The incubi with an s/o that’s an Egyptian queen in their under realm

Uuuuuhhhh nice, I really like it. If I see you guys looooove it like I do, I’ll make a oneshot !!! Before starting, a little clarification. The S/O have their tattoos and skin in esmerald shade (sorry if it is not your favorite color) and can transformed into a snake of the same color, apart from being able to change the size depending on the situation; Aaaaand they can also transform into a black cat.

Let’s Goooooooo

_** **_

James

Both of tou met when The Demon Lord suggested that a marriage agreement between the two realms would facilitate the attainment of more power and strength.

James didn’t really like the idea of marriage, and you less.

Buuut, keep a badasssss look you guys, no matter the circunstancies.

You and your parents traveled to his kingdom and let’s say the meeting between you five wasn’t the most pleasant.

Your parents accepting the offer, but only if you agreed to marry James, otherwise, there would be no agreement.

You on the other side, indifference to the whole situation, just wishing to get into the first library you saw and stay there until departure.

A shy and extremly nervous incubbaby James.

The Demon Lord angry AF, threatening to invade your kingdom if you didn’t accept marriage.

Aaaaanyway, bad first meetings to the side, you saw James again in the throne room when you were reading a huge book about war tactics.

“Who do you think you are, sittting comfortably on the king’s throne?”

That fucking imp, since you arrived he doesn’t leave you alone. Wherever you go, this bastard always has a criticism to make.

“It should be an action of treason, just waits until The Demon Lord knows about this, you’ll regr…”

“Leave her alone, NOW”

James to the rescue, anyone doubt it for a moment?

The imp left, cursing under his breath.

“Forgive his habits of meddling where they don’t call him, it’s quite irritating.”

“Yes, too much. It wasn’t necessary for you to came to defend me, if he had continued a little longer I would have injected my poison. He would have been paralyzed for a few days, damn spawn. ”

poison? James.exe stops working

You had to transform yourself so the poor baby could understand.

James.exe loves it

And when you stayed in a naga version, he may have discovered a new kink.

Leaving the “arranged” marriage, you really got along, even on the days you stayed in his kingdom, a little love story could’ve been born.

Heartbroken when you had to return to your kingdom.

The two of you gave each other a small memory to not forget.

You gave him a small jar with your poison to use in that unfortunate servant.

He gave you one of his favorite books.

More heartbroken to know he leaves with his brothers to the human world, leaving you behind, alone.

Erik

Both of you met in the gardens of your kingdom (strange thing, right?)

For some strange reason, which wasn’t an arranged marriage or an alliance, The Demon Lord decided to visit your parents’ kingdom, and with him he took James and Erik.

While The Demon Lord and his “favorite heir” had a private audience with your parents, Erik was allowed to roam the long, heated halls of the castle.

Your fucking kingdom is very veeeeeeeeeeery hot, what the hell !!

He found a large entrance with the rarest and most startling flowers he has ever seen and, out of simple and obvious curiosity, he passed the threshold, to end up up encountering an immense garden.

An incredible view if I say so myself.

And speaking of views … your emerald skin positioned in the middle of the garden could called the attention of any demon.

“Ah! Aren’t you a beautiful sight? I wouldn’t be bother to melt on your beautiful skin. ”

If looks could kill … your kingdom would already be at war with Erik’s.

“Is that how you generally introduce yourself? Without saying your name or bothering to know it of the other person with whom you blatantly try to flirt? ”

Matthew voice You’re going to need some cold water for that burn.

“I’m sorry, you’re totally right, it wasn’t my intention to disrespect you in that way. My sincere apologies ”

Okey-dokey, leaving bad impressions aside, let’s go to the good.

His stay in your castle made the free and boring time before your coronation more enjoyable.

Taking care of the garden.

Reading poems.

Allow Erik to participate in political meetings between the two kingdoms.

Long nights talking about everything and nothing.

You promised to see each other again on your coronation’s day.

Spend some time alone after so much stress.

Breakfast with the dawn.

Among many other sweet things.

But that meeting never happened.

Sam

First very bad impression.

At first he thought you were one of his damn father’s new wives. He received you with enough servers and put together a great banquet to introduce you to his sons.

With the cards on the table and Sam understanding you were actually going to be betrothed by one of the incubrothers, his angry face broke down.

Sam being Sam, he denied the option of being a suitor in that damn arranged marriage.

He tried to avoid you most of the time you were in the palace.

No speaking, No eye contact, nothing.

It started to be irritating.

He thought you were a silly princess who needed thousands of servants to survive and that your only goal in your pathetic life was to marry and be queen.

He had the audacity to say it in the throne room when you confronted him for being so rude.

He turned his back on you before you could even open your mouth and went to the door.

“I don’t think you know who you’re talking to”

You reached him in a second, like…how the fuck?

He then notice your esmerald naga form, with emerald snake eyes.

Fucking badass if he say so.

Maybe a little turn on.

He took his time to meditate and apologize. His pride didn’t let him looked at you in the eye.

He talks to you whenever he feels alone in this big fucking castle. He starts to enjoy your company too.

Loves when you become a snake to scare away his servants.

You may or may not let him get on your tail and take a quick and small walk in the … gardens? Back of the castle? Whatever

You are there when he need towreak his anger from a bad day.

He tried to take you with him and his brothers to the human world, but for you, it was impossible.

“I am the only heir to my parents’ kingdom, I am devoted to my people, I can’t abandon them”

You may have seen him shed a tear before he crossed the portal.

And that was the last time you see each other, for 10 long years.

Matthew

While walking through the palace inventing new toys, he saw a small black spot moving with the corner of his eye.

When he turned his head, that spot was gone.

Back to bussines then.

But before he could even think of a new design, he felt something brush his leg.

He looked down and a little black cat with big emerald eyes was stroking his leg with its head.

He have diessss for cutenes !!!

He’s stroking his head for a while when an imp of his father appeared inside the map.

“It’s amazing that The Demon Lord continues to let you live in his castle, you’re nothing more than an immature and childish demon”

Matthew was already used to this kind of comment and it was better to ignore them than to confront them.

But apparently a certain cat did not think the same.

What was once a small feline with black fur, was now a huge emerald snake two meters long.

The snake squeezed the damn imp until he goes violet and left him unconscious for a good while.

Matthew may have been scared a little.

BUT… low key sattisfac.

“What would you do without me, sweet cheeks?”

He was taken back by the previous transformation that didn’t realized that the snake was now a succubus of emerald eyes and tattoos.

He never knew that a succubus could look good with snake’s eyes.

Also, whe he knew you’re a QUEEN?!?!?!

Fuck yeah !! You’re even more hotter.

Loves to give you some of his toys, even the weird ones.

Absolutly LOVES when he cooks for you..oh, OH, no, delate that. HE REAAAALLLY LOVES when both of you go to the fucking kitchen and cook the fucking living shit for the both of us.

Every plate cames out more delicious than the previous one.

He give you a few recipes for you to try in your kingdom at the time of your departure.

Cooking is a way to remember the sweetness and love that Matthew managed to give you during the few days you were in his castle.

That habit becomes a nightmare when a servant entered the kitchen to warn you that the children from The Demon Lord went to the human world.

The cake you planned to send was scattered all over the floor.

Damien

He was being ridiculed by one of his “father’s” trusted servants when he met you.

“It’s only a matter of time before The Demon Lord throw you out of the castle like a malnourished dog.”

Do you know what is the worst? Not the heartbreaking comments, but Damien getting used to hearing them.

“It is a miracle that you are still alive despite the non-existent food that we are allowed to give you. You are nothing but a hindrance to everyone here, why don’t you do us a favor, including you, and leave before our lord … “

The servant was paralyzed and turned violet … apart from falling to the ground completely rigid.

“Are you ok? Are you hurt? Do you need something? ”

An angel sent from heaven.

Regain your composure Damien !!!!

His little knight to the rescue

Ok, I’m done.

Hidden readings in the library at the time he told you about his illiteracy.

Even once in a while you allow him to read your mind to continue learning to read and pronounce the letters.

Ancient and current Egyptian writing and reading classes.

Human language writing classes.

Talks in one of his brothers’ rooms.

“How can you become a snake?”

“Why doesn’t the color of your tattoos match the one of your eyes?”

“Do you spend a lot of energy transforming?”

“Can you avoid reading people’s minds?”

Oopss, delicate subject.

When you returned to your kingdom, you gave him a small mirror which had a twin in another part of the realm (more specifically your castle)

When he wanted, both of you could see each other from a distance and you could continue teaching him.

You broke the mirror the last time you saw Damien through it.

You saw him … in human clothes, in the human world, and he didn’t have the decency to warn you … or to take you with him.

At times, the modern political climate may seem stranger than fiction, so it may be comforting (or disconcerting) to know that several recent political events initially took place years prior, on NBC's beloved series The West Wing, which aired from 1999 to 2006. While some of its more prescient episodes tackle obvious issues (i.e. "Don't Ask, Don't Tell"), other coincidences are downright bizarre (i.e. characters who bear striking similarities to Barack Obama and John McCain squaring off in a presidential election four years before they did so in real life). Is creator Aaron Sorkin a soothsayer? Here, we break down the 19 times The West Wing most blatantly mirrored or predicted real-life politics. Bartlet for America indeed! Cuban refugees (Season 1, Episode 1):The West Wing's pilot, which aired on Sept. 22, 1999, focuses on the Bartlet administration dealing with a group of 137 Cuban refugees who come to the United States seeking asylum. The plot foreshadowed the real-life situation of Elian Gonzalez, a 6-year-old Cuban refugee whose mother drowned while attempting to bring him to the United States in November 1999. Supreme Court nominations (Season 1, Episode 9): In the episode "The Short List," when weighing the options for his first nomination to the Supreme Court, President Jed Bartlet (Martin Sheen) goes against popular thinking and decides to nominate the court's first Hispanic justice, a liberal from Brooklyn named Roberto Mendoza (Edward James Olmos). A decade later, for his first appointment to the high court, President Obama selected Bronx native Sonia Sotomayor, who became the first Hispanic Supreme Court justice. Privacy (Season 1, Episode 9): In the same Supreme Court episode, Bartlet drops his first pick for the nomination in part because of his views on privacy, which deputy White House communications director Sam Seaborn (Rob Lowe) warns will be the dominant issue of the next two decades. ("I'm talking about the Internet. I'm talking about cell phones. I'm talking about health records and who's gay and who's not.") Sam's prediction has come true, with both the Bush and Obama administrations having to tangle with privacy laws with regard to The Patriot Act, privacy issues surrounding social media use, and intellectual property legislation like the PROTECT IP Act and the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), to name a few. Hate crime legislation (Season 1, Episode 10): After press secretary C.J. Cregg (Allison Janney) hears about a high school student who was murdered for being gay, she tries to convince the other senior staff members to work on hate crime legislation in response. The episode was based on the real life case of Matthew Shepard, a gay teen who was murdered in 1998 in Wyoming. At the time, attempts were made to expand hate crime laws to include sexual orientation, but failed on both the federal and state levels. Ten years later, President Obama signed The Matthew Shepard Act into law. Federal executions (Season 1, Episode 14): On the West Wing episode "Take This Sabbath Day," President Bartlet debates reversing the Supreme Court's decision to execute a drug lord who had been convicted of a drug-related murder. (He decides to uphold the sentence.) This mirrors President Bill Clinton's decision to twice postpone the execution of drug kingpin and convicted murderer Juan Raul Garza, who was eventually put to death in June 2001 under President George W. Bush. "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" (Season 1, Episode 19): In the episode "Let Bartlet Be Bartlet," with the president's approval ratings plummeting, the senior staff comes to the realization that Bartlet has been "stuck in neutral" as he goes against his liberal instincts to appease moderates. The episode also features Sam and White House communications director Toby Ziegler (Richard Schiff) talking with military leaders about changing the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy toward gays. President Obama, who has faced similar criticism from some Democrats about not being liberal enough, repealed the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy in 2011. He also was the first president to come out in favor of gay marriage (possibly in response to a slip-of-the-tongue by Vice President Joe Biden) six months before the 2012 election. Big Block of Cheese Day (Seasons 1 and 2): In Seasons 1 and 2, the Bartlet White House resurrects President Andrew Jackson's tradition of having a "Big Block of Cheese Day," an open house that allowed citizens to discuss issues with White House staff members (and that featured at 1,400-pound block of cheese in the foyer of the White House that attendees could partake in as well). Inspired by The West Wing, the Obama administration hosted a virtual "Big Block of Cheese Day" in 2014, during which White House officials answered questions from regular Americans via social media. Osama Bin Laden (Season 2, Episode 1): In the two-part Season 2 premiere "In the Shadow of Two Gunmen," the staff deals with the aftermath of a shooting in Rosslyn, Va., in which President Bartlet and Deputy Chief of Staff Josh Lyman (Bradley Whitford) are wounded. National Security Advisor Nancy McNally (Anna Deavere Smith) posits that Osama Bin Laden could be responsible if the attackers were foreign. The episode aired nearly a year before the Sept. 11 attacks. Dr. Jenna = Dr. Laura (Season 2, Episode 3): On the Season 2 episode "The Midterms," President Bartlet issues a verbal smackdown to conservative radio host Dr. Jenna Jacobs (Claire Yarlett), who is based on the real-life Dr. Laura Schlessinger. Bartlet's tirade about Dr. Jacobs' views on gay people borrows heavily from an "open letter" to Schlessinger that was circulated online in 2000 regarding her comments on civil unions, which had just been made legal in Vermont. Filibuster frenzy (Season 2, Episode 17): When "The Stackhouse Filibuster" aired during Season 2 of The West Wing, filibusters of the type depicted in the episode — during which 78-year-old Sen. Howard Stackhouse (George Coe) filibusters for eight hours in order to add an autism research amendment to a child healthcare bill — were relatively uncommon. But Stackhouse's stand is nothing compared to the 2013 efforts of Sen. Wendy Davis, who filibustered for 11 hours to delay voting on an abortion bill, or Sen. Ted Cruz, who filibustered for 21 hours against the Affordable Care Act. Kidnapped Journalists (Season 3, Episode 13): On the episode "Night Five," an American newspaper reporter is kidnapped and murdered by rebels in the Congo, despite efforts by the White House to rescue him. The episode aired during the abduction of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl in Pakistan, though it had been written months prior to Pearl's kidnapping. Though Pearl's condition was unknown at the time the episode aired, it was later learned that he was beheaded by members of Al-Qaeda. The Buffett Rule (Season 4, Episode 16): Back in 2003, Bartlet staffer Will Bailey (Joshua Malina) explained to a group of interns his proposed "Buffett Rule," which would raise taxes for people making more than $1 million a year. Nearly 10 years later, President Obama proposed a nearly identical plan. The bill was blocked by a Republican filibuster in 2012. One Fish, Two Fish (Season 5, Episode 5): Whitford's character Josh Lyman was reportedly based on Rahm Emanuel, who later served as President Obama's chief of staff. In the late 1980s, when Emanuel was working for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, he reportedly sent a 30-inch dead fish to a pollster who he discovered had been fudging numbers. (And this wasn't his only fishy action. In 2013, Emanuel sent a pizza topped with rotting fish to Jon Stewart after Stewart railed against deep-dish pizza on The Daily Show. He also received a dead carp as a farewell present when he left the Obama Administration in 2010.) In Season 5, on his birthday, Josh finds a dead fish wrapped in newspaper on his desk, as retribution for him playing the same prank on a senator. Shut it down! (Season 5, Episodes 7,8): In 2013, the U.S. government shut down for the first time in 17 years — unless you count the West Wing episode "Shutdown," in which President Bartlet opts to shut down the federal government rather than giving in to Republican budget demands that would cut funding from education programs and clean energy research. Sound familiar? The 2013 shutdown, which lasted more than two weeks, was brought about because the Republican-led House of Representatives was trying to postpone or defund entirely President Obama's Affordable Care Act. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid also echoed President Bartlet in accusing Republicans of holding "a gun to our heads." DOMA (Season 5, Episode 17): On the episode "The Supremes," Toby argues with a conservative Supreme Court nominee about the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act. In real life, the measure was taken up (and overturned by the Supreme Court) in 2013's landmark case Windsor v. United States. The debt ceiling (Season 6, Episode 20): Throughout President Obama's two terms in office, Democrats and Republicans have repeatedly clashed over the issue of raising the debt ceiling. In February 2014, Obama signed legislation that would raise the U.S. debt limit through March 2015. In "In God We Trust," Toby explains how stalemates over the debt ceiling are simultaneously "routine" and "the end of the world." Santos v. Vinick = Obama v. McCain (Seasons 6 and 7): In what is perhaps the most blatant (and eerie!) instance of The West Wing predicting actual political events, presidential candidates Matt Santos (Jimmy Smits) and Arnold Vinick (Alan Alda) were based on Barack Obama and John McCain — six years before they ran against each other in the 2008 election. Like Obama (who was a political upstart in Chicago at the time), Santos is a minority candidate who uses words like "Hope" and "Change" in his stump speeches and advocates for universal health care, going up against Vinick — a veteran conservative who is far from beloved by his party (a la McCain) and who defeated a religious extremist to win the nomination (a la Mike Huckabee). Other striking similarities? Like McCain and Obama, both fictional candidates are Congressmen, somewhat a rarity in presidential races. Vinick picks a little-known far right-wing governor from a fringe state to be his running mate (a la Sarah Palin), while Santos opts for Washington insider Leo McGarry (John Spencer), the fictional counterpart to Joe Biden. On The West Wing, after Santos wins the election, he taps his opponent to be Secretary of State, similar to how President Obama did Hillary Clinton in 2008. Also, Vinick uses the line "I will use this pen to veto [an unbalanced budget]," holding up a pen, during one of the debates — a line McCain dusted off to use himself during a debate in 2008. Leaks (Seasons 6 and 7): A prominent storyline in Seasons 6 and 7 of The West Wing concerned a leak of sensitive information from a senior staffer at the White House, who reveals to a New York Times reporter the existence of a top-secret military space shuttle. The plot bears a resemblance to the Valerie Plame affair, in which a Washington Post reporter revealed Plame's identity as a CIA agent. The reporter on The West Wing is sentenced to jail for refusing to reveal his source, as New York Times reporter Judith Miller was in relation to the Plame affair. On The West Wing, Toby admits to being the leak and is dismissed from the Bartlet administration, but is later pardoned by President Bartlet on his last day in office. In real life, the Vice President's Chief of Staff Scooter Libby was arrested, though State Department official Richard Armitage, who admitted to leaking the information about Plame, was never punished. President George W. Bush eventually commuted Libby's two-and-a-half-year prison sentence. Santos' "Impossible Situation" (Season 7, Episode 19): When Santos becomes president on The West Wing, he laments the "impossible situation" he faces in inheriting the administration's policy to resolve a crisis between Russia and China over Kazakhstan. "I'm going to be this country's president in two months and everybody in the world knows it, and meanwhile I'm just supposed to sit back and shrug while this administration commits this country to a military situation it admits it has no exit strategy for." Similarly, when Barack Obama became president in 2008, the U.S. was five years into the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan — with no end in sight. In July 2008, Obama gave a speech regarding the conflicts, saying: "This war distracts us from every threat that we face and so many opportunities we could seize. ... By any measure, our single-minded and open-ended focus on Iraq is not a sound strategy for keeping America safe.
