Senecio adn Tide II

[VisAnastasis]

Tide snickered with such enthusiastic permission, seeming a little excited to show off. He ordered a whip from the room, and one indeed showed up, and he picked it from the table, dramatically placing it at a safer distance from the actor. Once he assured the man is watching him, quite like a child making sure the parent watched when it performs, Tide swung the whip. He did it dramatically, but slowly, not even putting full strength into it - but there was a loud noise of wood being crushed, as the chair literally snapped in half like it was made of stacked paper. Being laughed out louder, not with malice or violence, but with playfulness and pleasure of feeling unrestrained for that one moment, and he swung again and again, each casual swing shredding the poor chair to bits. It was obvious now why Tide seemed to only use hands when fighting - he knew how to measure punches if with bare hands. If he used tool, however, he was just too strong to be able to learn to use them properly or not to make mistake and accidentally exenterate someone. Not just the chair, but even the whip seemed to get damaged and shabby as it was hitting the specially reinforced marble floors.

[Mirach]

Senecio bit his lower lip, his breath quickening with the demonstration of strength. "Oh dear..." he murmured. "Amazing..."

[VisAnastasis]

Tide must have not often been praised for his strength, quite the opposite, and he looked rather amused and flattered by the response, but even more so - he seemed giddy at how unafraid and casual actor was about what lot of people would be terrified with.

" Pretty dramatic sight, yes? " he asked brightly. " Still, wouldn't label it too amazing... It's easier to break than to not brake something. Rather, aren't you impressed by my superb self-control in comparison? " Tide asked, and mischievously, with the zeal of a child, he retreated the whip and began to tear it up bit by bit, with casual ease as if it was a piece of paper, watching the actor expectantly, with a clear tease. " If I don't hold back, pretty much everything around me can be torn off just like that. If I were not mindful, I could basically tear or someone's hand even in a mere handshake. But I have honed my control almost to the point of instinct now.  Aren't I just the best in self-control or what? " he grinned widely. " Come, on, I am waiting on my praise! You must be impressed by how good I am handling human tools and humans with this hilariously overpowered body, right? It is the hardest thing I've accomplished, mind you, ha!  "

[Mirach]

"You're so good at it one doesn’t even notice," Senecio said wonderingly. "Like when you play a character so well that the audience believes you are the character. It must feel like walking among incredibly breakable things all the time, doesn't it?"

[VisAnastasis]

" Oh, yes! " Tide, who didn't seem to think there was anything miserable about it, actually clearly felt quite excited to share something he was apparently really proud of. At least judging by his fluttering feelings he clearly took Senecio's words as praise and compliment, and continued energetically, as he stepped closer. " I'll tell you a little secret - I am not technically falling into high demon category, because I am my own category, but I am actually probably as strong as that sweet high demon Erdel when he uses his full force. Despite it's taboo, eating souls of others is tempting because of many benefits in power. Since I am made of so many combined soul pieces, my combined strength is way stronger than general most common Beings, " he explained, and as a show, once he stood before the table again, he took a metal spoon, and casually tore of a part of it, and put it in his mouth and began chewing on it like a snack, with a mischieviious playful expression and feelings. " I can tear apart pretty much anything, and I can eat pretty much almost everything. It's a great positive when I have to face enemies like demon hunters, oh, but it was always a challenge when it comes to everyday things. I am really glad my first friend was a Being capable of insanely quick and powerful regeneration, " his bright smile held some embarrassment. " You see, I was always alone before that, and I didn't really understand how I was wasn't how everybody was. I couldn't count how many times I'd break Hans's bones or squish his body bits when I would handle him. It was a time before language, you see, where we could only communicate with gestures. It was a time when I craved snuggles before concept of snuggling existed. Making first steps to gentleness was a total mess, and I never could have made it without Hans, and then many others that helped me afterwards... That's why I am so good now, you see! I wouldn't say I am actually a strong character acting like a weak one to blend in. I'd rather say I am a strong character that works hard to destroy as few things as possible... it's just me. "

[Mirach]

Senecio shook his head. "No, you're not acting like a weak character. The strength can be felt still, but it's a controlled one. It's incredibly tempting..."

[VisAnastasis]

" Me? Incredibly tempting? Look who's talking!" Creature laughed, but there was incredible warnth and joy in his voice, as he seemed delighted by Senecio's assessment." Hans was always brave with me even when all I seemed to be was a giant sea creature that was bemused by him - but you, my guy, are fearless! No, better than fearless... You are a guy who sees an abnormal patched up eyes of a chimera - and thinks it's hot!", Creature spoke, with clear wonder and delight in his lightly hoarse voice, as he reached for actor's face,  and caressed his lips, leaning innocently, with hunger in his eyes." Look at you, talking about temptation... I am the one that's ever tempted. The way you look at me makes me want you more and more each day... so, what do you say, you adorable fragile little thing? What do you want me to do about it? Do not forget I have given you unlimited wishes till the end of the day... "

[Mirach]

Senecio gulped. "Bind me," he said hoarsely. "Let me feel your measured strength."

[VisAnastasis]

" What an easy, doable wish... Well, I guess why not? " Tide teased playfully, as if they weren't planning on doing it anyway. " This generous Demon King will show you how *not* to slice of someone's hands while binding them! Practice makes perfect!" He spoke confidently, as his hands lowered to actor's, and he took rope from the table and vegan binding him, just like he asked, with new knowledge of safety measures he learnt from Eros.

[Mirach]

Senecio was tense in anticipation, bit he struggled a little against Tide's grip as he wanted to feel his strength and his own helplessness against it.

[VisAnastasis]

Tide was a little surprised at first, as he didn't expect Senecio to resist yet, but then, he smiled, going along with it.
" I thought we were still setting up the playing field, but why not? You didn't give me any instructions, though. Should I go easy on you and pretend you're almost getting away? Or should I just squash all of your hopes, like a proper captor? " Tide teased playfully, while indeed, giving him no chance to escape the grasp.

There was an incredible amount of control in his every movement, as he methodically tied his hands, and the actor could feel the pressure against the skin that was just enough to restrain him, but not injure him, and now that he knew more about Tide's self-control, he understood the reasons behind the specific manner in which demon would lightly press actor's skin with his fingertips as he tied him - it seemed that he was measuring how much strength to use based on how much his skin and muscles would bend under pressure, and used that knowledge to find the best balance. Instead of controlling and domineering, the peculiar creature was surrounded by rather smug satisfying feeling as it was depriving Senecio of freedom of movement, not really seeming to get how terrifying it might look to someone outside their game, as he was apparently rather pleased with how well it learned to tie safe knots and was indulging in the little success.

[Mirach]

Senecio's breath quickened in anticipation. He tested the bonds a few times, carefully at first, then with all his strength. "I'm ready," he whispered then, knowing Tide needs some reassurance.

[VisAnastasis]

That was right, indeed, as, being their first time doing all this, Tide felt more encouraged with the reassurance, after seeing actor struggle against the bonds.
" Let us... Try out the form then. You will tell me if you are too uncomfortable, right?" He whispered, and he stood a step or two in front of the actor, before he slowly closed his eyes, and his body began glowing a little and shimmering, as he began putting thought into creating a new form. After a moment, he slowly disappeared and appeared anew, with a look uncommon to him, similar to how he looked the first time they met, on the roof of the mansion ( https://i.pinimg.com/564x/3c/49/72/3c4972f206d5d2d562fbb62e9437c246.jpg ). The form was a touch different this time, though. There were six hands instead of four, each with different kind of texture, first being the roughest, and growing progressively less rough lower the pair of hands were. Likewise, while the previous form had sidewide and unsightly mouth, this mouth, although  still hardened and darkly coloured, looked more humanly proportioned, with jaw more fit for human communication - and judging by the shy but hungry way creature observed him while rubbing the corners of its new mouth, it seemed rather more fit for bitting, as jaw seemed firm, but it had no sharp teeth.

[Mirach]

Senecio bit his lip sensually. "Oh Beings..." he murmured, "that's perfect."

[VisAnastasis]

The large intimidating creature held feelings rather opposite to the way it appeared. It was strange to observe such a fierce-looking Being ooze with such a proud, contented response to the actor's statement. Tide's left hand from the first pair seemed almost as if it has moved on its own, and impulsively caressed Senecio's cheek. Its texture was rough and hardened, similar to sandpaper or broken rock, but the gesture was gentle. The demon was breathing more shallowly, as it stood before him and towered over him, while the right from his first-hand pair reached for the whip slowly.
" Would you look at that... a butterfly calling a caterpillar perfect. What has the world come down to? " Tide's hoarse voice came through, a little changed in this new form, but still recognizable, with its unmistakable warmth. He didn't move fully behind him, he just stepped a little to the side, while his left hand was still on the actor's cheek, as if he needed that little closeness to gather the courage to finally do the most important test left. His heavy horned head touched the side of the actor's forehead lightly - and then, with a swift decisive moment of truth and a hand trembling a little with anticipation, Tide swung the whip toward him, hitting Senecio's revealed back for the first time.

[Mirach]

Senecio flinched a bit, but the sound he made wasn't one of pain but of pleasure as he moaned like getting something he craved for a long time.

[VisAnastasis]

That specific tone that waѕ definitely not of suffering, combined with the fact that the whip only caused pain, but did not injure Senecio, just like Janus promised, seemed to finally fully reassure the demon, as the grin slowly spread upon its beastly face, and excitement slowly exchanged the initial worry. Tide did not rush though, and he seemed shyer at first, as this was both their first time doing something like this, and the first time they were intimate since they had a disagreement after Senecio gained the new perception.

With one arm, following the pattern Senecio asked for, doing it once every ten seconds or so, he used the whip, putting more strength into it over time as he grew more confident. With other hands thought, he slowly began to pass across actor's skin and caress him lightly, exploring with a bit of wonder how it felt in this new form, as it seemed it was different in this new body, for him, as well as Senecio. His gestures felt gentle, but there was a note of growing hunger within it, and the texture of all of his hands felt different, some rougher than the others, scrapping his bare skin a little. He didn't touch his intimate parts or do anything drastic at first, though, as if he was just slowly getting used to the new experience and setting the mood.
" So, my poor beloved prisoner... what exactly am I torturing you for? You must have done something really bad to be imprisoned and humiliated by the frightful Demon King, right? What are you being this time? A thief? A spy of the Spirit realm? A warrior set off to slay me? Something else completely unexpected? " Being whispered a tease in actor's ear quietly, with a playful tone, between strikes of the whip. " To be worth my wrath, it must be something pretty big, right? You bad, bad human... what did you do? "

[Mirach]

Senecio looked at him a bit uncertainly - it seemed he never got a choice before and wasn’t quite sure how to best respond and express what he wants. "N-No," he whispered hoarsely. "I'm not defiant, my King. I'm just... a lowly servant. I was clumsy... broke your favourite vase. But I did it on purpose, as you suspect. I wanted to be punished by you. I wanted your attention..."

[VisAnastasis]

" Wait, all this over a vase? Ah... Uhmm... I mean, yes? I guess I really like vases, then..." The creature got a little uncertain itself, as if, even under a role, its mind could not easily accept breaking of an object as a valid excuse for raising hand at anyone, and tried to fill in the gap of the story with something he found more plausible." Yes.... That vase was really special. It was the only thing I had left from a friend that left me a long time ago. And you destroyed it for attention?" He stepped back into the role with another swipe of the whip and a little grin, towering over him as he raised his chin with one hand." That sounds pretty defiant, if you ask me... Do you really deserve to be rewarded with the punishment?" The creature asked with the tease in its voice. " What would be a proper punishment for someone that wants a punishment, I wonder?"

[Mirach]

Senecio winced with the hit and closed his eyes, as if savouring it. "A lesson..." he whispered. "A punishment so hard it will teach me to never seek your attention that way again..."

[VisAnastasis]

" Well, that is quite a poor way to seek attention, alright. But likewise, that is too mild punishment, you little thing, " Demon replied playfully to his ear. " It's mere manual labour if I just punish you just by force. There is no challenge to it... " he spoke, while the caresses of his hands from before slowly grew firmer, restraining him even further, leaving him unable to pull away from him. With different moves of each hand and different textures, it felt overwhelming and threatening, as if he were handled by multiple people, not one - like in the past. As another swing of a whip ended on his back, one of the demon's hands dramatically slipped beneath the towel wrapped around his privates, scratching his thigh with the coarse palm. " Just physical restraint is too easy... Shouldn't I do something about your defiant mind and soul? Shouldn't I play with it all? You've been punished by others, but it's only proper that a punishment of a demon king is something you'll never forget... "

[Mirach]

Senecio kept his eyes closed, trembling a little with the touches arousing him. "I'm all ypurs, my King," he whispered hoarsely. "Do whatever you wish to me..."

[VisAnastasis]

" That may be a poor choice... You have no idea how boundless the greed of a demon can be... " the creature whispered quietly, with a shallower breath. Senecio could feel the tense lust, akin to deep hunger, growing slowly with the demon, and indeed it was unusual, but it reflected a lot of greed for closeness in a way Tide kept touching him. The towel finally fell as he began handling him more intimately, touching him in ways Senecio liked previous times. But despite gestures were the same, they felt different, because of a different form. Even when he would play more roughly before this, Tide's hands were always soft before, but now, even if it didn't have claws, the finger that slipped between his things was rigid and coarse, scratching and skinning the old scars within him. It hurt and felt violating as it explored him deeply, but it was hard to resist the growing pleasure. With the whip never stopping, and other strong hands never stopping restraining him and passing along his naked body, the experience was vulnerable and overwhelming. " Seine... do you remember when we spoke about your first times? " Demon King unexpectedly whispered to his ear as he handled him closely, words he kept deep in his thoughts easier to say in such a revealing moment. " When I wanted to understand, you told me, about the first time you felt pleasure at their hands... you were bound and whipped, just like this... And suddenly it felt good. The rougher they were, the better it felt... what do you think? Should I make it better, too, then? "

[Mirach]

Senecio's body tensed with the touches, the pain both enhancing the pleasure and countering it so that it could build up more slowly and higher. But the most enjoyable part to him was the paradoxical sense of freedom that came with complete helplessness. It took him a while to register the question and reply to it. "Please..." he whispered.

[VisAnastasis]

Being grinned more widely as it continued, both with the touches and whip.
" Since it is not a safeword, I will assume it's an affirmative please... " he whispered back to him. Senecio could perceive the growing tension of arousal with the creature, though it was much more gradual than it would be with himself - based on what both Tide and Hans said, demons usually needed quite long to reach the same state as humans, but he could sense through Tide's feelings that he grew more daring and possessive, touching him with more urgency and desire to grow even closer. And with the next strike of the whip - he finally touched Senecio's soul, too.
It was different from previous times, though. It wasn't physical touch so it didn't feel rougher, like with different hands, but this was the first time Tide touched this very deep and specific part, like a hunter that has followed its prey for a long time and finally took action. It was a part that was most affected and scarred by the bad experiences he had gone through. Flashes of the memories and feelings of fear and humiliation when he was a defenceless child were brought forth with it, but something else was stronger. It was a feeling of Tide's essence, enveloped and pressed firmly against it, like wrapping around a sore limb. The firm and tight pressure of a presence against that part, especially in these circumstances, was painful, dancing on the thin border between violating and desirable - after all, even if it was too intimate, it was Tide's presence, whom Senecio trusted, and that held strong, pure, and refreshing feeling. It wasn't a healing presence, like Death's, but a soothing one and the actor could swear he could smell a strong salty scent of the sea and flowers in it, washing over him. Pressure turned into firm stroking, and it felt as if his soul was tended to, much like he was tending to Tide while grooming his monster form.

The whipping continued, and Tide forced the actor's legs open fully, reaching more deeply and roughly within him, passing across the hidden physical scars within his body, while his mind was going over terribly old scars on his soul more and more. It was an experience tailored to push and explore him to the edge. Senecio felt as it time was slowing down and every second lasted forever, as the experience was growing engraved into his mind, and overwhelming sensations of the present fought against the engraved shameful memories and sensations of the past.
