Morning Coffee And Sweet Surprises (Closed to Poprockz)

[Poprockz]

Sayori had no idea the true relationship between Quinton, Cora and Kuznet, so she assumed the last part of his sentence was just a generality. He was sorry that all of this was happening to her, to them. Sorry he couldn't do anything to free her.

She shook her head, "don't be sorry. You were touching me because you had to, to protect someone you loved. If you hadn't, then all of us would probably have been punished anyway. And... it's okay. You've done a lot for me since I came here, more than most would have for a girl they had never met. You have a good heart, Quint. Don't ever lose that."

The girl was quiet for a moment before asking, "was that your sister? She was like you, but like a woman version. The man near her... I know him. That's why the General decided to keep me here."

--------------------------------------

Sabastian made sure to stay a little ways away from Vin as he smoked. While it wasn't a fire, a cigarette might possibly light him up as well. He couldn't sense people the way he could zombies, but he tried smelling with his nose, closing his eyes.

"No, I can't make out anyone other than us, but I could be wrong. If there are people nearby, then they're definitely not wearing any strong scents." The blonde shrugged, then started walking away into the woods, his ass unintentionally swaying a little bit as though to invite Vin to follow him further away.

Damien recognized why Vin was asking and was secretly glad he had. It was definitely better to know if there was someone lingering about. It was entirely possible that there were soldiers around even if Sabastian couldn't smell them. The soap they used was made for the express purpose of making them difficult to smell, so he wouldn't be surprised if there was an operative always keeping an eye on them.

However, when the answer was no, he relaxed a bit, turning to Cora and smiling. Walking over to her, he slid his hand from the small of her back to her hip, pulling her beside him as he leaned over. "Do you have a bathing suit, or are you going to be swimming as nature intended?" He nipped her ear gently before leading her away toward the water.

 

[Drobabes]

Quint hadn't been told the relationship between Damien and Cora, and until now, he hadn't seen any pictures of them being close. As Sayori talked, however, he tried to remember the photo a bit better. At the moment, he hadn't taken much in because he didn't want to take his eyes off Kuznet, but now that they were alone, he remembered the hand on her hip and the relaxed smile she had on her face.

"Yea, that was my sister C-Cora."

God, how long did it take this frosty shit to wear off?

"Was he your ex or s-something? I think t-that's, nng, that's the happiest I've seen her in years."

He knew Kuznet wouldn't like that. He hadn't even liked it when Cora had female friends while they were growing up, but he had tolerated it for the show. Whoever they were, he felt bad for them. Unless Quint could get out of here, then that guy was in for a real bad time.
______

He hurried his smoking along, then put the cherry out carefully on a rock so that he didn't crush and waste the rest of the cigarette. Once it was out, he put it away and then grabbed a couple pine needles off of a tree that he recognized and started chewing on them as he followed Sabastian into the woods. The pine needles didn't taste the best, but they were safe and a good breathe freshener.

He caught up to him quickly, then wrapped his arms around his shoulder again, looking down at him with a grin. After that, he walked with him to a point where they could still see the lake through the trees but where they could still get destructive. Once there, he let his arm down and then looked down into those beautiful eyes.

"So... Did you want to continue that conversation we were having on the couch?"

There was no one here to interrupt them now, and Vin felt as if he wouldn't be able to focus as well until he knew what Sabastian had been trying to say.
______

Cora shivered at that little nip, reaching over to playfully smack him on the chest.

"I have a...well, I have shorts.."

She twirled some hair around her finger as they walked. She hadn't really had time to grab a bathing suit. Still, it was so hot she would have been happy to swim in a sweatshirt if that's all she had.

 

[Poprockz]

"No." Sayori answered quietly. She was debating on whether she should tell Quint or not. Kuznet would probably be very pleased with how upset it might make him, so she was hesitant. More than that, she didn't want to hurt him or cause him to worry. The fact of the matter though was that his sister was with the very man who had kidnapped her and fucked her several times before releasing her.

What if what the General said was true though? What if Damien had become more dangerous since their three days together? If that was the case, then Cora was in danger. Granted, Kuznet was a danger to her too, but he had insinuated that Damien was the cause of an entire base falling and an untold amount of deaths as a result.

For now she remained silent, a conflicted look on her face as she tried to decide whether to tell him or not.

------------------------------------------------------

He enjoyed the way Vin put his arm around him, and he almost felt like a legitimate couple. It was nice to pretend at least. The more he had thought about what he was going to say to Vin, the more uncertain he had become until at this point, he wasn't sure he wanted to bring it up to the big man.

That was why when Vin grinned at him and suggested they continue the conversation, that his eyes widened and his heart started beating quickly. The fear of rejection was strong, and he couldn't help but want to avoid it. What if everything went wrong? What if Vin laughed and shrugged it off? His face looked a bit nervous for a moment before he shook his head.

"What? Um no, I think we should wait for a better time." He looked away from Vin and tried to busy himself by looking for a rock or something to pick up.

"We should um, look for rocks and stuff." If he just put it off and acted normal, everything would be okay. Things would continue on as they had- a nice, comfortable normal.

--------------------------------------------------

"Just shorts, hm?" He imagined Cora in a pair of short shorts, her beautiful breasts out in the open as she glistened with water. Her hair would be wet and dripping, her soft skin cool and wet from the lake. Damien's lips curled up and he smirked down at her.

"That sounds very nice." His hand traveled up her side, his long fingers rubbing just under one of her breasts to tease her.

Although come to think of it, if she swam topless, then Vin might see her. He wasn't worried about Sabastian, being pretty sure he was exclusive to men, and he knew Vin was really into Sabastian. Still, the thought of Vin getting a peek at her made him a bit annoyed.

"If Vin comes around, I'll have to chase him off though. Even he is with our little blonde, I'd hate for him to see you topless. He might fall in love and then I'd really have to beat him away with a stick."

 

[Drobabes]

It was slow going, but Quint finally felt like his body was warming up a bit. At least from his chest outward-his actual arms still felt like they were going to fall off. At least his teeth had stopped chattering, though.

He heard the soft "no" and it made him curious. If the man wasn't an ex, and they weren't on good terms, then what was the significance? The fact that the man had dared to touch Cora at all was enough to earn him a bullet likely, but Quint still didn't understand why he had used Sayori to send a message instead of just his usual shitty little Blue's Clues games.

"You ok?" he finally asked, not sure why she had gone quiet. In hindsight it might have been a bit of a stupid question, but, well, too late now.
______

Delvin frowned a little, seeing the look on his face followed up with that awkward push to drop it. He was usually a patient man, but right now he didn't want to be patient. He didn't want to wait for a better time because there might not be a better time.

"Sabastian, what if I don't want to wait for a better time? And what if, I really need to know?"

He didn't want to make him feel cornered but found himself backing Sabastian up against a tree anyway; his hand reaching up to stroke his face.

"I don't feel normal when I'm around you..." he says quietly.

"It kind of scares me, if I'm being honest. I've never felt such a pull towards someone before."

His brown soft brown eyes roamed the finer details of his face. Those soft pink lips, those pale cheeks that painted themselves so beautifully when he blushed, and those eyes. He lingered there a moment, first taking in that soft sky blue, and then that amethyst purple.
______

A blush started forming on her cheeks, but she didn't try to pull away, that small touch to her chest sending a spark of desire right down to her core.

"That's not what I meant and you know it, dork."

The lake was coming into view now, it's beautiful placid water making her want to run up to the dock and just right in.

"He might fall in love and then I'd really have to beat him away with a stick."

She grinned, finding the mental image of Damien actually running after Vin with a huge club like some kind of caveman to be very amusing.

"Pfft. I don't think that's what would happen. I imagine he would get very embarrassed and do a one eighty and walk away. He seems way too honorable; I just can't picture it."

Her head leaned against his chest then, her own fingers going down to the lining of his pants so she could slip her thumb inside and tease him back a little bit.

"Besides, he looks at Sabastian in the same way that I catch you staring at me. He's so smitten with our little angry pirate, I even bet you one day he'll put aside that itch to travel just to stay with him."

 

[Poprockz]

Sayori started to nibble on her fingernail anxiously.

"Quint... if you were completely helpless to change something, would you still want to know about it? Even if it was unpleasant?" She knew the very question raised suspicion, but he couldn't make her tell him if the answer was no.

---------------------------------------------

"Sabastian, what if I don't want to wait for a better time? And what if, I really need to know?"

He froze, having been reaching for what looked like a decent-sized rock before he straightened up. Turning, he had been about to reply when he found Vin coming toward him with a serious expression. Sabastian tried to back up from him, but found his back against a tree soon enough with Vin leaning forward, that large hand tenderly petting his now-flushed cheek. He wanted to melt against his touch, feel those lips upon his, and forget the world, but Vin wanted an answer from him and didn't seem to have the patience to put it off.

"I don't feel normal when I'm around you... It kind of scares me, if I'm being honest. I've never felt such a pull towards someone before."

Sabastian blinked in surprise, wondering if Vin was trying to say he had feelings for him. It seemed too good to be true, and he didn't know what to do about that information. The little man took a breath and started, hoping that he was saying the right things.

"Me too... every minute that I spend with you, I keep falling deeper into a place I've never been before. I'm afraid of letting myself go, of losing the friendship we have, of committing to something that I may have to back out of later for your safety. You're... important to me. I know I shouldn't pursue anything more with you, but my feelings keep bugging the shit out of me to try. " Sabastian hugged his arms, looking at a nearby tree with a pained expression. "As dorky as it sounds, I'm falling for you Vin."

He continued, still unable to meet Vin's eyes as he spoke. It felt like if he had to look at him, he might lose his nerve once more. "You're so cool and you seem like the kind of guy who so easily moves from place to place, making friends and sharing beds without committing to anything. A-and that's not a bad thing, and it's not like all of them probably wanted to be more, but it makes me worried that my feelings for you might tie you down when you really just want to be free."

He finally turned his head and looked up into Vin's eyes, vulnerable and heartfelt, "but I don't think I can bring myself to touch you, kiss you, or do anything like that with you anymore if you don't want more of me, because it'll hurt me if it continues like this." Sabastian's eyes fogged up a bit as his emotions welled up in him. He was really baring his heart to Vin, knowing that he couldn't take any of it back now.

----------------------------------------

"No? Damn... I was looking forward to it," he chuckled, enjoying the color in her cheeks.

The mention of Vin simply turning around, embarrassed as hell was not something he could readily imagine. Vin was such a confident man, he just couldn't see a rosy blush on his cheeks as he basically turned tail and ran away from the topless bombshell he had leaning against himself currently.

"Hm..." he simply made a noise of acknowledgement, glancing down as she rested her head on his chest. He smiled, thinking in that moment how lucky he was to have her. Not a second later, he felt that teasing intrusion into his pants and he felt his cock stir slightly. Oh how nice it would be to have her naked in the grass as they had a little bit of fun. She probably wouldn't be amenable to that with Vin and Sabastian so close, but it was a nice thought.

"You think so? I'm not sure Vin could possibly have as much affection as I do for you. There's just no comparison. Buuuut, I do agree that he seems to really adore the little marshmallow."

 

[Drobabes]

"...if you were completely helpless to change something..."

He was quiet for a moment, thinking. No one was ever completely helpless. Infact, the very idea of it made him reject it so strongly that it brought a scowl to his face. Kuznet had tried for years, years, to make them feel like they were helpless to stop things from happening and only giving them a sick sense of control over an outcome if he had already planned it well ahead of time.

"Sayori... My life has been filled with very unpleasant things and I'm not dead yet. What's wrong sweety?"
______

"As dorky as it sounds, I'm falling for you Vin."

He had to move his hand from Sabastians face and put it up on the tree so that he wouldn't feel how it had started to shake. Those were the words that he had been praying he would say, and yet, once he had said them, Delvin felt a hard knock of fear hammer through his chest. At first, he didn't understand why. Why should he feel afraid for having gotten the answer that he had wanted? And then, Sabastian answered his question for him.

As Sabastian continued to bear his heart out on his sleeve, Vin realized that he was having similar, if slightly different feelings. If there ever came a time where Sabastian didn't want him near him anymore, if he actually told him to hit the road, then Vin felt as if he might lose himself. He hadn't realized it until that moment, but he feared the rejection just as badly as Sabastian did.

He was scared to be that close to someone. He was scared to feel the things he was feeling and definitely scared to give into them. But he had already made his choice, hadn't he?

"I..."

He knew he needed to wipe that look of surprise off his face and say something, but right in that moment, words were not coming to him very easily. He opened his mouth to try again, and when he couldn't come up with anything, he closed it and looked down at the ground. His boot pushed the dirt around a bit as he tried to regain some of his usual confidence.

"You know I think...I already fell for you pretty hard little man. Cause there's no way it's just a casual interest when every time you do something as simple as say my name, I feel like my hearts trying to beat it's way up through my chest. I already told you the risk is worth it to me, but it isn't just because I want to touch you, it's because it's you Bastian. This whole conversation is scaring the shit out of me, but even as scared as I am right now, it still doesn't come anywhere close to how scared I was of losing you when we were back at the prison."

He looked back up into his face then, trying and failing to hide just how vulnerable he actually felt in that moment.
______

"Well too bad" she giggled.

"Buuuut, I do agree that he seems to really adore the little marshmallow."

"You know we can't ever let him hear us call him that, right?" she giggled again, adjusting Bowie so that he was sitting up on her shoulders, and consequently, around Damiens shoulders as well.

"God that water is gorgeous. Are you going to stay on the dock? Or is that too close?"

She started looking around a bit, wondering if there was a beach area nearby with any shade.

 

[Poprockz]

Sayori bit her lip for a moment, not expecting that specific response. Just what had he been through with the General breathing down his neck? For now, she didn't want to think about that. All she knew was that he would want to know if his sister was in any danger.

"Well... That guy in the picture. Damien is his name. He... took advantage of me. He was going to drive me home but abducted me instead for three days in a cabin in the woods. He was a rich guy, so the cabin wasn't gross, but I still didn't want to be there. Damien... forced me several times before he let me go. He never hurt me, but maybe he's different now. The General said that he came through another base with Cora and that the day after the base went down with an outbreak. He seemed to think that maybe Damien was responsible, but I don't know if he was being truthful or trying to play me, so I don't know... All I know is that he seemed very hungry for something that I couldn't give him."

---------------------------------------------------------

When he was done, there was simply silence. Vin looked down at him with a shocked expression, moving his hand away from Sabastian's face. The little blonde started to get worried, his arms uncrossing and reaching down so he could at least grip the bark of the tree for support. If Vin turned him down now, it was going to be painful. His brows furrowed in worry and he felt like his legs might turn to jelly at any second.

When Vin looked down at the ground and didn't reply as the silence dragged on, Sabastian felt an ache in his heart. It seemed like Vin was struggling with how to delicately turn him down. Finding a lump in his throat, he tried to swallow hard, but it didn't seem to help. God, he felt stupid. Stupid for having ruined shit.

He was about to apologize and tell Vin it was okay and that he understood when he heard the man's soft voice start speaking. By the time he was done, Sabastian was staring at him in surprise. Vin... had fallen for him? How?

"but it isn't just because I want to touch you, it's because it's you Bastian..."

Sabastian couldn't help a few tears from falling, hearing the exact words that he needed to hear. It confirmed that it wasn't just casual for Vin, nor was it just a physical longing.

When those dark brown eyes finally met his, he looked deeply into them, transfixed. He found his hands sliding up Vin's chest to cradle his face delicately in his graceful hands. "When your smell disappeared at the base and I thought you were dead, I was a mess. The thought of never seeing your brown eyes, or the way you grin so easily, or your fingers moving over the guitar I gave you made me feel heartbroken. It might be selfish and scary, but I want you, Vin. I want you more than anything."

He went onto his tippy toes and kissed him tenderly, closing his eyes. He felt like his heart might burst in that moment, knowing that Vin wanted him.

--------------------------------------------

Damien chuckled, "oh I know. If he ever caught wind of it, he'd be pouty for days." He reached up and gently pet Bowie's scales when he was draped over his shoulders, having developed a fondness for how they felt so smooth and almost silky in a way.

His eyes scanned the lake and he nodded. "The water is definitely beautiful. As far as the dock goes, that's a bit too close for me, so I'll find a tree to sit under. Hopefully I'll find one nearby. If not, I can always just hang out on the bank a bit." He smiled and let his fingers lightly drag down her side and back from around her, his hand lingering at the small of her back before being removed. While he had a phobia of being in water, that didn't mean he couldn't appreciate that it looked nice. The way the sun made the little waves sparkle was quite dazzling.

 

[Drobabes]

No noise came from across the bars after Sayori spoke her peace. The only noise that could be heard then was the soft crying from the cell around the corner, and occasionally the banging of a zombie hitting the glass from their mindless walking.
______

He was crying? Why was he crying?

Vin looked positively confused as he stared down into Sabastians face until he began talking, his emotions bubbling over into his voice. A sad smile took over the confused expression, and he let his hand come back down to cup his cheek gently.

"I want you more than anything."

Suddenly those soft lips were on his own, making him groan as his own eyes close. Both his hands come down to grip his hips, and then Vin lifts his small body up and pins it against the tree with his own waist and one hand, which he moves down under his ass. His kiss turns hungry and greedy, and it's a good minute or more before he finally let's Sabastian breath. He moves his nose down to his neck, and he gives him a playful bite on that creamy skin.

"If you keep telling me things like that, either my heart or my dick is going to explode. Maybe both."
______

Cora was getting a bit giddy now, the sight of the cool water making her shiver a little even though she hadn't even jumped in yet. She contained her excitement just long enough for them to find a nice shady little bank, and then she sat her bag down and handed Bowie off to Damien. Once he had the snake, she peeled her shirt off and unbuttoned her pants. She had already prepared that morning by putting on a black sports bra and wearing her black cotton short shorts under her pants, which, admittedly were meant for sleeping and not swimming.

Looking over her shoulder at Damien with a big grin, she ran out to the water, fully intent on just hopping right in. However, the second her toes went in, she yipped and jumped back.

"Jesus that's cold!" she squealed, her voice going a bit higher than normal. Her hands flew to her arms, even though it had to have been at least a hundred degrees out, and she hugged herself like she were in a snowstorm. After that, she looked around for a moment until she found a big boulder that was sticking somewhat out into the water, but still up on dry land. She walked over to it, climbed up, and then stared down into the water. Once she was sure that it was deep enough, she back tracked until she was up on the embankment again.

She put her arms down and shook her hands at her sides a bit, taking a few deep breaths. Once she felt ready, she got a running head start, and then kicked herself off from the boulder and belly flopped into the water. It wasn't very graceful, but it did it's job and got her fully submersed.When she came back up, she was gasping hard, and then mock crying as she once again held her arms and shivered.

 

[Poprockz]

Sayori looked down. It wasn’t as though she had given him good news, so the lack of reply wasn’t defying expectations. She wanted to reach out to him, ask him if he was okay, but she knew he wasn’t. He was probably struggling with that news, and Sayori didn’t know how to ease his mind.

“I’m sorry...” she said simply, laying down in n her bed and pulling the covers over herself. Her stomach growled in hunger but she ignored it once more.

——————————————

Sabastian hadn’t expected to be lifted up, but he found it incredibly sexy to be pinned to the tree like that. To have Vin’s groin pushing and rubbing up against his own made him whimper with longing, wrapping his legs around Vin’s waist to better help hold himself up. That tender kiss they shared turned ravenous, the little blonde feeling like Vin was going to eat him alive; not that he would have protested one bit though. He kissed back, trying to match the intensity, but Vin managed to dominate his mouth the entire time.

By the end of that minute, his cock was hard and he was breathless and almost dizzy. Though the main feeling coursing through him was an overwhelming sense of joy. Vin wanted him, all of him, and that made him the happiest man in the world. His own heart felt like it might burst too, the man moaning from those teeth on the sensitive skin of his neck.

He panted for a moment before leaning forward so that his lips hovered near his ear. “Well, I can’t do anything about your heart bursting, but if your dick explodes, I’ll take responsibility and clean it up for you. I’d make sure to get every last drop.”

Usually saying such a thing would be a bit too embarrassing, but he didn’t have to make eye contact while saying it, and he felt swept up in longing for the big man. Since Vin couldn’t see, he extended his tongue just a little so he could lick the man’s ear from the bottom to the top, then twist his tongue slightly to lick down the very edge of his ear.

———————————

He had been hoping she would be naked under her clothes and have to change into her swimming items, but no such luck. She did look pretty damn nice in her swimming outfit though, so he simply let his eyes wander over her body.

Damien leaned back against the tree he was sitting under, Bowie resting around his shoulders. It was super hot out, so he was glad for the shade. He imagined Bowie was grateful for it too, but snakes and reptiles seemed to have a much easier time with heat than a lot of animals so he assumed the snake was simply very comfortable.

He watched Cora try to get into the water, grinning as she yipped from the cold. She was just too damn adorable, it wasn’t fair. Part of him wished he could get into the water with her, splash her, race her, do whatever people did in the water, but the very thought of getting in made his stomach clench.

Bowie stretched out on his shoulders, raising his head up and toward Cora as though he was watching her too, that little tongue flicking out occasionally. Both of them turned their heads as she got a running start, and both of them seeming to cringe when she belly-flopped. He hoped that didn’t hurt at all, but she seemed fine when she popped back up and had the energy to fake-cry about how cold it was.

He chuckled, watching her shiver before cupping his hands around his mouth and calling, “if it’s too cold, you can always come back over here and I’ll warm you up.”

 

[Drobabes]

"Don't Sayori. Don't, ever, apologize for people like him."

Quint wanted to sit up and pace around the room but his body still needed some time to warm up. Still, he was highly agitated, mostly from the pain but also confusion. His sister wasn't stupid, and Quint knew Damien had been the one touching her in the picture otherwise Sayori wouldn't have bothered to bring it up. Was the man a manipulator like Kuznet? He doubted he was that good, but even if he was, Cora had always been able to smell those types coming a mile away, even when he himself had sometimes missed the cues. So then, why the hell did she look so happy?

With a grunt, he manages to get himself up in a sitting position. He stays like that for a moment, trying to catch his breath, before he speaks again.

"He may not have hurt you Sayori, but don't try and justify that shit. What he did to you was disgusting. I don't know why my sister is with him or what it means... Don't listen to Kuznet either. There's always a little truth in what he says, but it's always wrapped up in a mentally fucked game. He's a master at getting inside your head."

He turned his head to the camera in the corner, staring at it for a good long moment, then looked away. They usually didn't withhold the food this long, and he wondered if it was another knew, fun, game, or if he had simply been a bratty child and gotten them both sent to bed without dinner.
______

"Fuck..." he hissed, those words whispered in his ear made his already hardening member jump to attention, and he couldn't help but push up against Sabastian and try to get some relief when he felt that moist, warm tongue slide along his ear.

He wished he could put him down on his feet and turn him around, but Cora and Damien were still near by, and they had come out here to practice. Still...

His hand on his ass kneaded that soft cheek with longing, and even though he did finally step back and sit Sabastian down, he just as quickly had him pushed back against the tree again with another hungry kiss. One of his hands went to the back of his head, gripping that soft blond hair gently, and his other hand went down near the bottom of his shirt, and then up and under to find that sensitive little button so that he could pinch and fondle it with need. He groaned, feeling how quickly it hardened between his fingers, and it took a good chunk of his will power to finally let him go and step back a bit.

"Damnit Bastian," he chuckled.

"We're supposed to be testing your self control, not mine."
______

"No way!"

She grinned widely and then threw herself onto her back so she could start backpedaling away. Her strong legs lent strength to her kicks, and while she wasn't quite as fast as she was on land, she still got an impressive little burst of speed in there before tiring. After that, she just lazily floated on her back for a moment as she enjoyed the much warmer water near the surface.

 

[Poprockz]

“I’m not apologizing for him, I’m apologizing for burdening you with that knowledge... I can tell you love her very much, and no one wants to hear of their loved ones facing danger. I also understand that Kuznet is a demon with honeyed words... I don’t know why he enjoys playing such twisted games.” She thought back to that moment, the way he had given her that twisted grin. If someone told her that he was truly a demon from hell, she would have believed them.

“I don’t kill my livestock.” She shuddered at the memory.

Sayori’s stomach rumbled again and she sighed. The only thing she had eaten in the last four days had been the granola bar Kuznet gave her and some cream and sugar that were in the hotel room. Well... that and the cum the men had forced her to swallow. She stood up and went over to the sink, turning it on and cupping her hands to drink. Maybe if she filled her belly with water, it would ease the ache in her stomach.

Though she had no idea what the food schedule was like here, she hoped it was at least daily. Otherwise, a petite woman like herself would likely starve after a while. Though... starving didn’t sound like too bad of a way to go, considering some of the alternatives. For now, it just hurt.

“I do hope they feed us soon. The granola bar he gave me was the most substantial thing I’ve had in four days... He knows this though, so maybe he’s simply angry.” She sighed and went back to her bed to snuggle against the wall of her cell.

—————————————

The way Vin grinded against him made him shudder, his own cock feeling good from the pressure of his hips. He wanted to keep pushing against him like that until he came, but he soon found himself being set back on the ground. However, he was happy to find Vin’s lips upon him again, pinned against the tree once more.

God, he just wanted to stay there with him forever, letting their mouths express their desire to each other under the summer sun. He felt Vin’s hand creeping up his shirt, and when he felt him pinch his nipple, it was like an electric shock to his cock. “Mmm...” he moaned into the kiss, the haze of pleasure making it difficult to think straight.

He had to lean against the tree for support when Vin drew back, a bulge in his pants and his nipples poking slightly into his shirt.

“Sorry... I can’t help it. You just turn me on so easily...” he panted softly. Now that Vin was in front of him, he wasn’t quite as confident, blushing as he squirmed the slightest bit. He wanted to stroke himself, have Vin stroke him, or some such thing, but he knew their training should probably come first.

“What do you want me to do first?” He asked, leaning his head back against the tree as he caught his breath.

————————————

Damien smirked, “your loss...” he called before chuckling and crossing his arms. He simply watched her swim, interested in the graceful and powerful way her body moved in the lake. She was dazzling, and he found himself staring.

He broke off the stare and looked at Bowie. “How the hell is she so perfect?” Damien asked softly. He didn’t expect an answer from Bowie so he simply sighed happily and reached out to rub the snake’s forehead a bit.

 

[Drobabes]

"No, I'm glad you told me Sayori."

After that, Quentin went quiet.

It would be a good few hours before anyone else came down to visit the prisoners. Shoes walking on the hard ground were the first thing they hear, and then Officer Francisco, the man who had helped Sayori across the complex, would round the corner with a large tray of food. He stopped in front of her cell first, punching a code in to unlock the door, and then he stepped inside with the tray. His expression was somewhat neutral as he came to her bed and sat the tray down on it, then began to move her portion onto the matress.

It consisted of a bottle of water, another granola bar, some mashed potatoes, and some steamed carrots. Everything was portioned out on paper plates and served with plastic spoons, likely so that they couldn't try to make a weapon. He then reached onto the tray and picked up a small paper cup which had some pills in it. Turning to her and finally acknowledging her presence, he shook the pills a little bit and handed them out towards her, expecting her to take them.

"Antibiotics, and some more ibuprofen. General Kuznet wants you back in full health as soon as possible."

His tone was neutral, but where as Robo Cop had stared at her with cold indifference bordering on hatred, Officer Francisco was much harder to read. He didn't hold the same cold, twisted hatred that the other two seemed to carry. It was if he were simply carrying out his duties because these were the tasks he had been assigned.

Vin grinned, watching his little man squirm with need. He loved that he was so hot and bothered, that rosy blush and dizzy look in his eyes telling tales of how much he needed to cum in that moment. He thought to himself that having him a little distracted might not be such a bad idea, it would give him practice to focus through the haze of lust.

His brown eyes finally peeled themselves away from his flushed face and looked around. He crossed his arms for a moment, thinking, and then he spotted a fallen tree.

"Alright, that" he said, pointing at a fallen redwood. It was the type of tree that would usually have required a team of men to chop it up into smaller portions and use tractors to move it, it's size was so massive.

"See if you can move that, even a little."

Vin stepped back to watch, not really expecting a whole lot to happen. That tree had to weigh at least a ton, if not more, and he didn't really expect Sabastian to be able to move it.
______

Bowie seemed to enjoy the head rubs, lifting his head for more when Damien starts to pull his hand away.

Out on the water, Cora was fully enjoying herself. She swam in a few laps, and then went back to resting as she looked down into the water, watching with interest as the fish swam by. The water was so peaceful and quiet, and not a soul in sight. It was the type of day that she liked to go out on her own on occasion, just simply enjoying nature.

She was just about to lay her head back in the water again when she thought she heard something echo over the ripples that her body had created. It was a sort of electronic click, and something about that noise sent a shiver of fear running right up her spine. She got herself upright and then stared all around the other side of the lake, opposite of Damien. It was difficult to tell exactly which direction she had heard the sound coming from, but suddenly she found she couldn't look away until her mind could find a reason for it; some explanation of what it was.

There was nothing there but some chipmunks playing tag on a tree stump, and then a huge crowd swooped down and over the water, making her turn her head to follow it. When she let her eyes come down, she saw Damien laying there under the tree with Bowie and it sent a warm flush of love through her. Perhaps it was just the crow; they were known for imitating noises quite easily.

She swam back to the embankment and then pulled herself up out of the water, giving Damien a coy smile as she walked midway between himself and the water. Her body dripped water down her skin, which almost glistened in the sun, and as she bent her head down a bit to wring out her hair, her breasts were pushed up to the front of her bra and put on proud display.

"Can you bring me the little brush that's in my bag?" she asked sweetly. She wouldn't push him to come near the water, but she was curious how close he could get, and perhaps, over time, how close she could get him to come. Maybe if he got used to it in a safe environment, it might help him to get over a bit of the fear. He had said he knew how to swim, so he had to have forced himself to be in water at one point or another.

 

[Poprockz]

Sayori heard the footsteps and then smelled the food, her mouth watering as she saw someone come by with a tray. Officer Francisco... The kind officer who had led her right to Kuznet. So he was in on everything as well then. It figured. Everyone but Quint had turned out to be two-faced, so why shouldn't he be any different?

She watched him come in and dish her up, not speaking to him either. Her eyes hungrily observed the food he gave her; while it was a very simple meal, it would fill her up and she was grateful for anything to eat.

"General Kuznet wants you back in full health as soon as possible."

The woman very much doubted that Kuznet wanted her healthy, nor that he gave a shit whether she was in pain or not. For all she knew, those pills were placebos, or something more sinister. The antibiotics she could understand- that would prevent infection and therefore keep her alive for the purpose of hosting Quint's eggs. The ibuprofen was useless though- all it did was reduce the swelling in her ankle and whip-marks, and help with the pain. It was a mercy rather than a necessity, and that made her suspicious.

With a placid expression, she took the little cup of pills and set it on her plate, nodding to him before eating a carrot. It was just steamed, not even seasoned, but it tasted really good to her. However, she made no move to take the pills yet.

-------------------------------------------------

Sabastian felt hot and needy under Vin's grin, and he had to look away to calm his beating heart. He looked over to where Vin had pointed to, seeing the tree on its side. It was such a big tree, he wondered if it would even budge from his grip. Maybe Vin was just fucking with him, wanting to see him crouch down and work himself into a sweat as he tried to lift it. Well, If Vin wanted to see him sweaty and spent, then there was no way around it, embarrassing as that might be.

Walking over to it, he hesitantly put his hands on the wood facing in the opposite direction as Vin. He only had to move it a little, right? Maybe he could try to push it, but it would probably take a lot of force. He crouched down and took a breath before giving it a shove with his body weight. The trunk rolled so easily forward that Sabastian didn't have time to brace himself properly and face-planted in the mud where the trunk had used to be.

Lifting himself up a bit, he stared in shock at the trunk, wondering what the fuck just happened. He didn't even try to get up yet, a bit at a loss at the moment.

--------------------------------------------------

Damien continued to give Bowie the head rubs when the snake pressed him for more. It seemed like bowie was growing more and more fond of physical affection, and he wondered whether the snake actually had any feelings of affection for them or just liked the touch.

He hadn't heard the click, simply focused back and forth from Bowie to Cora. However, when she got out of the lake, glistening with water, his attention was captured by her. His eyes tried to take in every detail, loving the way she bent over in such a sexy way, ringing out her hair as though she was in some kind of hot commercial. Hell, she was beautiful enough to be in one of those commercials for sure; it wouldn't matter what the product was, he would buy them out of stock.

Damien was almost so mesmerized that he didn't process her request for a moment or two before blinking and quickly getting to his feet. He searched her bag, finding a brush and walking over to her. By his measure, there was about seven feet from himself to the water, so it was safe. If he tripped and fell, he would still be on dry land. Though he seemed a bit nervous, he arrived in front of her and handed her the brush.

"Need any sun block? I could apply some for you..." He let his face fall into a smirk, focusing on her to keep his nerves down.

 

[Drobabes]

Officer Francisco frowned down at her before he stood up straight and took a professional stance.

"Ms.Sayori, you don't honestly think that's going to fly, do you? Take the pills. If you don't, I will have to force them down your throat, and my fingers are very calloused."

Quint could hear him on his side of the cell, and he couldn't help but cringe.
______

Delvin stared in shock, his arms having dropped down to his sides and his mouth hanging open just a bit. What finally broke him out of it was seeing that Sabastian had fallen and become covered in mud. Quickly he made his way over to him and reached under his arms, lifting him up and trying to help get some of the dirt off, although he only seemed to smear it more.

"Holy shit...that was...fucking awesome! Here, here, do it again. Or better yet, try and lift it up!"
______

Cora watched him with a bit of an amused smile as he came to her with the brush. She almost felt bad with how easy it was to persuade him with her gentle requests and just a little tease of her body, but she would be lying if she said it wasn't just a little fun.

"Maybe after I dry off a little. I just thought I felt a piece of plant in my hair, so I wanted to get it out before it tangled. I think I'll swim a little more, and then I'll come lay next to you."

She stood up on her toes then, giving him a lingering kiss before lowering herself and looking at Bowie.

"I wonder if the hansen boy wants to take a swim. Do you want to swim, Bowie?"

 

[Poprockz]

She blinked and looked up at him innocently. "I don't know what you mean? I always thought that pills are absorbed better and cause less indigestion if taken on a full stomach, especially harsh ones like ibuprofen. If you want me to take them now, I will though."

Sayori cursed him in her mind, having wanted to either store the "ibuprofen" or flush it. Why was he calling her "Ms. Sayori" anyway? It wasn't as though this was some polite society where titles had any place or meaning.

Taking the little cup and the water bottle, she opened the bottle and took out the antibiotics, popping them in her mouth before taking a drink and swallowing them. While she hated that she was being made to do it, she recognized that they would keep Robo cop's dirty whip from doing any damage to her. Once that was done, she took the four ibuprofen and popped them in her mouth as well, secretly tucking two of them under the right-back of her tongue. The other two she swallowed to make the swallow seem realistic, taking a drink of the water. She would have preferred not taking any, but cutting her dosage in half was something at least.

"There. I have taken them." She reached down and took another carrot, chewing it before swallowing.

--------------------------------------------------

Sabastian felt hands under his arms and soon he was on his feet, Vin's hands trying (and failing) to clean him off. "Did I... do that?" He asked in bewilderment. "How...?" He felt a bit scared for a moment, knowing that he could roll over such a massive tree. Why could he do that? It just felt like too much. So many children dreamed of having super strength, but he wasn't sure that he wanted it.

However, looking up at that adorable excited look of Vin's, he felt a bit less nervous about it. Whatever happened, Vin would still be there with him, and the big man seemed more impressed than afraid.

He walked over to the tree and simply stood there for a moment. Picking it up was all well and good, but it was so thick, how was he supposed to pick it up when it was covered in slippery moss and he couldn't even put his arms around 1/3rd of it. It would be easier to pick it up from the roots or the top. Walking around it, he found the roots and walked close, grabbing some in the middle to try to pull the tree back into a standing position.

Hesitantly, he started to pull. The tree started moving, lifting from the ground and creaking as he used the strength of his body to pull the tree into an up-right position. Once it was there, it seemed rather unstable, so he went to the other side and started letting it down. All that was holding up the tree was him, and while he didn't actually "pick up" the tree, it was obvious that the tree would have crushed him if he wasn't bearing the full brunt of its weight. When it got mostly down, he pushed it and dropped it slightly so that it crashed down next to him.

--------------------------------------------------------

He smiled, reaching out and running his fingers through her brushed hair before nodding. "Okay, that sounds fair enough to me. I'll be waiting with baited breath. Don't hurry on my account though, I love watching you swim. It's nice seeing you have so much fun."

Damien kissed her back, his hands going to her hips before letting her go. Though, he raised his eyebrow at the idea of Bowie swimming. Could all snakes swim, or only certain types? Did snakes like swimming? It was an interesting idea.

Bowie raised his head and stretched his neck out, bobbing slightly as he tried to reach her shoulder. Normally, a snake might not have had the muscle to keep himself straight while reaching so far out, but he was able to do so with relatively little effort, slithering around her shoulders and leaving Damien behind.

"I suppose that's a yes?" Damien mused, looking at the little guy with amusement.

 

[Drobabes]

The frown didn't leave the officers face as he took out a little pen light from his pocket. He then reached out gripped her chin. Not painfully, but enough that she couldn't turn away from him unless she wanted to try and fight him.

"Open your mouth, and then lift your tongue to the roof of your mouth."
______

He watched him with baited breath, and as the tree began to move, that grin only grew wider. He stepped back, and then put his hands up slightly as he watched Sabastian lifting it, the gigantic trunk almost seeming to sway.

"Easy, easy..." he said under his breath, a little nervous about him dropping it but also not wanting to breath down his neck. This was likely the first time he had tried this and he didn't want to make him nervous. Once the tree was safely back on the ground, Vin stared at him like he was staring at a comic book hero. He really couldn't help himself though, this was the coolest shit he had ever seen.

"Alright..."

He walked over to him, and looked around a bit.

"Usually I wouldn't advocate for doing something like this, but let's see if you can actually knock a tree down. One that's already rooted in the ground. I would say let's throw a boulder or something up in the air, but if you get your aim wrong, you might not be able to catch it on the way down."
______

Cora smiled at them both, and when Bowie bridged the gap between them, she laughed softly.

"I think that is a definite yes."

She gave his hand a little squeeze before turning back to the water and walking in slowly. Once it was up to her shoulders, she put her arm out and let Bowie get himself adjusted to the cool temperature, not wanting to shock his system going from one extreme to the other. After a few moments, he was swimming around just fine, and then she dived in and took off like she was trying to win a race.

Not a moment after, Bowie followed after her, his white and orange body shining brightly under the sun.

 

[Poprockz]

When he grabbed her chin, she knew it was over. Therefore, she dislodged the pills and quickly swallowed them before opening her mouth, lifting her tongue as he examined.

“See? Nothing there.” She said softly, avoiding his gaze. Sayori was thankful that there was just enough spit in her mouth to have swallowed them with minimal problems. Otherwise, he might have discovered her trying to hide them. He might still have guessed that she had been trying to pull a fast one, but there was no evidence of that now.

——————————————

Sabastian looked up at him as he suggested knocking a tree over. He really looked like he was having fun with this, and that brought a little smile to Sabastian’s face despite the bit of worry in his stomach.

“Um. I suppose I could try to punch one over. I’ve never punched anything or anyone before. Can you give me some pointers on how to do it safely? Or maybe I should just use my... well, my extra arms. You’d have to promise me not to look though.” He shifted nervously, not liking the idea of Vin seeing even one of his appendages, let alone all four of them.

He waited for his answer, wiping some of the mud off his own face, or at least attempting to do so.

———————————-

Damien watched them go, wishing he could follow them in. He took a step forward and stopped; his heart started to beat quickly and it started to feel like he couldn’t breathe, his breath becoming more panicked and shallow.

He turned away and quickly went back to the tree, sitting down and leaning back against it. His eyes fixed on Cora, trying to concentrate on her as his anchor before he was swept away. His hands went into fists, shaking in his lap as he made an effort to calm himself. Damien breathed deeply, eventually able to become centered again after a while.

 

[Drobabes]

He held her chin for a few seconds longer, having caught the way her throat worked as she swallowed once more before she had opened her mouth. Whether or not she had swallowed from nervousness, or actually had more pills in her mouth, he wasn't sure. It didn't matter now, though.

When he released her chin, his eyes bore into her own for a few seconds, and then he began to pick the tray up.

"Do not do that again Ms.Sayori. I'm sure Quinton can tell you how inadvisable it is to break the rules."

He stood, the tray in his hands, and looked at her one last time before exiting her cell and then punching the number into the little box once more. Once her door was shut, he made his way to Quints cell.

"Oh what's up officer london bridge, did you bring me any meat this time? No? Damn."

He had turned his chair around to face the man as he came in, taking the tray from him when it was handed to him. After a quick inspection of the food, he wasted no time in scarfing it down.

"Hey," he called to the man just before he exited, and trying to talk through his chewing, he managed to get out one more question as Francisco looked back over his shoulder.

"I don't get any pain medication? I actually lost a limb, you know."

"You mutilated yourself Quint. Do you want us to give you a bib for your meals as well now?"

He pushed the keypad, waited until the door slid behind him, and then left. In the silence that followed, Quint focused on his meal as he thought about what he had just been told, and what he had seen peeking out from the back of Francisco's jean pocket.
______

"I can show you how to throw a decent punch if you want, but I don't know if you'll need it" he chuckled, peeling his shirt off and coming to stand by him. Using the corner of it, he wiped the majority of the mud from Sabastians face and then stared down into his eyes with that toothy grin.

"You can bring them out Sabastian. I was going to suggest you do it anyway, but don't feel embarrassed. It's just another part of your body now, like extra limbs. You don't need to feel ashamed of your body."

He put his shirt into the little blonds hands and then patted his hair down, laughing a little at how messy it had become. He looked like a cute little mudpie, and Vin thought to himself that he was going to have fun throwing him into the lake later when they were done.

"Besides, don't you want to know your strength with them too?"

Vin was going to say something else in an attempt to make him feel more comfortable, but suddenly he heard Cora scream, and then laugh loudly, the sound of it echoing through the trees. When he looked over, all he saw was her body go zooming through the water before the trees blocked the view once more.

"What in the hell?.."
______

Cora looked back over her shoulder, and her eyes focused in on Bowie as he was quickly catching up with her. She let out a little squeal of a laugh, and then suddenly turned her direction around and started swimming back towards the bank. Once she was about halfway there, she got tuckered out again and had to stop. While she caught her breath, she watched with amusement as Bowie swam in circles around her. And then, suddenly, he disappeared down under the water.

A little panic gripped her as she started looking around in the water, trying to find him.

"Bowie?!"

Suddenly she felt something wrap around her wrist and start tugging her to the left, and when she looked, she saw that sneaky little orange head with those little amethyst jewels come popping up out of the water. His tail was now wrapped around her wrist and he was dragging her easily through the current like a little tug boat.

At first she just grinned, finding the new experience a little crazy, but fun. That was, until the snake suddenly kicked up into a new speed and then she was being dragged over the surface of the water at about twenty miles per hour.

It must have been a very odd sight from shore, an orange zombie snake dragging it's owner through the lake while she half screamed, and half laughed between breaths.

 

[Poprockz]

Sayori simply avoided his eyes, not giving him a response to his words. When his back was turned, she watched him go over to Quint's cell and listened in on their conversation while eating more of the carrots. The comment about him being "London Bridge" brought a smile to her face, wondering if she was right in assuming that he was making a joke about his name being "Francisco."

"I'm sorry Quint. If he hadn't forced me to take them, I would have saved a couple for you. I don't even know why he gave me ibuprofen. They've put me through so much pain already, why would they want to ease it now? Doesn't he enjoy seeing people suffer?" Her voice was a little bitter at that point, finishing up her carrots and starting to spoon up her mashed potatoes. Maybe she would hold onto the granola bar for later in case they decided not to feed her for very long again.

------------------------

He watched as Vin took off his shirt, loving that he got to see that sexy chest again, especially with his dragon tattoo. For a second he thought maybe he was just a bit hot before the shirt was used to wipe off Sabastian's muddy face. It was cute the way he cleaned him, so gentle in the little wipes he made to his face.

That being said, the man was trying to convince him to bring out his appendages and let him see him doing it. Even though Vin told him that he shouldn't be ashamed of his body, he couldn't help but feel like this was something else entirely. He was very insecure about his tentacles, especially with Vin. Cora had seemed okay with one of them, but she was the only one he had really showed one to so far. He didn't have feelings for Cora though- he had feelings for Vin, and as such, he didn't want him seeing that part of himself.

The blonde frowned and opened his mouth to argue before he heard Cora's scream and laugh. His face turned toward the lake and Sabastian giggled, picking up vibes of joy and playfulness from the snake. "Bowie feels very playful today," he mentioned with amusement before his nervousness returned.

"I do want to know my strength with them, but I don't want you to see them. They're... ugly and weird and... disgusting. I really don't want you seeing that part of me, the part that isn't human. So... just don't look, okay?" While his speech was mostly soft and vulnerable, the end sounded a bit stubborn and grumpy, as though he wanted to be done with the conversation. There was no way he was going to be convinced otherwise, and if Vin insisted on keeping his eyes open, then he would just have to punch the tree down with his human hand, end of story.

-------------------------------------------

Damien had been recovering from his little scare, closing his eyes and focusing on keeping his breath even. Once he was calm, he simply sat there, listening to the sound of splashing and laughing and- The man jumped up as he heard her scream, looking over in a panic as he looked over the lake. He soon heard her laughter follow shortly after and he let out a deep breath. While it seemed extremely unlikely, it seemed that the snake was zooming around the lake with Cora in tow.

The man had been afraid that maybe she had gotten a cramp or was having trouble swimming or something. The thought of her drowning and him being unable to do anything to save her made him swallow hard. How pathetic would it be if he let her sink while kneeling on the shore, shivering and paralyzed? Didn't he love her enough to save her? Shouldn't that be all he needed to overcome that old trauma?

 

[Drobabes]

"It's alright, he would have just saw you giving it to me on the camera and he would have hurt you for it. I hate to say it, but London Bridge is right-you shouldn't break or try to skirt around his rules. You'll just get yourself hurt."

He chomped the rest of his carrots down and finished his mash potatoes before answering her other question. Even just the simple act of trying to sit up and eat was making pain radiate out from his side, not to mention the kick to his ribs earlier, and he wanted to lay down as soon as possible.

"He does enjoy seeing people suffer. The sick fuck gets off on that shit."

Quint put his tray and the now empty containers, down on the ground, and then he made his way over to his bed and carefully laid down on his back.

"It's probably not that he cares if you're in pain or not. He probably just wants your body to be in the best shape it can be if he's going to keep making use of you, but it needs to heal to do that."

He was aware that his explanation probably sounded cold, but he didn't want to delude Sayori in any way as to the monster that had his claw over her. He was a ruthless man and would only take the necessary steps to get what he wanted.

"You're ankle looked swollen. The ibuprofen is a painkiller, but it takes swelling down too, so he probably gave it to you for that reason..."
______

The big man simply shook his head with amusement, then turned his attention back to Sabastian. While it hurt him to hear that, that the little blond still felt like he was disgusting in some way, he couldn't help but get a little annoyed with how stubborn he was being. He understood that he didn't feel comfortable with them, but how was he supposed to get comfortable if he never brought them out? And Vin hadn't held a mans wrists down while he was tortured for well over an hour, then consented and even participated in the death sentence that they handed out to that same man, just to pick and choose which parts of Sabastian he found pretty or not.

His smile slowly dropped and was replaced with a bit of a scowl as he crossed his arms and stared down hard into that hansom face.

"Sabastian..."

His name on his lips was a warning. He was starting to get awful close to Vin's line, and if he gave him any more of that grouchy little reply, then Vin was just going to have pull him over his lap.

"You can't just keep them hidden from me. Sooner or later you're going to have to bring them out."
______

Bowie changed his angle slight, and with a wide arc, brought them both back around and back to the point where they had started. By the time the snake finally released her wrist, Cora was pretty exhausted from screaming and laughing. She watched as the sneaky snake swam for shore, and she followed. Once she was out of the water, and still with a good amount of giggles left in her chest, she got about a foot from the spot where she had asked Damien for the brush, and then she dramatically laid down on the sand, panting.

"I'm done, go on without me Bowie!" she laughed, raising her hand up in the air and then letting it drop down.

"Tell Damien I loved him!"

 

[Poprockz]

She listened to him silently as she ate her potatoes. The granola bar was supposed to be for later but... she was still hungry and needed a little bit of comfort. Peeling off the wrapper, she took a bite and sighed at the way the honey made it taste sweet, chewing and swallowing it before putting her head in her hands. "I suppose I really am livestock to him, just like he said," Sayori said quietly.

Sayori wasn't going to say it out loud, but she assumed he wanted her healthy for the eggs. Either that or he just liked the idea of her being able to walk around on her own without hobbling. Maybe that would make carting her around more time-efficient. In any case, she was tired of all of these rules, all of the cruel things happening here at this prison, and of that evil man. She just wanted to get out and be free.

Finishing up her granola bar, she kept the water bottle next to her bed so she could take drinks later as well and then fill it up from the sink when it was empty. She put the wrapper on the plate along with the spoon and put it on the floor as well. Once that was done, she didn't much feel like talking anymore. She pulled the blanket off her hips and used it like a legitimate blanket, curling up with her forehead against the wall.

"I'm going to sleep again, Quint. Please don't wake me up unless you really need to talk to me. I'm... really tired. I just need to rest for a while longer." Her soft voice was a bit deflated, the woman a bit exhausted from everything. Sleep would be a welcome escape- the only place she could go where the General or his lackeys couldn't follow.

-----------------------------------------------

Sabastian saw the way Vin was starting to get annoyed with him, but Vin didn't have any weird tentacles, so he couldn't talk. The way he growled at him like a stern warning wasn't going to sway him, even if it was just a tad sexy.

"No. There's nothing you can say that'll make me change my mind." He responded shortly, his brows furrowed as he looked at Vin defiantly. Sabastian stubbornly thought to himself that if he could help it, he would hide them forever. Vin didn't have to see them to be with him. In fact, Sabastian technically didn't have to take them out at all. The human race had been surviving without tentacles for centuries, so he would as well.

The little man turned away from Vin and started walking away toward a tree he might be able to punch, tossing Vin's shirt over his shoulder.

-----------------------------------------------------

"Tell him yourself."

Damien sat down nearby, still at the seven-foot mark away from the water. He wasn't going to come any closer, not after what had just happened. It was lucky she had been swimming when he had approached earlier. Otherwise, she would have had to see him pathetically shake just from being near a body of water.

He sat cross-legged, watching the way her chest moved as she caught her breath, and the way her face was lit up with joy and elation. Damien had to admit that the idea of being pulled by the snake at high-speeds sounded kind of cool, but he knew it would never be for him.

"That was really weird, but cool. Was he actually tugging you along? How was he moving that fast?" He looked at Bowie in amazement, the little snake heading for a warm rock to dry and warm himself on.

 

[Drobabes]

He couldn't quite hear the first thing she had said, as she was rather quiet and muffled by her hands, but when she asked him not to wake her, he looked towards the concrete separating them.

"I won't. I'll... Well, try to get some restful sleep Sayori."

Quint wanted to tell her that he would still be there when she woke up, to try and give her some kind of comfort, but he wasn't sure if that was true. They took him out rather randomly and he didn't want her to wake up and call to him only for him not to answer.

The time after that seemed to drag on for him as he lay there in a mixture of pain, anger, and cold. The blanket they gave him was barely thicker than a shirt, and he found he couldn't fall asleep as easily as she had, it seemed. Still, just knowing that someone was there next to him, even if they were separated by a wall and bars, made him feel not so alone. Eventually, he manages to fall asleep.
______

He was shocked. Had that stubborn little man not only just crossed his line, but all but kicked some dirt on it as well? Had he really just turned his back to him as if to say the conversation was over, and then just flippantly used his shirt, to toss over his shoulder?

His feet took him quickly to the little man, his boots squishing in the mud, and then with swift movements, Vin reached out and grabbed Sabastian by his hips and lifted him up. Then just as quickly, he turned him around and slung him over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes and started stomping his way back over to the huge trunk that Sabastian had so easily shoved aside like it weighed nothing. The irony of what he was about to do was not lost on him-the little blond could easily stop him if he wanted to. However, Vin knew that strength wasn't the only thing at play here, and confidence would get him further in his control than just a raw show of muscle. That, and, swift movements that didn't leave the little man much time to react to what was about to happen.

He sat them down on the trunk of the log and then pulled Sabastian down over his lap, being careful to not let his head accidentally bump or hit the hard wood. Once he had him where he wanted him, he used one hand to pin him down by placing it firmly between his shoulder blades and using much more strength than he had the night prior. With his other hand, he quickly and efficiently yanked his jeans down until that creamy little ass was exposed to the open light.

His free hand hovered over it for just a moment, his hunger urging him to forget the punishment and just caress that soft skin. Even the way that Sabastian had acted, so sassily swaying it as he walked away, made him want to give in to that sexual want of the man and let lust take over. However...

Smack!

He brought his hand down hard on his right cheek, pulling his strength at the last second so that it smarted it with a nice sting but not being so hard as to bruise him. He wanted it to hurt, it was a punishment after all, but he didn't want to leave him where he couldn't sit down the next day.

Smack! Smack!

His hand painted his other smooth cheek with the same sting, and then once more before moving back to the right.

Smack!

He kept this pace up, alternating between his two soft globes, until he had doled out ten smacks evenly, and his once creamy white ass was now glowing red and felt hot under his calloused hand as he gently rubbed each side and hummed pleasantly to himself. He felt a little better himself, not quite as angry with that bratty little reply he had gotten. Although, he wondered if Sabastian was ready to drop it yet.

"Sabastian," he half warned, half cooed, to get his attention.

"Are you going to bring them out so you can practice properly? Or do I need to give you ten more?"

"Tell him yourself."

Cora tilted her head back, likely getting sand all in her hair, and her eyes looked over to where he had sat down.

"I will. I love you."

She smiled wide then, and then rolled over onto her stomach and moved a few inches closer to him, just close enough to touch him if she reached her arm out to him. Which she did, her hand placing itself lightly on his knees as she listened to his questions.

"Yea, super weird, but it was awesome!"

Her voice got a little higher in her excitement, and she took her hand off his knee so that she could sit up on her knees and use her hands more as she talked, gesturing towards her wrist as she did so.

"He wrapped his tail around my wrist and started tugging. Like at first I thought he was just being playful cause I had been trying to race him, but I think he thought I wanted to go faster, cause all of a sudden he just took off!"

She let her hand shoot out in front of her, and then giggled, still feeling the exhilaration of the ride the little snake had took her on. She didn't consciously realize it, but she was slowly starting to get back to the head space she had been in before the outbreak; the head space in which she felt safe and happy. Right at that moment, she felt lighthearted, like how she did when they used to take their hiking trips, and more than that, she was bonding with Damien in a different way than just the hot lust and deep love she felt for the steely eyed man.

This was fun for her, the type of fun she had rarely had outside of when she was hanging out with her brother and Sarah, and something she had been trying and failing to open herself back up to with other people that she was not so close with. She had gotten knew friends, of course, but just like the many boyfriends she had had over the years, she had always found a way to keep them out. Keep them at a safe distance from her heart.

Perhaps it was because, unconsciously, a small part of her knew that Kuznet wasn't really gone. Intuition, instinct, or whatever it was, told her that she wasn't safe yet. That the other people who wanted to get close to her, were not safe. She couldn't risk it.

With a full belly, Sayori closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep. She thought she could have escaped that way, but unfortunately that was not in the cards for her.

In her dreams, Robo-cop came into her cell and dragged her out, shackling her once more. She saw him take the whip out and bring it back as though he was going to swing it, but then he stopped. The man then walked up to her naked body and forced the phallic handle of the whip inside her, fucking her and sneering all the while. He leaned in and whispered in her ear, "pathetic."

She shook her head and looked back and then it was Quint, his white tentacle inside her, large round things passing through it and into her womb. He was laughing and joking as she was filled up, Kuznet standing behind him with a hand on his shoulder. Sayori begged for him to stop, but Quint didn't hear her, continuing on. Kuznet smirked at her words though, watching as she became dangerously large. The pressure on her stomach was unbearable and she panted in panic.

"Livestock." He purred to her before her stomach exploded.

Sayori woke up with a start in a cold sweat and wide eyes, not knowing what day or time it was, not knowing how much time had passed. She trembled and sat up, leaning against the wall for support. Tears fell from her eyes and she tried to shake the nightmare, but the images kept coming back to her.

---------------------------------------

Sabastian had only gone a few steps before he heard the sound of quick steps in the mud. He didn't even have time to turn around and see what Vin was doing before he found his feet leaving the ground. A little surprised yip came out of his mouth as he was lifted and thrown over Vin's shoulder, the little man flailing a bit before grabbing onto Vin's back. What in the world was happening?

He didn't have much time to process with Vin kidnapping him over to the log before sitting down and pulling him over his lap. Despite Vin's hand on his back, he could have pulled up if he really wanted to. However, the authority with which the hand pressed on him made him weak, and he soon felt Vin yank down his jeans to expose his ass. He felt vulnerable, and yet at the same time he trusted Vin not to do anything he knew Sabastian wouldn't be comfortable with.

"Vin, what are you-" Smack!

The sting of Vin's hand was felt upon his ass, Sabastian letting out a little yelp of surprise. Had Vin actually just spanked him? God that was hot. He blushed deeply, enjoying the sting of Vin's large hand. The proceeding spanks to his ass made him let out little noises of pain and pleasure. By the end of it, he was panting and his cock was throbbing. He wanted to touch himself so badly, but he knew if he made any move to move his arm back, Vin would likely swat it away.

"Sabastian."

He looked over his shoulder at Vin, biting his lip as he asked whether he was ready to comply. Part of him wanted to say no, just to feel Vin spank his little ass some more, but he knew that would only drive himself crazy. With no way to stroke himself, it would just rile him up with no release. Granted, he could stroke himself with one of his appendages, but he had never done so before and he still didn't want Vin to see them.

"I don't need to bring them out to knock the tree over... but if you spank me any more, I'm going to go crazy." His hips squirmed, trying to rub against Vin's lap for any semblance of relief. He needed to be touched, needed it badly. He couldn't take it anymore and started trying to sneakily reach back with one of his arms, despite knowing that Vin might catch him.

--------------------------------------------------

"I love you too," he smiled back at her, watching as that talented hand landed on his knee. His eyes flicked back up to her face and he simply listened as she spoke excitedly about her rounds around the lake with Bowie. He loved when her eyes lit up and her voice couldn't contain her elation. To see her enjoying herself so much made him beam, his shoulders relaxing as she spoke.

Cora simply had a way of easing his worries, but mostly he was just glad she could have a little fun in these stressful times. She really deserved to escape from the doom and gloom of their situation. He didn't know that this was abnormal for her, to simply let herself be free. She did it so naturally that he just assumed that she did this normally.

"I wouldn't expect such a small snake to be that strong, even being a zombie-snake. But the way you two just zoomed along... Something from a cartoon, I swear." He grinned and reached out, brushing some of the sand out of her hair.

 

[Drobabes]

Across the concrete wall from Sayori, all was quiet. Quint was either asleep himself or not in his cell.

Tommy had been let off duty for a few hours after he had seen the commander. He was still expected to stay within a mile of the base in case they needed him, but for the moment they didn't, so he was free to have some downtime. He got the feeling he was being given some special treatment, getting his downtime a bit early this week. Briefly he thought of Jesse, but only because the memories of that office meeting were making his thoughts run rampant. He had no time to hang out with her right now, as much as he wanted to, but what he did need to do was go find her dad. He needed to start making plans immediately, but he needed her dad to be involved in those plans.

Making his way across the compound, he started looking for the man. He always had a bit of that straight backed soldier march in his step, but since it was supposed to be his down time, he let his shoulders relax just the smallest amount and an easy smile rest on his face.
______

"I don't need to bring them out to knock the tree over... but if you spank me any more, I'm going to go crazy."

His brown eyes saw him looking over his shoulder, but he didn't meet his gaze directly, instead still lingering on that plump little bottom. Most of the lovers he had taken over the years, the ones who let him show this more dominant side of himself, would have been crying or at least whining by this point. Those spanks he had delivered were meant to sting and he knew they weren't soft, so the fact that Sabastian wasn't crying or whining, combined with that breathless admission, let him know that he was going to have to change his tactics if he wanted to punish him more properly. Of course,

Smack!

That didn't mean he couldn't keep spanking him. In fact, spanking him, it seemed, might be a good way to lead into that punishment.

After his hand came down again on that right cheek, have seen Sabastians arm trying to sneak back, Vin reached over and moved both his arms behind his back so that he could capture his wrists and hold them with his larger calloused hand. Once that was done, he gripped his hip with his other hand and then parted his knees farther apart so that one leg was resting just above Sabastions groin, and the other was resting just under his thighs. Now that he was held like this, he couldn't just squirm and rub himself against Vins legs.

"You might not need them to move things, but you need to practice with them."

Smack smack!

Vin painted his other cheek red once more, making it glow even brighter and humming once again as he saw how nicely Sabastians creamy skin held onto the outlined shape of where his hand had hit.

"If you don't bring them out and practice properly today, not only is our deal going to be off,"

Smack!

"I'm going to keep you teetering on the edge all day and I'm not going to let you have any release."
______

"It was really, really fun! I don't know how he could be so strong either, but man, I almost felt like I was getting tugged behind one of those little jet boats. I almost want to do it again, but I think he's all tuckered out."

She got up on her feet and stretched for a moment, and then she looked over to the shady tree where he had been sitting.

"Should we get out of the sun for a minute?"

 

[Poprockz]

Sayori sighed, reaching down and taking a drink of water. She pulled the blanket off of herself to find that the swelling in her ankle had indeed gone down. In fact, the pain in general was lessened, and even though she had been forced to take it, she was grateful at least to not be in as much pain.

After calming herself, she snuggled back into her bed, closing her eyes once more and praying that she wouldn't continue to have such awful nightmares. She was soon sound asleep once more.

------------------------------------------------------

"...And that's why I want Dave to teach me how to make drinks."

"Jesse, you're barely 18. You need to be 21 for that."

"We're in an apocalyptic society dad. No one's going to blink an eye if I'm making drinks. I'm an adult after all. Anyway, I'm going to ask Dave what he thinks." Jesse said with a grin before jogging away.

Her dad simply threw his hands up and let out an exasperated sigh as he watched her leave. He shook his head before looking up and seeing Tommy almost marching across the compound. The man smiled, always happy to see him. Ever since he came to save Jesse and himself, he had confidence that not only could Tommy protect his little girl, but that he also had a courageous heart when it counted.

"Tommy!" He waived the boy over, wanting to check in on him. He had been working so much lately that he was a bit worried that they'd overwork the poor chap.

------------------------------------------------------

He knew it had been foolish to try to reach back, but he still let out a whimper of frustrated need when his arms were captured and held behind his back. His hips wiggled, trying to rub against Vin's lap when he felt Vin spread his own legs, preventing Sabastian's bulge from even being able to brush up against him.

The following spanks made him moan, the delicious pain of the smack sending a shiver down his spine. To be bent over Vin's lap, wrists held, ass punished like this made him so aroused, his cock throbbing hotly in his boxers.

"Our deal...?" Through his haze of arousal, he didn't recognize what Vin meant for a second until his eyes widened in realization and he sucked in a breath. Vin had promised that if they got some training in, that he would let Sabastian taste him. And yet, now that was on the line because Vin wanted to see his appendages. Worse still was the threat of being tortured with just enough pleasure to make him crazy with need, while withholding any means of release. Combined, he looked a bit at a loss as he contemplated such consequences.

There was no way he could keep going like this. At that moment, his sexual need outweighed his stubbornness, and he reluctantly knew he would have to give in to Vin's request.

"F-fine. I... I'll bring them out. Just please, please let me cum... and don't forget our deal." His voice was breathless and desperate as he admitted defeat.

From under his shirt, one of his appendages came out and slid upward on Vin's skin, the deep purple tentacle then gently rested against Vin's chest as though beseeching him. It was almost the same shade as his eye, though lacking any of the reflective properties.

---------------------------------------------

Damien looked over at Bowie, the little guy curled up under the tree and nodded. "I'm sure if you asked nicely, he'd do it for you again another day."

Getting up, he took her hand in his. "Yeah, let's just relax in the shade for a bit." He smiled and led her over to the tree. Once there, he sat down with his back against it, and his legs wide, patting in-between them as an invitation in case she wanted to sit there and lean back against him. He didn't mind getting wet from her damp clothing, just as long as he was able to feel the comforting weight of the woman against his chest.
