A/N: I have loads of things that I should be doing. Am I doing those things though? No. No I am not. Instead of getting work done, I am writing a fanfic. :D This one is another incorrect quote by the lovely @devil_in_westwood on instagram.
Pairings: Sebastian Moran x Jim Moriarty
Summary: Sebastian is taken by the Virgin and his Soldier. All that he can hope for is a swift death before Jim finds out that he’s gone.
“Sherlock: Where’s your owner.
Sebastian: I aint’ tell you SHI—wait what you call him?
Sherlock: *to john* After all the blows to the head he must be losing his hearing… Your OWNER, Colonel where is he?
Sebastian: Oh fuck you virgin, I heard what you said. But he’s my Boss not my owner.
John: Tell that to the GPS microchip in your neck.”
Warnings: Violence, possessive!Jim, dark!Jim, brief mentions of torture, brief mentions of water boarding, language,
Sebastian was going to catch a cold. He just knew it. He should’ve put on the jumper that Jim had been nagging him about. But he had wanted to be a brat and now he was paying for it.
The sniper didn’t actually think that Sherlock was going to waterboard him. He thought that it was an empty threat. The pale, lanky man looked like a swift breeze would blow him over, let alone be capable of torturing anyone. If anyone was going to draw blood, Sebastian had thought that it would be Johnny boy.
The dirty water was soaked into his clothes, clinging to his skin. His hair was damp. His gooseflesh had gooseflesh. A draft from an open window made him shiver. Sebastian hated that he knew his skin would be flushed red right now. The cut on his lip wasn’t helping his appearance either.
Suffice to say, Sebastian wouldn’t be winning any beauty pageants in the future.
“Where’s your owner?” That came from Sherlock. The man was in his signature overcoat, a scarf snuggly tied around his long neck.
“I ain’t telling you SHI—wait what did you call him?”
Sherlock turned to look at his soldier. “After all the blows to the head he must be losing his hearing…” His head turned on a swivel back to Sebastian. Blue-green eyes glared down. “Your OWNER, Colonel, where is he?”
Sebastian spat venom, “Oh fuck you virgin, I heard what you said. But he’s my boss, not my owner.”
John gripped Sebastian’s sandy hair in a vice. He tugged Sebastian’s head back, exposing his neck. “Tell that to the GPS microchip in your neck.”
Sebastian laughed at a punchline only he knew. It wasn’t the happy kind of laugh either. It came with thick mucus and sniffling snot. “Jim likes to keep track of his assets. I’m not a fucking dog, I’m a weapon he doesn’t like being misplaced.” Sebastian laughed again, his voice rough. “A dog would get better treatment.”
“Oh I bet you get treated just fine,” Sherlock said with a condescending tone. “You probably get to sleep at the foot of his bed if you behave, don’t you?”
Sebastian tensed up, wrenching his head out of John’s grip and glaring at the floor. His breaths were coming in heavy. “Fuck you. You know nothing about me.” Sebastian was going to break his hands to get out of his bindings if he had to. He really did not want to be here.
“But I do, Colonel Moran. Or…what was it Jim called you again? Panther? Lion…? Ah, something with patterns.” Sherlock held his chin as if deep in thought. He had a shit eating grin plastered on his face. “That’s right. Tiger.”
“Shut up!” Sebastian snarled. “You have no right to use that name.”
“Well if you prefer pussy cat, I can call you that too,” John added with a smirk of his own.
“Tiger’s a much better fitting name for him. You should see his lovely strips sometime…” Jim said in a singsong voice. “Then again, I’d have to kill you after. His strips are for my eyes only.” The gun pressed to John’s head was for theatrics, but the present audience didn’t know that.
They could all hear when the safety was off.
“Sherlock,” Jim sang. “You know better than to take away my toys. I wasn’t done playing with him just yet.”
“Kill John and I will stop at nothing to end you,” Sherlock threatened. Everyone present knew he meant it too.
“Take away my tiger again and we’ll see what I’m capable of. You’ve seen nothing, Sherlock. NOTHING.”
Sherlock seemed to debate the odds in his head for a second. All was quiet.
“Fine…Take him and leave. No one has to get hurt.”
“He’s bleeding, Sherlock. You’ve already broken my toy.”
Sherlock gestured to his own lips. “Do the same to me. Then we’re ev—”
Jim took the opening before Sherlock was even finished. Only Jim didn’t aim for the mouth like offered. He went for Sherlock’s nose. He felt his knuckles ache, knowing with certainty that he broke bone.
Sebastian couldn’t stop sneezing as he got off the elevator. He was definitely sick.Which made an already shitty day worse. Jim didn’t like anything to do with germs, let alone spend time with someone with the flu. He was going to make Sebastian sleep on the couch or have him stay at a shabby safe house with no heating.
Sebastian hugged his arms to conserve what little heat that he could. “Thanks for getting me, boss.” He coughed, the action causing more pain than it was worth. “Let me get some warmer clothes and then I’ll head out.”
“Where do you think you’re going?”
“To a safe house…? Cause I’m sick?”
Jim pressed his lips together into a straight line. He had never looked so visibly angry, “If you think I’m going to let you out of my sight then Sherlock must’ve hit you harder over the head than I thought.
“B-but I-I,” Sebastian stumbled at a loss for words. “But I’m sick?
“All the more reason for you to stay close to me. You can’t defend yourself in this state.” Jim pointed into the direction of the bathroom. “Go. I’m running you a bath.”
“Really?” Sebastian couldn’t keep the hopeful smile off his face.
“Don’t look so happy. The minions will accuse me of abusing my pets. Don’t make me change my mind.”
Sebastian never ran so fast.
