see a while ago I decided i actually DO think vox and angel have fucked at some point in their timeline, exactly once and at great psychological cost to them both. for one reason or another Vox finally agreed to the threesome Val has been begging for since the 70s, and obviously Angel was never going to be given a choice in the matter, so that's great. and the entire experience is just a catastrophic nightmare on every level imaginable. it sucks and NOT in a fun fucked up hot way. it's painfully awkward and difficult and a little bit traumatic but like, banally so. Every step of the process gets turned into a whole sisyphean ordeal. Vox needs to be heavily dosed on magical aphrodisiacs just to get in the game, and even then he is visibly cringing every time he remembers it's Angel that's touching him. Angel's stuck in a position where Val obviously wants him to Engage In The Sex and appeal to the fantasy, which he could totally do, except Vox wants him to stay still and shut up so they can get through this as quickly as possible, and either of them are liable to hurt him for fucking up. Val is trying so hard to make this work, getting Vox worked up and fully deploying his power as Hell's greatest porn director, but no amount of outside interference can save this situation. nobody has a good time and it makes the vox/angel dynamic immeasurably worse thereafter. the end.
