“Andre?” A hushed voice echoed throughout the room, breaking the silence that consumed the icy night. The door creaks open slowly to reveal a tall dark figure; cautiously stepping inside the dimly lit room.
Assimilation’s gaze scanned the room and blinked upon the sight of cyan strands of hair. Their eye trailed along the sleeping figure all sprawled over his bed. A single torch illuminated the entirety of the dark room and the both of them. Assimilation felt washed with a sense of relief and comfort; realizing it was Andre. Andre’s face radiated underneath the torch’s glow, eyelashes fluttered close, a cute pout where a few snores escaped from. A glint of what seemed to be from diamonds caught their attention; they directed their head towards a pickaxe recklessly thrown aside. ‘Hm, Andre is probably exhausted from the mining session earlier— hah, I’m glad he’s resting now though.’ Assimilation guessed regarding Andre’s current condition.
The taller figure felt something pull on their heart strings; it felt oddly comforting. Andre’s face brought.. peace. As if he was frolicking in the fields of spring, the cool wind grazing against his skin while the sun kissed his hair. Warmth engulfed their chest, manifesting into a beating heart glowing in a red hue. Clicking the door behind them closed before approaching the bed, floorboards creaking under their weight.
Assimilation felt something pulling on their heart, it felt comforting. Andre looked so.. peaceful. It brought a warm feeling inside their chest, into their visible glowing beating red heart. They closed the door behind them and approached the bed, the wooden floors creaking underneath them. Assimilation sat on the edge of the bed cautiously, making sure not to wake up the other.
The two had recently built their own little place, it was positioned in a forest with a small mining shack nearby. They built their base not too far from Collin’s. Collin was.. kind of alright with the two living on the same server as him. (It’s not like he’s new to this anyways, he already has other entities living in the same server. The only difference the two had from the other entities is that they’re not constantly out on their way to kill him…)
(Still a bunch of nuisance anyways. Collin still hasn’t forgiven Andre for nearly emptying his chest- when is Andre going to return his shit back anyways?!)
At first, they stayed over at his base, which irritated Collin even more. So what did Collin do to solve this problem? He decided he had enough and expressed his annoyance towards the two for hogging everything. He pushed them both to go fuck off and build their own base (And if they ever start fucking, at least he won’t be there to witness it).
Andre laid still on the blue bedsheets, unaware of Assimilation’s presence looming over him as he silently slept.
Did Andre have some kind of ‘sleeping switch’ somewhere that Assimilation was not aware of? Or does he just go to sleep by himself without any commands? Andre's AI body sure is interesting. Assimilation thinks they haven’t seen Andre sleeping before.. (If he does have some kind of switch, maybe Andre could show it to Assimilation. They needed to know Andre from head to toe).
Assimilation’s sharp claws slowly reached towards the sleeping individual, carefully placing their hand on his hair. After a while, those same claws moved down to Andre’s cheeks, cupping it. They made sure not to cause a single scratch on him. Assimilation’s breath hitched as they felt Andre’s soft, metal skin beneath their palms. Andre was cold compared to them.
They couldn’t get enough of it. They wanted more.
As they rubbed their thumb against his metal cheek, a random thought started creeping up.. Andre sure has all sorts of mechanical structures and wires inside him. They wondered: what does it feel like? What was it like to be.. inside Andre? Obviously this type of touch alone wasn’t enough to fill their gnawing hunger towards him. It wasn’t enough to make them feel satisfied. In fact, They wanted something more.. drastic. They needed him.
The thought of having their claws inside him, pulling and rearranging each of his wires came to mind. Would Andre cry out in pleasure? Would he be panting as he begged Assimilation for more? Assimilation shivered at that thought.
They wanted to swallow him whole, they wanted to be one with him. To bring them closer than ever.
Assimilation suddenly snapped from these wretched thoughts, huffing and shaking their head. No. It was inappropriate and beyond twisted..
Their hand still stayed on Andre’s, admiring his sleeping face. Andre would enjoy it. Assimilation isn’t stupid, they know Andre. They’ve seen the long stares Andre gives to them when he thinks they weren’t looking. They could see it so clearly. Guilt and shame slowly crept up. Yet, those thoughts still lingered like a parasite. Assimilation began to feel flustered.
But at the same time it felt.. right. It felt so right to see Andre like this, underneath them. No more of those speedruns, it was beyond exhausting to convince Andre to stop. The relief they felt when Andre agreed to just.. stop all of this at once. Now they were both safe, away from them.
Assimilation froze when they heard Andre letting out a tiny groan, before his eyes flickered open. His deep blue eyes took a while to register who was in front of him in this dimly lit setting before blinking. Surely enough, it was just Assimilation who was the one in front of him. Assimilation noticed Andre’s eyes always had glowed a little bit while in the dark.
<AndreW2002> assim?
Assimilation pulled their hand away from him with a wide eye.
“Andre, I did not mean to disturb your sleep-“ Assimilation frantically started. However, their words were put into a halt as Andre sluggishly spread his arms wide open.
<AndreW2002> come join
Assimilation hesitated, their single eye slowly moving from Andre’s arms towards his face. Andre’s eyes stayed onto theirs. Assimilation’s hand that was once touching Andre’s face began to grip at the bed sheets.
“Are you sure, Andre?” Assimilation asked, wanting to make sure if the other was alright with this. If he was alright with them cuddling. (It was hilarious, really. They were just thinking of having their claws deep inside Andre. The audacity of them to act gentle after thinking of such things)
<AndreW2002> ye
Andre gave the entity a tired nod, arms spreading more to show them that it was alright for them to do so.
Assimilation paused a little bit before nodding. There it was again, a warm feeling inside their chest. They carefully settled themself on the bed beside him and hugged Andre, they were much larger than Andre so their entire form covered his. Their heart pounding against their ribcage like a drum. One of their claws cradling his head delicately and the other rested on his back, rubbing slightly as if to lure him back to sleep.
In Assimilation’s arms, Andre looked so small.
<AndreW2002> warm
“Really, Andre? Do you think so?” Assimilation hummed, blinking down at him. Andre nodded, burying his face deeper on them. He felt comfortable. He listened to the beating heart on their chest, while a low whirring sound could be heard from his own.
“I’m glad, Andre.” Assimilation squeezed their arms around him tighter, as if afraid that he’d slip away from their grasp once again. They closed their single eye and nuzzled where their cheek was supposed to be on against the top of his head.
Assimilation purred in delight, feeling incredibly snug being against Andre.
Sleep slowly took over. Andre stayed still in the comfort of Assimilation’s arms. Assimilation could still hear the quiet whirr of his system against their body. An entity like Assimilation didn’t need any sleep, but for the sake of being this close to Andre.. Then they’ll have to entertain the idea.
Assimilation made sure to cherish this moment forever, and Andre did too. They both were fine like this. Both in each other’s arms. Forever and for all eternity inside their humble abode.
In the quiet night where they were away from everyone else, the two lovers slept together peacefully.
