21 - [Katekiyo Hitman Reborn] Crash Tragic
Rating: Gen.
Fandom: Katekiyo Hitman Reborn
Characters: Xanxus, Squalo, a Bel appearance
Notes: Seven 1-sentence drabbles. Mostly on Xanxus/Squalo, but there's a tiny appearance by Belphegor. Genres are usually crack. We can call this set "a day in the life of Varia".
01.
In between chewing and blowing pink bubblegum underneath summer skies, Squalo snarls a half-hidden confession from his throat: I love you, I'll follow you, why don't you marry me already and Xanxus, never one for politeness, whispers God, shut up through the tiny spaces between his clenched hand as it makes its swift way towards Squalo's jaw.
02.
Bullets shot from trippy acid-green guns contains red and yellow and orange rage, fiery rage reflected in his eyes and on the grin on his face and while Xanxus was busy trying to kill people Squalo just stands there stupidly and, enthralled, watches him kill with perfect accuracy: there is nothing that separates him from him and in touching Xanxus he burns into air.
03.
This is as honest as Xanxus will get: "I will live for you," he says, "but I won't die for you" -- and Squalo has to take the time and wonder whether he said that because he was drunk and he's just had a marathon of Rambo videos, or if he actually meant it.
04.
Beethoven's ninth was playing in Xanxus' room and everyone knows that the room is off limits to strangers when that happens, Xanxus says that he's hard at work and everyone who so much as passes around his door and makes a sound dies -- in reality, he's actually playing Guitar Hero and he's hiding it from Squalo, who has been screaming murder for him and his console for the past few hours because he hasn't exactly done any of the paperwork that he was supposed to do.
05.
He'd had to put Squalo in isolation, once, when he found out that he was trying to rig the football games so that Italy would win -- sports weren't exactly his thing, so he doesn't care for it one bit; but when Squalo retaliated with hours upon hours of lectures on "WHERE IS YOUR FUCKING PRIIIIIIIIIDE, BOSS" he nearly made him hand in his letter of resignation.
06.
Ten years in the future, Xanxus nearly had a heart attack when the recent check-up from the family doctor had brought to his attention that his blood pressure was too high, and a new diet was to be implemented to save his heart; Squalo took this as a good sign and ordered new dishes to be served for him, and he doesn't care whatever the god damned Boss says, he's still to going to touch that plate of brussels sprouts.
07.
Most people don't believe Belphegor when he tells them that Varia does have vacation time and occasionally (more gasps echo here) they go karaoke like regular human beings -- except (and this he neglects to mention) for the fact that nobody actually sings and they just end up sitting on the couches and playing cards, because Xanxus doesn't want to hear any of them open their mouths, especially Squalo's; nobody dares to sing Rick Astley.
