LORD OF THE WINGS
AN EPIC (AND SEXY) JOURNEY
【 Once upon a time, in a magical land far, far away...
The Lord of the Wings, a massive dragon with no equal, demanded a bride tribute from all of the kingdoms across the continent. Every month each province was required to send their most beautiful men and women to become the dragon's next bride(s). Ever greedy, the dragon was not satisfied with having one bride. Not with twelve brides, nor two hundred brides. The dragon always demanded more. The number of hot people around to bang dwindled. Things were looking grim.
Soon, a group of brave warriors gathered to travel the lands and slay this dragon. They enjoyed adventures of fucking their way through sirens, fucking their way though the faeries, and fucking their way through the mage school and beastmen tribes. They reached the dragon's crystal lair where the dragon, who took beautiful humanoid form, approached them.
The dragon promised that if any warrior could satisfy them sexually, they would return all of the brides to their homes. Each warrior took a turn trying to satisfy the dragon — but only with their efforts combined in one massive orgy was the dragon finally satisfied.
All of the brides were released and the warriors moved into the crystal lair to live a loving polyamorous relationship with the dragon. All was well. The end. 】

STAR WARBLERS
A THRILLING (AND SEXY) SPACE OPERA
【 Once upon a time, in a galaxy, far away...
The Palm Warblers and the Pine Warblers, two different legions of the massive Warbler fleet, began to battle. Whenever their ships would meet in space they would fight with the winner taking prisoners of war. After one such battle, a captured Captain of the Palm Warbler legion held in prison met a Lieutenant of the Pine Warbler tribe. After some rivalry, the two fell deeply in love.
They had a ton of kinky prison sex. However, the two were not satisfied with fucking between prison bars. They wanted to properly marry. But how could they with their two legions at war?
They each gathered friends and more sex was had between all. More matches between the Palms and the Pines happened, leading to even more kinky space sex. Bolstered by friendship and newfound fetishes, they gripped their laser guns and seized the science lab where some important keystone gemstone was being examined and researched by space scientists. This stone was very important for the future breeding of the Warbler race.
By holding the lab hostage, the ship's Commander put down their weapons and handed over the keys. The Palm Captain and the Pine Lieutenant held hands as they steered the ship off to find a new planet where they could live in peace together. The war between the two tribes ended because of good sex. All was well. The end. 】

Repentance? For what? Haven't you done many of these so-called sins yourself?
[ The lines are a blur between the role he's playing and himself, and right now Xue Yang isn't looking to separate them. The sneer on his face is harsh, his eyes sharp and focused.
But then in a motion that's more impulse than intention, one hand darts forward to try to circumvent the loose clothing of Xiao Xingchen's lower half to cup a solid feel of the shape between his legs. The other tries to grab the clothing covering his upper body and pull him down into a rough, heavy kiss. The movement doesn't entirely feel like his own but he still doesn't stop it. ]
no subject
It would be all too easy to give in... but if the incubus dominates him instead, would he turn him into one of his kind as well? He'd become the antithesis of the very thing he swore himself to. He remembers his devotion to the Lord, using it as his anchor in the midst of this temptation.
Something in him finds something strange with all these thoughts, but as he does with the darkening suite, he finds it harder to resist. He barely even notes the drone flying in closer to get a different angle.
Placing his arms around the incubus, he pushes his weight to the side, trying to situate the both of them so he's above the incubus on the floor. Whether it's himself or some sentiment from this other side of him, one hand holds the back of the incubus' head to keep it from knocking onto the stone floor.]
no subject
Without realizing it he's already aroused enough to be visibly hard beneath his scant clothing.
Xue Yang bends one leg and presses it between Xiao Xingchen's until it's high enough to make contact with the back of his hand. ]
Priest, do you really think this is enough to conquer me?
[ The words are already out of his mouth before he realizes they weren't what he meant to say; for one, he was certainly going to call Xiao Xingchen "daozhang". But what was he going to say instead? He can't really remember anymore. ]
no subject
I have studied your kind... your need for it is greater than your loyalty to your master.
[Not that their devotion is all too great to their master, he would think. It's not like the strength of his devotion.
He leans down to kiss again, messy and heated yet bearing down with his position over the incubus. Even if this isn't to the point of what he's supposed to do, he's been taught that going directly for their weaknesses only make them more resistant to this technique. They are the priests who are trained to deal with this sort of opponent. It's only risky if you forget what you set out to do.
His free hand reaches for the lower straps of the incubus' clothing, slipping his fingers underneath and pulling it upwards. As dirty of a trick as it might feel, the incubus seemed to react to this...]
no subject
You think you know my kind, huh? I think this need is more than you can handle.
[ His touch turns even more aggressive, almost as if he's trying to shove Xiao Xingchen clear off him without actually breaking the contact between them. He's not sure why but he feels an urge to be the one doing the fucking this time, a feeling that comes tinged with a hint of something that feels almost like fear. But that's ridiculous. Why would he be afraid of having Xiao Xingchen fuck him like he's done all those times before? ]
no subject
With a twist of his hand, he tries to snap the straps in two, allowing him more access to the incubus' lower half. It doesn't restrain him as well, but his position should still help keep the incubus pinned to the ground.
Just as long as he doesn't let himself waver.]
I don't want to hurt you, so please don't make this more difficult...
[His hand reaches into a compartment on his cassock, bringing out a small vial with clear liquid that seems to shimmer. If he needs to, he'll use whatever means he has to vanquish the demon in his body. He'll surely be forgiven.]
no subject
He was not expecting to react like that, and for half a moment, confusion flits across his features. ]
You won't hurt me.
[ It's not meant as reassurance--it never is, even though Xue Yang often says something like it at times when Xiao Xingchen seems uncertain or like he's wavering. It's not really meant as a boast either, though it's more that than the former, and certainly sounds like one under the circumstances.
He's pretty thoroughly stuck under Xiao Xingchen at this point, and his captive gaze falls to that vial. Is that supposed to be lube? It's no lube they've used before, and for some reason the shimmering of it has Xue Yang's gaze completely glued to it. ]
no subject
(Of course, it certainly isn't anything like that. It's only a prop that that was placed in his clothing by the staff - picked specifically because one of them thought it would look more magical on camera - and he somehow supplied a story justifying it.)
With the lube spread across his fingers, he still tries leveraging his weight over the incubus, leaning in to catch his lips in another kiss. His tongue licks deep inside, the kiss both oppressive and desperate to not allow one who's surely more experienced even the slightest advantage. His hand reaches lower, towards the cleft of the incubus' ass. It's difficult to reach from this angle, but he can't cede this advantage. Too easily the tables can turn.
He can only hope that this will distract the demon to relent with his touch as well...]
no subject
But then the first finger slips into his ass, and it's as if Xue Yang's mind blanks for a moment. He'd completely forgotten about the part of his character that "will only behave when he has a cock in him", so he has no idea why a single finger is making him go still and his jaw go slack for a second.
He blinks hard to try to clear his head, then kisses back with renewed vigor, though his motions have gotten noticeably sloppier. ]
no subject
Before he can think of taking the risk of removing the upper part of his cassock, however, he feels for himself the effect he’s having on the incubus.
He quickly slides the finger in deeper, searching for the most sensitive spot inside. Though he’s driven almost by the spirit of someone else in many ways, his memory of doing this many times before sets in, almost knowing where it is by instinct. The tip of his long, slender finger strokes it without any hesitation, pushing a second finger in alongside the first.
It’s difficult to truly focus when the incubus has worn him down so, and he can’t repress his moans any longer into their kiss. He could almost come right now… but as much as it would make it easier for him in the moment, he needs to hold back…]
no subject
He's pretty sure that even with the various weird effects that the hotel has bestowed on him, he's never been this pliant. He's been horny a number of times under various conditions, of course, but it's never been quite like this. He's never just lost his mind once someone stuck a finger in him.
But that's exactly what's happening. The more Xiao Xingchen touches inside of him, the harder it becomes to fight back, kiss back, think over the sensation. Like draining his energy, or his vigor, taking all the fight he had a second ago and sucking it dry. It has to be the effect of something, because this is a wholly unfamiliar experience. ]
Priest...
[ His tone is a moan, almost like a plea, and completely outside of his usual vocal control. ]
no subject
If he remembered that they were filming at all, he might have remembered he should say something, but it takes all of his willpower to even focus right now.
Pulling back up, he pauses, still panting for breath as he looks down at the incubus underneath him. He knows he shouldn’t, yet he’s struck by the sight. For a moment, he feels more like his true self instead of the priest, taken in by the fact he can see this at all.
Seeing the incubus, earlier so smug and dominating, now soft and pliant…
He gathers some of his wits and pushes himself back on his knees between the incubus’ legs, using his free hand to pull the incubus’ hips up onto his lap. With a last, harder press swipe across the prostate with both fingers, he pulls them back out, needing that hand to unbutton more of this black robe.]
no subject
He doesn't even notice when a drone flies precisely in to get its body under one of his feet and lifts it up so the camera can get a nice shot of his hole giving a visible shudder, as if begging to be filled again as quickly as possible. By the time his wits are back about him, it's already flown away again. ]
You think you're gonna win like this, priest? [ The words come out a little odd, a product of the role more than himself. But it's nothing an audience who has never before met this man, who doesn't have Xue Yang's face, would notice as strange. ] Even if you fuck me like this, it won't be enough to beat me. [ An unsteady, breathless laugh slips out. ]
no subject
The words of the incubus demanding an answer, for his mission--]
If it means nothing but keeping you here... so you will not trouble others, that is a victory to me.
[He pants for breath as he speaks, but his words are full of his resolve. Keeping the incubus under control while avoiding his influence is enough.
More than pushing his hips forward, he pulls the incubus to him and onto his cock. The tight ring of muscle is almost too much to bear, the priest not thinking about the blindfold's power making the heat so much more intense. He tries moving slow, still trying to consider the demon... but the moment he feels the demon's hole twitch around him, his hips snap forward as his hands pull the incubus forward.]
no subject
With the initial rush passed he relaxes as if boneless. His unfocused gaze slowly wanders back towards Xiao Xingchen's face and he stares up at him as if transfixed, like he's the only thing in the whole world. His whole body is hot and his face is darkened with flush, his breathing slow but wavering slightly. Finally there's more movement: his eyelids flutter slightly before closing, almost giving the impression that he's going to sleep, and he even lets out a pleased murmur.
Xue Yang feels a sense of contentment like he's never experienced before, and it's almost as if he could fall asleep. He could stay like this forever: relaxed half on the floor, half on Xiao Xingchen's lap, ass filled with a solid warmth, mind pleasantly blank. What more could he ever want? ]
no subject
He doesn’t dare to start moving his hips, however. If he pulls away too hard, he risks losing the effect that he has on the incubus right now, and he already lost control a moment ago. He shouldn’t think himself victorious yet. It won’t be too comfortable to stay like this, however. The rites to truly exorcise an incubus are not a brief matter.
So he slides the hand without lubricant around the demon’s upper back, while the other grabs onto his ass from underneath his leg. Having a solid grip on the incubus, he lifts him up at the same time he starts to stand up, still keeping their hips together. He takes steady steps towards one of the seats with the velvet cushions, holding the incubus close to himself all the way.]
no subject
Priest... you'll make it good, right? It's always good when it's like this. You just have to fuck me really well. Give it everything you have so I don't need anyone else.
[ The words are a blend of the role, slipped into his consciousness under whatever spell is part of the costume, and his own sentiments. For an incubus, even if he takes it in the ass from a priest, he can easily last for more than one round and eventually reverse their positions once he tires out the human priest. For Xue Yang, he hasn't yet had sex with Xiao Xingchen that he hasn't enjoyed. And though he's never admitted it, possibly even to himself, he would probably be perfectly content to spend his time only with Xiao Xingchen. It's why he settled down with him in the first place, after all. ]
no subject
Yes... better than anyone else you'll ever have.
[For a brief moment, he considers whether to keep the incubus in his lap and have him ride him that way, or to lie him down on the seat. The former would be easier on the seat... but he can't give up his place on top of the incubus. Looking down at him awakened a different kind of feeling that should disturb him. As much as he felt enamored, the thought of it wells up in him with a greater intensity when paired with the feeling of holding him down.
It's not him, of course. It's surely only this role. Even if he feels another more familiar voice calling through the facade, reaching through to him. But it's easier to lose himself in the role. He can focus on a mission given to him by the church to break an incubus, and not desperation at a faint chance to have the man feel something at least close to what he feels for the man...
Though the pews are narrow, they both fit on it fine enough, though Xiao Xingchen needs to half-stand with one leg in the aisle. As if for some sort of counterbalance, he lifts the demon's opposite leg over his shoulder. It feels like it might expect too much from the demon's flexibility, except he's certain that they can handle this, especially with the demon turned partly over to his side. More than that, this position makes the incubus feel even tighter around his cock. That's enough for him to make this work.
This being the front pew, the drone certainly gets a clear view of everything as Xiao Xingchen grips the demon's leg, pushing it even further back as he starts to move his hips. As much as he wants to start out slower, he knows that the incubus... the man doesn't want it so careful and romantic. He wants to be completely subdued, dominated, fucked completely without mercy. So--]
But first you... must atone...
[He won't be careful, only exerting enough control over himself to draw this out and to reach the demon's sensitive spot. His grip on the demon's legs - one by the ankle and the other on his thigh - become bruising as he drives himself down deeper, caring about nothing else but what he wants right now, if only because that's what the man would want.]
no subject
[ The curse slips from Xue Yang's lips before his mind has even processed what's happening. Xiao Xingchen's thrusts land true, relentlessly and mercilessly pounding Xue Yang's prostate as he drives his hips against him. It's rough and exactly how he wants it, and even being bent nearly to his body's limit only makes it feel even better.
His toes curl and one hand digs fingernails into the wood of the pew beneath him. It takes several seconds before he finally manages to gasp and inhale again, only to continue moaning immediately.
If before coming here someone had told him that Xiao Xingchen would be an amazing fuck, Xue Yang would have laughed in their face. Yet here he is, his mind completely shut down with how good it feels. Consistently Xiao Xingchen manages to give him exactly what he wants, whether it's food or fucking or anything else. And he does it willingly, every time. Every demand he gives into just makes him and Xue Yang more alike. That's the point, right? For the two of them to understand each other. For Xiao Xingchen to be the sort of person who sees the world the same way Xue Yang sees it. ]
no subject
Sharp hissed breaths, head hanging low-- he looks like he's given up control over himself to control the one beneath him.
The hand from the thigh moves up to the demon's cock, quick to pump it with a tight grip in time with his thrusts. The memory of when he was all around the man comes back to him, able to feel all of him at once. But it wasn't truly having him.]
Demon... repent for your sins...
[Could he still have his heart?]
no subject
As if on cue (probably on cue) he waits just long enough for the line to be delivered and the camera to swing around. Then Xue Yang's body seizes and he comes with a loud cry, arching and angling his head to give the best view to the camera at the moment of orgasm. None of it is intentional, but when he's so deep into it he has no mind to notice the influence of the costume on his actions.
He's only tight for a few seconds before his body relaxes again as if begging--or perhaps tempting--Xiao Xingchen to continue. He can easily go beyond the end of a single orgasm, and luckily enough, that ability suits his role in this scene perfectly. What sort of an incubus would he be if coming once was enough to exhaust him? ]
no subject
But just when he thinks he's the one about to reach his orgasm, he doesn't feel it arrive, letting him fuck the incubus at the height of his fervor long past the demon's orgasm. Even if his body is aching, the priest's faith and willpower somehow keeps him from coming too soon. He needs to completely exhaust and overwhelm this incubus until it has no resistance left. Self-denial and self-control-- that's what he's tempered over years for this purpose.
Still, he fucks the incubus even more desperately than before, as if he can wring another orgasm out of him even faster if he keeps up this punishing pace. Surely these creatures aren't held back by a refractory period afterwards. If he can make him come enough times, only then will he come as well...]
no subject
His moans pick up as Xiao Xingchen fucks him through his refractory period, and don't abate when his cock starts to stir a second time. He doesn't know how Xiao Xingchen is still going but he's certainly not complaining.
It's only when he's fully hard again that he hooks his less restrained leg around Xiao Xingchen as if urging him on. It's hard to tell whether he wants to feel it himself or if he actually wants to encourage Xiao Xingchen to come, but at this point the difference doesn't really matter. He certainly doesn't have enough mental faculties left to actually consider it himself. ]
