Esca/Marcus, AU, dark(ish)!Esca anonymous July 21 2011, 21:25:05 UTC
Ok, I see it as a fantasy AU, but it can be easily translated to suit any other genre. Also, long prompt is long.

Esca has been trained to be a fighter/killer/torturer since he was a little kid. He obeys orders without hesitation, never asks any questions. He is, for the lack of a better word, owned by some ruthless emperor/leader/king/military commander.

Then Marcus's army/squad invades the place where Esca lives and kills his master. Esca tries to kill himself, following the rules that were instilled in him, but Marcus stops him and tries to convince him that now he's free. Esca is confused, it's not like he really knows how to make any decisions for himself or even consider the ideas of "freedom" or, let's say, "future".

Marcus is, of course, afraid of Esca, but he's also on some level aware that deep down he's a brainwashed kid with almost no social skills, no matter how smart or skilled he is.

Esca decides that from now on Marcus will be his new master and follows him. Marcus can't really do anything to stop him from doing that, short of killing him.

The problem is that Esca's default reaction to any confusing/threatening situation is violence, and the only thing that keeps him in check are Marcus's orders (no matter how reluctant Marcus is to give them).

tl;dr - Esca is a killing machine and listens only to Marcus, reluctant to give orders.

Yeah, and all the other officers would be like "Keep your dog on a leash, Marcus!" and Esca would growl at people threatening/offending him :D
