I hear devious duo?
they died actually. devious duo is dead so here's some angsty hcs of them
Spoke used to hold Mapicc's hand when they went to sleep because it helped him stop thinking so much. he tried to hold his hand during their fight in the labyrinth but Mapicc just swatted him away
with each time Mapicc was taken away Spoke just grew more and more attached to him. it wasn't so bad during the Mafia and even when BAT was after him, but during those weeks he was in the Farlands Spoke went through literal hell, having nightmares almost every night and constant tachycardias
Spoke has always hated traveling through the nether because his body absorbs a lot of heat and makes him dizzy. that, plus how little he's eaten and all the blood he's lost after Null took him made him too weak to walk, making them have to drag his barely conscious body to wherever they're taking him
Mapicc has always enabled Spoke to keep causing chaos and mayhem, not quite realizing his silence and/or encouragement were part of the reason he turned out this way. after Jamato told him everything, he realized what he had "caused" and killing Spoke would be his way of redeeming himself
sometimes Spoke would start spiraling thinking of everything he had done and so scared of the consequences he'd have to face; Mapicc finding out was always the worst scenario. during those episodes, only Mapicc was able to snap him out, but Spoke would never tell him anything, he'd just start apologizing and making Mapicc promise he'd never leave him even if he was a horrible person
when the night was too quiet to sleep, they'd start talking about their future plans together. sometimes they'd go to a different server, some others they'd move in with Minute in the End, but it never crossed their minds that they would be away from each other
