` ` blood — strange man . man in woods — you okay strange man ? ` `
he was almost certain he was alone out here, but he was wrong. so, so wrong. a scream left him when the other's presence was known. ” uhm _ uh. yeah. yeah im fine. ”
@minimoth
` ` holland — there you are , what took you so .. holland ? woah hey — is that — blood ? ` `
◇《 @sleuthhound 》 scrambling around , coraline was silent as she came over , her paws overgrown with leaves as she ripped them out of her fur and began wrapping the smaller wounds with the apple leaves , the blood thankfully sealed the leaves to the wounds . ` ` okay .. okay up we go . let ' s get you to the doctor .. ` `
the moment he was sat down on the couch a groan of pain left him and he laid his head back, pinching his nose. “ i think he broke my nose. twisted my arm but i didn't hear anything snap. ” he explained, although he sounded very drowsy.
@crimecrisp
◇《 @sleuthhound 》 the color was quick to drain from the woman ' s face as she rushed forward to catch him if he fell . her claws holding onto him as she led him to the couch . ` ` oh god — let — let me get the first aid . patch you up with what i can and then we ' re going to the hospital . ` `
` ` pf — haha ! holland ! i ' m trying to cook — haha ! stop it ! ` `
“ well, / excuse / me. you should see the other guys after i rough em up. they need a lot more than their hands wrapped. ” even as she returned to cooking he followed, wrapping his arms around her waist and resting his chin on top of her head.
@crimecrisp
◇《 @sleuthhound 》 ` ` tell that to the amount of times I've had to wrap up your hands . ` ` she grinned before slipping away from him and turning her attention back to cooking .
once he was pulled up to his feet he dusted himself off, as if there was truly anything to dust off in the first place. the little act was dropped when her lips met his and he tilted his head into it. “ oh, shush. i hardly have to get hands on.ᐟ ”
@crimecrisp
` ` i — i ' m okay .. just a little fatigued is all . ` `
◇《 @sleuthhound 》 ` ` i can work with that . ` ` she hummed , nursing in her water once more as she crossed her legs .
“ okay well when that sprout on top of your head starts looking all droopy that's when you stop and take a rest.ᐣ that's easier to gauge. ”
@crimecrisp
◇《 @sleuthhound 》 she frowned gently . ` ` my body doesn ' t respond to the human instincts very well . as i am not whole human . my other genes sort of .. adapt . i mean i have tree roots growing within me for heaven ' s sake . ` ` she laughs .
` ` i think your daughter likes me !! did you see how she smiled ? ` `
◇《 @sleuthhound 》 she nodded in understanding . leaning into him gently .` ` thank you . for choosing me . ` `
“ you'll figure it out. that's the thing about family all of them are different. there's no guide to what a family dynamic should or shouldn't be. ”
@crimecrisp
◇ ;; / hi hunn! Two things , do you have discord, and are you okay if I send a short spam for youu
` ` .. you .. really don ' t see me as a monster ? why ? ` `
◇《 @sleuthhound 》 the kisses went to his jaw after a moment . ` ` you ' ll be safe and loved for as long as i ' m here .. ` ` she whispered as she pressed her kisses down his neck , soothing . comforting . ` ` i promise . ` `
as she settled his hands rested on her waist, almost as if to stabilize her entirely. but once she was straddling him they wouldn't move at all as he melted right into the soft, sweet kiss.
@crimecrisp
◇《 @sleuthhound 》 coraline grinned more as she shifted herself to straddle his waist instead . cupping his face in her claws as those teal eyes of hers dilated with utter devotion . she pressed her lips softly into his , her tail swaying and ears twitching .
` ` march .. ? march ! what are you doing here , sugar ?! i know it looks bad but i ' m fine . there were men here at the club looking for you , i — didn ' t tell them anything. ` `
if his heart didn't feel as if it was going to beat out of his chest it certainly did now. god. there was no sign of sleep for him quite yet however he made himself as comfortable as he could against her. “ i cannot thank you enough. ”
@crimecrisp
◇《 @sleuthhound 》 coraline ' s face softened as she nodded . ` ` of course , sugar .. ` ` she stayed quiet after that , her eyes glancing up as her ears twitched , watching herself in the vanity mirror for a moment , her dilated eyes slowly narrowing , her arms squeezed around him gently . a low chitter settling in her chest . much like noises a racoon would make .
“ don't call yourself that. if i could live in a secluded spot myself i would. less people. less noise. ” he'd shiver slightly when her fingers carded through sandy blonde hair. “ thank you. i really owe ya one. ”
@crimecrisp
" easy there. no need to be poin' guns. I was just lookin' around. " probably not expecting to convince the detective, especially not with this situation. a masked man in complete black clothing wasn't exactly the appropriate type you want around sensitive meeting locations for the underground dealings.
the guy definitely looked like a proper scumbag. hardened and not really all that pliable yet. scoffing at the questions like it was a personal insult. that attitude didn't seem to stay long. hard to be smug when your nose gets broken. a gloved hand catching the chair so it didn't fall all the way back before steadying it once more. " my bad, actually tried to hold back on that one. " he never liked pulling a punch, but the spider was stronger than any normal guy. he needed this guy at least alive to answer the questions. " why don't we try again? " the guy seemed to take a moment to refocus, like he nearly got his lights knocked out just from that. " t-the he'll are you?! "
standing aside holland was thrilled, it might be dumb but he's always wanted to have a questioning like this. all serious. once he was given the floor holland stood beside them, hands on his hips. “ what brings you here tonight.ᐣ this is an oddly specific place. tell me the truth. i don't want any lies or he'll take over and believe me when i say you don't want that. ”
@chainsmoke
it was unsettling how strong the spider was. another rwason why he was treated like a monster rather than just another guy. with one hand he gripped the front of the question chest, bunching up the clothes as he pulled him free from the floor and push them onto the chair. giving it a good spin as the grey/black webbing basically caccooned him to the chair. like he weighed nothing at all. " alright bub, let's try and be civil first, I suppose - " he let the detective have his shot at questions before skipping to his personal fun part.
` ` well look who it is !! mr march , and you don ' t have that file of yours , are you here to visit lil ol me or do you have more questions ? ` `
◇《 @sleuthhound 》 and with that she got to work , as she did so , she began speaking . ` ` i know i may not .. have the skills you do but .. ` ` she turned fo face him . ` ` i have some skills . perhaps i could help you a bit more ? ` ` she questioned before fully turning and sliding the drink towards him gently .
“ something hard. it's been a week. surprise me i trust your judgement. ” march responded with a slight nodding of his head. it was so much more than just a case now.
@crimecrisp
◇《 @sleuthhound 》 with a fanged smile , that cute little gap between her teeth . she sat up straight from the counter . ` ` can i get you anything , sugar ? we have a wild variety . ` ` she fixed her double slit dress and stepped back a bit to playfully signal a gloved hand across the back wall . her boa falling over her arms .
