~Painful Love~ (On Hold)

Hello! (I haven't abandoned my oneshots I swear, I just lost interest in a lot of my drafts.) Before we start: let's get some warnings out.

-Cursing
-Some 18+ scenes (I will give a warning, so you may skip over if you want too.)
-Generally blatant language for some subjects that may be uncomfortable for younger audiences (Genetalia, Sexual reproduction, Death, Etc.)
-Gore

I will be going to be giving warnings for these (except cursing and blatant speech as from my point of view it isn't that big a deal,) at the beginning of the chapter, so be warned.

The story follows two main characters, Exemplum and Parable. Credit for all the characters mentioned in this story goes to cs . mt on most platforms! I do not own these characters. As you probably know, Exemplum and Parable are versions of Ink and Error, but with more animalistic traits, features, and instincts. This is true for all the characters in the book. As such, this raises a few problems: but those have already been solved. The "bad guys" are considered the predators, and are based off ocean creatures, where as the Star Sanses (Ink, Blue and Dream) take on more of a "prey" role, as they are all modeled after birds. To avoid confusion here's a list of names, as they have been changed.

Ink - Parable (Crow)
Dream - Fable (Scarlet Tanger)
Blue - Bennett (Blue Jay)
Sci - Feist (Adélie Penguin)
Geno - Mistique (Milk Snake)
Reaper - Expirytique (Giant Forest Scorpion)
Lust - Pavone (Peacock Jumping Spider)
Fresh - Chem (Panther Chameleon + Tapeworm)
Nightmare - Figment (Cyanea Octopus)
Error - Exemplum (Moon Jellyfish)
Dust - Lupus (Atlantic Wolf Fish)
Killer - Toxin (Viper Fish)
Horror - Predator/Pred (Tiger Shark)
Cross - Crinoid (Feathered Starfish)
