PD with Ramiel

It wasn't all that often that Kaimana left home, after all he had to be ready for when Shiro arrived which could be at any time with the way that man's schedule worked. He glanced over at the little boy who was racing from side to side in a zig-zag pattern in front of him, making him smile. He really was a cute little thing, strange but cute, Shiro was sure to be displeased at him for taking in something that was a mix between an animal and a child, a pet and a baby. He didn't need either one since he had Shiro but he'd accepted the responsibility and he would go through the raising of the boy for as long as he was needed. He just had to make sure that Gemma stayed far from Shiro when the man was around and things should go swimmingly.

The boy who was trotted ahead, one who had the blood of a Nue running through his veins, was oblivious to the worries of the to pretty man that was walking behind him. He was to caught up in exploring, getting a look at everything around him, and all but purring every every little thing that moved. He was similar to a cat in the fact that he was rather curious about everything even going so far as the chase a few things here and there that he should likely have left alone but thus far it had turned out all right. The walk remained relatively peaceful for another block before Gemma suddenly gave pause, turning to sniff at the air. At the same moment Nagendra was flicking out his tongue to taste the air before both turned to race off in at a ninety degree angle. The sudden escape brought a gasp from Kaimana's lips and he was quickly giving chase.

Ramiel snarled violently, gnashing his teeth at his guardian angrily. Mercury's fingers -or at least what was left of them- were already covered in bandages and teeth marks, and the man was wary enough to pull his fingers back before the pointed baby teeth were able to get at his hand. Mercury growled back as best as he knew how, but that only seemed to make the other male even angrier, face contorted with a baseless rage. Mercury growled again, grabbing the boy by the back of his harness and snapping the leash onto it quickly, flapping his good wing as hard and distractingly as he could while he did so. Ramiel continued to thrash around as he was dragged outside, but after being tied up for a good hour, the toddler started to tire in the heat. Growling quietly to himself, he curled his long body into the small corner-space between the restaurant's wall and the dumpster, one of the only places he could find shade in the middle of the day, and glared at the passersby at the end of the alley. Stupid people. Bein' happy and... not tied up.

Gemma paused and both he and the snake tail looked around from side to side as they found the scent that was heavy in the air in the area but didn't quite seem to spot anyone right away. He gave a sound like a confused meow, head cocking to one side, ears laying back, and he generally looked uncertain. He'd of sworn that he he'd smelled something fun and interesting back here but... saw nothing. He gave the slightest of snorts from his nose as though he were trying to figure out if perhaps his nose was on the fritz, he might just have been imagining the interesting smell though if that were the case he was still imagining it since it was still in the air.

The Rayquaza certainly perked up once he caught sight of someone who actually seemed interesting; no less, interested in /him/. Like everyone in the world should be, just from a distance and without being completely and totally annoying. The antennae atop the boy's head swiveled in the direction of the odd-looking other child and he untwined from his place in the shade. He flinched at the sudden light when he moved out of the corner, drooping his eyelids against the sun and slithering toward the other male cautiously. He made a soft warning hiss under his breath, moving a bit closer, completely untrusting of this... this... whatever it was. But he was interesting. That was why he was unhappy that he reached the end of his tether not long after he got up, immediately getting in an all-out war with his leash and harness, clawing and biting and doing whatever he could to sever it. Of course, none of that was working.

Gemma's eyes got wide when the green being appeared forth from the shadows, his ears turning forward toward him, and he gave a toothy grin of delight. So that was it, that was had he'd smelled! He gave a purring sound, taking a couple steps forward toward the other boy that he wanted to make friends with... or at least had wanted to make friends with until he was suddenly clawing, biting, and flailing about in a manner that put the Nue on edge just a bit. He froze in place, shifted from side to side, then gave a soft and uncertain mewling sound. All the while the serpent that was his tail was lifted up, hood flared, hissing back at the thing it deemed as dangerous to the entirety of their shared body.

The boy was far too caught up in his own thrashing around to remember that the other male was there. By the time Ramiel actually did manage to turn his eyes back to the tiger-striped youngster, looking almost surprised when he did so, tail wrapped around the rope with a length of the very same in his mouth. Once again, he bared his fangs, particularly at the snake-tail of the other, untwisting himself from the leash and growling softly. He did not like that angry snakey-thing. It was like Mercury, or like Uncle Venus, but it was angry and small. His wings stood up, stretched out, trying to look scary, eyes twitching up to the boy's face, tail flicking. He didn't like this one. At least... no. No, he didn't like him.
