#baby skull just needs an mc and a mug of hot chocolate

OK, now you’ve got me curious. What would happen if MC got fired?
Tumblr media
Oh boyo. It’s probably someone new in management who doesn’t quite understand how important she is in keeping the prison actually running considering the two most powerful and dangerous inmates are smitten with her. They decide her relationship with the inmates is unprofessional, and they’re too attached to her… she’s out within the day.
Under the cut because Skull gets… upset. Tw a lot of death and blood.
Sans: He finds out first, considering he gets checkups with her so often. He goes to his checkup and it’s a new doctor… he asks if she’s sick, and he’s met with a cold ‘Ms. Mc was let go yesterday.’ So he does what he does best- lies. He immediately starts to feign worsening health, not eating, not drinking, not sleeping. He claims that Mc was the only one who actually knew how to treat him properly, and that the prison staff is neglectful and untrained. He knows how important the prison’s reputation is to them, and exactly how much privilege he has just by being so weak… And management is far too terrified of letting one of their physically weak monster prisoners die that they allow Mc to come back just to treat Sans.
Who obviously miraculously makes a full recovery upon her return.
Red: When Red finds out he’s furious. The one person he genuinely likes is the one they get rid of? Not on his fucking watch. He gets his boys together and stages a full-on prison riot- they can’t put all of them in solitary, and the new guy very much underestimated Red’s stranglehold on the interior population. They’re more afraid of Red than they are of the officers. His demands are very clear- he’s going to make every single goddamn day hell for the guards, cleaners and managers until he gets his little sweetheart back.
Skull: Let’s just say it isn’t pretty. He gets agitated after a whole day goes by without her visiting him, but he chalks it up to her being sick. She’s been sick before. He counts the seconds, the minutes, the hours… at the two day mark he stops eating. And on the third day, while a group of guards try to get close enough to keep him down while a doctor sedates him so they can make him eat, one of them accidentally offhandedly mentions that it’s a ‘shame’ Mc got fired and ‘won’t be coming back’ because she dealt with him so easily.
And Skull completely snaps.
He kills a guard before anyone has time to think, tearing his arms out of their restraints and slashing his chest open. A guard has enough wits about him in the panic to hit him with a taser but Skull’s running on such pure rage and desperation that he shrugs off the pain and pins him, tearing out his throat- the remaining guards fucking bolt out of there with the doctor while Skull beats and tears up a corpse in a complete blackout fury. No one can get in to get the bodies out; but it really isn’t a mystery what Skull wants, since he’s screaming Mc’s name so loudly it starts to choke him. The doctor ends up calling her and telling her to come- he doesn’t care what management says, they need this beast soothed.
She shows up in home clothes. The second Skull sees her in his room, he...
He just starts to weep. He’s relieved, confused, tired, and not even sure if it’s really her- he’s hallucinated her voice and face multiple times over the course of the last three days. He’s covered in blood and the room reeks of death… but she gently removes his mask and cradles his skull to help him calm down while he clings to her midriff and apologises over and over and over because he knows he did a bad thing and he’s getting bloodstains from his massive hands all over her pretty shirt and he hates that he has no control over himself anymore, but the only time he ever feels lucid or happy is when his face is buried in her clothes or hair or against her skin.
The bodies are removed while she’s holding him, and her job is returned to her within a few hours.
