Chapter Text
Despite being a gun for hire, an associate of the mob, and even helping out Pentious with his engineering projects in whatever way he could including near breaking his back trying to insist he could move the box of heavy machine parts and equipment, this, was somehow always the most exhausting part of Arackniss’s day. The heat of their little excursions was always a lot for him, while Pent’s cold-blooded scaly body could handle it, his little Nissy’s thick fur always caused problems. Still, they both thoroughly enjoyed it. This most recent one wasn’t exactly planned for, but they both enjoyed the spontaneity, especially getting to see each other in their work attires like this, there was something about the way the other dressed that always hit just the right spot for both of them. As Arackniss pulled up his pants from the entire process, and he and Pent embraced in a long, healthy makeout session, he couldn’t stop thinking about how good his lover looked during the whole process. There was something about the snake’s proper and dapper attire that really struck just the right chord for him. Having a strong, true, gentleman have his way with him is something the spider never thought he would fantasize about, but now here was doing exactly that after just living it. He tried to pull away from the kiss for just a moment, both to catch a breath and get a better look at his man, but he only got so far when while pushing away from it he felt his groin move across Pent’s tail and felt his lover grab harder on his rear and thigh, letting out a mix between a gasp and a moan as the hand cupped around his face pulled him back in, for another round.
They went at it for a moment longer before Arackniss pushed away. “Are you quite alright my dear?” Pentious asked with a concerned tone. Arackniss’s constant grumpy expression which hardly went away even during moments of intimacy, mixed with exhaustion can often end up looking like regret or distress, which frequently concerned his lover.
“Yeah, yeah I’m good just, fuck this is alot y’know, need a break.” Arackniss responded. “Ya’know you can never do anything to hurt me, ‘specially not when you’re loving me so good. Just need a breath once in a while, capiche?”
Pent chuckled softly, “I know, we do go over this almost every time we do this.”
“Then why ya keep asking?” Arackniss asked in a way that would sound offended if not for the smile on his face.
“I need to always ensure that you are happy my dear. A true gentleman like myself would never wish to batty-fang their lover.” Pent responded coyly and with a level of confidence that he should never use with his manner of speaking.
Arackniss held back a chuckle, something he had become exceptional at being in Pentious’s presence so often, “Naturally.”
This entire time Niss was slowly losing composure as his groin rested on Pent’s tail, his legs slightly hitched up and gripping its side, while Pent expertly balanced the little spider. Slowly he bit down more on his lip as the conversation progressed and struggled to hold back a moan with little hisses. Arackniss wasn’t too far off the seat itself, his legs could most certainly and easily reach it if he wanted, but he knew it felt much, much better to let himself rest upon his lover’s long thick tail.
“Now that is a lewd face,” Pent said in an almost mocking tone, “you really are too adorable for your own good.” he said as he petted Niss’s cheek
Arackniss held back every expletive that raced across his mind as he said “God, why are you so-,” he gasped a little “so, so attractive?”
Pent chuckled and leaned in for another kiss, ‘Niss obliged him of course. It was a quick one but nonetheless, they both thoroughly enjoyed it.
“Doesn’t answer my question but I appreciate it,” The spider joked, as they both laughed.
“Well, why don’t you try and inform me, why you think I am ‘so, so attractive’ as you put it...” Pent said imitating Arackniss and ending with a smirk
“Well like you said you are such a fine gentleman,” Niss responded imitating Pentious as revenge, “Actually that is part of the reason. Ya treat me so right, just like how a man should treat his gal, or, guy in this scenario I guess. To go along with that you are so exceptionally handsome. You didn’t seem it at first, no offense by the way, but you are really strong, that tail has got some mighty force behind it.”
“It sounds like you’re describing a real manly man, a proper lady killer as it would seem,” Pent said as he gently moved his tail ever so slightly causing Niss to slide across just barely causing a hitch in his voice. “Do you like strong, handsome men who treat you like a proper gal?”
“Yes- yes sir,” Arackniss responded nodding. “Oh and not just that- like, most of all if anything,” Arackniss hesitated for a second. “The way ya dress and hold yerself; and aside from the outdated phrases, though those are charmin’ too, how you speak, all of it is just perfect. A real man of class, and I gotcha all to myself.”
“More like I have you all to myself,” Pentious responded.
“Yeah-” Arackniss gasped again, feeling Pent moving under him “I’m all yours baby…” He moved in and embraced the snake, as they both held each other close and began giving the other all the love they needed. As Pentious placed a kiss on ‘Niss’s neck, the spider spoke up again, “Y’know despite all this talk of you being a proper gentleman, you’ve never taken me on a proper date before…”
Just then all of Pent’s confidence and the suave aura he had built up disappeared, “Oh- I’m quite sorry, I suppose, I-,” the snake stammered.
“Pent.” Arackniss interrupted him, “What you’re supposed to say is, how bout I take you out on one then.” he finished with a sly tone.
Pent’s eyes lit up “Nissy- are- are you asking me on a date?!” He said, visibly gushing. You could practically see the words ‘oh no’ growing on Arackniss’s face. Before he could respond, Pentious cut him off, practically flopping the spider straight onto the floor off his tail, ‘Niss barely catching himself on the victorian style loveseat they had been sitting in. “The answer is yes!” Pent boasted “I must start preparations right away! Egg boys! prepare the lab!”
‘Niss groaned but by the time he got up it was already too late, and Sir dork had already sealed himself away in his chambers. Niss picked himself up and wiped his shirt off, and he guessed that was a victory by some measure. He would make his way out of the airship somehow, certainly not easily, and once home he flopped himself on his bed tired. He was hoping he could’ve spent this night cuddled up to Pentious but seems he screwed himself out of that in the best way possible. As he lay back he thought of what he could do to prepare for the date, and also thought about the fact that he had no idea when the date would actually be.
