Welcome to Gaia! ::

::Turning about, Deity finds the couch against the entryway wall to the immediate right of the entrance, letting his knees loosen and allow him to fall back into the seat. The tall wolfen demon is hardly able to get his rear end into the cushion before Satomi's figure is framed within the doorway of the Lounge. He quickly plants his palms into the cushion, pushing himself hastily back into a standing position and looking directly at her.

There's a temporal pause, the Tonepian's face reddening; he certainly hopped back up to his feet rather quickly. Luckily the midnight scarf around his neck and face hides the blush, which soon begins to fade as he acknowledges the fair girl's arrival. Indeed, he hasn't seen her in so long, and before that, even longer still. It makes the taste of their meeting now that much sweeter.

Lifting his left hand, abnormally blackened fingernails adorning each fingertip, he tugs down his own black cape, loosening it and tucking the fabric underneath his jaw. Still, he so resembles the devil he has grown to regard with pure fear since his knowledge of it. All the more reason to regain whatever shred of humanity he has managed to preserve over the centuries.

Turning to the left and taking a few steps closer to Satomi, his hands once again finding the pockets of his jeans, he presents his attempt at a casual posture, leaning against the same side of the doorframe as the girl, except more or less against the wall. His face remains somewhat blank for a few moments as his vermillion eyes graze over her, again taking note of the instinctive position of her arms, always around her abdomen now. He takes but a moment longer before he replies just as quietly as ever; Deity never seems to think ahead on what to say::

....Sato...it's good to see you...

<< xD >>

::As the girl lifts her arms up and leans into the much taller Deity, he blinks a few times, lifting his hands from his pockets in what could be described as surprise. His lips part as he starts to speak, hardly a breath escaping his mouth before he opts not to. Her powerful emotions hit him like a wrecking ball through a building, relieving him of his confusion.

Without hesitation, he uses his left leg to push himself upright from the wall, bending his knees and spine gently and curling his arms gently around her mid back in a tender embrace. His red eyes shut as he leans his head down over her right shoulder, returning her tightening hold with his own slender arms, made somewhat more sharply featured due to his current form. His grey-shaded tail appears to simply fall dead behind him, relaxed as it droops lifelessly.

Taking in a deep breath through his nose and releasing it slowly through his parting lips, he struggles for a moment to find what he should say. He hardly finds Satomi to blame for the ordeal. Even her wicked uncle, Idrael, is absolved in Deity's eyes. The Orinian human-turned-devil has come to believe he himself is to blame, for simply allowing himself to be pulled into this entire situation. Here he is, submitting once more.

Before these thoughts evolve into anything more, Deity squeezes his eyes shut tighter, shoving them away. After a few moments - that, to the boy, feel like days - he begins to loosen his grip around Satomi, still unsure of what he can say to her. He knows he has missed her, but little else has found its way into the realm of his mind.::

::The tall Orinian's arms completely fall away after Satomi begins to move back from him, his nose silently releasing another deep exhalation. He watches her getting comfortable on the couch, and in a sense, her lower position seems to make him feel a little too tall. Not one to make her look up at him the entire time, he takes a step closer to the couch she's occupied, dropping slowly to his knees before settling back on his bottom, taking a seat on the plush red carpet floor.

He pulls his knees up, hanging his arms loosely around his calves and catching his left wrist with his right hand. He listens to her soft voice as she speaks to him, his position mostly in her line of sight, nearby the side of the sofa. He pauses for a few seconds after she concludes, bathed in the silence that now tends to surround him at all times.::

....you're doing well enough, Satomi...

::His eyes hidden from the canvas of his expression, his smile indicates a friendly, joking manner in his words, a soft giggle rippling through his shoulders. He has so much he would like to ask the girl about - to the point at which it's all just a blur in his head - but another thought is beginning to scratch at the back of his mind. It's getting late, and it's surprising enough that the boy should find Sato here in the first place.

Usually, when he returns home, the place more silent than a graveyard, but this time she was here to greet him. Even at the risk of not seeing her for an even greater length of time, Deity doesn't wish to keep her long.::

....Deity would ask...about what's been happening, but it...uhm....it seems late...

((A MESSAGE TO ALL OF MY CO FRIENDS!!
I finally have my internet back, on a permenant basis!! Yay! So no more having my net cut out on me in the middle of conversations or RPing. whee But alas, what comes with the return of the internet is also a lot of school work, as I only have two more weeks until finals come up for school. So even with my internet back up and running, I must do my best to resist going on all the time. I have to get my homework done. THis also means that I most likely won't be on AIM or MSN, if at all. Unless I get a lot of my work done fast, which would make me feel good. Plus, I also just got a job, so that shall be taking away from net time as well. I'll try and get some work done fast so I can make a return here. I miss you all!! *huggleluffleclingsglompsandrapesthosewhoapplyforit* 4laugh xd whee heart Ta Ta for now!!!

PS: Yes, I'm still taking part in the tournament, I just need to arrange a time with my opponent. ninja ))
