Can I request for a scenario where F, Ghost, Love2 and Belga are not able to bathe alone due to a broken leg or lacerations so they need their kind master's help.
Just like Michael one on AO3(it was so sweet) , if it's alright with you
Oooooh, fun, fun~ >:3c I donāt whether you mean Love1 or Like2, but since this is a delightful prompt, Iāll break my usual character limit and do both.Ā
Youāre seeing too much. Thatās all that F can think. Itās just a bath. You havenāt touched him in that way yet, and heās been starting to think that you might not do so at all, but itās still...Ā
Heās stripped bare, every scar on full display. Your gentle hand rests against his back, mercifully in a place that isnāt marred.Ā
āThank you, Master,ā F says once youāve helped him lower himself into the steaming water. He makes his eyes go lidded and smiles in a way that he knows comes across as inviting. Itās trained into him at this point. Not being what heās supposed to be isnāt safe.Ā
But instead of following that invitation, you ask if you can wash his hair. His body shivers in what might be an aborted flinch.Ā
He agrees. What choice does he have?
And then, your fingers are finding his scalp; combing through his hair so, so tenderly. F has to stop himself from biting down on a pornographic moan. Itās humiliating, but whatās expected of him, but just the same, he hates that it isnāt just another part of the act.Ā
Nothing hurts like this. With your fingers in his hair, your soft voice reassuring him that heās safe, and hot water easing the ache from every old wound, pain feels, for once, far away.Ā
Fās head ducks. He canāt look at you. He should be grateful, not panicking because Master decided to be nice to him.Ā
What a ruined, fucked-up thing he is.Ā
Ghostās skin is so sensitive it almost hurts. Itās normally not like this. For some reason, itās only now that his Master is handling him that everything is much, much too tender to bear.Ā
Heās helpless. Youāre bathing him because he canāt do it for himself, and the attention is destroying him from the inside out.Ā
Fingers drag through his hair, massaging in shampoo that smells like you. Ghost sits there and bites his lip to keep from making a sound. He doesnāt want to ruin this, not while it feels so good. Youāre touching him. Itās a privilege he canāt let himself lose.Ā
āDoes this feel okay?ā you ask when you bring a washcloth to the back of his neck and lightly scrub. His whole body shakes.Ā
You hum low and under your breath. Ghost thinks of what youāre seeing; a forgotten, aborted weapon who even now is good for nothing but making you go out of your way to take care of it. He wants this more than anything, butā wanting is bad, and he canāt take too much.Ā
The washcloth slips under his chin, and Ghost nuzzles into it on reflex because itās your hand behind the fabric. His face burns, but heās too far gone for shame. Only terrified need remains.Ā
When he looks at you through lidded, hazy eyes, your expression is tender. His wet hair drips into his face. The water is so, so warm. Can this last? Could a bath go on forever? Ghost knows heās pathetic, but this is the most attention heās had in so, so long.Ā
His body hurts. Thatās just a fact of life.Ā
Even when Love1 is more fucked up and useless than normal, he doesnāt get a break. Heās used to it, so why waste the time? Whatās supposed to happen is that heās left to figure himself out.Ā
Whatās not supposed to happen is this; sitting in a steaming bath thatās sapping away every ache while his Master fusses over him.Ā
Youāre wiping dried blood off of his face. Love1 tried to joke it all away for all of five minutes before the attention got to be too much. Your face is so close to his. The attention is suffocating. Howās a guy meant to keep it together when the reason for his existence is treating him so softly, huh?
So Love1 sits there and tries to stay calm. This is fine. Youāre not hurting him, so this is fine. Never mind that heās starting to feel floaty and strange from all the touching.Ā
āCan I wash your hair?ā you ask.Ā
āY-Yeah. Go for it,ā he tries to grin. It feels crooked and too weak.Ā
Things that should hurt donāt. Thereās no source of pain to ground him. The hot bath and his Masterās touch are taking it all away.Ā
Why are you wasting your time? There are better weapons than him. You could have anyone else to spoil, not a gangly, scrawny, broken wreck of a man who can barely function on his own.Ā
His Masterās tender expression is making it hard to breathe. Love1 isnāt used to this, and thatās what makes it all the easier to drown.Ā
Heās always wanted to be spoiled. Now that he actually has it, Like2 doesnāt know what heās supposed to do.Ā
You had to help him into the bath. His scars and body were on display for you. Normally, this would be a chance to appeal to his Master in that way. This time, it just made him feel much too helpless and small.Ā
Now, Like2 is in a bathtub full of raspberry-scented bubbles. Youāre combing your fingers through his hair, working out tangles, and he can barely fucking breathe. Itās not just the wounds. His Masterās attention is all on him for what might be the first time, andā
This is what spoiling feels like. This is what itās like to be wanted.Ā
Heās a whiny brat with a short temper and no self-control. All heās good for is being a pretty hole to fuck. Thatās what heās used to.Ā
But instead, you have him in a hot bath, have gentle hands in his hair, taking care of him when he canāt do it for himself, and seem to expect nothing in return. Like2 has a lump in his throat and something hot and desperate in his lungs.Ā
Heās praying that he doesnāt embarrass himself. As it is, he feels dangerously close to crying. He wants to see your face.Ā
āM-Master...ā It slips out against Like2ās will.Ā
āYeah? Iām not pulling, am I?ā
āN-No!ā His voice is dangerously close to a squeak. āUm, I-I... Thank you...ā Itās the only way he can voice it; how grateful he is.Ā
Belga hates every part of this. He has to ātake it easyā, not fight, and not even run around. Instead of making him work through being hurt, youāre insisting on babying him. As if he needs it.Ā
And... heās small enough that youāve taken to carrying him around like a child. Itās to make things easier, you say, but all it does is make Belga feel much too small and weak. And heāll never admit to the moments where heās hurt enough to snuggle into your chest in search of comfort.Ā
This time, you lower him into the weirdly warm bath with so much care itās uncomfortable to withstand.Ā
The water isnāt scalding. Heād almost assumed you were going to punish him for his uselessness that way. But no. Itās just warm and nice, and Belga has no fucking clue how to respond.Ā
It hurts just to try to move.Ā
āStay still,ā you tell him when he squirms. āIāll take care of you for now, okay? Just let me.ā
Your voice makes Belga have to bite his lip. He feels like heās holding back tears, which is weird and uncomfortable and stupid. Heās never been like this before. Heās never felt weaker.Ā
Being taken care of like this doesnāt make any sense. Belga sniffles. He kind of wishes you were holding him again, if only so he could hide his face. The lingering pain in his body barely matters compared to the weird, overwhelmed feeling grabbing at his chest.Ā
