"......." It wasn't often Phoenix was thrown into speechlessness, but at this moment, that was exactly what was happening. She couldn't think of the words to say, anything she said to her would only hurt her more. It went on for quite some time, enough that Alisa would know she fell speechless, which probably wouldn't make her feel any better, ether..."I..can't answer that. No, I'm sorry...I can't. Everything I say only hurts you more, I can't answer that...." Leaving it like that was as good as she could make it, it would leave the question looming, but it wouldn't be certain, who knew what she would feel? She clearly had no intention of answering. "...."

Alisa "..." For every moment that passed with no response from Phoenix, Alisa... grew more agitated. It was something she would deeply regret later, but right now, in this emotional moment, she felt as though Phoenix OWED her an answer. As though it was the very least she could do. This was also, of course, unfair to Phoenix, but in the heat of the moment, Alisa couldn't shake this feeling of entitlement. As though Phoenix owed her anything just because she had hurt her. That wasn't how this worked, and Alisa KNEW that, but in this moment... it didn't matter to her. She was so emotional.
And so, when the answer finally came without an answer, the princess sat there for several moments, silently. ...Anger was building in her. Anger she would regret later. She gritted her teeth, trying to keep herself restrained...
But she failed.
Standing abruptly, Alisa turned, circling the tree swiftly. Phoenix would feel the collar of her shirt grabbed roughly by two hands, and Alisa lifted her up and off her feet, pushing her back against the tree. Given she was quite a good bit taller than Phoenix, and Phoenix was very light, it was rather easy. The look she gave her was one of pure anger and sadness, the tearstains clear on her cheeks. It was a look Phoenix would never have seen from her before. Even after her father was killed, she mostly kept her emotions to herself. She was good at keeping things bottled up, but here, in this situation, after running away and being chased given what had happened... she was no longer able to conceal it. "Answer me!!!" She shouted with angry, narrowed eyes, pushing her back further against the tree. Yeah... this probably wasn't getting Alisa any points, unless Phoenix liked to be pushed around, maybe. But that no longer mattered. Alisa just... had to demand this answer. (( OOC: ))

Phoenix's crimson eyes darted to the side, but Alisa had completely surprised her this time, she was in front of her before she knew it, her hands grabbing a hold of the collar of her shirt and surprisingly lifting her up off her feet, and into the tree. She had never seen Alisa like this, in all the years they've known each other, she never seen her with this much anger, and sadness in her eyes. Could Phoenix be angry with her right now? She clearly didn't put up any fight or resistance, she would rather not hurt her again.".....Why does it matter?! Why do you need to know this? No matter what I say, I just hurt you more...and I don't mean to..." Her eyes never left Alisa's, and the guilty feeling in her own mind was just growing stronger. "..We've been friends. Since we were kids. On that level of friendship..." She paused, god, she really didn't want to do this.. "....If you were...a man, I would...probably...Probably! T-There's no telling. If you were a man, and we grew up together...that you would of felt as you do now..So why ask me such a question?? Why is friendship so bad? "

Alisa"Just answer the damn question!" Alisa said through gritted teeth. She knew that, no matter the answer, it wouldn't make her feel better. But.... she had to know the answer. She had to know.
...And finally, the cute red-haired princess answered her inquiry. "..." And, as expected, it certainly didn't make her feel better. But she knew it wouldn't. How could it? Nothing made her feel better. She was pretty much at a universal low point here. "..." Alisa placed her back on her feet, letting go of her shirt. "I would have fallen for you." She said without a hint of uncertainty in her voice. "It wouldn't matter to me if we were both women, both men, or whatever combination... I would have always loved you. Phoenix is Phoenix... I don't care what's between your legs. I know I would have loved you. I love you for who you are. Not what you are." Her voice sounded so distant, yet her words were entirely genuine. She knew this was a lost cause, but she couldn't help pitching her feelings anyway. If not now, when? ...But it was all for naught. She knew that. And she knew she would only continue to make Phoenix uncomfortable by talking about it. It's just as she had said while poisoned--Phoenix always cared about her for who she was, not what she was. The love she felt for her was the same. "Man, woman, princess, commoner, Serenitian, Reaper, good, evil... I don't care. You're who you are. And that's who I love." After staring directly into her eyes while she poured her heart out, and a brief pause arose between them, Alisa finally averted her gaze. "But it doesn't matter..." After another short pause, she finally walked past her, kneeling down to take hold of her arrow. She just needed to be alone... but of course, in all her emotion, the link between the two arrows was severed. She closed her eyes, attempting to speed up the linking once again while also fighting back her emotions. She had cried too much already--it was getting pathetic, she felt. What if her mother saw her like this? Crying over unrequited love from another Serenitian princess... how much more could she disgrace herself before the day was over?(( OOC: ))

Phoenix cringed a little, she really was not used to being on the receiving end of Alisa's directed anger, it just didn't feel right. She didn't want to see her best friend like this, yet she couldn't erase what just happened between them. "....I'm sorry." She couldn't really say it enough, and it probably wasn't what Alisa wanted to hear right now, ether. With every word that followed next, her guilt only raised and her heart sank. Phoenix could deal with physical pain well enough, but this kind? The pain in her heart was going to eat her at her for a long while to come. Further silence came from the crimson-haired princess, what could she say? Nothing. It was probably better not to, repeat sorry several more times? Say she didn't love her like that? ...Yeah. Silence was her only logical option. All she could do was look down, as she slid back against the tree while Alisa worked with her magic arrow, she wouldn't stop her, and this time, she wouldn't chase her..

Aeon It was, ironically, only moments after Alisa finally dropped into her portal, and the portal closed, that someone else would appear... right there, where Alisa had been moments before. Talk about just missing each other. "Stupid b***h," Aeon muttered to himself, removing his torn up shirt and putting it down beside himself. The slash marks left by Ein didn't really hurt THAT badly--he was pretty tough. Though the fire didn't feel great. That was one of his weaknesses... ironically...
Much like his older sister, he wasn't the best at healing. And his practice of healing magic had, shockingly, not progressed ever since he became the thing Serenitians hated and feared most. No, ever since then, he only cared about building his strength. So for now, he could just cover the wounds and wait for them to heal naturally. Being a Reaper at least sped up his recovery time, so it wouldn't put him out of commission for very long...
Landing with a hard thud, Gungnir's attention shot to the red-haired, sad looking Serenitian princess, growling lowly. "Shut," Aeon began. "the ******** up." Apparently, Aeon hadn't noticed Phoenix. Gungnir responded with a whiny, complaining sounding wail. "Well ********. She's not your friend." That wail was about Teresa, and how he wanted to keep hanging out with her. Because they hung out so much already! Though Phoenix wouldn't understand Gungnir. Only Aeon really could. Gungnir, having assessed Phoenix as not being a threat after closer evaluation, decided he didn't really care about alerting Aeon to her presence, walking around the tree to Aeon. He let out a questioning growl. "No, I don't want you to lick my wounds, you disgusting mutt." Gungnir let out a sad noise, clearly upset he couldn't do anything to help. "Quit your stupid crying. Just go terrorize a village or something. That'll make you feel better." Gungnir tilted his head, confused. "Oh wait, I forgot, I happened to befriend the most pathetic wyvern who ever existed." Gungnir lifted his head, looking almost as though he were beaming, as if saying, "but you still love me!" to which Aeon shook his head. "If I get hungry, I'll make you into wyvern stew, and only then will I be happy about your existence." These two really made quite the pair, didn't they.(( OOC: ))

Phoenix lifted her head slightly, her crimson red eyes shooting to the large Wyvern as it so suddenly, and out of no where it seemed, came down with a noisy thud to the ground. She was hardly paying attention to have seen it come from above the single lone tree. Her eyes remained set on it, though she made no move against it, she didn't really move a muscle at all! If it wanted to attack her, it probably would have by now. So why worry? But that wasn't what concerned her, it was the mix of a familiar, yet strangely alarming presence. "......." Slowly, quietly getting herself to her feet, she kept close against the tree, stepping a little to the side, so that she could peer around it's side, and to the young elf prince.
She hadn't seen him in years, and only just found out about his ..change. What she didn't know of, was his terrible ways, he was hardly the same boy she knew as kids. "........Hello....Aeon. " She said slowly, maybe it was time someone surprised him with their unknown presence. "She already left.." He may not know what she was talking about, of course, she assumed he came for Alisa, perhaps he felt her emotions, and came to see that she was alright? ....If she only really knew..
Coming around the tree now, Phoenix stopped a few feet away from him, so that she could better see his face. It was pretty shaded and dark, so she didn't quite see as well from her earlier spot.
What she saw, was just a whole lot of worrisome things at once. First, something was wrong with his eye, covered in a black patch, and his chest covered in fresh slashes! "...What happened to you?! " She tried to ignore the fact that his chest was completely bare now, and stepped even closer to him. "You idiot...First you turn into a Reaper, and now you get yourself hurt like this..Since when did you become so weak?! " Phoenix was so comforting. "Stand still.." She said seriously, giving him a small glare as if to say he BETTER listen. "I'm not Unisha, but I can still heal well enough. " And so, she started to raise her hands. As her palms got closer to his chest, her face started to reach a new, rare shade of red. What was with her? It was just a healing job, nothing to it. ".....What did this to you? " She finally asked, if she could just focus her mind on conversation and healing, this would be a lot easier while she began to heal his wounds, he may even feel the warmth of her healing was a little more intense then most healers, likely do to the fact that her body was just naturally always very warm, and radiated that heat around her body.

AeonAeon's head jerked to the side as he heard someone's voice--someone who knew him, apparently. He was surprised he hadn't noticed anyone's presence, especially... hers. "...Phoenix." He certainly hadn't expected to see her today. "Still flat I see." He sure wasn't shy. "...But I still think you're hot, so maybe that says more about me than you." This was already much more of a conversation than he allowed Teresa to have with him. When they were kids, Aeon had always had a crush on Phoenix... ironically... so while his baser needs hadn't been met from Teresa, he was finding it hard to try to force himself on Phoenix. She'd also probably be harder prey, but that would make it more fun for him, in theory. But... "...Who?" He certainly hadn't come for Alisa. He didn't care about her at all anymore. "I just assumed no one was here."
He sighed as she freaked out a bit at seeing his wounds. "A mosquito bit me a few times." He said sarcastically. "Would you like to test how weak I am?" He said challengingly. ...Then came her command, along with her glare. ...And for the first time in a very long time, some color came to his face. "...Whatever." He said while turning his gaze away, but complying. Why was her pushiness so hot? Maybe those feelings he had as a boy weren't as long gone as he assumed. He did notice how much more nervous she was getting though. Why? ...Oh, right. He was shirtless, and she was a virgin. And he had a pretty great body given how strong he was. "Isn't there anything else you'd rather talk about? ...Or do." His hands come up, grabbing her by the wrists and pulling so her hands would be forced against his well-toned torso. "You don't need to be shy." He said directly, moving his hands to her hips and pulling her so that she was straddling him. "Now, isn't that more comfortable?" A hand snaked its way up to the back of her hair, grabbing her by the head and forcing it forward, pulling her into a kiss. He kept his hand on the back of her head, fully controlling the situation. ...It would be so easy to force it to continue. That perhaps was his intention. Just... hold her down like he did with Teresa, but this time, no one would stop him.. ..But... he didn't. Not right now. Why was he hesitating so much? He felt like he wanted consent. Why?! He was a Reaper! And she was a Serenitian! "You know," he said, pulling her head back briefly. "I'm feeling self-conscious, being the only one here without their shirt on." ...He did not sound even a little self-conscious.(( OOC: ))

"Nice to see you too.." She muttered, shooting him a glare. That flat chest thing was soooo old! She heard it from multiple people already! "..Is that another joke? Because both have been used more times then I can count. " Her glaring intensified. Of course she thought he was making a joke about her ability to turn into the fiery-bird Phoenix. She played with that joke often herself! "...Oh, then...never mind.." Probably for the best he didn't know that information right now.
"..Aren't you funny. Nice to see you've developed some life in you! " He was kind of the distant one when they were kids, probably because he didn't want to play with a bunch of girls growing up. Though Phoenix did have her moments with him too, she was always the trouble maker, that part of her never quite died out! Who better to hang out with when she was looking for trouble? "Um, do you really want to make that challenge? I may be flat, but I won't be as flat as you'll become after I get through beating you. You will be the flat one on the ground, by my boot.." She said with a grin. A grin that would be wiped off her face in the next moment as he suddenly made the daring move to grab her hands! "Hey! Jerk..what do you think---?! " And that's just about as much as she would get to say, when her mind was brought into a new, heart-racing distraction. He dared to force her into such a position?! Phoenix wasn't one to find herself in such situations, mostly because she never expected this kind of behavior from Aeon, and that was all it took for him to think he could make these brave, inappropriate moves. His next move would really raise things, not to mention the heat. To be forced into a kiss like this, such a intense, heated kiss she couldn't pull herself away from? Did she really want to? ...It was Phoenix, surely she could do something to stop him from continuing this extremely. .hot..kiss, surly...And she was almost falling into returning it, when he pulled her head back again. Oh..to bad, he had to go and break it and say something stupid! "....Y-you'll be with a lot less after I turn you into a piece of toast. Tell me...! How do you like your healing?! Hot, or extra hot?! " She was glaring daggers at him at this point.
Had he not broken that kiss to run his mouth again, she might of fallen into a little more temptation then she would have wanted to. But that was all she needed to snap her out of the tranced-like state she was falling into. Desires were a pretty hard thing to resist. "....That's...it." She shook her head, trying to throw her most fierce, terrifying glare his way. Only, her red-covered face really didn't get the angry message clearly across. "..T-Think of that kiss..as...a greeting to an old friend..." That sounded rather silly. "But nothing more is going to happen. I may not be the proper princess, I may love trouble, and I may even be not easy to approach all the time, but I still have things I hold important to me. Like that kiss, and like what could happen because of it. " Her face was still very much red, it was hard to talk like this to anyone! Phoenix wasn't one to show that good side to her. "..I want my first real kiss to be for...that thing..you know...love.." Why did she feel so silly saying that? It just didn't suit her to talk about love like this!

Aeon"It's not a joke." Aeon said rather directly. He thought she was hot, and that was all there was to it. "I prefer smaller frames anyway." How totally lucky for Phoenix! Poor like poor Phoenix. Who wanted this guy to be attracted to them?
"Have you seen yourself? You're tiny. If we fought, I might break you in half. ...But yes. I do want to fight." The idea of seeing Phoenix beneath him, defeated and helpless... it was a quite enjoyable one. "What, you saying you'd step on me? That's cute, but I don't think you're strong enough to make promises like that." These two hadn't seen each other in quite a while, so he had no idea what she was capable of.
Then came the most enjoyable moment of the day so far. She was close to giving in to it, he figured, but unfortunately she wouldn't be so easy, it seemed. "It can't get much hotter than it already is, with you on me like this." Aeon had never really flirted before, he usually just skipped to the "fun" part. But it seemed with Phoenix, he was acting... unnatural. "Though if you want me to take more off, I don't mind." She did kinda say he would end up with less on.
"A greeting, huh..." Suddenly, he vanished away. ...And then a second or two later, he reappeared in the exact same spot. "Oh, good to see you again." And he pulled her into another, very similar kiss. What a charmer! ...He couldn't bring himself to try to force it to go any further, though, as he let the kiss end naturally. "Love... right. You still think that exists?" Man, he felt really comfortable under her like this. Usually when he was pressed against a girl, it was in a much different sort of position. "All it takes is the smallest thing, and the people closest to you can turn on you in an instant,. Take it from me, Phoenix... that s**t's fake." He hadn't been this real to someone in a conversation in a long time. This was obviously because the person he was closest to, his mother, had disowned and exiled him years ago... "You never really know someone. You may think you do, but I'm sure even you have been blindsided when you learned what someone really thinks about you. And then what happened? Did your "love" get stronger when you learned the truth, or did it rip you apart?" Quite the apt comparison, considering everything that had just happened with Alisa. "At least becoming a Reaper opened my eyes to the truth of that..." He shook his head. He felt pretty stupid even sitting here talking about it, but... he didn't know. Being around Phoenix, especially so close to her, it was hard for him not to talk to her. "I thought I loved you once. Guess I might as well say it. I had feelings for you for a long time. I figured one day we'd get married, and I knew Alisa would be happy to have you and that pink monster as sisters. But then what happened? Now I'm a Reaper. Now we exist so far apart. What did that love lead to? Nothing. Nothing except a bit of hurt right now. But hurt is about all I feel these days." He said those last words mostly to himself. Boy this guy was edgy. Also, did every elf in the Forest Kingdom have a thing for Phoenix or something? What were the odds Alisa and Aeon both had feelings for her? "You should just become a Reaper, too," Aeon said with a sigh. "Sure, Serenitians hate us. But at least we have fun. And you know, it isn't so bad."(( OOC: ))

"..That's one bonus then, isn't it. I guess that means you can't make fun of me anymore because of my size! " She crossed her arms, smirking at his next little insults. "You could ask the God I completely destroyed the other day. I can take you on any day, my cute Reaper friend." She just had to put it that way! He was a Reaper, and she still, despite all the years and his unpleasant attitude, considered him her friend.
It was hardly easy, resisting what her body seemed to clearly want to give in to, but she managed it well enough, after all, how could she call herself strong and a capable fighter if she couldn't resist even things like this? His next words, were not only shocking to her ears, but managed to just about match up her hair color, to her cheeks. She quickly turned away, of course. Because how weak of her to show her face fully red, at the teases of Aeon? "..Haha....that's...so funny! No.I'm quite comfortable like this, clothed. I wouldn't want to BURN your bare skin, now would I? " Obviously another joke, she didn't really burn anyone's skin just by touching them with her own bare body. ....Not that she ever tried that!
"...Huh?..." She blinked, staring at the empty spot he once was, only to slightly jump a bit when he reappeared as he did. "..!" She didn't get a word out before he pulled her back into another kiss so suddenly! It may of been brief, but he would not be the only one kissing this time around. Phoenix, despite what she said, couldn't stop herself from returning the kiss, and would let it play out until they both parted.. "..I do, I know that not all of us are so lucky to experience it, but I would like to believe it's out there, it may take time to find it, but it's definitely there.." Why did she feel so strongly about this? Because she had two loving parents, two parents who loved each other with all their hearts. Phoenix may not of acted like she was interested in such things, but the secret of her life was, she was, and she wanted to find the same, pure love her parents shared. Was it possible? It was hard to believe such a pure love even existed. As he went on to speak, some of what he said made her remember something..something that only really happened shortly ago, and something that felt exactly like those words. Tore them apart.
"....." Wow, there was something about these two Forest elfs, they had managed to make Phoenix feel pretty bad, even if that wasn't his intentions, she couldn't help it. "...Why didn't you say anything? Did you think I wouldn't feel the same way for you? Would it not of been worth it just to tell me? " She thought maybe Nero was just making that story up, but it seemed that story of Aeon having feelings for her was true. "...We don't have to be far apart, you know..Just because you're a Reaper, doesn't mean anything to me. You're still Aeon, you're still my friend, even if we haven't seen each other in years...I still consider you my childhood friend.." She shook her head with a small sigh. "Not all Serenitians hate every Reaper, you know..You exist. That's proof enouigh to me, that not all Reapers are so bad. "

Aeon"I wasn't making fun of you. Just an observation..." He did like that it got a rise out of her, though, so maybe he'd make fun of her about it later. Aeon liked her body type, so it would be pretty strange for him to actually insult her over it. More developed bodies were fine, too, but he had his preferences. "Uh huh. A god. You know, the other day, I actually arm-wrestled the ground myself. Yeah, all of the ground. Like, of all of the planet. Was pretty hard, but I won." It almost seemed like he didn't believe her! As her face turned deep red, and she looked away, she would feel his hand cup beneath her chin, forcing her face to turn back to look at him. "I prefer seeing your face like this directly." He was not shy, was he? Though, that was probably to be expected. It was cute to see her try to look away, but it was even more so to force her to look, and make her even more embarrassed. "Why not? Sounds like something fun to try." Sure, it could hurt, but that just made things more fun, didn't it? Yeah, she'd have a hard time trying to come up with some joke that wouldn't pique his interest even more. What a kinky Reaper. Which was almost like saying, what a blue midday sky.
Aeon sighed slightly as she spoke further about her belief in love. "Well, good for you. I'm glad your innocence isn't totally ********>" He didn't want to just sit here and argue with her about such an abstract topic. He didn't believe there was any such thing. He couldn't, after what he had been through. "Why? ...I was a boy with a crush. And you spent most of your time with Alisa. I just admired you. I figured if I said anything, you'd be creeped out." He didn't mind talking frankly about it now, because he had changed. He was certainly not the same elitist brat he had been back then. ...Well, not exactly, anyway. Having followed his mother's example in behavior mostly, he was rather offputting to most people, and he wouldn't have been surprised if Phoenix hated him back then. "Seemed like a lot of our conversations ended in arguments. I wasn't easy to be around back then." Yeah, because he was such a joy to be around now! "<********, you're comfortable." He sighed out, reaching his arms around her and pulling her closer to him while she continued to straddle him, so she would be pulled against his torso. When was the last time he had felt this sort of non-sexual intimacy? And this sort of intimacy... maybe it wouldn't make him hate himself afterwards. He let out a sigh, leaning his back against the tree as he held her so close. This might make her uncomfortable, but... well, he would stop if she wanted him to. "I've done a lot of ******** up things, Phoenix... you don't want a friend like me." If she knew the extent of it, she probably wouldn't be so fine with this little hug. But still... he felt like he needed this. At least for a bit. "I'm barely the Aeon you knew before. I feel like that part of myself died a long time ago. When Althesa did what she did. ...She was my best friend, you know. ..." It had been a long time since he had reflected out-loud with someone else. "But now I'm just driven by the need to kill her. That's all I am, now... she made me this way. She has to pay for it." He shook his head. "And the rest of those people. They all wanted me to ******** die, because I was the victim of a Reaper. Everyone who lived in the Forest Kingdom except my sisters, turning on me and demanding blood. I was a ******** kid.... The world will be better when I slaughter them all like ******** pigs." Needless to say, Aeon's ultimate goal was beyond twisted. What happened to Azura's kingdom, he had every intention of doing exactly that to the Forest Kingdom. The only ones he would spare would be his sisters. As long as they didn't get in his way.(( OOC: ))

"..You're full of nice surprises today, aren't you? " She didn't know how to respond very well, she wasn't prone to compliments or nicely said things directed at her, not until, well. Earlier, only to have nothing good to say to her in return. How was she even doing this right now? Breaking Alisa's heart, and now, only moments after she left, she was with Alisa's brother! It felt so wrong on so many levels, even if she had felt nothing in the way she wished for, it still felt terrible. Even more so, she was enjoying this..
"You don't believe me?! I'm not making it up. He was so rude.." But she didn't want to get into that right now! Recalling what he did to her was hardly her priority. As she began to blush, an affect Aeon seemed to have on her, she would find herself attempting to hide that silly blush away, only to feel his hand cup under her chin, turning her face to look right back at him. Gods, why couldn't she just stop blushing?! It was hardly helping her stop. Did he actually like to see her like this? Eventually, as he released her chin Phoenix could only hope that silly redness would just go away soon!
"I don't think innocence is the right word for me. " That just sounded like a weak girl, which she clearly was not! "....I only hung around her because I didn't have any other friends, and Alisa was always so nice to me and Unisha..We had fun, of course, but I wouldn't of minded to have gotten to play with you too. All of us together. I think that would have been a lot of fun. I still think that now, I...wish we could all be together again. All as friends as we were.." Especially with Alisa, who she feared would never want to see her again. Then came the moment she didn't expect, as he put his arms around her, and pulled her close to his body. Phoenix never moved off him, as she still seemed strangely comfortable straddling him, and now as she was pulled closer, just at the moment when her face was almost back to it's normal color, it became a softer shade of pink. He was comfortable like this, so maybe he wouldn't mind if she rested her head against him. Phoenix...doing something like this, it was hard to believe they were not a couple, with as adorable they would look to anyone else. She closed her eyes, actually trying to just enjoy the moment she had with him. While she couldn't bring herself to say it in words, Phoenix was comfortable in his arms like this. Such a feeling was completely new to her, who would ever of thought the one to make her feel this way would be Aeon? "...I don't care." Maybe she would, had she known exactly, but...it was hard to say, would she share that much to never want to talk to him again? To much him away? ..Such a thing was impossible for her to even think of. "No one's perfect, you know. And the perfect-wanna'be's are boring people anyway.." She said, listening to what he had to say next. "..Then its a good thing you're friends with me. You just need an amazing Phoenix to revive you.." A tiny joke, probably not really that funny! Especially not with what he had to say next, it really only made her further hate the Queen of the Forest Kingdom even more, and the people that lived there. How could a mother do that to her own son? How could the people turn on him in an instant, and on something he couldn't control."...Aeon...Why didn't you come find me? When you were going through all this...After you were hurt so badly by them. Do you think I would of judged you too...? " She really hoped not, but she had to know. "...." Phoenix tried not to think to much into what he had to say, he had a lot of anger stored up in his heart, for years..but she didn't think he would -really- try to actually kill his mother, or the people of his kingdom. Though they did deserve punishment, she could agree that much.."We could punish them.." She began to say, when she thought about it, she didn't really care for anyone other then Alisa and Athena. The rest of the people of the Forest Kingdom were very rude, distant and unpleasant to be around for even ten seconds. They certainly didn't like her a whole lot. "...They exiled you from your home...right? ..They took everything. So, what if we do the same to them? ...Instead of slaughter and death, we make them suffer. Without their precious kingdom, Althesa will have nothing left to rule, she would become nothing, and so would everyone else. " She almost couldn't believe she was saying this, but it WAS the better way to go around it, rather then seeing everyone die. "It would only take me seconds to light up that forest. If you let them escape, that's where their suffering will began. Let the entire kingdom burn to the ground, and those who once had everything, will no loner have anything left. "

Aeon"Do I believe you that you beat up a god? ...I'll have to get back to you on that one." Poor Phoenix would have a hard time convincing anyone of that! "You don't even look strong, no offense. I'm sure I could put you down in a few seconds." Funny he thought that, since he had a weakness to fire. Hard to imagine it would go quite so smoothly. As she was forced to look at him, red in the face as she was, he couldn't help but admire the sight he beheld. "It's taking a lot of self-restraint not to bite you right now. I've never wanted to Claim a Serenitian, but..." Well, Phoenix seemed to bring out a lot of uncommon sides to him, didn't she? It might be surprising he didn't care to enslave anyone before, but he was more the type to use and discard. He had never even remotely wanted to see a Serenitian on multiple occasions. ...Until now/ "You know, I think you'd look cute on a leash." Now he was probably just trying to mess with her. ...Or was he? This was Aeon...
"That's the only reason, huh? Yeah, Alisa isn't very fun to be around, so I don't blame you. I feel sorry for whoever she ends up confessing her sad, pathetic feelings for." How topical. Poor, poor Alisa. Oh well. "Well, things change." More things than he was aware of, even. As Phoenix was wondering if he would mind if she rested her head against him, she would feel a hand against the back of her head, as he practically forced her to do exactly that. Well, there was her answer. He had to constantly keep himself from his hands wandering beneath her clothes, but he did have some respect for her. ...Nobody else, really. But he'd rather not scare her off or irritate her into getting off of him. He was very comfortable like this. "Find you? We were kids. What would you have done? Ask your dad to let the exiled Reaper stay with you? I'm sure that would've gone well." Honestly, Eskallion may have let it happen if he knew Aeon wouldn't be a threat. He was a bit too nice. But then that would strain the relationship between the Central and Forest Kingdoms, and it was already rather strained. And even then, he wouldn't be accepted there, either. All the Serenitians would hate him, except Phoenix's family. No, the only place he could be accepted was exactly where he ended up. The Realm of the Reapers.
As she went on to explain her potential little plan, he listened to what she had to say. ...He certainly didn't expect that. He expected the usual "just forgive them" nonsense. Not a different way to make them suffer. "An interesting proposal..." He shook his head. "But my dear mother would prevent you. She might try to kill you. And there's no reason for you to involve yourself anyway. It's my problem, not yours." He couldn't just come out and say he didn't want her to get hurt. That would be too off-brand. "Even if you did succeed, it would alienate you from your own people. Everyone would know what you did. Serenitians can sense s**t like that. You'd just end up exactly like I had been. You may as well be a Reaper at that point..." he shook his head. "And you don't want that. You're happy as you are, aren't you? I'll handle this." The idea of Phoenix joining him was something that would make him teel less empty and alone, perhaps. But it would make her feel MORE empty and alone. The last thing he wanted was for her to have to go through what he went through. And was still going through. Why? Didn't he enjoy people's suffering? ...Perhaps not as much as he made people believe. (( OOC: ))

フェニックスの平静
"Haven't you ever heard of the expression, don't judge a book by it's cover? " She gave him a look."Do you want me to prove it to you right now? " Oh, why not. She could have a little fun with him too! It wouldn't be to difficult, since she was already straddling him! He would feel her strength, though, as she put her palms over his bare shoulders, gripping them as she kind of pushed him to the side, so that he would slide away from the back of the tree base, and collapse right there on his back against the ground. She remained in that straddle position, not quite realizing how it was starting to look! She kept her hold over him, instead, holding him down as her eyes looked down into his one red one. "This isn't enough to prove how strong I am, is it? Then...what about this.." She leaned down suddenly, not giving him a second to say even a single word before her lips were against his, and she now brought him into quite a 'hot' kiss! She would let it last as long as he let it, and only then would she release his shoulders, to sit back up, but not off of him. She would give him a second to reposition himself, if he so wanted to be back against the tree."...So? Do you believe me now? " She asked with an added playful smirk.
".. Coming from you, i'll just take that as a compliment. Besides, you don't need to do that to keep me around. You know how to find me, so from now on...don't hold back on looking for me this time.Do you..have a place? ...Other then the Realm of the Reapers..I can visit you, too.I don't want to lose you again, you know. " How strangely cute, how were they not a couple? Flirting, Kissing, holding each other....how?! "..I think the leash wouldn't last long, I would just burn it off. " She said with a grin.
What he said about Alisa and her confessing feelings, Phoenix kind of went silent, she probably just didn't have any insults, was what she hoped he thought. "..! " Oh, he did surprise her there. Was she wondering a little to loud?? Gosh, she'd never stop blushing in his presence, it seemed.Which was funny seeing as she was the one ho wanted to lay her head against him.
"...Um, yes? You know my dad, he's the nicest person ever. And knowing I wanted you to stay, he would definitely have accepted you. And if the people of Serenity had a problem with you, I would have made sure to change their minds! " Scaring them to death was the way to earn trust, yes, perfect plan, Phoenix! "Whatever the case....I would have looked for you endlessly and made sure you weren't alone.." What was happening here? Phoenix always had the attitude, she was hardly this soft, but ever since her time started with Aeon here, she was getting softer, and cuter by the minute. "You may of thought I didn't care about you then...but that isn't true..it's far from true. I liked you too..Over the years, I always thought about you, and I wondered where you went. I couldn't track your presence all these years, because it was masked by your changing to a Reaper. Had I known sooner..I could have found you, and I wouldn't of let you end up like this...hurt, and alone..I'm just, i'm sorry I wasn't there for you..when you needed me.."
As she went onto explain her plan, she looked at him seriously. "I'm not as weak as you think..I can handle her, and even if i can't, I want to try. She hurt you so much..do you really think I'd just walk away if I came face to face with her one day? I don't mind a challenge. " Phoenix shook her head, yeah, she may lose trust in Serenity, but..whatever? "I don't care what the people think. If they can't see what I'm trying to do, and why....then they are all cowards and I want nothing to do with them. My father and mother would still love me, they may not agree with what I want to do , but I don't think they would just abandon me like that..."
