Intrusive thoughts on Romeo for all of the few Romeo lovers out there.

💛 Human 💛

- ✨charming✨

He’s unbelievably charming, we’ve all seen the King of Puppets intro. So I believe human Romeo is the definition of Prince Charming. He’s treating you to flowers and kisses on the hand. If not he’s greeting you with a playful bow.

- Quality Time

Romeo is huge on quality time, whether or not you guys are actually talking. He’s fine with laying against you as you read a book while playing with his hair. Please brush his hair! He loves the feeling of your hands in his hair.

- Late Night Dates

I’d imagine Romeo to be slightly rebellious and adventurous. He’s the type to climb up to your window and take you out for some fun. Take you to hidden spots around Krat or to a beautiful view. He’d gently hold your hand and pull you close to him. Humming a tune while slow dancing with you in the park. Dimly lit by the street lights, he’d stare at you as if you’re the brightest star.

👑 Puppet 👑

- Extremely Possessive

At that point, Romeo had just lost Carlo and had seen the horrors of the Petrification Disease and the Alchemists. He’s not letting you out of his sight for a second. Keeping you hidden away somewhere in the Estella Opera House. Commanding other puppets to guard your room and to protect you at all costs. But that’s only if he’s not around to guard you himself.

- Dancing

Sometimes he’d let you out of your room to dance around the Estella Opera House Stage. The few times he’d come out of his suit and somewhat let his guard down. How it would make his springs tick when he sees you come out from backstage wearing a lavish outfit. The music would start up and he’d greet you with a bow before whisking you away to dance.

- Hair

Please keep playing with his hair. He still loves it, it reminds him of when he was human. He’ll pull you towards a sofa as he sits on the floor. Handing you a brush while tilting his head at you expectantly. His springs and gears are creaking and ticking happily as you brush it.

- Reassurance

Romeo needs reassurance. After he chooses to have Geppetto turn him into a puppet he’s suddenly very self-conscious. He was scared to see your reaction at first. So to see you still love him for him makes his mechanical heart soar. He would cry if he could. Please reassure Romeo of your love for him 🥺

💛 Human 💛

- Teasing

Romeo loves teasing you until you’re nothing but putty in his arms. Whispering into you just to see you flustered. He definitely uses his height advantage (unless you’re taller) against you. Occasionally pinning you to the wall as he tilts your head up for a kiss. Pulling one of your legs up to hook around him. But then suddenly pulling away just before anything more happened. He’s waiting for you to reach your breaking point where you grab him and pull him off to make sure he finishes what he started.

- Soft

He’s so soft and romantic when he’s not teasing you. Romeo doesn’t want to fuck, he wants to make love. Worshiping every inch of your skin and making sure you feel the depth of his love and devotion to you. He’s praising you every time you cum, calling you precious, and telling you how well you take him.

- Giver

Romeo is definitely a giver. He loves pleasing you to your every whim. He’s down bad for you and will do anything for you. Want him to eat you out? He’s savoring you like the finest of ambrosia. Want him to use your mouth? He won’t stop showering you in praise as he thrusts into your throat. Thanking you for letting him use your mouth. Anything, and I mean anything, as long as you’re a satisfied puddle after he’s done.

- Switch

Romeo definitely wouldn’t mind letting you take the lead if you wanted. He won’t complain if you want to put on a show for him. But sometimes after his Stalker duties he just needs to bury himself into your warm body and de-stress.

-Kissing

Romeo loves kissing while you two have sex. It’s a must. He loves feeling your lips or skin against his lips. Kissing just makes everything feel so much more intimate and real to him. Rile him up by returning those kisses, whether it’s his lips or his chest. Just kiss him back and all of a sudden he’s gripping you as he thrusts faster while he whimpers out how much he loves you.

- Aftercare

ROMEO IS NOT ONLY THE KING OF PUPPETS BUT THE KING OF AFTERCARE. He’s cleaning you up like the most delicate flower while his warm calloused hands rub you so soothingly. Making sure you hydrate while he brushes out any tangles in your hair. Pressing a kiss to your forehead and then to your lips. Whispering sweet nothings into your hair before giving you his shirt to wear to sleep. He’s wrapping his arms around you as he holds you close before falling asleep.

👑 Puppet 👑

- Size Difference

We all saw how tall he was in the game. If he wasn’t taller than you before, he probably is now. He’s pulling you underneath him as he thrusts into you. Calling you his little star or his heart as he absolutely ruins you.

- Dominant/overstimulation

I’d imagine after becoming the King of Puppets he’s a lot more dominant. Easily holding you down and making you take all of him (with consent). Whispering into your ear “How’s it like to have a King claiming you, my little star?”. Before sliding his entire length into you. Growling out in a staticky voice “Mine, mine, mine…”, he’s once again possessive after everything that’s happened. He’s going to make you cum multiple times despite you crying and whimpering you can’t take more. He knows you can because you don’t want to disappoint your King, do you?

- Hear me out… 👹 the suit 👹……….

Sometimes he’s really impatient and pent up. So he’ll grab you with one of the many large hands before opening up the hatch and tossing you inside with him. The hatch closes and now you’re stuck inside with a very pent-up Romeo. No one is going to disturb you guys for a while… He’ll keep you there until he’s absolutely satisfied.

-Aftercare

Usually that consists of you helping him clean since now he has nooks and crannies from being a puppet. But Romeo really appreciates it and helps him actually wind down. He just loves watching you take care of him and feeling your skin against him. He pulls your hand up to his cheek as he nuzzles it. Thanking you for not leaving him after seeing him become a puppet. Reassure his worried mind and shower him in kisses.

A Promise (Stalker!Carlo x G/N!Reader x Stalker!Romeo) Pt. 1

Pt. 2

This will be an au where Romeo and Carlo never died and become stalkers!

Summary: A year after their close friend's death, Romeo and Carlo were making their way to Venigni works to help him when they stumble upon someone who they thought they lost forever.

◇◇◇

Y/N sighed in annoyance as they waited for Carlo and Romeo.

The two had told them that they planned a surprise for them and that to meet them at the amphitheater in Rosa Isabelle street.

Fortunately the amphitheater was empty so it would only be them.

"What is taking them so long, they should have been here now." They muttered as they looked around.

They tried to stay quiet and listen, hoping to hear footsteps or their voices to know if they were coming.

But it was completely silent, except for the few crickets chirping.

"I'm about to leave if they don't arrive in the next few minutes."

But as they said that, the two boys that they were waiting for finally arrived.

"Sorry we made you wait." Carlo apologized as he sat down on Y/N's right while Romeo sat on their left.

"What took you two so long, I was about to leave." They scowled the two lightly.

"Sorry, we had to get something before we came, now close your eyes!" Romeo said as he gave them a smile.

"Okay..." Y/N muttered as they closed their eyes.

They then felt something go around their neck.

'A necklace?' They thought.

"There, you can open your eyes."

When Y/N opened their eyes, they looked down and saw a silver oval shaped locket with a blue gem on the front, around their neck.

"Romeo, Carlo... where did you get this?" They said as they gently lifted it into their hand and opened it.

They felt tears form as they saw a picture of them along with the two boys smiling up at them.

"Me and Romeo saved up our allowances to get it for you. We hope you like it." Carlo said as he and Romeo looked at them affectionately.

"I love it! Thank you!" They exclaimed as they threw their arms around Carlo in a hug and placing a quick peck to his cheek before doing the same to Romeo.

The two smiled as Y/N looked down at the locket.

They wanted this moment to last forever, but unfortunately that happiness will soon wilt away, along with their friend.

◇◇◇

As he wiped the oil off his sword, Carlo sighed as he and Romeo finally got rid of the remaining puppets in the area.

"Finally, now we can rest for a bit." He said as he sat down against one of the wooden pillars of the abandoned apartment.

It has been about a year since Y/N had tragically passed because of the petrification disease, and a couple months since the puppet frenzy started.

The two, who had graduated from the Monad Charity House a while back, were now stalkers like they wanted, and were now helping people make it to the hotel for safety.

"Yeah, but we shouldn't take too long. We have to get to Venigni works to find Mr. Venigni, like your father, asked." Romeo said as he sat next to his partner.

"Yeah, I know." He grumbled at the mention of Gepetto.

Even after graduation, he still resented his father for neglecting him, the only reasons he agreed to help his dad with finding Venigni is because the inventor was Y/N's father, and he actually treated him like a son.

"Hey, don't be like that. I know Y/N would want us to help their father. And I bet they are watching over us right now."

Carlo sighed as Romeo mentioned Y/N.

He took Y/N's passing hard, even shutting himself out from everyone, but Romeo didn't let it stop him, as he stayed by his side.

"Yeah, your right. Alright, we'll leave in twenty minutes."

Romeo smiled and nudged Carlo's arm.

"That's the spirit, now I remember packing some apples for us to eat." He muttered as he grabbed his bag and dug around in it.

"Ah, here." He said as he pulled out a red apple and handed it over to the white fox masked man next to him.

But as Carlo grabbed it, that's when they heard footsteps running from outside and stopping at the door.

They didn't sound like they were from a puppet, and they didn't hear growling like a carcass, so they must belong to a human.

"Another stalker perhaps?" Carlo questioned, thinking that maybe some other stalkers are still alive besides them and Claudia and Lucio.

He couldn't think of anyone else it could have been.

"I don't know, but we should be cautious." Romeo said as he grabbed his puppet ripper scythe and slowly approached the door.

Carlo followed behind, his sword, proof of humanity in hand.

Gripping the handle in his hand, Romeo opened the door to see someone standing a bit away from him, their back was towards him so the two men couldn't see who the person was.

They were shaking pretty badly.

In the distance, they heard screeching from some puppets, which must be what this person was running from.

And the screeching was starting to get closer and closer.

Without saying anything, Romeo dropped his weapon pulled them inside, causing them to yelp while Carlo closed the door and locked it.

"Let me go!" The person said as they tried to pry themselves from Romeo's grasp, causing the two men to freeze.

That voice...

Gently turning the person towards him so they were facing both him and Carlo, Romeo reached up and pulled the person's hood down.

"Y/N?"

◇◇◇

I hope you guys like part 1, I will work on part 2 as soon as I can!

Some Romeo headcanons:

as a treat… because I am really busy lately. Sry! ;_;

Romeo is not only your lover, but also one of your best friends. Which means plenty of couple and best friend moments. He will make you feel loved… and make you laugh.

He is protective of you, but he also knows that you need to do things on your own, to go your own way. As I like to say… "He helps you when you fall down, walks a few steps with you until he knows you can walk on your own again."

No matter if it is past-chaos or pre-chaos Romeo, if you want him by your side he will be there. Past-Chaos is such a sweetheart, he is truly happy to have such a lovely person in his life. Pre-Chaos feels the same, it's just that most of the time he's not sure if you really should be here with him. He wants you to live a life unaffected by the puppet he has become.

Talking to him is difficult as he is a puppet and you do not understand him yet. But don't worry, he will always find a way to talk to you, especially when it comes to expressing how much he loves you.

Romeo x GN!Reader

Note: just a small fluff piece I came up with quickly because this man needs some love. Also smallish spoilers?? Maybe?

_________________________________________

You looked at him, silence filled the air as he was tinkering with a body part of his, you stared at his face seeing the concentrated look on it- well...as much as a puppet could make anyway.

"I want to kiss you..." You mumbled suddenly making the puppet in front of you freeze up, blue and green tinted eyes looking up at you. "Kiss me? I...I don't think it'll be very comfortable..." He said back softly, looking up at you.

You had come to flourish some feelings towards the blonde puppet in front of you, you couldn't help it, he was such a kind and hard working individual and it was tainted by the false narrative that he was the one that caused the disaster. You knew it wasn't and it fuelled hatred in you to those that spread those nasty things around. If it wasn't for him, even more hell would've unleashed on Krat!

"I don't care...I...would it be okay to..." Your voice trailed off as you became shy, "...I don't want to make you uncomfortable" you said, worrying you might've stepped too far. I mean, you don't even know if he had any feelings towards you.

The blonde puppet looked down for a second before looking back up and nodded, "you can..." You gulped before nodding and sitting closer to him, you looked at his face seeing all the cracks and chipped off paint, he looked...tired. Despite not being able to move his face you could just see how tired he actually was and it made you sad. There were times where he would just sit with his head in your lap as you stroked his hair and hummed a soft tune- you weren't good at it, far from it actually but he would always compliment you and it was probably the only time you saw him happy and content.

You took a deep breath before gently placing your hands onto his face, cupping it within your palms. You leaned in, closing your eyes as you pressed your soft warm lips against his cold harden ones. It honestly wasn't bad and you deepened it a little as much as you could with non moveable lips, you felt the coldness of his fingers gently touch your neck as he tilted his head a little, closing his own eyes. You pulled away before leaning into his chest, "..." It was quiet as you then felt him stroke your hair, wrapping his free arm around your waist and pulled you close. "I hope it wasn't too bad..." he spoke softly once again, you shook your head "no...it was perfect, Romeo..." You nuzzled closer, you got used to his cold body and grown to find comfort in the hard material, although he insisted on heating his body up just for you on colder nights which was sweet.

"Your lips are warm and soft... If only I could give you that warm feeling too..." He said, his voice faltering a little. You looked up at him, "you already do...you warm up my heart", you stared at him, "puppet or not...I love you, Romeo."

"......I love you too, (Y/N). I love you so much..." He pulled you into an embrace, burying his face into your neck as it was your turn to stroke his hair. You would always be beside him no matter what, you made a vow to that and would keep it till the day you die.

[ash-arts-but-sinful]

Whoa sudden thought, Pinocchio being jealous because of Carlo.

No wait think about it, Carlo is confident, outgoing, but above all he’s human. Human like you. Why would you bother staying with a puppet if you could have somebody who is not only human, but looks almost exactly like Pinocchio himself.

Carlo would be well aware of the jealousy too and he’d take full advantage of it to get under his counterparts metaphorical skin. Despite the strong emotions Pinocchio may feel and how far he’s come with his adventures through Krat he still isn’t fully human, but OH can he feel those emotions and he didn’t know how strong jealousy could be.

So taking every chance he could, Carlo would throw flirtations your way. Every pick up line, any chance to touch you, every wink, every smirk, but only when Pinocchio was within sight. The annoyance on his face would be clear instantly, his eye would twitch. He’d scrunch up his face, the furrow of his brow and scrunch of nose clear along with the slightest hint of his lip curling. The worst tell would be the twitch in his legion arm would return full force.

Of course, Carlo would tell Romeo all about it, delighting in how HILARIOUS he found it and, of course again, Romeo would advise him against it. He’s seen first hand what Pinocchio is capable of and maybe pushing his buttons would get him sent through a wall at worst, getting him punched in the face at best. He’d reassure his concerned… ‘friend’, that whenever you’d reject his advances Pinocchio would calm down almost instantly.

Romeo was right though because one day he pushes it a bit too far, hand on the wall beside your head, his other hand on your chin as he gazes down at you, smirk plastered on his face. Your annoyance would be clear, but that doesn’t stop a metal hand firmly landing on Carlo’s shoulder before it’s jerking him around.

At least Pinocchio was nice enough not to use his legion arm to give him a bloody nose.

Romeo got to say ‘I told you so’ (yet again) that day.

Pinocchio

Still doesn't really understand human emotion, but he is trying!

At the beginning, he'd be really stiff, likely not even moving to hold you back, opting to just wait until you were done

That is until he learned more from other people's feelings throughout his journey... and after receiving an earful from Gemini

Soon, he'll start to hold you back, albiet very gently as to not accidentally hurt you

And even sooner, he'll start to crave your touch, finally understanding how good it feels to receive it, as he feels a strange warmth everytime you give it

He'd also give some of his token of affection at times, though the main ones he does know are gentle caresses due to petting Spring, so you'll just be pet like a cat the majority of the time

P is a very observant puppet, especially to your reactions, so he likes to take the cold of his metal arm and touch it to the warmth of your skin just for fun

It truly amuses him everytime to see you squeal at the feeling

-

Romeo

Honestly? He thinks it's quite cute

Not only that, but he'd welcome this little habit of yours with open arms! Quite literally, haha

I'm sure he had become acquainted with such a thing with Carlo, most likely because he needed to comfort his best friend rather than for showing his affection

Romeo would go straight to thinking the worst had happened and would ask what was wrong, that is until you tell him the purpose of your actions

After becoming the king of puppets, he'd learn to enjoy this much more, wanting to find his own comfort in someone, just as he had done so for Carlo

As the king of puppets, he's gets really gentle with you, which is really obvious compared to how he treated you back when he was alive

Whereas before, you would get tight, warm, even playful embraces from him— never wanting to let you go from his grasp; you now get cold, loose arms to wrap around you, almost as if he's afraid to hurt you

When he gets more confident that you won't immediately die in his hold, he does share his affections with you even whilst in the big puppet form of his

Like holding you up in his hands like you're a small doll as he softly smiles behind the big puppet suit. No matter his form, you'll always be cute in his eyes

-

Alidoro

Incredibly adamant that he does not enjoy any physical affection of the sort. I mean, you could ruin his outfit or the treasures he has! Can't risk it!

However, it just turns out he's very touch starved

Kind of expected from his past, really. His attitude that he lets slip out at times doesn't help either

He doesn't want you teasing him about this, nor tell anyone else, so he tells you to keep your distance

But if you promise to keep your affections private, he'll allow it

Reluctantly

He's really not used to this, so it'll take some time to get used to, but even then, he still values his personal space at times

Very rarely will he reciprocate it

When he does, however, it accidentally comes out a bit rough and awkward. Like a tight side hug with a couple of pats on the shoulder before he lightly pushes you away

Will he ever get better at showing his affection? Yes... once he finally allows himself to learn from your affections, haha!

《Lies of P / Reader》

{When a traveler from another world becomes entangled with the world puppetry and lies..}

-

{"If I said your a beautiful girl.. Would it upset you?"}

I think these two will honestly go through a whole lot of ☆TRAMA☆ together.

P just trying to understand your words as you explain that Krat was not your home.

He just gives you such a sweet look as you sing the song, "Cheers" under your breath boredly.

Just P and a (Y/N) from another world gives so much for me to work with!

"P..?" You blink, eyeing your companion as he holds your hand. Having gone used to holding the porcelain hand as he looks ahead. His grip... It was VERY tight. "Uh-Ok ow.. OW Ow Ow-!?"

He forgets that you aren't like him...

He knows your more fragile than he is, yet he can't help but be... Comfortable in your presence. Your fun answers and determination ignited something within his "Heart".

It beats, it yearns for more.. More than to be human. Something that can be with you until-

P retracts his grip as you cradle your hand. Trying to shake it off as best you could, smiling at him with reassurance, even if it was a clear lie.

feel again.

warnings: unedited, spoilers for lies of p, self indulgent. thank you to @kkyos for letting me know the important plot details pertaining to the king of puppets 🔥

romeo - king of puppets - x fem.reader

{ my heart is numb | but with you, i feel again. }

the king of puppets was left severely damaged after his battle with geppetto's puppet...

the one who simply went by p;

the one who carries carlo's memories within his mechanical heart;

the one romeo tried so desperately to warn about-

yet it was all for naught.

the automaton with the chestnut hair and cold, blue eyes never listened nor believed a single word romeo had told him.

so the king of puppets thought if p wouldn't heed his warnings about geppetto's true intentions, then he might as well kill him himself.

but he wasn't expecting p to be so powerful, and it would be fair to say that romeo had severely underestimated him. p seemed to cut him down with ease. for a mere puppet, romeo had to admit how powerful p's conviction was when it came to their battle. the puppet romeo had been controlling, appearing every bit like the true king of puppets, suffered a great blow that caused an explosion.

it left romeo greatly damaged beyond compare, with half of his face melted in the process. so instead of relying on his facade as the king of puppets, he knew he had to fight p in his true form, doing all he could to defeat geppetto's creation.

yet each time p's blade met with romeo's metallic body, he knew that he didn't stand a chance. if romeo wished to survive, he would have to willingly fall and allow geppetto's wishes to come true.

"maybe this is what freedom feels like. thanks, carlo."

he thinks back to his dear friend and the tragedy of his death, and although romeo understood geppetto's desire see him again, he didn't think it was right nor fair to take away p's life in exchange.

yet each time romeo tried to convey these feelings, p displayed no signs of understanding a single word romeo had said, piercing through his shoulder with a thick blade as romeo slumped forward, landing with his face against the velvet floors of the theater. he waits and hears the faint sounds of a conversation going on... of him congratulating p on his defeat.

romeo could feel the thick oil seep through the openings of his armor, and an overwhelming sensation coursing through his form. every part of his body had been slashed by p's weapon, leaving a permanent mark that he was uncertain he could ever recover from.

so, he lays in waiting, waiting for their presence to disappear, waiting for the scent of oil and rust to dampen down just so he can move once more.

romeo was uncertain how much time had passed, but when he could hear the sounds of rain pounding against the cobblestone streets, he shuts his eyes and basks in the refreshing scent for the briefest of moments.

move, you'll die here if they come back.

with his fists clenched, he slowly stands back to his full height, his stature and gait unsteady due to how much damage he had taken in the fight. he allows his dirty blond hair to fall across his face, covering his damaged eye, now shining a bright red instead of its usual onyx grey.

he takes steady movements, coming out of the opera house as the rain washes over him. strange, gasping noises were heard coming from his parted lips, his movements a slow, crawling pace. the downpour was getting stronger, creating puddles against the streets of krat.

as the rain dampens his locks of hair, romeo was forced to look at the damage he had sustained. his hair was torn in as the left side of his face was completely melted off, revealing a bright red iris settled in the middle of a wide expanse of black. his hands tremble, ready to touch against the part of his face that made him a monster when a sudden gasp was heard.

his ears could detect the sound, facing the sound as his eyes met with a young woman's-

met with your gaze.

the umbrella that was held in your hand drops at the mere sight of him, and even when his mind seemed to short circuit at the fact that someone had seen him in such a vulnerable state, he couldn't deny that you were beautiful.

from the way your hair framed at your face, to the brightness of your eyes and the curve of your lips...despite how utterly long it had been since he was a human, he remembers what it feels like to cherish the beauty in things that he admired-

and you were by far the most beautiful sight he had ever seen in a long time.

he watches you, as if drawn to you, like your presence was pulling him towards you. his hands reach out to you, and he was shocked to find that you didn't flinch away from him. his fingertips were just centimeters away from gracing your cheeks when a flash of lightning cuts through him, illuminating his features once more as he saw his reflection within the puddles.

with a low, anguished cry, romeo was forced to back away from you, turning away as he allowed his legs to carry him away. just what was he thinking? he was a monster, and you were so beautiful- reminding him of all the fairies and princesses he had read about in those fairytales.

you would be disgusted with him, regardless of how much he was drawn to you.

but when he feels a sudden pull against his wrist, stopping him from going any further, romeo turns back to see you clinging to him. "wait, please, don't go...!"

it was strange, but he could feel your hands against his cold, metallic body, transferring your warmth into him as yet another overwhelming emotion fills him.

instead of feeling pain surrounding his body, he felt something pierce into his chest, the place where his own mechanical heart lay as it ached at the sight of your proximity, filling him with a desire to reach out his hand to brush back at your hair. he allows his fingertips to grace your features for a brief second before his vision turns completely black, hearing your voice echoing as he succumbs to his injuries.

{ ... }

the moment he awakens, he was aware of the fire burning brightly from in front of him.

now in a panicked state, romeo sits up, ready to attack had it not been for the fact that you were currently settled before the blazing fire. when his eyes adjust to his surroundings, he was fully aware of how he was safely tucked into a small bed with a comforting fire remaining ablaze within the fireplace.

"ah, it's nice to see that you're awake. you had me worried there." romeo remains silent, simply watching you while admiring the sound your voice. it was hard to explain, but he felt a sense of tranquility each time you spoke to him.

you tell him your name as you were now pacing the room, with your eyes straying to him every so often, "although you are so much taller than me, i was determined to carry you back with me to my home. i managed to clean you, getting rid of all that rust and oil to the best of my abilities before laying you in my bed."

when you finished speaking, you appeared sheepish then, scratching the back of your head while giving him a tiny smile. "i was really afraid that you wouldn't open your eyes, but i'm so happy that you did."

your sudden kindness makes romeo feel a tightness in his chest, making him look away from you. "what made you wish to help a monster like me?"

the cold edge heard in his voice was enough to make you stop in your tracks, ceasing your pacing around the room when romeo continues, "i'm part of the automatons that went rogue. if i so desired, i could kill you irregardless of your humanity."

"but you were hurt, and i could not leave you, even if you can kill me."

you admit to him without hesitation, making romeo face you once more. when he held your gaze, he saw no fear in your eyes, watching you as you stepped closer to him. you never once looked away from him, settling yourself on the bed with him.

no words were spoken, and you find yourself leaning closer to him. romeo flinches away from you, seeing your hands reaching out to him. his actions make you halt for a moment, but you end up pushing through anyways and allow the palm of your hand to caress at his cheek.

with a gentleness romeo had never felt before, he feels the way your hands frame at his face. despite how much romeo held a deep sense of self loathing for what had become of him and his face, he could not bring himself to hurt you by pushing you away. for some odd reason, he just knew that you meant no harm, and the thought of hurting you made his chest display this strange ache again.

"don't be afraid of me...and don't pull away." your voice was as soft and sweet as a lullaby, tracing at each and every part of his features. from his cold, full lips to his pale skin and the few freckles that decorate it. when he feels your fingertips touch at the melted portion of his face, he found himself leaning in to your touch.

"tell me, what is your name?"

as if caught under your spell, romeo closes his eyes, basking in your closeness as he relinquishes his name to you.

"romeo."

he figured that would be the farthest extent of your touches, yet when your face suddenly leans forward and he could feel the sensation of your lips against his ruined features, romeo felt his chest explode yet again with an unknown, overwhelming sensation-

he had read about this action in books before, what you had given him was a kiss, and a kiss was always meant to be shared between those who shared a particular fondness for each other-

shared between those who loved each other.

yet romeo found that he did not dislike your kiss, not even in the slightest.

you keep your lips pressed against his cheek for a few more beats before pulling away to whisper, "i know you won't hurt me, because i won't ever hurt you..."

you meet his gaze once more, smiling brightly at him when you admit, "you are perfect...and beautiful to me."

with your soft kindness and beauty filling him, romeo found himself looking at you with a sense of longing, the once still mechanical heart that was locked in his chest suddenly feeling as though it was coming to life for the first time in years.

romeo acts on this strange desire, hands placing themselves on your neck as he brings you even closer to him, copying your prior movements when he places his own, cold lips against the heated skin of your forehead, allowing them to warm him when he whispers to you,

"with you, i feel again."

a.n. - i am so in love with romeo. after my friend had revealed him to me in a leak, and i could hear what he sounded like, i am so, utterly in love with him. this is so self indulgent and i am soooo sorry.

👑~🐈‍⬛~👑~🐈‍⬛~👑~🐈‍⬛~👑~🐈‍⬛~👑~🐈‍⬛~👑~🐈‍⬛~👑~

Disclaimer: Romeo and Carlo never get the petrification disease.

Euphonious - adj. - (of sound, especially speech) pleasing to the ear.

A solo is played out beautifully, only meant for my ears alone. The instrument I play is none like any other, but it is perfect in every way despite being made of flesh. My hand presses softly against their neck, earning me a soft gasp. A whimper follows after my lips press to their chest. The sounds of our hips meeting and the bed creaking sets a feverous tempo. Yet, their moans sing out for me and my love is the most addicting part. Each moan is different from the other as I play with their body, and I plan on memorizing each of them by heart. I never need to hear another orchestra or singer when I have my precious ‘cantante’.

*smack!*

“Ow! What the hell, Carlo?!” I say defensively

“Welcome back to reality, Prince Charming,” Carlo responds sarcastically.

I can practically feel him roll his eyes at me under his cat mask. Rolling my shoulders, I readjust my lion mask before elbowing him.

“Cut it out, you two.” A voice cuts in before they wrap their arms around our necks and pull us close.

“(Name).” we both respond before smiling and removing our masks.

The soft scent of petrichor can be barely masked by the smell of blood and grease. Yet, I wouldn’t have it any other way. How I wish to pull them closer and mark their neck while rubbing their thigh. Moving my hand a little higher before-

“Romeo!” (Name) shouts this time while looking at me unamused.

“He’s been like this all day” Carlo responds also unamused.

“I’m fine, you two.”

They both look unconvinced but don’t push further.

“I’m going to scout ahead. (Stalker Name), get The King out of here until he gets his head together. I’ll regroup with you two later”

We watch Carlo slip on his cat mask back on. While me and (Name) slip our masks back on as well.

“Stay safe, Stray Cat. We’ll meet at the house on Elysion Boulevard.” (Name) says before hugging him and turning to me.

Carlo takes off quietly and I look back at (Name).

“Penny for your thoughts?” They ask with concern

“I’ll tell you if you beat me at a race to the rendezvous,” I say before taking off.

“No fair! You cheater! You got a head start!”

I can’t help the smirk forming under my mask as we run along the rooftops of Krat. Looking at them right behind me with a smile of their own. The adrenaline rushed through us and we began to reach our destination fast. I notice the lack of a second pair of footsteps and I look back. (Name) was nowhere to be seen and I halted for a second. Suddenly, (Name) jumps over me and runs ahead while laughing.

“You snooze, you lose, King!”

I immediately ran after them while shaking my head in false disappointment. Oh, when I get my hands on them… My long legs began to close the distance between us and they sped up their pace. The chase was thrilling and I was the lion about to pounce their reward. (Name) jumps down into the alleyway and finally leans against the door of our destination. With sharp eyes, I watch their chest heave as they pant.

“I- *pant*…. Won- *pant*… you cheater…”

I continue to walk towards them before suddenly pinning them to the door.

“O-oh!…”

I lean close and stare them down. Their stutter makes the smirk on my face grow.

“I saw your dirty little move back there. So since we both cheated I say it’s a draw.”

“W-wha- that’s not fair- ah!”

I open the door behind them suddenly, almost letting them fall. Before holding them by the waist and pulling them close.

“How about we both share the reward?” I whisper against their neck before nipping it teasingly.

“First, why don’t you tell me what’s been going on in that head of yours, Romeo,” they say as they slowly take off my mask.

Their hands tangle in my hair and can’t help but melt. I pull them to the old sofa and set them on my lap. With hazy eyes, I pull them into a kiss as my hands work to undress them.

“Romeo, talk to me, love.” They mumble against my lips.

I grind against them before tracing their bare chest. Taking a nipple into my mouth and sucking eagerly. A gasp escapes their throat and I smile. The song has begun.

“R-Romeo… don’t- ngh… ignore my question” they struggle to voice out as I continue to play with their chest.

I feel their hands tangle in my hair and I can't help but groan. Suddenly, they tug at my hair. Pulling me away from their chest like an unwanted leech.

“Romeo! Stop avoiding my question!” They huff out.

I sigh before suddenly pinning them down on the sofa.

“You want to know?” I growl into their ear while using one of my hands to pin their hands down.

“How I crave- no- need to hear your sweet sounds?”

I press my hip against theirs to make sure they feel my need. My other hand is working away on getting rid of their pants.

“Sing for me~ I want to hear every. Single. Noise.”

My lips find their way back to their chest and I continue to suck and nibble. Earning me a string of whimpers and moans. I pull away to take off my own clothes before going back to ravishing them. Every noise is nothing but pure euphonious to my ergo.

“R-Romeo… what if Carlo comes back?” They moan out.

“It’ll be fine. You know he likes taking his time”

I pull down their undergarments and lean down. Pressing soft kisses and bites along their inner thigh. Never going where they wanted it most.

“P-please… Romeo…. Don’t t-tease…” they whimper out deliciously.

“Beg.”

I watch them look at me before swallowing thickly.

“Please, Romeo,” they say quietly

I bite their inner thigh a little harder.

“You know how I want it. So beg.”

“Romeo! Please! Please use your mouth! I need it so badly! Please!” They finally cry out and I instantly use my mouth on them.

My tongue licks long slow strips along their most sensitive parts. Ripping out more noises from their throat as I continue to lick and suck at them. I feel their hand tangle in my hair and their back start to arch. Their toes curl and I pull away with a loud pop.

“No! Romeo! Please don’t stop!” They cry out as I deny them of their orgasm.

“Don’t be selfish, cantante~”

I press the tip of my cock to their tight entrance. Smearing my precum around it and taking my time to enjoy them squirming. Slowly I slide in and we both moan at the feeling. They claw at my back and I grip their hip tighter. Eventually, I bottomed out and our foreheads pressed together. We’re both panting and our hearts are racing. Slowly I begin to move and I feel them clench around me.

“Say my name, cantante~ I want to hear you sing for all of Krat”

I thrust a little faster before letting my mouth wander back to their chest.

“Romeo~! Oh god~! Romeo~! Don’t stop~!”

Their voice can’t even be compared to Adeline's. The way every noise slips past their throat like a siren call. Ensnaring my mind and causing my body to move more desperately. I grab their leg and push it against their body to reach deeper. Making them sing out louder for me. Our bodies are a beautiful sweaty tangled masterpiece. (Name)’s voice reached a crescendo and I knew our song was nearing an end. I leaned in and kissed them before burying myself as deep as I could. They cried out before we both collapsed on the sofa together. I laid my head on their torso while their hands mindlessly played with my hair. The sounds of their heartbeat thumping steadily help me calm down. I look up at their face adoringly before tracing them with my thumb.

“So… round two?” I ask mischievously

“Carlo is going to come back soon, we should clean up”

“A little too late for that, you two.” A voice came from the doorway.

We both immediately perk up and see Carlo taking off his mask. He closes the door before fiddling with his belt.

“What’s wrong? Cat got your tongue?”

A Promise (Stalker!Carlo x G/N!Reader x Stalker!Romeo) Pt. 2

Pt. 1

Here is part 2 of A Promise, this is the reader's perspective where they are sent back to when the puppet frenzy happen, this is an au where Romeo doesn't control the puppets since he is a Stalker and never became the puppet king.

Summary: After finding a locket that seems so familiar in Venigni's factory, the reader finds themselves back in time to when the puppet frenzy was going on, and they meets two men who claims to know them.

◇◇◇

"Man this place is incredible!" Y/N muttered in awe as they looked at the sign on the front of Venigni Works.

Back in the 1800s, this place made pretty much all of the technology that the city of Krat had which made the entire city famous back then for being way ahead of it's time.

And after the puppet frenzy that caused chaos for the whole city, so many slaughtered by puppets or the petrification disease, eventually it ended by some stalkers and many years later, the city was rebuilt and made into a whole tourist attraction with museums at the factory, the grand expedition which was already a museum as was, even hotel Krat was partially a museum, but still was a hotel.

They were on a trip abroad with some of their classmates for college, and when they heard where the department they were in was going for the trip, they instantly signed up.

They had heard stories about Krat and read books about the city and found it all fascinating.

On the first day, they all went to see City Hall and Krat Central Station, then the next day was the Malum District.

They had already seen Rosa Isabelle street yesterday, and today they were going to go to the Grand Exhibition with their classmates, but when they heard about Venigni Works, they decided to stop by there before meeting up with their classmates at the Exhibition.

To not take so long, Y/N just looked around the front area of the factory, which already had quite a bit of things on display.

Displays of the trams that were around the city, displays of some of the puppets that were manufactured there.

They found everything so interesting.

Eventually they made their way back to the entrance, where they looked at some more puppets that were made.

One that caught their eye was an older looking puppet.

He was dressed in a stripped red jacket and black stripped pants, and he held a white towel with one arm.

A butler puppet?

As they read a plaque about the butler puppet, learning that his name was Pulcinella, the sound of their phone ringing startled them.

Pulling their phone out, they saw they were getting a call from their friend.

"Oh shit." They muttered as they answered the call.

"Y/N, where are you? You might want to head over to the Exhibition before it gets late."

"Yeah, I'm on my way, just lost track of time. I'll be there soon, I promise."

"You better, your missing out on some cool stuff over here."

Y/N chuckle a bit.

"Got it, see you soon."

Y/N then hung up the call and slipped their phone into their pocket as they started making their way back towards the entrance.

But as they walked down the hallway leading to the front of the factory, a single door caught their eye.

It was a bit larger than all the other normal doors, and it had an elegant V on it as well as swirly designs in the middle.

"An office maybe?"

Looking around to see if anyone was around since they didn't know if it was off-limits.

They didn't know why, but it felt like something was drawing them towards the door.

Grabbing the doorknob, they were honestly surprised that the door was unlocked.

Opening the door, they were met with a tidy office.

There were models of trams, of the factory, even the grand expedition building.

But what caught their attention was a portrait hanging on the wall behind the desk.

It was of Lorenzini Venigni himself.

And in his arms was a child.

They seemed to be pretty young, perhaps about three years old if they had to guess, and the child had h/c hair and e/c eyes.

"I don't remember Venigni being married, maybe he adopted them?" They mumbled as they didn't remember reading anything about Venigni being married or having kids.

Y/N did notice that the child looked like them if they were a kid again, but it could have just been a coincidence, so they brushed it off.

"Must have kept it to himself that he had a kid."

Looking away from the portrait, they continued to look around the office, looking at the models, but as they looked at the Venigni Works factory model, they noticed a button hidden underneath the sign.

Curious, Y/N pushed it.

At first nothing happened, but a second later, they heard a small click coming from behind them.

Looking back, they saw the portrait was now swung open a little, revealing a small shelf with a journal and a small box.

Picking up the journal, Y/N opened it up to a random page and began reading.

It has been a year since the Petrification Disease got to the Monad Charity House in Rosa Isabelle street. Fortunately, Romeo and Carlo, who I see as my own sons, made it out alive and thankfully not affected by the disease, but when I heard news of my child had gone missing, a part of my world has shattered. Everyone assumed they died to the disease, but I know they aren't dead. I know Y/N is still out there somewhere, and that they are still alive. I have lost my parents when i was a child, I'm not going to lose anymore of my family.

"So this is why nothing is known on Venigni's child, poor kid. I wonder what happened to them." They them closed the journal and then picked up the small box.

It was light, but there was something inside that had a little bit of weight to it.

Gently lifting the lid up, their eyes widened when they saw a silver locket with a blue gem in the center of it.

"This thing must've been very important if he had it hidden away."

Gently pressing a finger onto the blue gem, a flash of a bright blue light, blinding the college student for a moment before it faded away, leaving the office dark.

"Alright, putting it away so that doesn't happen again." they muttered as they placed the lid back on the box.

But that's when they noticed that the office was now trashed instead of how tidy it was just a moment ago.

And the portrait was now gone.

"What the..." they started but was cut off by loud screeching coming from outside.

What was going on?

Placing the box into their coat pocket, Y/N approached the door and opened it to see the whole area completely wrecked.

Remembering where the front of the factory was, Y/N ran down the hall back to the front, which was now empty compared to earlier when they arrived at the factory.

When they got to where the gate was, they were shocked to see the gate to the factory now blocked.

"How am I suppose to get out?!" They exclaimed, starting to panic.

Looking around, they saw the ladders of a scaffolding that wasn't there before, leading up to the roof of the building.

Maybe there was a way down from there.

Putting their backpack that they had on fully to make sure it didn't fall off their shoulders, Y/N hurriedly climbed up each ladder.

But when they got to the roof, they froze at the sight they were met with.

The whole city from what they could see was abandoned.

Buildings wrecked, and so many puppets around on the streets, many holding weapons.

'No way, I can't be back to when the puppet frenzy happened, that's impossible! I have to be having a nightmare.' They thought as they slowly made their way down the stairs to the ground.

They had to get to the hotel.

Knowing they had to run past all the puppets on the bridge, they took a shakey breath before sprinting right past them all, causing them to screech as they began to throw things at them and chase after them.

They managed to get across the bridge but they weren't able to get any further as the puppets blocked the only way to the hotel that they knew of.

So they went to the left path which was the only open path for them to go.

Sprinting down the small street, past a telephone and went right, but they were met to a locked gate.

"Are you kidding me?"

They looked around to see if there was any place at all to hide, but that's when a pair of arms wrapped around their waist and whoever it was pulled them inside a building.

"Hey, let go of me!" They exclaimed as they tried to pry the person's arms off of them.

Whoever it was froze for a moment before turning them around, and they were face to face with a man wearing a crow mask while there was another man who was wearing a white fox mask.

"Y/N?"

The man with the fox mask asked as they stepped towards Y/N, his hand reaching out to their face, causing them to flinch away.

"Who are you people? Where am I?" They asked as the other man, who was holding them, finally released them.

"What do you mean? Y/N, it's us." The man in the fox mask said, a hint of frustration as well as desperation in his voice.

Y/N gave him a deadpan look.

"Seriously?" They asked annoyed.

The man in the crow mask looked to the other and realized what they meant.

"Oh, our masks Carlo."

The two then pulled their masks off, revealing their faces.

The one who was wearing the crow mask, had shoulder length sandy blonde hair that was pulled back in a ribbon.

He had hazel eyes and slightly tanned skin.

The other man who was wearing the fox mask, he had dark brown hair that went a bit past his ears, and amber colored eyes.

He had paler skin than the other man.

Y/N's eyebrows furrowed, deep in thought.

They looked so familiar, but they didn't remember from where, and they were sure they never met them until now.

Carlo...

They had also heard that name before.

"Y/N, it's us, Romeo and Carlo, don't you remember? We met when you and your father visited the Monad Charity House, the locket that we bought for you? We've been friends for years!" The blonde man, Romeo, desperately said, trying to get them to remember something.

But the word locket caught their attention.

"Wait, locket?"

They slipped their hand in their pocket and pulled out the box with the locket that they found at Venigni's factory.

They never had the chance to open the locket itself since they were being chased.

To be honest, they completely forgot about it until Romeo mentioned it.

Taking the locket out of the box, they opened it and felt chills all over their body when they saw what was inside.

There was a photo inside, it was the two men, but they seemed to be a few years younger in the photo.

They were wearing the monad charity house uniforms from what they could remember from when they went to Rosa Isabelle Street, and between them was someone who looked exactly like them, but they were wearing something that was from around the late 1900s to early 2000s.

So the child in the portrait back at the factory.

Was that child really them?

'No way...' They thought as their heart pounded in their chest and they began to hyperventilate.

They were not from this time.

They couldn't be.

Y/N's head began to throb in pain, causing them to drop the locket as they held their head.

Their eyes squeezed shut from the pain.

"Y/N?"

When they felt a hand land on their shoulder, that's when everything went dark.

◇◇◇

I hope you all liked part 2, sorry if I made any mistakes in it, I tried my best while trying to get homework done for my college classes. And I will be doing part 3 as soon as I can!

A Romeo headcanon for everyone. He never cared where [Name] came from. It never mattered to him if they were a commoner or noble, as long as they respect and love each other... That is everything he needs. Romeo stay with them as long as they want him to be with them. Would sneak into their room if they ask him to be with you during they day or night, even when their parents don't allow it. Nothing stopp him from making sure his lover feels comfortable and happy.

Nothing...

...

Expect the mess. The riot. The puppets. The monsters. The people with bad hearts.

And the feeling inside his mind that makes it so hard for him to remember who...

That [Name] person was?

Romeo and Carlo headcanons!!!

topic: they having a crush

some people might disagree with what I'm about to say, but I think both of them are the complete opposite of each other when it comes to like someone

Romeo: Romantic, the perfect word to describe this boy, even if he's shy around the girl/boy he is in love, he'd be very polite, gentle and lovely to them, bring'em some flowers, jokingly flirt(or at least try), invite them to cute dates and always try to have their attention, when ready to he will confess his feelings!

Carlo: Don't get me wrong, but he's mad bad at trying to hide the way he feels, flirting? Not even a chance, this boy will get those cheeks red before even saying a word, just like a child, I can see him running away everytime his crush is around. Candies, flowers, and poems? Nah, he will be annoying and making fun of them, so it doesn't seem he has a crush(that doesn't work). Carlo definitely refuses to follow his best friend's advices.

Deathly Silent

Carlo P x Puppet! Reader

⚠️ Content warnings⚠️: The confusion of feelings, eluding that Oil is blood so... Blood warning? (Reader gets hurt) Carlo is dead, RIP. And P is confused-

(Puppets speaking in "Italics" are speaking in the puppet language)

(Also, art at the bottom is made by me! (⁠ﾉ⁠◕⁠ヮ⁠◕⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠*⁠.⁠✧)

Part. 2

You felt lost.

So... So lost, after feeling the only warmth that you could associate with your humanity, gone within an instant.

His words stuck with you, even as you held a corps, a beautiful one, even as you felt something extremely hard bash against your head, causing you to jerk forward from the harsh blow.

Beads of oil cascade down your cracked skull, dripping and splattering against Carlo's cold forehead. Slowly turning to see the cause of all of Carlo's suffering, brandishing a steel pipe, now coated with remains of the puppets overdue attack.

This man was your creator.

But he couldn't control you, not like he wanted anyways.

Without so much as a flinch, you placed the boy down back into his death bed, paying no mind to the puppet maker's grieving face when he looked at his son's pale freckled face.

Unmoving, and as silent as the dead air that surrounded all of Krat.

Taking his sheets, draping them over the body.

Geppetto watched with intensity, his fingers twitching around his weapon.

He wanted to strike again, but you weren't attacking.

Well, not like you could anyways.

His initial thought was that you had broken in and slaughtered his ill son, but when he took a better look at him, your blood was on him, not his.

Carlo's hand was held against your own, and it looked you were debating on staying till you ran out of Ergo, or let yourself shut down.

But you couldn't, knowing that would never bring the boy back.

So, you slid your hand out of the boys crystal encased fingers, and stood up.

You never raised your vision to the only occupant to the room, and jerkily walked back to the shattered glass window. Lifting half of your sagging body out of the window frame.

Only then it started raining, washing off the tainted blood coating your fingers, as you climbed down and disappeared into the dimly lit streets of Krat.

-----------------

It had only been a couple days before you gained a very vivid connection to something...

No wait,

It was someone,

Someone you knew.

It caused you to bolt up, the springs located in your back clicking into and out of place constantly. You defiantly had seen better days, the walking had caused your leg to give out, and avoiding people all together. It suddenly made you sick to see the horrid blue color, some people were lucky to even be healthy in a place like this. But you had too many run-in's with such people, making sure that you backed off, or nabbed a good hit or two.

But, with grit teeth, and the last bit of Ergo you had left, you managed to make it to the signal.

You had made it to the Estella Opera House.

Where there was a huge stage. Bright red curtains, and filled with blank Puppets, posing for a seemingly grand entrance.

A large puppet resembling a king fell from the rafters and nearly crushed you!- Not only did it's initial design spurred you to wanting to flee immediately, it slowly started to lean down. Voice exceedingly clear.

"Hey...! Don't be afraid! It's me, remember? Romeo."

The metal breastplate of the large Puppet opened, and inside was a seemingly newly crafted puppet.

That looked almost exactly like the blond boy you had grown up With.

He smiled, bowing while the other blank Puppet's clapped an encore. You almost did the same on an unknown impulse, but your body just couldn't keep up due to how badly damaged you had gotten.

This... Romeo instantly ran up to you, checking the damage.

"I see Krat hasn't been so kind to you..."

With a snap of his fingers, some of the puppets that were in the sidelines quickly rushed to your aid. Taking you to a side workshop to fix more of the notable damage you had attained, and given you a new Ergo crystal charge.

He was able to control puppets?Just what was going on?

You haven't spoken since the sudden urge to kill became unbearable, certain feelings you once had, were overshadowed by that killer instinct.

You wanted to feel that warmth again, those feelings were not forgotten yet, and it'll only be a matter of time before you'll go completely blind for the rest of your feeble puppet life.

Romeo seemed to understand your struggle, almost to a fault.

He looked saddened, placing a cold finger against the newly sealed cracks against the base of your skull, checking if anything else needed mending.

"I know Carlo meant a lot you. Me too, you know? He was my best friend." Romeo started, causing your eyes to slowly peer up at your friend.

"Which is why... I asked Geppetto to turn me into a puppet."

Oh... That was unexpected.

The interlocking of your brows showed concern, reaching out to brush away loose blond strands of hair away from Romeo's face.

He could tell that you were silently questioning why.

Why go through with such a transformation in the first place?

And so, the newly appointed puppet boy sat with you, it was a very human interaction, not the sort of unemotional interaction you usually got with other puppets.

Maybe because Romeo was once human as well?

You listened, and you listened just as intently as you once did with Carlo.

Romeo had gotten the infection not so far from Carlo did, but before he could bite the blue dust, he asked to be made into a Puppet, to help stop the infection.

And having control to almost all of the puppets with Geppetto's blessings.

But as time went, Romeo noticed that Geppetto's blatant disregard for the people of Krat, letting the majority either die from his puppets, or from the disease.

Romeo had to put a stop to it, he defied death and went to fight against Geppetto and the alchemists.

That... Was a very noble thing to do.

You didn't know that Romeo contacted the disease, or was on the verge of death before Geppetto's assistance. But something almost... Ticked you off the wrong way.

As if something was horribly amiss.

You never strayed away from that feeling; practically the only feeling you suddenly felt in a long while.

Romeo stood, mechanical clicks following his every step. Glassy hazelnut eyes hung on every detail of your wiring.

"I could help you, you know. Protect yourself, grow stronger so that the citizens of Krat can't take you apart like that again."

He lifted his hand to hold out- an offer.

Peace and no quarrels.

Romeo was just as kind at heart, from what you could remember.

So, you grazed his hand, and let him lead you to one of the many rooms in the theater backstage.

Unbeknownst to you, he smiled at the shining ring that wrapped around your finger. Eyes shining with a fresh hurt that never left the boy.

"Now tell me, would you like your own Gemini?"

--------

You stayed with Romeo for a long while, even as the city of Krat had grown unforgiving.

Natural disasters wiped out most of Krat's populous, the puppets and plague didn't help with that factor against humans.

Romeo had a few run-in's with said disasters. His pristine new coat of paint and gears, slowly chipped away.

You were usually in your own designated favorite area, where no one could bother you.

After getting fixed, Romeo had taught you how to defend yourself from anything.

A simple sword would do, nothing too fancy for anything other than defense.

Romeo wanted to teach you some tricks, from his training with Carlo on being a Stalker.

But you refused, not exactly favoring the aggressive tactics that they would usually go for.

You had lost yourself once, you weren't going to do it again.

Especially now that Romeo had done so much to help you.

And you suspect that he was the one making sure that you didn't spiral off into another mindless killing spree like the other puppets.

He just wouldn't admit that.

A small noise rose from the small cage that you carried around your belt.

A cricket chirped against the bars before they spoke.

Their voice soft and well spoken, but very friendly and curious.

"Are you alright dear? You seem, lost in thought."

You turned to look at the mechanical bug, their light glowed a light pinkish-red color.

Plucking the cage against your fingers, and holding the bottom with your palms, staring at the talking mechanical cricket.

"Why doe's Geppetto want to kill people?"

You sounded like a little kid asking about something they didn't understand to their mother. Expecting all the answers to just be said right on the spot so that you could finally understand.

Romeo gave you the rundown, after noticing more than half the population was dead at the end of the month. Ergo was being collected by Geppetto,

and you didn't know what he was going to do with it...

You were left in a dark place, trying to understand certain things on your own. No guide to help you, only Carlo and Romeo's human influence's kept you going.

Your guide kept quiet for a small tick, before making a clicking sound.

"I do not know the Puppet makers plans for the collection of Ergo." They could see the furrow of your brows as you looked passed the iron bars of their enclosure, the light dancing against your hard skin.

"But what I do know, is that you're a smart person. If anyone could figure it out soon, I'd bet it'd be you in no time at all!"

That perked you up, feeling a smile cross your lips at the mini automation.

You liked getting new feelings that welled in your chest, it reminded you of the good times. Human emotions were coming back to you little by little with the help of your new friend.

With childish intent, you placed a small kiss to the cage, and hugged the object to your cheek, as a small laugh came from your cricket.

--------------

A blue glow woke you from your slumber.

Opening your eyes, you were met face to face with a glowing blue butterfly. It whispers your name, practically calling to you with such allure.

It takes off, and dances around your head in ringlets before fluttering off before you could catch it.

It flutters tauntingly slow, seemingly wanting you to follow.

You were never one to be so easy to deceit, especially now that there were humans that made it an immediate mission to kill you. It could be a trick, but... you had your weapon, a quick peak wouldn't hurt right?

hosting your weapon, and making sure your cricket was nice and settled, you ventured forward, following a peculiar blue butterfly.

The fluttering flow lead you through twists and turns, the Ergo it emitted felt ghost-like.

Could it be that you're finally loosing your mind?

Soon, the butterfly dissipated around the corner, turning quickly, it was nowhere to be seen.

Shifting your eyes rapidly, running up to an empty part of Krat city hall only to completely loose sight of that beautiful blue bell butterfly.

biting your lip in slight disappointment, you huffed before starting to make your way back to your area.

But what you didn't expect, was to narrowly dodge a horrifyingly fast grappling hook.

Backing away quickly, you snapped your head at your attacker.

It could be that stupid donkey that's been giving you problems... but you don't remember if he ever had such a weapon, other than that heavy sword he carried.

No, instead what you saw... wasn't what you were expecting.

A boy, from what you gathered, with fluffy black hair that cut just before it met his jaw, wearing a very familiar boarding school uniform. It fit a little small on him, almost looking like a teen wearing kids cloths.

But his expression didn't fit the bill of a child's gentleness; well- it did, but cutting through his soft, handsome features, was a sharp icy look in his eyes that stared you down.

you could hear the clicking and ticking of his puppet arm, holding up a blade to it as he slowly walked towards you, bringing his weapon of choice up to sharpen it against the metal gears of his legion arm.

One word: Menacing.

But another thought surfaced.

"Carlo?"

He didn't responded to that name, he didn't even look like he acknowledged you even in the slightest.

Then, in one quick move, he dashed straight towards you, weapon ready to strike with precise movement, and monstrous speed that no human was able to recreate.

But you were still quick, unsheathing your sword, you shielded yourself from the extremely hard blow before the blade could touch your face.

He was close, way too close for your liking.

But now you could get a look at his details.

From afar, he looked like a regular, normal human boy. Freckles dotted his face like stars, and those eyes... they didn't shine like Carlo's. They reminded you more like yourself, new, unknown of the world around him. And it seemed he had so much to learn.

And that's when you noticed it, the clicking and ticking sound didn't come just from his arm, it came from all around him, his joints, his neck and his eyes looked more glassy than what would be normal for a human being.

He was a puppet; a puppet that was near identical to Carlo.

It all made sense now...

The puppet boy parried your block, causing you to skid back, leaving narrow time to block yet another slash from his weapon. You couldn't admire him long, before going for yet another attack.

The puppet seemed listless against his persute to end you, and you couldn't help feel a painful jab of hurt to hit you where your heart should be.

"You... You're not Carlo."

It was a realization that got your nerves in a twist, and the look of slight confusion twitched against his face, only grew to sadden and confuse you more.

It was only then that he cleared the sudden fog in his gears, lifting his weapon to swifly lay an exctreamly violent hit to the side of your ribcage. Oil and Ergo splashed and dripped out of your newly aquired wound.

Usualy, you'd be quite calm about getting attacked, but the feeling of wanting to run overwhelmed you, but it seemed fate had other plans for you.

Right when you thought that you could turn quick enough, the puppet beat you to it. Kicking you to the ground rather harshly against the damp cobble stone streets.

You were met with a blade pointed inches to your face, watching as the puppet slowly got ready to strike, raising your blade to shieild yourself...

a moment... or two?

You didn't feel any preasure, or spillage of your wiring and Oil.

Just silence, as you slowly peaked from behinf your blade.

The blue butterfly from before, was perched onto the very tip of his blade, where the puppet looked curiously at.

His eye's didn't scream murder anymore, just curiousity and confusion- Like the Carlo you definently remembered.

The butterfly flapped it's wings gently, fluttering from the blade toards your out streched hand, watching as the gentle creature placed itself on your closed fist, and onto the ring that you had never tooken off.

Then, it magically dissapated into pure Ergo through your fingers and into your strings.

You felt your gears begin to shift...

"what... was that.."

You spoke to yourself, watching as the blue glow had slowly started to disapear, the light vapors creating a comforting warmth of the life you already had.

You suddenly see the Puppet boy shift to look at you quickly, eyes wide and staring at you, getting down into a squat and slowly starting to oberve you. It was an odd sight, watching the puppet that had been trying to kill you, take quick interest after that butterfly had landed on you.

Then, as if things weren't moving any faster than it already was for you; the Puppet grabbed your hand and pulled out a glowing blue pocket watch.

Unknown to what he was planning, you automatically shifted away, taking your hand back.

The boy reached out again, his confused face now being ingrained in your memory for the nth-time that evening.

Rushing back into the dark streets of Krat, loosing sight of you.

And you, loosing sight of your puppet self, without even knowing.
