Vergil's heart game r2

You feel weak, your body won't move no matter how you try, and you are falling, away from everything you know and love. Away from everything you need to accomplish. If you could just reach out, maybe you could hold on to it, claw your way back. But it's a useless endeavour, you fall unconscious, and your mind goes blank except for poetry and a familiar voice.


O mother Enitharmon, wilt thou bring forth other sons?
To cause my name to vanish, that my place may not be found,
For I am faint with travail,
Like the dark cloud disburden'd in the day of dismal thunder.

My roots are brandish'd in the heavens, my fruits in earth beneath
Surge, foam and labour into life, first born and first consum'd!
Consumed and consuming!
Then why shouldst thou, accursed mother, bring me into life?


You wake on the ground in a cave, cold, wet, and sticky. It smells of rotting flesh. Your objective is clear, but you can't recall a name or face. Nothing else about your memory of him is changed, but for some reason the name "Vergil" just won't come to you, and you couldn't describe how he looks if your life depended on it. But at least your body starts to respond to your will, slowly regaining enough strength to carry on.

I am here because I wish to be my dear. Not as your obedient subject.

But you already know that.

[He will lift his hand and kiss the Qliphoth roots gently, never taking his eyes off Urizen.]

I will not let you be lonely. Deny the feeling all you like. You may be as possessive as you wish. For you are mine as well.

What

the fuck

Turns out the way to avoid being murdered by a demon king is to shock and confuse him so much he can't do anything but turn those gears trying to understand it?

"Loneliness...is but a human weakness. I know no such thing." His voice is very soft. Quiet comparatively too.

It is not limited to humans. Loneliness is what those with a heart feel. You may reject it as weakness and push it away, deny it even. I do not mind.

[He lays his head on Urizen's shoulder, radiating smugness but also reaching to twine his fingers with Urizen's. Quite relaxed for being in a big bad Demon King's lap.]

As I said. I will not let you be lonely. Any part of you.

What has he ever done to deserve this? He is a good big bad demon king? Why must he be leaned on? But evidently he doesn't mind too much since he still does nothing about it. Or the fingers lacing with his. Though he looks at them long and hard.

"Humans, whatever you call yourself, it matters not. No heart beats in my chest." Still too soft for him.

[Divine punishment for demonic sins or something. Or maybe just a clingy ancient boyfriend. Take your pick.]

That's fine. You can use mine.

[Because as the possessive feelings leaked from Urizen he'll offer his own affection through aether and soul.]

There are small pangs of terror and worthlessness that are like a dream you wake from only able to chase the contents of it just as they fade, but the sense lingers. Even, in fact, loneliness. Your own feelings make them spill out before he can shove them back in.

"You offer your blood so freely?"

Eh close enough to what you meant right.

[personal profile] temperedinpride 2021-01-30 01:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[He strokes the hand he holds with his thumb, laughing a little.]

You are not allowed to kill me. It would distress you too much. You may have some of my blood though, if you desire it.

But you know that is not what I mean.

[He doesn't let up with the gentle affection, chasing down such feelings to sooth them.]
auguryofinnocence: (Default)

Re: URIZEN

[personal profile] auguryofinnocence 2021-01-30 01:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course it wouldn't distress him? Impossible.

"I know not."

That killing you would be totally fine is definitely the reason that when one of the roots with a needle on the end leaps up and spears your stomach, he doesn't let it go too far. Sucking up a good amount of blood, but not enough to really harm you.

It does excite him though.

[How does powerful ancient godlike mage blood feel probably as great as in dreams, maybe better, who knows

He does hiss, squeezing Urizen's hand too tight. Not from fear or distress, a little bit from the pain. Though the bloodloss isn't exactly his favorite thing. Just, slightly uncomfortable but handling it.

Not shying from letting Urizen just feel it too. Both his discomfort and the fondness that's much stronger than it. Even the amusement at the excitement.]

You enjoy that. But you do know I meant I would share my feelings with you didn't you? Not that I mind sharing my blood just as well.

Re: URIZEN

[personal profile] auguryofinnocence 2021-01-30 02:07 pm (UTC)(link)
It probably feels absolutely amazing. Which is why it gets such excitement out of him, already used to sitting here soaking up regular blood all day. And why it's tempting to keep going after more.

But he is part of Vergil. And all of Vergil loves you, unfortunately.

"What good would your feelings do me? I would far prefer this."

And yet these particular feelings do interest him, so he reaches for them.

[personal profile] temperedinpride 2021-01-30 02:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[He welcomes Urizen to explore if he likes, eyes closing as he strokes his hand. Turning it over to access soft demon paw pads to squish with his fingertips. He deserves this with a Qliphtoth root in his stomach.]

Oh don't be difficult.

[His amusement, fondness. And the possessive arrogance that has him in Urizen's lap in the first place. Protectiveness. The desire to keep Vergil's heart safe and in good shape. Love. Appreciation. Greed. Determination. Fear of being alone. Even the fact that he thinks Urizen is attractive as any other part of Vergil. It's all open for him.]

[personal profile] auguryofinnocence 2021-01-30 02:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey those aren't the feelings he wanted. He liked the discomfort. These just cause discomfort in him. It's terrible! None of these are things he knows what to do with. He barely even understands them, if at all. Attractive.....????

But it keeps him distracted from the toying with his fingers.
temperedinpride: (n259)

Re: URIZEN

[personal profile] temperedinpride 2021-01-30 02:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well the pain is there too but he doesn't really care about it. He can have that as well though if he wants! There's just gentle amusement and fondness as he plays with his fingers though.]

You need not be so uncomfortable. I would not hurt or abandon you.

Re: URIZEN

[personal profile] auguryofinnocence 2021-01-31 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
"You could never hope to harm me." He's fully back to booming arrogance. And it is the pain that he likes. If you want some feelings out of him, and some of Vergil's that are new or at least not so common for you to come across...well he loves making someone suffer.

A shame it's so little in you. But he'll take it anyway, twist the root's speared end in. It's just exciting and comforting to him to show someone they're weaker than him and he could have them absolutely helpless. Assurance to himself that he's too powerful to be the one in that position anymore, as much as a desire to inflict the same pain he's had on others.

"I would need only a few cruel words to destroy you."

[personal profile] temperedinpride 2021-01-31 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
[He winces again and grabs the root. Not alarmed but trying to keep it still.

The sadism is interesting though. He doesn't condemn it or dislike it. He's not thrilled by it but it's just part of Vergil.]

True. Yet it would be convincing me they were meant that is the trouble. I know how you and Vergil both run from what you long for.

Surely making others hurt in the same ways he's had to will make his own trauma better right?? Right. Yeah.

"I run from nothing, anything I desire is mine to take as I wish."

You know, like your blood. But the root does retract finally.

[personal profile] temperedinpride 2021-01-31 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
If I thought letting you hurt me would not hurt Vergil I would happily allow you to pursue that comfort.

[He presses his fingers to the wound, aether glowing in his hand as he heals it.]

I am not opposed to such twisted thoughts. They are somewhat natural in your position.

[personal profile] temperedinpride 2021-01-31 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
You. Specifically. I have felt your fear and loneliness. And the sadism is genuine certainly. But so is your longing.

You do not need to reject it, or deny it to me. But I will not press. My goal is to give you company. To assure you you are not forgotten or unloved. Defeat has not made you worthless. I hope some day you may come to realize it has only strengthened you to become whole.

He's silent, turning that over without acknowledging it. Probably as expected. Or about as good as can be expected really, at least it's not anger or denial.

Instead after a while the roots pull you in, folding around you much like they do over his own body, but specifically to keep you bound to him.

Re: URIZEN

[personal profile] temperedinpride 2021-01-31 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
[He squeezes Urizen's hand and if the roots allow, cuddles in, arm wrapping around him, keeping hold of his hand. And not struggling at being bound this way. It's actually making him blush again. The intention to hold him close both endearing and embarrassing for how he likes it.]

Re: URIZEN

[personal profile] auguryofinnocence 2021-01-31 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe...maybe you can cuddle a giant demon.

Yes in fact you can. His other hand lifts, and lands on your head, but even though it's heavy that's the worst of it. His fingers and claws thread in your hair. Unfortunately Vergil is soft.
temperedinpride: (n172)

Re: URIZEN

[personal profile] temperedinpride 2021-01-31 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
[Mission success, cuddles achieved. He practically purrs at the hand in his hair and lifts the other hand to his lips to kiss soft palm. Just relaxing against Urizen like he belongs here.

Because, doesn't he?]

Re: URIZEN

[personal profile] auguryofinnocence 2021-01-31 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
It's just nice to know someone is going to accept every part of him. Vergil likes being a demon, so he doesn't have a problem with Urizen. Even if he doesn't need all the things that side represents so much anymore. He knows it's a problem for his family and the things he did are objectively bad. But he doesn't feel guilty? Obviously not something he can normally say though.

And he hates having to curate anything for others. So. This feels very nice. It's probably letting you get away with far more than should be. Congratulations on truly melting Vergil's heart, even Urizen letting you kiss. Guess this is yours, that's the way it is.

A spindly little tree grows up out of the ground with long reaching branches that stretch out to you. One of them stops right in front of your face and grows a single blood red flower. Probably actually made of blood. But it looks and feels normal! For you.
