when blitzo and fizzarolli where teens fizz walked in on blitz cutting himself after a particularly bad time with cash, in an attempt to make blitz feel less embarrassed fizzarolli confessed he cut himself too and showed blitzo his scars. later on blitzo asked fizz if he wanted to cut with him after it became a habit they started to cut eachother, giving eachother matching scars.
now that they are friends again they started to hang out more that explains why they are chilling at fizzarollis home with ozzie gone. both wearing casual clothes blitzos scars basically out on display without his gloves and sleeves, fizz couldnt help but stare.
"fizzzzz.. hell to fizzzz!" blitzo says as he waves his hand Infront of fizzarollis face after he was caught staring .. again "sorryy its just.." the clowns eyes travel back to others wrists again "oh.. heh.." blitzo suddenly feels shy as he puts his arms behind him "no!..i mean uh-" fizz stutters not meaning to shout like that making the spotted man laugh "well that was a reaction!" he laughs before getting playfully slapped "shut up!" fizz blushes in embarrassment "i didnt mean to stare.. i was just thinking about how we dont match anymore.." his eyes traveled to the wall avoiding eye contact as he spoke, blitzo made a surprised sound not expecting that to be the reason "oh.." the assassin looks at his scars and then up at fizzarollis robo limbs feeling a strong guilt for what happened again.
"hey! none of that!" fizz hit the other imp again "it isnt your fault stupid.." he sighed before smiling and looking at the man with mischief in his eyes
"i know how we can fix this" blitzo raised an eyebrow watching as the other turned and opened a drawer to grab a knife
"lets just do it again!" fizzarolli smiled
blitzos eyes widen as he stares at the knife fizz was now traying to hand him "f-fizz i cant do that.. i think i hurt you enough already.. i mean you dont-" he cuts himself off not wanting to mention how fizz didnt even have any limbs to cut on, "blitz. what did i juist say about feeling guilty?" fizzarolli lectured him sincerely. blitzo stayed quite internally arguing with himself before the clown spoke up again "how about i cut you first then?" fizz smiled warmly "is this secretly a scheme so you can get me back?" blitzo laughed as he teased the shorter "what? no, no way" fizzarolli said very seriously wanting to make sure blitzo knew he in no way wanted to just hurt the imp. "if ya say sooooo" blitzo teased "im serious blitz.. i want to match with you again.. and dont act like your clean or something!! you cant guilt trip me when half the cuts on your left wrist are no older than two days" fizz argued crossing his arms making blitzo laugh louder "got me there fizzy-" they both had a good laugh before the taller sighed and looked at the knife and at fizz "okay okay.. you cut me first and i will copy it onto you okay?" that made fizz smile brightly "okay!!"
"take your shirt off"
the assassin started laughing hysterically at the demand "fizz if you wanted to see me strip you coulda just said so!"
"shhut upp!" he laughed back lightly punching blitzo in the shoulder, blitzo smiled up at him as he took his shirt off
half his torso and chest where covered in scars from the fire, himself, and his profession, leaving one mostly unscared half to work with, thats alot like fizzarollis torso which is perfect! fizz smiled as he took his shirt off too so blitzo wouldnt be the only shirtless one, both boys ignoring the slight blush on their faces. fizz reached up places one hand on the imps other shoulder so he could balance and keep him still just in case, he breathed out before reaches the knife wielding hand up to blitzos upper chest right under his collar bone and started with a shallow slice to test it out smiling as he watched the black blood slowly fill the cut and drip down.
after the first few cuts each being deeper than the last blitzo let out a breathe he didnt know he was holding, he smiled looking down at the blood dripping down his torso. fizzarolli made many even and straight cuts going pretty far down his body ending nearly at his waist, the blood dripping to the floor before he finally pulled away to admire his work. the clown looked up at the assassin who was also smiling at him.
"okay! your turn blitzo!" fizz smiled wide as he reached out to hand the knife to the imp causing him to make a face as if he forgot he was supposed to cut fizz too. "r-right" he took the knife and stared at it for a while letting out a shaky breath.
"why am i having trouble with this i literally kill people for a living.." blitzo thought to himself as he reached the opposite arm to hold fizz the same way the other held him. slowly reaching out with the knife he made a shallow cut, it wasnt as neat as fizzarollis cuts but it wasnt exactly jagged either "they wont be very pretty fizz.." he pulled away again
"oh come on blitzo.. i want them cause they are done by you i dont care if they are even! i mean look at me.. do you really think THAT matters??" fizz smiled warmly as he spoke taking blitzos wrist and forcing up to his chest again. "it does matter fizz! your perfect and i have already hurt you so much i dont want to hurt you anymore or leave even more scars then i have... i-i cant do this.." he tried to pull away but the clown wouldnt let go "blitzo. it was an accident. you didnt cause shit. you arent hurting me if i want it dummy. now cut. as many as i gave you!" blitzo sighed as he obeyed a few more cuts before fizz butted in again "deeper! make them deeper i want them to scar" blitzo just nodded as he made more cuts going deeper the blood dripping down slowly. he cut as many times as fizz did to him them both having blood drip down onto the floor mixing together.
fizzarolli squealed happily as he leaned in and hugged the other "we are matching again blitzo!" making blitzo smile and laugh a little "we are" he hugged fizz tightly before asking "does it hurt? i can-" he was interrupted by a bonk on the head "shut up loser.. it doesnt hurt... okay maybe a little but i asked for it and i am happy about it so dont go feeling bad for it again okay?" he looked blitzo in the eyes his hands still on the mans shoulders "fine fine.."
"hey blitzo.."
"uh yeah?.."
"i think..
i think i love you"
"that better be true, i dont know what i would do if you didnt love me back.."
fizz smiled as he hugged blitzo tight "we should proballyyyy clean up now" that made the assassin groan
