Sure! Plus, I have ideas for them to come up in Efflux. I actually have one with Saren and Cassia mostly written, but I was planning to save it for the full fic as it’s pretty important for their relationship.
But if you ever want to see something specific, anyone can let me know and I’ll either make it a snip or a part of Efflux! 🙂
Ellie decides to co-sign on the title of a coffee shop with a friend. She doesn’t know anything about making coffee, but decides she can learn because she already loves talking with people.
Arcanus works in a high raise as an important CEO and doesn’t have much of a taste for any kind of coffee. His second is friends (maybe in a relationship) with Ellie’s coffee shop partner and they both decide to set up their friends because, despite first glances and different personalities, the two single people share many interests.
The two make a blind double date, but once they see that Ellie and Arcanus are actually having a decent conversation, disappear to let the two have a nice evening. Needless to say, Arcanus becomes man to frequent the coffee shop and try everything out at least once while Ellie makes it her job to devise up new drinks.
7. A kiss to shut them up
Damocles is pissed, plain and simple. After a long mission that went to shit, all he wanted to do was sit down and eat a hot meal from the Mess.
What he didn’t want was for Saren fucking Reguix to show up looking for Cassia. They weren’t even back on Virmire for an hour and Damocles was being reminded that his sister was fucking the one turian on the entire fucking planet that he hated with a burning passion.
The pompous prick and his perfection in everything.
Not only that, but Damocles was forced out of the Mess for ‘stirring shit up’ without even being able to finish his meal. Now he’s pissed and hungry.
Storming out of the compound to walk the beach to cool his nerves and regain control of his biotics, Damocles growls under his breath. All it would have taken was a flick of his wrist and he could have painted the Mess walls with Saren, but he stopped himself a breath before, knowing the consequences.
Everyone loved Saren since the moment they strained him out of his damn tank and Damocles knows throwing pieces of the turian across the beaches of Virmire would only get everyone under the damn sun on his ass. It wasn’t enough to think of his family welcoming the self important asshole with open arms and smiling faces, but now Saren has to rub Damocles’ face in the fact that he’s fucking his sister. Damocles may admit to not paying attention to his sister’s social life, but even he can see she’s fallen for the bleached plated fuck that’s abusing her affection.
No amount of ‘he just doesn’t understand social cues’ would excuse the fact. Even if he’s an idiot, the bastard could look up Cassia’s barely concealed attraction.
“Damooooo ….”
The long tone of a familiar voice pulls him out of his rage as he looks around to find himself out on the docks. Rumbling angrily that he’s so pissed he didn’t even know where the hell he was going, Damocles glances over to his best – and only – damn friend on this entire planet where he stands in his small fishing boat.
“You were about to walk right off the docks,” Aeson jokes with a grin that convinces Damocles that he was far from what his friend was claiming. “That, or you were about to lift it right off its beams and toss it into the ocean.” He dons a concerned expression and climbs up onto the dock. “You okay? Did your mission go wrong?”
“No,” Damocles says, snapping his mandibles against his jaw in irritation. “Yes. But that’s not what has me pissed off.” Snarling, he balls his fists and begins to pace the small section of the dock designated for Aeson and his equipment. “That fucking … fucking bastard shows the fuck up when I’m trying to get something to fucking eat … and he has the balls to try and ask me where Cassia is?!”
He hears Aeson speak, but the sound falls deaf to Damocles’ ears as he continues to rant and snarl out his rage. Throwing his hands up, Damocles discharges the occasional biotic surge out towards the water to keep himself from damaging anything. Last thing he wants is to wreck someone’s shit and they take it out on Aeson. He gets enough shit from the other fishermen.
As if he’d need even more reasons to be pissed off.
“I swear if I could wring his pencil neck,” he snarls, tightening his fists in the air before his eyes as he imagines Saren’s neck between his fingers. “I could hear the bones snap and-”
When he turns, he stumbles in his steps as he nearly charges into Aeson who then grabs Damocles’ cowl and yanks him down. Smashing their mouths together in a mock kiss as humans do, Aeson rumbles soothingly against Damocles and the larger turian exhales a long, heavy breath, forcing his shoulders to relax.
He can feel the twitch of Aeson’s mandibles against him as the younger man grins and gives Damocles’ mandible a rough nip that jingles the ring pierced there.
“There,” Aeson says as he leans back. “That’s much better.”
Thanks for the prompt ask!
1. Your first OC ever?
My first OC would have to be Damocles. He was made during a roleplaying story with a friend and he had a twin brother. Damocles had pretty much the same attitude, but he had the absolute worst luck. I beat that guy up, I won’t lie.
45. A character you no longer use?
I no longer use his brother, Nathanius. Damocles stole the show and left Nate pretty much in the shadows. I even switched him to a female twin in Parable because I think Cassia was a better fit to contrast Damocles’ grumpiness.
48. OC who is a perfect cinnamon roll, too good for this world
That’d have to be Cassia. She’s way too good for her family, lol. Everyone there is so mopey and grumpy while she’s all sunshine and cheer. But she lightens up everyone’s day, so I think it works.
Thanks for the asks!
Pace preference?
Arcanus is a fan of deep and slow. He likes to savor the moment, but that doesn’t mean he’s not one to go at it like a madman. However, he usually likes to make it last longer to make up for all the years he and Ellie have missed.
Penis size?
Haha … Oh boy. I knew this might come up. 😉
Arcanus is about average size for turians. As much as I’d love to make people’s eyes bug out at size, they are slightly above human length. They’re a bit girthier than humans, but the average turian is around seven inches. I’d say Arcanus is probably around that.
Is Ellie Arcanus’ first human and vice versa?
Arcanus has tried sex with a human, yes, and Ellie once tried to have sex with a turian. He sated the curiosity – but it ended up making him regret it because it reminded him of love lost. Ellie, however, was ridden with guilt when she tried to sleep with a turian and never made it past flirting. She just couldn’t stop thinking about how she betrayed Arcanus when she looked at the turian in the bar. As cheesy as it sounds, the relationship really made the sex a new experience for the both of them.
Thanks for the asks!
Star crossed lovers + time travel (Shakarian)
Hm… Let’s see…
Okay, so it’s the end of the war and everything goes wrong. People are dying, things blowing up, but Shepard sets off the Crucible (I’m ignoring the star child BS). Something happens, though, and she finds herself hurled back through time.
She finds herself in the First Contact War. She thinks she’s alone until she finds a turian that doesn’t kill her. He takes off his helmet and it’s Garrus! And he remembers her!
Only they can’t be together. They are finally at a place where they aren’t worrying about the Reapers killing everyone and their people are at war.
Go ahead and fight me about it 😝
