    Summary

    Leon fails to escape Saddler's influence.
    -~-
    "Drink," Saddler says, plush as velvet, and presses the rim of the cup to their parted lips. Their eyes close as the thick, sweet liquid pours over their tongue, drinking deeply until their stomach feels heavy with the substance. "Yes, that's it. Perhaps you are merely in need of more time for recovery---your body and spirit are taxed by your courage in joining our covenant."

    Summary

    Krauser's...changed since he got his parasite.
    -~-
    The first thing Leon becomes aware of is how cold he is, hard stone leeching the heat from his muscles where it presses into his naked back. Instinctively, he curls around his exposed abdomen—only to find that he can’t, wrists and ankles stretched spread-eagle across the slab and secured with biting metal bands.

    Summary

    Written for Whumptober 2024 prompt "Body Horror"
    -~-
    Anticipation flutters when they begin to drape his waist and legs with thin, cool fabric, a syringe injected carefully into the bag of saline above his head that he assumes will put him out. Sure enough, his senses begin to dull, the world going soft around the edges as the pressure of the restraints fade into the background—but he stays fully conscious and aware, heart rate picking up on the monitor the longer it takes to kick in.

    Summary

    Chief Irons is a paranoid man.
    -~-
    "So, you saw something you shouldn't have." Irons continues his rant gleefully, chuckling over the clatter of glass. A sharp, pungent smell splits the air, and Leon can't help but freeze. He recognizes that, too, from dissecting frogs in eleventh grade.

    Formaldehyde.

    Summary

    That was when the monster stopped, holding Leon up, as if considering him. It had no visible eyes anywhere and Leon doubted it could see him, but it kept him still, and air was heavy with expectation. Did the creature now think that it was supposed to merge with Leon? There was a squirming sensation in Leon’s chest, strange warmth radiating from somewhere beneath his sternum, as if the parasite inside of him was answering the call of its kind.

    “Hate to disappoint you,” Leon said, his tone cocky despite the way his heart was beating nervously, cold dread creeping up his spine. “But this reunion is over.” He grabbed his knife, yanking it free of its sheath, before sinking it up to the hilt in the thickest of the tentacles that had wrapped around him.

    -
    Or the one wherein Leon gets thoroughly monster-fucked.
