You, Reader, have made a deal with what you believed to be a fantasized version of your favorite YouTuber’s alter ego, Darkiplier after he’d visited you in a dream. You believed Darkiplier to only exist in your dreams and on Markiplier’s YouTube channel, but by some impossible way he’s real and he intends on collecting on your debt to him.
The darkness surrounds you and for a moment you believe you're in the void again. There's no sound or warmth you can sense. However, before you can move the darkness is over taken by a blinding light and the sounds of the ocean fill the air. Seagulls squawk over head as their shadows pass over you. Looking up you see a blue sky with scatterings of white clouds.
The sun feels good against your skin. You're in the bathing suit Anti had created for you during your Cabo get away. You look around, the beach is bare of anyone else but yourself and a long figure at the seat side down the beach. You don't move right away taking your time looking out at the sea. You missed Cabo.
Walking long the lapping water side you head down towards the lone figure. Even as you get closer to the figure it remains hidden in shadows. You know it's a he, and that you are very familiar with him. You don't have a name to put with with the man.
“Y/N,” he calls out, his voice a mix between Dark and Anti. You have a feeling it should be weird but you can't find fault with it. You smile at the dark figure and wrap your arms around his chest.
“I missed you.” You tell the figure looking up in the general spot of his eyes.
“I know.” he responds leaning down to capture your lips. You yield to his request, his tongue sliding into your mouth. You close your eyes as and feel one hand slid from your waist. His rough larger had slips over your bare skin until it cups your breast.
Playfully you pull away and push his hand away. “Naughty, naughty!” you sing with a big smile on your face. “You know better, this is a public space.” You see a smile cross the darkness as you twist away from him. “Come play in the water with me.” you say holding your hand out to him. He waits a moment before taking your hand. You lead him into the waves. The water is warm against your skin, the only chill being the wind blowing across your dampen skin. Before you can get too deep into the water he lifts you from the water and throws you nearly ten feet.
You can hear him rumble with laughter as you surface, spitting salty water out as you clear it away from your eyes and glare at him. “That's not fair! I can't throw you!” you shout. He continues to laugh, dark and crackly.
“You shouldn't have teased me, lass.” he tells you smiling at you. Green eyes glow in the darkness as it slowly fades and Anti's features slowly take shape from the black shadows.
You rest your hands on your hips and walk towards Anti. You laugh softly and stand before him, looking into his eyes. The green has subsided but your feeling of completely happiness remain the same.
“I love you, Y/N.” Anti tells you, his hand cupping your soaked cheek, brushing your hair behind your ear. You lean into his touch.
“I love you too, Anti.” you tell him meaning your words. You do. You love this green demon that's changed your life. Anti smiles at you, dipping his head to capture your lips. You return the kiss, letting Anti wrap his limps around you waist, pulling you completely flush against his body.
You quickly lose track of time and what is happening around you. All you can think of his Anti's kiss, the feeling of his hands roaming your damp skin with precision and it's driving you wild. He leaves your lips to pepper kisses down your neck to the hallow of your throat.
Your head rolls back, eyes closed, as you enjoy the feeling of his kisses—his touch intoxicating as you lose yourself in his touch. Soft moans leave your lips, his hands continuing to caress you. “Anti...” you whisper.
“Dove.” Your heart stops when you hear Dark's voice as hands continue to caress your sun kissed skin. Eyes snap open to see Dark standing behind you. You lock eyes with Dark, fear he'd be upset. It's only in that moment you realize that you have Anti peppering your skin with kisses, along your shoulders, the swell of your breast, his hands roaming free over you body.
“Dark.” you whisper, your eyes wide.
A gentle smile crosses his face as his hands frame your upside down face. Confusion hits you now. You feel him chuckle at your confusion before claiming your lips for his own. “Are you enjoying yourself?” Dark whispers against your lips. You can't lie to him; so, you nod your head unable to speak actual words.
“Such a naughty little lady.” Anti chuckles standing to his towering height over you. He too is smiling gently at you.
The punch to your mind feels so real you almost double over. It's like waking up from a dream and everything feels so real. You stare in complete and utter shock and confusion over what is happening. Had Anti hypnotized you? Is this all just a horrible game for the two? “What... Dark, Anti, what is happening?” you ask slipping from their grip putting distance between you and them. You look around the beach and notice there still isn't anyone despite the perfect weather and warm sun...
“Don't look at us like we hurt you. You were enjoyin' yerself.” Anti says smirking, daring you to deny him the truth.
“Why are you two doing this?” you ask, demanding an answer.
“This is what you want.” Dark tells you instantly appearing next to you. You look up at him, tears threatening to spill over.
“What I want?” you ask him even more confused. You believe in monogamous relationships, but there is this feeling in your chest, as if you're being torn between two paths and neither feel right to walk alone...
“Y/N, tell us what you want.” Anti says with the most serious expression you've seen on his face. You open your mouth to say...
You pause, what do you want? You want Dark, you've loved him for such a long time now and you're happy with him; even if the relationships is not perfect, you are still happy and you know Dark loves you. However, you are finding it harder and harder to deny that you feel anything on the same level for Anti. The relationship with Anti has changed so drastically and you're getting to know him little by little...and... and...
You feel his lips pressed against yours again, a phantom feeling as you look at him. He's always been attractive but that doesn't mean you'd actively try to flirt and seek his attention. Not with Dark close by and taking the title of your beau.
“I don't know what I want.” you tell him honestly. You feel like your heart and your head are warring with each other. You mind tells you that you have to keep with Dark, but your heart is telling you that it has enough room for both.
“It is okay to be unsure.” Dark tells you, taking you attention away from Anti.
“Not is not! It's not fair, it's not okay. I love you, Dark and if I love you then why do I... Why do I love Anti in the same way? Why...I can't hurt either of you...” You find yourself shouting to keep yourself from crying. This isn't how you thought your love life could turn to be. You want one love, one person to spend your life with...but you have two...two different people you want in your life.
“It's okay. Not everyone is meant to share their love with just one person.” Dark says calmly. You can tell he's trying to do his best to comfort you.
“But how? What if these feelings change? What if neither of you can take this kind of...” Dark presses a finger to your lips.
“We have come to...an agreement of sorts, Dove.” Dark promises you.
“If it's what you want, we'll be nice.” Anti adds.
“We understand that this is confusing and uncomfortable for you, but know that we will not rush you into any decision. We are bound together, Dove. We only wish you to be as happy as you make us.” Dark says in ernest. You'd rarely heard him speak so freely, so openly and it feeling amazing. Even with Anti as witness.
Before you can respond to him the sky seems to explode above you. Your gaze jerks to the watch bright orbs of light fall from the darkness. They glitter and sparkle as they fall like rain drops down never quite reaching you. You're transfixed by the sight and everything slowly fades away.
“Just think about it..” you hear Anti plead before you're swept away.
Why did they have to do this to you? No, that’s not right. They aren’t doing anything wrong. They’re being honest and up front about what is going on. You can’t really control who you find attraction to any more than Anti or Dark.
It just feels so out of the blue and so far from left field it makes your head spin. Closing your eyes you see the sparkling orbs once again. Green and red and silver glitter as you try to analyze your own heart. You somehow feel like you can love them both...but...but being practical...can you really love them both?
Eyes rise at the feeling of lithe hands trying to through his hair without disturbing him, a few pieces being tugged into place. Cole was always toying with something, out of sheer curiosity or mischief was the tricky part to figure out. “Cole, what are you doing?”
But he doesn’t get an answer, the blond disappearing as quickly as he came. When he goes to the bathroom, there’s a small blue ribbon in his hair.
What's the point of all these "pretty sparkles" pics that you reblog? They're not helpful tips for mentalists or magicians.
Well… they’re pretty, aren’t they? Beautiful images inspire a mystical sort of feeling. I like to think that every now and again, magicians don’t just want to read articles and watch videos of how to perform tricks. I like to think that they occasionally want to be inspired by dreamy lights and shining color combos. (Also, it’s kinda hard to find good material to post about, so I need filler posts.)
