Mouthy at a Meeting
Kinktober - 1st Post - Roman Sionis - Oral
Note: Takes place after Chapter 2a of Creative Fervor but before Chapter 3. Also all sexiness is under the cut if you don’t want to read any of it.
Warning: Oral M Receiving…Deep throating, Praise!Kink, Daddy!Kink, Dommy Roman, Semi Pubic.
“Stop! No!” You struggled. “I can walk.”
Roman didn’t relent. His could feel his anger grasping, clawing at his throat. If he didn’t care for you so fucking much, he’d take you to the docks right fucking now.
He tightened his arm around you as he walked, half carried you to car. Once close to it, he grabbed the door handle and practically tore open the door. He stopped beside the door. “Don’t make me throw you in.”
You twisted and huffed, narrowing your eyes at Roman. He was tempted to push you in as you straightened your dress, but he enjoyed the view as you climbed into the back seat. The driver came around, his face dropped seeing he was too late.
“Just drive around Gotham for an hour, no stops.” His stomach tightened. He knew exactly how he would punish you for how you acted this morning. The idea alone began to arouse him. “Only then return to the penthouse.” He continued. “But just park the rolls. You can head on in. We will at our own time.”
“Everything alright sir?”
“Women drive one crazy.”
“That’s why I am still single.”
Roman, didn’t need the commentary. He sighed. “Well, that’s why I was for so long.”
The man shrugged.
Roman reached into his pocket and took out his phone.
ToZsasz: Clean up Jarod’s at 5th & 11th.
Zsasz: Thought he was a new ally.
ToZsasz: Nah. Was a spoiled brat. Ask his men if they want a new boss. If not clean them up too.
Zsasz: Alright Boss.
He turned off his phone and slipped it back into pocket. Inhaling he finally climbed in after you.
“Roman…I…”
He held up his hand, he was glad you knew to actually not push things further. He lift the arm rest, he eyed the buttons. He pushed the one for the partition.
The engine started and wheels began to roll as the partition went up.
He turned to you once it was up. “What the fuck is wrong with you?”
“He is a belittling little prick.”
“I don’t bring you to my meeting, to fight my battles.”
“I couldn’t sit there and just let him be a prick.”
He had to admit, he never thought you’d be like that and for him. Sure you two were exploring what it was like to be together but this? He liked it but didn’t want it.
“I can’t, nor do I want my girl fighting my battles. I had eliminate them.”
“What?” Your eyes grew.
He nodded. “Word can not circle what just went down.”
Your face fell.
He smirked and reaching over, he grabbed your chin, turning so you would look at him. A pang went through him despite his anger at how upset you looked. With how much, you loved him he had to remember you were not like anyone he usually was around.
“As much as I am angry at what you did. It gave me excuse to end and not have to sit through the entire meeting.” He smirked. “I was going to kill him anyway. I didn’t want that prick hanging around my crew or club.”
You beamed. “See I just knew.” You gave him a weak smile, as he let go of you chin.
“You need to be punished for what you did back there.”
“Huh, what? I was defending you.”
“Are you questioning me now?”
“Well, no well yes. Ok, I am.”
“You have to learn, if I let you sit with me at a meeting. You don’t react to them. If you feel the need to say something, perhaps later over drinks or something but not in front of the person. You are supposed to sit there and be my pretty girl.”
Your mouth opened and closed but you didn’t say anything. “You don’t want me to say anything when it comes to your business,” He shrugged. “So we’re even.”
“Oh ok. I get it.” You slid him a look. “I’m sorry.”
“I believe you but ready for your punishment baby?” His tone finally softening.
“Yes. I want you to know I’m sorry I overstepped. I should have trusted you to handle it all.”
“Exactly baby.”
Day 0: The Big Fall.
No one really knows what happened.
It’s as if the entire collective memory of Póli’s population was erased overnight. But even stranger, the city itself was in a state of disrepair and the plain that once displayed Póli like a shining jewel seemed to have sunk one-hundred or more feet from the surrounding landscape. Foundations crumbled, buildings tilted and collapsed, snow covered the streets; Our once-pristine metropolis sat in near-ruins as if uninhabited for decades.
The residents slowly spilled out of their dwellings, breaking third floor windows and scrambling down house-sized snow-mounds. They gathered in what was left of the city’s main square, gazing at their surroundings in utter confusion.
Just as the residents seemed physically unaffected, (apart from the total lack of memory) the heads of state all eventually emerged as well, a similar look of despair and concern proved they too were in the dark.
The morning passed with little news, but as noon approached an alarm sounded and Mayor Portis emerged on a balcony above the plaza. His message was simple...
Our civilization was attacked. By what or whom; for what purpose and to what extent, he didn’t know. There was no response from any other community, town or outpost. The city, perhaps the federation itself, had fallen, seemingly overnight, without resistance, or even awareness, but they would find answers.
A survey would be conducted. It will leave Póli tomorrow.
First off,
THIS ⬇️ and everything about it...
Is My FAVE!!! 💛💛💛
And that’s it.
Stay tuned for the next post...
Victoria and John, a contract (part one)
I’m pretty much convinced that not only is John Brown not human (demon or angel would be my best guess), but he has made a contract with Queen Victoria.
We’ve talked about the Albert hand puppet quite a bit, and I truly do believe it serves the same purpose as what Sebastian offered to our earl in ch138 — make the contractor feel as though a dead loved-one has returned.
Our earl didn’t fall for such an offer, but I think Victoria found it all too tempting to pass up. Sure, she still dresses in the black of mourning, talks about Albert in past-tense, and then breaks down crying. However, as soon as the puppet appears, she genuinely behaves as though she thinks Albert is there with her.
This is not simply a puppet; it’s a mind control device, a powerful tool to manipulate her feelings, thoughts, and actions. Sometimes John even uses that deadpan Albert voice to give her ideas and plans of action... not just words of encouragement... as if they are coming from Albert himself. We could simply see it as a parody of real life, since Queen Victoria claimed John Brown was a medium who allowed her to communicate with her dead husband, but I think it’s something way more sinister in the Kuroverse.
However, ch21 shows us, right off the bat, that whatever charm/power John has over her with the puppet, it’s not perfect. As I pointed out above, sometimes she realizes Albert is dead and gone. Historically, Victoria stopped making such frequent public appearances after Albert’s death because of her deep mourning. Here, it’s because John/“Albert” suggests she stay home and out of the public’s eye. John realizes her behavior when she’s upset about Albert, as well as her reaction to the puppet, must take a toll on her reputation. If this says anything about the rest of the contract terms, it’s a poorly-made contract.
But, what else would be in the contract, and what might have been left out? I want to look at the wishes and terms spelled out in ch138 for a possible framework, since a contract between John and Victoria would likely parallel the contract between Sebastian and our earl.
I don’t think it’s simply for Albert’s “return”, since there should be some finiteness to fulfilling the contract. Perhaps it’s to make her think Albert has returned for the remainder of her natural lifespan, and then — upon her deathbed — John gets his “payment”, whether it be her soul or something else. Or it could be until she has achieved some other goal. Or John didn’t make it clear the contract had to have a distinct end and couldn’t be extended.... More on that later.
If there is another wish for John to fulfill? That’s a bit harder to guess. Some specified level of power and influence? Some achievement for the legacy she leaves behind? Revenge against some foe (real or imagined)? 🤷🏻♀️ Ch138 might actually give us clues to Victoria’s desires, and not just the one about Albert.
Victoria had been queen since she was 18, she married her beloved around the same time, and she lives in luxury. But her reign saw the new expansion into foreign lands, the wealth raked in by controlling serval industries abroad, and the exotic goods and other treasures that this brought to her and to the British markets... for those who could afford them. Ch21 might essentially confirm this, since John (while being stepped on by the horse) starts listing off her achievements since she’s been queen. The increased power and reach of the nation, her influences on fashion and popular culture, etc. Maybe we should be getting the idea that these grand merits, like creating the “empire where the sun never sets”, are actually achievements made possible only because of John, just like our earl’s successes are largely due to Sebastian’s abilities. It does read similar to ch2’s initial assessment of our earl’s business successes. It also makes sense when paired with Undertaker saying he doesn’t like her, won’t accept “the queen’s coin”, and complains how she sits in comfort and safety while others do her dirty work. Maybe all of her accomplishments are not her own.... More on that later, too! 😏
Some guesses for what might have been included... and left out... of the terms. Let’s go with three wishes, just like our earl was offered. Looking at ch138, we see this about our earl’s first wish:
Wish 1. Speaking the truth.
John must be able to lie to her, simply because she might not have been thinking clearly enough at the time to demand otherwise. Sebastian acted like our earl’s demand to always speak the truth is somewhat of a novelty; he was taken by surprise. We know John can lie to her because he does so every time he says Albert is there with her. That entire wish about Albert is fulfilled by lies.
Wish 2. Obeying orders.
Sebastian is being particularly sneaky here to put an extra condition on the terms... after the terms had been agreed upon. This gives him the ability to not follow every order he is given, unless “I command you” is stated. And to accomplish assigned tasks without following very specified ways of doing so. That’s how he was able to “interrogate” Beast for information about the signet ring... instead of going to the two places our earl told him to go. And he was able to say he completed the task, without admitting he never went there... and without lying, because of how he got our earl to rephrase his questions.
John likely has to pretend he’s a normal human, but also like Sebastian, he’s going to pull off some weird shit that’s definitely not normal for humans... and witnesses will just have to remain willingly ignorant to the oddities... much like Finny realizing he had brought Sebastian iris bulbs, not plants full-grown and in bloom.
Sebastian also makes it clear there need to be limits to the contract terms; there cannot be extensions or alterations to the contract terms by way of orders.
How about with Victoria and John? It seems to me that John must have a lot of leeway, when it comes to obeying orders — how he accomplishes them... if he really obeys at all. He might even be able to obey orders in a way that doesn’t always achieve the queen’s desired results... if he doesn’t want to. It’s difficult to see how this part of the contract works (or fails), since we don’t see much of what they say and do.
What we do see, however, is Victoria making hints about what she wants... and sometimes we see John taking note of it. It makes me feel as though the terms could be as vague as “fulfill my desires” or “make my wishes come true”. If so, we run into the issue of contract limitations again. Where does that end? John really might have accidentally made an open-ended contract....
Sebastian is smart to state that he will not accept orders to give more wishes, extend the contract, or make further changes to the terms. Yes, he is trying to take advantage of the kid, but the kid is also hoping to take advantage of the demon. Each one wants as much as they can get from the contract, just like Sebastian says is to be expected. Which brings us to the third wish.
Wish 3. Protection and no betrayal.
Sebastian threw in the “no betrayal” part as a freebie, since it’s a personal policy of his to not make multiple contracts. He specifies this is a fourth wish that he’s allowing only because it’s an automatic, to him. Our earl set aside the offer to be kept safe from illness; he didn’t think the asthma would return. Besides... imagine how this story would have gone if our earl was stuck inside Sebastian’s body? Very differently, indeed. Entirely different.
I see a setup here for John to be one of those greedy, gluttonous sorts. Charles Grey would be in awe? 😆 I have no idea what sorts of protections John might have offered Victoria, or what she might have agreed to. However, I suspect that 1) the terms might be changeable, so we could later see John do weird things to protect her and 2) John might have another contract with someone else, so betrayal is quite possible. I’d even say it’s likely. With the terms of the contract as loose as I suspect, John could be like Ash/Angela without even changing names, appearances, or personalities.
TL/DR: If John Brown is a demon or angel in a contract with Victoria:
One goal or wish is to make her think Albert has returned.
Other goals seem to be about her achievements and influence as queen. (However, it might even include the crown itself and her marriage.)
He can lie to her, since he lies every time he says Albert is there.
He has to make her wishes come true, but he has a lot of wiggle room on how to accomplish that. And the wishes might not be properly limited.
He probably has to protect her as she achieves whatever goals she has set.
However, he might betray her. Particularly if he’s stuck in a contract that has no well-defined end (other than her natural death).
It’s pretty wild to think about, but it’s entirely possible that Queen Victoria (in the Kuroverse) is a fraud of some kind. What if she made the contract when she was young... and the crown, her beloved husband, her life of luxury... are all just wishes being granted for her? Considering that:
Her birth year is around the time Undertaker rebels and tries to destroy the reaper organization’s HQ... ohh? 🤔
She ascends to the throne the year that Molly G. dies. Her coronation takes place the following year. Hmm. 🧐
And she was, historically, quite attracted to Albert and pursud him to be her husband. As queen, she had to propose to him. Sure, his feelings were mutual IRL, but... maybe not in the Kuroverse? Uh. 🤨
More to come later!
