He was going to be in so much trouble.
Bittergiggle simply couldn’t help himself, the constant nagging in his head that his snake part kept telling him to do it, and eventually it got to the point he gave in and did it.
Marbles was none the wiser to what was going on, as the jester did a good job of pretending nothing was wrong for a while, and so Marbles didn’t think anything of it.
But every time the two partners hung out or were near each other, the snake part of Bittergiggle kept nagging at him, kept telling him to do it.
‘ Eat them, eat them, come on, ’ it would hiss, ‘ they’re prey to you, it’s normal, eat them, eat them! ’ But the other part of him knew that no, it wouldn’t be normal, they weren’t two animals in the forest or something, they were two science experiments in the basement of some building! And he knew that, but still that snake part nagged, loud and hungry.
‘ Eat them, EAT THEM ! ’
And so one day, he did.
They were just sitting in the employee training sector, Marbles talking away about something, Bittergiggle was a little ashamed he wasn’t paying attention, zone out and vision unfocused, but it wasn’t entirely his own fault. Thankfully, Marbles didn’t notice this and just kept prattling on about their topic, thinking the jester was just listening intently like he usually did.
What snapped both of them out of their thoughts and whatnot was Bittergiggle’s stomach suddenly sharply growling, making the jester himself jump a bit.
Marbles wasn’t very bothered by it and simply asked if he needed something to snack on, which seemed to be the only words they had said in a while that Bittergiggle had registered and heard. He nodded his head yes.
When Marbles got up, they had their backs to Bittergiggle. They were saying something, but again, Bittergiggle didn’t hear it; all he could hear were the thoughts of his snake half.
‘ They aren’t paying attention! They have their back turned! Do it now! Do it now! ’
Bittergiggle stood up, but didn’t walk with Marbles; instead, he readied himself.
‘ Do it now! Eat them! EAT THEM! ’
The next series of events was a blur to the jester, his arms stretched forward and wrapped around Marbles, making the magician squeak in surprise, and just as fast as that happened, Marbles was pulled back and had their head stuffed into the jester's mouth.
Marbles struggled against Bittergiggles arms, but to no avail, and found themself going further and further down the jester’s throat.
Bittergiggle, on the other hand, was so happy. As the magician was swallowed down, he couldn’t help but groan, they were so warm, so delicious! Part of him wished he’d done this sooner, another part felt terribly bad that he’d done this so spontaneously.
A few more big swallows, and all that was left out of Marbles were their feet and the tip of their tail. By this point, Bittergiggle had unwrapped his arms from Marbles’ body and was now using his hands to help push them down further. Although he was a bit curious, his green hand trailed down to his gut and felt how much it had bulged out with maybe half of Marbles in it, he could feel them moving around a bit as well!
Bittergiggle tipped his head back and let gravity help him get Marbles the rest of the way down, and with one more swallow, Marbles slipped into his guts and curled up nicely within him.
The jester let out a pleased sigh, cheeks a little teal from the excursion, and fumbled himself back onto the couch, completely blissed out at finally, finally having Marbles all to himself; curled up inside his gut like his snake half wanted. Bittergiggle subconsciously rubbed his hands over his gut, feeling every little bump and movement Marbles did within him. It felt amazing, to him at least.
One of Marbles’ movements was a little quick and sharp, making his gut tremble loudly, which made Bittergiggle worry that he’d gone a little too far with all this. He suddenly let out a loud belch that, once done, made his gut stop trembling and made him feel even more blissful than he was before.
Bittergiggle slumped back on the couch and gave his gut a few good pats, absolutely pleased with himself. And he stayed like that for a minute, idly rubbing his gut and just soaking up how good it felt to have such a big meal all to himself.
“You could have just asked me, ya know?”
Marbles’ voice cut through Bittergiggle’s zoing out, their tone quick and too the point, sharp and monotone, as if it had been obvious. Bittergiggle’s eyes snapped open (he hadn’t even realized he’d shut them), and his cheeks went even brighter teal than before. He let out a nervous little laugh. He tried to crack a joke to hide his nervousness, but he stuttered it out, so it didn’t land. The rolling of Marbles’ eyes was almost audible, but they didn’t say much else, just mumbling a ‘ next time, I guess. ’
Next time? There would be a next time? Bittergiggle got a little excited at that, he’d like it if they could do this again! Although under better circumstances.
For now, though, he just got comfy on the couch; he wasn’t going anywhere with Marbles in his gut, the last thing he needed was to get caught looking like this, he wasn’t sure if he’d be able to explain well enough what happened.
Marbles got comfy as well, deciding to just let the Jester have his fun with them and then later have a good, long talk with him about all this, but all in all, they didn’t mind being in his guts, it was a little wet and warm, but that was okay with them. It made Marbles feel oddly good to be so close to Bittergiggle, in a way, but those were thoughts for another time.
The two partners just fell asleep there, Bittergiggle being so full that he couldn’t stay awake, and Marbles being so warm that it just lulled them to sleep.
The last thing Bittergiggle thought before his body and mind gave in to the encroaching sleep was that when Marbles was out, he was going to be in so much trouble with them .
