Before The Show ________________ The dull hum of fluorescent lightbulbs filling the store with a low roar of mildly annoying white noise. The aisles stood well maintained yet devoid of any significant number of customers. The store itself was occupied by only three forms. That of a horse, dressed in a single navy blue set of coveralls, a bluejay, wearing a white tanktop and blue shorts that matched the tone of his feathers, and, of course, a strange feline deer hybrid, wearing a pair of blue jeans and a loose fitting orange T-Shirt with a black paw plastered over the front. That stallion resided behind the counter, mulling over a near empty till, halfheartedly watching a nature documentary. The other two shuffled about towards the back of the store in the ‘body wellness’ section, searching over the many shelves of products, that is, until one decided to break the silence… “Hey Jay…” Vallis said whilst holding up a bottle of talon and beak polish and moisturiser “... Weren’t you looking for this?” “You know, I think it is..” Replied the bird “But is that the right kind? Because… there is a difference in product you know” There was a palpable silence for brief moment as an uncomfortable glance was exchanged “Oh, uh… I didn’t know” Replied Vallis bashfully, rubbing the back of his neck with his free hand “I thought it was all the same thing” “Ohh-no-no-no my friend” Chuckled Jay “There is such a massive difference, you see…” Jay had moved across the aisle and stood now, directly next to valis whilst pointing a single talon toward the bottom of the bottle “There’s a difference in the types of oils used, it all depends on the Keratin density and aeration of the beaks and stuff” “What?” Vallis continued with a very confused expression “What does that even mean man?” “Think about it like the difference between me and a toucan, toucan’s have massive beaks and they’re a lot denser than a bluejays, a toucan would require a more specialised oil to help manage with their uniquely structured beak, it would be the same for a crane or a more long, yet thinner beak, it's all about density and the quality of the beak. The talons though? Anything works just fine, it's mostly the beaks that require the specificity” “Oh… that makes sense actually…” Vallis finished, now less confused and more annoyed at himself for not understanding it to begin with “So, what kind of bird is this for then?” “This…” answered Jay, grabbing the bottle from Vallis’ paws and skimming over the label “... Is for woodpeckers…” he said, now placing the bottle back on the shelf and beginning to comb over the racks “...Ah, here it is…” He said with satisfaction as he grasped a significantly smaller bottle off a lower shelf “... This is what I should use” “So… It's just a smaller bottle with a different oil in it?” asked Vallis, still very much confused about the semantics “I suppose you could say that?” Jay said, now a little confused himself “I never really took the time to think about it, just kinda bought this type since its what I’ve always used, even when I was a fledgling I was using this stuff” “It’s that old?” Vallis joked, chuckling to himself slightly, clearly more amusing himself than Jay “Now wait just a minute there bud, just because I'm a couple years older than you doesn't mean you get to call me old” Scolded Jay “What?” Vallis continued to chuckle “You are old, and don’t say ‘A couple’ like you can get away with it…” Vallis said whilst giving Jay a playful shove “... you’re seven years older than me” “Oh well excuse me then, I didn’t realise we were shaming people for living now” Jay continued to scold, beginning to now catch on to the apparent joke his friend was making “Look, I'm just saying that if you’ve been using it for twenty nine years then… Well, you're old, and so’s the polish.” Vallis said, now dialing it back, feeling as if he had won “Okay then. Have it your way then, I'm just saying, I’d much rather look nice and feel old than look old. You can do whatever you want with your fur, but don’t judge the face and feathers” Jay said with a stern finality “Okay man… but…” Vallis said, beginning to start up again “... you may have to deal with feathers and… well… such a nice beak…” he said as he playfully tapped on Jay’s beak with the tip of one his claws “But c’mon man, fur is so much harder to manage, and don’t even get me started on the damn antlers…” he said whilst placing his hands on their respective antlers “... These things alone cost me a small fortune, let alone my damn fur care routine. I’m paying nearly half my rent’s worth just to keep this healthy shine on my coat.” he continued as he drug his hands down his hips “Now… you may have a point there, but… Well imagine how it is for me, I molt, you just shed. Imagine getting a non consensual haircut every year and looking like a damn demon made of skin for a month, you get to keep your looks year round” “We are not doing this again, we can talk about this back at your apartment if you want to continue arguing about which one of us has it worse, but I for one…” He said now, walking away from Jay into an adjacent aisle and quickly grabbing a handful of different colored bottles before returning back to Jay “... Would like to finish shopping so we can go back to your place, play some games, and then go to the concert and party until the sun rises” “You know, that sounds pretty dope man, lets do that” Jay said in agreeance The duo, after a couple of more minor exchanges regarding how hard it is to maintain their ‘perfect’ bodies, finally made their way to the register where the stallion stood watching the documentary, halfheartedly fiddling with one of his pocket buttons. He quickly shook himself out of whatever trance he had found himself in at the sight of movement coming towards his direction, he then began to speak loud and enthusiastically. “Well if it isn’t my favorite regular. How's it going Val?” Asked the towering man from behind the countertop. “Same old, same old, just keeping myself feeling fresh, and you Max?” “Just about the same as you, just trying to keep this place open for my, how many was it again? three customers… well, four now considering you brought a friend in here this time…” He continued with enthusiasm, now turning to face Jay, “Poor guy, he drug you in here didn’t he?” “No… I came on my own volition…” Jay said shyly, his tone then quickly shifted as he held up the bottle of product “although, you sell this brand much cheaper than the mega market, I think you might be seeing me around here much more often if these are the kind of bargains your running with” “No kidding!” Roared Max, now turning his attention back to Vallis “Good boy, you seem to have brought me another victim!” “I keep telling you that if you continue to refer to your customers as ‘victims’ you’ll sooner go out of business than gain another” “Ehh, you seem to keep coming back so i’d say its working just fine” Max said with a slight smugness “Sure, anyways, how much do I owe you for the product?” Vallis asked, now very clearly eager to leave “Well lets see…” he began quickly scanning the three bottles, the number on the register showing ‘$32.78‘ "Thirtytwo seventyeight my friend” Vallis quickly drew his wallet and fiddled around with its insides until he drew a debit card with a feral deer on it, labeled ‘Stag Express’, “Here we go” he said happily as he swiped the card through the reader, watching the light flash green, “First try too” “It's always interesting to see your custom card…” Max said with an almost annoyed tone “... still so strange that you chose to bank with those guys, I mean come on, those guys are like the bottom of the barrel in terms of loans and credit building, and don't even get me going on their customer service…” “Max…” Vallis interrupted “... I just like the mascot, I could not care less about the financial benefits, I don’t take out loans or anything” “Suit yourself then, and now that you’ve paid…” Max said with a slight smirk creeping across his muzzle “... Get the hell out of my store and don’t come back until your either ready to spend more of your money, or take me up on my offer for me to take you on a date” “You wish Max, I'll see you next week, take care, and Jay, don’t let this degenerate rope you into letting him tie you down, he may seem nice now, but if he takes you home…. Well, you won't walk for weeks, I saw the aftermath of his last ‘Date’ “ He said rolling his eyes and beginning to make for the door, “don’t fall for it” “Hey, I’ll have you know…” Max started “... He asked for it, hell, he begged for it, and who can blame him. If either of you saw what I was working with, you wouldn’t be able to do anything but beg for it.” “Okay then” Said Jay, with a slight tinge of curiosity in his voice “What are you working with?” “Jay!” Vallis nearly yelled “DO. NOT. ENCOURAGE. HIM. Pay and leave” “Oh fine…” Jay said dejected, “Your no fun Val” “Yeah, you sure aren't" Max chimed in “We have something important to do tonight Max, I need him” Vallis retorted, now taking his leave and walking out the sliding glass doors at the front of the store. “Oh well… will that be cash or card… Jay?” Max asked almost seductively “Cash” Jay replied, oblivious, reaching into his chest fluff from the side of his tanktop, pulling out a small wallet and retrieving a handful of bills “How much do I owe you?” “Just twelve dollars” “Okay, you can break a twenty?” Asked Jay with a slight redness in face, he was well aware of the near empty cash drawer as he had overheard Max grumbling about it when they had come in “I can break just about anything” Max said, leaning slightly over the countertop now “Okay” Jay said nervously, handing the bill off to Max, he then watched as Max reached into his coveralls and drew out a significantly larger wallet. Jay watched as the horse effortlessly flipped open the wallet and drew out a small portion of ones and a single five. For a split second, Jay saw the all too familiar golden flash of an XXL condom from the inner fold of Max’s wallet, causing his feathers to ruffle slightly. Max then slammed down the change on the counter and quickly placed the twenty in his wallet “Can I get you a recite?” Max asked, slightly nodding his head to Jay. “Uhh, yeah… sure” Jay said, slightly flustered as he watched Max reach back towards the till, ripping off the small piece of already printed paper. Jay then watched as Max grabbed a pen and scribbled something on the backside of the recite before handing it over to him. Jay fumbled it in his hands for a brief moment before flipping it over to be met with a large circle, a phrase simply reading ‘Call Me’ followed by a heart and phone number he could only assume to be Max’s. “Have a good one there Jay” Max said with a wink “Look forward to hearing your beautiful voice again sometime, and even more so to possibly hearing your chirps” He finished with a slight grin “Yeah… see you again sometime Max” Jay barely managed to squawk out before quickly leaving the store, stuffing the recite into his breast pocket. Outside he saw Vallis propped up against a stone pillar underneath the awning. He stood there tapping away on his phone, not even noticing Jay’s sudden appearance besides him. “Uh, Val?” Jay said with a slight inquisition, taping Vallis’ shoulders, shaking him out of his technological trance “Yeah Jay?” Vallis replied “Is he always that flirtatious with his customers?” Jay asked with a slight concern “No. only the ones he likes, you and I are just lucky is all” “Well then, that makes me feel better and worse at the same time” “Ehh, I wouldn’t pay him any mind, he’s as about as promiscuous as I am, the only difference is he actually uses his dick to think, not his brain” “No shit” Jay said with a comically serious tone “Seriously, I think it's actually so large it has its own brain, its impressive honestly” Vallis said, accompanying the serious tone “The man is a medical mystery” “Sure” Jay said with a chuckle, “Lets get back to my place and just relax before the main event of the day” “You read my mind man” said Vallis “You read my frickin’ mind” And with that, as Vallis pushed off the support beam, uprighting himself on the ground. He then began in a stride as Jay quickly brought up the rear, the two of them then began to make their way up the sidewalk past a handful of parked cars and uninteresting stores, around the bend and past the roadsign, and well on their way to Jay’s apartment which resided just on the edge of town. *** The apartment complex was relatively well kept if not slightly neglected. The beige spackle walls slightly peeled and the windows were slightly tinted grey from sun bleaching, it was apparent to Vallis that the complex itself was old, very old, but apparently still fully functional and hospitable. The complex itself was five floors large and stood alone at the edge of town, past it he could see the makings of a freeway leading off into the distant, much larger city. To the other side was a smaller building he assumed to be the main office for the leasers and management. As the two of them made their way up the staircase onto the third floor’s balcony walkway. He could see a small pool equipped with all the amenities one could hope for in such an establishment as fine as this one. He could see a small cluster of poorly kept sunning chairs meant for those who wished to sunbathe, a small maintenance closet with peeling paint, and a small deck made of what he assumed to be the cheapest wood money could buy. Making their way past a few of the numbered doors, he counted to himself ‘83, 84, 85, 86…’ and stopping at 87 he watched as Jay reached into his breast and pulled out a small numbered key with a label matching the number on the door. Jay then pushed the key into the door, twisting the lock and pushing open the pale blue door and making his way inside. Inside the apartment was a small assortment of furniture, a single lone couch paired with a recliner accompanying it to the right side, a lone coffee table sat on an oriental rug, cluttered with newspapers and cups. To the other side of the room sat a small flatscreen TV sat in the middle of a color matching entertainment center. Further on, in the kitchen, a small breakfast bar created a minor barrier, preventing the two rooms from blending. Inside the kitchen stood a single four seater table with three chairs, an antiquated stove and fridge, and a few curtain covered cabinets. On the back wall sat a single lone window with moth-eaten curtains, a small beam of sun shone through, partially illuminating the rest of the room. To the right of the kitchen was a hallway that led to the bedrooms and bathroom. “Nice place you got” Vallis said, making his way inside and onto the couch “You don’t gotta lie to me man, i know its a shithole” Jay replied, now in the kitchen, grabbing two glasses from the one of the cabinets and washing them out in the sink “Whaaat? It’s not that bad man, at least you got somewhere to live” Vallis quickly shot back, now getting increasingly more comfortable on the couch “Say what you will, hey, what do you want to drink? We got milk, water, uh… nectar?” “Nectar? Isn’t that what hummingbirds drink? What do you have any of that for?” Vallis questioned “I don't know man, buddy of mine turned me onto it, and I liked the taste” Replied Jay, now pouring himself a half glass of Nectar “Well, I guess I’ll try some?” Vallis answered, now interested in the idea of some exotic avian drink “Okay, I will warn you, it might be a bit rough for you. Avians metabolise and process things differently than mammals, but I guess we’ll have to see. Never actually fed anything like this to one of y’all before” Jay warned, now making his way into the living room with two glasses of the pale pink nectar. Sitting down besides him and offering one of the glasses “Im sure it can’t be that bad, besides, im sure they’d put a warning label on it if it wasn’t meant to be drank by ‘us mammals’ “ He finished as he took the glass from Jay, setting it down on the table “Suit yourself, and if you don't like it, I'll just drink it” Jay replied, now taking a large gulp from his cup and sighing in satisfaction. Vallis, now turning his attention to the table, scanned the surface area of it. The newspapers were recent,’The Neighborhood Squacker’ it read, the top of the pile had been printed within a week of today. The headline stood out to him ~DISAPPEARANCES REACH NEW HIGH~ ~AS OFFICIALS CONTINUE TO DENY~ “Jeeze, it’s still going on?” Asked Vallis, now picking up the newspaper and reading further. “What?” Jay asked, now turning his attention to Vallis “Oh, the disappearances? Yeah, it been happening for about a month now I think” “That long? I’ve only been following it for two weeks, it’s a wonder nobody's been caught yet, I mean, how many are connected to the case now, fifty?” Asked Vallis, now reaching for the glass of nectar on the table and taking a small sip. The liquid was sweeter than anything he had ever drank before, it tasted like pure sugar in liquid form. He still managed to get it down but quickly placed the cup back on the table. “Try eightyseven Val, and that's just the places a calling card was found” Replied Jay, now with a serious expression on his face “Calling card?” Vallis choked out, now tilting his head slightly in confusion “I never heard anything about that” “Oh yeah, Reedy told me, said that a few of the guys on the force got caught trying to take a few from the evidence locker as a keepsake, kinda sick if you ask me. For all we know the ones who went missing might as well be dead, and taking a reminder of that? That's not cool at all” Jay said, now leaning back into the couch and downing the rest of his nectar “That is pretty messed up. When do you think someone is gonna get charged with this?” Vallis asked, concerned for Jay’s welling. In truth, Vallis himself had nothing to worry about as he lived alone in the woods. The only reason he even was following the case was out of worry for Jay and Max as they both lived within the range in which the disappearances had been happening. “Yeah, it’s rough, this is just absolute madness, I personally think it's more than just one guy, it's just too many people for a single person to manage” Jay said, now rising again and making his way towards the TV and switching it on. The two of them were then met with a harsh blue light with white text saying ‘Line In HDMI 1’. Vallis then watched as Jay reached behind the TV and drawing out two handheld controllers “Yeah, if I had to guess, it’s like a group of people, like five or six” Vallis said, now eager to end the conversation at the thought of playing some games “Anyways, I wouldn’t worry about it for too much longer, Reemy says they got a lead so I give it a week longer tops before they guy is behind bars. So then…” Jay said, now sitting down on the couch and handing a controller to Vallis “Whatcha thinking? Maybe some UltraBrawl? Or maybe some DMZ Warriors?” “I don't know man, I was wondering if we could do something like… Botanic Panic?” Vallis said wincing in anticipation “Seriously dude? Botanic Panic?” Jay said, not annoyed but more so confused “Out of everything you wanna play you pick like the most boring thing” “I just like the more relaxed and slow-paced gameplay, it requires more thought and less reflexes” “Suit yourself, I suppose some people just aren't cut out for the absolute awesomeness that is UltraBrawl, and i’ll still kick your ass in BP anyways” “You wish man, you forget I literally do this for a living” Vallis said smugly “You underestimate me, I have waaaaaaay to much spare time and two roommates, I have no reason to not play these dumb games” “Okay then, if you're that confident…” Vallis said, now turning to Jay and resting a paw on his thigh “Wanna make this more interesting?” “And how do you propose we do that?” Asked Jay intently “I think you have a pretty good idea Jay” Replied Vallis, now working his hand further up on Jay’s hip “I think I do… but I might need some more clarification “Well, the concert isn’t for like, another four hours. And last I checked, you said nobody was gonna be home for another three…” Vallis continued, with an ever mischievous grin growing across his muzzle “Are you proposing we play for favors?” Jay asked intently, now grasping Vallis’ paw “Exactly” Vallis replied, pointing a finger gun at Jay “Okay then…” Jay replied, even smugger than Vallis “... Just gonna warn you, I won't be gentle to you when I win” “You are so on Jay” Vallis finished, now firmly grasping the controller And with that, Jay pressed the home button on his controller causing the console to whirl to life and the TV screen to fill with the start-up menu of the console. Jay eagerly booted up Botanic Panic and selected Vs. mode. The two of them then quickly got to work picking their specializations, then initial land plots, and then finally selecting their first plants. And with that, the games began as the two of them went dead silent in concentration as they both furiously strategised their next moves. *** ________________ The deer rushed between each row of plants, rapidly watering and pruning each one with the skill, precision and speed matched by none. The fluorescent lights shone brightly over the seemingly endless rows of corn stalks, cherry trees, and cotton flowers, as the deer continued to work ceaselessly, not a single motion wasted. His hives thumped rhythmically as quickly gathered bag upon bag of nondescript harvests, now making a beeline for the door with the bags bound to his back and carried in his hands. Now rushing outside, the sun beaming down on him, he threw the bags one by one, as fast as he could into the back of his truck. Quickly getting in the driver's seat and peeling out of the driveway, a trail of smoke following shortly behind. Shortly after, tailing behind was another similarly colored truck flying down the roadway. The Deer, turning around to see his pursuer, quickly slammed his hoof down on the gas pedal and began to speed faster and faster down the expanse of road. The driver of the second truck, a cheetah, pressed harder and harder on the gas with his paw to no avail. The cars flew down the roadway, a single building now stood in the horizon, a small flower shop with a yellow and red color scheme sat alone. The trucks now pulling up on the shop swiftly parked. The deer bolted out and gathered the bags from the back of the truck just as the Cheetah pulled in and jumped out of the car's window, not even bothering to open the door. The Cheetah moved with more vigor and speed than the deer, rapidly gathering the bags from the back of his truck. But it was too late, the deer ran inside and slammed the door closed behind him. There stood the cheetah, frozen in disbelief. He stood still and silent, as the world faded to black. On screen now, and single phrase showed in plain green text: -Player 2 Win- “Yeah! In your face Jay!” Vallis said, jumping off the couch and turning to face Jay, he sat with his face buried in his wings in utter defeat “I told you I was better!” Jay let out a long and drawn out groan “Duuuuuuuuude, fuck… The only reason you won that was because of the damn deer’s passive, that increased fertiliser production speed is killer man” “Dude, I played a low rated character, forgive me but weren't you playing the best character in the game? Increased move speed and action speed is just a free win. And you still lost!” Vallis argued, now reaching for the table and chugging the remaining nectar in his cup “Whatever man, good game” Jay said, rising to his feet and outstretching and claw for a handshake “Yeah, good game” Vallis said, outstretching his paw to meet Jay’s “Now, if my memory serves me correctly, you said we had three hours before your roommates came back and…” Valis continued, looking down to check his watch “... we got about an hour and half left, and if I remember correctly, you said that the winner would have full control over the loser, yes?” “Yes…” Jay grumbled “Well then Jay…” Vallis said smugly “...First order of business… Take off that shirt of your and let me see those feathers in all their beauty” “Okay…” Jay grumbled again, grasping the bottom of his tank top and pulling it off over his head and tossing it onto the reclining chair “Good” Vallis cheered “Now then… how about we spice this up a little bit?” He smirked “And how do you suggest we do that?” Jay asked, now slightly curious “Simple” Vallis said, his smile now growing wider. He then motioned for Jay to sit as he began to lower his pants, they were then swiftly followed by his jacket, socks, shirt and underwear “im going to ride your beak until you can’t breath” “Okay then” Jay replied, now lying down on the couch “By ride you mean the front or the back?” “The back” Vallis said, swaying his hips as he approached Jay “Obviously, we have to start with the fun end” “Obviously” Replied Jay Vallis, now standing over Jay, sat down on the edge of the couch and lowered his face to Jay’s “But first, let's get a little action with the other end first” He whispered seductively into Jay’s ear canal. Vallis then raised his muzzle to meet Jay’s beak and pressed his face to Jay’s in a deep and passionate kiss. Vallis worked his coarse tongue around the inside of Jay’s beak, rubbing every inch by delicious inch until meeting his tongue. The two members gently massaged each other as his muzzle and Jay’s beak overlapped, each passing second Vallis could feel himself wandering deeper and deeper into Jay’s mouth as he grew more and more relaxed, the adrenalin of the game slowly wearing off. Vallis then repositioned himself to be laying on top of Jay as he pushed his head harder onto Jay. Jay embraced him, covering him with his wings and pulling him harder, closer to his chest Vallis could feel his erection rubbing on Jay’s soft and supple chest feathers. The feeling of the feathers gently rubbing against his cock was far better than anything he had felt on it, other than G.Ram’s carbon fiber exterior lining of course. Vallis then pulled out of the kiss and sat up on Jay’s lap, a small string of saliva landing on his bare chest. Vallis then flipped around on Jay’s chest and slowly brought himself to his knees “Hope you're ready Jay” Taunted Vallis. Jay could see Vallis’ sphincter pucker and clench just inches from his face, his balls hanging gently on Jay's breast as he felt Vallis shift his weight backwards. He spoke out one warning to Jay before fully committing “Here it comes” Jay took a deep breath as he was then plunged into darkness as he felt the tip of his beak penetrate into Vallis’ anus. He was grinding and rising and falling slightly on his beak. Vallis could feel the smooth tip of the beak gently part his insides as he bounced up and down on it. Jay was truthful about the polish and moisturiser, it really did make his beak feel wonderful. He could feel jJay now gently massaging his thighs as he continued to move, his talons gently caressing him with each motion he made. Vallis then worked himself a little deeper, having Jay’s beak now halfway inside of him, he felt it work itself deeper, almost effortlessly as he continued to press downwards. Jay now firmly grasped his thighs as his talons dug slightly into them. He felt the beak open slightly, parting his internals. He then let out a slight gasp as he felt something wriggling around in his ass. Jay sat there, gently massing the internal walls of Vallis’ sphincter with his tongue making gentle clockwise motions. Up and down, in and out, Jay’s tongue continued to work as Vallis felt himself growing more and more excited with each motion. And with one final push he pressed the rest of the beak inside of him, he was getting stretched thin as Jay now opened his mouth even further to allow for his tongue to reach deeper. Vallis couldn’t help but let a quiet moan of pleasure escape from him as Jay continued to massage his internals. Vallis now pressed his face to Jay’s underwear and nuzzled the space between his legs. Now pulling the underwear lower onto Jay’s legs, He pressed his snout straight on Jay’s slit as he breathed a deep and long breath, taking in the scent. It was not unclean nor clean, it was something almost new to him, it was a deep natural musk, but not that of one acquired by sweat or excrement, it was a clean yet strong odor, almost like the pheromones produced by his pitcher plants to attract their prey, sweet but natural and pure. It was a maddeningly intense smell, he could feel himself slipping as he started to bound rapidly on Jay’s Beak. Now licking the sheath he could taste the fine and smooth flavor the natural lubricant Jay’s body had produced, it was not dissimilar to the musk as he continued to lap at the slit until he felt a slight protrusion poke at his tongue. He pulled back slightly as he watched Jay’s member slowly and hypnotically rise from between the two flaps of skin. As it rose to its full glory Vallis stared, admiring its form. He had seen it many times before and would no doubt get to lay his eyes on it once more, but every single time he did, he could not help but be amazed by its girth, especially when compared to someone with such a slender frame as Jay. He licked at it slightly, he felt Jay pull back slightly from the stimulation, he continued to engulf himself, savoring each and every lick as it further brought Jay’s taste into his mouth. Vallis then raised his head up high and began to lower it on Jay’s penis. He slowly mimicked the motion of Jay’s tongue with his as he stimulated the member by running his tongue around the sides. Lowering his head until his mouth sat full, he began to gently rise and lower as he started to suck. He could feel Jay’s talons dig deeper into his sides, still not yet drawing blood but doing well to emphasise Jay’s absolute pleasure, he pressed onwards. He could feel it bang at the back of his throat as Jay began to thrust. Vallis kept himself from choking and continued to press on, up and down, up and down, up and down. The rhythm continued, on and on as Jay and Vallis continued to work at each other's openings. Vallis could feel Jay’s member begging to tense as he was clearly reaching climax, he could feel the grip tighten further as Jay’s pace quickened to an almost rapid speed. Vallis felt on final bold thrust before he felt the penis protrude past his tonsils and deeper into his throat, rapidly filling his mouth with semen. Vallis swallowed rapidly and was barely able to keep up as Jay continued to pump a seemingly endless amount into him, he could feel his stomach filling up as more and more went down his throat, eventually, he was rendered unable to keep up as the thick white slime began to protrude from his nose and mouth, flowing onto Jay’s pristine blue and white feathers. Vallis then rose his ass from Jay’s face, he could now hear Jay gasping for breath as the final shot exited his penis. Jay quickly released his grip from Vallis’ hips as a single puncture made itself known, dripping a single drop of blood onto Vallis’ fur. Vallis then quickly rose off of Jay’s member and took a breath of air himself, now whipping his muzzle and nose clean with the back of his paw. He then rose up off of Jay and stood before him, opposite the side of the coffee table. Jay laid there, still breathing heavy as he gently massaged his beak and licking the edges of it. “You still taste amazing” Jay squawked out “I could say the same for you” Vallis replied in between licks of the back of his paw “Good lord, am I glad I lost now” Jay squawked out again “Well, you're about to get even happier since we aren't even close to being done yet…” Vallis replied, gesturing to his still fully erect penis “...You got a lot of work to do” “It would seem so…” Jay said, now sitting upright on the couch with excitement “How do you wanna handle that?” “Well… I could think of a few things” Vallis said, with his signature grin coming to his face once more “I could think of a lot things” “Praytell” Jay replied back, staring intently at Vallis’ throbbing cock, admiring the barbs “Well… can you like… bounce on it maybe?” ⇐ (Epic Catchphrase Moment) “I sure can,” Jay replied with a quick and direct excitement, now rising from the couch and walking seductively towards Vallis, intentionally over exaggerating his hip sways “Good, then come over here and start sucking until I tell you to stop” He commanded, pointing at the ground in front of him. In truth Vallis himself had never really been on the dominant end of an encounter before, but thanks to his repeated endeavors with G.Ram he simply just said what he said but instead of receiving the command, he was the one ordering. “Yes Val” Jay said, lowering himself to his knees and beginning to gently massage Vallis’s testicles with his talons. Vallis could feel something taking over him, almost like years of repressed muscle memory attempting to take hold, he could feel himself acting on pure impulse. The very idea of having full control over Jay was exhilarating to him, it was so…. Arousing. He felt himself move his hands to the top of Jay’s head as gently yet firmly embraced him, forcing his beak onto his balls, pressing him ever deeper into his fur. “Ooh, where did this sudden energy come from?” asked Jay, pulling back from Vallis’ balls to speak Vallis, then quickly silenced him by pressing Jay back into between his thighs. He could feel Jay begin to engulf his balls into his beak as began to grind. Vallis pressed his thighs tight, placing generous pressure on either side of Jay’s head, causing him to let out a muffled squawk. Vallis’ felt the ever familiar tongue which belonged to Jay begin to work its way up and down the surface of his testicles, he could feel the fur beginning to smoothen as Jay worked his magic. Letting out a slight pur “You certainly know what you doing down there cutie”. Pulling back again, clearly impatient, “I sure do, but I have a sneaking suspicion that you want to use the other side?” “You’d be right” Vallis said, releasing his grip in Jay’s head “I guess we can get right to it then…” He said, slightly dejected but still more than happy to continue Jay then rose from his knees and made his way over to the breakfast bar, spreading his tail feathers and gently swinging his hips from side to side. Vallis stood silently, admiring Jay’s form from a distance “You gonna come over here or what?” Squawked Jay impatiently “Huh… Yeah” Vallis stuttered “Sorry, just admiring for a second” “Well, come take a closer look then” Jay snapped back With that, Vallis then made his way over to the bird sprawled over the breakfast bar and began to slowly lower himself to meet his muzzle with Jay's slit. Once again, gently extending his tongue and running it over the flaps and up the taint and directly into Jay’s asshole. Pushing it in quickly and deeply “Hey!” Jay chirped out “A little warning next time before you go in like that, your tongue is rough you know!” Vallis, now quickly pulling out and resting on the heels of his paws “Sorry… I…” He continued to stutter. His muzzle was then quickly clasped and brought back towards Jay’s rear “I didn’t say stop” Cooed Jay, leaning further back “M-kay” Vallis spoke out, muffled by the feathers. Vallis dug his tongue back inside of Jay and began to gently lap away at the inside of him. There was an overwhelming scent of sweetness to pair with the taste. Jay’s rear was almost sugary, ‘must be the nectar’ he thought to himself ‘wonder if that’ll happen to me?’. The flavor was thick and intoxicating, almost like honey, and the scent itself wasn’t too dissimilar to a bakery, albeit a very old bakery, run by a rather active bird, but nonetheless a bakery. “Make sure you get it nice and moist Val, I’d hate for you to tear something when you man up and put it in me” “Mhhm” he replied, still muffled, pushing deeper, feeling his tongue drag across the lower lining. He could feel Jay grinding on his face, rising and falling as he continued to lube him up. Now gently retracting and extending his tongue, brushing the Jay’s internals, he could hear him cooing in pleasure. He could feel Jay tense as he was clearly approaching climax. Quickly pulling back and rising to his feet he took a small step back. “Aww, what did you stop for?” Asked Jay through a clenched beak “For this” shot back Vallis, quickly gripping Jay’s hips and rapidly thrusting his member into Jay’s now sufficiently lubricated cloacae “OHH FUCK!” Jay squeaked out in pain and pleasure simultaneously, talons digging into the countertop and pulling a small bit of stone. He recoiled and braced himself on the counter “I can see you haven’t had any rear action for a while Jay” Vallis stated “Your hugging my dick like your hanging off a cliff” “Y-y-yeah…” Jay stuttered "Typically I-I-I do the FUCKING” he screamed out as Vallis quickly pulled out. Jay felt all of Vallis’ barbs drag on his insides as he pulled out, sending waves of sensation, both painful and invigorating. “Holy shit” “Oh c’mon, it cannot be that bad, I've taken your cock much more than you have mine and I haven't had that kind of reaction… well ever” Vallis taunted, rubbing his member up Jay’s tailfeathers “My dick dosen’t have fucking BARBS!” He yelled out once more as Vallis quickly shoved his penis inside him again “What was that?” He continued to tease “I couldn’t hear you over your screams” “You fucker” Jay squawked out “Your doing that on PURPOSE!” he screamed again as Vallis then once again, pulled out with a speed and dedication he had never felt before “I have not Idea what you could possible mean” Vallis said, pushing his penis back inside Jay Vallis then finally committed to the act and began to pump rhythmically, he could feel his barbs pulling and flatting with each stroke as he rode Jay. He leaned over Jay, pressing him into the bar, he could hear his beak click against the surface as he pressed, a quiet coo of pleasure radiated from him as he continued to thrust, but not a hard, aggressive pounding. No. It was a gentle yet firm motion, a movement with purpose, Jay felt as if he was having love made to his anus, almost as if instead of simply being used as a hole, he was being sensually appreciated as each thrust resemble a fine art, like a painter brushing the canvas in preparation for a masterclass of the arts. The pressure being applied was conversely, calm yet authoritative as he was pushed just hard enough to remind him of his place, but not hard enough to cause anything but pure pleasure. Vallis’ warm, light body, nearly hugged him as he felt his fur press into his feathers as he was nearly engulfed in the fluff. He could feel Vallis’ tail wrapped around his left leg, rising and falling with each thrust, and he could feel his hot, labored breath beading down on the nape of his neck. He then felt the tongue lap over him as his feather stood on end in anticipation for what knew was to follow. And just as he had expected, he felt the pace quicken slightly as the broad, almost massage-like strokes shifted into more deep, more close rapid thrusts as he felt a sharp pain in his neck, a heavy pressure. Jay nearly went limp from the stimulation as he felt the Vallis’ teeth push into his subdermal layer as they penetrated deep into him. He could feel the barbs rub and tug at his deepest crevices. He could feel Vallis’ member tense and pulse as the pressure on his neck steadily grew. The grasp on his hips became almost vice-like as he felt a sensation wash over him. His penis twitched and bounced as he could feel himself orgasm all over the side of the breakfast bar. Similarly, he could feel a throb inside of him as he felt his insides quickly fill with Vallis’ seed. He was nearly bulging as he felt himself begin to leak. “Pent up huh?” Jay sighed in pleasure “Possibly” Replied Vallis, now shifting his weight and begging to slowly pull out “Well, you certainly stuffed me” Jay giggled to himself “Yeah stuffed” Vallis replied, chuckling to himself slightly, his barbs drug gently as he finally removed his member fully from Jay “We should probably clean this up before my roommates get back” Jay said, leaning over the breakfast bar and admiring the splatter on its side” “Yeah… we probably should” Answered Vallis, now rubbing his penis slightly in an attempt to make it go down faster “Pass me my shirt off the recliner would you?” Jay said, pointing back towards the living room and its accompanying recliner “Why not use a towel?” Inquired Vallis “It would be a shame to stain you tank top” “Ehh, don’t worry about it, I can just bleach it or something” “Fair enough” Vallis finished, swiftly making his way into the living room, grasping the shirt, he then brought it up to his nose. It smelled just as sweetly as Jay did, the scent was just as equally intoxicating as Jay was, he continued to breathe deep, pressing it harder to his snout. The scent permeated into him, tickling his brain, just taunting him, telling him, no, commanding him to breathe deeper, to press harder, almost as if the scent was taking over him. It was like heaven, he could feel himself relaxing further and just sinking into the depth of his mind, the smell pulling him into the murky abyss “Vallis” a tap on his shoulder shook him from his trance “My shirt?” “Oh… Y-y-yeah” He stammered, quickly handing the top to Jay. He watched intently as he made his way back to the counter, bent over, revealing his ass, dripping with Vallis’ semen. Jay wiped the side clean and then, without a word, made his way down the hallway, and presumably into his room as Vallis heard a door swing open. His attention then quickly shifted back to the remaining clothes. The shorts, the underwear. He quickly shook the temptation. Now making his way into the main hallway and peering down, he could see Jay searching through a dresser. He watched as Jay retrieved a thick pair of blue denim jeans, a vest, and band T-Shirt for the main event of the night. The Mechanical Animals. A rather underground scene with a cult following. God, Vallis’ was already in heaven, but the night was set to get even better once they got to the concert. Jay then made his way out of his room, brushing past Vallis, making his way into the bathroom that stood next to him. The bathroom had all the necessities, a single, standing shower with a rack of various shampoos and conditioners, body washes and bar soaps. A single wide bowl toilet accompanied by a small sink. It wasn’t anything special in the slightest, it was rustic yet homey, almost relaxing in a weird way “Would you care to join me? You could borrow some of my clothes, you're still large right?” He questioned, as he sat the spare clothes down on the basin of the sink, then proceeding to the shower and quickly drawing the hot water Vallis stood, unable to say yes, nearly too stunned to speak ‘IT JUST GETS BETTER!’ he shrieked to himself internally “I’ll take your vacant stare as a yes” Jay said seductively, making his way over to Vallis and grabbing him by his chest fluff, ushering him to the shower. The water was lukewarm but gaining temperature at a steady pace, it quickly dampened his fur as he recoiled slightly. Jay quickly followed him inside, pushing him back and away from the main flow. Steam began to fill the room as Jay reached for one of bars of soap from the rack. No grasping a lavender colored bar, he approached Vallis, pressing him up against the back wall of the shower “Lets start with you” He quipped, booping Vallis on the nose as he began to lower the hand clasping the soap. Vallis’ felt the soap brush of his testicles as Jay rhythmically rubbed the inside of his thighs and the front of his asshole. Jay nearly restrained him as he continued to hold him to the wall with one hand and work the bar of soap over his lower orifices with the other. He dared not to fight it, though who would want to? He had somehow managed to land himself in what could best be described as heaven on earth. “Now, let's get that rear side… shall we?”Jay cooed, releasing Vallis’ chest and quickly flipping him around with his free hand. He was then pressed up against the wall as he felt Jay massage his back, rubbing soap all over his backside. He felt Jay lower himself downwards as Jay began to work on his thighs. He then heard a single command “Lets see those paws now” With no choice but to oblige, he felt himself raising his left paw. Jay quickly got to work as he felt his talons work around each toe as he gently yet sternly cleaned in between every crevice. He scrubbed his pads soft, he cleaned the dirt out from inside his claw sheaths, and he scrubbed the fur clear of any stains and residuals they may have once had. Vallis had never received such a deep cleaning in his life. “Good boy” Jay praised “We should do this more often, you're a very dirty pup” Rising up from the ground now and flipping Vallis back around. Their eyes met as Jay closed the small gap between them, forcing his body against Vallis’ “We should, I would love th-” Before he could finish Jay pressed his beak onto his muzzle as he began to encase him in a deep embrace and a passionate french kiss. Their tongues met in the space in between as the two tightened the embrace, pressing further into each other's passion. Jay then pulled back and met Vallis’ gaze once again “Can I ask something of you Val?” “Anything” He breathed out “Could you help me out and clean my tail feathers off?” “Absolutely” He replied, taking the bar of soap from Jay’s grasp. Now trading places with Jay, he felt the warm water rush over his backside, rinsing him off. Jay, now spread against the wall, presenting his rear, invited Vallis to get to work. Vallis, now having his arm make its way to Jay’s plumes, swiftly got to work…
