Punk is not dead

Who: Xanxus, Sabo and YOU
What: Sabo insulted punk, so now they're haivng a little music battle
When: 3 Feb
Where: Club VorTeQ
Warnings: Xanxus warnings apply, more as added.


It's time. The infamous little punk club is filled to the brim with curious fans. Ever since that little twit-fit, the club has been really playing up the upcoming battle between Sabo and Xanxus. There are posters and special drinks, themed for each musician.

The stage is set up for the two, with everything they need. The bar is active and the club is hopping. While this isn't a legitimate contest like the Song Contest, there's something more on the line here. The pride of punk music.

[The song, much like it had at the concert, goes off perfectly. No matter the size of the audience, it seems like Xanxus never puts anything less than his best. That's good, they suppose. For that reason, they leave any filming to Fantasma, and let themself check out the security detail.]

[It's as they're eyeing someone by the exit that something suddenly changes. A heat in their stomach, a stirring of something that skirts the edge of pleasure, and their thoughts and eyes both wander to the bulge of Xanxus' muscle...]

[Ew.]

[Holy shit, ew.]

[Being a skilled illusionist requires more than a fine handling of Mist flames. In a battle of illusions, you need a heightened awareness of your surroundings at all time and the mental ability to disbelieve every bit of it. The slightest thing can give away if you've walked into a trap...]

[It also helps that they've never once been attracted to their boss. Mammon knows themself well enough to know that a nice singing voice wouldn't change that.]

[Mammon looks back to him. It's a trial and a half to ignore the invasive thoughts about the shape of his mouth, or the way his throat is bared in a way they'd like to bite, or how maybe they can help him get out of those god-awful clothes... But Varia Quality means being able to ignore your own stupid genitals acting up. He's looking straight at them, Mammon realizes. That's where all his focus is.]

[Fantasma squeezes their arm. She can feel it, too. Now that's unusual. Fantasma shouldn't be able to feel arousal. She's not even a real frog.]

[Now this is interesting...]

[Silently, they raise their hand up and curl their finger in a "c'mere" gesture. Time to see if the effect stays while he's on stage, while he's looking at them... Or if somehow they've been drugged.]

[They don't think it's that last one, despite the venue.]
avidita: (sassybird) (I'm spring cleaning all of the)

[personal profile] avidita 2016-02-09 05:09 am (UTC)(link)
[A burst of foreign emotion pressing against them, and then... He stops playing, stops singing. The feeling doesn't entirely leave them, but Mammon thinks it might be a bit weaker. There are just aftershocks, of a sort.]

[There's not much time to reflect on such a curious event so soon. Just as his way, Xanxus is already off the stage and heading straight for what he wants. Mammon never really thought it would be them at any point in time, although at least they know most of it is just the illusion. They let him take their hand, amused at the class he shows when he wants to, and Fantasma does as well. She must be quite happy to be treated like such a lady.]


If you're already talking like that, I can think of any number of places better to continue this conversation at. I think my sister agrees.

[Fantasma rolls her head onto Mammon's shoulder, still as clingy as when they're not covered up by illusions, and reaches over to trace her currently human fingers up along their boss' arm.]
avidita: (sassybird) (This is why you are going on a date.)

[personal profile] avidita 2016-02-14 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
You've gotten better at knowing how to treat a woman.

[Fantasma finally speaks, using Mammon's Mist flames for a manufactured voice. Even with the opportunity, however, she's still rather quiet, preferring to speak with actions.]

[Considering this means, much like Mammon, that the particular action for tonight is sidling up against their boss' sides in a way that involves maybe a bit of boob pressing... Well. Lying with actions. That seems to be more appropriate.]

[It's nice to see Xanxus in his more appropriate element, threatening people with all the careless rage of someone gesturing far too close with a very sharp knife. Comforting, in its own twisted way. When the room is finally cleared out, Mammon kicks the door shut behind them.]

[This will do, they suppose.]


We really are surprised you recognize us. [It'd been a hope that the illusion would jog something, but they hadn't been really counting on it.]
avidita: (sassybird) (He told me I'm a small core of pure)

[personal profile] avidita 2016-02-20 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[Left alone, Mammon quirks up an eyebrow curiously as Fantasma returns immediately to their side.]

You definitely remember more than we thought. Not that we're complaining. [Mammon crosses their arms.] Half rings. Is that what you're thinking about?

[If they're deducing things correctly, anyway...]
avidita: (pixiv 1834278) (Life without a bra equals bliss.)

[personal profile] avidita 2016-02-27 07:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[So... the vague basics. Mammon takes note of that. Maybe it's a good thing that, for now, he doesn't remember his grudge against Sawada. It would probably be allowed on a surface level if he tried to attack the boy, if Pride and Virgo's rivalry is as bad as it is, but... He probably shouldn't let those memories of his be known to others. Especially not the higher ups.]

So it seems you don't remember the Vongola. The Family those rings belong to.
avidita: (sassybird) (He didn't want to go down on me)

[personal profile] avidita 2016-02-27 08:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[A locked door won't stop Mammon from escaping if they really want to or feel the need, but this isn't like the last run in. They don't feel nearly as much of a threat. And in the secrecy of the room... It's easy to speak.]

[The faintest of smirks.]


The most powerful and influential mafia family in the world, in fact.

[Just not this one.]

It doesn't seem like you have a fling on your mind anymore.
avidita: (pixiv 136026) (This was the fourth year in a row)

[personal profile] avidita 2016-02-27 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
The things we could tell you would take a lot longer than faking a quick fling in the back room of some seedy club.

[Mutely, Fantasma gives a nod. There's just not enough time. Still, this could work out to their advantage...]

Of course, if you were to invite a pair of lovely women out for dates, I'm sure we could eventually get everything out of the way...
avidita: (pixiv 4925030) (I've done dumber things than this)

[personal profile] avidita 2016-02-27 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[What's there to be sorry about? That desire to get everything he can is one of the traits Mammon appreciates in their boss. It's something they can identify with. The "twins" exchange a satisfied smile with one another before Mammon glances back to Xanxus.]

Then it seems we have a deal. Work or pleasure first for this round, then?
avidita: (sassybird) (I was going to be upset with you)

[personal profile] avidita 2016-02-27 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh. Welp. That's just happened. Fantasma takes it like a champ, adjusting after the moment of surprise to wrap her arms around Xanxus' neck. It's a good thing that most of her really is composed of Mist flames at the moment, so he's not... completely kissing a frog. There we go, no need for them to be worried.]

[Mammon leaves the pair to it, going through the room to see if anyone has left their wallet or other valuables around.]


Don't worry, we know how to share. So, what do you want to know first? The rings, or more about the Vongola?

[Meanwhile, Fantasma does her share of things, bless her little froggy heart, by kissing along the boss' jaw to keep him preoccupied on that front. He never needs to know it's her, after all.]
avidita: (sassybird) (I think I'm worth just a little more)

[Poor froggy indeed. At least, since this isn't as heavy an illusion as they're capable of making, illusion sickness won't kick in too harshly or suddenly... Small blessings.]

[Still, best to get this over with as Fantasma acts out her role perfectly for him, squirming and pressing close.]


The Vongola rings, meant for the successor of the Vongola family and those chosen as the guardians. The sky, surrounded by six others. A guardian of Rain, Mist, Sun, Storm, Lightning, and Cloud. Your inner circle.

They're more powerful than mere jewelry, in more ways than one.
avidita: (sassybird) (Well we all woke up in drag)

[personal profile] avidita 2016-02-28 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, they've just finished clearing out some poor fucker's wallet- that's what you get for leaving important things behind- so Mammon has no problem draping themself in the available space on the couch. Idly, they watch as Fantasma tries her very best to leave some marks along his neck.]

[Clever girl. It'll add some weight to everything if there's proof something R-rated happened instead of information exchange.]


For protection. You should know how much people want what's at the top... So they're divided for protection, brought out to be united only when the heir is ready.

However... a heir has to be agreed on by both the current don and his outside adviser. If one has a decision different from the other, then things become more complicated than usual. It's settled by having the possessors of each half of a ring go against one another.

For example, your guardian of rain against the opposing side's own guardian.

[Fantasma is having a hell of a time, when it doesn't seem like the boss is in danger of setting something on fire. She nuzzles into the spot between neck and shoulder, while Mammon finally contributes by reaching over to rake their fingers through Xanxus' hair. Whatever helps and keeps him calm.]

[They should have broken the mind control off of Squalo first for tips on this shit, dammit.]


Tradition is tradition, no matter how imbecilic it is unfortunately.

[...And, in hindsight, probably for situations such as when you put in a replacement for the don to get you nominated as the next in line in ways that are maybe just a little bit immoral, but listen.]

The one who has the most rings in their possession wins. Would you doubt the guardians you chose for yourself?
