Yo yo, it’s 1am cursed hours, so because I’m tired, you get a cursed ship prompt. (Not sorry. Obviously since I’m not even hiding my identity) So. Ghoul/Pony, somehow containing or endin in a fistfight. Gotta have those romantic gay fistfights and flirts and whatever. (Gosh I need sleep, this is the result of energy drinks and adhd)

“Put yer fists up.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“I said put yer goddamn fists up, Pony!”
Show Pony blinks, then slowly, deliberately arches an eyebrow at the scowling man in front of aer. “And whyever would I do that, darling?” ae asks, drawing out the word just to make Ghoul’s frown deepen.
Which it does.
“You know why, Pony!” Ghoul says, thrusting a finger out at aer.
And, well, Pony does know, but that won’t stop aer from teasing Ghoul. He’s just so cute when he gets feisty, and ae loves it.
“No,” ae says, smiling sweetly at him. “I have no idea what you’re talking about, I’m afraid.”
Ghoul growls. Really, truly growls at aer. Delightful! “You fuckin’ stole the last bag’a Cherry Chompers from my hidin’ spot! Now ya better put yer fists up an’ fight me, or I’m just gonna start punchin’!”
Pony laughs, reaches out to gently touch his shoulder. “Now, now,” ae says, “is that really any way to treat your datemate?”
“It is when ae’s a thievin’ scumbag,” Ghoul says, and, ooh, that would certainly hurt, if it weren’t for the fact that Pony can see the little twinkle in his eye, the uptick at the corner of his mouth that means he’s teasing, too.
Pony laughs again and moves back, sliding on aer skates with practiced ease. Ae puts aer fists up in a defensive position, watching him from over the tops of aer knuckles. “Alright,” ae says. “Try it, then!”
Ghoul swings, and his fist moves almost faster than ae can see, but ae throws aer arm up and blocks it, lets the force of Ghoul’s attack move aer aside.
Pony throws aer own punch, but Ghoul dodges, jumping backwards and then diving right back in again, grabbing aer arm and twisting it back.
Ae lets out a little gasp, but it’s more from shock than from pain. Ae punches again, aiming aer fist at Ghoul’s jaw, and Ghoul can’t jump back in time. Aer knuckles graze his cheek with more force than ae’d intended, but ae knows he’ll be fine.
“Good one,” Ghoul says, and kicks Pony in the shin.
“Ow!” Pony exclaims, pushing aerself back and away from Ghoul, bending over to clutch at aer wounded leg. “Ow, damn it, Ghoul!”
“Oh, shit,” Ghoul says, moving in closer with an apologetic expression. “Fuck, sorry, Pony, didn’t mean t--”
As soon as Ghoul’s within range, Pony reaches out and wraps aer arms around Ghoul’s waist, clutching him tight and letting aerself fall backwards to the floor.
“Oof!” They both let out little grunts as the breath is forced out of their lungs, and as soon as ae can properly breathe again, ae rolls them both over and pins Ghoul to the ground.
“I win,” ae says, grinning down at him.
Ghoul huffs, scowling, but Pony can see his lips and eyebrows twitch as he fights to keep from smiling.
Ae laughs, and leans down to press a kiss to each of his eyelids, the tip of his nose, and then finally his lips.
“I think we’re both getting better at fightin', don’t you?” Ae asks, hopping back upright on aer skates and then reaching down to help aer boyfriend to his feet.
Ghoul hums in reply and says, “Yeah. Soon we’ll be as good at karate as Kobra! Then we can team up on ‘im and steal all his good snacks!”
Ae grins and gives him another quick kiss. “Speaking of,” ae says, and reaches over to pluck a package off a nearby table. “I did, in fact, replace your precious Cherry Chompers, sugar.”
Ghoul’s eyes brighten, and he excitedly grabs for them. “Holy shit!” he says. “I thought we’d have to wait for the next supply run!”
Pony rolls aer eyes. “As though I’d actually eat something like that and not replace it!”
“Yeah, well, I needed an excuse to fight you!” Ghoul rips the package open with his teeth and shakes a handful of the fruit snacks out into his hand. “Want one?”
“Of course!” Pony takes one and pops it into aer mouth. “Also, you never need an excuse to fight me. I’m ready to fistfight you any time of day or night.”
Ghoul grins, stretches up to kiss aer. “Sounds like we got plans for our next date then, huh?”
Pony laughs against his mouth.
