Sometimes I remember that in the anthology fyodor missed his people enough to make little puppets of them to play with while in prison (no one can tell me otherwise) 🥰
"Perhaps I will be able to let it go if you consider agreeing you two have proved my point: you are not able to control yourself without me."
"Well, you didn't exactly say that was the test," Nikolai nitpicked it.
"So, hypothetically speaking, if we did make a deal, you would not have done it?" Fyodor asked, arguing back.
"You know I always get the bet, or at least get away with it," Nikolai smiled his way. "It's not on me you two can't figure out my way of cheating before I get my reward."
"Alright, I will set the proper test then," Fyodor said and leaned his head onto his open palm. "I bet you two could not last a week without fucking with each other or losing your mind. If you do, I will let you command me for a whole day, and if you don't, as a punishment, I will be commanding you both for a night."
OR:
Plot related chapter in which Fyodor and Nikolai involve Sigma in a mission for once; it takes a turn of Fyolai agruing about who Sigma likes more, which bleeds into Siglai semi-public sex and them taking the bet Fyodor had proposed, unaware that they will end up in a rather unfortunate situation (locked in chastity cages)
Art of their mission outfits made by me even if I found outfits on Pinterest and I don't know how to draw faces so they look uncany, but let me be, I'm still learning lmao. It would be a shame for it to just sit in my gallery.
I yapp about every chapter, so why not about this one too?
I can't believe this fic is doing this well. It's on 94k words now, which is quite a lot, and it has around 750 kudos, which is also A LOT. I gotta thank you all because I never expected this much support for the idea I got one sunny afternoon on a random Thursday. And to think it's a rare-pair, a poly ship even? Thank you so much omg.
Anyway, I can't wait to release Fyodor's chapter on a cruise, because he definetly will enjoy that time, in a rather unexpected way with rather unexpected someone. But that's for another time.
About the mission
Honestly, this chapter was written from Sigma's perspective because I can't stand mission details and all that practical stuff. Sigma doesn't need to know it all, so I don't have to explain if it's from his POV lmao. Basically, the whole thing is that they need to find a guy and kill the guy, which we made up. We could go with Ace, but then that would mean I need to look over his character, and I didn't feel like doing so. it wouldn't fit the plot. But enough about that, there are many other things to talk about.
"Is this purely sexual to you?" Fyodor raised his eyebrows.
...
"But you still said you 'might as well find someone since I won't decide.' I'm not deciding regardless, but what you apparently said doesn't go with what I heard," Sigma mumbled back.
"Don't we all say things in the heat of the moment?" Nikolai raised his voice, "It was meant to make you forced to choose, God damn it."
Even if it doesn't seem that way right now, Fyodor and Nikolai are in the state of minor miscommunication that will lead to some problems later. Nikolai's devoted to their dynamic, yet is speaking as if opposite in front of Fyodor, which will have some effect on the story later. God, I can't with that.
But yeah, it's basically written all over the last chapters that Nikolai doesn't want any more meaningless hookups with any more meaningless people since he has Sigma and Fyodor at all times. But, the turn of events is always leading to him telling Sigma this, yet not Fyodor.
Perhaps the reason is because he knows Sigma's in for commitment, and Fyodor isn't, or rather he thinks he isn't. God knows what Fyodor's thoughts actually are. He's the kind to be devoted out of practice, but emotinally? That's a bit more complicated.
"I'd rather lose both than just one of you." ... "I wouldn't. The same goes the other way, though; I wouldn't crawl to Fyodor either if you were to leave."
I love, so dearly love Sigma's dedication to them both. He got so used to them all being together that he can't even imagine one of them not being around. People would think Sigma would settle for one, but he's so not the type. He'd rather not feel like home (lose both), then fell like something (one of them) is missing.
"You two could figure it out without me too. And Fyodor and I could figure it out without you. As much as that's hard to hear, it's the truth. Just that, if any of us separated into two, no one would be completely satisfied."
Because, let's be real, if one of them were to leave, both Sigma and another would be broken to pieces, even if they wouldn't want to admit it. It would fuck them up. The three are just a trouple that would never work sepertely in the long run.
Sigma's the only one aware of that, or the only one that 100% understands how their dynamic works.
"Damn, I'll get head?" Nikolai laughed but whined a moment after, perhaps because Fyodor moved away.
"Nope," Fyodor popped his 'p', "You will, however, fall for the same trick once again."
If Sigma had to describe what he heard next, he'd just say it was absolute horror. After a metallic click of some kind of a mechanism, Nikolai started cussing out everything that could be cussed out.
My God, how I love this side of Nikolai. He can endure so much but he fears a cock cage like nothing else. Really, the only punishment that's actually a punishment from which he doesn't get pleasure is a cock cage. Even edging brings some satisfaction, so he can deal with that. But cock age? Hell no.
Sigma, on the other hand, just heard about it, so he doesn't fear them out of experience; he just knows it's awful because Nikolai told him so. He'd rather go blind into it, but oh well, he can't do anything about it now, can he?
Sigma can swear the only reason why he's a drama queen about it is because it restricts the possibility of fucking something or someone. If they were left alone without these on, surely Nikolai would survive without sex. With them on, however, the possibility of doing so was zero, which made Nikolai want it more.
And Sigma's damn right. Even in smut fics, Nikolai wants and longs from freedom, in one way or another. It's not about it restricting him from sex physically, but emotionally.
Some people say that, when they are starting their journey of stopping smoking, it's way more effective for them to have a pack than not to have one at all times. That way, they are actively choosing not to smoke, instead of being forbidden physically, which somehow makes it easier and makes them feel like they are in control.
I think the same applies to Nikolai and cock cages. With it on, he can't do anything, which makes him want to at least be able to do something, not exactly do it. With it off, he can do whatever he wants since there is no literal reminder that he's to keep it in his pants at all times; therefore is more likely to control himself.
So yeah, that would be all, I think? There's probably more that I can say, but I'll leave it at this!
