Work Text:
Sunny had been wandering the plains of East Antarctica for a few days now, atop the trotting Nightmare. Jet sat right in front of him, practically in his embrace but neither of them were in the mental state to take notice nor to even care.
It's been nearly 2 weeks since the fall of Falcon Scott and the weight of their failures still hung heavily in their minds. Nightmare was taking a slow trot along the icy plains while Sunny's shadows scouted ahead.
There were Nightmare creatures in every direction, not allowing them a peaceful path through, not that such a thing was really possible. Sunny sighed as he lightly swung the stirrups of the overpriced Saddle, ordering Nightmare to settle down near an empty cave? Burrow? He didn't know what to call it.
"..."
Master Jet made a subtle sound that made him look her way, and he realized that he had accidentally slapped her thigh when he swung the stirrups. Master Jet made no further mention of it so Sunny didn't either, but he had noticed that Master Jet's body had been really warm and soft. So sof...
Shaking his head out of the unnecessary thoughts, Nightmare neared the small outcropping of stone with a small open cavity beneath, it had looked like some form of natural igloo forming from the rock above.
Sunny sent his shadows within to scout it out, but the cavity was too small to house anything dangerous, and just like he predicted, it was empty.
Master Jet exhaled from her nose, expelling a trail of vapor as she suddenly leaned her head back. Sunny was a bit flustered especially since Jet and him were roughly the same height while sitting atop Nightmare 💀 so he had to awkwardly tilt his head to the side to avoid Jet's cranium from hitting the bridge of his nose.
The situation looked exceedingly unromantic but the warmth from Master Jet's body was absolutely real as she had naturally pressed her body closer to his after leaning her head back.
"Jet?"
Unwittingly dropping any form of honorifics he stared at the Ascended, her head roughly leaning on his shoulder and their cheeks almost touching.
"I'm cold."
Her voice was rather deadpan, nonchalant.
"It seems you've recovered enough to feel cold now?" Sunny only mustered an awkward response.
'And enough to be really warm...'
He kept the last part to himself not knowing what else to say.
Luckily his body has taken the lead tightening his embrace around her waist as Nightmare made an awkward trot in the snow 😎.
He paled at the contract, but Jet simply offered a silent nod to the previous question.
A short, awkward? few seconds later, Nightmare arrived at the outcropping of rock, and Sunny wistfully dismounted the austere horse.
Wistfully?
Jet followed his lead silently dropping off of Nightmare's shadow, a little clumsy, but much better than their first time around and he dismissed the shadow back into his Soul promising to teach it a lesson next time.
"We'll stay here for a few hours, let the Nightmare Creatures wander about until a hole in their formation appears that we can slip through."
Sunny explained getting on his knees, to start making a makeshift fire pit inside of the small cavity. Actually with closer inspection the cavity looked more like a burrow, but not one that Nightmare Creatures would make. Perhaps, this was one of the remnants left by the last few mundane animals on Earth, or he simply misunderstood this hole in the snow.
Regardless, it only took Sunny a few short minutes to set up a cozy firepit in the center of the snow burrow. Sunny stared at Jet for a few moments, unsure if she had had something to say back there or was simply messing with him.
Then she spoke out of the blue, "Sunny, you've never had sex, have you?"
The question was so out of left field that Sunny spat out the water he was drinking from the Endless Spring in a litany of coughs, as the pressure to answer mounted from his Flaw.
Forcing a chuckle, he answered noncommittally, "When would I have the time?"
Indeed, in between rescue missions, hunting, the Dreamscape, his business, his sister, the 2nd Nightmare among many other things, when would he have had the opportunity to do that. Much less who?
But the answer to that question actually came quite easily in his head, Nephis, Effie, even Je...
Coughing once more to stop his thoughts there, Jet spoke once more, another cutting statement.
"So you're a virgin?"
Sunny became utterly silent, both in embarrassment and confusion. But helpless in the face of his flaw, he simply answered.
"Yes... But why even bring this up?"
Sufficed to say his face was only a little tiny bit red and very, very angry. Why was Jet even bringing such a pointless topic up in the first place?
But seeing the subtle smile on her face, he had a premonition.
"Well... Can't I be curious, Sunny?"
Sunny's face grimaced, though he had never told Jet his own Flaw, she probably had an idea. Just like he had been observing her, she had been observing him just as much. The thought made him a little...
"No... please don't be curious."
Unable to stem the pain from his Flaw, he gave a stout refusal but Jet only gave a sultry smile.
"You know Sunny, I've never been embraced this much by a man before in my life. Don't you think that's a little unfair?"
Sunny's face twisted even more as Jet sat up from her side of the wall to sit right. next. to. him.
Keeping his eyes solely locked on the firepit, not even daring to look any other way, he was once again forced to answer the question with his own.
"What exactly is unfair?"
Jet smiled, "You know, you get to enjoy yourself, touching me all you like, hitting my thighs, embracing me tight but I can't even do the same?"
Sunny coughed, "That was all an accident, I didn't mean to do any of that."
It wasn't a lie.
He felt nervous of the direction the conversation was inevitably headed, yet he didn't even know why.
"But you certainly enjoyed it didn't you?" Her languid voice whispered, her breath tickling his ears.
He trembled, the pain from his Flaw mounting and mounting within the silence.
Until it exploded.
"Of course I did..."
A response much more positive than he had intended to say, spurred on by the blinding pain of his Flaw.
He grimaced.
Jet's smile grew velvety, "Then do you want to do more?"
'No', he had wanted to say but the explosion of blinding pain from his Flaw seized his throat and convulsed his body, conveniently, right in the direction of Jet.
With Sunny suddenly falling on top of Jet due to his Flaw, even Jet became flustered, interpreting it as an answer in itself.
"Easy Sunny, I'm not going anywhere~" She trailed off into a seductive chuckle as Sunny tried to push himself off of Jet's endowment which he had 'accidentally' fallen onto.
No, it really was an accident!
However Jet's arms found themselves fittingly locked behind his neck, with Jet and Sunny face to face in the privacy of the middle of buttfuck nowhere, East Antarctica.
The atmosphere was heated, electric between them, their eyes locked as if trying to read the opponent's next move. Less the gaze of lovers, more the gaze of Masters in battle.
In a way it was a battle, yet Jet ultimately held the reins in this one. "Sunny, do you want to kiss me?"
Sunny's expression fell into a lost grimace, his Flaw once more burning in his mind.
To say no, was undeniably a lie, but to say yes wasn't entirely truthful either. It was very complicated to sort out his feelings in such a quick manner.
It was embarrassing to say but he was a romantic in the sense that he wouldn't want to throw away his first kiss and... first time so readily.
But would doing it with Jet really be throwing it away?
When the pain became too much, Sunny simply spoke his mind. "I'm afraid of the consequences it would bring."
The affirmation of desire to intimacy, yet the aversion to the consequences it would bring.
"Don't worry Sunny, I'm not the type to make things serious." Jet's smile turned soft as the arms around his neck inched him closer.
"But that's part of the problem isn't it..." The words leaked from his mouth on their own, his Flaw not even having the time to mount.
Jet tilted her head, "Then do you want us to be something more?", she questioned her expression brooding.
"I..." his voice froze wanting to think his words through as his Flaw mounted.
"-don't know...", but nothing could really be more effective than the truth.
His feelings were really volatile right now. After the failure in Falcon Scott, his long separation from a lot of his friends, his growing closeness and intimacy with Master Jet.
All of it was too much to think about, so he hadn't. But now that it came all at once he was too confused to make sense of it all.
Evidently, there was one main thing holding him back more than any other.
Ne-
"Sunny..." Jet's breathy voice stopped all his thoughts in their tracks, "Don't think too deeply about this, we're just..." She trailed off.
"Spending some time away from our own thoughts..." Leaving those words hanging in the air her lips met his, supple and lively, attesting to her recovery.
Sunny's mind blanked yet he was in no metal state to complain either. He had wanted to just get away from it all since the very beginning, so wasn't this his chance?
In the end, even if he had no idea what he was doing, his instincts had taken the reins. His left hand was supporting Jet's head and nestled within her short hair, his other already tracing her figure in the snow.
She was so unbelievably warm and alive which was a far cry from her state just a week prior.
Desire welled, as their lips intertwined. If she was this warm now then what of...
Their kiss broke off, as steam clouded their vision a trail of saliva quickly freezing in the air between them.
As Ascended, they were both very warm and resistant to the cold, but the air around them was still unpleasant to the touch even in the presence of a firepit, not even mentioning the snow they were about to fuck on.
Wait, were they really going to fuck?
Having that thought race across his head, Sunny tried to summon up his rational mind but Jet bit that opportunity away.
Literally.
Bringing her lips to his neck and leaving a hickey, all sense of rational thinking was pointless. He may have been an Ascended and one of the smartest, most strong-willed Ascended out there at that.
But he was still just a damned virgin.
Of course they didn't do anything crazy like tearing their clothes off in the Antarctic weather, but anywhere their hands could've gone under clothes had already been explored over them.
"Sunny~ Let's fuck." Jet drawled out between smoky breaths.
How could he resist?
Too much pressure had been on the mind, he needed a bit of rest, a bit of joy, a bit of pleasure. Didn't he deserve that much for running nonstop?
In such a cold climate, they could only choose to fuck with their clothes on, but that only made it more arousing, and fuck was he aroused.
Clothed or not, Jet was a fucking beauty, even if she may not admit it herself. She may be average among the Ascended in terms of looks but she was certainly anything but to Sunny.
Did that mean something deeper?
Who knows? Who cares either?
Didn't they say there was no need to think?
This was just...
Destressing.
Right, Destressing.
Jet grabbed his cock, through the open fly. Never had he been more happy that Ascension reformed and evolved the physical body into its peak. There was only so much a malnourished boy from the outskirts could've wielded after all.
Feeling her warm hand grasp his great detail in the cold felt euphoric. Jet's hand was warm and soft, only compounded by the cold air within the burrow.
"Jet..." He spoke for the first time in what must've been a dozen minutes, his voice hoarse and breathy from anticipation.
Jet licked her lip, "You know I would've loved to take my time and suck you off but in this cold that'll probably just make things worse."
The thought of having missed Jet's blowjob made his mind go blank but in exchange he got to the main course quicker.
Jet's clothes (memories) were damaged but still mostly intact, never even daring to remove them to give them the chance to repair. Yet throwing caution to the wind, she simply ripped a hole into her own tights to reveal her pussy.
The sight was the most erotic thing Sunny had ever seen or imagined. Any meager regret or hesitation blown away by the deluge of lust brewing from within.
"Just fuck me Sunny, I'll just wear something lat-UGHH" Being way ahead of Jet, his body plunged itself into her shutting her up before she could even continue.
Her moans were angelic in the Antarctic snow.
Never in his life would he have imagined, Jet, the Master Jet, would ever make these noises to him, for him, because of him.
The thought alone drove him crazy as he rutted his hips into her intense warmth. It was crazy to think she had basically been a corpse less than 2 weeks ago.
That thought grounded him for a moment as he finally began to see again.
Time moved as if in slow motion.
Jet was beneath him, her breathing hoarse and ragged as his hips slowed. Each hazy breath of hers causing a cloud of vapor to rise into the frozen air.
Paradoxically beads of sweat formed and froze all across her face as her breathing slowly recovered itself a bit of drool hanging from her lip probably from when they had made out.
His hands were on either side of her head, as his hips slowly moved back and forth, each movement causing an explosion of never before-seen expressions on Jet's face.
He was mesmerized, not only because of how she looked, but how she sounded, how she felt inside and outside.
He cupped one of her tits, she bit her lip, their eyes met, he squeezed a bit, then their tongues met and intertwined, saliva intermingling.
Next he hilted himself deep, air escaped Jet's mouth like a suppressed moan, he did it again, and the same gorgeous sound broke through her lips, a harmonious mewl.
He pinched a nipple, she gave a breathy gasp, as he sucked on her tongue, she sucked his back, as she locked her legs behind his back, tight.
"Inside.." Her hypnotic whisper, burned his mind white with lust.
"Do it!~ Do it!~" Pleas like impossible temptations of a succubus.
And a voice so hypnotically angelic that they could only come from a devil.
He grabbed her ass tight, so supple, as he hilted himself deep. Another devilish moan escaped as his own desire broke free.
It felt euphoric, heavenly, like she wanted to wring him dry of every last drop, as he deposited each rope deep into her.
"I bet you're glad, a pussy like mine can't get pregnant can it?" Jet mused with a dewy smile, strands of her hair clinging to her face freezing in the air.
Was he really?
"Yeah..." Taking a hazy breath he stole her lips once again, as he started to rut his hips without even bothering to pull out.
No, don't think, just fuck and enjoy.
This is nothing anyways...
Just a one time thing...
A destresser...
No meaning behind it...
Nothing serious...
.....
...
"Fuck!" He exclaimed in between thrusts catching his breath.
"You close, Sunny?" Her voice was honey, sweet, seductive yet carrying the weight of hidden affection.
Or not so hidden...
"I don't think I can go back." He whispered into her ears, between breaths, his cock hilted deep.
She smiled, mischievous, flattered, tempting, so many words that could be used to describe yet all fell short.
"We don't need to~" Trailing off there she licked her lips, and then his shortly after.
This woman...
Then a blur, memories hazy, thoughts fleeting, head empty of everything except lust.
"You'll be the end of me." He didn't know how much time had passed until he last spoke coherent words.
"You don't seem to be too upset about that, Sunny~" She teased back with that same coquettish smile.
The way he said his name! It always made his head feel like butter.
It must've been a few hours, their entire body was racked with sweat freezing solid onto their bodies after the fire pit had died down.
"I'm cold." She muttered matter of factly, yet her legs remained locked behind his back as if she wouldn't let him go.
"It's hot as fuck in here." Sunny ran his thumb across her abdomen, right above where her womb ought to be and she shuddered.
"Shut up, bad boy." It really wasn't a fitting moniker considering it was entirely her fault they ended up like this.
But leaving those words she finally released her leg lock and Sunny pulled himself out for the first time and his first thought was...
Damn, it is cold!
The fire pit was nothing more than embers and even in the long day, it was still unbelievably cold in Antarctica.
However before his dick could freeze solid in the air, Jet sat herself upright and licked his cock clean, all while his cum leaked out of her onto the snow.
Of course, he got hard instantly but Jet simply shoved his cock back into his fly and zipped it up before quickly unsummonning and summoning a new pair of clothing memories.
"Fuck its freezing Sunny! Get the fire started!" He wanted to retort but the biting cold put his rationality back in its place.
Amidst the difficulty in his pants he was still quick to take out the remaining firewood he had collected in Covetous Coffer and once again reignited the flames.
Jet sat across from him leaning, onto the wall with a new pair of noticeably weaker and thinner clothes. It was unfortunate but he hadn't even gotten the chance to peak.
Not that he would have!
"Sad you couldn't take a peak?" Jet asked a smug smirk on her face as she twirled her hair.
"...Yes." Not even bothering to prolong it any longer with his Flaw.
"How honest Sunny~" She gave a cute smile before breaking into a tiny chuckle.
God, everything he saw about her was starting to turn pink.
He knew, he fucking knew that he would never be able to go back.
"I'm the most honest man in the world, no two worlds, Jet." he muttered his voice a little wry.
And the worst part?
He didn't think he wanted to.
Sighing, he went over to sit on the wall next to Jet, next thing he knew she grabbed a hold of his arm and started leaning her head onto his shoulder.
"God, you tired me all the way out, Sunny~" Her voice still rosy, yet undeniably exhausted not just from the action but from everything.
"..."
"Thank you. For going along with me..." Her voice trailed off, melancholic. "I... really needed that."
Another person's company, affection, desire.
In a scenario where she had attained a conviction, something she hasn't had since her birth, and to have it thrown away, stomped on and shattered.
It was difficult to find reason in her actions if all it did was merely prolong the inevitable in front, forces of nature like the Winter Beast.
Still this was nice...
Slowly her arms embracing his grew tighter, and her breath grew shallower, into the lull of sleep.
Being wanted.
Having a reason to live.
A companion, no matter how temporary.
Sunny sat there beside her, his own mind and body exhausted. Too many thoughts racing in his head and not enough energy to entertain any.
Still he kept her close to him.
To keep her warm.
To keep her wanted.
To cherish that fleeting intimacy.
Slowly but together, they softly fell into that dark abyss of the mind cradled in each other's embrace.
Still a whisper escaped his lips just before succumbing to the call of rest.
"I think... I needed that too..."
