 ((This is an RP for the twins Fidelity & Mirage to totally fawn over their crush, Bullseye. If you are not Bullseye or Trelweny - heart or talaye staff heart - please PM either RPer before joining in. Only tala that have already been met will be considered.
Of course, this post & these 'rules' might be subject to change if Bulls & I so decide. twisted We're just wierd that way.
oh yeah... in the poll's second option it means that one of the girls will fall in love with Bullseye, not anything else. As it is my poll it is for the input for the direction of my tala. No matter how badly I phrased it. ^_^))

Clouds spread tightly across the sky. Thin white clouds with sharp silver or grey linings that sparkled when the occasional sliver of bright sunlight forced its way between the stripes of white pulled cotton. Behind the clouds bits of bright blue sky could be seen, and combined with the shafts of sunlight made what could have been a dreary day crisp & interesting.
Trapsing along the banks of the river -not near where the couples tended to congregate- two young adult talaye females held counsel of a sort. Their light blue & violet faerie wings sparkled irridescently in the flickering beams of sun & their cream coats glistened. "Are we going anywhere in particular, 'Rage? Or just keeping away from Trelweny for a while?"
Their human 'mother', Trelweny, was going through massive attitude swings. Valentine's Day was fast approaching & their human was flipping between being silly like a little girl over the potential fun it could mean for her growing Gaia Family & torrents of tears as she cried over her lost love. Though the girls would have liked to help, there was little they could do & the emotional rollercoaster was tiring.
Carefull not to step on her sunset hued scarf the leading talaye did not even bother to look back at her twin. "Both."
Spying a fish sparkling in the river, Mirage crinkled her brow. With a dart of her sleek body & a bat of her paw she slapped the fish out of its watery home. Beaming, she held it down with a paw. "Want some?"
Her twin wrinkled her nose in distaste, shaking her head & causing her hair wrap to swing wildly. "uh, no thanks."
"Okay, 'Deli." Shrugging her shoulders Mirage picked the fish up in her mouth. "ryour ross."
Fidelity cringed. "Mirage, you shouldn't speak with your mouth full."

Traveling the river bank, not far from where the two girls were, Bullseye once again found himself lost in his own thoughts. The young evolved Talaye hadn't seen his charge Zoom in quite some time, yet he didn't seem too worried. Zoom was his nephew, but the assassin knew he could take care of himself. The pup had often wandered off and returned sometime later, and Bullseye didn't think that this time would be any different.
Unknown to him, his nephew wasn't so little anymore, but perhaps he'd find that out another day.
Thoughts drifted to the new Talaye he had met, the little pups John and Jane. John seemed like a reasonable fellow, the little male pup showing a keen interest in poker, and even giving Zoom a pair of cool glasses like their own. Jane however seemed rather different from her partner, the female pup more interested in business than fun and games.
Water lapping slightly at his paws, the evolved sighed. Despite their differences, John and Jane managed to get along...and they'd always have each other as a sort of family. Bullseye, despite having an extensive "family" thanks to his relation with Flash, only got along with Kavi and Zoom. The only other Talaye he knew that he could tolerate were Carumba and of course...the twins.
Ah the twins..such an enigma they were. The pair of them seemed highly interested in Bullseye, and despite his actions, he too was interested in them. But alas, it'd probably never work out. The two never did find out about his many murderous plans, and if they ever did they'd probably quickly forget about him.
Sighing once more, the evolved continued his trip, paying little attention to his surroudings.

Mirage grinned at her sister as she ate the raw fish, specks of food showing in a way that she knew would bother the ever-doing-the-right-thing talaye. Sometimes her sister just needed to loosen up. "Rif ryou ray ro."
She could see 'Deli's face start to get that look but then she seemed to catch a glimpse at something that must have only just come into view over Mir's shoulder. Her mouth opened, shut, then opened once more as if to speak, but no words came out. Mirage could only watch her in amuzed confusion as she ate, slightly annoyed that she was not getting the reaction from her sister that she wanted. That, and she was not taking kindly to being ignored. Swallowing her fish she glared at her sister. "Okay, Fidelity! What is it!"
"B... B... " "Come on, 'Deli! Spit it out!"
"Bullseye..." She breathed slightly breathless.
Eyes widening, Mirage hastily wiped her mouth with her scarf. "Bullseye?" She squeeked, excited & agast at once. "oh no! Not now! I've got fish-breath!" Spinning around she had to see for herself. There he was: walking slowly yet strongly, majestically. He seemed to be lost in his own little world. "Quick! Quick! I need to find a breathmint right now!"
The shout in her ear caused Fidelity to shake her head which brought her back from whichever daydream she must have stumbled into. She gave her sister a funny, confused look. "But I don't have a breathmint."
A whimper escaped from the back of Mirage's throat & her eyes twitched in mild consternation. What will Bullseye think of me with fish-mouth? She squirmed uncomfortable about what to do. They saw the evolved tala so seldom she did not want to go away, yet what impression would her breath make on him? oh! I never should have eaten that fish!
She started to run frantically aaround her sister in chaotic patterns, her nose to the ground, riverbank, & foliage. She was muttering to herself wildly. "mint. mint. must find mint."
It would have been funny if either girl was in their right mind. But like that was ever the case when Bullseye was near.

The male continued to walk, oblivious to the fretting twins nearby. Why did so much stuff bother him anyway? He was supposed to be a cold-hearted assassin...and yet he constantly worried about what his family was up to, or more recently how the twins were doing.
A leaf blown clear of it's home on a tree branch, fell right on Bullseye's nose. Pausing, the elder lifted a paw to brush it off, and it was then he finally spotted Fidelity and Mirage. Oh great...just who he was thinking about.
Mixed emotions tore their way through his mind. Part of him said to just run..forget about them. They wouldn't want anything to do with him when they found out his intentions for Talaye like Flash. But another part of him wanted desperately to get to know them better, and perhaps develop a more meaningful relationship. Paws twitching a bit in anxiety, he stood there and wrestled with his emotions to try and come to a decision.
Then, very slowly, he headed towards the two, a forced grin on his maw.
"Morning Fidelity..morning Mirage!"

Mirage stopped stone-still in mid-motion of her mint-search. Her face instantly burned crimson. A few paces away Fidelity smiled, a soft blush rising to her cheeks as her heart skipped a beat. He was as poised as always. "Good morning, Bullseye." The more refined tala replied, her tone almost dulcet.
Slowly -for her- Mirage pulled herself together. Trying to salvage some semblance of pride she turned to face the approching tala. She forced the twins shared joy of seeing Bullseye above her irrational fear to get the smile back to her face & eyes. "A very good morning to you, Bullseye!"
She put on a good face, but inwardly her mind was racing as fast as the girls' hearts... fretting about the scent of fish.
"Lovely day for a walk, isn't it?" Don't swoon! Don't swoon! The nearer the handsome blue talaye approached the stronger their shared thought pounded in their heads. As mysterious & untouchble as Bullseye was they did not want to waste this opportunity to spend time with the evolved tala by being unconscious.

Mirage's fear was highly irrational, as the smell of fish never even registered in Bullseye's already busy mind.
"It is a very lovely day..."
A pause, as he seemed to be gathering his thoughts and coming to a decision.
"Care to....join me? I wasn't really heading anywhere, just following the river."
A slight breeze blew through, causing the grass on the ground and the leaves in the trees to flutter gently. A few of the evolved's blonde bangs fluttered as well, covering up his bright blue eyes a moment before he blew them back out of his face. Ears perked slightly, Bullseye awaited an answer.

Four pairs of knees buckled but held firm as the twins watched in raptness as the wind tugged on blonde lockes. Remembering to breathe, Bullseye's invitation -still lingering in the air for the twins to whom time seemed to have slowed- finally registered. Creamy chests heaved & shuddered faintly as they drew several tiny breaths in a row very quickly together. "Join... you...?" They echoed, scarcely believing.
Moving in an interesting mix of attempting -inexperienced- temptress and enamored, tentative innocence Mirage & Fidelity managed to bridge the distance between where they had been and where the evolved talaye waited apparently so calm & regal & collected. As one mind they sidled up to him, Fidelity coming alongside him on the right as Mirage did the same on his left. So fluid & balanced were their motions that it was as if they had rehearsed, like a ballet, though it was only because they were of one mind on this. Perhaps one very confused & disoriented mind, but one mind none-the-less.
Trembling yet graceful their faces passed his as they walked the length of his body; not touching, but the movement of their bodies causing their fur to just barely reach out to brush occasionally with the very tips of his. When their tails were even with Bullseye's chest they peeled away from his side like syncronized swimmers. They stepped easy circles, their tails delicately brushing the underside of his belly as they turned around until their heads were abreast of his shoulder. They stood, heads tilted away from Bullseye to look up at him, their eyes bright & naive; Fidelity's blue eye giving her away against Mirage's green- Excitement & uncertainty swimming in their depths. Though they left him only bare inches between them on both sides, there was no further contact. At least not while standing still. "Of course we'd love to join you." "Just following the river is divine."
Skyblue manes belied any apparent calmness as the silken strands rose & fell visibly with the twins' jittery breathing under the evolved's eyes. A part of them realized they had just done a very bold thing, but their young bodies were still too electrified by the experience that there was little room for thier minds to contemplate it, for good or ill or even intention.

((XD The picture in the first post is so cute o.o ))
The evolved smirked slightly as the two drew their breaths, amused by their reaction. Apparently they really WERE interested in him. Is this what it was like to have friends? Or dare he say it...fans?
Thought quickly turned to surprise as the twins circled him in perfect synchornized form, eventually coming to rest on either side of him. He had watched their act out of the corners of his eyes, standing perfectly still as they seemed to perform an almost dance like move around him.
On the outside he seemed rather calm, even as their tails delicately brushed the underside of his belly. On the inside however he was a nervous wreck. But his career had taught him to hide his emotions, no matter how much they begged to be let go. To betray one's feelings was to give themself to the enemy...something that had been programmed into his mind since he was just a pup.
Recovering slightly, Bullseye took a few steps forward, own tail swishing just enough to brush along both twins fur.
"Well then ladies...let's go."

(( heart Glad you like. heart ))
Each girl shivered as the male's tail brushed them in turn, not able to mask as well their innitial reactions as Bullseye was. To their adoring eyes the evolved seemed as untouchable as ever. What did we think we were doing? Their shared thought filled their twin-link, neither really knowing what possesed them to tease so. Or were they just pushing their bounds? Neither really knew. Part of them wanted to fling themselves 'squee-ing' onto the tala, part of them wanted to play hard to get, part of them wanted to flirt, part of them wanted to try their paw at this 'seduction' process they had heard about, part even wanted to flee the situation & the emotional overload. Except the tiny voice urging them to leave for calmer emotions, the twins were certain only of staying with Bullseye. Of course they stayed. "Let's."
As he stepped, they stepped. At the practically inevitable times a shoulder or hip would brush -for neither wanted to widen the gap they had previously made however unplanned- the tala would shiver lightly & cast her eyes discretely at Bullseye for any sign of reaction. For a while they said nothing, not really sure what to say. They knew so little of the Tala holding their affections.
At long last it was Mirage's inability to remain quiet that won out.
"We met some pups who said they'd met you the other day." "Well, at least one said he had met you." Fidelity lightly amended her twin. Mirage continued, unwavered. "Said his name was John. Didn't seem to want to talk at frst. A pup named Cypher was the other. He had dizzying wings."

A small smirk was the only reaction the two would spot, the evolved fully enjoying the contact...even if he wouldn't say it.
"...I haven't met a Cypher, but I have met a John."
Funny that the pup would come up, considering he had been thinking about him and his eventual mate earlier.
"He is a bit on the quiet side...his partner Jane makes up for that. They apparently live near me since they kept calling me their neighbor."
A tail flick, once more brushing the girls at his sides.
"He's a good pup though...Jane takes getting used to, as she seems rather protective of her emotions."
Heh, well so was Bullseye, but he wasn't about to say that.

Partner
The word seemed to have a strange reaction on the girls. Subtle, something they did not see or even notice. Perhaps no one would notice. It was a change of thought perhaps. A thought that partners and mates were more than pairings & flirtings. Words & terms they really did not understand the full meanings of because they tended to have slightly different translations depending on who was doing the talking or explaining. Their human was certainly confused over such things at this time, having lost her own mate; torn between waiting forever for him & looking for new love. The twins did not envy her her situation.
For themselves, they had a notion... at least on the matter of the pups, John & Jane. "Perhaps she's protective of more than her emotions. Young talaye don't often think..."
A sudden blush swept over their faces as their words died off. They had not thought, they realised now. Off alone, with an older, more mature male tala who they knew so little about. He was larger & stronger & more experienced than they were. Their only mollification was that at least they were a two to his one.
Silly! This is Bullseye! There's nothing to fear from him! So their circle of thought came back & they were once again content. Calm, no. Bullseye was much to close for calm, but content, yes.
Their circle of thought did have one other side effect. "They live near you? Where would that be?"
Both girls tensed. Well phrased at least, sister dear. Mirage relaxed a fraction. At least she had miss manner's approval of the form! Now if only the question itself was not too forward!

Oh, but of all the Talaye there were, Bullseye should definitely be on the fear list. A calm, almost depressed nature at times held a ruthless and cunning mind. If it came to it, Bullseye would kill anything and anyone it took to keep himself, and those he cared about, safe.
But then...where did the twins lie on that spectrum? Ones he cared about...or ones he'd be willing to sacrifice? A moment of thought, and to his amazement he found....they were with him on the spectrum. He'd do anything to keep them safe...but why? He knew as much of them as they knew of him. They were an enigma..a puzzle..and oh did he hate puzzles. Yet he found himself wanting nothing more than to explore this particular puzzle and see if they too held the same feelings for him.
It was then that he heard them, asking about the assassin pups and where they lived. Shaking previous thoughts away the elder beamed down at them.
"Well I live off the main meadow...in a secluded little valley, over that way."
The evolved lifted a paw, pointing out the direction.
"I assume that they, and perhaps this Cypher fellow, live somewhere around there."
A slight pause, as he thought out his next sentence.
"Perhaps some time you two can come see it...it's a rather nice place, filled with just about everything the main meadow offers...just not as crowded."

They shivered from nose to tail, positivley giddy. He had told them! "We'd love to come."
Something confused them though. "Not as crowded? But we've rarely come across many when we come to visit the meadow. Maybe we've always gone to the wrong parts of the meadow?" In her puzzlement Mirage nearly tripped on the still dangling ends of her scarf. she tried to hide the furious blush that followed. Really! Tripping over her scarf like she was still a pup! How embarrassing!
"Maybe it's just the times we go... or because there are so many families... They were curious about other talaye, but not so eager or needy for their company so long as they were with Bullseye. For a reason neither would be able to explain the evolved tala filled their world when they were with him. If it were any other tala one might call it hero worship...

"Or maybe it's just because I don't like crowds...ranging from a few to a lot..."
Luckily for her, Bullseye didn't seem to notice Mirage's little trip with her scarf.
"No...I'd much rather be off in my own section then even trying to figure out how many Talaye there are. Though from what I hear a lot of them are 'related' to me...thanks to Flash. I'd just rather not call them family."
What good was a family you didn't know? A family that, for all he knew, was as bad as his heroic brother? Oh no, he'd much rather be left to his evil plots back at his home. Unknown to him the area was quite populated as well, but the area was so big they hardly ever bumped into each other.
