Lestat really was paying an unhinged amount of attention to Louis because what do you mean you were listening to Daniel’s thoughts in case he started telepathically talking to Louis during the concert and then once exactly that happens you freeze the entire venue and fly in Louis’ face so he has to pay just as much single minded attention to you as you do to him?
one or two is not enough, a peck is never enough, his mouth is chasing, always chasing
sometimes you wonder if he even needs to breathe at all because the way he suctions himself to you feels ridiculous. sometimes you gently nudge him off, tutting that hes going to be late again
he mumbles right onto your mouth that he doesn’t care, maneuvering his tongue right back slotted into your lips. the room sounds are a filthy symphony; mouths smacking, his rough breathing, your squeaks and whimpers
he loves you like this, pliant under his hands, nirvana finds him here, pressing himself as close to you as he can, and if it were up to him hed crawl into your being entirely.
The Straw Hats, along with Camie, Hachi, and Papagg, stayed up well after dinner was through, drinking and trading stories. Although you were several drinks in, your tolerance was naturally higher than a human's. You were laid out in the grass on deck, laughing at something that Luffy had said. Nami questioned you about your bath, facetiously wondering if anyone had joined you. You feigned ignorance and said you didn't notice. Even Camie got a few laughs out of you. She really wasn't that bad, only a touch dense. As the hours dragged on, everyone gradually retired to bed. The only ones left were you, the nocturnal being, and Zoro, the insomniac.
"So... you think you're gonna stick around?"
"No, I'm not sticky. We took a bath, remember? Was it that forgettable?" You still hadn't quite gotten the hang of what things were meant literally and what were just expressions.
"That's not what I meant! I mean, do you think you'll stay with the crew?"
"Oh! Yeah... I think I like it here." You continued. "You know I could leave at any time. I don't need to wait for an island."
"Well... I guess. Just curious," Zoro mumbled.
"Aw would you miss me if I left?"
"No!" The faint pink on his cheeks betrayed him.
"You would."
"Shut up, woman! You're worse than the cook!"
You had a smug expression.
Zoro groaned and stood up. "I'm going to go keep watch." He headed towards the crow's nest.
"Do you want company?"
"NO!"
"You sure?" You unbuttoned one of the buttons on his shirt you were wearing.
"YES!"
"Did you ask Little Zoro?"
Zoro let out an exasperated growl and ignored you.
You laughed and headed to the room at the bottom of the ship with ocean access after grabbing your clothes. You had decided this would be your room. The ability to slip into the water if you wanted to made you feel more comfortable and less confined. You had added a hammock for now but wanted to add something cozier later. After all, you were interested in keeping this tryst with Zoro going and a hammock just won't do for that.
The next morning, Sabaody was in full view. Its giant trees were beautiful on their own, even more so with the cascade of bubbles flowing up from the ground. Their iridescence reminded you of your scales. When the ship approached, you were thoroughly entertained by Luffy playing in the bubbles. Part of the reason you were attracted to this crew was his strange magnetism. He was always so positive and free. The freedom you had as a roaming predator had a dark, pessimistic, energy about it, focused on survival. His freedom was different, lighter, more joyful, focused on living. You wanted to learn how to be more like him.
The ship docked at one of the tree islands and everyone decided what they were going to do. Finding the ship coater sounded sorta boring to you. You were still deciding what you wanted to do when Zoro started off on his own. You had given him his shirt back earlier. Sanji and Usopp heckled him about finding his way back and he seemed to have it figured out. Still, they turned to you and asked if you would tail him, if only to make sure he didn't find himself walking in circles for hours. You were happy to oblige. It was an excellent excuse to flit around in the trees. Flying across open ocean was boring. There were no obstacles. Dodging tree branches was much more fun.
In a burst of black feathers, you took to the air. Loosely following Zoro, staying far enough away that he didn't pay any attention to you. It wasn't a secret anyway. You zipped through the trees, swinging around branches and perching on a few to get a good look at the surroundings. That was part of your job as the crew scout, after all. A small ruckus caught your attention. You flitted closer to see what was going on. Landing on a nearby branch, you could see a large man with a pillar-like weapon fighting a smaller man with a helmet and blades. The relatively smaller guy was flipping around and was quite agile for his muscular build. The fight was interrupted by some ginger with an ugly hat. Shame. That little blondie caught your attention. He had a very appealing scent, not near as good as Zoro's, but it would make for a decent substitute. He must have sensed your presence because he looked up towards you. You were far away, but made no attempt to hide your bloodlust, so anyone with observation haki would pick it up fairly easily. You wondered if he was handsome under that mask. Either way, he was tasty. You blew him a kiss and promptly flew off towards your favorite snack.
When you located him, he was standing in front of some gratuitously hideous man with a fishbowl on his head. While you weren't sure what was going on, it appeared as if the swordsman interrupted something. The fishbowl guy pointed a gun at Zoro. A smug grin sat on your face. This would be good. Almost instantly, you could feel the bloodlust roll off Zoro. It was enough to make you swoon. He was just as bloodthirsty as you. You were simply more literal about it. You had never actually seen him fight for real. You watched with great interest as he made a move to cut the man in half, disappointed when a random pink-haired bystander tackled him. What the fuck did that bitch think she was doing?
Zoro was on the ground with a red puddle around him and the brat lay across him. You knew full well that he wasn't hit. You saw him dodge, and you didn't smell his blood. A weird feeling came over you, an impulse to throw that pink-haired woman off Zoro. A low growl left your throat. You didn't like seeing someone else that close to him, and his blood, even if it wasn't real. That was yours. You'd claimed it as such.
You hopped from the branches, flapping your wings once to slow your descent, otherwise hitting the ground with some force, glaring at the pink-haired one. She gave you a weird look and walked off. You swiped a finger across Zoro's forehead and licked it. As you thought, it wasn't his blood. He swatted at your hand as you went for another taste, just to make sure.
"What's going on here?"
"Dunno. We gotta get that guy to a doctor though." There was a man who had been shot.
"I think I saw one around."
Zoro picked up the man and you led him in the direction of the hospital you had seen from the air. It was a short walk. When Zoro brought the man in, the doctor seemed hesitant. The doctor said something about collars. Come to think of it, you did see collars on some people. You thought it was some kind of fashion. Apparently it was the mark of a slave. This was not a concept you were familiar with. Zoro had to explain it to you as you left.
"That seems wrong." Your eyebrows furrowed.
"It is."
"Why is it allowed then?"
"Because some people think they're above others."
"I'm superior to all life forms and you don't see me doing slavery." Sirens were the top of the food chain, or at least right up there with Sea Kings.
"It's not like that."
You didn't know what he meant though it seemed like it required a more in depth understanding of the human hierarchy to understand. You didn't want to bother him with more questions. Zoro wanted to head back to the ship. He was going the wrong way. You nudged him in a different direction as he walked, gently trying to herd him in the correct direction. He shoved you away from him.
"Would you get off me?! What are you doing?"
"You're going the wrong way."
"I am not."
He was. "Okaaaay. Lead the way then, big boy."
Your stomach growled as you stared at the back of his muscular neck. Were his traps juicier today? Saliva pooled in your mouth. You were so enticed by Zoro that you failed to notice the group of bounty hunters surrounding the two of you. Zoro wasn't phased in the least and asked for directions to Grove 1. That must have been why he was going the wrong way. He thought the ship was at Grove 1, not 41. The men all seemed fairly weak. At one point, they seemed like they may attack, which was fine with you. You were hungry. However, with one look from Zoro they all backed down. Funny, the same look had you wanting to pounce on him.
While one of them gave him directions, you picked one out that smelled the most appetizing out of the bunch. You beckoned him towards you. Your power wasn't needed. He willingly came to you. He was a little on the tall side and you couldn't reach his neck.
"Kneel." There was a dazed look in his eyes as he obeyed. You grabbed his hair and tilted his head to the side, opening your mouth to reveal lengthening, sharpening teeth. As you went to sink your teeth into him, you were pulled away.
"Don't." Zoro said sternly.
You whined. "I'm hungry."
He sighed. "I'll feed you. Don't waste your time on this junk food."
You released the man and were followed by the gazes of several frightened others as you followed Zoro away, looking very much like a dog who was promised a bone.
Zoro stopped after a while at the roots of one of the enormous mangroves. There weren't any people around and between the roots was somewhat secluded. The two of you tucked into the crevice of the roots for some privacy. Zoro didn't want to be seen, especially by any of the crew. He leaned against one of the roots to bring his height down enough for you to reach his neck, meaning you had to sort of straddle his leg to avoid being right on top of him. Zoro grunted as your canines made a small slit above his collar bone. You decided not to use his neck so he could cover the mark you left with his shirt if he wanted, and you were afraid if you used the vessels in his neck, you might take too much again. You were actually surprised he was up to be fed on so soon. His body must recover faster than normal.
"Hey. I was thinkin..."
You paused your drink to quip, "Easy. You might hurt yourself."
"Shaddup. Never mind then."
"No. No. Tell me," you murmured into his skin as you drank.
"What if... maybe we could do our own thing tonight." He said it as more of a question.
You looked at him from your position, prompting him to explain himself.
"You know..." Zoro begrudgingly elaborated, "Like me n' you could go to a bar or somethin."
You grinned as much as you could without spilling a drop.
He took your silence as an invitation to say more. "N' maybe we could split um... a room? M'kinda broke from owing Nami so much."
The slit on Zoro's collarbone was healed with one lick of your tongue. You stayed leaning against him. "Oh I see. You offer a meal and I have to repay you? With my body?"
"That's not it at all!" Zoro looked away. "Ugh sorry I asked."
"You misunderstand. I insist. I'll repay you." You leaned up to purr in his ear. "With my body."
Zoro's head snapped back to look at you. He blinked and his entire face and neck flushed. "If- if that's what you want."
You pressed a kiss to his throat. "Listen... I find you incredibly attractive, not just because of your blood, and I like this thing we have going on. I'd like very much for it to continue." You drew a nail over his chest and trailed it upwards to his chin. "When I first saw you, all I wanted to do was devour you, but I couldn't. Something about you has captured my attention. And I don't really care to find out what that is, but I would like to enjoy it... if that's alright with you."
He nodded slowly, bending down to capture your lips with his.
