'this is by far the worse lose of control I've had, to show such unsureness.' for a moment he wondered what that said about him but noped those thoughts and focused more on helping flow recover from the night. she definitely needed fuel and fluids, probably morning after tea when she got out of the hot bath she was soaking in. thankfully the hotel had room service, grabbing the phone from the bedside table which was filled with lube and condoms he probably should have used. calling a smorgasbord of food and drinks plus some after morning tea.
when Flow left the bathroom wrapped in a robe, that looked really soft and sam kind of wanted, she got the tea immediately. "what's this?" she asked looking at the mug sam handed her taking a sipe before adding some milk.
"morning after tea", said sam before inhaling a few donuts and a glass of explosive orange juice.
"I'm on birth control, a few kinds" she didn't stop drinking the tea.
"Just trust me you won't want my children so it best no to take any risk." it's why he ordered the strongest tea, mindless he poped a few nuts into his mouth.
"What's wrong with your children?... you don't have any already right?" because with sam you never fucking know.
"When I was around maybe twelve, I found out that the power of an ability user affected their children. now I didn't want children but like all children was incredibly curious so a threatened a seer to see what would happen to my hypothetical children. let just say they'll bring a whole new meaning to demon children." flow opened his mouth to ask before deciding that he didn't want the details, a very good idea.
'When did he change', poping some sky nuts into his mouth. they ate in silence with their own thoughts sam thinking about his goal he could work after he helped flow recover, Flow was thinking if he would survive charging sam for his services. eventual the shapeshifter decides to chance its body primed to change and run." alright how much?"
"58 credits," sam handed over the money plus more after counting before returning to his food. "okay that went smoother than I thought! also you tipped me way too much!"
"you were going to get paid whether you liked it or not, second the tips hush money I was as calm and collected as ever last night." his tone clued him in on the threat. flow kept the money he wouldn't have said anything anyway, he was a decent enough person not to tell about a moment of vulnerability wouldn't be the first time with a customer. definitely a first with... was sam a friend?
'i never thought on this matter have I?' flow's relation with sam wasn't much they got along because they knew a lot about the world more than an average person for how old they looked, flow found it endlessly funny that sam was unaware of his real age. they worked together pretty well, it was a smooth thing but they didn't share any personal details and that was required for friends with Flow." are we friend?" he decided to ask straight out.
"no, but I see no reason why we couldn't be" sam reponed in kind. Flow was glad he was honest but still changed the topic by turning on the news. apparently, a giant plant was attacking a club, and Sam had something to do with it seeing the way he cursed. when flow asked," I mutated a plant and completely forgot about pollination!" flow had the guts to laugh at him getting bagel to the face.
"well this is something else" Cora commented as she crossed the police tape. the rose was currently wrapped around a small skyscraper. it would have been set on fire if not for the fact it had hostages and she had called ahead." where the fuck is sam?"
"speak and I appear" landing beside his mother he looked over the giant rose.' when was the last time I dealt with a giant-sized something.' he shook off the train of thought he could reminisce later right now he had to tame a monster plant. "shouldn't be too hard" especially with his fully matured lust core he had to practice with it anyway. grabbing hold of it he felt the masculine and feminine energy fill him. opening his eye he noted that he had transformed,' i gotta find the control soon.' to make this quick sam ignored his mother for the time and took off into the sky stopping in front of the main rosebud.
it took a second for the rose to notice his presence and half that to start cowering, "well this is surprising but why?" he had started threatening.
'in this form, it recognizes you as it lord. I can analyze this form for you and discover its power.' sam scratched his chin in thought before asking the helper to do so but not tell him the results. 'very well my lord!'
"now then you ginormous rose, free the humans and shrink down!" the plant obey immediately dropping humans from the duplicate bulbs completely nude. thankfully they were caught before falling more than a couple of stories, after making sure that they were safe sam turned to the shrinking plant. it became small enough to be held by a child when sam grabbed it taking off away from the screen, he needed away from all the eyes on him.
and after circling the area making triple sure that no one was following him sam returned to his mother's side. she was talking to the detective he beat up a bit back, sam wasn't nervous there wasn't a mortal method to recognize him out of that suit.' what's that smell,' it was familiar and it was coming from the detective.' it's not the cigarette, it came from something fun, something of mine.' as he tried to remember the source of the sent his mother and the detective talked about where the plant came from.
"pollination", answered the question he had been asked." we should probably talk to the bee association. don't more of them popping up."
"why was this thought about before?" the detective asked a good question.
"simply because it's never been a problem before, everywhere I messed with nature before the bee action was working or had already been informed of the risk. I wonder what the nectar will do to there honey?" and sam was no longer paying them attention thinking about the possibilities of what he could evolve with his lust power. a comment from the detective drew sam back in, apparently, you were supposed to register some group if you planned to experiment so things did get to this point. most of the time. 'learn something new every day I guess,' he had to inform the detective that the rose wasn't trying to kill anyone.
"then what was it trying to do?"
"tentacle porn!" both the adults were taken back and impressed how he said that face unchanging.
"why?, no I don't want to know just go register your experiments." with that he handed Cora a card and headed off.
"you know not wanting to know was probably a good choice!" sam commented as the two of them left the scene. Cora wasn't sure she agreed but it didn't make a difference if the man knew or not, I mean what were the chance he would get involved with them again. if sam heard these thought's he would warn her, you should never tempt the universe it loved to answer. what did that say about it creature the source?
"so what should we do with this?" sam asked as they got in the car. core turned to him after starting the vehicle to see him holding out the rose that had wrapped its stem around his arm." I guess we put it in the garden, then we fill out this paperwork for out experiment." the moment she mentions paperwork sam wondered if he could get out of this without trying too hard. he could feel it in his gut that it was going to be very different from what he filled out for the warfare league, which he had a fight for soon.
"what the paperwork looks like?" his mother didn't answer "what kind of paperwork?!"
"science-based!" it was only her reflexes that kept sam from jumping out of the car." stop being so dramatic!"
"never, "Sam replied as he put his seat belt back on." but don't think I'll be of any help for that paperwork."
"I know I've seen your sciences grades. on that note you should study more" sam just gave her a look they've had that conversation many times but nothing really changes, sam doesn't care for science and it didn't care for him.
"well, I do think you'll be of help, you may not scientifically understand things but you understand things your way and your father is a good translator. I'm sure we can figure something out!"
they could not, turns out they had to figure out the since behind lust first. and all sam could say was that it was the desire of the flesh, it was mixed things the desire to reproduced, the desire for pleasure, the desire for another. among more things. the fact he had to explain the fact he fed pure lust into seed was a tough conversation for sam.
"I don't even know where to begin in this! I sorta understand what sam is saying but there's no scientific equal that I know of." Natale said leaning back in his chair. the vegal family currently gathered around the kitchen table eating finishing up dinner as they tried to fill out the paperwork. "maybe I'm looking at this the long way... take a step back and think."
sam chewed on his fake beef watching his father think,' it times like these that you see the intelligence he has. he going to go nut when he gets the gems, I hope a see him soon afterward?!"
"I have it, hormones! signaling molecules in multicellular organisms!" okay sam got half that but the parent understood that very well. the rapid conversation they had made sam wish he could do science, but he lacked the... something. it was probably because of how he lived his life before the couple before him. daniel shared a science class with sam more than once and he said that sam's expression was one of disbelief during class.
how could someone not believe in science?
"well, I think we got it! in a sense," Natale started explained it to sam but it was clear from the look on sam's face that it was literally going in one ear and out the other. "well you aren't listing, so can you describe the process how you mutate things?"
"give the seed power infused with the desire to change," it took three tries before sam gave an explanation that would work for the paperwork. thankfully that was the last thing they needed sam for, so he left heading into the back yard to work on the statue this time with a diminutive amount of demon power in his nails. he was much more used to this so he carved the stone a lot easier. it didn't take long for him to get a wind done and stop there for the day after covering the statue he heads back inside and prepared for a bath.
"that slipped my mind," he held his empty bottle of holy water. treating the symptoms of his was difficult but holy water worked on the first three on varying degrees." I wonder how it will affect my lust/incubus form?" but for now he put the empty bottle on the bathroom counter while he soaked in the bath ridding himself of the aches that came from last night activities. *SLASH* 'I can't believe I did all that!' he kind of wanted to stay under the water forever, and he could he spent some time living on the seafloor.
he remembered the time, living entirely on sea plants, playing with baby whales. it was nice.
"BUAGH ", in his reminisce he totally to go up for air until his lungs screamed at him. leaning against the tube he reheats the water before subbing up. clean he got out and dried off he dressed as he heads back to his room," so how are you two doing?"
"We're doing fine master!" spoke two horror movie-worthy twins kids. their true form was the mimic slimes who made crafted their own forms after many nights of analysis. the reason there were horror movie worth was that they were little a cluster fuck of stuff. one leg was plant matter and the other was inside out and that was don't get sam started on their faces. none of this other him but he knew others" would have a fucking heart attack them in a dark alley or a bright day.
"Good! do you do what I asked?" the twine nodded reporting their actions to sam." good have you prepared battle modes?"
"yes, mater we have prepared for battle!" he nodded before informing them that the beast was preparing to attack him." we will fight for you and teach the beast a lesson!" he smiled and offered them some sugar cubes. it was interesting to learn the slimes food was similar to sugar." sam who the fuck are you talking to?!" ops he didn't close the door and that meant the entire house heard that conversation.
the sound spread through the house very well due to the enchanted paint they used. it was another thing that made sam feel safer when he first moved in, if someone attacked him everyone would hear as long as the door was open. today it alerted his parent that he was preparing to be attacked. that was why he was sitting in front of his parent explaining the fact he knew he was going to be attacked.
"right now it just gathering its forces and I plan to do the same!"
"When were you planning to tell us?" Cora asked even though she could already guess.
"at the last minute"
"so we wouldn't have the time to prepare" for a moment sam pauses then explained that he meant last minute of his operation, not the beast was attacking at this moment last minute. "context clues boy, context clues," was all Cora said before asking what could they help with. for a moment he didn't say anything, "I need help finding my sword."
