On the other hand, Damien's satisfaction was only increasing as the quiet boil stares at him with a glare that was marred by rosy cheeks. Oh how delightful. At least he wouldn't be so scared about the foxfire contaminating his FEAR.
He did however slink an a friendly arm over Jove's shoulder and giving him a noogie, if only to break the stare. "Ah, no need to be grumpy about it Jove, puppy kisses are ok, really." He assured the other boil before tapping him on the nose. "Next time, try it on the lips." he said quietly and pointed at his own, to get the point across.
Out of all the books they had on the table, it was rather surprising there wasn't a Kissing for scarelings book in the library.

At the casual gesture, a little grumbling noise rumbled through Jove's body. It wasn't quite a growl, more like a murmur of disapproval. Is that what Demi thought that was? Just puppy kisses?
Jove gave him a suspicious glance. Kisses on the lips were even worse than cheek kisses, more intimate. And in his eyes, more unpleasant. He had never kissed anyone on the lips before, and he was pretty sure it was something he would never in his unlife even consider doing. But... He couldn't let Demi off thinking he was still just a childish puppy!
With a little growl, Jove quickly leaned forward and pressed his lips against the other boil's, a bit rougher than strictly necessary. But it was still a chaste kiss, and short too. Then he looked away, his cheeks glowing even brighter than before as he glanced around to make sure they were still alone in the library. Inwardly he was a little surprised, there was nothing inherently unpleasant about what he had just done, aside from having to do it to prove his point.

Damien didn't even have time to yelp or scream out Nuk's catchphrase of No homo before he got assaulted by fluffy Jove and his lips. To be honest, he didn't really expect Jove to get so bold to do such a thing, he was after all the hounds innocent little buddy. How would he be able to give the foxfire innocent little headpats now after this?
The book that the hound was desperately clutching too, fell out from numb fingers to the table in a thump, with the kiss ending not long after the sudden sound. The stunned hellhound probably would have pushed him away if it was anybody else, but not the boil he considered a little brother, he just had to ride it out calmly and try not to flush.
And the red flush that spread on the bride of his nose didn't listen. He tried to clear his throat and ruffle the hair on the back of his neck in a awkward manner before finding his voice again. "Uh, not bad bud, its strange when its me on the receiving end of a liplock." he gushed out without really thinking. "That wasn't so bad, eh Jove?" he asked after a moment of much needed silence between the two of them, a little bit of normalcy.

Finally, he seemed to make his point! The pup sat back on his heels with a "So there!" expression on his blushing face. See, he could kiss just fine! And Demi even admitted it wasn't bad! The little pup fluffed up with pride, revelling in the fact that he had not only proved the hellhound wrong, but he had done so in such a manner as to render him nearly speechless!
But the other boil's next words struck home once Jove's gloating started to wear off. It... wasn't so bad? The kissing? It wasn't...
The pup's nose wrinkled as he realized what he just did, and then he scrubbed his lips with the sleeve of his sweater. Maybe if there were any diseases he would have rubbed them off... Ew, ew ew ew ew. Yet the pup couldn't regain that thoroughly disgusted attitude he had taken prior to the kiss, now he knew it was only a little thing, and hardly the giant fuss he had once believed it to be. Maybe it was only not bad because it was Demi. Sort of like how Ren could kiss him on the forehead and not suffer from any ill effects. That had to be it.
Still, he rubbed at his mouth some more, just to be on the safe side.

Damien, didn't have a problem with jove doing that, it was Jove afterall.
Except when he began to furiously rub at his lips like they were on fire. That was just a blow to his ego that the hellhound could not tolerate. "uh what are you..... are you trying to tell me that I can't kiss?" he growled out lowly, doing his best to control the eye twitch that made itself known as of late.
Oh no, oh Jack no, he was not going to take the insult passively. Without much thought on the matter Demi grabbed Jove by his collar and pulled him into a kiss on the hellhounds terms, that only lasted for a few heartbeats before breaking it off and get reintroduced to the air in the room. "And that's, how you do it." he said with an air of finality before ducking his head in the fallen book in front of him.
And opened up a book to place over his head for good measure, there was just no way he'd be able to face the smaller boil after that, now that he figured out what he just did.
He was almost half tempted to start checking for mold on his body again.

The little pup wasn't expecting Demi to reach over and grab him, and he was almost pulled off the chair with the way he had sat on his knees. Neither did he expect the older boil to kiss him, not when thus far he was the one making all the forward motions. Being not entirely in charge of the situation stunned him. And yet... That kiss wasn't bad either. It wasn't gross, or revolting, at least, not the touch in and of itself.
Jove stared for a good couple seconds, blushing bright enough to read by as his mind struggled to process things. And then he wiped his mouth dumbly before staring a little bit longer at Demi and the fortress of books that was slowly being assembled. So he was going to kiss him, just like that, and then hide?
With his scowl back in place, Jove leaned over to give the taller boil's shoulder a good shove. Except the only thing he accomplished was tipping his own chair away from Demi, and in that moment put his center of gravity above nothing but air. With a loud crash that was mostly the hard chair tumbling on it's side, the little pup spilled out across the floor. And then he scowled worse.

La la la, there was no outside world for the hellhound, only the sweet security of literature and words and books, most of which lacked pretty pictures. Kissing was not covered in books therefore it could not exist. Nope, not in here in the book fort. Damien's little makeshift abode does not deal with such things.
His little world fell out from under him when Jove himself literally did the same by tumbling off his seat onto the floor with a clatter even the buried hellhound could not ignore. As if he would ever ignore a slightly injured Jove. Damien plucked his head out from Encyclopedifortresss and held out a hand to the boil on the floor, although still not looking directly at him. "Need a hand or a paw?"

Jove scowled. How would Demi know if he needed a hand, if he wasn't even going to look at him! The pup batted away the helping hand, and scrambled to his feet all on his own before childishly knocking over Damien's fortress of books. For all that he tried to be grownup and mature, the pup was still only a puppy and did throw the occasional tantrum... And one little, or not so little, kiss wouldn't change that.
Ironically, the glare he fixed the hellhound with clearly read "stop being such a child!" before he sat down with a huff and opened a book with a good thump. Sheesh. It couldn't have been the first time the hellhound had kissed a boil. And he had been just fine while teasing Jove about his kissing, before he had initiated one himself. What was the big deal all of a sudden?

Damien flet lucky that his head was no longer stuck in the fortress when Jove decided to be the big bad hairy boil and huff huff huff it down, like in the storybooks of old. He did frown at the disheveled pile of books that lay sprawled all over the table, getting dog eared and folded in odd manners. The books didn't do anything to Jove but be there, he should be nicer to them.
"Hey I was reading that, ....upside down." he grumbled out dejectedly as the smaller boil dug back into his own book that managed to evade the tantrum massacre. Sure he kissed alot of people before, but never one he considered as close as family, on the lips no less. He didn't say much to the normally quiet boil but just slumped his head on the edge of the other's book, like a paper weight that didn't want to go away. he really hoped Jove wouldn't hate him over that kiss.

It didn't take Jove long to get over his frustration, he was pretty attentive to his friends' emotions and Demi seemed pretty upset over something. It was hard for the pup to interpret the mood swing.
Instead of asking about it, or trying to cheer the Demi up, he just watched the hound with a borderline confused face. It was pretty clear he didn't hate the boil, he didn't even look angry or try to pull away, or knock more books over. Slowly he leaned down and tilted his head so it was resting against the book as well, and he could better watch his friend for a sign of why he was unhappy. Maybe Damien just liked a more submissive role in kisses...
Jove sighed deeply, still watching with a "What's wrong? You can tell me," sort of expression.

Damien was not sulking.
ok maybe he was a little bit. It was pretty hard to deny it as he pretended to read the page that Jove was on. How the heck did it go from sex ed to a kissing battle? Now even the hellhound knew, but the fact is that he had no business kissing Jove.
At the mere mention of the ghost boil, he came down to his level on the book with a face that clearly said to him, "Who stole your bone?". and the hound crinkled his nose at the mere thought of explaining why he felt like such a bad dog.
A bad, bad dog. he needed to find a quiet corner in the library to sit in time out for his actions. "I shouldn't have done that to a boil I consider a brother." he explained softly before trying to go back to their old ways and ruffled the smaller boil's ear. "If it ever happens again, it will be on the bride of your nose Jove." he grumbled out light heartedly and flicked his nose for good measure.
He'd much rather being the doting older brother than helping Jove get impromptu kissing experience.

Jove wrinkled his nose in a matching expression, one ear perking up. What was wrong, Ren kissed him all the time, and they were brothers. Sure Ren only ever kissed him on the cheek or forehead though, never on the lips, was that what Demi was so concerned about? He scrunched his nose when Demi touched it, but then he quickly raised his head and perked his ears. That was probably it, the hound didn't want to show affection in a way that might spread infections!
The pup's tail wagged, and he went scrambling for his rough copy. Scratching out the "don't kiss others" part, he began writing a revised version of his thesis. Finally it read "To avoid Fear cross contamination, it is important to find ways of expressing affection without the risk of causing infection. When you are with someone you care about, they understand your gestures and expressions so you don't have to resort to kissing, and kisses don't have to be lip to lip to mean something."
It was a lot for the pup to write on such a topic, but it wasn't like he had to show it to anyone. Other than the teacher. And maybe Demi, because they were sort of working together...
He glanced over to see if his friend was still sulking.

Demi had his face on the library book for so long, he was sure there was fine print all along his face. But it was was worth it to see the perked ears and wagging tale of his little friend. At least he wasn't mad about the sudden face or face contact they had. He always wanted to bond with the little boil, just never expected it to be like this.
He did stare blankly at the adaptation Jove made to his previous thesis, rolling the idea around n his head before breaking out in a lopsided grin and giving the boil another ruffle on his ear. "Now that, I can agree with." he said in earnest. He couldn't find a flaw with the statement other than what other physical activities besides kissing is also done between couples and he found no reason to bring it up.
He didn't want to provide an impromptu lesson about that too. Jove is just going to have to learn that on his own, or at least not with him, even if they were around the same age or not.
"That's a great way to sum it up Jove, i'm impressed!" he praised Jove after awhile, scrolling through the books for any resources they could use for the brand new idea.

The pup's tail wagged a bit more at the praise, Damien's words building up his little ego even further. He really did like Demi and earning the boil's approval meant quite a bit to him. Not that he would admit it so easily.
Already the boil was forgetting about having been thoroughly kissed. In light of his newfound revelation regarding brotherly behaviour, and the placement of affections, he had other things to think about. Besides, he couldn't really fault the hellhound for teaching him about adult things, could he? He needed to learn these things, so he could learn to act grown up too.
Having made a slight progress in his work, Jove was starting to get a little antsy. Maybe he had gotten all worked up from their little competition, but the books just weren't doing it for him, and he had no more desire to sit around and read. Instead of continuing with his assignment he slouched back in his chair and watched Demi go through the books.

Demi was happily scrolling through the book titles, for anything that could be of use for the topic of "non-intimate expressions of adoration for the common day couples." but after book after book, he found his own attention waning from the literature.
The hound let out a silent yawn, remembering that it was still a library and rested his head on the hardcover book he was about to go through next. "I'm not in the mood to look through more books now." he whined pitifully, like a little scareling, and gave Jove a pout to match. He couldn't help but notice that Jove too gave up on the books
After that lesson, which he was never going to speak about again to anyone. Books just seemed boring, there had to be another way to report their finding to Nurse cricket. "What do you feel like doing Jove?" he asked after awhile and after another yawn. There was something about books and feeling tired that just went paw in paw when it came to the hound.
