We were sitting and discussing how underrated hybrids and shifters are. And the idea just took off. I really love the plot where Max is a shark. Specifically a little lemon shark with a pinkish back.
One day, before the Mexican Grand Prix, Max decides to go for a swim. And he encounters a group of divers on an excursion. One of them is Daniel — who has always said he's afraid of sharks. (Originally, in this idea, the key thing for me was that Max is a shark. I took a long time choosing, but I settled on Daniel because he's afraid of them — even though I've already done a similar thing with Max as a dog hybrid, this has a completely different vibe!)
Max sees them surface, where the guide explains that lemon sharks are friendly, basically like dogs (Daniel clearly doesn't see that as a plus). They dive, they watch the sharks. Max starts chasing other sharks away from Daniel so the experience isn't traumatic for him.
Daniel finds this increasingly amusing and gradually stops being afraid. Max circles nearby, afraid to approach — until Daniel decides to make contact. There are special gloves for petting sharks, and Daniel and the instructor decide to try petting one of them. (Max won't admit he pushed all the other sharks away, but he did.). Daniel starts to relax more and more — because this shark is so funny and reminds him of Max somehow. He decides to try petting this one specifically.
And so they spend several hours just enjoying this — Max not aggressively, but possessively, chasing everyone else away while Daniel scratches his side. Then they part ways. Back in human form, Daniel — talking to a completely melted Max, who's been softened by hours of being petted — tells him how he conquered his fear of sharks. Only of one specific shark, but that's fine.
Daniel decides to go there every day until the Grand Prix, while he has time — and actively invites Max, who keeps making excuses to refuse.
Almost a week passes like this. Max is deeply content but also exhausted — he's never used his secondary form this much before.
Then the two of them are in a hotel room, messing around, chatting — when Max starts getting distracted. At some point, unconsciously, he starts nuzzling under Daniel's arm — just like he did as a shark. Suddenly he realizes: he's lying across Daniel's lap, and Daniel is petting him quite firmly. Max has his fin and small tail out.
He flinches, wanting to disappear, to deal with his shame — when Daniel's hot, large hand presses down on his shoulder blades, holding him in place.
Max blushes, realizing he's been lying there without a shirt or pants — and that Daniel seems to have taken them off himself.
Then Daniel says something like: 'You know, I thought I was imagining how similar you two were. But then I realized — that bull stripe on your back looks a lot like your birthmark.'
Max is silent, hiding his face in his hands. Daniel flips him over so Max is sitting on his lap, face to face.
'Not to mention how useless you've been all these days — suspiciously similar to how a certain little lemon shark reacted. She loved being petted so much that even barely moving, she'd still crawl into my hands.' As he says this, he starts pressing firmly on Max's trembling body — which reacts intensely, especially since he only shifted back from shark form an hour ago.
'It's amazing how sensitive you are — and so greedy.' By this time, his hand has stopped over Max's underwear, where a distinct wet spot has formed.
Max starts whining, his tail moving in heavy strokes — until Daniel puts his second hand there too, massaging the base. Max moans, not knowing whether he wants to press into the hand on his cock or the one on his tail.
In the end, Daniel keeps stimulating him — while also licking the peaks of his nipples. Max's body won't stop trembling, and very salty tears run from his eyes. Daniel grins, acting even more assertively — while Max begs, breathless, for more.
And he comes on Daniel's lap — finally regaining enough control to shift back into human form. Max expects an awkward conversation. But instead, Daniel grabs his ass, pulling him closer so Max is sitting right on his dick.
With a greedy, wide smile, Daniel says: 'Now we can continue.'
