#ty arson :]

[lu-sn]

In the foyer of the minor family mansion, looming large and ominous against dark paneled wood, is a floor-to-ceiling portrait of Gun.

This is Pete’s first time seeing it. He must have walked by it earlier without realizing; he wouldn’t have noticed it on their way out either if Macau hadn’t come to a screeching halt in front of it.

In the portrait, Gun sits tall in an ornate chair, smoldering cigar hanging from his fingertips, expression brimming with arrogance. The narcissism of it — the centering of this house’s power on its patriarch, with his sons nowhere to be seen — is not unusual for a mafia mogul like Gun. Pete loathes him for it anyway.

Pete glances at Macau, whose gaze is fixed on his father’s face, and then down at where Macau is thumbing restlessly at the lighter in his palm. The gesture is familiar; the lighter is Vegas’s. It was the only item the doctors found tucked away in the tatters of Vegas’s clothing, and Macau has not relinquished it since. Pete has numbed himself to the sight and sound of it flicking open and shut, matching time with the beeping of Vegas’s heart monitor as he and Macau keep vigil on opposite sides of Vegas’s hospital bed.

The click of the lighter echoes in the cavernous foyer, now, sharp and eerie.

“Macau,” Pete blurts out. He hefts the box cradled in his arms. “I’ll go put your things in the car.” And when that earns him no response, he mumbles, “I’ll be back.”

He staggers out of the foyer and down the front steps to the car, leaving Macau to his thoughts.

Pete’s own mind, fractured and worn from weeks of poor sleep, swirls with thoughts of dead fathers. They leave themselves behind in empty houses and littered beer bottles, in stacks of yellowed photos and stacks of debt, in bruises, old and new. Their specters are impossible to shake, even without massive portraits to contend with.

Pete hopes Vegas won’t keep the portrait if he… when he wakes up. The love sons have for their bastard fathers is a curse, but Vegas will not see it that way, not for a long time. Vegas will want to keep the shadow of his father close. He will not be able to help himself after a lifetime of chasing Gun’s approval.

Better the shadow of his father than the real thing, Pete thinks darkly.

He slams the trunk of the car shut, turns back towards the mansion and then, even through his daze, the scent of it is thick enough to choke — smoke.

Fire.

“Macau?” Pete yells, sprinting up the steps and rushing back into the foyer. Alarms blare in his head: Macau is in danger. He has to keep Macau safe for Vegas. “Something’s wrong, we have to get out—”

He skids to a stop.

Macau looks over his shoulder at Pete, face inscrutable, silhouetted as he is by the burning, blazing portrait behind him. The lighter glints as he flips it round and round between his fingers.

The flames crawl up the portrait, eating away at its domineering presence, incinerating Gun into worthless ashes at his son’s feet.

i hope you have a lovely afternoon <33

WIP Wednesday (6/18) | Arsonist Neil / Firefighter Andrew AU (Part 314)

"Oh, good." Andrew says simply. "I answered you with a text but I suppose you haven't seen it. There is no occasion. I just want to eat something nice and look at your face while I do it."

The confirmation that Andrew has no idea about the significance of this day makes Neil let go of the washing machine. "Just plain ol' dinner then, huh?"

"Yeah. Well... Maybe something else. If it's not too cold by the time we're done." Andrew answers, a hint of a lilt to his voice. All of Neil's ridiculous nerves are forgotten at the sound and he shrugs out from under the panic he had piled on himself.

"Oh yeah?"

"Yeah." Andrew answers, voice still low and syrupy. Something is said on the other end of the line, something not meant for Neil. Andrew huffs. "Give me a fucking second." He says harshly, then to Neil: "Are we on or not?"

"Yeah. We are. Very on."

"Good. Gotta go now." Andrew tells him. "Fire calls."

Neil knows it would be inappropriate to ask for the address to whatever is burning down, but he does consider it. Only for a second. Then he decides he shouldn't be showing up to fires that aren't his, just to watch Andrew in action. "Uh. Text me the name of the restaurant?" He says instead.

"Sure thing. See you later, Abram." Andrew hangs up and Neil drops into one of the hard plastic chairs in the corner, trying to resist the urge to get his lighter out.

What is the matter with him? Well, sure, the arson and all that. But getting bent out of shape over a date in the calendar? Concocting ridiculous scenarios wherein Andrew, his only anything, betrays his trust? All because of something as stupid as a day? Neil shakes his head, he's a fool. He needs a cigarette.

Or rather, the smoke. That will fix him. 

He abandons his clothes and goes outside to watch a cigarette burn down to his fingertips. And then, he is perfectly alright.

Ty! Answering for Loki!

What is your f/o's favorite thing about summer?

Probably swimming pools. Devil fruit users can’t swim, but he can just sit in a large pool that goes up to his waist and cool off! He also likes summer because I wear bikinis occasionally 🙈

There's the ice cream truck! What do you and your f/o get? Or do you prefer other treats?

I usually get a fudgesicle and he typically gets a few popsicles!

Let's build a campfire! Describe what building a campfire with your f/o looks like. Do you guys struggle? How does the fire come together? What does the setup look like after the fact?

Oh it’s gonna be a huge ass fire. He gets actual trees instead of just logs and we gather a bunch of dry leaves and kindling and such. Once we have it set up, we roast marshmallows and hot dogs and snuggle 😊

Nope 🙃

"An.. egg!" The sinner gasps loudly as Lucifer hands her the small white object. Between grey hands, Black Star squints down at the egg, pondering what to do with it. She could make a delicious fried egg, or a hard-boiled egg, or make a small helping of scrambled eggs.

But! There was the chance that a tiny life-form was developing inside. Wanting to be sure that wasn't the case, Black Star held up the egg to one of her large ears, trying to get a listen for any activity. A couple twitches of her ear later and the sinner didn't hear anything, which meant.. "aha, lunch time!" Beaming with joy, Black Star thanks Lucifer and scurries off to make a hard-boiled egg.
