Hi! I was wondering if you might do 86 for a lee!scanlan pretty please? I don't mind about the ler! Pike or Vax might be good but just do whatever you feel! Thank you I love him your honour
Absolutely loving reading all your summer prompt starter fics, you have a gift 🥹
Prompt 86 - “Crap. Wait. I didn’t mean that.”
A/N: I went with ler!Vax and lee!Scanlan and them being silly annoyances to each other, hope you enjoy! Hehe.
…
“You have a better chance of turning into a dragon than you do of making me laugh.” Scanlan rolled his eyes, stepping ahead of Vax on the road as they headed to meet their friends back at the tavern inn.
“Seriously, you gonna be all butthurt just because you’re not funny?”
“Really don’t think I can make you laugh?” Vax stared him down, then wiggled his fingers menacingly.
“Crap. Wait- wait! I didn’t mean that!” Scanlan yelped, realization dawning on him. “No! Get away! Shitshitshitshitshitshit!”
He sprinted into the inn and straight up the stairs to his room, ignoring his friends where they sat at a table enjoying fresh brews.
Panting as he slammed the door shut behind him, Scanlan shrank down against the door. “Crap. That’s not good.”
“You’re right it’s not.” Vax’s voice came out of the shadows as Scanlan only now noticed the open window to the room.
“No! Spare me!” Scanlan pleaded, sliding against the wall away from his partymate. “I-I take it back! You’re hilarious! Funniest guy I know!”
“How about we prove it, hm?” Vax snickered, lunging forward to grab for Scanlan’s side.
The gnome was quick, but not quick enough. Vax managed to grab hold of his ankle and drag him up upside down. “Fuck! Dohohohon’t!”
“Laughing already are we?”
“Fuck yohohohou!” He flailed, trying to conjure up a spell to get him out of here.
His hope was short lived as Vax pulled off one of his boots and plucked a feather from the wings he still had at his back. The damn, soft, black feather twirled easily between his toes as Vax tormented him with ease.
Scanlan pleaded, attempted to bribe and bargain, and shrieked his little heart out before Vax finally stopped, setting him back down on the floor of the inn room.
“So you take it back, right? You think I’m funny?” Vax sneered.
“Yes, yes, you’re hilarious- you fucking monster.” Scanlan waved a hand dismissively, panting for breath on the ground beneath him.
“Well, when you’ve calmed down, come get a beer with us, hm?” Vax suggested, sliding his way into the doorway. “Maybe I’ll tell you another joke.”
I did some sketch art to go along with my story "Bard's Song" on AO3! I couldn't decide exactly which bit I wanted to illustrate but then I remembered how perfect Vax's shit-eating grin is.
Was nervous to post art as I usually do stories but here we are! Hope le art is satisfactory to thine eyes!
