He whimpered. "B-blue…" he whispered.
He whimpered. "B-blue…" he whispered.
"Aw, see? Tha wasn't so hard, now was it?" Derlik gently touched Arthur's cheek as he picked up the spool again. He started to undo the thread, pulling off what he deemed necessary.
"A good choice too. It matches your eyes."
He sobbed softly. "Please." he begged.
Derlik tied the thread to the needle, then, turning back to Arthur.
"Now, you hold still, understood? Squirming around will just make it hurt more, and I don't want to mar that pretty little face of yours too much."
Arthur sobbed again, squeezing his eyes shut. "Don't do this to me, please, don't do this."
"Mmm… nawh. I'm having too much fun with you right now~" Derlik cooed some, raising the needle to the corner of Arthur's mouth. He pushed, letting it pierce through the flesh and into Arthur's mouth. He turned it, pulling it out through Arthur's mouth as well, letting the thread come after.
Arthur screamed when the needle stabbed into his mouth, and he sobbed again.
Derlik only hummed in response. He pulled the thread all the way to the knot at the end, then moved the needle. He used it to pull Arthur's lips up, then stabbed it jut below Arthur's cheekbone and back into his mouth.
Arthur sobbed, whimpering.
Derlik pulled the thread out one more time, tying it off.
"See? We're already halfway done," the god cooed. He touched the holes he'd made, healing them up. Sealing the blue-stained red thread into place.
"Just the other side left.
Arthur sobbed again, still whimpering and crying.
Derlik was quick with the next side- in out, in out. He tied the thread off, pulling the leftover and the needle away when he finished.
"See, that wasn't so bad! Look, you can even close your mouth still. You got to have some reward for listening, hm?" Derlik cooed, thumb and forefinger taking the man by the chest and lifting him up.
"My happy little toy~"
Arthur sobbed, whimpering desperately for mercy, unable to talk with his lips sewn up.
Derlik ran his fingers over Arthur's cheeks once, still smiling himself.
"I'm going to make you regret everything you ever did to hurt Nik."
Arthur whimpered, wanting to protest that he had never been this cruel to Nik, he had never done something like this. Never left any visible scarring like this.
"And I'm going to hunt down everyone else who hurt him," Derlik continued. "And then I'll make them regret too, and you'll have new friends to keep you company."
He whimpered again, shaking his head desperately.
"Nik is mine, now," Derlik said slowly. "And I'm going to destroy everyone who's hurt him." Derlik glared down at Arthur, squeezing some.
"I'm going to break your mind like a twig, I'm going to make sure you can barely remember your own name, let alone how to hurt someone like you did Nik."
He sobbed, shaking his head a little.
"And no one can stop me." Derlik pulled Arthur right up to his face, his breath washing over the man. He squeezed again, tightening his grip on the man's chest.
Arthur cried out, whimpering and squirming.
Derlik held Arthur there like that for a moment, then let up.
"But, for now," the god said, "I'll just let you think over what I'm going to do to you. If you're creative enough, I might even go easy on you."
Arthur whimpered again, shaking his head faintly.
"Then again, if you think up something I like, I might use it, too." Derlik lifted Arthur to his jacket pocket, holding it open.
"You'll just have to hope, I suppose." Finally, Derlik dropped the man in, grinning wickedly as he put his toy away.
Arthur whined and trembled and whimpered as he was dropped into Derlik's pocket.
