Prompt - Don't Fear the Reaper

Blue Oyster Cult

The song is about the inevitability of death and the foolishness of fearing it, and was written when Dharma was thinking about what would happen if he died at a young age. Lyrics such as "Romeo and Juliet are together in eternity" have led many listeners to interpret the song to be about a murder-suicide pact, but Dharma says the song is about eternal love, rather than suicide. He used Romeo and Juliet as motifs to describe a couple believing they would meet again in the afterlife. He guessed that "40,000 men and women" died each day, and the figure was used several times in the lyrics.

The flames drew him, their reds and yellows alive and calling him. He stopped just outside their reach but their heat caressed over the front of him. Though his back was cold, he couldn’t turn away.

“I knew you wouldn’t be able to resist the bonfire, Love,” Aerin said pressing warm, his arms embracing from behind.

Marin let his head fall back onto Aerin, eyes closed yet the fire danced through his eyelids.

Magic bared skin to the heat and furs appeared under hands and knees.
Before the flames, with deep thrusts, Aerin plied his magic, stroking love’s fires within.

Marin stretched in front of the heat of the glowing fire, the erotic brush of the furs stroking softly down the length of bare skin on his front. “Mmmm,” he said and felt an arm pull him close.

“Should I throw more wood on the fire,” was asked in amusement, “or are the furs enough to renew your interest in more.”

Grinning from the hard prodding against his thigh Marin thought Aerin didn’t need more inciting but he rubbed his body from side to side against the furs anyway, knowing the view and imagining would tease Aerin sooner into action.
