Mating Dance

Summary:

Percy, prince of Atlantic, wants to see Luke's Mating Dance. Luke doesn't know what possessed him to agree.

Notes:

Sup sluts, guess who just got out of prison? Kidding! Unless the unemployment line counts as prison, woot woot! I got a couple long fics and a one shot or two in the chamber rn so stuff to look forward, but in the meantime I hope y'all enjoy this little idea I had a while ago and have yet to write something longer for. Bird Luke and Fish Percy are everything to me, and yet I have not committed a sizable amount of time to writing about them because the other AUs I'm writing have captured too much brain space. Looking forward to sharing those with y'all in like 6 months if I'm being optimistic.
ALSO: though writing these two has not been a thing that's happened yet I do find myself drawing them on occasion so I might post those either here or on my Tumblr (same name as my A03) Luke description is inspired by a hawk :3.
See y'all in the end notes, hope you enjoy!!!

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

The harpy had never felt confident enough to show his mating dance to anyone of his own species, but the siren prince wouldn't know if his form was off. Safe from prying eyes in their secluded cave grotto didn't help Luke's nerves.

One wing covered his chest, the other fanned out over his head as he focused on his foot work, hopping and twirling to show off his vitality. Of course a proper mating dance involves eye contact with one's prospective mate. Luke tried not to flinch as he met the siren's eyes, feeling less like the hunter he was, and more like the prey he should have caught before it convinced him to put himself on display to be ogled.

Luke was no bird of paradise, but Percy thought the neutral toned stripes and scalloped patterns in his feathers looked more beautiful than any set of scales he'd ever seen.

The harpy had enough of being gawked at. Percy smiled as Luke lowered his wings back to their resting position, flushed red and breathing heavy

“I accept.” Percy said, crawling onto dry land, “How should we start?”

“Excuse me?” this fucking fish man would be the death of him.

Notes:

Per my previous psychotic breaks in authors notes, Manifestation works and karma is my partner in crime, and I give them damn good head. Long time fans might remember, but if you're new, per my normal fashion, I shall now be a bratty bottom about my manifestions and enjoy watching what the universe has in store for me: Y'all know what I LOVE? The people who wanna sabotage my happiness. Dear golly I sure do love shifty people who poke at me trying to get me to break, they really do help me learn. You know what they say? Keep your friends close and your enemies closer, and I do indeed hope all the people who mess with my peace stay right within arms reach... Okay that should be good, telling y'all the work tea is delicious 😋. Hope y'all enjoyed and have a great birthday bash. Remember to stay hydrated, give yourself a hug, and work on your mating dance. Byeeee :3
