"Why didn't you call me?
"I didn't want to worry you..."
"What worries me is that you think I wouldn't drop everything in a heartbeat to help you, sweetie." Sylus' warm palm caressed your cheek before gripping your face between his fingers. With his gentle yet stern hold on your face, he carefully inspected every inch of your skin. The most damage he managed to find consisted of the cut that embedded itself in your brow with the swelling of your soon to be black eye to compliment it. You flinch and he takes careful note of how much pressure he should apply when taking care of your wounds.
It was nothing bad. A low-level wanderer had caught you off guard during your routine stroll around the area surrounding the man's safehouse in the N109 zone. You knew you should have told Sylus where you were going, but you simply assumed Mephisto would keep his watchful eye on you as he usually does. Besides, you had taken that path more than a hundred times (that was an exaggeration) and there was never a wanderer in sight, other than today of course.
"It's really nothing, Sy." The nickname flows of your tongue with a small sigh. It always ignited something within him, keeping Sylus on the edge of his seat. Your voice was the purest melody, blessing his ears like any angel would. His steady hands pulled your face close, slightly chapped lips brushing against yours before he rested cheek against yours. Although he seemed big and bad, Sylus was utterly wrapped around your fingers. He shook his head, and you swore his frown deepened just the slightest bit.
"It's not nothing... You are injured." He spoke sternly, "And you didn't think to come to me first." Your eyes widened and face fell into a pitiful frown. You trusted Sylus, but the thought of being a burden lingered in the back of your mind. Instead, you simply nodded and swallowed back your words as those crimson eyes stared deep into your eyes. You would never live down this feeling, the guilt that would bare its claws deep into your back. But for now, you shook the feeling away and let the older man tend to your stinging wounds, relishing in the warmth of his palms and the depth of his gruff voice.
MC Twin AU - SYLUS'S Darling
"Pretty Dragon, do you have a name?"
". . . Does it matter?"
"Well, since I'm officially a damsel in distress, I should at least know what my cager's name is no? It's only fair!"
The young woman gives the dragon a dopey smile, raising her legs up so she could place her chin on it as she watched him. The dragon's tail idly swayed behind him, until a somewhat familiar word left his lips. "Stayrus."
"Stayrus...." She murmured, allowing the familiar words to fill her mind for the first time in years. She hadn't heard that name since █████. "Stayrus....I like it." A soft sigh leaves her lips and she stretches her legs out. "It's a bit hard to pronounce though. Can I call you a nickname?"
The dragon rises, and his unseen wings stir up gusts around him. "Call me whatever you want. But don't expect me to respond."
A grin grew on her lips. "In that case, Sylus, can I play with the silver tiara I spotted back there?"
"If that's what you wish."
The next time you woke up, you found yourself on a bed.
A very, very, comfortable bed.
You blink up at the ceiling, confusion clouding your mind. What happened? You remember being kidnapped, you remember finding out that it was Luke and Kieran who had kidnapped you, you met Sylus.
. . . . Wait.
You met Sylus.
Meaning. . . . . . .you were currently at Onychinus's base.
You sit up in a panic, wide eyes glancing around the room. Black walls, dark bedsheets, a soft light shining down on you, was that a gun on your bedside???
Yep. This was definitely Sylus's room.
Holy shit, how did this happen?
You hum and place your hand underneath your chin in thought. Ok, so, what even happened before all this? You were on your way home, you wanted to get a little midnight snack, someone grabbed your arm in a flash, and boom you were kidnapped.
What in the cliche gods was this!?
You groan and fall back on the bed. Why you? Did Sylus kidnapping you mean you had an Aether Core in your heart? That didn't make any sense though, you didn't have a heart condition. . . . .last time you checked at least.
Wait. Didn't he say something before you passed out again?
"Hello, darling. I'm glad to see you again."
A giggle starts to bubble out of your lips, and a dopey smile forms on your face. He called you darling! He called you darling!!!
. . . Why? He said you had met before, when? You would have remembered meeting a stunning man like him before.
So . . . . what in the world was going on?
"Hello, darling."
"Holy FUCK-" you yelp, snapping your eyes open to sit up straight again, turning your head to stare at the white haired man who was leaning against the door. Ok, so you had a few options. Option 1, act scared and hope he leaves. Option 2, act like MC.
. . . . Option 2 was a bad idea, so never mind.
Option 3! . . . . Flirt with him.
Yes yes, option 3 also wasn't a good idea, but honestly, maybe it was because you knew so much about Sylus, that the scare factor has worn off the moment you realized where you were. Also, he couldn't even kill you because you were MC's twin! Yay sibling perks!
So you make a smirk grow on your face and give Sylus a wink. "Hello, handsome kidnapper~"
This will be an interesting interaction.

MC Twin AU - SYLUS'S Darling
You couldn't believe it, but you had been kidnapped.
You weren't even scared. Okay, that was a lie. You were terrified, but you were also really annoyed.
And flattered.
Well, being kidnapped means you must mean a lot to someone, right? So much that your kidnapper would think to make that person panic, they would kidnap you. How sweet!
But still so annoying. Why you?! What could your kidnapper possibly gain from kidnapping you?
You weren't rich, nor did you have a rich friend or partner. Information? Sure, you knew this world was a video game, but that didn't mean you knew everything.
You pause your thoughts as your kidnapper removes the blindfold they had placed around your eyes. You blink, then deadpan. "You have got to be kidding me."
You couldn't believe it. Of all the people to have kidnapped you, it had to be the twins!?
Meaning, it had to be the boss of Onychinus!??
You stare at the twins in masks before you, then let out a long sigh. Now that you knew who had kidnapped you, you just couldn't find it within yourself to be scared at all. "Quick question." You begin, shifting in your chair and cocking your head to the side. "Did you mean to kidnap me, or did you mean to kidnap MC?"
The twins look at each other. " . . . . Are you not MC?" one of them, who you assume is Luke, asked, and a loud groan leaves you. "God. Damm it!"
Sometimes, you really hated the fact that you and the MC were identical twins, because sometimes you ended up in shitty situations like these!
Unbelievable! Truly unbelievable!
"Hey, are you not MC?"
"But she looks just likes her . . . . does that mean MC has a twin or something?"
"Why wouldn't the Boss Man tell us then?"
"Idiot, what if MC didn't tell Boss Man that she had a twin? So how would he know?"
"But why wouldn't she tell him about her twin?"
"Why would she tell him about her twin?"
"But why wouldn't she?"
"But why would she?"
What were you witnessing? Did they act like this in game? What the fuck was going on?
You couldn't help but watch with morbid fascination as the twins continued to argue back and forth with each other. Did all twins do this? Did you and MC do this? You probably did, but is this what it was like to experience it?
The three of you freeze as the door opens, and you watch a very familiar, very attractive man walk in. Deep red eyes, beautiful white hair, it was Sylus in the flesh, alright.
Ok [Name], breathe in, and breathe out. Sure, the man who made you actually focus on the game is before you. Sure, the man whose myth you sobbed over is breathing the same air as you. And sure, the man you wasted hours upon hours grinding to get all his cards is now walking towards you, but that didn't matter.
All that mattered was getting out of this place alive.
Because you weren't MC, who had half of his heart. You were [Name]. a simp who could probably die if you weren't careful. And quite frankly, even dying can be expensive.
Damm this shitty economy. You couldn't wait for Philos.
You shift in your chair as Sylus stops in front of you, his red gaze pinning you down. ". . . You're not MC," he murmurs, a smile forming on his lips.
You blink. "Holy shit you can tell."
"Wait, so MC actually has a twin?"
"Huh, so we aren't the only twins here anymore!"
"How cool is that?"
A dark chuckle leaves Sylus's lips, and he leans down to grasp your chin, bringing your face closer to his. "You look like her," he continues, his thumb rubbing your chin, "But there's a tiny little mole underneath your eye. Right . . . . there."
You could only stare up at Sylus with slightly wide eyes, trying to shove down the simping part of you. No! This was a serious moment! Down girl! Down! "What . . . . what are you - wait, who even are you!?"
He merely laughs. "Hello, darling. I'm glad to see you again."
You pause. What? What did he mean by that?
See you again?? Had the two of you met before?? The fuck??
