Will shivers. The icy winds of the ruins blow through. It sweeps through the miles of magla crystals surrounding the area and makes him sneeze.
Will and his friends stand in front of the mansion. It’s broken and torn. Blood chilling screeches from inside could be heard. It was shrill and avian.
They suspect that there's a magla crystal inside the mansion that's affecting the nearby village. Bird-like humans nesting and flying towards the village to hunt the people living there. So Will took up the mission to stop it.
They had some time before they headed to Virga Island so he took up a quest. Junah was new with them and so were the Magnus brothers.
As they take a step on the stairs leading up to the mansion the stone stairs crumble and Strohl struggles to walk in a stable manner. He waves his arm around trying to ground himself but he instead stumbles and falls on Will. Luckily for the both of them Will was able to stop them from falling down the flight of stairs. He apologizes to Will before angrily critiquing the aged building. The mansion belonged to an ancient powerful mage that was long dead. If it wasn’t for the dangerous buildings they had to be careful around, the mansion itself was imbued with dangerous magic.
As they venture in, the sound of humans echoed and resounded in the tight hallways. They were somewhere further in the mansion. Strohl gripped his sword. He could never be too prepared for a fight. The humans could sneak up on them at any time.
The hallways were so tight that the team had trouble moving forward. They were bumping shoulders and shoving each other. Groups of them spilled into the rooms along the way but when they tried to gather an invisible wall blocked them. Will punched the wall but was pushed back. There was an impenetrable magic barrier. Will was stuck in another room with Strohl, everyone else was in another room facing them.
“We’ll meet up again, yeah?” Basilio asked. He was stuck in a room with Fidelio.
“Let’s regroup later! Keep going ahead!” Will said affirmatively.
Will called out to the rest of the team and told them to group up later. For now they just had to go deeper into the mansion and hopefully by then they would safely regroup and fight the humans.
Strohl was glad Will was with him, Will was level headed and always had a courageous heart when facing any problem. Will too was happy to be with Strohl. He could always rely on him and he always had his back. Strohl could always land good damage on their enemies.
When they looked further around they found themselves in a research room. It was full of books. There was a comically large abacus on display as well. The owner must’ve had plentiful funding.
There were stacks and stacks of books as far as the eyes could see. All of which were moldy and ripping. Will could smell it from a distance but he liked the smell of books. There was dust everywhere.
Strohl looked around at the glass vials. Whoever lived here was an alchemist. He lifted a glass jar up for a better view. Something inside blinked and stared back at him.
He drops the jar with a yelp. It shatters and the contents hits and breaks the other vials. Liquids splash everywhere.
Will and Strohl become drenched in unknown contents. It reeked and reminded them of the time they exited the behind of a human.
Will starts shivering. He sneezes. It’s like a cold chill has taken over his entire body.
”It’s cold in here.” Will said.
Strohl looked at him with shock.
”What do you mean? It’s burning.”
Strohl tugs at his collar and slips off his coat. He then starts unbuttoning his shirt. His face was reddening and drenched in sweat.
Will and Strohl looked at each other with utter confusion. They both looked around the room for the cause and concluded it was the vials spilling its content that made their body temperature like this. The stains on their clothes said such.
Will shivers so much it quakes his whole body. He sits on the floor rubbing his arms together and trying to breathe warm air into his hands. Strohl felt bad he couldn't do anything. He was stuck standing and leaning over to grip the table. He didn’t want any one of his limbs to touch his body, he was burning up. He could see the spot his hands touch the table and become wet from his sweat.
“S-S-Strohl…” Will called out. His voice sounded frail. Like it was glass that could be easily broken.
His breathing became more erratic. Strohl could hear Will’s lungs fighting for its life.
With panic Strohl began looking for a cure. He stared at the vials. All of them looked poisonous. Not a single one looked natural. They were all colors he’d never seen before.
Then his eyes lay upon a book. There had to be some sort of information in it that could help them.
He flips through the pages. He had instant relief to find they were in his language instead of some ancient text. He flipped through until he found a spell matching the image of the contents spilled on them.
Strohl gasped. It made Will look at him in hope.
”Did y-you find it?” Will asked.
Strohl struggled to answer him. He shook his head as if trying to shake water out of his head and then reread the page twice over.
Will grabbed onto Strohl’s pants leg. It was strangely warm. Will badly need warmth. He clung onto Strohl.
”Strohl!” He shouted.
When Strohl looked back his face was beyond red.
”The cure is sex…” Strohl said like he was scared of the word.
Will’s eyes widened to the size of dinner plates.
Will asked him if there were any other options. Strohl looked around but couldn’t find one.
They both knew they liked each other, they’ve exchanged kisses before but never did anything further than that. They both had been hoping for this, just not when they have to have sex or die.
Will’s breathing started slowing down. He collapsed onto the floor.
Strohl panicked. He grabbed onto Will and pulled him into a hug. He was absolutely freezing. It felt like Strohl was holding a sack of cold beans. He worried over this development but he couldn’t help but appreciate how nice Will’s cold body felt on his own hot body.
“Will! Will!” He called out.
Will whined.
”So warm…” He muttered.
Time was running out.
Strohl’s heart beating faster. The heat was getting to him. It was like he was being burned alive from the inside. His head was reeling and the ground felt unstable. His vision was blurring. His head was boiling.
Will and him gave each other a look. Like they were asking each other if they were in reality. Then they looked around.
No one else was in the room. It felt ok that they could do this. No one had to know.
Strohl clawed at his clothes. First tossing his jacket over Will’s shoulders and then threw the rest onto the floor. He was shirtless and drenched in sweat. Will enjoyed looking at Strohl’s naked body.
Will held his arms up like he wanted a hug and wrapped his arms around Strohl. He clung to him for dear life. It felt like instant relief for Strohl. Like an icepack was placed on a wound for comfort.
They cuddle and hug and try to touch every spot of each other’s bodies.
Will rubs his face into Strohl’s chest. He felt good. He felt warm inside. His friendship with Strohl was becoming more physical. He enjoyed Strohl’s embrace and he wanted more of him. He was like a warm blanket to him.
Will undid his pants. It felt cold when his body met the air but the moment Strohl grabbed his bare ass he felt better. Strohl’s hands were warm and welcomed.
This was their first time touching each other like this. Both Strohl and Will couldn’t tell if their hearts were beating from the pain they felt or if it was how excited they both were.
Strohl kneaded Will’s ass. They were closer than ever before. The line between their friendship was broken. They were something other than friends now.
Will then tells Strohl to touch him further. Grabbing Strohl’s hand and guiding it to his cock. Strohl instead dives head in and wraps his lips around it. It makes Will gasp in shock. He liked that about Strohl, he knew if he asked Strohl to jump, he’d respond with “how high”. He was never afraid to hear what Will said. Even if was ever daring he listened.
Strohl sucks Will’s cock like a popsicle. He was slobbery with it. He dragged his tongue up and down going over his balls and to the tip and up and down all over again. Strohl's mouth felt refreshed. Like everything relaxed him. His cold hard cock was everything Strohl needed.
Will grabbed onto Strohl’s hair for stability. He could feel his whole body start to become warmer but it wasn’t enough to keep the tremors away.
He pats at Strohl demanding they hug. Strohl stops what he does and wipes his mouth on his arm before climbing on top of Will and holds him tightly. They snuggle each other until they decide to go all in.
Will rubs his ass against Strohl’s cock. The sensation takes Strohl’s breath away. Strohl quickly spits into his palm and rubs Will’s hole. He does it again with more fervor until he could put his finger inside of Will.
Will shuttered. He feels himself stretch around Strohl’s finger. He moans. Will already feels heady. He craves him. He was excited for this. It may be inappropriate to be excited in a life or death situation but he is happy he is with Strohl. Dangerous situation or not, Strohl was his number one.
Strohl then spits onto his own hand and puts his hand on his own cock.
Once they were all lubed up with saliva and the precum peaking out Strohl alines himself with Will. He easily inches into Will with a blissful sigh. It felt like a bucket of cold water washed down his body.
He rocks his hips against Will. The fullness Will felt made him whine. His voice was the cutest thing Strohl had ever laid his ears on. He was glad no one else was around. He didn’t want anyone to hear what their captain sounded like in such a vulnerable state. It was exclusive to him only. He wanted to be the one to see Will in every situation. Through thick and thin and this included when Will is needing him. Will needed him inside of him to stay warm and he was more than happy to give him that.
Will’s whole body was being rocked and the pressure of Strohl’s cock sliding in and out of his hole made Will’s breath quicken. He was breathing like he was running. He grasped onto Strohl and called out his name in his ear.
“Strohl! Strohl!”
His voice was wavering. It was thin like the wind. Will could barely keep his mind intact. It made Strohl all the more over him. He pushed his cock deeper into Will. It made him claw at his back and cling onto him.
Their bodies were flush against each other. They no longer felt the pain of the cold or the heat. Strohl was cooled by Will and Will was warmed by Strohl. Their body temperatures harmonized with each other.
Strohl keeps pounding into Will’s hole until he reaches his climax. He comes inside and holds Will as tightly as possible like he was scared to let go.
Strohl’s body fully cools down. He felt so much relief. He notices Will closing in on his own climax and reaches down to Will’s cock and rubs it.
Will sighs as his warm hands grasp his cock. As Strohl tugs on it Will pushes into his hand for more friction. The orgasm washes over Will and he is overwhelmed with senses all over his body. Will comes onto Strohl’s bare stomach and lies like he was boneless. He was no longer cold.
They both lay together breathing heavily. Strohl doesn’t pull out. He lies tired on top of Will. Will rubs his arms against Strohl’s back and hugs him dearly. They stared at each other catching their breaths. It felt like they just ran a mile together. It was hard to believe what they just did.
Will touched their foreheads together.
“Let’s do this again, but not in a dingy place like this” Will said confidently.
Strohl agreed. He hated being stuck in this disgusting mansion but he was glad he could fully touch his beloved friend.
They cleaned themselves as best they could with the limited resources around them before getting dressed. They wandered in the maze of the mansion before regrouping with the rest of their friends.
“There you guys are!” Will exclaimed happily.
“Was everything alright on your end?” Strohl asked.
It seemed like everyone got in their own kind of mess.
Junah, as confident as she was, started tugging at her hair nervously.
Hulkenberg kept cutting herself off when she tried to explain her situation.
Heismay was covered in bark dust and broken glass. He had to fight off a hoard of monsters.
All Fidelio did was coughed into his hand while Basilio anxiously scratched his head. The brothers were the most nervous.
Fidelio got angry and told Will to hurry up and deal with their human problem.
The team went deeper into the mansion and aimed to stop the flying human and bring the village back their peace.
Will looked at Strohl as they ran towards the human. He gave him a trusting smile that invigorated Strohl.
After this was done, the newly decided boyfriends would spend more time together.
