USAGI
Yeah, I
definitely can't live with him for four months, him being like this.
ORION
I should
have been more careful.
USAGI
Yeah, but
what's done is done
SIGYN
🎵And there's somebody for everyone🎵
ORION
Then if you
want this child gone, order me.
USAGI
I just told
you. Get rid of it.
ORION
You have to
make it an order.
EVRYN
THAT WAS AN
IMPERATIVE STATEMENT, YOU STUPID OAF.
MARIE
In some
Omegaverse settings, there is something called an “Alpha command” that forces
non-Alphas to obey them. I think that’s what Corri’s trying to demand, but
since she didn’t fucking explain any of that… Please pardon me while I seethe.
FREDDIE
This show is
so stupid.
EVRYN
Says the
tabloid reporter.
FREDDIE
Exactly.
USAGI
Fine. I
order you to get rid of it and damn, does this feel uncomfortable.
ORION
I'll be
right back. This won't take long. Can you… explain things to Illybrius. I don't
think he'll want to talk to me now.
USAGI
No, he's
pissed because one of his boyfriends hung up on him.
ORION
Wait here.
I'll be right back. We need to talk.
[enter
CINNAMON]
CIN
I'm back.
Where's Lee?
ILLYBRIUS
……
ORION
I'm sorry
about that. It was because of the child. It won't happen again now.
ILLYBRIUS
I don't
care.
NATHANIEL
It shouldn’t
have happened in the first place.
MARIE
Well, yeah,
because in a normal roleplaying relationship, you would have negotiated all
these things beforehand.
ORION
Let me make
it up to you, please?
ILLYBRIUS
Just keep
the spell from wearing out again.
ORION
Yes… My
Master.
EVRYN
And we’re
back to the normal disgusting fail!
FAUSTUS
Praise
Potaten. He’s my new god. He’s a potato.
ORION gets
down on his hands and knees in front of Illybrius.
ILLYBRIUS
kneels and hugs Orion
ILLYBRIUS
Ori, I'm
sorry, I was upset over something else. I shouldn't have taken it out on you.
ORION
Illybrius…
It's what I need. I enjoy it. Please.
ILLYBRIUS
Alright.
ORION
Thank you,
Kio.
ILLYBRIUS
What is it
that you want?
ORION
Whatever you
crave to give to me, my Master.
TOD
Give him a Jag
and a ticket to the opera, and tell him to enjoy his vacation.
SERENA
Please don’t
give him a Jag. I don’t want him to have any more in common with me than
absolutely necessary.
SIGYN
Give him a
tranq and put him to bed.
DÉSMODA
Please don’t
give him that, either. I don’t want him to have any more in common with my
Basement Boys than absolutely necessary.
NATHANIEL
… um, you don’t
want him locked in a basement and forced to perform for you?
DÉSMODA
No, because
he’d enjoy it too much, and I prefer when he’s suffering.
ILLYBRIUS
I'm going to
bed.
EPIPHANY
[Even
Illybrius is done with this shit.]
ORION
Your orders,
Master?
ILLYBRIUS
I-I'm sorry.
Maybe a little later, but I just need to be held.
ORION
*sigh* Come
here.
ILLYBRIUS
cuddles up to Orion
ORION holds
Illybrius close
ILLYBRIUS
nestles into Orion
ILLYBRIUS
I'm sorry
for being so weak.
ORION
You aren't
weak.
ILLYBRIUS
I wish I
were stronger. I never used to break down like this.
TOD
I believe
that may be the Corri-itus. Ah, that’s when you’re around someone so toxic for
so long that it degrades your personality into that of a nervous wreck. I’m
calling it Corri-itus because otherwise it would be anachronistic and I’m told
we’re to avoid those.
SERLEINA
Yeah, we’re supposed
to avoid anachronisms, but nobody really cares enough to.
ORION
We all break
sometimes, Kio.
ILLYBRIUS
I'll
rephrase: I never used to break down in front of others.
Rubéhaus
hung up on me because his family told him to. He's pussy-whipped. They need
only say "Jump" and he-- I'm sorry. I'm bitter because he didn't even
tell me why, after I asked.
ORION
You are a
strong person. I never would have come after you if you weren't. Because you
break down, it lets us know that, yes… You are alive like the rest of us, Kio.
EPIPHANY
[Translation:
“Stop having feelings, oh my GOSH!”]
[Also,
EXCUSE!?]
ORION
Oh, you’re
excused.
ILLYBRIUS
I do not
want to be like everybody else. I used to be strong.
ORION
You are
strong.
ILLYBRIUS
Ori…
everybody's so different from when I met them. I am different from when I first
came here.
ORION
This place
changes people. Most of the time for the better.
MARIE
DOUBT!
TOD
Si, Senor.
ILLYBRIUS
No… it's not
that.
ORION
Then tell
me, Pet.
EPIPHANY
zaps Orion
ILLYBRIUS
It's
transcendent of words.
ORION
In that
case, Pet--
EPIPHANY
zaps Orion
ORION
--let me
ease your pain. Let me be your comfort for now.
TOD
You are
quite literally the opposite of comforting.
ILLYBRIUS
When I first
fell in love with you, you broke my heart every day.
SIGYN
I know that
feeling.
ILLYBRIUS
I'm glad you're
not so cruel anymore, but it seems sometimes almost as though you've… lost
something. You've changed drastically. It's merely odd.
ORION
I gave up
part of my demon side for you. That's why. Usagi made me see that I was slowly
killing you. So I gave it up.
ILLYBRIUS
Usagi made
you see? How?
ORION
It's hard to
explain.
ILLYBRIUS
When I told
you I loved you, I hadn't meant to say anything.
It slipped
out, and when you said I didn't need to love you…
Of course, I
hadn't been expecting you to say that you loved me, but something happened.
ORION
I… When you
said you loved me, I thought you were just saying it, but when I broke your
heart, I realized I had a chance at love and I took it.
When I kept
hurting you… Usagi said I was going to end up killing you, and that was when I
realized I needed to do something.
But if you
want me to go back to the "wat" I was… I can go get what I need.
ILLYBRIUS
I never tell
anybody I love them unless I mean it. Of course, it's not always the kind of
love they think I mean.
SIGYN
Big mood.
ILLYBRIUS
I was merely
curious, my Ori.
ORION
If you want
me the way I was… please tell me now.
ILLYBRIUS
No. I don't
like the idea of influencing people to change to suit me. I will love you no
matter how you are. I just want your happiness and the happiness of the others
I love.
ORION
But I did. I
changed so as not to hurt you.
ILLYBRIUS
I know.
ORION
I… want to
be… anything you need me to be for you. I want to be your friend, your lover,
your slave.
LENA
Can you not?
STRAWBERRY
Can you yes?
ORION
Will you let
me do that?
ILLYBRIUS
I will let
you be my friend and lover.
ORION
Slave in the
bed, please?
ILLYBRIUS
We'll switch
every now and then.
ORION
Deal. Are
you better now, Pet?
EPIPHANY
zaps Orion
ILLYBRIUS
*purrs*
ORION
Good.
ORION kisses
Illybrius.
ILLYBRIUS
I love my
Ori.
EVRYN takes
a shot
ORION
Lri erik ben
yut.
ILLYBRIUS
I'll assume
that's something good.
ORION
I love you
too.
ILLYBRIUS
Call me
yours?
ORION
Jinv.
ILLYBRIUS
Uh… Never
mind.
ORION
Jinv. Mine.
ILLYBRIUS
I know, but
I'd meant something different. It's not important.
ORION
Tell me.
ORION kisses
Illybrius.
ILLYBRIUS
It's not
important.
ORION
Please?
ILLYBRIUS
nuzzles Orion
ORION
*sigh* You
win this time.
ILLYBRIUS
I was
getting ready to, actually. It's just difficult for me to find words.
ORION
Sorry. I
have little patience.
ILLYBRIUS
I know. So
do I. I said, "I love my Ori," and I… meant for you to respond in
kind.
ILLYBRIUS
blushes
It's silly.
ORION
I did. I…
did it again. Damn it. I said, "I love my Pet" in Dark Glyphs.
EPIPHANY
zaps Orion
ORION
Sorry.
ORION kisses
Illybrius
ILLYBRIUS
kisses back and nuzzles Orion again
ORION
At least
you're better. I'm happy now.
ILLYBRIUS
I am, too.
I'm still mildly upset that Rubéhaus hung up on me at his grandmother's whim.
ORION
Corri said
he did the same to her.
ILLYBRIUS
Corri isn't
his boyfriend.
ORION
No. I know
that. They… are more kindred souls than siblings.
SERENA
That is
probably the least helpful thing you could have said just then.
ILLYBRIUS
Don't ever
say that in front of Cinnamon, mind you. She's more territorial than I am.
ORION
Yes, sir.
Ow…
ILLYBRIUS
Are you
alright?
EVRYN
Yes, he's
just causing drama because you "scolded" him.
TOD
That’s why this feels familiar.
ORION
I will be. I
just need to… my body has a habit to bleed after aborting.
EVRYN
That's
literally everyone. You're not special.
SIGYN
I know,
right?
ORION
It's normal.
I just don't like the feeling.
SIGYN
Who does?
ILLYBRIUS
Poor thing.
ORION
I'm used to
it.
SIGYN
You're USED
TO sparkly miscarriages.
EVRYN
He's an
Enzeru. Why are you surprised?
SIGYN
I neither
know, nor desire to know, where he's bleeding from.
EVRYN
Probably his
arse.
SIGYN
I’m sorry,
is there a part of “I don’t want to know” that’s confusing to you?
EVRYN
… Apology
accepted!
CIN
Lee, don't
bother. I heard. I’m leaving him. He knows better. He knows not to just leave
without saying why, and he ought to know by now not to act like his family's
doormat. If he can't do that, he's not strong enough for me. Besides that, I
cannot stand the thought of him being anyone else's ✨soulmate✨.
ORION
I didn't say
anything about a soulmate. Corri already has hers.
CIN
Kindred
soul, soulmate, it means the same to me.
ORION
Then learn
to listen.
(BRRRRRRIIIIIING!)
CIN
I need
someone who-- someone like-- That isn't what I mean.
ORION
You are
stupid.
(BRRRRRRIIIIIING!)
FREDDIE
Gee. Tell
her how you really feel.
CIN
I can listen
perfectly.
EPIPHANY
[Speaking of
not listening, would you pick up your damn phone, Onion?]
ONION
I've already
been ripped a new one today. Answering the pot would be overkill.
AHRRY
DIIIIIIIID
SOMEBODY SAY POT?
SERLEINA
Oh my god,
Ahrry, it's not even that kind of pot!
