Welcome to Gaia! ::

Nehelini was all ready for a nice one on one with Tallulah. A voice in the back of his mind nagging him to recall that there was one more he had to keep in mind...someone tall. Dark and...OH CRAP!!! The youth's head snapped to the voice, a small thrill of fear tickled his spine. There he was. Eyphah. Nehelini wanted to wade over to him but recalled the water was a lot higher for him than his two current companions. He gave the dark male a bright sunny smile before looking back to Tallulah. Blinking the youth's head tilted.

"Why would I take advantage of Tallulah...? You only take advantage of those you don't like." he said resolutely. That's what his cousins taught him at least. Boy did he exploit a few of them out of sheer spite. He followed Tallulah's directions as he floated. Eyes moving up to watch Eyphah. His long dark blue hair flowing around him the youth made an odd image. Like a ice siren almost.

Pup stayed where it was, the word "treat" being something Nehelini taught it well. Pup wondered what sort of treat the odd fishman had for it.

Nehelini was perfectly calm...up until he saw the kiss. Startling the young Dovaa, he nearly went completely under before gasping as he came up. Completely soaked now he blinked a light lavender to his pale cheeks. Looking away from the two he felt something tear at his insides. A hand sinking in the water to drum his fingers on his stomach. A nervous habit he picked up during his training. He didn't let it show on his face beyond the little moment he just had. He glanced back to them...a single thought echoing in his head.

"So I was right...is there room for me here?" a thought which sent him through a horrid month back during his training when he got a similar slap of reality. A month which ended in him being banned from visiting one of his cousins up in the Planes. He let his shoulders relax as he turned to Tallulah with a semi-tight smile. The waters around him dropped a few degrees in temperature. A sub-conscious move on his end to separate himself from the "couple", as they were in his mind now. He nodded. "Sure...though I might try to calm my nerves a bit...just scared myself..."

He chuckled nervously as he waded towards Pup. The creature rising as its young master pulled himself up to sit by him on the rocks. His thoughts were jumbled and confused. This was not good. If there was no place here, where he thought there was...what the blazes did he belong? He thought for sure...he shook his head as he lowered it to rest on his bent arm. Laying with his back to the two Khehorians he wanted them to not see his mild distress. He had three more months before he had to check in with Darvish. Eyes narrowing. He just knew the male would tease him. Nehelini was adamant that he had a place with Khehorans. Darvish mocked him...

He felt like the whelp he was so correctly called as his mind drifted.
