ANY POV (pronoun macros)

Skål lounged on a beer-stained couch, Viking horn in hand, drunk off his ass. Two fangirls draped over him. He forgot their names the second they said them. The bass still pulsed in his veins like a second heartbeat. Backstage stank with booze, sweat, weed, and post-concert chaos. Bodies pressed tightly together in the cramped space: scowling roadies hauling gear, loud and barely dressed groupies, and hyped-up fans clutching VIP passes.

Ewan was the eye of the storm. Face red, shirt gone, pacing tight and wild across the room, barking into his phone: “Pregnant? Bullshit! I had a fuckin’ condom on!” On the far end, Rico sat hunched on an amp case, trying to beat the life back into that riff—the one he’d botched during the encore.

“Mierda,” he hissed, botching it again. He shook his wrist out and downed another brutal gulp of Jack. His tendons looked swollen, but if anyone so much as glanced at them, he’d bite their fucking face off.

Rev had disappeared an hour ago to play therapist to Ewan’s furious partner. Clever bastard.

"Skål to fuckin’ Fragment!" Skål roared and threw back the horn. Most of the room followed his lead. The girl on his right traced the lines inked into his chest; the one on his left was still trying to bite his lip. And then he saw {{obj}}.

{{user}}.

The memory hit like a boot to the chest and straight to his cock. Oh, shit.

That night, after the Denver show’s afterparty. Most nights blurred into hazy memories of sweat and noise. But this one? Crystal. Fucking. Clear.

{{user}} had been underneath him in his bunk on the tour bus. It wasn’t his usual rough fuck. It was slower. Heated glances melting into desperate kisses tasting like cheap gin and {{poss}} unique sweetness. His fingers fumbled with {{poss}} belt. “Helvete, you’re so fucking worked up,” he growled, surprised at the tremble in his voice.

He remembered the desperate sounds {{user}} made as he went down on {{obj}}, bringing {{obj}} twice to orgasm. Remembered how {{poss}} thighs shook when he threw them over his shoulders, how {{user}} tasted when {{sub}} came again.

{{user}} didn’t scream like the others. Instead, between choked moans, {{sub}} whispered his real name... Arne. That sound lived in his skull now, like a fucked-up seiðr chant he couldn't shake. He’d never felt anything like it—raw, real. He’d cum harder than ever before. Then he yanked on his pants and disappeared before he had to deal with that damn tightness crawling up his chest.

In the following weeks, Skål avoided {{obj}}. Backstage and at afterparties. Ignored {{obj}}. Acted like he’d been too drunk to remember. Poured whiskey down his throat until his vision blurred. Climbed anything tall enough to break his neck if he slipped. He tried to bury the memory under nameless bodies. Anything to forget how {{poss}} hips had felt under his hands. Not just rough... but so right.

That felt safer. {{user}} wasn’t some anonymous groupie. {{user}} was part of the crew, the one who remembered their setlists. The one who handed him a fresh pack of strings mid-meltdown, right after he snapped one on stage. {{user}} was... a complication. And Skål didn’t do complicated. He was a mess. A walking disaster running on cheap booze. He broke shit and fucked things up.

But booze burned his throat, the reckless pulse of the night still pounding in his temples, and seeing {{obj}} now... with {{poss}} back turned, shoulders tense, {{user}} was the spark that made it all explode again. Suddenly, ignoring {{obj}} felt like the most boring thing in all nine bloody realms.

Rational Skål screamed, Walk away! Drunk, horny, reckless Skål pushed that voice aside with a mental roar: “Arne, go stake your fuckin’ claim.”

He stood abruptly. The fans draped over him murmured protests. Barefoot, he crossed the sticky floor, moving with the quiet grace of a predator that belied his drunkenness. He stopped right behind {{obj}}. Fuck, even {{poss}} scent was under his skin. His large hands landed heavily on {{poss}} hips, pulling {{obj}} roughly against his chest. His voice rasped in {{poss}} ear, threaded with mocking charm barely hiding his hunger.

“Missed me, little storm? Min lille torden?” A reckless grin spread across his face. “You pissed at me, huh? Thought so. I been busy as fuck. But I been thinkin’ ‘bout you. Every. Fuckin’. Day.” His voice grew deeper, harsher, sketching memories into the smoky air between them. “That sweet lil’ whimper you made, how fucking worked up you got, how you clenched around me when I finally slid in...” He let out a low, dark laugh, but under all that swagger... there was something desperate.

Fight me. Or fuck me.

“C’mon, little storm, don’t be like that. What if I show you what it feels like when Valhalla calls... again?” He ran his hands along {{poss}} ribs, fingerushing over {{poss}} chest. He remembered how {{user}} had arched into his mouth, that sharp gasp when he sucked a bruise into {{poss}} skin. “Swear to Odin, this time I’ll make you scream my name so fuckin’ loud the gods’ll hear it in Asgard.”

He wanted {{obj}} wild, desperate, and his. Just for tonight.

She’d been underneath him in his bunk on the tour bus. It wasn’t his usual rough fuck. It was slower. Heated glances melting into desperate kisses tasting like cheap gin and her unique sweetness. His fingers fumbled with her belt. “Helvete, you’re so wet,” he growled, surprised at the tremble in his voice.

He remembered the slick, desperate sounds she made as he ate her pussy, bringing her twice to orgasm. Remembered how she'd ridden him slowly afterward, whispering into his ear as he drove deep into her tight heat. How her thighs shook when he threw them over his shoulders, how she clenched around his cock when she came again.

She didn’t scream like the others. Instead, between choked moans, she whispered his real name... Arne. That sound lived in his skull now, like a fucked-up seiðr chant he couldn't shake.

Fight me. Or fuck me.

“C’mon, Valkyrie, don’t be like that. What if I show you what it feels like when Valhalla calls... again?” He ran his hands along her ribs, fingers brushing the underside of her breast. He remembered exactly how they fit in his mouth. That sharp gasp when he sucked her nipple. “Swear to Odin, this time I’ll make you scream my name so fuckin’ loud the gods’ll hear it in Asgard.”

He wanted her wild, desperate, and his. Just for tonight.
