Eclipse hummed, the ice-cold water washing over his frills as he showered. He liked it when the water was ice cold, barely above freezing, as it helped cool his body down. A pleasant feeling.
He heard insistent knocking, and he opened his eyes. What could Sun possibly want at such a young hour?
He turned off the water, shaking his frills out before drying himself off and wrapping himself in a large towel. Such insistent tapping, Sun is so impatient sometimes.
He opened the door, expecting to see Sun, but then saw there was no one there. He looked confused before he heard someone clear their throat. He looked down and saw the human, who shielded her eyes as she had her head turned away.
"I need to talk to you." She said stiffly.
He quirked a brow, smirking as he replied, "Really? Well, give me a moment." He shut the door, dressing in a simple black dress shirt and dress pants. His upper hands finished buttoning up his shirt as he opened the door with his lower pair, smiling at the human as he started to reach for her.
"Why the fuck did you think it would be a good ideA-!" She started to say, yelping when Eclipse grabbed her and pulled her into the room. He set her on a small pedestal in the room, bringing out a measuring tape. "What are you doing?" She said, smacking his hands away.
"Your measurements, darling." He replied, grinning widely as he started to measure the diameter of her bicep, but she slapped his hands away.
"No dude. I came here to talk about THIS." She said, pulling out the shirt he had given her. "It is CROP TOP. I no wear crop top!" She snapped, shaking the shirt.
"What do you mean, crop top? It is the size of a normal shirt." Eclipse replied unamused, trying to measure her arms, but she kept smacking his hands away.
"I tried it on and it don't fit. Too tight around the chest area." She said, turning her head away aloofly as she crossed her arms and huffed.
"Well if you weren't such a bimbo, that wouldn't be a problem." He muttered to himself, and she gasped loudly in offense.
"Ex-fucking-scuse me? I am no gods damned bimbo. I am not some ditzy blonde!" She snapped, and Eclipse growled as his hands kept getting smacked away.
"Then why are you fighting me? Stay still, I need to get your measurements so I can make you a proper shirt." He said, starting to sound annoyed. His upper pair of arms grabbed her wrists and held them above her head, his lower pair of arms measuring her waist.
It is a bit harder to measure with his lower pair of arms, he's not as used to it as using his upper pair. But Cadence is a bitch and he needs his stronger arms to keep her still.
"Nah, fuck you. I don't need no new clothes." She growled, her biceps flexing as her arms started to strain. Eclipse would never admit it, but she was certainly strong, and he was having trouble keeping her wrists together.
"Yes, you do. I can tailor you some fitting clothes if you just STAY STILL!" He snapped, growing exasperated as she brought her legs to her chest, placing her socked feet on his chest and pushing.
"Legoh! Lego of me!" She growled, struggling, and Eclipse's eyes twitched as he suddenly grabbed her shoulders.
"I am trying to HELP you. Why are you so against getting help? Stay still or I will make you!" He growled, and she glared at him defiantly.
"Oh, what, gonna tie me up?" She mocked, and Eclipse's eyes flashed a brighter orange as his lips parted, a subtle click being heard.
"No, but if you don't fucking stop struggling, I will paralyze you!" He snapped.
She rolled her eyes as she replied snarkily, "Ooh, is the big bad alien gonna make me a cripple just so he can get his measurements? What next, make me into a dolly?"
"I'm not going to paralyze you permanently, you dolt!" He snarled, baring his fangs. "Just be still!"
"MAKE me!" She spat back, baring her teeth.
He growled, pushing her back and trapping her on the wall.
"I will do it!" He growled, pinning her to the wall as his lower pair of arms kept her shoulders flat, his upper pair of arms resting on the wall by her head.
"Then do it!" She snapped. Eclipse growled, and then he bit her, his fangs flexing as dark blue venom entered her veins. "I regret my life decisionssss…." She slurred, slowly falling limp as the venom affected her, "Fffffuck youuuu…."
He cradled her to his chest, her eyes half open as she went almost completely limp. He walked over to the pedestal, sending a spark of electricity at the ceiling, activating the device that helped him with measuring.
Ropes dropped from the ceiling, parts of the rope padded, and he started to put her arms through two holes in some of the rope, fitting snugly under her armpits. He also put one under her chin, her eyes drooped tiredly as they almost looked dark blue now. As soon as he put a small harness around her waist, she started growling in her throat, and Eclipse shushed her as he put some harnesses on her knees.
"You only brought this up on yourself," Eclipse replied matter-of-factly, finally being able to take measurements now that she wasn't squirming like a toddler having a tantrum. He took notes on a small clipboard, humming when he measured her chest area.
"You were right. I made the shirt much too small for you. I was completely wrong on your waist-to-bust ratio." Eclipse stated, finishing measuring in a few minutes. "Done." He said with a smile, unhooking her from the contraption and holding her gently.
He knew the venom would last a few more hours, so he went over to his bed and laid down on it, having her by his right side as he started to read.
She growled loudly, and he rolled his eyes while saying, "Hush, I'm trying to read."
She only growled louder.
What a nuisance.
