Welcome to Gaia! ::

Roch wasn't the only one having some issues with his homework. The dust bunny had broken out of its jar and was currently rampaging through Shun's room, knocking a few things over here and there. He had to place a few things on top of his bed such as his laptop and guitar to avoid getting those damaged by the critter.

This was such a pain in the a** to deal with. At the very least, it kept his mind off of other things. It was only a matter of time before this distraction would end, however. Outside of his own issues, there was a thing or two he wanted to ask Roch of.

Though, all that would have to wait until after he could get the damn dust bunny to settle down.

"Arkham, pin it down or something," he ordered soon after hearing a knock at his door. Immediately, the organoid started to give chase to the thing, trying to snatch it up or anything really. In the meantime, Bent-Tail was watching from the bed as well, staring as the other two minis ran about the room.

"Hey," he grumbled as he opened the door, seeing the other Reaper waiting outside. He sounded a little less than enthused, if not irritated at the moment.

Nodding with a sense of irritation, Shun glanced at the fluff in Roch's hand before letting him inside. By this point, Arkham had managed to capture the dust bunny, keeping a firm hold of it in his jaws in the meantime.

"Good boy," the Reaper said before looking back to his partner for the assignment, "Meh."

Things could definitely be better, but at the same time, he supposed they could be worse.

"Rather would not write, but I guess we need to take some notes of sort on their behavior," he frowned, "So far all I have is that they're a big pain in the a** to deal with. Wrecking my s**t."

"Sounds good," murmured Shun as he reached for his phone as well. Out of the corner of his eyes, he noticed something... pink on the screen of Roch's very briefly. He didn't get a good view of it, but pink didn't really seem to be the other boy's color of choice.

Narrowing his eyes, he went on to take a picture of the fluff while it was still in Arkham's grasp.

"By the way, what is Xiu to you?"

"You could say that," Shun said while moving on to take a picture of some of the things that were knocked over. He might not have been looking at Roch, but he was still listening pretty carefully. When he heard that Danny was seen as a sort of sibling, he frowned. It was a wonder how the other could put up with the brat.

"I'm well aware of that," he replied plainly, "She is a Baku after all. Seeing and eating dreams is what she does."

His gaze shifted over towards the other Reaper for the moment. There was no smirk or anything in his tone that suggested he was joking with his next question.

"Or is this some roundabout way of you saying she's the girl of your dreams?"

Lowering his phone for the moment, Shun turned more towards Roch as he explained the situation. Well, that sounded kind of familiar. A part of him had to wonder just how many secrets of others Xiu had stored away in that little head of hers now. There was some potential for blackmail or extortion there, though he doubted she was the type to do that sort of thing.

"You just do," he shrugged, "You speak as if you're the only ones whose secrets she's stumbled upon."

Turning away again, he moved on to see what other bits of havoc the dust bunny had caused to his room.

"I just take solace in the fact that she won't spill those things. Irritated I was at first, but for the most part, things hadn't changed. She knows more about why I am the way I am. As long as she doesn't share these things without my permission, there's no issue."

Shun's eyes narrowed as he looked back from the clothes that had been strewn across the floor thanks to the bunny.

"She doesn't know what to do," he said lowly, "Xiu's been incredibly upset over all of this, afraid things will change. Hell, she doesn't even know how she feels anymore."

That last bit was one he was familiar with and it was not pleasant at all.

"She doesn't even know if you're joking or not," he started before facing Roch more directly, staring hard at him, "Which is what I was trying to find out."

"Keh. Some friend you are. I suppose toying with the emotions of others is fun?" he hissed before looking away, "I doubt she'll be pissed. I've never seen her angry. All that will be gotten is her getting upset even more most likely for messing with her like that."

Shun couldn't help but sneer at the thought.

"But make up your mind and stick with it," he grumbled.
