“And what do you think you’re-“ Tom started with a smirkHe stopped as Jordan turned around, a big innocent smile evident over his barely half purple face “Nothing..” Tom found himself squinting at the chicken in his handsThe grass in the plane fluttered lightly. “Jordan…” Tom warned as he took a single step forward. He stopped as Jordan took a step back. The two stared at each otherJordan smiled widely before tucking the chicken under his normal arm and taking off with a sprint“JARDON GET THE FUCK BACK HERE!” Tom raced after the man and his chicken, not missing the obvious smile and giggle in Jordan’s voice. He noticed a few eggs falling out of his pocket “Payback!” Jordan yelled before he reached Tom’s home and slammed the door shutTom, quick after him, jangled on the knob realizing the door was blocked by stone“That sneaky little shit” Tom smiled breathlessly before climbing up the side of his house. He’d have to find another way to get to the prankerHe grumbled at the new clucking sounds coming from inside his home “You get seeds! And you get seeds! Everyone gets seeds! And eggs!” Tom heard his friends voiceOf course that nerd would do a stupid chicken prank. Their shenanigans hadn’t started till recently. Ever since they left Ruxomar and landed back in Mianite..Jordan found himself on the same beach he had first woken up and met Tom on. Except this time, the green zombie woke up beside him, Tucker, Sonja, Mot, Martha, and Wag splayed out on the sand too. They heard the shouts of Jordan. Except it wasn’t. Someone older- SparkHe wanted to know where his wife was. And by the guilty eyes of Jordan and the Mianitees that there was no happy ending. Mot was tackled back into the sand- Alyssa holding him tightly as they rejoiced. Jeriah watched them at a distance, scanning them suspiciously before giving a curt hello and leavingThe Gods came before them- Ianite and Mianite. Alternate Dianite faced the two alone. They knew this Dianite wouldn’t be evil, the alternates had been helpful in figuring everything out. They let the Gods talk alone.Dianite planned to stay a distance away from Ianite and Mianite, and vise versa. Some memories just weren’t that easy to move past. Besides, they didn’t exactly see eye to eye on what ‘good’ means. They at least knew he wasn’t like his dead evil alternateTucker, Sonja, Wag, Jordan and Tom  tried going to their homes, leaving the aloof gods alone.  Turned out Jeriah had taken Tucker’s old home on the hill, Dianite, Alyssa and Mot took their business to the castle Tom had once shared with the Modesteps and Spark had taken Jordan’s home over the cliff- a meeting with the three Gods and Martha about Godly and family stuff was kept behind closed doorsTucker and Sonja were forced to build their new home and Wag started making a nice little cabin for him and Martha. That left Tom and Jordan to build their own homes as well. Both were decently far from the alternates and the gods but still nearby to Tucker, Sonja and Wag. Tom and Jordan ended up finding themselves to be close neighbors Tom would’ve started his pranking sooner if Jordan hadn’t been called so often by the Gods. Or been such a kiss-ass, helping everyone. Tom didn’t realize he had spent so little time with the man until he finally stomped to knock  on his door. When he got no response he tried knocking again. Tom could still vividly recall the loud crash of something hitting the floor before the door opened a crack. A shaky voice had asked ‘who’s there?’ and when Tom said ‘Who else would it fucking be?’, Jordan opened it. Tom did a double take. The left side of Jordan’s face was just barley covered with taint. Like, the Taint from Ruxomar. He could see some purple on his left arm too, just making it pass his elbowHe smiled at Tom but he knew something was wrong. Despite the leftover of watery eyes and fear, Jordan claimed he was fine and shut the door on him before he could even have a conversation with himThe second time Tom saw him, he was screaming. The taint had made it up to his hand and had little ground on his face. Tom had only seen Jordan’s purple arm gone- he only watched it fucking grow back. He tried to be ‘armless bros’ but Jordan had hurried off with some kind of unreadable expression The third time Tom went in search of him limbless bro in the hopes of getting his own arm restitched again. When he found Jordan he had run into him. Literally. Jordan turned around so fast, Tom wasn’t sure if he had cried recently. He was scared and questioned why he was here, the purple covering maybe a forth of the side. Then he threw himself on him and squeezed- a tight hug Tom didn’t hesitate to return with a soft rub. He shortly after invited him for a dinner, what they joked was a dinner date, as friends of courseThen Jordan fucking disappeared. He went to help anyone who was everyone, the fucking brown-noser‘Oh I’d love to help!’ ‘Of course I’d be happy to!’ ‘It’s not problem at all, I won’t go home for another week’ ‘No I can help, I don’t mind letting Tom stress over our little dinner date he spent hours preparing, not showing up and letting him sit there for hours waiting for me. I’ll be right over and won’t even give Tom an explanation till two weeks later!’ But here they were. Pranking each other with cobwebs and chickens. Tom was totally over it. It’s not like he misses Jordan and put actual real effort into making a good meal. He doesn’t mind that he sat and waited for him anxiously as his food got cold. Not at all. Tom broke a hole in his ceiling, not taking a second to look below him before jumping downThump“Ow- Tom! Nooo!” Tom had miraculously landed on Jordan and, by the sudden puff of feathers in the air, chickens. He took use of the situation and trapped Jordan’s legs. He loved the uncontrollable giggles turn into uncontrollable laughter as he tickled the man underneath him.“Th-tHe chicKeNs haHAHhaHhA- Tom!”Jordan eventually managed to push Tom off of him. He grabbed as many chickens as he could and ranTom was hot on his heels, both laughing as they ran through fields, chickens falling out of Jordan’s arms Tom chased Jordan all the way to some precipice. He briefly took notice of the sun starting to set, choosing to pay more attention to the tree Jordan hastily hid behindTom slowed down so he could sneak along the bristling grass. Cluck“Shh little chicken! I’m trying to save- aAH-“Jordan screeched as he went down,  Tom landing on him.“Noooo! My chicken friend!”  The chicken ran off, scared by the sudden movement of Tom’s tackle. Tom had Jordan below him again expect this time it was planned and he had Jordan’s arms pinned above him“How could you!” Jordan dramatically asked, a goofy smile present on his face as he looked up at TomTom lowered himself closer to Jordan, “‘Ya flooded my house with chickens Sparklez, I think I should grab that chicken and have him for dinner”Jordan could feel Tom’s breaths on his lips. He instinctually let his eyelids drop a bit as Tom drew closerTom found himself ogling at Jordan’s mouth-                                                                             and the purple half of his face. He noticed that it hadn’t full covered the half but it definitely spread since he first saw it“Well you did fill my house with cobwebs” Jordan whispered breathlessly before breaking out into another grin and laughingTom couldn’t help but start laughing with him and pull back to sit upJordan sat himself up, Tom no longer on him. “Well you don’t have to have that chicken for dinner”Tom scrunched his eyebrows, “Wot?”“Follow me!” Jordan grabbed Tom’s hand and pulled him to his feet“I thought I could make it up to you..” Jordan trailed off as they reached the edge of the small cliffHe smiled to himself as Tom stared a gape at the table with food and lights in the surrounding trees, highlighted by the sun setting behind“Since I missed the dinner you planned? I thought it was only fair if I made you one too. You don’t have to stay if you don’t want to- I’d understand if you’re still mad, I’m really sorry-“Jordan stopped when he felt arms around him, Tom pressed against him in a hug“Thank you”Jordan let his arms relax and laid one arm gently around the zombie to give his back a soft rub. He hesitated before laying his tainted arm around him too“Of course- come on foods gonna get cold” Jordan smiled and lead him to the table“Steak?” Tom questioned as he sat down, “Am I gonna die of food poisoning if I eat this?” he poked fun at Jordan’s ability to ruin anything he cookedHe rolled his eyes, “Yeah, chicken was already a no. And my cookings not that bad-““It’s that bad” Tom grinnedJordan huffed, “Just- try it?”Tom hesitantly ate a bite, “Holy shit, it’s actually decent!” He felt his chest swell when Jordan’s smile lit up- his blue and what looked to be a bit green eye lighting up too. He couldn’t really tell the other purple half of his face’s color behind his shadesTom felt a bit unsettled by the eye but he let it fall away, choosing to relish in the warmth of Jordan’s proudness “I told you! And for desert..” Jordan revealed, “A pie!” he paused, “because you’re a cutie-pie”Tom’s neck turned pink, “You remembered that?” he laughedTom had almost forgotten the birthday he celebrated with Jordan in Mianite- well, here. It was when he first arrived. He gave Jordan plenty of gifts, one of them ‘a pie because he was a cutie-pie’Times were simpler then. You could give your friend stupid gifts with verging flirt puns instead of worrying about a certain chaos God’s death or the growing purple taint on your friend. “So how’d the great Captain-Sparkly-Dick manage to make a steak?”Jordan gave Tom a playful scowl but right after looked down and rubbed at his tainted arm“I remembered the steak you made for Dec after he threw out the nutribar.. at Dine-At-Night..”Tom let his eyes sink to the steak. Something deep in him made the steak turn bitter. He was over it“Tastes familiar” he blandly commented Yeah, no, he wasn’t. “..It’s also the same steak you made for our dinner..”Tom knew what he was doing. He lead the conversation this way. He wanted to know- he needed to know“Why didn’t you show up?” Tom started lightly but he wasn’t really trying to control it anymore, “Why’d you help everyone else with other stuff? Huh? Why’d you fucking disappear out of existence? Why did you ghost me for two weeks and come back fucking purple?” He snappedJordan had noticeable shrunken in on himself, gripping tightly on to his infected arm“Well?!” Tom waited. Jordan didn’t meet his eyesTom abruptly stood from his seat and glared at the man staring downcast at his arm“Fine. I’ll see you around. Or in two weeks” He turned to leave He felt a hand grab his“Fuck you!” he spat, hoping to get Jordan out of his face.“Tom, please, let- let me-“ Jordan pleaded, squeezing his hand“Why should I?!” Then Tom heard his uneven heavy breaths, both of theirs“You have two minutes-““Two minutes-““A minute and 58 seconds”They found themselves staring again“A minute and 47-“ “Fine” Jordan sighed. He ran a hand threw his hair with his purple hand. He lowered his hand and stared at it before returning his focus to Tom“The night you offered the dinner- the- I-“ Jordan took a shaky breath, “Well, this happened” he gestured with his taint arm“It wasn’t.. fun- I couldn’t leave, it wouldn’t.. I ran to Ianite, I figured she’d know what to do. Not even Dianite knew how to get rid of it. We spent a week trying to fix it- you knocked on my door, my arm.. came off, I ran into you. It spread, I started having mini episodes, I can’t remember a few things.. but it’ll be fine! Ianite and Martha stopped looking into it because nothing dangerous has been happening- look, Tom, I’d never purposefully, I didn’t mean for this to happen, I’m sorry. Limbless bros?” Jordan offered a small smileTom was taken aback by all the information dumped on him. He fell back into his seat “Holy fuck, Jordan” “Truce?”Tom faced Jordan, “Truce” he offered with a sigh Jordan let go of his hand and stood up, Tom raised and eyebrow at thisJordan walked over and offered his hand *his normal hand*“What-““Watch the sunset with me”Tom blinked. He grabbed Jordan hand and let him lead him to the precipice “Wow..” he breathlessly sat on the edge, Jordan sitting next to him, his hand now emptyThe two sat and stared at the sun disappearing below the land of Mianite, stars getting ready to take it’s place. It was beautiful Tom glanced at Jordan. Yeah. Beautiful.Jordan caught his eye and turned to face himJordan and Tom staring at each other on the edge of a precipice, the sun replaced by dark and darker blues and blacks.Tom let himself lean forward, his hand reaching for Jordan’s untainted cheek.“And what you think you’re-?” Jordan murmured as he got closer“Nothing” Jordan’s eyes opened and he gently  pushed Tom away from his mouth“Not with the taint..”“Fine” Tom whispered He closed in one Jordan. He felt lips on half of his, half on his cheekJordan opened his eyes again but this time he saw Tom giving him a look he’d never seen before He offered a half smile. Tom felt his heart race“Never change Sparklez”Jordan watched as the soft smile turned into a smirk as Tom’s eyes flickered to something over his shoulder and widened “Tom?”The zombie pushed Jordan and ran past himCluck!Jordan turned in time to see Tom running off with an laugh, a familiar chicken in his hands“Little chicken! Nooo! Tom, get back here!” Jordan hastily stood up and chased after them“Payback!” Tom turned and smiled as he saw Jordan following him with a laugh tooYeah. He could get used to this again~“And what do you think you’re doing?” A voice behind Tom said dramatically He felt the blood drain from his face. He knew that voice- he knew who it was supposed to belong to

He turned and smirking down on him with his arms crossed was JordanExcept it wasn’t“This isn’t right! You won’t-““Get away with this? How cliche” The *thing* flickered his sword at Tom, it obviously wanted to use it “I wanted to at least keep you alive to watch me have fun with this body.. guess I’ll just have to kill you now-““Leave my friend the fuck alone!” Tom instinctively sliced forward, his sword cutting off it’s armHe winced as Jordan’s face contorted in pain and he felt his heart race when he saw it turn into an insane smile right after“Awh come on, limbless bro. Loosen up” Despite the glare he kept, Tom nervously backed up to the wall. There was no escape- the entrance of the old booby-trapped castle was being blocked by it“Oh Tommy” Jordan ripped off his shades, showing Tom the full face of his tainted friend. The taint spread all across his face, covering the area around both his green eyes. The only normal part was a small corner of the bottom corner of his face. Jordan crushed the red shades with his foot, grinning at Tom’s rapidly increasing angerJordan moved his tainted hands in a rise motion and Tom struggled against the Taint sludge rising from the ground engulfing his legsIn the two seconds it took for Jordan to close in on Tom the sludge had reached his elbows he couldn’t moveTom felt warm tears fall down his face as a disgusting kiss was forced on him “Maybe I can use your body after I kill this one”Jordan’s green eyes glowed as he turned and started to leaveTom tried to yell after him but his neck felt like it was getting crushed by the sludge“I should get rid of this killer headache first. It’s like there’s something screaming in my head. See you soon, friend”Jordan smirked and turned with a wink, slamming the door of the castle behind himHe waltzed all the way out and looked up at the sky, the grass beneath his feet turning a dark purple Trailing his eyes down from the sky before the tainted man was a god“Took you long enough” “Did you erase the traitor’s memories?” An exasperated voice growled“I’m not fixing memories anymore. We’re taking over now or I’ll do it without the help of a *dead entity*” The voice coming from Jordan snapped as it turned more demonic“You think you can disrespect me? I’m who summoned you. We had a deal”“The God of Chaos and Evil always makes a deal” Jordan musedGreen eyes burned bright underneath the stars above as he slaughtered a passing chicken“And I’m not among you weak Gods”
