Follow up to the last comic, where Powder gets Sevika to hand Silco a Pocky every time he demands a smoke, because he wants to quit but also is weak and stressed. Shout out to the person who said he'd probably like the almond ones. Had to incorporate that. 😁 part of my #sugarisnotacondiment AU ❤️

Vander is returning with some specialty booze he picked up, some chocolates and flowers for Silco and something special, Blue dried flowers that make blue tea. The color changes when citrus juice is added. It's a surprise.

Vander just walked them over to Benzos since it's very close and since Vander didn't mind. He picked Violet up on his shoulders and Powder up on his arm. Most folks were used to seeing Vander absolutely showing off.

He lets go with a sigh. "Fine fine"

"Shut up, you're the handsome one, Always being eyed, always so damn pretty. You have no idea how often I have to tell the lesbians visiting that your both a man and mine—" Grumbly as shit, arms tightening.

Vanders hand slowly reached out and practically pulled Silco into his lap. His head placed in the crook of Silcos neck, His arms tight around Ails midsection. Grumpy and in need of his thin belovéd.

"Can do. And sev said she's helping out too, yeah? It'll be an easy enough evening"

"I'm also sending Mylo to singed for tonight. It's his main punishment for drawing phallic shapes on my face-"

"Already have a stash but more wouldn't hurt. In truth smoking and cuddling tonight now sounds like a fucking dream come true"

"I want a day with you. A genuine day off. I . . . I just need to take a day to spend with you." That's as honest and vocal as he generally gets about wanting some attention and a lazy day.

Vander stopped Violet for a moment. "Let Silco know the plan too. My backs givin' me grief today so I'm not getting up for a bit"

"You, Powder, and Claggor at Benzos. Mylo at Singeds place. That should scare Mylo straight" He's smiling. "You and Claggor can watch powder to keep her outta trouble"

"Then how about this, You Powder and Claggor can go to Benzos and Singed will get Mylo for a day and see how he comes back." He grinned almost cruelly. There's a rare occasion where Vander is devious and it seems today is the day.

"That may be true but powder is so fond of little man that I worry they might get into trouble together AGAIN"

"Honestly, I just want Silco and a day off . . . Where the bar is closed for a day so I can just spend time with him" Loud sigh. "Buuut I've got no excuse to close the bar for a day and Mylo clearly can't be trusted for a few days"

"It couldn't have been powder, She doesn't draw phallic shapes anyways, it was the wrong colors and there were no genuine graphiti type scribbles. I figured it was either you or Mylo and you're much too old to be pulling pranks." Sipping his coffee, or rather finishing all but a spoon or so.

Vander listened and gave the advise just to go for it and hope for the best and not twiddle her thumbs about it. The longer VI waits the longer her rivals might have to get the girls attention. Vander noticed the youngest boy was nowhere to be found and sighed. "Mylo was the one to Paint all

More rumbling grumbles could be heard. Unfortunately that means any trouble maker is likely being carried outside and made to fight Vander as what happens on occasion to keep Vanders temper in check.

Vanders walking downstairs and hugged Silco, Seems they made Vanders mood go sour. He's just cuddled up against Silcos back, Grumbling about how he's going to find out which kid drew over his face and they'll be 'totally grounded for life' or something like that.

Temp pin 📌

Rolling over just to find his daughter took sharpies to his face. Rumbling grumbles as he uses Rubbing alcohol to try to get it off of his face.

{{ don’t go back to twitter don’t do it don’t do IT Uuuuugh it’s so quiet here, it’s killing me

[[ havin the same problem on my end sdkjf ]]

Grooooooaaaannn Streeeetch 💥 Frozen in place. "I can't tell if that was satisfying or a really big fuck up—"

Vander is making some food for Silco too now. Silco hasn't eaten yet either and he refuses to let the Lil' guy go hungry.

Silco manages everything fine while Vander took a little break to eat. Even going to split up an altercation. Settling it down with his usual charm of words.

Vanders just watching. A soft expression of awe really. Silco as a woman? He doesn't see that every day and man is she . . . Pretty. His eyes glance back down at the cup he was cleaning, Not quite Bashful but not exactly confident either.

Vander huffed but didn't stop eating, He's got his cheeks packed full. He looks like a hamster of a man in this moment.

Vander is fucking up that sandwich like he hadn't eaten all day. Cause he didn't. Big man literally forgot.

Vander stayed out of it while Benzo confirmed Silcos question. Vander seems to absolutely chow down on the veggie sandwich though.

Benzo groaned. "Powders come down with a cold and Ekko has been watching over her like a hawk, I swear that boy has the biggest crush and you can see it in his eyes from miles away" Vander chuckled but is making his food.

Banzo who had just walked in Looked confused and Vander laughed. "D-aw, Don't mind him, I think I might have Thrown his little trick back at him and Flustered the poor thing" Benzo looked at Vander and Vander looked back, a moment of just staring before they both busted out in chattery giggles

"Never thought you'd want a big fella like me to hurt you, Though I know how to make you squirm if I wanted to but ✨we're still workin'✨" Oh that little Bite back about how the Bar is still open. "Too bad I can't let anyone else see you in a state of . . . Disarray. Can't have anyone else chasing

"I guess it's because I learned to protect instead of harm . . . I also lost Silco in my universe and I think I'd lose mind if I lost you, Though I won't make the same mistake of hurting you." Muttering quietly so not a soul in the Last drop could hear it except sil. " 'nlss you want me to-"

"Why'd you choose me over the younger Vanders? Just curious. What, like Dilfs or Grey streaks that much?" He's got a chuckle to his voice. Amused but not disheartened by the idea.

"You aren't smelling me no—" He's chuckling, hands slipping around Silcos midsection, Leaning in against the man's shoulder. "I'll stay right here for a bit then"

A soft groan escapes Vander until he softly placed his arms around Silco, Hugging the gentleman close. "What if I wanted to take my 15 minute break to cuddle you? Huh? What then?" Vanders way of saying "checkmate"

"You're showing off again" A smile, trying not to admit he's been staring a little.

He doesnt. He's chatty tonight. Even making a few experimental shots with the younger crowd. He only takes a water shot, Silco doesn't like to drink when he's working.

Vander notices, enjoying watching Silco shake his hips slightly with the occasional drink. It might be that Sil doesn't realize he's doing it but . . . It's attractive nonetheless.

Vander huffed softly and is working hard, So many people ordering shaked drinks today. But he shows off his muscle a little bit at least.

Vander is just wearing a simple white shirt with stripes, it's hideous but beggers can't be choosers especially when you're his size.

"It's one of the drinks I enjoy a lot. Calling it bartenders choice I can charge you less for it in good conscience." He's laughing like a total bozo, Grinning and showing a soft and Kind side. Who ever said customer service had to be Falsified?
