Welcome to Gaia! ::

((I wanted to allow Radiance to post something before I post for her.. n.n;; ))

Radiance could only be shocked as the baby turned into a 19 year old woman who still wanted to marry Diablo. Then he disappeared with Eris as Zeru went to talk to Phebe. There wasn't much to do but be there for Sera and wait for Luci to come back.

((Sorry, but there's really nothing for Radiance to do... that and I just started an rp and I need to keep tabs with it))

((And Phebe?))

Diablo just enjoyed it to it's fullest for a moment before slowly ending the kiss and backing up. Removing his hand when he was moved far enough away. "Leave you wanting," he whispered, before walking towards the fight again. He needed to fight the other Devils to become stronger.

Zeru's heart sped up slightly to the closeness. "I wish I knew. I think that she may be in there. Like how I and Diablo can change into human disguises... So, is she in there?" he asked. His breathing was a little shallow and quick from the distance between thier faces and his heart's speed. He had gained a light blush.

Zeru smiled when she said form. It meant that she could go back, if she wished. He felt the kiss on his nose and raised an eyebrow, curious about her objective with that. Then she placed his hand on her chest. He pulled it away after it had been placed there, placing it back at his side. "I realize you are real, I wondered only if you could switch back, and it's good you can. You called her... you a form. Therefore you can switch back to that form if you wish. Now, about this teasing additude you have... why?" he asked bluntly, he wasn't the least bit turned on by her. Though the closeness had sped his heartbeat up, it was because he'd never been that close to a girl. As previously stated, he felt a different attraction... and unknown to him, it was a fatherly attraction. He wanted to teach her after understanding her. "Why do you use your body to try to manipulate men?" he asked, completing his previous question.

Zeru sighed, "Then you need to learn to control your hormones and give yourself some self-respect," he replied. She was as bad as Diablo. "Your body is more than a weapon... I'm going to stop there, I'm trying to preach to someone when I'm not perfect myself," he added, getting softer as he began admitting his own wrong.

He looked away for a moment, then crossed his arms and looked back in her eyes, with deathly seriousness. "I've killed many people in my past. I've wiped out an entire mall filled with people and smiled in delight afterwards. I use to revel in chaos and destruction... but you know about this pleasure. This satisfaction of power and getting what you want. But there's a problem with that statement... You don't," he explained, beginning to get real with her, trying to relate and show her what she misses out when she teases and taunts.

"You don't get what you want. You get a cheap, fake imitation and call it real. Fear and obedience... Something I wanted... Was my cover-up. What I wanted was respect and love... But who needs the real stuff, right? When you can have all you want in a moment from the bad route, who wants to take the longer good route? I wiped out humans and the other humans did whatever I said. I wanted respect, and I got a fake version of it. It was readily abundant..." he started, going into his past before he got to her.

"But I began to realize that what I was getting wasn't enough. I felt an emptiness. I was getting the birthday gift early... but there was no present inside..." he continued. "If you take the route you're on, you'll get lust and sex. You'll get eyes on you constantly from guys. Every man will turn his head to you, thinking of you undressed in thier bed. But... Is that what you want?" he asked seriously, his eyes squinting to look deeper into her. "Or are you like me... Do you want Love, real Love?" he emphasized the point of Love being different from Lust. "If you want empty, heartless, mechanical sex... and men that want you for your body, not your mind or values... men that don't care to hit you or abuse you because you're nothing but a toy to them... be my guest and continue down this road," he said, darkly serious. His eyes showed his knowledge of this reality. He'd spent enough time with Diablo to know this stuff down to the 't'. He then waited for her to digest and react, expecting something, though unsure of what.

Zeru closed his eyes... she wasn't getting it. He wanted her to be better than she was, but she just focused on the wrong part of his speech. He just shook his head and turned away from her, unable to think straight. She'd just completely blown him off... either she was unable to grow up, or she thought... she thought she was! Zeru had a eureka moment. "You think you're mature?" he asked her, still not turned towards her. He had a different tactic this time.
