when they're pulling your insides out
Moving between planes is, in theory, a dangerous practice. Taako has never had trouble with it before; normally, it's like, well, blinking, he's there and then back again, safe and sound.
That's not the case this time.
This time, he blinked out of one plane, but he didn't immediately step into the other-+ something felt... wrong. Like he was shifted or snatched out of the air, captured, and...
... And then he wakes up.
He's strapped down, bound to some cool, flat surface, his chest bare, though he's been left with his pants and undies, which is awfully polite of whoever kidnapped him from between planes. When he speaks up, his voice is shaking, just a little.
"Uh... h-hi, uh... anybody there?"

"Subject is experiencing normal levels of trepidation. I will now widen the incision." As soon as he's done speaking, he proceeds, extending the cut. The scalpel is so sharp, it's like a hot knife through warm butter as he opens first the skin and fat, and then the abdominal wall.
"Interesting." Byakuran gently prods the elf's exposed guts. "Subject has longer intestines than human subjects. Perhaps descended from herbivorous species?" He decides to use the fact that Taako's awake. "Can you eat meat?"
no subject
For a long moment, Taako is silent, other than the small, trembling sounds of horror spilling from his lips with each breath, his gaze pointed down at himself; he finally closes his eyes tight, his fingers curling into fists.
"I... I... uh, I mean... yeah...? I-I'm a vegetarian though..."
no subject
"Subject is... apparently elven, spleen and gall bladder normal, slightly enlarged liver, whether from disease or nature I can't say without labwork." He takes a quick biopsy of Taako's liver. "Stomach... average size. Kidneys, healthy." He sighs. "Oh to have a look at your brain... But I'd have to acquire the machines for that, and even my moscas could not do so unseen... Hmm."
With that, he removes the retractors and begins to close the wound. "Further examination will commence in half an hour." As he says that, he pulls off his blood-stained gloves and places a hand on Taako's incision. The purpose for the slits in the back of his shirt become apparent as large white wings slide out of his back, and shine golden light down. Sun flames lick along the wound, promoting cellular health and reconstitution, and soon it's closed, leaving not even a scar. "Much more efficient than sutures, wouldn't you say?" He lifts the mask off Taako, turning off the gases, but leaves the IV in. There's a lot of blood. Kind of everywhere.
no subject
With the removal of the mask, panic begins to settle in anew, creeping slowly over his skin and rising in his chest with each passing moment.
So he's been collected by some... interplanar scientist. The ease with which the incision is repaired doesn't do much to mitigate the horror of the fact that he was just cut open, but it does help at least make him feel as though this guy really doesn't want him dead.
"... what... uh. Can I ask what exactly you're... going to be doing to me then...?" A bit of his typical snarky sing-song tone returns to him as he sobers up, as more time passes between seeing his own guts, the sensation of Byakuran pawing around inside of him, and now. "Like, uh... a-at least a warning would be great..."
no subject
It's a good half an hour before he returns, in fresh scrubs and apparently showered. He's also got a small box in his hands. "Hello again. This will hopefully be a little less... invasive." He sets the box on the cart and starts to undo Taako's pants.
no subject
Taako can't help but giggle weakly, half-heartedly at that claim, a deep flush creeping across his face and ears as he remembers what's coming next.
"So, uh, what's the plan here? Are you just gonna examine me or whatever, and then let me go, or...?"

"W-whoa, uh! Hey there, doctor! That's-- a little on the sensitive side down there!" He giggles with nerves and embarrassment, shifting slightly.

"Uh, I, uh... y-yeah, definitely a baculum."

He giggles weakly.
"Mm, uh... hheh, I-I gotta say, um, this is... a lot more fun than the first exam, so far..."
no subject
As he speaks, he continues to palpate and massage Taako's penis. Only when it is fully erect does he let go, and pull out a tape measure, test tubes, and a swab from the cart.
no subject
"Uh... let's... yeah, uh, let's not... do that, please," he requests nervously-- and then he sees the new tools that were brought out, and he feels like he's in some very surreal kind of sitcom suddenly.
The tape measure is almost a comical addition, and yet the one he's the least nervous about in the scheme of things.
"... uh. Getting less fun now, suddenly."
no subject
With that done, he takes a swab of the pink tissue of the cock proper, and a second swab down the sheath. These go in two of the test tubes. The last and largest is pressed to the head of Taako's length as Byakuran begins to jerk him off more earnestly.
no subject
He starts to question what those swabs are even for when, suddenly, something is pressed to his tip, and then there are warm fingers wrapped around his cock, stroking him more properly, and whatever words he was going to say are cut off, turning instead into an open-mouthed whine.
"Ah-- uh, um... h'okay, uh, okay with this part, heh..."

However, after moment, his breathing does quicken a bit, his body arching and shifting up into that touch a bit more urgently.
"Ah, um... heh..."

And then he relaxes, hanging more loosely in his restraints, his eyelids fluttering and breathing harsh as he comes down; when he looks down at Byakuran, he can't help but halfway-stifle an embarrassed giggle at the sight of the man there in front of him, holding a tube up to his cock. It's so bizarrely clinical, such a contrast to what he just experienced.
