"As do we." he responded closing his eyes. He thought for a moment or two before opening the crimson lights in her direction. "What if we could stay at peace, like this, forever?" he asked softly. It wasn't often he even thought of things like...peace anymore. Happiness, no. None of that stuff ever crossed his mind nowadays. But..lately. Especially around her, it didn't seem so far fetched.

She smiled very brightly, though not for the reason he would likely be anticipating. That would become very obvious the instant she spoke. "I think that would be lovely, if that was truly what would make you happy! There would be many changes with how you interact with others, it would bring many experiences to you that would not be possible otherwise! Oh, I can imagine now! Though .. others may laugh or even mock you. I know you would not stand for that, though, and believe me when I say I would not either!" she finished with a bit of a stern tone though was still very bright and cheerful with this revelation.

Yawgmoth just shook his head back and forth. "We meant between the two of us. We give little thought to the others." he corrected. In fact, even if they stayed at peace which in his mind meant being with one another, this still wouldn't change how he felt towards the others. Which would definitely pose an issue. Blinking slightly he simply awaited her response.

She paused. "Oh .. again where we are two sides of the coin. I cannot decide without giving thoughts to others. Though if I am to focus .." she said softly. These thoughts were pretty big for her and she decided that sitting would be a good idea. Moving back to her chair, she politely sat and thought a little longer. Finally she looked to him again with a shy smile. By this point of their friendship, he would likely anticipate the self depreciating comments that would be coming next. "The initial sex would likely be quite exciting for the both of us if we are to continue with a romantic relationship. Though, after time .. as I like the variety of learning and teaching while living and loving .. eventually I would become boring to you." It was to be expected that his next comment would be asking her more of what she would actually feel and her opinion in her own words, rather than her gloomy prediction of what would be their future together.

Yawgmoth simply started to laugh and shook his head back and forth standing up grabbing his wine glass. Oh he was definitely going to need more to drink. "See, we thought so too." he said walking towards the kitchen area though still visible for the most part. He continued speaking back to her. "We thought for the longest time, something like 'yeah we'd ******** her a couple times and then be done with it because it'd get old really fast and onto the next piece of a**'. That's been our mode of thinking about women for quite some time. But there do exist a few exceptions. Crow was one. We believe you fall into the same category she did. Someone we wouldn't go tired of being around." he said as he finished filling his glass though he snapped it back down drinking it quickly and filled it up again before walking back out.
"There are few creatures we get along with. And even fewer who we actually care about. If we didn't care about you, if we didn't care about our friendship, we would've ravaged you a long long time ago. We're sure you're acutely aware of such a fact. As we have reminded you several times. The thing you must remember is that if someone who's seen and done as much as we have still finds you interesting after all this time, there must be something special there to keep him looking in your direction. Wouldn't you agree?" he inquired sitting back down in his chair, leaning forward and resting his chin in his hands gazing over to her with that familiar crimson stare.

She looked positively dreadful for a moment, looking to him with deep sadness and shame before dropping her gaze. She did not know what else to do, she spilled her guts to him.
"I love Hunter. I love the idea of being with him. I love how I feel around him. I love how I make him feel. I cannot stand that he is never around. That even now, when we have known each other and loved each other for nearly a year, it is like our love is reborn each time we meet. I admit, I have been holding on to him not only because of these reasons but because I knew what would happen if he were no longer in my life. Three people who I care for very much, who I love truly, want more than I wish to give them." she paused in her talking.
Still her eyes were watching the floor, a sign of great shame and embarrassment from her, there were few times that she would behave this way, fewer yet that she would maintain this sort of posture and behavior for such a long time. "Hunter has been my shield from everyone to avoid this very moment. Holding on to a love that cannot flourish because it is so strained and separated by time and distance." she said softly.
Though she still looked awful, clearly on the verge of tears, she looked up to him at last, her eyes full of emotion, a small smile on her lips only for the fact that if she had not this smile, she would be crying. "I know I am a fool for this and you are welcome to tell me so. This situation .. these emotions .. the knowledge of what to do .. it is beyond my grasp. To see someone, to have something that I wish to cling to and protect with every fiber of my being is beyond my grasp, beyond my control. So long I have waited for this. Fitting that it was not truly mine to have, I suppose." she said softly, lowering her head again.

Yawgmoth lowered his head and took a deep breath. Sitting his glass back down he stood up and walked over to her chair kneeling beside it he reached up to place his warm tan skinned hand on her closest cheek. "No, we're not going to tell you you're a fool anymore." he began gently.
"The sad truth of the state of this place is this. Everyone, and we mean everyone desires to have you for their own. We're no different but this has been true since we met you. However, this.....this pull between all these different people contradicts your very personality. You want to make everyone happy. You don't want to hurt your friends. You most likely feel that if you abandoned your shield, Hunter, that you'd have to pick someone. And everyone you didn't pick would fill with rage, anger at your choice." he spoke in a softer tone than he was used to using. Being comforting, or trying to be just wasn't something he was used to doing if he ever did it at all.
"Unfortunately, as much as we would love to be able to help you, as much as we would love to tell you what to do, what step to take next we can't. Because the truth my dear is this, no one wins. If you abandon hunter and go with us, this will likely enrage everyone. If you abandon hunter and go with Seisuke, this will upset the others too. We know of no other suitors but if there are, and you pick them, it still upsets those you didn't. There is no easy way out of this, and for that, we're sorry. Sorry more so that we can't help you make a choice." he finished lowering his gaze brushing his hand from her cheek. Standing up slowly his eyes moved down, the bangs on his head draped down in front of the crimson hue making it seem to shimmer as his tall form looked down at her sitting.
"We will offer you this, as much as it may pain us to say it. We treasure our friendship enough to support whichever choice you make. Even if it isn't us. We're not sure how much that will help ease the pain of making the choice, if it will at all. But it will be one less friend you have to worry about disappointing. And perhaps, perhaps that will aid you in some way we're not sure of yet." he sighed and turned to walk back to his chair to sit down. If he was wrong, which he was sure he wasn't, then she could tell him off for having no idea what he was talking about.

Yawgmoth would not make even one step, let alone getting back to his chair. Not alone, that is. The moment he finished speaking, Ziven stood and literally jumped on him, lightly, wrapping her left arm around his neck and shoulders, her right elbow leaning against one shoulder as her right hand gently brushed up against his neck for a moment as her fingertips disappeared in his hair. This would likely be the first, honest from the heart, affection he would have felt from her that was more than just a simple hug, hand shake or kind look. "Thank you." she said softly, these simple words full of her emotions, which were being further expressed by a gentile breeze moving about them, pushing and pulling at their clothes, gently caressing their skin.

Yawgmoth was almost toppled over not because she was heavy like him but because he didn't expect it. His tail snapped down and curled against the ground to help support him. Wrapping his arms around her gently he kissed softly the top of her head. "You're welcome.." he replied gently. He was kind of confused as to why her sudden show of affection like this.

"I am so very relieved to hear such a thing from you." she said softly, still clinging to him dearly. She lifted her head a moment later, smiling, looking so much more her usual self, though the sadness she had been feeling was still slowly ebbing from her eyes. Not only because of the natural response of eyes becoming red when crying or nearly crying, but because she was still worried that this would not last. However, this moment was incredibly special to her for so many reasons and she felt that it should be handled with special care. There were no bargains, no deals, no catches from either of them. In this moment, she knew with all her heart she wanted to show him her care and affection towards him. Pausing, she did not truly know if it would be acceptable, but she took that chance, slowly moving her lips closer to his, kissing him sweetly. This time would be different, a feeling that only two before him had felt. As their lips touched, a wave of magic and emotions would be felt by him, calming and sensual, very different than the whirlwind of magic emotions that could be felt floating about her so often. This lasted for a few moments before she looked to him again with a happy smile, her eyes showing a satisfied joy now also, before leaning her head against him again, still holding him gently.

The Dark Titan couldn't really get a word in before she kissed him. As the wave of magic crashed over his crimson eyes closed to enjoy the moment. His arms that held her unconsciously pulled her body in closer. When the kiss ended Yawgmoth opened his eyes slowly and blinked. He was dumbfounded and could only say "What you said was true...your emotions really do influence everything about you and your abilities." he responded still in kind of disbelief that that'd just happened. He laid his head ontop of hers softly but a sudden pain caused him to chuckle slightly. "Not to break this moment, really we love it and all. But since you pounced us our tail is kind of holding us steady right now and its starting to ache. You don't think you could let the two of us re-situate ourselves to be more comfortable?" he asked nervously slightly laughing about the whole situation but as much as he'd love to keep holding her and what not, his tail was starting to feel the pressure of supporting his near 300 pound frame AND her at the same time.

"Oh! My apologies!" she said with a shy smile, her cheeks going quite pink, having not thought at all about his comfort. Slowly she released him so she could stand on her own again. She was smiling still, almost so brightly that her eyes appeared to be closed, the fingers of her right hand trailing through her hair with a nervous movement, her left gently resting across her abdomen, the fingertip of her index finger gently tracing the line of her bodice there.
"My passion for the moment was dictating my actions instead of my mind as normal. I did not realize this was causing discomfort." she said softly, bobbing her head respectfully before seating herself on her own chair again, believing he meant they should sit separately for a bit. Though, the moment she sat, she realized he may have meant they should continue holding each other. Figuring that she would know the answer to this soon enough, she spoke to his first comment now.
"Yes, very true, my feelings and the flow of magic within me change greatly when I am full of the emotion. Master has said that magic is my soul." she said softly, still looking a bit shy yet very pleased.

He shook his head and held his hand up to show her that it was ok. "No no. We realize that. We also know that passion is the reason we didn't feel any of the pain until your lips left ours." he said with a cocky grin. His tail slipped around front and waved at her gently before slithering back behind him. "But we have to admit. You caught us quite off guard there little lady. In both jumping on us and in kissing us. We damn sure didn't expect either. But they were...how shall we put this...more than welcome surprises." he replied with a gentle smile. Yawgmoth's hand waved forth and the scenery around them changed slightly. Removing the table since neither of them seemed to be eating and changing her chair into a love seat, a chair for two. His tail poked the empty cushion. "May we take this seat?" he asked, making sure she wanted to sit together and do whatever it was people did after eating. Cuddling he guessed...bah how he hated that. But...with her it wasn't so bad.

Wide blue eyes looked around with pleased surprise to see the change of scenery. She smiled brightly, still looking shy yet happy to be there. When he asked to sit, she replied softly, beginning first with a giggle. "Yes of course! This is your place after all, if anyone should be asking, it should be me!" she said cheerfully, wiggling herself a bit to make sure she was properly centered on the cushion so he could sit comfortably. "I like the small couches like this one, they are delightful for just two. A full size couch can feel very large if one is not lying upon it. Do you agree?" she asked softly. She had seen this sort of love seat in the bar, but she did not know that was what it was called.

Determined to embarrass her further he couldn't help but comment as he sat down "My my don't you look adorable when you're so timid and shy." he said winking playfully upon seating himself. Moving a little so that his tail could coil around one side, the side towards her of course. Deciding to take the risky move the third arm ninja'd its way around her back and curved round her hip that was furthest away and gently tugged her towards his side. "Yes, we do agree. That's why we made one this size. If need something bigger we can accommodate. But we figured this would do for now hmm?" he asked to make sure she was fine with this setup for now.
