This was a secret standoff. Their bosses may have agreed to a truce, but it doesn't mean THEY had. Sure, most of the other grunts had accepted this and even tried to befriend their old enemy.

But not them.

"Look what the persian dragged in. A bunch'cha land fuckers!" Damn those aquas. No one dare throw a punch no matter how tense it got, but they'd be ashamed to wear the magma name taking it sitting down!

"Odd, since Archie seems rather fond of land fuckers." One of them glared daggers into the smug magma grunt. Like the truce, they also shared a dislike of their boss' relationship. They may not have said anything directly, as Maxie's happiness was more important than personal distaste, but it didn't mean they couldn't shit talk the old rival's team!

"Says the ones whose leader is fucking twink." A few pirates shouted 'Oooooh!' behind the loudmouthed one. Grinning like he had slapped the man himself.

"Oh dear, I think you don't quite grasp what that word means. Don't worry, it's not very hard." Another magma grunt, smiling sweetly and standing prim and proper purred. "Archie fit the definition to a T with how loud he was begging sir Maxie to screw his brains out last weekend."

A few cursed them out. Shouting vulgarities as they stood perfectly in sync. Smirking triumphantly.

"Looks like someone doesn't know how pathetic their leader is! Well sweet pea, I'll tell ya. 2 weeks ago? At the Aqua base? Yer little prissy nerd was takin it up the ass on the boss's desk! Dudes got a set of lungs on him too!" One of the scum sneered. "We had to hear that all night. Begging for the King of the Sea's dick like a little whore."

The tiniest member walked forward. He wasn't the youngest, just short in stature. Yet he spoke with the sternness of a veteran follower. "You know, this is all quite funny. See, you keep saying this or that, but where's your proof?"

"'Proof?' Like you lot have any-!" A female pirate snapped. He cut her off with a laugh.

"Would you like to see last night's rendezvous? The one where your boss begs to try watersports? Or the one from last week showing him in his depravity maturbating with one of our leader's sweaters?"

"How aweful." Another giggled.

"Disgusting." The smug one laughed.

"We don't need proof! Yer leader was the one getting fucked like a dog in heat!" Team Aqua let out a string of laughs. "On the docks, or in the boss's bed, man kept taking it like a champ and you shoulda seen his face when one of us walked in on them."

"You liar-!"

"Aye, I saw it with me own eyes!" Another girl pirate threw out her chest and cackled. "Maxie was bent over, ass up and bitchy little face in the couch. Coated in fucking semen and sweat-"

"Hey Max, when did this all happen?" Archie whispered. They had been listening to the argument for about an hour. At first he had wanted to break this up immediately but the sheer amount of lies baffled Maxie into listening in just to how insane they could get.

"They didn't."

"Thought so. Oh, also, what the hell is watersports?" Well this was going to be awkward. Archie looked very serious but still equally as confused at he was. "It...doesn't sound sexual at all. Do I want to know?"

"Piss play, Archie."

"Oh." He seemed to think on it a moment before jerking his head back. "Wait, what?!"

"Where did they even learn this language...?" Ignoring the outburst, Maxie glared at the faces still very much arguing on each teams behalf.

"I don't know but they're gonna get it when I see 'em. Besides-" Archie shifted from his seat and grabbed the microphone looped to their location. "OI YA LAZY CRETINS, THE HELL DID YOU LOT SAY ABOUT ME FIRST MATE?!"

"Please stop calling me that." He muttered, cheeks pink from the shame of such a stereotypical and downright embarrassing pet name. Archie was too busy having a blast with their sudden panic and yelps.

"AND YA MAGMA BRATS; MAXIE'LL HAVE YER HEADS WHEN HE FINDS OUT YER SLACKIN ON THE JOB TO FUCK WITH MY CREW." At that his grunts shuddered and fled, but the aqua leader's group remained. "I hear ya yellow bellied smack talkers bad mouthin my lover again and I'll make sure you ALL get noogies fer a lifetime."

'S-sorry boss...' They murmured before hightailing it out of there.

Archie put down the mic and moved back next to Maxie. "That'll set 'em straight for awhile huh?"

"I just...the language they used..." He shook his head. Where had he gone wrong? For them to learn such filth...

"Eh, kids like to act like adults sometimes. Cept...I never got to visit last weekend." His lover pouted. "And you never came out 2 weeks ago either. I wish we had that amount of time."

"I don't recall 'begging for your dick like a whore' at all." At that Archie grinned.

"Oh I don't know about tha- ow! Kidding, kidding!" Maxie grumbled as he was pulled against the larger body still brimming with heat. "Gotta admit, it'd be fun to do all that."

"You've already had your fun." The pirate was still running his hands over pale skin slick with sweat. Maxie swatted the hand creeping to grab his ass away with a blush. "Stop."

"Like a dog in heat, huh?" Those teeth dragged along his neck dangerously. Dipping downwards to nip a new hickey to go with the others. Earning him a groan and hair tug. "Sounds awfully similar to what we were just doin..."

"Like YOU were any less desperate." He huffed irritably. Archie chuckled lowly.

"Aye, not gonna deny that...how about this time," Maxie felt his second wind returning as the other's breath tickled his ear. Hiding a growing smirk at his lover's ever vigilant cock waking up. "...you be the dog?"
