to share something very special with me, and I am truly thankful.” August sputters, his hands finding the fabric of your shirt and clutching close to you for comfort. His bright eyes turn up to gaze at you once again, still glassy with emotion but at least no longer spilling with tears. “Everything you've shown me on this trip has been so amazing! I don't regret it at all, even if I was uncomfortable at times. I’m simply… not expressing myself well, is all…”
“Still, perhaps it would have been more wise to introduce them to you at a slower pace. It was never meant to bring you to tears; at least no ones of sorrow.”
“It is… not a bad sorrow.”
You allow him the time to gather his thoughts, holding him secure in your arms.
“It’s true that it’s all new and… and the ramifications are so frightening to me, and yet… There is something about that which is so absolutely marvelous.”
The familiar spark of curiosity is clear in his voice once more.
“Oh, is it?” You realize you haven't given your lover enough credit.
He may be of a gentle and timid disposition, but he is by no means a fragile soul, and he's proven that to you time and again. To be that stunned by something so foreign and immediately bounce back with renewed interest and vigor - that is the August that you know.
“Yes. For the longest time I thought the stars were completely out of reach to someone like me, and yet- in this room someone has managed to capture their very essence and hang them on the walls.” He lets out a shuddering sigh that morphs into a bewildered laugh. “I am a small speck in this dark endless sky, but it means there will never be a shortage of new, bright things to come to know- to grow to love.”
"You undervalue yourself. You are worth every star in the sky to me."
“Whether I am worthy or not is… debatable. More importantly, though I am small, I am not alone.” He says, voice barely louder than a breath, and his slender, soft fingers graze up the sides of your face, affection clear in his touch. "You are here with me."
“That I am. There is no place I would rather be.”
“It’s such a shame it was a short visit.” August sighs again, this one much lighter, as he hugs you tightly. “I think I could stay here in the dark with you for days on end.”
You can’t help but feel validated that your idea to bring him here was so successful in the end.
“I will build you one at home, if you would so like.” You whisper into his ear.
He looks up at you and his eyes grow wide - they might as well be twinkling in reverence.
You feel his body press flush against your solid trunk, guiding your head downward with his gentle hands at the back of your neck, to press loving kisses to your lips.
“I will take this as a glowing endorsement.” You chuckle low between each peck.
Clearly swept up in the emotion, it doesn’t take long for the kisses to deepen, his fingernails lightly digging into your neck. He groans a soft, sweet noise of desire against your mouth.
It takes all of your self control to not sweep him off his feet and start groping him right here. He seems to be thinking much the same, the way he’s rubbing his torso against yours.
He says your name, the quirk of a naughty smile on his face.
“You know I only have one thing to offer you in return.” Signs of lust creep into his excited expression, his desperate grip, his breathless voice; but most of all, the thick, pheromonal scent hitting your nose. “Will you have it?
“I would take you right here, if I were a more reckless man.” You growl deeply, feeling the words rumble out from your chest. “But the evening grows short, my love; The moon is almost seated in her throne. We’ll need to get back to the hotel first, lest some poor museum worker get the shock of their life.”
“Hhm-” August huffs an affirmative laugh against your lips.
Luckily, you had the foresight to book a hotel only a brisk walk away. The nagging pull of the nearly risen full moon is still able to be squashed down - you've been doing this a very long time, after all. So, despite your skin itching and muscles straining, you're at least able to keep yourself restrained - for now.
You're barely inside the privacy of your hotel room until your mouth has found his, and your hands have found his body, creeping up under his buttoned shirt to feel the soft skin of his sides. Your fingers clench against his flesh, threatening to elongate into savage claws.
Neither of you bothers with flipping the light switch; not only is it not needed given the fact that you both have the ability to see in darkness, but because the room you booked has a glass ceiling designed for stargazing, letting more than enough late dusky light into the room to see what you’re doing. The convenient view of the night sky was a major contributing factor in your decision, and it provides more than enough lighting for this.
"Mmn." August hums in appreciation of the pressure in your grip and places both of his palms on your chest, feeling your hard muscle through the knit of the sweater you wear.
Those dexterous hands of his move to the hem and pull it up, a lilt of amusement in his voice against your lips as he continues.
"Firstly- I enjoy the look of this sweater on you far too much to see it torn to shreds."
You pull the garment up over your head, tossing it to the nearby wardrobe. August shifts his hands’ attention to unfastening the shell buttons on the crisp white shirt underneath.
As soon as he's gotten your shirt open, he lets out a pleased sigh, lovingly appreciating the carved lines of your chest and torso with his hands. He traces his fingers along scars old and relatively new, causing your nerves to prickle from the dulled, numb sensation of the various pinkened streaks on your flesh. The sensation clashes loudly with how eager your skin is to change, itching to sprout fur.
"And we can't forget this." August's hands raise to the sides of your face, gently hooking under the strap of your eyepatch and smoothly raising it off your face. He tosses it onto the wardrobe with your sweater. Fingers gently touch the scars around your ruined eye as well, softly kissing your cheekbone, before trailing down your jawline to your mouth, slowly speaking how much he adores you through tender action.
His tongue sweeps yours and you feel his attention shift to unbuttoning your trousers. Even the graze of indirect pressure on your groin is almost unbearable, every nerve ending in the area lit up and overly sensitive. Before he can fully unfasten the fly, you interrupt him.
"Undress." You break the kiss and command with a growl, through quickly sharpening teeth. You release your hold on him to allow him to do so. "I do not trust they will stay whole if the task is left to me."
August says nothing in response but moves out of your grasp, towards the bed, turning to face you when he gets there. He smiles coyly, unbuttoning his own shirt now, much more leisurely than he had yours. You watch with intense interest as more of his bronze skin is gradually revealed, barely keeping yourself together. The cold light from above glints off the metal ring of the collar on his neck.
He lets the dress shirt slip from his shoulders and fall to the floor, then continues working at the many buttons of his well-tailored, high-waisted trousers.
You're barely hanging on as you watch - between the pull of the imminently rising moon and the strong sense of desire for your partner pooling in your core.
After a torturously extended period undoing them, they crumple in a pool at August's hooves, along with what's left of your composure when you take in the sight of him, completely bare save for the collar around his neck and the strappy black underwear he's wearing. He looks at you expectantly and beckons you with a flick of his finger, a bulge of arousal clear through the minimal fabric left covering him.
You stalk forward, not yet creeping on all fours, but certainly more predatory in stance than is the norm for your normally immaculate posture. You seize him by the hips and forcibly move him backwards onto the bed. You stand at the foot of it, looming over him.
August lets out a huff of air from the impact, but it's quickly replaced by small noises of pleasure as you lean over to kiss and drag your teeth down his chest, down to his soft stomach and along his cut line. You grip the back of his legs possessively and press his flesh harder against your mouth - hard enough to leave marks, but not nearly hard enough to break his skin.
Your teeth snag on one of the straps at his leg, and you rend it in two, the stretchy fabric retracting with a snap against the soft fat of his thigh, causing August to yelp. The noise incites you further, and you completely obliterate the remainder of the garment without a second thought, fiercely ripping it from his body, the sound of tearing fabric making your skin tingle and pupils constrict. He’s rendered nude, nothing left providing him any cover save for the shapely, warm gold ombre of fuzz framing his cock and thighs.
“C-Careful.” August breathes, more of a feeble request than a command as he looks warily down his torso at you, the threat of your pointed teeth dangerously close to his delicate, now very exposed dick. Given its engorged state and the needy, familiar expression of excitement on his face, you take the statement as a friendly reminder more than one of true concern.
You draw yourself up, pulling one of August’s legs up with you with ease, hooking his calf over your well-built shoulder. He’s held aloft, his upper back and forearms the only points of contact with the bed. His loose golden hair tumbles downward around his face, pulled by gravity.
With his leg secured in your thick palm and the weight of his body stable, you rummage through the pocket of your trousers until your hand finds a familiar glass vial.
One of the unexpected benefits of having so many magically-inflicted scars is the salve you use on them to reduce the lingering pain of mana burn also doubles as an excellent personal lubricant - it differs slightly from the silky, floral scented formula you typically use in the bedroom that August is so fond of, but it’s far from the first time you’ve used this as a replacement in a pinch, and it’s not drawn any complaints so far.
After popping the top off the vial, you smear the oily substance onto the cold metal of your prosthetic hand. You don’t use it for this every time, but it keeps things interesting when you do; moreover, with your state as it is, you feel it’s the safer option to avoid any unfortunate slips of your restraint that would result in a sharp claw in such a critically vulnerable area.
August helpfully opens his unsecured leg wider, watching you prep your hand in obvious want. Once you’ve sufficiently slickened your fingers, you recork the vial and toss it aside.
You take an indulgent moment to tease your finger at the base of his spaded tail, relishing in the small noises of mixed pleasure and ticklishness he makes, and the way his body squirms at the sensation. Then, two smooth, slick metal fingertips easily sink into his entrance, drawing a gasp from him. You can feel the tremor run down his body through his legs from the sudden shock of the unwarmed metal.
“Yes-” He sighs in appreciation and presses back against your encroaching touch as best he can despite his awkward positioning, immediately seeking more.
You draw your fingers out and press them back in, getting deeper with each repetition. Working him open, you spread them apart and swivel them, set on touching every little space of his inner walls.
It only takes a bit of stroking and stretching his insides for him to be relaxed and whining in need, likely due to the sheer amount of training you've done with him over time.
He groans pitifully, wriggling his hips to try and get your now thoroughly warmed fingers even deeper, to no avail. Knowing him, if he had any ounce of leverage in this situation he’d be trying to climb on top to ride you by now.
Instead, he whimpers and resigns himself to his fate, wrapping the hand that’s not stabilizing himself on the bed around his cock and beginning to stroke himself.
"Oh, is that how it is? We have just barely gotten started." You huff, critical. "You are in for a very long night if you cum this early, August."
"Nnh-" He trembles at hearing his actual name from your lips and looks up at you with pleading, glassy eyes, his breathing already to the point of panting. Precum dribbles down onto his stomach. "It'll be- Mmngh- be a long night either way…"
“Just look at you. Greedy.” You chide in a low growl and press a particularly hard prod against the fleshy bulb inside of him. “Absolutely lecherous, as is usual.”
“Mmhm-” After an open-mouthed, full body shudder, he smiles, complicit and smug, and bucks his hips forward into his hand. "I think- ahh- you quite enjoy it."
His adorable ears flick, turning more canine as his arousal heightens. It becomes difficult for him to resist shifting form in response to strong emotions, rather than him being bound to the pull of every full moon, as you are. Despite this, he's never been the best at practicing self-restraint…
“Indeed,” A smirk forms on your own face, as a lustful groan builds in your chest, watching the sight of him pleasuring himself while your fingers plunge inside of him with the same goal. “You must truly want a planetarium all to yourself.”
Your words are just barely intelligible at this point as your grasp of speech unwinds. It’s usually the last thing to go, and given the full claws on your hand now digging into the flesh of August’s leg and the restlessness coiled in your body ready to snap- the itching, burning rippling through your veins, up to the surface of your skin - your full change could happen at literally any moment, now.
“I do- I want everything you have to give!” He cries needily, his now pronounced fangs a flash white between his dampened lips. ”Give me everything!”
You make an affirmative noise somewhere between a grunt and a growl, in place of what would normally be a ‘Very well’ from you.
You pull out your fingers, making August whimper weakly in protest, and hastily push aside your already partially removed trousers and the soft fabric beneath, freeing the heavy girth that’s been straining against its confinement since you set foot back in private.
Once your hips align with your target, you push your cock inside of his prepared hole - he does deserve it, after all.
“Uungh!” August groans loudly in pleasure at your intrusion stretching him, letting his full voice out. He’s come a long way from the timid, excessively shy person that wouldn’t make so much as a peep the first time you had sex. “Nnngh-”
You cradle the arch of his spine, firmly keeping up the leverage taut as you begin to pump inside of him. As soon as you start a modest rhythm, his hand completely forgets its task - both of his palms move to the bed at his sides, balling fists in the sheets.
Painted nails lengthen into a long pair of glossy claws of his own. You can hear the sound of tearing fabric where they pierce the mattress.
It’s difficult to start slow. He’s so soft and welcoming, and warmer by the second. His ass pulls you in as much as you’re pushing into it. The pressure of his walls is sublime, squeezing tighter around you every time he clenches - a small pocket of personal hellfire.
Wisps of blue have cropped up in the darkness, casting ghostly, flickering cold light below.
“S-Spirits, that’s so good!” He moans, his brow knit in effort, and sweat starts to visibly bead on his forehead. His voice echoes slightly now, in the ethereal way it does when his demonic nature asserts itself. “More, more!”
Appeasing his request, you pick up the pace and force of your thrusts, increasing in intensity until the wet sound of your flesh slapping against his pervades the room.
Your senses are so heightened from being close to your change that you can feel every minute sensation in a concentrated manner. The way he feels, the sounds, the sight of him, his thick, pheromone laden smell, the consuming heat of his body- The rising level of your excitement is seemingly the last straw, pushing your restraint to finally snap.
You’re unable to resist the urge any longer, now being under the light of a risen full moon. Your body starts to transform in totality. The pain of the situation is mercifully lessened to nagging discomfort by just how many moons of this you’ve endured.
Silvery grey fur sprouts on the back of your hands first, then runs up the skin on your limbs before spreading out over your body, the itching finally assuaged. Your muscles swell and twist, your joints snapping from the pressure. Your spine extends into a full, bushy grey tail, and your ears stretch and raise, two furry, perked triangles. Your nose and mouth grows and splits into a fully lupine maw - long and full of razor sharp fangs, frothed slobber already dribbling from your pulled lips from being so worked up. Your bulk nearly doubles as you reach your fully monstrous werewolf size - everywhere - shredded off what was left of your clothes that hadn’t managed to be disrobed.
You can feel the inside of August’s body tighten around your thickened, elongated cock, the organ filling him further to make room for its mass. You’re stopped from plunging to the hilt by the quickly swelling bundle of flesh at the base of your phallus. It grinds wet against the tense ring of muscle at August’s entrance.
“Aaangh- B-Big-!” August throws his head back, all attempts at eloquence abandoned as he grunts and gasps, trying to adjust to the sudden change in girth inside of him. His forked tongue hangs out of his parted mouth, the shock of blue complimenting his tan skin beautifully. “Al-Always S-So big- Mnngh!”
A growl escapes your chest through your bared newly minted fangs, so aroused and driven on by primal lust that you’re unable to slow your pace even slightly. Your clawed mitts grip him tighter, and your robust, furry quads thrust your throbbing cock into him harder and faster, as deep as the tighter fit and the sudden spherical flare will allow.
Your mechanical claw moves from the small of his back to the crook of his knee on his free leg and pushes upwards, spreading his legs open as far as possible, trying to facilitate cramming your knot inside him.
After a few more ragged pumps into him, you can feel some progress. August’s hole stretches in small increments, taking more of the swollen bump bit by bit. Deep growls escape your throat with each savage thrust.
With a particularly strong jerk of your hips, the resistance finally yields. Your fat, over-swollen knot pushes past the fleshy ring with a pop, quickly sucked up into August’s body.
“O-Oh- Nnngh-”
You’ve barely been moving a few moments before your lover tenses below you and his hole contracts around you as hard as it can, preventing you from pulling out of him.
"Aa-anngh-!" August's body is wracked by tremors below you, his voice broken by intensity as he cries out, and his claws puncturing the bedding. He hits his peak fast, cum streaking out of the tip of his swollen head.
Because of the steep angle you're holding him at, his spunk lands on his own face and hair, some even getting into his open mouth where his tongue lulls out. Given his dreamy, blissed out expression, and the frantic heaves of his chest, he doesn't seem to mind much at all.
He watches you with the same glazed, reverent expression, keeping himself clenched and you tied to him as you continue. You thrust ferociously with a primal lust, despite the lack of room to draw out.
The tight squeeze feels divine - every slope of August’s inner walls bearing down and rubbing you in a sweet embrace. You chase down the building feeling of pressure in your lower spine, still growling low. Your movements become harried and wild, and finally, your balls tense up. The growls in your chest turn into a full blown snarl as you spout a fountain’s worth of cum inside of him, continuing the movement of your hips as you empty your load.
After the spasms subside, you use the increased amount of lubricant to draw yourself out of him, an overflow of your own seed filtering out in absence of your cock.
“Aaah-” August groans breathlessly, wincing at the lack of fullness as he holds his undoubtedly sore abdomen. “U-Uh?”
He lets out a noise of surprise as you use your grip on his knee to flip him over, shoving him farther up the bed, so that he’s chest down, on his knees- his round, perfect ass propped in the air.
“N-Not finished, huh?” He pants breathily, lust rising in his voice again. “Go ahead, use me as you see fit- Nngh-!”
He’s cut off as you grab his hips and sink your still rock hard cock into him to the hilt once more, the force knocking the air out of him.
You continue to wildly rut into him, filling him with more rounds of cum, then repeat several times over. You carry on long after he passes out and the gathered wisps have extinguished themselves, using his limp body for relief far into the wee hours of the morning. Eventually you fully exhaust yourself, and pull out of him one last time before collapsing to sleep beside him.
Some hours later, you wake to golden morning light beginning to filter in from the glass ceiling, a man once more in the warm rays of the sun.
You sit up and roll one of your shoulders tentatively, your weary bones creaking with your movements. In your stirring, you notice your lover is also awake, watching you groggily from his position laying on his back next to you.
“How do you fare this morning?” Your brow knits in slight concern, always worried that despite him assuring you otherwise, that one day you will physically hurt him beyond repair. “Sore, I assume.”
“A little sore, yes. And quite sticky…” He laughs, noticing your look of concern and countering it with a loving smile of his own, reaching out to grab your hand. He places a light kiss onto your hardened knuckles. “Moreso hungry. Absolutely ravenous.”
“We shall have to fix that, then. I have a few places in mind for breakfast, but it seems whichever is the closest one is in order.” You shift your weight to rise out of the bed, when you feel his palm catch your forearm.
“Wait,” August says softly, pulling you back before you can leave the bed. “Lay with me a bit longer, if you would.”
“... Of course, my beloved.” You settle back against the headboard, shifting to hold him in your arms, his warm skin soft against yours. You could never fail to oblige him. “We can have something delivered, if you prefer.”
After sorting out the food order, a few minutes of tired quiet pass. August sighs a contented, thoughtful sigh, his body still limp and relaxed as he draws a hand slowly across the soft hair on your chest.
“Mmm, now, that is the sound you make when having a particularly poignant thought.“ A husky, affectionate chuckle rumbles in your chest. “Just what topic has you pondering this deeply so early, my dear?”
“Oh, nothing too philosophical, truly. Mulling over all the things I experienced on this trip.” He laughs lightly in response. “Everything is so new, but most of the things weren’t so different from those at home; just some minor permutation on the same idea. Even that beautiful glass room that holds the night sky - the planetarium - is still the same night sky I’ve seen while stargazing so many times before, just seen through a different lens.”
“That is true. Living long enough reveals that very few things are completely original. Especially when home is particularly stuck in its old ways… so much of the outside world has taken and improved upon what is there.”
“Yes. But how beautiful it is, that there is still a vast unknown that remains to be found in things that are so familiar, just by turning them in the light.”
“You know,” You say and lay soft, venerative kisses on his face and neck, drawing a sweetly affectionate, drawn out hum from him. “Perhaps you should take up poetry - I think you are simply a natural.”

His hand gently ran across your back, his hand warm and leaving goosebumps as he went before a knock came. You jolted while he chuckled darkly.
“Our first customer” he said saying a ‘come in’ while you went to scramble off his lap. He was quicker than you and kept his arm around your waist smirking as the man came in. An elf by his pointed ears, you felt an odd sensation seeing his soul it was darkened by something he had done.
“Apologies, is this a bad time?” He asked nervously and Raphael shook his head while you studied the elf.
“What is you see little mouse?” He asked you as you frowned.
“His soul” you said the man gasping slightly.
“Darkened isn’t it?” Raphael said and you nodded.
“Why have you come oh mortal?” Raphael asked as you continued to study.
“I’ve done something I need clearing” he said as you shifted in Raphael’s lap, back to his chest as you sat on his thigh. His arm was still securely around your waist as you prodded into the elfs mind without him knowing.
“What has he done?” Raphael asked you as you saw him killing a woman, his wife.
“Killed his wife” you said a glare on your face.
“Why did you kill her? She had no reason to die” you fought.
“She slept with another man!” The elf explained.
“No she didn’t” you stated and he froze.
“You accused her because you were to insecure” you snapped anger boiling inside you.
“Seems you’ve upset my mouse” Raphael commented.
“Kill him” his voice echoed in your mind.
“We won’t help you” you said sensing Raphael’s surprise.
“Live with what you’ve done” you said scaring the man out the room.
“Well done” Raphael chuckled and you felt pride boil from the compliment.
“You could’ve killed him easily” he stated.
“Would’ve been easy” you muttered leaning back into him arms crossing over your chest.
“You deserve a reward little mouse” he chuckled and you felt your body grow hot.
“It wasn’t anything” you said trying to hide the way your cheeks burned.
“I don’t like mortals” you grumbled and he laughed.
“Based off of one elf?” He chuckled and you pouted feeling his hand spread across your stomach.
“Trust me, mortals can be quite entertaining” he whispered by your ear making you shudder briefly.
You watched as he made a few deals, he was true about his word, mortals were entertaining, selling their souls for something so stupid. You watched and learned, having left his lap long ago as you wandered the room. It smelt of roses and sulphur, petals over the floor and sleek rosewood furniture around the room with a large bed in the middle. You wanted to jump on the bed and sag into it, you wondered if it would be as comfortable as your one at home. The outside world had darkened and one last customer came in, he stank of wine, his soul tainted like the rest.
“Greetings, should you really be here? I like my clients sober” Raphael sneered as the drunkard grinned looking directly at you.
“I thought it just rumours” he laughed as you felt yourself shrink a bit at his intense stare.
“I want to make a deal” he turned to Raphael, but kept his eyes on you.
“I want her” he giggled pointing to you and your rage flared, you wished you were in your devil form, send him running out the door.
“She is not for sale” Raphael’s voice was low and warning, but the drunkard pressed.
“Why she here with you? You never have girls up here!” He said as you moved more to Raphael’s side, going behind him almost.
“Because she’s mine” The way his voice went deadly made shivers go up his spine as hellfire engulfed him and his devil form replaced him.
“Get out” he sneered and the drunkard ran in fear making you smirk slightly. You felt his hell fire heat, you swore you felt his rage also. You hesitated, but moved to stand in front him, his eyes instantly snapping to yours as you cupped his face. You never really got to touch him besides today when you sat upon his lap. The devil frowned at you as you gently stroked his cheek. You leant up and pressed your lips to his the devil growling in response, you did what felt right. His clawed hand grabbed your waist and tugged you closer, his hot lips pressing into yours harder as his nails dug into your flesh. Your body’s went flush together and your warmth radiated the room as you pulled apart.
“You’re playing a dangerous game” he said eyes still on you.
“Am I?” you asked tilting your head as he smirked.
