Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tex remained in his seat as he snatched a drink off a table, sniffing it slightly before shrugging and downing it quickly in order to shut off the purr or at least lower it a bit. He was having a slightly difficult time believing that Melody was acting like this, but after mentally checking through all of his ancient texts he'd read that even Enaia couldn't read, her actions reminded him of one of the stories he'd read about. It'd been labelled as a myth in the vampire kingdom, but it fit the way she was acting down to a science. He glanced at Melody who'd been making her rounds with the guys in her and seemed a bit closer to him than he'd realized she was. His tail flicked slightly before sliding around his leg a bit tighter than he'd intended. Would she try flirting with him? Would she even realize his presence or would she simply ignore him? He began running through the story in his head for the hundredth time a tad slower than he had earlier in order to see if he could find an answer.

"I didn't send him. He went on his own. Tex is a hard boy to tame unlike a stray puppy you find running around a city," Cheshire lied with a pout to his voice knowing that even she wouldn't be able to tell he was lying.

"Why would I care enough to insult you, Toby?" Cheshire retorted with a slight hiss. Even if he had insulted Toby, he wouldn't apologize. Toby and James had insulted Underland.

"I don't diss the canine race. Don't hate me 'cause I'm a beautiful kitty cat, Toby," Cheshire chuckled as he continued his walk around the house.

"Tex could've changed the location of where we were going and still ended up with her, Phancy Phantasia. Besides, he's half incubus. Games of lust are encoded throughout his DNA. I'm quite positive he's capable of avoiding that," Cheshire sighed in a frustrated tone as his ears flattened back against his head, his tail swishing in agitation.

Tex bit the inside of his lip as the soft purr that'd been slightly lowered went back up to a barely audible tone. He brushed a hair out of his face as his gaze met Melody's, his eyes a deep red with silver and hunter green mixed into it. He half-wanted to bite deeper into his lip, but refrained from doing so as the green in his eyes faded out and he slightly raised an eyebrow at her. Apparently she was confused on why he had no definitive scent. "Trying to find the perfect mate?" he asked in a hushed Russian accent, a flicker of a smile tugging at the corner of his lips. "An FYI; as for the six guys there that you've gathered, guy one has syphilis, guy two has two different kinds of STDs, guy three has twice as many STDs as guy two, guy four has about three different fiancees who know nothing of each other, guy five has a small best friend that would be inpleasurable to you, and guy six doesn't deliver due to bursting into tears before doing it. True facts."

{(I thought I mentioned that Tex is a compulsive liar... Oops.~ xD The STD things were lies he'd conjured up because he's between panic mode because his incubus side is taking over and protection mode.)}

"He'll do what he can?" Cheshire seemed to suggest rather than respond.

"Just trying to be nice. A lady as gorgeous and intelligent as yourself deserves something better than hoodlums and closet homosexuals at a bar," Tex responded as his tail tightened slightly around his leg almost making him wince. Almost. "But, I mean, whatever floats your boat. I was actually hoping I could get to know you a little better myself, considering I'm still quite sober unlike them."

Cheshire let out a soft growl as he felt James' presence move, vanishing before reappearing on James' bike. "Turn around, James. You were safer in the house with me. Tex is with Melody and they'll be fine," he hissed, inwardly happy he could do practically everything humanly and inhumanly possible.

"Fine. I'm changing things quite a bit then," Cheshire hissed, his bright purple eyes shifting into a dark red as brief glimpses of different people from fantasy stories started flickering in them. "Forgive me for this, James." He jumped back off of the bike appearing in front of the bike a second later stopping it completely in his neko form, his ears flattened back as his tail flicked behind him. He picked the bike up with one hand, shadowy hands crawling out of the bike and grabbing James to be sure he didn't fall off, as he started back towards the house with both the bike and James. His smile had faded into a darker more solemn expression as he walked onwards. It was the first time he'd shown his darker personality in public let alone someone he considered close.

"Why is the cat playing fetch when it's the dog's job, Toby?" Cheshire hissed as he re-entered the house, James thrown over his shoulder. It was apparent that he wasn't that mischievous cat that always wore a smile right now, but instead a more obvious relation to the Red Queen.
