piano man
ever the leader that he is, piano man finds that he has many priorities to tend to, but his number one will always be you — his kisses are reverent and worshipful, always ensuring you that nothing else in the world is more sacred to him than your shared love
his days will typically start off very busy at an instant. his first kiss to you is in the morning when he gets out of bed, a soft press of his lips to yours with the quiet murmur of a promise to come back home soon, yet the temptation to stay remains strong as you tug him back onto the sheets with a whispering plea for just five more minutes (how can he say no to you?)
there is a fragile sanctity present in every kiss that follows. he’ll make sure that you never forget just how perfect you are in his eyes, allowing himself to soak in the atmosphere of the moment as he takes his time with you, leading and guiding your lips to mold with his own
while his kisses may feel routinely at first, there’s a silent solace in knowing that he’s made you a part of his every single day. not a sun will pass over your heads where you aren’t in it, and god forbid a day comes when he’ll end it without you being the last thing he sees at night
no words are ever capable of expressing just how much you mean to him. you’re the real dollar among supernotes, something so special and irreplaceable
lippmann
for an actor, you often have difficulties telling whether or not his words and gestures mean anything towards others, but he promises that everything he says and does to and for you are always genuine — his kisses are passionate and sincere with nothing to hide
when he kisses you, it’s raw and unguarded behind any façade. there’s a kind of honesty in the loving press of his lips to yours that no one else will ever be blessed enough to witness, because such a thing is meant for you and you alone
though he doesn’t mind public displays of affection, his preferences always lean towards loving on you in private, be it in the comfort of your shared bedroom or in any empty corner of his film sets. both hands cup your cheeks and his brows furrow as he indulges himself in your lips, breathy sighs and the softest noises shared between you both as he lets himself linger in the taste of you
it’s never the same when he’s called to give kisses on sets — his best is reserved for you and you only, his beloved muse and inspiration for everything he does
and when you find yourself jealous of those receiving his kisses on set? goodness, he’s sure to make it up to you immediately after, pressing another kiss to your knuckles as both an apology and a promise to his only love
iceman
ironic to his name, the world around you melts away when iceman presses his lips to yours for a kiss — his kisses are tender and reassuring, and the unhurried nature of them always makes you feel like you’re home in his arms
ever the gentleman, he’ll always ask for your consent before pursuing your lips. he never wants to make you feel uncomfortable, usually holding your hand in the process or cupping your cheek to guide you
any affectionate action he takes towards you is warm, a stark contrast to his name. his kisses easily steady the racing beat of your heart, soothing any inner turmoil you may be carrying on your own
not once does he ever rush, often savoring the moment when it happens. his kisses speak of comfort with a lack of urgency, prioritizing the feel of the moment without thoughts of what could happen after
and when he feels like it, he’ll rest his forehead against yours with the softest sigh. no words are exchanged, but you can tell just how much he loves you so
albatross
albatross kisses you with the same enthusiasm as a high school boy would when he kisses his crush on the cheek for the first time — his kisses are playful and breathless, able to coax giggles from your lips between each peck and smooch
he sees you not just as his partner, but as his playmate. to him, you are someone who halves his sorrow when he is sad and doubles his joy when he is ecstatic. for that, he loves you so, and he promises to quarter your sorrows and quadruple your joys
his kisses will often come out of nowhere in an attempt to catch you off guard. you could be going about your day normally and you’d feel a pair of lips and accompanied by a loud “mwah!” right on the apple of your cheek (and you find yourself flustered every time)
he never forgets to give you a forehead kiss after putting your helmet on when you two go out for late night drives on his motorcycle — it’s his way of saying that yes, he’s a bit of an airhead, but he’ll always make sure to keep you safe no matter the situation
and when he presses his lips to yours, there’s always a laugh between bated breaths, and he can’t help but smile at how fortunate he is to share such a happy kind of love with you
doc
it is because of you that doc finds himself closer to the divine creator in his every waking moment, knowing that you, an earthly being, are the closest thing he has to touching heaven — his kisses are healing yet feverish, able to weaken your knees and make your head spin dizzily
he kisses you the same way he dresses the wounds of a patient — meticulous and attentive, taking note of every sigh and shiver that slips from between your lips
every kiss is a contradiction in itself. they are both soothing but desperate, soft but fiery with the kind of longing for more before being met with a relief that you two share. he never rushes, much the same way he approaches every surgical operation, and he’s precise enough with every movement that it makes you burn up
if he’s feeling playful enough, he’ll bite your lip teasingly, jagged teeth leaving little marks while you whine at the unexpected feeling (you can’t argue, however, not when you enjoy his antics so much)
after a long day of tending to other people, he lets himself be taken care of by you, his trust unwavering with a kiss to show that even when his life is in your hands, it’s you who he’ll always have faith in
a/n: i actually wrote this in the midst of having a panic attack during a practice session LMAO so take this as something of a word vomit of sorts (that i hope makes sense)! this is also the appetizer for my stormbringer event, so i hope you enjoyed reading this! :>
you have a wet dream about fucking your best friend. in line with your expectations, it ruins your friendship — though unexpectedly; only in the best way possible.
wc: 6.6k ⁕⃰ crossposted on ao3 ⁕⃰ vgen ⁕⃰
It's not unusual for you to have vivid dreams.
While you sometimes sleep like someone pulled your plug after your battery has been drained, just a void — a whole lot of nothingness between the time you put your head on your pillow at night to the time you start feeling around your nightstand to shut your alarm off in the morning, most nights, you dream of elaborate scenarios.
Sometimes, it's influenced by whatever show you've last watched, weaseling yourself into the story and navigating through the setting freely. Other times, it's simply you playing saviour in different contexts, no matter big or small, like handling a horde of zombies on your own, saving a distracted citizen from getting run over by a car attempting to speed past an obvious yellow light, being the only one who knows how to lock-pick in a pinch, the whole package.
There is the occasional embarrassing moment like becoming the laughingstock of the class one way or the other — wardrobe malfunction, bodily functions, whatever other issue that can have you cringing for days on end after, mouth curling into a snarl when you remember it.
Still, your dreams are mostly pleasant, and surprisingly consistent. Ignoring the occasional out of pocket elements, it's almost like most of your dreams follow a pre-written storyline.
It's fascinating how you remember it well, too, instead of your mind being wiped the moment the dream is ripped from your consciousness when you wake, like your mind stubbornly clings to whatever fiction it managed to cook up while you were resting, as if not to waste its hard work.
Even though you can mostly influence it, it's not like you can control what you dream about.
Albatross is fully naked above you, his dick lined up with your entrance, his tip brushing against your clit as he leans down to mouth at your neck.
Your arms wrap around his shoulders to pull him closer, and both of you flinch when his sunglasses dig into your skin as he tries nuzzling against your neck.
He pulls back in confusion, a puzzled expression painted black by the tint of the glasses sitting crooked on his face mirroring your own before he chuckles — his sunglasses are such a signature look on him that you and him both forgot to take them off even during sex, which became the butt of the joke more often than not — reaching up to gently toss them aside, and the frames clatter against the nightstand as he leans back down, this time to brush his lips against yours before his tongue juts out to flatten against your mouth playfully.
He doesn't have to do anything for your mouth to part willingly, but he is quick to take the invitation, tongue sliding into your mouth while his hands caress up your sides.
Then, he's thrusting into you, supporting himself on his elbows, pulling out almost fully before rolling his hips forward again and again. Your back arches off the mattress, your toes curl, your body tensing before the relief of an orgasm washes over you. There is some kind of music in the background, getting progressively louder, and you feel his lips on your temple—
It's your alarm.
It's not a violent startle like it's mostly depicted in movies — both in the case of a nightmare and a wet dream; and currently, you cannot discern between the two. Taking a deep breath, you feel around your nightstand to shut off your alarm, dragging a hand down your face, taking as much time as you can to force the contents of your unnecessarily vivid dream into the closet. Under the rug. Wherever it can be out of sight, out of mind.
Albatross is your best friend.
You get along great, you trust him, feel safe around him. He brings you unprecedented joy, and despite how different yet similar you are, you don't want to have to maneuver the potentially awkward stage of trying to find your footing and forcing your relationship back to platonic after one confessed to harbouring unreciprocated romantic feelings towards the other, even if you desire him more than you've desired anything in your life.
Being on the side doing the rejection was so much easier. Considering how maturely you previously handled such affairs, you can only hope fate will have some mercy on you if push comes to shove on account of the grace you've given your unwanted suitors.
Though it's not like you to take chances.
Maybe you're better off yearning to the grave.
It really doesn't help that the insufferable blond is everything you want in a man and more, now that you think about it. He is always the first one you would rant to when a male specimen wrongs you, and his facial expressions alone would validate his position as your ideal man, let alone his verbal support and how attuned he is to your emotions.
Like that one time when you were meeting up with a friend from high school at a café close enough to your home, but it was still about half an hour's walk. Both Albatross and Chuuya made sure to check up on you at least once after you sent a blurry elevator pic in the group chat, the ginger even nudging you to keep everyone updated when your friend went to the bathroom as if it was a date.
Which it was not, so you just rolled your eyes at them being overprotective over some old acquaintance like this.
Time passed by quickly as the two of you caught up, occasionally exchanging new gossip about people you knew from back then. By the time the conversation had lulled to a comfortable silence, the café staff were going from table to table to ask if there was anything else the customers would like before they closed up the kitchen, which you took as your cue to leave.
While walking down to wait for his taxi by the lights, you chat a little, and at least he has enough manners to ask how you will get home. With a shrug, you casually reply that you will walk back since your house is close enough.
What you don't expect is for your friend to simply nod, give you a half-assed hug that borders on a shoulder ram, jump into his taxi, and leave without looking back.
Stupefied, you can only stare at the plate of said taxi growing smaller in the distance.
It's fine. It's a bit of a long walk for midnight, especially when the number of people have dwindled to the extremes yet with some large groups suspiciously loitering around, but it's a safe neighbourhood. You'll be fine.
As if on cue, your screen lights up with a notification from Albatross.
Tross <3: heyyyy
its gettin late
did the cafe not kick you out yet lmao
You: They kinda did, actually
Said the kitchen was closing in a little so we left
Friend went home already
I'm walking home now, so omw
Tross <3: ????
[Incoming call from: Tross <3]
Your finger slides over the green button easily, even though you know what he's going to say. "'Sup?"
"Why are you walking home?! By yourself, no less!" The familiar sound of a billiard ball hitting another echoes in the background, and you're able to pinpoint his exact location from the noise alone. The buzz of pleasant chatter in the room comes to a screeching halt at his words.
"Don't even ask," you spit out, pinching the bridge of your nose, cold wind whipping at your cheeks. "The more I think about it, the angrier I get."
"I'm on my way." You hear clothes rustling, which you assume is him putting on his jacket. "Go back into the café for a little while. I'll be right there."
"'Tross, it's fine, really—" You're quick to protest, though Albatross is just as quicker to cut you off before you can go about your usual tirade of how you don't want to trouble him, or be a burden, or other stupid thoughts about how you have it handled.
"Don't be stupid. It's not fine, first of all, and it's no trouble.... Oh, is it cold outside? Should I take the car? I'd arrive faster by bike, but if you're wearing a skirt it might be a little... y'know."
"The bike is fine." It takes active effort not to tear up at how considerate he's being. "Think of it as bail."
"The only bail around will be the bail money needed to get me outta jail after I'm done with your fuckass friend." He chuckles, though the humour feels a bit forced. "Stay on the line, will ya? Tell me all about your day."
You can tell he's just as mad you've been left stranded by someone whom you consider an old friend with no regards to your safety, but is trying to lighten the mood by being silly. You don't have the words to describe how much you appreciate it. Appreciate him.
True to his word, Albatross arrives soon after. Concerningly soon, even, before you're able to wrap up recounting your entire day, and how the last round of coffees arrived oddly cold despite your table being inside.
He gives you a short honk in greeting, lifting his visor to give you a wink paired with a cheeky grin, flipping — or trying to flip — his hair like he's some Prince Charming. Only, his braid pathetically swats against the inside of his helmet, not a single flow of luscious golden locks in sight.
"How many red lights did you run?" you chuckle, jogging down the stairs as fast as your shoes allow to meet him as soon as possible.
"Dunno," he shrugs, successfully dodging your hand lazily swatting at him scoldingly, "Haven't bothered to check."
"You're impossible." You bow your head slightly on instinct the moment you spot your matching red helmet in his hands so he can put it on for you, ".... Thanks for coming to pick me up."
"Always, babe." He chirps, tone breezy, unaware of how the casual petname makes your heart ache with want.
After checking whether everything is in order, he gives your helmet a bump with his own, almost like a ritual, a signal that you're good to go, which he makes clear by fixing his posture and grip so you can climb behind him. "I've gotcha."
Arms wrapped around his waist, visor flush against his shoulderblade, watching the city lights morph from twinkling dots to bright streaks in the night sky, your mind wanders. Your heart beating against his back in a flurry of emotions, you think it might have been the first time you acknowledged you might be feeling something more than just friendship for the irresistible wheelman after all.
The dream haunts you.
It doesn't help that you have bodily reactions every time you think about it, which might as well be every passing second. Squirming in place, taking a deep breath or sighing to ground yourself, pacing around the room, anything to get your mind off of the unnecessarily detailed dream of fucking your best friend your brain decided to present you on a random weekday like a cat bringing its owner a dead mouse.
It's even worse when you remember you promised Albatross to hang out today, having planned out a cosy movie night last week with great enthusiasm, no less. Bailing now would raise suspicion in more than just Albatross, honestly, and you would rather not be subjected to Lippmann's all-knowing smile a second more than necessary.
You can do this. You've pretended way worse things than feeling normal about someone.
Everything goes as planned after Albatross arrives. Snacks arranged, pillows in place, and blanket shared, the remote never leaving your greedy paws until the loading screen is displayed on the large screen. It's a movie from your favourite studio you haven't had the time to watch yet, animated yet handling mature elements in an engaging story and offering gorgeous visuals, perfectly in character choice for you.
Also, the perfect opportunity for you to fix your eyes somewhere and overthink everything involving the man who's sprawled on the couch right next to you, having the audacity to yawn at your carefully chosen pick.
Not even half an hour into the movie, Albatross speaks up.
"...... So. Are ya gonna tell me what's got you actin' all weird, or..?" He murmurs, pointedly keeping his eyes on the TV to make it feel more like a casual conversation rather than aggressive prodding that would put you on defense, shoveling some popcorn in his mouth.
Of course he would notice. You didn't expect anything less.
"I had a dream." You reply, a cryptic sigh leaving you. Lying is useless against him, especially with how well he knows you. It's better to withhold the truth as much as possible.
That's how being close with someone works, unfortunately. Quite inconvenient when you have something to hide.
Maybe you should've picked a movie that's more action centric to keep Albatross engaged so he would be distracted enough to not pick up on your predicament. Contrary to popular belief, he is scarily perceptive when it matters, able to sniff out details he cares for like a bloodhound, and of course, that applies to the cause of your iffy behaviour.
"It was about me, wasn't it?" He speaks up after a moment of silence, finally turning to look at you, shifting on the couch to face you fully for good measure, propping up an elbow on the back of the couch, and resting his cheek against his fist. "You're only actin' odd around me; like you want to avoid me, but also to avoid avoiding me at the same time, kinda."
You give him a non-committal hum to fill the silence while you think about how to go about this, though Albatross takes it as his cue to elaborate.
"What did I do, hm?" He scoots close, gently digging a finger in your side with his free hand, his other arm flattening against the back of the couch, fingertips brushing against your shoulder. "Did I use you as zombie bait in the apocalypse?" Cocking his head to the side not unlike a cat, he adds, "Oh! Did I point out that you wore your shirt inside out in front of a bunch of people instead of whispering it in your ear?" Then, taking on a mischievous tone, he cozies up to you, teasingly batting his lashes, "Or what, did you have a wet dream about me?"
He likely offered up such a ridiculous excuse to lighten the mood, not knowing he'd hit the nail right on the head. You cannot stop the way breath lodges in your throat, making only the slightest noise, the gasp itself barely louder than an inhale, but the split-second pause is all he needs for an answer.
"You did." He blinks, "You had a wet dream about me?"
Simply closing your eyes in surrender, you let your head fall back against the back of the couch with a muted thud.
You wish the impact would kill you somehow, just to avoid the following conversation, but the padding of the couch aside, his arm cushions the force in which you hit your head.
The silence is deafening, and in a moment of bravery, you crack open an eye to assess the damage.
".... Hey." Albatross prompts, lower lip sagging, "Was it like, bad, or something..?"
".... What?" Your face scrunches at the sheer idiocy coming out of his mouth. Which is nothing new, but the context has you distressed.
"Did I not manage to get it up?" He blurts out, the hand over your shoulders closing into a fist, lips tightly pressed together as if he's bracing for an impact. On his ego, probably.
"No!! What the fuck, 'tross—"
"Oh-kay, sheesh," he visibly relaxes, waving his fist in a victorious motion akin to a fist bump in the air, "Gave me a real scare there. That'd be embarrassing," he beams, the grin stretching his lips almost splitting his face in half. Then, much like the Golden Retriever puppies you've seen Chuuya eyeing on adoption websites, he all but pounces on you, excitement wafting off him in waves. "Babe, you gotta tell me all about it!!" Toppling you over successfully when you're unguarded and still trying to digest the situation, he effectively traps you beneath him with his arms framing your head, your shoulders digging into the armrest with the awkward position halfway between sitting up and lying down. "Was I any good, then? Oh, tell me I rocked your world!"
"I—" you blink, trying to find the words, "Huh..?"
"I need details. Now."
"Sorry, what exactly is happening right now?" You squint, trying to stabilize your spiking pulse, trying to sit up a bit more as if it will make you focus better. "You're not upset?"
"Far from it, really." Albatross shrugs, mouth curled into an easygoing smile, "Hyped would be one way to describe it, I guess. I mean, guess that's because the feeling is mutual. I had a dream or two or five about you myself, so..." he trails off, leaning in closer to your face, he whispers, "'m just curious about yours. Very curious. Don't you dare leave anything out."
He looks unfairly handsome with the lights from the colourful scenes of the movie reflecting from his face.
"You also dreamt of—"
"Yeah, yeah, I also dreamt of fucking my best friend. Total shocker, I know." Albatross waves you off without a care in the world, as if you're having trouble understanding the simplest concept in the world. "My turn now. Your turn later. I want details."
"I—" you swallow thickly, "Are you sure..?"
"Duh, why wouldn't I be?" A brief look of terror crosses his face as he asks, "I made you cum, right?"
You burst into laughter, a hand coming up to cover your mouth, "Yeah—" you shoot an exaggerated look at his crotch hovering over yours, "It was performing as intended, I assure you." You manage to choke out between giggles, melting further into the cushions once the laughter dies down. Albatross follows your movement, leaning down further into your space.
One of your hands reaches up to card your fingers through his hair before you can stop yourself, the gesture somehow feeling more intimate than any other that preceded it. "You were buck naked, for one."
"Right off the bat?" His mouth drops open. "No sexy foreplay, no strip teasing?" He looks awfully adorable when flabbergasted.
"Shut up," you half-heartedly kick at him, acutely aware of despite how close he is, breath fanning your face and all, he's still making sure you have a comfortable space between the two of you, as if he's giving you the opportunity to wriggle away if you don't want him crowding you. While you appreciate it, it also feels insulting, somehow.
"It started off with you thrusting into me." The memory of the motion alone is enough to fan the flames of arousal in your core, a familiar warmth blooming in your abdomen. In a feeble attempt to turn the tables even a tiny bit, you reach behind him, shoving a hand in his back pocket and pressing down, so his hips are flush against yours.
The strangled sound that rips from his throat counts as your victory.
"I cannot believe this," He clicks his tongue, chewing on his lip. "You animal." Albatross laughs, "Getting right to the good stuff."
"Gee, my apologies," you roll your eyes, sarcasm bleeding from your tone, "It's almost like I was dreaming rather than directing a porn clip."
A contemplative hum leaves his lips before he rolls his hips against yours gently, as if testing the waters; "Like this?"
"Harder," You gasp before you can stop yourself, mouth hanging open as a shiver runs down your spine. Albatross is quick to pick up on the cue, increasing the pressure with which he grinds against you, each movement feeling more intentional than the next. It's a struggle to keep your eyes from rolling to the back of your head. Pulling him as close as possible with the intention of burying your face in the crook of his neck so he can't see all the embarrassing expressions you cannot control, though he doesn't let you, brushing his nose against yours and pulling back a bit to drive his point home.
The next moment you find your voice, "You had your sunglasses on, by the way," you tack on.
"The sunglasses stay on during sex?" he snickers at the absurdity, his honey brown eyes start shimmering in the low light with unshed tears from how hard he's holding back from full-on bursting into laughter.
"They're an iconic part of your look, okay?" you chuckle, a hint of defensiveness in your voice, "I remember the sunglasses because you tried sucking a hickey on my neck and it dug into my skin, and got crooked on your face."
"Good thing I don't have them on right now, then." His lips are on your neck halfway through your sentence, mumbling against your skin in between open-mouthed kisses with the occasional graze of teeth; "Not like they would've stopped me."
"Heh, figures," Sliding a hand through his hair, you grab a fistful of the blond locks, some gelled strands digging into your palm in a rougher texture compared to the rest as you crane your head to the side to give him more room to explore, guiding him over your pulse. "We just giggled about it before you chucked them at the nightstand and dived in to kiss me."
As if the hazy memories from the dream you recount are a direct order, plush lips press against yours, a low groan mixing in with a soft mewl. Your back arches off the couch to press yourself impossibly close to him as if there was any space left between you in the first place, and apparently, the feeling is mutual, judging by how you feel an arm sneaking under you, pulling you closer by the small of your waist.
"Did I use tongue?" Albatross doesn't bother fully pulling back to speak, voice low and raspy with desire, though it's not like you mind, only humming affirmatively.
"Huzzah," he huffs in triumph, tongue flattening against your mouth teasingly, his lips curling up when your lips part in invitation for him, and he wastes no time sneaking his tongue in your mouth.
It feels infinitely better than your imagination, to the point you cannot pinpoint where to focus.
His tongue is warm and wet, gliding against yours. His grip on your hip is firm and heavy like an anchor keeping you grounded, as if he's not pinning you to the cushions already. Heat pools in your stomach, slick coating your underwear and clinging to your inner thighs, and you absentmindedly curse both him and yourself for wearing light coloured bottoms. With how uncomfortable the wetness between your legs is getting — either due to lack of actual stimulation or because your underwear is sopping wet — you haven't a sliver of a doubt that there is a dark streak on both of your sweatpants putting your arousal on display.
Albatross pulls back, tongue lolling out with a string of saliva connecting you, and like any normal person, decides to cut it off with another, less sloppy kiss.
"... I think we might have to improv a bit," He swallows thickly, waving his fingers suggestively, "Gotta prep, right?"
An indignant whine leaves your mouth when he brings said hand towards his face — because how dare he take away the opportunity to keep your mouth busy with his fingers away from you — and you latch onto his wrist quicker than you thought possible, bringing his hand down to your mouth to take his middle and ring finger into your mouth, swirling your tongue around the digits, the cool metal of his rings against your chin a welcome change from the heat threatening to swallow you whole.
He rewards you with an audible gasp.
Keeping your hand on his wrist, right over his thunderous pulse, you meet his gaze fixated on you. Through half-lidded eyes and your foggy thoughts, you get your first clear look at him.
His hair is in even more of a disarray than usual from all the times your hands have messed up the strands. His braid is loose, hanging on for dear life to keep even the semblance of the shape it was in when he first arrived. You're not sure whether you pulled off his hair tie or if the elastic snapped off somewhere down the line. His face is flushed with a rosy tint, his baggy shirt halfway off his shoulders, the tent in his pants resting against your thigh, his chest rising and falling with his erratic breathing as doe brown eyes look at you with overwhelming affection, obvious even through the layer of lust.
Making sure to give his joints a gentle nip before letting his fingers out of your mouth, you smirk, "That good enough prep for you?"
"More than," he chuckles breathlessly, pointing below you with his eyes, "Can I?"
Despite the urge to give a smartass reply or tease him as you thought you would many times, the only word you manage to get out is a simple, raw, "Yes."
Albatross must be equally as eager, if not more, judging by the way he dives forward, mouth latching onto your collarbone and working down your chest as his hands trail down your body, fingers drawing soothing circles before you feel them toying with the elastic of your waistband, tugging and pulling before letting it snap back against your skin.
Craning his head up from your sternum, he shoots you a pleading look which you cannot quite decipher, though you answer nonetheless.
"What, getting cold feet?"
"Excuse you," Something akin to an offended squawk leaves his mouth, and he places a defiant bite on the curve of your breast. "You're so mean to me sometimes." He sighs, looking briefly like a soggy, dejected cat before he perks back up again, "Kinda into it, though."
"Wasn't the point of this to see if you can hold a candle to my imagination or something?" Tone taking on a teasing sneer, you raise an eyebrow, "I say you're falling behind on performance, 'Tross. I would've been a puddle on the bed five times over by now in my dream."
"Oh, yeah?" A rough hand sneaks past your underwear, giving your clit a light flick, sending a jolt through your entire body. "No prep, no foreplay, straight to penetration— I think you're missing a few pages in the scenario, sweetheart. That's not how this works." Two fingers dip between your folds, making sure to coat the digits in your arousal before prodding at your entrance, "Dream me fuckin' sucks. Can't believe I didn't even eat you out."
As if to solidify his point, he slides a finger in, pumping it in and out to test the waters before adding in another finger, curling them just right that your back arches off the cushions as if on command.
"Ah, 'Tross—" you choke, hips jerking into his hand on reflex, "Fuck—"
"We need to work on my image in your subconscious," he pouts, though he's not fully sulking, a mischievous glint ever so present in his eyes. "I'll stick to the script for now, but you better let me between your thighs and squeeze my skull 'till it cracks later."
"Mhm," you nod feverishly, the words alone sending a pang of pleasure to your core. "Please—" you grab his shoulder, clawing to get support so you can sit up.
Albatross, ever perceptive, picks up on what you want, and your eyes widen comically when he pulls you up effortlessly, stopping you from headbutting him with a hand on your neck, though not without sneaking in a short kiss.
As if that will be enough.
Mirroring his pose, you splay a palm on his nape to support yourself, crashing your lips into his, nipping and biting whenever you see fit, shuffling on his lap so you can sneak your other hand between your bodies to palm his dick through his pants, earning yourself a high-pitched whine.
"Whoa, aggressive much—" Albatross chirps jokingly, though he jolts in place when you give him a soft squeeze in retaliation, whatever other teasing quips he had in mind flying out the window before he could voice them. His fingers in you twitch along with his entire body, drawing a soft noise from your throat.
"We've already improvised so much," you start, catching his lower lip between your teeth, pulling back slightly before releasing it, "I'm sure it's fine if we take some other artistic liberties. Deviating from the source material isn't a crime, is it?" Hooking a finger in his waistband, you drag your finger down until his hip bone is visible, looking at him for any sign of discomfort or protest.
Instead, Albatross gently lifts you up by the hips so you can pull his pants down without struggle, setting you back down when you leave the fabric bunched up around his thighs.
Saliva pools in your mouth at the sight of his hard cock resting against his belly button, the tip flushed and leaking with precum — many thoughts buzzing in your head. About how much you want to taste the pearlescent drops from his tip on your tongue, about how much you want to close your lips around his tip and suck him off until he becomes a whining, whimpering mess even though the position you're currently in is not so ideal to execute your heinous plans, and how much you want to feel him one way or the other; whether it's his girth stretching your throat or your walls pulsing with need, or his tip tickling the back of your throat or your—
"Like what you see?" Albatross gives you a crooked grin, all boisterous confidence, leaning back on his hand to give you more room to stare.
Realising you have to swallow before you speak lest you drool all over him like a salivating dog, you do so. Quite audibly, too.
No, really. The noise itself is quite cartoonish.
Albatross throws his head back with a loud laugh, equal parts entertained and flabbergasted as he points to his erection with his chin, "'m guessin' that means I live up to your expectations?"
Pressing your lips in a thin line, you close your eyes and take a deep breath. It really can't get any worse, and you doubt Albatross would hold you being absolutely smitten with him against you. "... Down to the curve, really."
"Perv," he chuckles fondly, cupping your cheek tenderly and placing a kiss on your lips, then your jaw, then under your ear. You're beginning to think of him as an opportunist, given how frequently he's kissing you all over. You can't quite place whether it's because he has been holding back for so long, or because he's having some odd ideas like not being able to do this once this whole ordeal blows over.
"We don't have to go all the way, y'know?" He catches the soft skin of your neck between his teeth, playfully grinding his teeth before suckling hard enough to leave a mark.
In all your enthusiasm, you're most upset about both of you not having marked each other as thoroughly as you wanted to, but alas. Next time it is.
"I want to," you crane your head to press your lips against his temple before pulling back to meet his eyes, the vulnerable look in his gaze catching you by surprise. "And I want you to know this isn't a— I don't know. A fling, or a one-time thing." Despite being more exposed physically than you have ever been in front of someone, you've never felt more naked emotionally. "I know this," gesturing vaguely at the space between you, "...happened because of a wet dream, but I do have genuine feelings for you. Beyond lust."
"Me too." He blurts out all too quickly in a flurry of emotions ranging from relief to exasperation. "You're surprisingly dense when it comes to romance, you know?" He sighs, the tension in his shoulders bleeding from his frame with the exhale, "I mean, I get it. We've been close friends for so long on top of your romance receptors being busted, so I can't really fault you for not getting any of the hints I've been dropping, but still." a brief moment of silence later, "Though I think this is a conversation for when we're not half naked and on the verge of fucking."
"Looks like we got ourselves a subject of discussion for the pillow talk, then."
"I should go get a condom if we're gonna commit," Albatross nudges your cheek with his nose before setting you down on the couch, waddling away to his backpack thrown somewhere around the shoe rack in the entrance before you can fix him with an incredulous glare for the implications, though you try to refrain from overthinking it.
"Yes, men are all animals." The way he casually tears open the packaging with his teeth shouldn't be this attractive, nor should the way he rolls the condom down on himself in practiced motions be this distracting. "Yes, I've been carrying these around just in case, with you in mind, in case I get lucky— or to be a bro in case one of my buds needed it—"
"Shut up, 'Tross."
Locking lips once more, you finally, finally manage to sink yourself down on his cock with him guiding your hips, both your mouths dropping open with silent moans as you take a moment to still and bask in the feeling. It's a relief how easily he slides into you even without lube — you've been agonising over how you were going to compensate for the lack of it in case there was any need, though with how aroused and relaxed you are, combined with the prep Albatross insisted on providing with his deft fingers, it's not completely unexpected that you make the slide more than slippery.
Hesitantly, carefully pushing yourself up, you find that you still have full feeling in your legs, though you're sure it won't last long. Sinking back down just as slowly to get used to the feeling — and maybe to be a bit of a bully to both him and yourself, but whose business is that?
His, apparently.
"Don't edge me," Albatross whines, lower lip sagging in a pout, "I'll burst, I mean it."
"You're making it, nngh— really hard not to," you pant, picking up the pace despite yourself, losing yourself in the zaps of electrifying pleasure shooting up your spine with every thrust. "Feels so good—"
"Yeah?" Albatross seems to be dead set on egging you on, distinctly aware of the way you tighten around him whenever he speaks up. "I'll see how you'll beg me for help when you can't hold yourself up anymore." Even with the half-joking threat, he keeps a firm grip on your hip to assist in keeping you balanced, ever so benevolent.
"I can—" your voice wavers, "I can fuck myself on you just fine—" Contrary to your words, your muscles are already screaming in protest, threatening to give out even while chasing your high in a frenzy.
You're close, *so close*, but you can't be sure if you'll hold as well as you keep talking big.
"Your thighs are shaking already." Albatross' smile is all teeth, almost predatory in nature, bordering on feral as he leans in, nothing like the soft smiles or boyish grins he's been giving you up until now, "I might consider taking over now if you ask nicely."
On one hand, you want to be stubborn, to see your words through, to emerge victorious. On the other, the opportunity to lie back without a burning pain tearing through your muscles, melting into the pillows while Albatross rams into you relentlessly until you see stars, is being presented to you on a silver platter by the man himself.
The selfish side of the princess inside you that wants to be tended to and taken care of weighs heavier than the prideful side of you that only wants to rely on yourself.
The tears blurring your sight is the perfect tool to utilise to deal the final blow.
Reaching out, you cup his face gingerly with both hands, looking at him through your damp lashes, mustering up your best pleading expression, and, "Please make me cum, 'Tross."
Albatross looks like the cat that caught the canary.
Suddenly, the wind is knocked out of your lungs. You find your gaze on the ceiling, your back flush against the cushions as Albatross pins you down, and you barely realise the hand at the back of your hand to soften the impact by the time it pulls away in favour of throwing one of your legs over his shoulder.
"See, was that so hard?" A single thrust from him shakes you in place, tearing a pathetic mewl from your throat as tears of pleasure rush to your eyes, and you grab whatever is within your reach to ground yourself, which happens to be the blanket bunched up and abandoned a while back. "I've gotcha."
The worst part of it all is how he doesn't sound the slightest bit strained, even with how vigorously he's drilling you into the couch, curse him and his ridiculous stamina.
"'Tross—" you pant, blinking the tears away, hips twitching uselessly under his hold as he sets the pace at his discretion, loving kisses peppered along your neck, your fingers tangling in messy blond hair. Albatross seems to be happy just the way things are, judging by how loudly he is moaning in your ear. "I'm— ah, mmh— Albatross!"
"I've gotcha," he repeats, the hand on your hip tightening its hold reassuringly, nuzzling your neck, and somehow, that's what tips you over the edge.
With a choked cry, you throw your head back as the coil in your abdomen snaps in a haze of molten desire, white spots dancing in your vision as your nails dig into Albatross' shoulders, walls pulsing around his length and thighs trembling around his hips.
Albatross is not too far behind, judging by how his pace stutters, his breath growing more ragged by the minute.
While your legs feel nothing short of jelly, you let one drop from over Albatross' shoulder in favour of wrapping both legs around his waist tightly, rolling your hips into his to the best of your abilities, "Need you, 'Tross," pecking at his jawline, "Please—"
With a broken groan, he spills into you, riding out his high until he no longer can, his body settling on top of yours, going lax in your arms. His pull weight on you feels comforting, rather than suffocating. Even with his now soft dick still inside you, you can feel his cum dripping out of your cunt and onto the couch, though you cannot bring yourself to care about the details of how you're going to clean everything up.
The room is dimmer than you remember. A look to the side tells you that the TV has shut itself off after a long time of inactivity.
"We should clean up," Pressing your lips on his sweat-slicked brow, huffing when you're met with a resistant whine.
"Don' wanna," Albatross mumbles, pointedly burying his face in your neck.
"'Tross, we're sticky," You sigh, "The couch is sticky, everything is sticky."
No response.
"We can cuddle in bed more comfortably after we clean up," you tack on in a hopeful attempt at coaxing him out, "Pillow talk and all that."
It's funny how you can physically see him perk up at that. It's like you can see an imaginary tail wagging behind him.
(NOT A REQUEST I JUST WANT SOMEONE TO TALK TO AB THE FLAGS) Don't ask me why this is so specific but albatross( Or js the flags in general) with p! T! Reader who has an southern accent. I feel like Albatross would sometimes teasing reader for not pronouncing they're R's
HI OMG!!
as someone from the south with a lil bit of an accent, i LOVE this!! literally makin sweet tea as we type gjfjh
thinkin about how some of the flags are american (i only remember doc being mentioned but i SWEAR others were!!) but they don't really strike me as the type to be from down here? that's weird to say but YOU PROBABLY GET IT I MEAN
anyways they'd all probably make fun of reader for it, maybe except iceman. albatross would repeat what you said in an accent to mock you ABSOLUTELY
HI OMGOGMGOGMGKGJGKGFG SORRY TO REQUEST AND BOTHER BUT. CAN YOU DO. LIPPMANN HCS.. I KNOW THAT'S VAGUE SO YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT WITH IT IM JUST. I NNNEEED LIPPMANN CONTNENT PSLFJFFJ TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF REMEMBER TO HYDRATE
Worry not! My requests are open, you can send me asks whenever you like ❤️
Thank you for your continued patronage.
Lippmann headcanons
•Lippmann’s very courteous and usually initially watches how he acts towards you, wanting to gain a good impression you can associate him with.
•He’s not doing this because he wants to deceive you— quite the opposite actually. He wants you to trust him, to make you see that he’s actually someone you can rely on despite the nature of his job that normally deceives people.
•Lippmann is good at catering to what you may want, though sometimes it may come off as excessive. If you don’t set proper boundaries, the light affection of giving gifts may turn overwhelming after some time.
•He would love it whenever you give something to him in return, it could be food you made, or maybe a handmade bracelet he would wear all day everyday once he gets it from you. Chuuya would complain about how annoying Lippmann is about it at some point, but the latter wouldn’t really be too concerned— he sings you praises behind your back.
•If you’re not a member of the mafia and knows what he’s actually doing instead of seeing just the facade he puts on for the public but refuse to turn him away or judge him, his love for you would increase tenfold. It would mean a lot to him for you to understand and still love him despite that, he’d understand too if you’re afraid. Don’t worry though, rest assured he won’t turn a blind eye to you if you’re in trouble.
•He’s surprisingly a bit shy when showing romantic gestures to you; he’s no stranger to hand holding, it puts him in a serene mood, something considerably less hectic than his lifestyle both as an actor and a mafioso.
•He’d teach you how to play billiards, he’s a gentle teacher, so you’ll be fine most games. He lets you win too— it’s a little thing that you two can bond over with together.
•He flirts lightly when teaching you too, and sometimes you both will become a subject of teasing by the other members of the flags because of this. They mean well and he knows this, and this often results in banter that everyone will laugh about for a week.
•He’s very reassuring in giving you compliments, it could be the little things really, maybe your hobby, maybe your hair, maybe the way you speak or your eyes. He’s very smooth about it, seamless in delivery.
•Lippmann would kiss you under the light of a lamp post either at dusk or very early in the morning before he departs from you for a job. He covers your kiss away from the eyes of others with the small book he often carries with him, the kiss being sweet and brief, before he gives you a beautiful smile and looks at you with adoration and then leaving.
•When you’re sad, he will let you talk it out while hugging you. As a negotiator, he’s a very good listener and remembers almost every single detail that you told him— he thinks it’s important, a good way to know more about you and he feels that you spilling your sadness for his ears to hear has a degree of intimacy to it. He takes it as you trusting him with your feelings. He’s more than happy to keep your secrets.
•On a bit of a darker note, much like Iceman he’s willing to resort to violence for you if he needs to. He’d usually try to settle it with a talk first, but sometimes, words aren’t needed because actions deliver a better message. He isn’t afraid to get dirty— he can always buy another coat if the one he’s wearing cannot be thoroughly cleaned. What’s more important is you. No money or a piece of clothing would be equal to you, and he will make sure you know that.
Sitting in a room with the flags and you have to choose your seat-
Your options are-
**trigger warning: mildly suggestive content in piano man’s.**
•piano man’s lap- his hands are constantly skimming your waist a brushing over your thighs. He’s doing it absentmindedly, or at least that’s what he wants it to look like. Every move of his hand is intentional… while he smiles and laughs with the other flags. He’s touching you up, and pretending to not even be thinking about what he’s doing. He’ll put his chin on your shoulder with a closed eyed smile as he talks about some mission he had that day to the other flags…. But they’re all too secretly focused on his hand to listen…. His hand which is… under your skirt…. Squeezing your thighs… and when someone finally calls him out for it he hums. “Oops…. Guess i wasn’t paying attention….” His eyes open to an narrow gaze with a smug smirk. “But y/n doesn’t mind… do you dear….” You shake your head no as his hands ride higher, rubbing at your inner thighs as he purrs. “See… there’s no problem… and if it’s your jealousy, I’d like to remind you all that I’m the leader. I get first dibs….”
Albatross’s lap- good luck getting comfortable because he’s moving moving moving. Can’t sit still type but he WANTS you on his lap. So no you can’t get up and move because you chose to sit there and now you have to stay with him. Albatross coos to the group about how cute you are every couple of minutes, poking your cheeks and kissing at your temples. You’ll find yourself suddenly being held cradle style in his arms, and he’ll show off how secretly strong he is when he stands up with you bridal style so he can go get himself something to drink. Really he’s just taking you into the kitchen so he can sit you on the counter and slide himself between your legs. He wraps both arms around your waist and grins up at you, begging for a kiss and telling you the others don’t have to know.
Lippmann’s lap- he raises a brow when you choose your seat with him but he’s all too pleased with your choice of seating. He normally isn’t one to initiate lots and lots of physical contact but you’ve made it too easy for him… and you’re clearly comfortable with his closeness. Lippmann’s gentle hand caressing your hair as he speaks so eloquently to the group, only pausing to look down at you with a soft smile and whisper at a tone no one else can hear. “You’re beautiful…” Someone else is quick to angrily ask him what he just whispered to you (most likely albatross or chuuya.) but he just looks up with a soft smile and hum’s. “Some secrets must stay between the bounds of lovers…. I don’t need to tell you what i told her.” “Yeah but she’s not your lover so buzz off!!” Lippmann braids your hair while he talks, pausing to occasionally pepper gentle kisses along your jaw, calling you a sea of romantic and poetic pet names.
Doc’s lap- well- not his lap to be exact. That’s not an excellent idea as he’s incredibly bony, as well as easy to hurt if you shifted the wrong way. But he’s all to happy to pull you right up next to him and wrap an arm around your waist. You’ve set yourself up to be studied by him for the rest of the night. He quietly inspects your hair, running his fingers through it. He brushes his fingers along your skin, mumbling about how soft it is. If he’s not doing that then he might as well be in your lap, because he’s going to be laying all over you. Your shoulders? his pillows. Your chest? His pillows. Your thighs? His pillows. He’ll carry on with his same casual and odd conversation input with the others, while practically crawling into your skin, his head nuzzling into your thighs. Can and will absolutely shamelessly grab your hand and put it on his head. You know what he wants and you better pet that boy’s hair.
Iceman’s lap- he seems mildly shocked when you choose his lap as your resting place, but he’s cool with it, and he shows you that. His hands remain somewhat idle, but he wraps his arms around your waist and quietly rests his chin on your shoulder while he listened to the others ramble, only giving his input every few minutes. If the others aren’t looking he might dip his nose into the crook of your neck and quietly breath in your scent for a second, squeezing you a little tighter. If he had something to tell you he mutters it softly into your ear instead of saying it loudly for the others to hear. “Is that a new shampoo? It doesn’t have the coconut scent like your old one….” “It is… how’d you notice?” “Mm~ i just notice these things i guess….” Sometimes he just closes his eyes, and you’ll catch him dozing off on your shoulder. Only wake him up if you have to. He works at night a lot when he’s doing his hitman work so he’s secretly very very sleepy.
Maybeeee flags with a s/o who loves to dote on them?
Ya know- like- cooking them food and giving them lots and lots of physical affection, like kisses and head rubs and snuggles. Tight hugs and lots of cooing about how cute they are.
Hello Stormbringer fan!! I loved your idea. Enjoy!
_
Doc:
He doesn't take good care of himself even though he's a doctor.
So when you give him all that affection
His mind is turned upside down.
Repays everything in his own way
Whenever you go to see him to deliver your food
He asks if everything is ok
Doing a little checkup
Just to be close and kiss you on the tip of your nose
(Thank God you're in his life)
Ice Man:
He would find it kind of weird at first you know,
He is known as someone who has a cold heart, of course he is not used to being treated with such affection.
But trust me, he will get used to it.
Always says you don't have to worry about him
But appreciate EVERY ONE of your deeds
from a simple compliment to a tight hug.
(Every time he sees you there's a kinda soft smile on his face <3)
Lipp Man:
It's funny to think about it because Lipp Man likes to dote you
So when you also demonstrate this to him
your heart melts~
Sometimes it feels like you're in a competition
(But fuck it, what matters is that this relationship will be the most loving and healthy of all.)
LOVES ABOVE ALL your cooing.
Albatross:
A boy in love.
I truly believe he enjoys quality time and physical touch.
So when someone matches the same - and a little more - HE BREAKS OUT OF HAPPINESS.
He loves the food you make for him with passion.
Call him cute and he'll flash a big smile with strawberry red cheeks.
>>>>Albatross blushing is my dream<<<<
Repays double
Piano Man:
He's more used to giving and not receiving
Because as a leader he likes to know people's needs
So it's kind of like IceMan saying you don't have to do all this for him
But this man needs rest, affection and attention.
secretly he LOVES it when you randomly run your hand through his hair.
An angel in his life that's what you are :)
a mini-series of one shots dedicated specifically for the characters of bungo stray dogs: stormbringer!
✑ 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙢 𝙣𝙤𝙩𝙚𝙨 !
based on the planets suite, op. 32 by gustav holst, one of my favorite orchestral works ever. i thought it would be nice to write something for this, mostly because i attended a very special performance of it around a month ago (and also to celebrate the manga adaptation that recently came out)!
because the piece contains seven movements based on each planet of the solar system (as well as their respective personalities), i will be assigning one movement per character, as listed below:
i. mars, bringer of war : paul verlaine x reader
the ominous and angry first movement of the entire suite ; represents the roman god of war, mars
contains nsfw. MDNI!
ii. venus, bringer of peace : lippmann x reader
the ethereal yet eerie second movement, a slower contrast to the first ; represents the roman goddess of love, venus
iii. mercury, the winged messenger : albatross x reader
the fast and vivacious third movement, short yet playful ; represents the roman god of commerce and messengers, mercury
iv. jupiter, bringer of jollity : piano man x reader
the well-known and majestic fourth movement of the planets containing the most popular theme of the seven ; represents the roman king of all gods, jupiter
v. saturn, bringer of old age : iceman x reader
the slow and unsettlingly powerful fifth movement accompanied by a harp with passages as icy as the planet’s rings ; represents the roman god of time, saturn
vi. uranus, the magician : adam frankenstein x reader
the boisterous and idiosyncratic sixth movement ; represents the roman god of the sky, uranus
vii. neptune, the mystic : doc x reader
the mysterious and other-worldly seventh movement ; represents the roman god of the sea, neptune
✑ 𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙤𝙧𝙚 !
typically, when a performance is well-received, an encore unrelated to the main repertoire played follows. that being said, i’ll be applying the same principle for this mini-series for another character if the audience wishes. should these one shots be received well enough, i will add a bonus (underrated) character to the list, based on the helios overture, op. 17 by carl nielsen, just to complete the entire solar system for this repertoire. ;>
(encore!) an overture to helios : ??? x reader
a concert overture so warm and brooding, it paints a picture of the sun rising and falling over the aegean sea with swelling strings ; dedicated to helios / sol, god of the sun
i have so much love for this piece in particular (as it is one of the orchestral works i grew up listening to), so i hope you guys get to enjoy it as much as i do through some of the stormbringer characters. 🫶 much like holst himself (who favored saturn), i also have a favorite movement here so i tried not to be so biased about it lmao (i gave it to piano man).
these one shots won’t be connected in any way (unless you’re creative enough to find some way to connect them lol)! feel free to read them in any order — i assigned those movements to certain characters solely because i thought they fit the music and the context behind each part of the suite. :}
as for the scheduling: expect the one-shot to drop every time a new chapter of hoshikawa’s stormbringer adaptation is out (which means this will be monthly)! i will do my best to time it right!
next one-shot: lippmann x reader -> april 30!
also, just a short heads-up: some one shots may or may not contain nsfw! and as always, when that is the case, MDNI!
anyway, hopefully i get to play this piece one day! :’>
Hi Benni can I request the Flags with an aromantic/asexual reader? I say I'm straight but most of the time I feel like I have no romantic feelings towards anybody and I get kind of '...ew' when someone suggests romance to me...
Of course you don't have to do this if you don't want to!
Hello Silver, as a person on the Aromantic spectrum I understand you perfectly! But I feel that this hc would be a bit repetitive and short so I'll do it a little differently:
a headcanon together and general
The Flags whit an Aromantic/Asexual reader
for people who don't know yet I'll explain, aromantic: people who feel little or no romantic attraction, Asexual: People who feel little or no sexual attraction.
First, you will have to explain about your sexuality to Albatross, the boy doesn't really know what it is (and in the end he would like to know about the history of the whole community)
But other than that, know that NONE of them would object or make you uncomfortable, especially Lipp Man as he talks to and observes a lot of different people every day.
(And I actually have a personal hc about asexual Doc but that's a story for another time).
Each of them will understand and respect your decisions and limits easily, after all, it will still be a normal relationship and full of affection and joy.
If by any chance you haven't already told them out of fear and are restless:
Lipp Man, Piano Man and Doc caught on quickly and got right to the point. While Albatross and Ice Man, as new to relationships, will take a while to figure it out but haven't pressed.
They will always be supporting you and protecting you from prejudiced people and idiots (which most of the time can end in death: Doc and Piano Man)
