[GET IT, Cause False is Fire and Amphi is Water? :'DDDD ]
Amphi was feeling considerable better after he nightmare and her talk with Thana. Though the reaper had been aloof and....well there was really no way to describe Thana beside him being...him. Any who, feeling a lot better.
That and she wasn't trying to be suspicious while she "hung" around the reaper dorms to make sure nothing happened to him. Cause...Nightmare or whatever.
Even now, she sat nervously in the Reapers common area, twiddling her thumbs in apprehension. Waiting.
Just one look to make sure he was alright and then she'd be gone. She wouldn't stick around for crass remarks or anything or....his stupid grin...or yeah.
"Oh...Jack....Am I being...a Stalker?" She gasped and covered her mouth..."No surely not, its just making sure everything is alright...." Yeah she was completely wrapped up in it and not really aware if someone would happen upon her there.

"That depends, are you stalking someone right now? You seem to be very bad at it if you're announcing it out loud..." The voice came from her feet, a small grey and black feline with paws covered in ink sitting in front of Amphi with a grin on its face.
"I'm with the cat, you aren't stalking if your so blunt about it. Try hiding behind some plants next time?" The boil was passing through the common room from the shared showers, his robes tied at the waist with the top and sleeves acting as a belt. His usual black jacket was no where in site, and the only thing he really wore was his usual pendant and a towel around his shoulders.
"But let's say you are stalking? Who and why?" He flopped down into a chair beside her, not at all seeming phased at having just stepped out the shower.

Amphi jumped as a voice joined her in the room, looking down at a black cat. His paws seemed to seep a black liquid at the end of them and yet...did it leave a mark on the floor? If it did, Amphi didn't notice.
"Um...Well...I don't think..." Amphi didn't jump as another voice joined them, a deeper baritone or something of the likes had her looking up and...
Staring.
Blood drained from her head to her cheeks as he blush exploded, ear fins twitching nervously. "I...Oh...Uh...Um..." She stuttered out, as he took a seat next to her.
He was nude.
Not really nude, but....not wearing a lot. And she recognized the material he wore as towels....that covered his assests but still left a top half of him naked and Amphi wasn't really used to NAKED MALES.
Especially ones that just sat down next to her in the commons like it was totally normal and that it was okay and oh god was she overreacting.
Trying not to stare at him, She focused on his question instead.
"Plants, I suppose that is a good...uh...hiding place." Look at the fire...the wall...The cat familiar. "Your Familiar is very...oh jack..." She made the mistake of looking over, her face burning now, "Cute and Uh....I was....checking up...on Thanatos and Biskoto. To make sure they were here...Safe...Alive...Safe...Yes." She shifted nervously in her seat.
Out of the corner of her eye though, she noticed this reaper had bright long red hair, and pretty green eyes. In truth, he was a stark contrast to others she had met, the only red hair being she met a human.
In that way as well, she was trying to pretend she didn't notice that beads of water rolled down his hair and to a very broad and masculine and
PURE THOUGHTS AMPHI, OH GOD THE PURE THOUGHTS.

He was rather good looking wasn't he? If it got any hotter in this room his glasses might steam up. After all, a young boil, a young ghoul, both where rather skimp on the clothing. It was a very suggestive moment yet somehow the boil managed to ignore it with complete ease.
"Really it does help. Being out in the open doesn't hide you at all for stalking." He glanced at the cat by her feet shrugging, "I think he tries to hard."
The cat batted playfully at the ghouls leg before hopping up into her lap leaving not a hint of ink behind him at the moment. (It would be rude to get a new friend sticky with ink of course.) "I think I don't try hard enough really. Oh oh oh you know Biskoto??" The chittered with delight at the thought of it's good snake friend.
"Ahhh those two, well it's good to know someones looking out for them I guess." He reached up running a hand through his still damp hair tugging it back over his shoulder with a sigh, "I left my damn keys in the dorm room and the gnomes are taking forever to get a spare... I think they even took half my cloth's just to spite me even more during this..."
The sad part is this was all completely true.

Amphi wasn't sure if the room got hotter due to the fireplace burning up, the blood pooling in her face, the FACT THAT THERE WAS A NAKED REAPER JUST CHILLING BESIDE HER.
All three could contribute to the scenario and while Amphi didn't have glasses to fog up, she certainly was enteriely too aware of the situation. And although she, as Thana like to phrase it, was on strike on clothing, It still didn't help her settle into a compromising comfortable...situation.
"Duly noted for the next time...I ah..come here. Though you don't have many plants to hide...." She looked around the room and then focused on the Cat instead. For some reason, she had a fond weakness for Familiars and Sharpie was no exception. He was just so adorable...and easier to talk to then the Reaper owner. "Do you try to hard Sweetling?" She didn't make a sound as the cat played with her legs and then made a home on her lap, enjoying the attention instead. "I don't think you have to try at all Little one...Oh...Ah yes..." She smiled shyly, "Biskoto is a very good friend. And very knowledgable about things. I go to her with many questions. She also seems to understand Landwalkers better then I." Amphi nodded.
With Sharpie on her lap, she almost felt at ease. Until she looked over again.
"I uh....Yes..." Blush returning, incoming. Amphi shifted in her seat again. "I'm surprised to ah...know you know them." Well it wasn't like it was a big dorm Amphi. "Oh...Is that...why you...are uh...." Amphi waved her hand at the boil, "Dressed...so uh....That's a horrible thing to do...." Just how did one say half naked, or close to naked. And why would gnomes steal his clothing....and without his key....didn't that mean he was stuck out here? And because she hadn't seen Thana, she couldn't leave either. Trying to change the subject (Because the more she thought about her being in a room with a skimply clad Boil, the more nervous she got...and the more nervous she got, she rambled.), she looked back to the Ink Kitten before cocking her head.
"My name is Amphitrite....or Amphi...My full name is a mouthful..." Amphi blinked, "I'm a mermaid from the Monster dorms...um friend of Thanatos and um...Its very nice to meet you both." There you go Amphi, START WITH NAMES. "Aren't....you cold...wearing what you are?" She blinked. Okay why did she ask that.

"We could always make a smoke screen too..." The reaper tapped his chin seriously debating these things for no other reason then to pass the time. He noted she was feeling a bit out of place, but he tried not to make a point of it.
"I don't try much at all. I just roll around and purr a lot, lots of people love that a lot." To make his point he rolled over in her lap waving his paws at her. It should be illegal to be that cute. "She's rather smart for a snake and she gives the best cuddles. Really. Snake cuddles are the absolute best!"
When she next looked over False was resting slanted towards her, chin in his hand, elbow resting on the chairs arm seeming to gaze off at the fire. "We met during the elements of FEAR class." He shifted a bit his eyes slanted sideways to watch her as he spoke. "We've had a few run in's since, he's an alright fella and the familiars hit it off."
Slowly he ast up stretching his arms above his head, a small crack emiting from his back as he stretched. "False, and the cat is Sharpie."
"Hiiiiii," he purred from her lap.
"As for cold...wearing... nope." He leaned back in the chair again in the same lazy pose his other hand reaching out a small orb of fire flickering to life in it. "I'm a Pyromancer, we work in the ways of fire. I've never felt cold a day in my life really..." He tilted his head one more time tapping his chin, "...Do you need to be warmed up at all?" For a moment a sly smile flickered across his face.

"Well that would be....a elaborate escape should he attempt to find me..." She laughed at the idea of the Moira reaper getting blinded by a smokescreen....He probably wouldn't like it. If she didn't focus on the scanitly clad boil, it wasn't hard to enjoy his company, nor that of his familiar.
Mostly his familiar.
"Well, It is a coy little scheme Sharpie." She liked his name too, very adorable. She laughed again as his paws shot up in the air, poking at the soft inky padding of them. "Well I think I might've fallen in love." She nodded though eagerly, "Biskoto is very good at snuggles! But she's really heavy and I can't hold her like Thana does." Amphi seemed a little saddened by that.
"It's nice to meet you False." She flushed as she realized now that he was looking at her and ducked her head. "Ah! I haven't seen him in classes. We just met randomly. He was uh...Fascinated with the fact that I am not a landwalker...I think." She nodded before smiling, "Biskoto gets along great with a lot of people. its good to know she has a lot of friends and close to her as well."
And then Amphi was flabbergasted as he stretched up, chest poking out. Naked chest. Good god, why did she have such a hard time with naked man chest.
She blinked as he answered her question. "I see, so your of the fire element. Does this mean that you always run hot?" She leaned over to look at the flame. Being of the water, Flame of course was a rare thing for her to see. And to see one control it well...."That must be nice! Though I do admit, I've only had hot days here since I left the sea...." She blinked up at him, still leaning over the chair and cocking her head to the side.
While still bothered by his attire, she was more curious as to his statement.
"Well I am not particularly cold but I have been told that my clothing makes other people cold. How would one warm up another?"

Sharpie grinned in her lap, a cheshire cat kind of grin. "Elaborate and explosive comes with the family business dear." He waves his paws just a bit more, batting at her finger as the trio casually chatted. "Sorry m'dear but I'm just afraid it would never work out." He stretched out on his back dramatically putting the back of his paw on his forehead in mock faint. "False hasn't tried to hold her, and I prefer to just curl up in her coils. It's a very nice nest."
False meanwhile continued to watch the ghoul leaning on his hand again, the fire rolling in his other hand side to side, nothing fancy, very small. Honestly it was the limit of his power mostly without Sharpie being in contact with him.
"Pleasures mine Miss Amphi." He bowed his head towards her slightly with a smile, a very charming kind of smile. "I've never met a sea dweller myself, but the swamps weren't exactly an ocean now."
The cat finally ended its fake faint with a nod, "The two of them are welcome friends of ours any time!"
"You could say I run hot indeed." He winked with a grin squeezing the fire causing it to vanish in a puff of smoke. "It's actually rather hard to control, when I'm with Sharpie it's easier, but for the most part it's a bit ahh wild."
Finally they got back to the topic of being hot and cold, shifting in his seat he moved over patting the seat for her to join him, "Well come here and I'll show you~"

"Well that's goo dto know should I ever need....a Smokescreen while I watch somebody? If I do that...I mean its not a habit." Amphi blinked. Her fingers danced with Sharpie's paws as he played. "That's too bad Sharpie, should you ever want some cuddles though, I will pleased to do so." Sucker for cute animals, yes Amphi you are. His faint amused her too. "I shall try not to be hurt by the truth dear Sir Sharpie, perhaps we can just be friends instead." She giggled, having to much fun with the kitten before nodding.
"It's smart not to. Biskoto is super heavy, and with how long she is...My height and weight can't even..." She just shook her head.
She was still leaning curiously closer to False though, attracted to the flame like a moth before smiling up at him. Albeit her smile was mottled by the remaining blush on her cheeks, and shy eyes. In fact, it was hidden well beneath the black hat she wore. Her nose wrinkled at the mention of the swamps.
"While a water source indeed, Swamps are not of my favorite places to visit. They often have creatures in the water even I don't know what to call them." She sighed wistfully. When Sharpie revived himself, Amphi just smiled and scritched between his ears.
She wasn't sure how to feel about his smile or the wink added. It reminded her faintly of Thanatos's teasing smile or...That horrid vampire flirt Lou?
"I see, It's still very pretty." Amphi had no knowledge really on the aesthetics of controlling fire after all. Even her FEAR manifested in water that she used to heal another Student.
She stared at his offer though. Stared at him. And her womanly instinct was telling her that it was dangerous. But she was ever the CURIOUS mermaid and while Hesitancy butted heads... Curiosity won out. Getting up, she shyly sat next to him...BUT NOT CLOSE TO HIM. Like she was peeled to to the side of the chair and watching him wary eyes, also, her wary eyes were directed UPWARDS, towards the CEILING, Because he was still...HALF NUDE.
"Does it involve doing something with your flame?" She asked innocently.

Sharpie cooed in the most adorable manner, "Bad habits are veeeery hard to break Miss Sneaky Stalker." His paws waving happily at the fingers teasing him before he fainted. He kept up the act for the most part even while discussing Biskoto, he offered another wink at the friends comment, "Friends with belly rub benifit riiiiiight?"
She was actually rather cute False noted while she leaned in, her blush just added to it. It was different, not like Lattice, somewhere between her and Anna, and it was just too good to pass up on at this point. After all he had time to kill till his room was opened.
"You don't even want to know what what grew in our swamps... half our life is spent trying not to have our homes consumed by it, the other half fighting what crawls out."
Finally she moved a bit closer, she was almost on the arm of the chair rather then sitting in it, but that could be easily fixed right? A single hand took her's pulling her over.
Oh yes.
False in all his bare chested glory gently tugged Amphi to sit on his lap! If she wasn't in a full blown panic at this point she would realized that the reaper had his hands very lose around her waist, not forcing her to stay, but a soft heat seemed to radiate from his body the whole time.
"Internal heat dear, a Pyromancers Soul." He moved his hand to tap gently at his chest, "We do indeed 'run hot' quiet a literal statement."

"Well...but..." She just flushed at the kitten before nodding vigoursly..."I will rub your belly whenever you want! As long as you don't get to frisky and bite or scratch me. Or get any ideas that because I am a mermaid that you get to eat me..." Because that had happen. Cats in particular had a fondness for following her around after she took a dip with her fish pals in the sea.
"That's horrible..." She shivered, thinking of the swamps she had barely waded through. A couple steps in and she had decided that swamps were a gross....unhabitual home and those who made it theirs....often suffered. It sounded like False was no different. "That's....I guess....What doesn't kill you makes you stronger? Perhaps you should visit a gentler sea instead!" She flinched and had to resist the urge to pat False on the head. A habit (a bad habit) she did when she wanted to comfort another.
She had almost made herself comfy on the edge of the chair when his hand snaked out, pulling her forward. Squeaking loudly, her hand fell to something warm and hard and...bare? Blinking, she looked up at a content reaper.
To him, her face was disbelief....and then it started reddening rapidly. Her whole body started to match her face.
"I...Um...This..." She wiggled in his lap unsure just what the HELL she should be DOING. WHERE DID SHE TOUCH!?!? HER HAND WAS STILL ON HIS CHEST. OH MY GOD.
"Fal...False." She was staring now where he tapped his chest and tried to focus her thoughts. Instead she was a squirming mess and blushes and such. "Yes...your warm...Um...but...this..." She was kinda of just staring up at his green eyes. She tried to focus on what he said.
"Are all Pyromancers...um...this hot?"

"I'd never do such a mean thing! I love my tummy rubs! And I wouldn't eat you! I prefer mice and smaller prey that's more my size and not pretty nice ghouls like you!" With her distracted and sitting by False the cat took its time to wander over near the fire curling up most happily.
"Maybe, but Old Lando ruins are amazing, and New Lando is even more lovely. Castle's towers, spires all about rising on the cliffs above the swamp lands. This place really has nothing on it in my opinion." He shook his head shrugging a bit, "I've never seen the sea, well I take it back I've seen one, but I didn't stay long. Wasn't really a place I could see myself you know? Bit too much water."
However what was more important was that hand, on his chest.
His bare, sexy, warm chest. Oh yes. This was every kind of bad romance novel moment all in one and it had to be happening with a red head of all people. His one hand moved very lazily, casually even, to place overtop her own against his chest smirking. Eyes dancing behind his glasses as he peaked over the rim at her.
"Most art, I just think I'm the hottest."
Across the room Sharpie buried his face under his paws stifling the desire to groan in agony.

Amphi was having a hard time thinking about what Sharpie was saying compared to what was going on in the chair she was currently sharing with the Pyromancer.
Her head turned as she looked at the Kitten before shyly smiling. "That's good to know! Maybe If I come to visit Biskoto again...or we see each other again, I will bring a treat like that?" Being a mermaid, she didn't really mind land creatures being devoured to predators. Life was life and that was the circle of life. She'd rather treat Sharpie then worry about capturing some small rodents or something. "Your very sweet..." She smiled shyly again at the Ink cat.
"Old Lando?" She looked again to the Reaper before frowning. It wasn't waters or...rather a swamp she heard of. She wondered just though how nice it was. Doubt showed in her eyes only a little at the thought of homes in Swamps but...she was a spoiled sea creature.
"What are these spires? Cliffs?" She hadn't seen land masses or structures besides that of the school here and the horsemen's homes. "Are they like the tall coral Reefs of the Sea?" She liked the colorful rise of coral in the seas, very pretty to-
Her eyes instantly zoomed in on his hand over on hers touching his bare chest. It was like a bad...bad romance scene. Fire light flickered in the room, dancing shadows on said very broad, very warm and very bare chest. Though if Amphi was a heroine like a Romance novel, she would be licking her lips and thinking -"I'd tap that..."
"Hottest?" She blinked again, her throat suddenly very dry, There was no doubt in her mind that he was indeed...Hot. At this point, she decided that there was some sort of...awareness going through her though. Hesitantly, she tugged at her hand under his, slipping it away. Next came moving off. With a small wiggle on his lap, she flushed trying to think of what she was doing there in the first place...
OH RIGHT.
"But...How does one warm the other up? If your heat is internal? Do you have to remain in contact with.....you?" She flushed. Did that mean they had to be INTIMATE TO BE WARM?!?!
Her face returned to full born red and her hands covered them. "Oh my jack, I didn't....I didn't realize that you had to...."
What!?!? What was she going on about?!?

Sharpie let out a series of delighted purrs at the promise of treats rolling onto his back beside the fire happily, watching the two scarelings talk shifting from face pawing, to watching over and over through out the conversation.
"Yes, Old Lando are some of the ruins being consumed by the swamp, New Lando is made of marble stone and ivory towers twisting to the sky's Everything seems to glow and shimmer in that city over looking the rest of the area." He paused at her question about cliff's and shrugged, "Do tall coral reefs run along the ground before dropping off a ledge that leads down to another place?"
If this was a romance novel not only would she be thinking 'I'd tap that' odds are they already would be and Sharpie would be tossed in the closet forbidden to comment on the scenes.
Sadly she wiggled off his lap staring at him in an adorably confused fear. He actually let out a chuckle as she started to panic, "No no no, you don't have to be that kind of close." He stood up slowly moving over to her wrapping his arms around her waist tugging her into a hug, tipping his forehead to rest against her's heat radiating off being so close to him.
"A simple hug is enough to suffice."
A simple hug, with a bare chested reaper. Nothing to see here folks, nothing at all.

Amphi eyed False as he explained his home, her eyes shifted from wary to intriqued in mere seconds as he described tall towers of marble and Ivory. Of Ruins that would be broken and scattered through the swamp.
It sounded beautiful. Like the lost city of Alantis on the ocean floor. Her favorite place to visit in that broken landmark was the humans concreted towers. Some were made of the marble...some made of stone she didn't know. When the light filtered through the ocean, it made it gorgeous.
She wondered if the Landwalkers had light to filter on the ruins to make it pretty as well. "They do, though....Ah." Now she understood Cliffs, Though landwalkers couldn't swim down there cliffs. She cocked her head again. "Your home sounds lovely. One day..." She smiled shyly, "One day I will have to visit there. My sisters have seen much of the land....and I not so much." Except the Horsemen's homes, which was all she had seen.
Focusing back on the fact that she had made it safely off his lap, he gave her reassurance that she would not in fact have to be intimate with the Reaper. It wasn't like he wasn't appealing but....she...could never do those kind of things.
She blinked though as he stood up, wrapping toned arms around her waist to pull her into a hug. Her feet dangled a bit as she flushed again.
"Fa...False, I can't...your..." She squeaked out, wriggling in his arms...a lot. Every wiggle had her body pressing into his and then pulling teasingly away. But hugging wasn't bad, and that's all it took for her to feel that same heat she wondered about.
He rested his forehead to hers which had her mildly stop her wiggling escape and stiffen. He was in fact very warm...
But was it because of his body or the fact that Amphi had blood pooling to her skin?
She waited a beat, her eyes never leaving his as her arms wrapped around his neck and she....returned his hug.
"Um..." She ducked her head in his shoulder....and tried not to think of bareness and....She had never hugged a NAKED REAPER OMG. No it was just a hug. HUGS WERE SIMPLE THINGS. It wasn't like her whole body wasn't tingling from some kinda of awareness. Awareness that she wasn't sure what to do with...."Your....very....very warm."
This was not like hugging Lizzy or Xiu or Sparrow or.........
