Rating the Chain (+ravio) on how nice they would be to bite
Sky: very good bite, 9/10 also no repercussions because he just assumes you're dealing with something and kind of.... lets you. You'd feel a bit guilty because he's a very nice guy but he doesn't mind.
Wild: due to the rolling around in horse poopy all day and getting dirty, wild does not taste very good. Also he most definitely bites back, and due to him not knowing his own strength he'll bite harder than you bit him. 0/10
Wind: this is a brat child with prime brother energy, 10/10, would bite again, he deserves it. Like wild though, he also bites back
Time: do you really want to try this? i wont. lemme know if you do tho
Twilight: 7/10 good bite, also has the funniest reaction. He looks completely bewildered and kind of tries to shake you off but mostly just stands there, staring, looking from you to everyone else like, "what do i do? what do i do?" He might bite back in wolf form though.
Four: 2/10 he's such a chill dude i would feel bad. He's probably a good yummy bite but bro goes from 0-100 real quick if you piss him off, he doesn't deserve to be monchd,
Legend: mmm yes very yummy, good taste, also funny reaction as long as you start running after. he doesn't like being bit but at least he wont bite back... probably. 8/10
Warriors: if you bite skin he good, what with him having some of the best hygiene, but if you bite armor its not very nice :( 6/10
Hyrule: bad bite but good friend, 5/10 he gets very excited about it and then you both start biting each other. he doesn't taste very good, but its a bonding moment
Ravio: very overdramatic about the whole thing, but he would be a very good bite. He tastes like frosted animal crackers, those pink and white sprinkle ones? but beware this boy definitely has assault fees

We've poisoned the water and ruined the crops,
so what do we say when our kids turn to us
and ask us to justify all this mess
'cause they will reap what we sow?
"But once we could drink from the well, you and I, once we could drink from the well."

A family day
This story is set after the 4th season of the original game and a time jump to Nightbringer.
A selfindulgent fic because I'm a softie and the last lesson has left me thinking😗
Warning: long text and bad grammar
The younger one was feeling especially discouraged that day. He missed Mc, he knew that they could go back and forth between the two worlds now, but they had their obligations in their own world and couldn't just come and go. So, with a strange feeling and a longing for company, he went to look for his siblings.
The next step was look for Satan, he was not in his room, he was not in the library either… The blond must have been with one of his many acquaintances. A little tired, Belphie went to Levi's room, but he didn't get an answer either, and when he went to write to him he saw in devilgram that he was in line for some exclusive event. The youngest sighed, what was the possibility that all his brothers would be out at the same time?
First he looked for Beel in his room, but there was no one there and he remembered that his twin had intensive training that day. Then he looked for Mammon, but he wasn't there either, he checked his cell phone and saw in the group chat that both, Mammon and Asmo, had a modeling session together, so he wouldn't find the fifthborn in his room either.
As a last resort he went to look for the eldest, Lucifer. But he couldn't find him and remembered that he had told them he had a meeting with Diavolo at the end of class that day.
So, defeated and a little disillusioned, he went to the attic.
He had fallen asleep, yet a familiar laughter had awakened him.
Mc: *wiping away tears* My belly hurts from laughing.
Mammon: It's not funny!!! Asmo jumped on me!!
Asmo: It was a cockroach Mammon, a cockroach!!! Ugg I will never set a foot on that set again.
Belphie heard their voice again, but Mc was not there.
Beel : Oh You are awake, want some snaks?
Belphie: What?
When he looked around he saw himself wrapped in a blanket (he hadn't brought any blanket), but that wasn't all, he was cuddled up to his twin, Satan on his other side and Asmo, Mammon and Levi were also on the bed holding a tablet. It was from there that MC'c voice came from.
Mc: Belphie!! Good morning sleepyhead!! I've been calling you the whole afternoon.
Belphie: ?
Satan: Mc was worried because you weren't answerimg the phone, so they called all of us.
Levi: For a moment we were really concerned.
The youngest one looked at his bedside, even Lucifer was there sitting in an armchair next to the bed.
Belphie: Why would you care? It's normal that I don't answer because I fall asleep.
Mc smiled through the screen.
Mc: I don't know… I felt that something was not right.
Asmo: Awwww Mc is a worrywarty~
Lucifer: Yes, they are.
Mc: Oh come on, don't act like you didn't stop the meeting to come here.
Lucifer cleared his throat as his cheeks flared.
Mammon: *putting his arm around Belphie* Well since we're here, why don't we do something together? We all are!!! Even Mr. "Diavolo's wishes are my orders"!
Everyone except Lucifer laughed, and Belphie couldn't help but join in.
Levi: Why don't we watch a movie? So Mc can join in even if they are not here.
Satan: Thats a good idea.
Lucifer: Let's look for a movie then.
Beel: I'm going to get food.
Asmo: Wait Beel I'm coming with you!!
Belphie felt an extreme warmth, the sadness that had accompanied him all day was gone. His siblings had gone to prepare everything and he was left alone with Mc.
Mc: Well, it looks like it's going to be a family day out in the end.
Belphie: Yeah, I needed one of those… Even if you are missing..
Mc: *smiling* Next time, you'll have me there, I promise.
Suddenly he opened his eyes, it had been a dream… from before Mc disappeared. He felt tears welling up in his eyes and looked at his cell phone in frustration. It was then that he saw that he had a message from an unknown number.
"I miss you… you do not know how much. I need one of these"
Tumblr media
Belphie smiled, he needed one of those days too, and he wasn't going to stop until he got it.

Bugsnax in Ancient Stone Grumpus Society
In the early years of Tooth Island grumpus civilization, Bugsnax have always been a major part of their lives. They serve as their main source of food, their transformations can be used as tools and even fashion statements, forms of currencies (trading hard-to-get/rare/so-called "special" Snax for different goods and services is very common in Stone Grump society), and are generally just fascinating creatures to observe and learn about. While the overall view of Bugsnax varies from grumpus to grumpus, it’s very common for most to see them as higher beings deserving of praise and worship. Even though grumpuses had been living alongside the Snax for so long, there’s not much knowledge on what they actually are.
Grumpuses had survived on the islands centuries before the actual “beginning” of their civilizations. However, it's generally accepted that the first true inhabitants of the island were, in fact, the Bugsnax. No grumpus had traveled far enough to find any other Snak-inhabited lands, so it’s also assumed that Bugsnax and the Tooth Islands are inherently connected somehow. So that only encourages the grumpuses to respect the Bugsnax more.
A form of showing that respect is through the Bugsnak Ceremonies.
Tumblr media
Ceremonies and Sacrifices
Once a month, it's a common practice for Stone Grumpus territories to hold day-long events celebrating life and Bugsnax. The communities of Falls Valley holding their ceremonies on Broken Tooth. The communities of The Coast may also choose to go to Broken Tooth, but there’s also an underground cavern (built by Broken Tooth grumpuses) near the area that also is used for ceremonies. In The Peak communities it’s celebrated in one of their large cave systems. And lastly, The Desert’s ceremonies are held in the Vast Desert, near the Grand Pyramid. Though there’s been a “pause” to The Desert’s ceremonies for several years for an unexplainable reason…
Events that take place within the ceremonies vary from territory to territory, but they must end in the sacrifice of a randomly chosen grumpus. The sacrifices serve as a “Thank you” to the Bugsnax for allowing these grumpus communities to survive and thrive off of them for so many years. It’s believed that once a grumpus has been sacrificed, their bodies will break apart into Bugsnax. Their minds, thoughts, beliefs, wisdom, all finding new life in Bugsnax. The body of that grumpus may be gone, but they’ll find new life in the Bugsnax. And if any of the Snax gets caught and eaten by another grumpus, then they’ll gain that previous knowledge, allowing that sacrificed grump to still live on.
At least, that’s how it’s described in ancient legends. It’s said to help make chosen grumpuses feel less nervous, because being sacrificed isn’t their end, but a way to give them new life.
If a grumpus has passed away and their body; either whole and parts of them, is still accessible, it’s recommended to wait until the next Bugsnak Ceremony and bring their body to be sacrificed to the Bugsnax. If a grump is feeling brave enough, they could go to the ceremony place themselves to sacrifice the body outside of ceremony time. The area is very dangerous for a solo grump; as it’s a common place where someone may go missing. It's recommended to bring a friend or one of their leader’s subordinates to accompany them, and also to go during the daylight, as most grumpuses are active at that time in case they’re in need of help.
Tumblr media
Going missing
An unexplainable phenomenon that causes grumpuses to disappear. There’s no set conditions that’ll lead to the disappearance of a grumpus. Any grumpus of any status may seem fine one day, then gone the next.
In the earlier years of Stone Grumpus civilization, a grumpus who had gone missing was seen as a more urgent matter to look into. But there were no cases of a grumpus going missing ever being found. So in later years, it’s been accepted as an unpredictable, random, and tragic occurrence.
The best choice is to simply move on.

Wambus’s find
801 words
Tumblr media
The setting sun’s warm light lit up wambus’s small garden. He dusted off the dirt on his paws as he had just finished planting his last seedling. He stood up straight and stretched his back.
Soon his eyes laid on his neighbor, Gramble, who was tending to his “little ones”. When the other grumpus noticed the other, he scoffed at him and went back to putting a hat on a plump red strabby.
“Typical Gramble…” wambus said to himself. It was strange having your only sauce buyer hate you, And it was awkward having him ask for more sauce after an argument. Honestly it was getting tiring fighting all the time. Triffany just wanted them to make up already, maybe that was one of the reasons she wasn’t around as often.
But just because his yard work was done doesn’t mean he was done working for the day. He had left behind some equipment in garden grove when he moved back to town. It wasn’t anything too important but it would be nice to have them back.
— — —
Back at his old garden everything had been torn up. His scarecrow version of himself had been knocked down and sauce plants trampled. Tough upset, Wambus said nothing and just chewed his straw. It wasn’t even what he was here for anyways.
Behind his pen, hidden in the bushes was an old shovel. Sure it was just a shovel, but he would’ve hated to lose it. After he had it in his paw he dusted it off and turned back around. But when he did he saw the bush next to his garden move.
“Probably just a shishkabug, But they never come up here.” He mumbled to himself. “Doesn’t matter. I guess I could eat.” He put down the shovel and stood over the bush. He watched for any sign of the snak coming out. Without his net he’d have to be fast and strike at the slightest movement
When the snak poked its head out Wambus leaned over the bush and struck-
“Strabby! S-st-Strabby!”
“What in tarnation?” Wambus said as he held up the white strabby as It wiggled and squirmed in his paws “you ain’t no darn shishkabug!”
The two stared at each other “well I haven’t had a white strabby in a while .” He shrugged as he opened his mouth to swallow it whole.
“Oh wamby, when will you and Gramble make up?” Triffany’s words echoed in his head.
he stopped and looked at the strabby in front of him. “Hmf, I don’t think Gramble has a white strabby yet. I guess you could be a gift of sorts. Maybe put us on better terms.”
“Strabby…”
Wambus stuffed the strabby under his hat. “Hush.” He picked up his shovel and made his way back to snaxburg.
— — —
By the time he got back to town the sun had finished setting and everyone was asleep. He stood on the cliff that sat over Snaxburg. “Guess yer goin’ off s the donation box.” He said as he fixed his hat. “Would’ve liked to give it to em in person.”
He made his way down to his house when his eyes caught a familiar orange grumpus sneaking around Gramble’s barn. “Gramble should be asleep by now…” she whispered
“Is he now?” Wambus said gruffly
“OH DARLING!” Wiggle yelped as she turned to face him “oh it’s just you wambus…”
“Mhm… why you up this late?”
“Oh uhhh… just saying good night to my muse. So why are YOU up this late???”
He gestured to the shovel in his paw “Bringn’ some equipment back home,” then pulled the white strabby from his hat. “n’ leavin’ a donation.”
Wiggle gasped “a donation?! I thought you hated Gramble and his delectable snaks!”
Wambus shrugged “Tryin’ to hate him less n’ I think Triffany would like it.” He walked over to the donation box “Night.”
“WAIT!!” Wiggle called out
Wambus pulled the strabby away from the box. “There a problem?”
“Uh… yes. I think Gramble would like it if it was given to him in person! Hand me that delicious strabby and I’ll give it to him. I’ll be sure to tell him it was from you.” She said with a wide smile
“Alright,” he handed her the snak “as long as it gets to him, I don’t mind”
“Trust me Wambus, you're doing the right thing!” She said as she stared at quivering snak, she licked her lips as she did.
And with that wambus made his way back to his hut. He dropped the shovel off we’re he kept the rest of his supplies, took off his hat and vest then laid down in bed. He wrapped his arms around Triffany who was already fast asleep.
Hopefully tomorrow things will be nicer between him and Gramble… hopefully.

I got a few more ideas for possible troll fics and one scene.
1. The scene: ok so a scene I think would be funny is in a fic where JD comes back finds the village and meets a teen grey branch. In where poppy go les through the your not the heartthrob, fun one and so on when she calls John old branch is there obviously recognized him. In true little sibling fashion starts laughing his but off at JD. The snak pack are standing there with their mouths open shocked that's the first time they have seen him truly laugh. Maybe other trolls are there and are shocked as well. Jd see branch's eyes and the the left canine and knows its branch he is both happy and sad. Happy his baby is alive but sad because he's grey. After like 5 minutes branch snaps out of it when Jd goes to hug him but he pulls away just walking away.
2. Story1: kismet has been traveling the world since they where teens. Branch, ablaze, and boom are orphans while trickee and hype have families. Branch grows tired of the bullying he faces every day decide to just leave but he can't go without saying goodbye to the four that care for him. So at one thier hangouts he tells them. Right away boom and ablaze say they are going with him. They have never been adopted. Trickee and hype want to go as well but they have families. Hype mentions it to his mom and dad they decide that hype should go live his life and tell to go with just to come back a visit. Trickee just asked his moms they at first didn't want to let him go and is worried for the other boys they're just 15. But they know their son and that he will just go away so they give him the ok. They come back the village twice a year so trickee and hype can see their family it was on one of those trips the the first movie happened.
They just spend their time traveling and make friends all over the world. Branches colors ce back not as bright as they once were but are still there. They start the band when they are 17. They do pop, rock/punk, and alternative music with a saying that ablaze has been quoted saying 'we sing what ever we want'. Their band surpassed brozone in fame quickly. None of the brothers know that branch is in that band. Kismet is one of flyod's favorite bands but can never get good enough seat to see the faces of the band, he flabbergasted when he finds out who branch is. Floyd still get taken so jd Bruce and Clay have to fine branch. They freak out when they decide to move to pop village ( except Bruce) when branch tells them bye he and rest of kismet is going back traveling. Jealous brozone.
3. Story2: kind like the one above except kismet are bounty hunters/mercenaries. They made a guild that is like a large family. The guild is full of performers that double as bounty hunters, mercenaries, spy, and hakers. This shocks everyone. The bounty hunters are shocked that this big named guild is ran by the little brother of the trolls that hired to find.
4. Story3: ok so I have been reading alot of trolls react lately and i have not seen something like this yet. So everyone are watching the moves and short happens before the first movie. Branch is not happy about it and his brothers are trying to hug touch him such as arm around the shoulders and so on. Brozone and snake pack are just annoying branch. All the other troll are like dudes stop he doesn't like it. Kismet hears branch talk loudly to stop so they come over. Trickee and boom kind of jump on branches back and just start talking.hype grabs his hand just starts talking a mile a minute while playing with branches hand. Poppy try to tell then that he does not like to be touched and brozone is about to kick them off their brother but branch just starts talking and laughing with them. Everyone is shock trolls that the troll that was so angery and didn't want ot be touched is just letting these guys. Once again jealous brozone. After boom and trickee get down from his back ablaze puts his arm around branch and bumps their heads together. Brozone is so mad like why won't their baby brother allow them to do that. The rest of pop trolls are just shocked. Branch's colors brighten up a bit when he's with these guys. Therein two options for how branch responds to who these trolls are you can chose just covering same bases 1. These are my brothers in everything but blood and 2. These are my partner(s) (if you want you can chose one of the other kismet members or all)
That all I have for now I may post more. Once again I suck at writing so feel free to take these prompts and make something grand. I just ask if you do to give me a link to it or the title so I can read it
Until next time live long live large and rock on

Hii!! I really love your hc wich Genshin! And I love the fluff you add to the storys! So, if you dont mind, I am going to request a yandere abyss price Aether (my baby boy) with a reader who just got captured (people have mixed opinions on how abyss prince would act, and I really look forword to your hc!)
Thank you for reading my request, and if you dont feel like replying, its fine, I understand.Have a nice day and make sure to drink enough water! <3
Tumblr media
The Princess | Yandere Abyss Prince Aether |
| Sorry for the long wait! Should be fully active 5/9/23 | Enjoy! Thank you for your sweet words. :)) |
For this ask reader is a pyro sword user.
~ Suggestive Content, I'm nobody's parent but this will contain slight nsfw at the end. If there is a part 2. That will probably be NSFW. I have other works if you do not wish to read that, or request a separate fic.
~
You were a friend of Lumine's. Traveling with her after she had saved you from an encounter with Dvalin. You met her in mondstat but traveled with her everywhere! Helping her along the ways and doing what you could. You, Paimon, and Lumine, Were great friends. Traveling from Liyue to Inazuma, to Sumeru. You were almost a guardian to the prince.
Of course the prince of the abyss had seen you traveling with his sister. He became interested. Even after his journeys he had not noticed your compassion, your bravery, your loyalty. Of course he spent more time watching you with his sister. The way you protected her, Gathered things with her, and slept at night. He was obsessed.
Of course, he kept wanting more. So he had an abyss mage steal a few strands of your hair. He spent time sitting on his throne admiring it. The way it shined.
He always felt himself wanting more. to feel the warmth of your skin on his bitter heart. So, While traveling fontaine, He had 2 abyss herald's kidnap you.
You were in the streets of fontaine, Checking out the shops, the goods, the commissions. When the world suddenly became empty abyss. It was blue and empty, You cried out for Lumine and paimon but you were not in fontaine anymore..
The abyss herald's had shown up and though you were a vision holder you were out-numbered. The abyss herald of frost fall had frozen your body up to your shoulders. You tried to melt everything but you were worn out and exhausted. The cold making you drift off into a sleep.
When you had awoken it was to a post your arms around your back tied to a long pillar, You were sitting with your legs out You had felt hands on your cheeks, You looked up to see the prince of the abyss..Examining you? He was stroking your hair like you were some pet for his amusement. He held a serious expression but it seemed to be at ease.
"Who..Are you?" You finally broke the silence.
"The abyss prince. Your prince. You will learn, I know you will. Stay quiet. I need..this."
You felt your face redder as the man kept examining your face. You noticed you were in different clothes. White robes, Instead of your normal wear.
"You- You changed me-? Or did the abyss heral-"
"Yes I did. What of it?" He spoke bluntly.
You were dumbfounded. You were in a huge hall with purple tints. You struggled in your restraints and shouted at the prince telling him to release you and that he was crazy.
He harshly grabbed your jaw. "Watch your tongue, I shall cut it off if you cannot show some obedience to your king." That got you quiet. You noticed his features. They were so similar to Lumine, It was eerie.
"I can tell what're you are thinking. Yes I am related to them. But we are very different. Hold still."
His arms unhooked the cuffs but kept them on you behind your back. He lifted your body bridal style and walked to his throne, Sitting on it and sitting you in his lap still bridal style. You were stricken with fear. Where was your vision? Lumine must be worried. Would they come for you? What was he going to do with you..?
The hall was empty, Quiet. You were in your wave of thoughts until you felt his hand snake to your inner thigh.
"My princess.. I've watched you for so long.. I won't let you go. No matter where you go. I'll drag you here. You're my princess. Forever."
(Part 2? Request it! I need to know people want more lol. I haven't wrote NSFW yet but I hope it will be good if requested. Sorry for the days of silence on my part. Remember to shower and do some self care <3.)

Exterminator!Eddie on his first week of training with his uncle, comes to your house on his first sole job. And after thinking he got rid of all the snakes, you literally get bit. And he has to suck the venom out your bare skin, while you’re both panickedly freaking the fuck out, as he’s sucking at you. What a way to meet cute
today is multiverse monday! send me any au you can think of :)
this ask is so special to me bc i am an avid fan of billy the exterminator and eddie is.. that. so. <3 also, a little psa for you all: every bit of research that i did on this method states that you should not suck the venom out of a snake bite because, of course, then there will be venom in your mouth. and you do not want venom in your mouth. snake venom is also apparently very fast-acting, so it does irreparable damage no matter how fast you get to suckin'. so bottom line. don't suck snake venom out of a bite. but for the sake of the silly little meet cute fanfiction, we're just going to pretend that it would work and it wouldn't kill eddie too <3
--
Eddie's maybe not the best exterminator in the world. Hell, maybe he's not even a good one, seeing as your arm is bleeding, and the skin around it is already rashing up.
"Holy shit," He stomps the snake's head beneath his boot, not enough to kill it but enough to restrain it, "Oh- oh my god, holy shit, you're- okay! Okay, you're fine, it's gonna be fine."
"It hurts," You whimper, tears welling up at the corners of your eyes, "Like- like really bad, are these snakes poisonous?"
"Venomous," He mumbles, reflex from his extensive (read: one week long) training, "Uh, yeah. So..."
He's apparently an even worse problem solver than he is an exterminator. You finally let your tears flow, chest heaving with sobs, "Do something!"
"Yeah! Yeah, okay," He nods, reaching out to grab you by your good arm while keeping the toe of his boot firmly against the snake's head, "C'mere."
An extensive knowledge of adventure movies gives him the perfect solution: he'll suck the venom out.
"Uh," He doesn't quite know how to go about sucking on your arm, so he directs his wide-eyed, panicked gaze to your own one, riddled with despair, "I'm gonna suck it out, okay?"
"What?" You blubber, spit clogging between your teeth.
"I'm gonna suck it out," He repeats, smoothing his thumb over your wrist, "it's okay, honey. It'll be fine. You'll live."
Now that the snake is contained, albeit not well, he's starting to come down from the panic that inflated his lungs. He's not fantastic in a crisis, but his semi-soothing words seem to help minutely, if only to get you to offer your arm up to him.
"Okay," He hums, nervous, "So I'll just..."
His lips hit your arm and turn down into a grimace at the heated skin. You feel sick, and he purses his lips around your bloody bite.
Sucking snake venom out of an open wound is... less than pleasant. But he gets a flash through his mind, an image of himself, chunky boot restraining a killer snake, fantasty-style damsel in distress clutched in his arms as he sucks poison out of her body. The fearless fighter, rather than the shitty exterminator. He only feels slightly bad about transforming what's probably the scariest moment of your life into his fantasy sequence.
He's sure, though, that the scene doesn't look as badass to Wayne, who, after hearing no response from knocking at your front door, stepped inside to check on his nephew. He stops dead in the doorway, finding his boy... sucking on your arm? And a fat tear rolls down your cheek as Eddie rips his mouth away from your skin.
He spits, urgent and messy, right into your carpet. There's a list of questionable things Eddie has done while on duty today, and it's only growing longer with time. His glob of spit comes out tinged green, and he shudders thinking about residue left against the tissue of his cheeks. He needs water, now.
"Wayne," He catches sight of the man in the doorway, frozen still, "Snake bite. Call 911."
He leans down to grab the snake beneath his boot, fingers pinching its neck just like he's been taught. He keeps the thrashing creature at his side as he marches over to duck his head under your kitchen faucet, rinsing and spitting ten times just to get the taste of blood out of his mouth.
Your sniffling brings Wayne out of his shell-shocked trance, and he looks away from where Eddie is gulping down water, "Uh, the phone?"
"There," You raise a shaky arm, your non-bloody one, to point at a wall mounted phone, "Am I gonna be okay?"
"You'll live." Wayne grunts, squeezing your shoulder as he lumbers past you to the phone, "Don't stress, kiddo."
Neither of the Munson men are especially proficient in comforting words, you suppose. But Eddie stalks back across the house to stand beside you, brandishing the snake in his hand that you shy away from.
"If you want," Eddie pants, water dribbling down his cheek, "I'll fling him for you. Like, into the fuckin' sun. I'm so sorry, Y/N, I really thought they were gone."
"it's okay," You sniffle rubbing at your tear-stained cheek with your clean hand, "I did, too."
"Gimme that," Wayne scoffs, yanking the snake away from Eddie's iron grip and wrestling him into a bucket, lid punctured with breathing holes, "Don't torment her."
"I'm not! I said I'd fling it," Eddie huffs, free hands now reaching for your injured arm, "Are you okay? Like, besides the snake bite."
"Yeah," You breathe, lungs empty and full at the same time, "Uh it- it hurts. But I'll be okay?"
"For sure," Eddie nods, his curls flying beneath his bandana, "They've got antidotes. You'll probably be home again before dinner. And I'll do another sweep," He looks down, sheepish, "Just in case."
"Thank you," You whimper, the soft, warm touch of his fingers on your arm comforting, "Could you ride in the ambulance with me?"
His eyes go wide, "You want me to?"
"Please," You urge, "I'm scared. And you know about this stuff; about snake bites. I need someone who knows what they're saying to tell me I'm not gonna die."
"Yeah," Eddie nods, breathless, "Yeah, I'll ride with you. Oh! And, uh, you're not gonna die."
"Thanks," You break into a smile, although it's muddled by the tears in your eyes and the quake in your voice, "Y'know, you're a shit exterminator, but you seem like a nice guy."
Wayne doesn't give Eddie a chance to laugh at your quip, piping in with a snort, "Yeah, I don't think he'll be taking over the family business anytime soon."
