--Faerie--

[A beautiful white fox sleeps on a stump outside the village. Most of the villagers are unsure of the fox, as white foxes aren't typical here and it might be a bad omen. But so far nothing has happened, so no one has tried to chase it off.

The only reason nothing has happened yet is because Yusuke is recovering from travel. Once he's had a good long nap, he plans on making this village part of his new kingdom and will be inspecting it.]

Then will you let me court you, Ame?

Please... please do.

[A head tilt.]

"Ame"...?

Ah. A nickname. Is that okay?

[Probably for the first time since he arrived... Takame had a warm smile on his face.]

Mm. It is. I like it.

[Oh that smile. Yusuke blushes a little.]

My Ame. Let me finish tending your scales? And then dinner and then...sleep?

... Mm. Your Ame.

[Takame liked this. The idea of being his. It gave him... a purpose finally. He leaned in, pressing his forehead against Yusuke's.]

Yes, please.

[So cute. And so quick to fall for him. Impressive.

Yusuke moves Takame to his room that evening, and they sleep the night away in each other's arms. That becomes their new normal. Yusuke loves it.

A few months pass like this. Takame's change is slow so as not to aggravate him too much, but by now he has scales and the start of horns. (And teeth, his teeth are much sharper now.) He is so clearly a dragon-in-the-making.

So it's a bit weird when he's taken from Yusuke's home by a more powerful being, talking the entire time about making Takame his.]

[That first night is some of the best unassisted sleep Takame ever got. Every night afterwards was spent with this man he fell in love with in record time. The changes were slow and sometimes irritating if not painful. When his horns began to grow especially he suffered from headaches for a while. They're less frequent now thankfully. And he's drawn blood on his lip more than once when his sharper teeth were still new. He was adjusting as well as a human could to a complete change like this.

When he woke to being taken by this stronger being those teeth were on full display as he snarled at it from wherever he was taken to.]

Where...?! Where am I, where is my Yusuke?!

[He's in some cave system, surrounded by people who are probably meant to be guards.

One them just laughs.]

Eh, shuddup. Your new master'll be here soon~

[There's a growl. Loud and threatening and decidedly not human at all. The changes were really showing.]

Answer my questions and I may yet show you mercy. Where am I. And where is my Yusuke.

I'unno, crying over missing you? Who knows with that idiot.

Don't you dare insult him... you worthless FUCKING WRETCH.

[What followed could only be described as a bloodbath. Armed or not, Takame could make use of anything around him as an improvised weapon. Stones, crags, enemy weapons, his own developing talons... anything.

Amidst the sea of violence, there was a wide variety of "warnings" he got out. More like last rites, though.]

Never speak ill of my beloved again. I am Yusuke's and ONLY YUSUKE'S. WHERE IS HE?!

[Anyone left alive by the sheer good graces of Takame finding them useful will see a horrifying sight of a man with murder behind his eyes and his robes stained with blood like something straight out of a nightmare.]

[There was a plan, here. The plan was to swoop in and save Takame, showing that Yusuke will take care of him.

The plan was not "arrive and find half the hired thugs already dead because Takame is in fact murderously insane".

Hot.

Yusuke steps over a body, looking around.]

Ame?

[Yusuke's influence had only a small hand in this aspect of Takame. If any hand at all. He was just like this. And when he heard Yusuke's voice he rushed over and reached for his love.]

Yusuke...! You're alright... forgive me, forgive me... they took me from you somehow.

...yes, because I let them.

[Oh no. He's hot covered in blood.]

It's a courting thing, to show you that if you you're taken I will come save you. I should have warned you, I see.

Ah.

[It was... a test? For Yusuke to court him? Ah. Now he can't help but feel as though he ruined something. He never doubted Yusuke would come to his rescue for anything.

He never thought anyone would save him from anything.]

Forgive me... it wasn't my intent to disrupt your courting. I am used to fighting my way out of such situations. And they took me from you. They insulted you.

I am yours, Yusuke. No one else's. I am yours. I will not allow anyone to insult you or offend you.

No, don't apologize. This is...frankly, better than my plan. I only wish I had seen you tear through them.

Do... you think so?

[Yusuke liked it? He liked Takame being a fighter like this... liked knowing they were torn through, wishing he could have witnessed.

His heart started racing and he wrapped his arms around Yusuke.]

Should anyone attempt to trespass upon my beloved's domain, they will be met with the same. A display will be made of them for my beloved to witness.

[Yeah, Takame was not a normal man.]

Mmm, is that a promise?

[Yusuke smiles and steps closer, arms around Takame's neck.]

It is. None shall enter your domain without your word. Those who do not have it will face the wrath of your dragon.

[Takame was still covered in blood, fresh blood at that, but he leaned in closer.]

Will you kiss me, beloved?

Of course.

[Happily, and a little heated.]

[And Takame returns it, equally as heated if not more given how he wasted no time using his tongue to deepen it immediately. He moved a hand to the back of Yusuke's head to hold him in the kiss closer and from the back of his throat a hungry growl could be heard.

There was a thought in the back of his mind he didn't entirely notice, nor care to silence.

My mate.]

[So good.

A few more months, closer to a year, passes. Takame's transformation proceeds apace and soon he's pretty much entirely a dragon. There remains little of the human Takame was. Yusuke loves it, and he's taken to constantly clinging to Takame and sticking to his side whenever he can. He adores his dragon.

He also adores playing games with Takame's old human minder, leading him on merry chases as he tries to find out more about magic. It frees his daughter up from dealing with him and it's as close to proper revenge as Yusuke is going to get. He's watching one such game play out, laughing as the man fails to find the treasure again.]

[Takame was near unrecognizable as he was now. Hair a beautiful blonde lighter highlights, almost platinum and longer hair that was much smoother. He had his own magic, longer and pointed ears he often adorned with accessories along with beautiful horns matching his scales that he also prettied up often.

He thought this look was better for him. He thought this was truly him. This truly was "Kesi Takame".

His long hair was often decorated with poppy flowers like the sort-of surname he took on as well as plum blossoms. His magic seeing eyes were bright teal now and as he approached his love to see what he was watching, his tail wrapped around his waist as it had many times in the time since he's grown it.

He really just wanted to touch his love right now. More so than usual.]

Ah, he is lost again. Did you send someone to lead him on a fruitless search again, beloved? [His tone was fond, if quiet as always. Yusuke had many servants and familiars who also enjoyed messing with terrible humans. It was their own flavor of revenge too for people unwilling to spill blood.]

[Yusuke leans against Takame with a chuckle.]

Mhm. If he could read magic, he'd know that there is no such thing as a Selizetem Unyaixued.

["Unsexualized Item". A terrible joke.]
