@mercurous was led astray
‘”Unfuckingbelievable,” Amusement alit in poppy colored as soft chuckle let his lips, voice reserved for the space between him and his surprised guest.
Qrow sits with patience reserved for rare occasions and this most certainly called for it. The balls on this kid to stroll up and plop himself down in the empty seat across his table. He is far from unrecognizable to Qrow. Vivid recollection from his time at the Vytal Tournament and the trauma it induced to his niece. Mercury Black and it’s eerie the similarities that run deep between them. Two individuals trained to be killers and not a record of their existence exists.
Invisible to the world and yet, most dangerous.
Qrow is bad luck and unless they were looking to fuck, most stayed out of his way. A preferred preference on his part. No mouth for small talk, only smack and then some.
He leans forward, legs uncrossed as he tipped his glass of whiskey neat this way and that. Lips chewed to hell and back curled in amusement and Qrow spoke hushed, patronizing in every way, “I don’t think you’re old enough for this ride, kid.”
Alcohol is hot on his breath and there is no questioning if Qrow is sober or not. He is shit faced and the night has barely begun. Little effort put in hiding the fact. Like a trained killer isn’t sitting before him. He’s seen the way this kid moved in Haven. Heard tale of Marcus Black. Met him once if not more. No stranger to the stores and rumors. Not an ounce of fear in his eyes as he tipped his glass back. Downs it remains with easy and Qrow is quick to call for another.
“And put it on his tab, will ya?” He laughed, gesturing to Mercury, winking at his soon to be murderer.
It was the least he could do while he sat in silence. Invading Qrow’s personal space and privacy. He had the right to drink himself stupid without interference. Grant it the sight wasn’t so bad for his eyes.
There are worse things he could be looking at.
“So, you gonna fuck me or you gonna fuck me, kid?” Qrow asked, sat back once more and already, he’s swirling his next drink around.
mercury was just about as happy to be there as qrow was to see him, which is to say, not very. winding through bar tables and passing strange faces felt more like a job than anything he'd done in the last several months, the stink of alcohol permeating quicksilver's very bones. he hated this. sent on a mission to help track down the girl with the silver eyes, he figured he needed to track down her shitfaced uncle first — the man was always protecting her, it seemed. and just like silver's good for nothing father, qrow still managed to do his job semi-decently while under the influence. for a moment, mercury wondered if qrow had known marcus, if he'd known about mercury before the tournament, but he brushed the thought aside. it wasn't worth pondering in the least bit.
when he'd sat down across from the older man, he simply watched, unspeaking, as qrow swirled his glass and spewed condescending flirtations across the table. gunmetal eyes flickered back and forth between qrow's own scarlet hues, and mercury huffed, waving down the bartender for himself. "water." he spoke simply, holding eye contact with qrow as he ordered, and as soon as the bartender brought it to him, he leaned back in his seat. he kept his stance relaxed, or as relaxed as he could be while surrounded by drunks on every side, somewhat slouched against the back of the chair, legs apart, one foot up on the chair leg. rather than drink the water handed to him, he took the mixing straw from it and twirled it between his fingers, still watching qrow intently.
"so," he finally spoke, a note of disgust in his voice, "you're qrow branwen. finally a proper introduction." a pause. "you make a pretty nasty first impression, old man." he gave an easy smirk, taking in the disgruntled nature of qrow's position, and he shrugged. "good thing i can work with nasty." he wondered whether he should get to his point or if he needed to sidle up to the huntsman a little bit more in order to get information from him. instinct told him the latter was in order.
putting one mechanical foot up on the edge of the seat right between qrow's legs, the assassin stuck the straw in his mouth, rolling it over his tongue piercing as if bored out of his mind. "here. let me make it easy for you. you get to decide how this evening pans out, and whether or not you get to walk the face of remnant come tomorrow. sounds simple enough, right?" mercury of all people knew not to underestimate a man based on how much alcohol he's consumed, but he took his chance to give qrow a vague choice — this interaction could go smoothly and mercury would walk away with the information he wants, or things could get real ugly real fast. the choice was branwen's.
"so what'll it be? the easy route or the hard one?"
[ father ] tell me ———— DO WE GET WHAT WE DESERVE?
HEY SO THAT EPISODE FUCKED ME UP AND NOW I SUDDENLY CARE ABOUT RWBY AGAIN

if yang was even remotely close to the beast of her namesake , she would have lunged &. mauled the light from his eyes the very moment mercury spoke up , but she’s not. an exhale of smog brings semblance of calm to otherwise boiling veins , light grey at the start , blackened at the end in a fashion similar to a forest going up in flames. a growl lingers in the back of xiao long’s throat. scathing eyes narrow &. the fingers of prosthetic curl &. clench &. collide in a way that creates a subtle yet equally annoying ‘ screech ‘. easy , xiao long. he’s trying to edge her on , wring these intense emotions resulting in explosion forth in some sick &. twisted display of sadism , &. yang refuses. maybe as a student in beacon she would have fell for such things at the risk of her own life , but she’s smarter. she’s risen from the ashes of a tragedy that was meant to destroy her , defied all the odds in a flurry of strength &. determination greater than anything mercury could ever dream to throw at her.
❝ why do you care again ? ❞ yang hisses , a venom dripping acrid from silver forged tongue something corrosive &. designed for the metals of mercury alone. there’s a kind of pride to be had knowing she’s gone through so much change &. he’s still that conniving little bastard from their vytal match : all confidently smug grins , cadence like nails on a chalkboard , save the ending where the world collapses around yang while he leaves without consequence. her shoulders roll &. in an instant between a pocket of silence shall yang click ember celica in an act of warning. challenge. i have sharp teeth too , i know how to use them. ❝ if you’re trying to make me angry , you’re doin’ a shit job at it. ❞ annoyed is more like it. ❝ i don’t think any of us could’a stopped what was happening even if we tried ‘an it sucked , but i spent too much time sulking about it to turn back now when one of the main culprits decides to run his mouth. y’haven’t changed.❞ empty shells of loaded rounds fall around her feet. you want a fight ? come &. get it.
steel eyes narrowed, just slightly, and quicksilver's gaze followed every new movement with a hint of caution — though he poked and prodded with his words, he could see in yang a sort of growth that he didn't dare underestimate. whereas before, she was easily provoked, and uncontrollably angry, now she gave off an air of control whether she harbored the same anger or not. some aspect of this truth intrigued mercury; he wondered, for a moment, what this growth encompassed, what had brought her to this point, and where she stood in skill level now. he wondered if she might be able to match him in combat now too. he glanced down at her prosthetic hand as a scraping noise rung from it, an occurrence he was rather familiar with himself, and then back up to meet her eyes. smirking expression had by then turned neutral, unbothered, even a little curious.
shifting his stance, he leaned back on one leg, hips askew as his hands slipped thumbs into his pockets. he looked over yang's presence, the aura she gave off, and considered his options: he could throw the first punch, so to speak, and earn himself what could be a decent fight, or he could choose to not take his chances yet, to not jump headfirst before he did a little more studying. "i guess i'm not feelin' a fight the way you are now, xiao long." he gave an easy shrug. he'll look to get his ass kicked later. "you don't know shit about me, whether or not i've changed. you see what i want you to see." his statement was… mostly true; he did act and react a certain way due to years of training himself to do so, he puts his acting skills to use far more often than even he would like to admit. despite this, he could tell she saw through his facade, at least somewhat. enough that it made him a bit uncomfortable, a bit on edge. "if you're not going to hit me, y' might as well calm down a little. you're gonna burst a blood vessel holdin' it in like that."
it eats me alive.

@sunscathing || cont. from here
truth be told, mercury hadn't really thought about yang since she'd busted up his prosthesis at the vytal festival. she packed a hefty punch, but he hadn't considered her all that memorable in the wake of things; he knew stronger people, people with more presence, and he'd rather spend his time focused on more important things than the unstable, angry blonde he'd met back at beacon. not much had changed, at first glance. the only difference of note seemed to be her right arm — mercury would have remembered that, had she hit his leg with a metal fist he might not have salvaged the part. he thought back on the scene, languid smirk spread from lips to eyes, and he swallowed down what was almost bubbled laughter. silver-tongue almost pitied her. almost. too bad mercury couldn't seem to conjure up any sort of emotion towards her, positive or negative. more than anything, he was taunting just to pass the time.
having considered her words, watching her from only a handful of steps away, quicksilver furrowed his brows quizzically, dramatically cocking his head to the side. "... what was your name again?" mercury had a fairly acute memory, but he couldn't resist poking and prodding at the chaos that simmered beneath yang's calm demeanor. she truly did look like she was ready to snap at any moment, and silver's morbid curiosity wondered how long it would take her to reach boiling point. "promise i won't go crawling off like a wounded dog this time," his words curled around his tongue like smoke, and he gave her an ever so convincing pout. "though you were such a helpful participant." gunmetal eyes feigned innocence, and that familiar smirk returned. he brought his hands up and clasped his hands together, applauding her slowly and absolutely dripping with smugness. "thanks to you, that plan went off without a hitch." truthfully, it had all been dependent on yang's fighting instincts, and she hadn't let him down.

@tempestial.
breathy laughter preceded nezha blowing up at their fringe, wrists pinned down by mercury's hands after being tackled into the forest underbrush. desire - laden smoke left on each panting exhale as they looked up at mercury's predatory mode with hearts in their eyes. ' you caught me, yīngjùn. so, now what ? '
their little game of hide and seek had quickly turned into a full blown chase, one in which mercury hunted his partner through the woods, tracked them through the trees they once played among as children. this was different, though, vastly different from anything they'd ever done as kids. heart racing not unlike the way it did when he was young, the biggest difference for mercury now was the sort of thrill he felt, the predatory kick he got from chasing nezha through the expansive forest. the teasing that nezha had done — knowing full well that they were faster than he was — only served to rile mercury up more, to drag his mind deeper into primal darkness. by the time he'd caught the dragon, all bared teeth and heightened heart rate, he was so far gone he could hardly control the instincts that were telling him to hurt nezha in the heat of the moment. both trained assassins lay in a heap on the forest floor, quicksilver straddling the other's hips, and he pinned both of nezha's wrists down beside their head with iron grip, letting out a low snarl.
mercury could taste the smoke coming off lover's breath, and in one smooth motion he let go of one wrist to grab nezha by the jaw, forcing their head to the side. two calloused fingers traced the jugular vein visible along the side of their neck, and he leaned down to hover just centimeters from where neck met jawline, panted breath warm against their skin. "i could rip your throat out with my teeth," he breathed, muscles tensing as lips brushed over heated flesh. a strained moan left his tongue, and he stretched his own jaw to release tension, still breathing hard as he fought the urge to draw blood. "i want to feel you." as silver pulled back, he left a trail of hickeys to bloom along delicate skin, and his free hand fumbled with the hem of nezha's shirt, slipping underneath the fabric to feel over abdominals as they breathed. when his lips reached dragon's own, he scratched nails down their torso and captured them in a bruising kiss, groaning feverishly into their mouth. quicksilver's thoughts were scattered, distant; he was high on energy he hadn't felt before, and he never wanted to leave this spot, this moment in time, this instinctual vim.
when mercury was young he would often find himself torturing and killing animals as an emotional outlet, as well as ‘practice’ for what marcus was teaching him about training to become an assassin. his excuse would have been that it was practice, but more often than not it was done when he was getting stir crazy or angry while marcus was away. he most often targeted wild animals, but when the occasional stray domestic animal crossed his path, he wouldn’t exactly discriminate. the torture stopped pretty completely once he started going on missions with his father though, considering he was then rarely left alone and also had a new outlet for his anger ( exactly the sort of way marcus wanted mercury to streamline his rage ). after this point, killing animals became something that was only done for necessity, because truthfully he feels rather neutrally towards animals. with more maturity and more of an understanding of instinct versus choice, he’d much rather take his anger out on a human life than an animal’s. he’s not completely cruel, he focuses his contempt on people because they have the capacity to make decisions and have an understanding of life’s consequences. for this reason, he is also relatively neutral towards grimm as well. he will kill grimm because they pose a threat but a swift kill is all he thinks they deserve.
mercury is adept with small knives, as well as throwing knives — he keeps a couple small knives on his person at all times but he rarely feels the need to use them as long as he has a combat situation under control. he tends to keep thin, straight blades on him most often but he does prefer to use small, close-to-the-hand curved blades made specifically for ripping through flesh. the ability to use these weapons to their fullest capability was, of course, required of merc by marcus by a relatively young age.

hands rest on his back as presses against the knots. massaging them out she leans over to press gentle kisses between his shoulder blades. digits go over scars with gentle graze. "you're tense."
mercury knew he was a ball of nerves, he sat straight and tensed up as weiss tried to roll the knots in his back underneath her fingers. he had to admit it felt good, he knew he’d needed help with the tension he’d been holding in his neck and shoulders because it had been causing headaches lately, but still he wouldn’t open up his body language. her words came as no surprise, but he just shrugged. “’at happens sometimes.” he wasn’t sure why he was being so dismissive, in such a closed-off mood, but he finally sighed, lowering his head. “this feels good, weiss.” thank you. he closed his eyes, thinking over the last few days. “i don’t think i’m getting enough sleep — which is saying something, considering my ability to survive on a couple hours a day. i just feel unusually exhausted.”

mercury's fingers are pretty average compared to his palm size, knuckles are a bit accentuated, veins and tendons are prominent, his nails are a bit of a flatter curve in shape and he likes to wear rings when he has the chance. his hands are both littered with barely-there white scars, mostly from combat and training.

they knew. mercury was right. they knew and yet they still continued on recklessly. they had atrocious form, ruined by this state of igneous fury. they knew that taking this anger out onto an actual mission was signing their life away. they needed to be calm, collected, and not rush in with the makings of a molotov cocktail. mercury’s calm expression made them angrier though, moreso that their pride had been attacked by the hurtful truth. ren never admits to mercury being right, but simply corrects their stance and lunges forward, this time with better form. ‘ some of my clan members still call me a blood traitor — even after all these years proving them wrong repeatedly. i’m being punished for my father’s desertion. ’ twin blades blocked more of mercury’s blows, sparks flying, another attempt to knock mercury to the ground without leaving an opening. ‘ they’re leaving me out of information relays, i can tell they want me to fail this mission. ’
one eyebrow rose curiously as mercury watched ren readjust their stance, but no other motion was made until the dragon burst forward, and the top of metal foot connected with one of ren’s blades. listening carefully as ren finally began spilling what was making them so angry, quicksilver met their strikes with more of a defensive tactic — he wanted ren to come to him, not the other way around. though mercury was guiding the fight where he wanted, it was still his intention to let ren lead, and silver only gave an offensive hit every so often, pushing the lotus back to keep them on even ground. “so?” he taunted, boot meeting both of ren’s weapons twice more. “what are you going to do about it?” mercury leaned back on one leg, coupling foot and sharp metal with uneven force, sending him skidding backwards across the dirt. looking up at ren from the ground, gunmetal eyes narrowed, before he picked himself back up. “are you gonna be passive about that too? let them treat you like the shit they scrape off their shoes and just give into it? you’re better than that.”
