A Sunder x Reader snippet I'm working on. Inspired by @revelboo
I actually have a friend beta read, as I suck at keeping things consistent
I wasn’t supposed to be in this situation; I should have been promoted at that awful job. Then I was suddenly with aliens that didn’t even plan to take me. I arrived at a place with a chained-up bot, and I later discovered that someone had forced him to be small. His purring voice could make anyone give in, and I couldn’t resist. I refused to get close to him for a long while; he had weird things come out of his hands. I didn’t want them to touch me; something said it wasn’t going to be good if I let him.
Every time he spoke, I would get lost in it. I had to be careful after coming out dazed and being at the edge at that metal bed. He would always say it’s because he knows I wanna help him, do i wanna help him? He tells me used to be a doctor, how one mistake ruined it for him. How the others wont let him reform. He tells me I can help him, that if I help him, he can give me everything I can dream of. Says he can show me, I just need to get on the berth? Is that what it’s called; it looks more like a metal bed. That could be what it is. I don’t know if I want to get on it; something is telling me I shouldn’t.
This place gets cold in what I assume is the night cycle, the lights dim and I can hear the ship’s internal systems quiet for a while. “Why, little one, you are shivering. I can keep you warm.” The silky voice that just screamed trouble called out as I felt a fog come over me. I don’t know what happened, but I was suddenly tugging the chains to get up. When I came to a clearer mind, those things were inches away from me. In a panic, I almost fell backwards, but the large clang and a metal hand grabbed me. “I don’t need you to get hurt. You are my only company.” He pulled me close, he was so warm. “I can keep you warm; they are so cruel.” Who is cruel?
