SILVERAXE

"Guard Dog Duty" by 'smutny_technik' on ao3, very lovely fic of them teehee. Then also think of the potential if Owen stayed by Abolishs side instead of taking the cure in the finale?!

Cmon you know if they didn’t hate each other they could have bonded over their lost loves and torn oakhurst apart to get back to their respective people. This is more of a platonic pair but still, peak murderous duo.

Abolish was the only one who understood Owen and didn’t try to force him to become human, he got to pick his own ending with Abolish’s help. Also there is this fanfic called guard duty with the two of them that is amazing (https://archiveofourown.org/works/75505191/chapters/197417416)

bloodletting is cool but v!abolish is the one who managed to do all the things the doc couldn't. Also, the mutual respect to each other's skills is there everytime they met (even tho Abolish knocked out Owen's tooth) and the fact that v!owen keeps offering the gift of vampirism to v!abolish when he doesn't really want to turn anyone in town like hello??? what's up with that owen??? Another reason why I ship these two is bcs I've seen like two accounts in tiktok doing fanarts for this rarepair lol and they look cute so :3

in some alternate universe owen could have gone with abolish. abolish being the only person who has actually genuinely given owen a chance, telling him to become someone new right now rather than drawing attention to his atrocities

can't believe only a few people see the vision for this ship when we have that finale interaction from them smh /silly. Wake up sheeple! this could've been the healthiest yaoi in that goddamn doomed yaoi smp if owen chose to be human during the curing thing. Imagine the potential slowburn office romance if he chose to work alongside abolish in the organization. THEY MAKE ME ILL I NEED MORE OF THEM

Abolish did what Legs couldn’t do and offered Owen the final choice!!!! And Owen’s all soft abt finally being given the choice and being allowed to die!!!! Abolish giving him what he needed to die somewhat peacefully!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!

Another Guard Dog Duty recommendation from an anonymous asker!

I don’t ship them romantically but I loved their interactions in ep7 and ep8. Can see them being extremely weird about each other, especially after Legs turned Abolish.

legs being the only person abolish lets his guard down around just for him to fucking DIE,, ough

copying and pasting most of this from my previous posts about them

1.) abolish is the reason why the relationship is weird. legundo is trying to avoid being any amount of creepy or odd towards abolish while abolish is saying "you should punch me again." with a completely blank expression 2.) age gap yaoi. legundo looking in the mirror at himself like "am i weird? im dating someone half my age" while abolish is smiling and giggling alone in his room thinking about making out with that old man. legundo feeling nuclear amounts of guilt about everything FOREVER 3.) TOXIC YAOI. they respect each others skills and intelligence while also completely disagreeing about fundamental aspects of their ideology. theyre the only people they would ever be remotely vulnerable around but also the last people they would want to seem weak towards for fear of it being used against them, for fear of being judged by each other. first base is using each other to destroy yourselves, fifteenth base is having an actual conversation abolish needs to save legundo from owen. get him OUT of that terrible toxic relationship. veylocke the fuck in abolish GET LEGUNDO OUT OF THERE 4.) legundo is one of the people abolish cares about and trusts the most out of literally anyone in oakhurst, and vice versa. they are some of the only competent mfs there and they work together incredibly well 5.) do you think abolish felt it when legundo died. do you think he understood how legundo felt in his final moments. do you think he felt the sun on legundos skin before the closest person to him was gone forever. do you think he, even for a moment, wished hed focused on something other than his work just once so maybe, just maybe, legundo wouldve made it out alive. do you think he cried for the first time in years. do you think that even after being cured, he still feels like a piece of him is forever missing?

legundo would probably see a younger version of himself in abolish

Just. Look at them. thats it.

Badass husbands. Legs had to sacrifice himself to cure Abolish. The doomed yaoi.

THEY'RE JUST SUCH A GOOD DUO AND WE GOT SO LITTLE CONTENT OF THEM TOGETHER BUT THE MOMENTS THAT DID HAPPEN ON CAMERA WERE SO COOL AND EGFAJERFKUYREYGFYUGAE

Something something even ground something something letting the other take the lead. There's a mirror of a past self one way and a rare person worth keeping in the loop the other way. They're both soldiers and both capable of so much violence. It's entirely neutral to one and the worst thing to the other. They both prefer peace all the same.
