Welcome to Gaia! ::

Mano rested his forehead against that of Xarnith, giving him a smile, "You know, Sunny, that you're quite a beauty. I am not surprised that some disagreeable rogue would want to steal a kiss from one such as you." He told him, then gave him two more kisses, one on each of tear shaped crystals, "These are very cute, has anyone ever told you that?" Mano was definitely a fan, but then again he found the crystals formations that other tribes had to be quite lovely. Xarnith though seemed to have some very interesting ones on his cheeks, "If you have more interesting patterns you really should show me sometime." Drawing back he gave the younger man a playful sort of wink.

"Hmm? Where? Don't know. I am hanging out in Ast as a sort of 'base of operations' while I try to figure out where it is that I want to go next. I am not exactly one for sitting still too long, there is far too much out there to do." Place to go, people to meet and flirt with, that sort of thing he thought to himself with a bit of a smile.

"Nobody? Are you sure? That seems strange to me, that nobody would mention them since they are so cute." He murmured, lifting a hand he brushed his thumb against one of the glittering crystals, then gave a soft laugh, "Oh? I will have to be the judge of the cuteness of your crystals? I am all for that important duty, Sunny." He have a smile, wanting nothing more then to be in charge of finding each and everyone of the cute little crystals that Xarnith might bare upon his person. That was definitely the sort of task that he wanted to be in charge of.

Mano looked around for a moment then asked, "Your uncle and younger brother? I hope that they don't mind me stealing some of your time." He'd thought that he was alone, but it seemed that he was traveling with his family. A shame, he thought that he had the cutie all to himself... but he didn't mind, maybe the uncle and brother were attractive too? His thoughts sputtered out when he heard him mention traveling to... Matori? As well as the mention of a new island. The latter didn't mean much to him, he had no interest in the this 'new island' but Matori. Everytime he heard about that place he missed them, his family memebers that had gone missing, and he wondered if he should return home again to renew the search. There was nothing left of them last time but maybe... maybe this time?

"Matori is a wonderful place, likely even more beautiful these days now that the Obans aren't ravaging it. I hope you enjoy your time there." He said, giving Xarnith a smile before stepping back to give him a bit of breathing room if he wanted it.

Mano gave a laugh, "If they showed no interest in you then they are a bunch of fools.. or maybe blind? Can't say for certain though since I haven't met them personally." Xarnith was the sort that was very easy on the eyes, not to mention that he had a personality that Mano found interesting enough. Nothing better then someone who was completely oblivious to their own good looks, it meant that Mano would have more fun letting Xarnith in on them through various compliments and a lot of flirting.

"Hm... maybe. I really should visit again." He should, but if he would... that was the hard part. There was the part of him that wanted to go home, to find his missing family, but there was also the part that feared going back to once more find... nothing. He shook his head, not wanting to think about that. Instead he focused on Xarnith, "Aww, poor Sunny. They left you to camp alone in the woods? Doesn't he know that there are a lot of things that might want to chase you and eat you up? Things that aren't nearly as attractive as I am?" Though he was one of those things that would like to eat up Xarnith, but that was neither here nor there.

Giving a smile he said, "If you want company during your lonely night time camp out I am a willing volunteer. I am sure we could figure out a pleasant way to spend the night, Sunny."

"Aww, poor, sweet little Sunny... it will be alright. I am only too happy to spend time with you. I would hate to leave you all alone, especially here in the middle of Jauhar." Sliding an arm around Xarnith he drew the Wind Tribesman over for a hug, giving him a kiss on the top of the head. He really was a sweet boy, wasn't he? Giving him a smile he said, "I think it was a blessing of On'os that led me to you, Sunny, so that we could meet and so that you don't have to spend a night alone."

With a little grin he said, "Oh Sunny, you don't have to worry. Any time we meet up I am only too happy to spend time with you no matter where we are. Jauhar, Matori, and anywhere in between." He was only too happy to spend his time with Xarnith after all.

Mano had stirred a little when someone else had approached the camp site that he'd shared with Xarnith the night before, his amber colored eyes following the man as he approached. There was no hostility to be seen, no drawn weapon, and from the looks of him Mano had assumed that the man was Xarnith's uncle. Were it not for the fact that he was currently curled up with Xarnith he might have greeted the man, even flirted a bit, but it seemed a bit crass. Not to mention that he didn't want to wake up his sleeping Sunny. Instead he settled back down, dozing off again as the man left a note behind.

Another unknown amount of sleep later Mano came to again, giving Xarnith a kiss on each of his tear drop crystals before he said, "Time to way sleepy Sunny, your Uncle left a note for you. You might want to look it over." He doubted it was important enough that he should have woke him straight away. If it was the man would have woke Xarnith himself. Since he'd chosen to leave a note instead he would assume that it was something that could wait until the young Wind Tribesman was ready to wake up. He'd had a long night and waking him earlier seemed as though it wouldn't be very nice of Mano. Allowing him to sleep in seemed like the better thing to do.

Mano couldn't help but to laugh as Xarnith read the note to him. It seemed as though the uncle was trying to keep him around for a while longer. He sat up, stretching all over as Xarnith spoke, telling him that they could go to town and eat and that he could ignore the note. Givng a nod of his head he said, "I will definitely join you for breakfast." While he didn't have plans to follow them as far as Matori he didn't mind sticking with the adorable Wind Tribesman for a while longer.

Whistling to himself as he dressed and gathered his things he asked, "How are you doing? Will you be alright walking to town or shall I carry you, Sunny?" He gave him a little smile and a wink as he wasked the question, ready and willing to carry Xarnith if he felt that such a thing was nescessary. He wasn't sure if he'd take him up on the offer since the entire village, along with Xarnith's uncle and brother, would see it. This thought in mind he added, "It's an open invitation by the way." Just in case it was needed.

Mano's eyes went for a moment wide as the Wind Tribesman stumbled, something that he found to be cute, before he started to grin, "You really are adorable." He said as he stepped forward, giving Xarnith a hand to help to steady him. It would seem as though he was going to need to help after all, "You needn't worry, my sweet Sunny. I will be right here to help you, I am not the love them and leave them sort after all."

After gathering his things up he turned around, offering Xarnith his back, helping him up onto it. Once he adjusted the blond's weight on his back he picked up their things and said, "Come on, let's get back to down. Once we get back we will get you some breakfast, some rest, and we can wait together until you can join your family." He told him, giving Xarnith a smile before he started back toward the village of Ast. The note left behind had mentioned meeting them there so the two of them, the uncle and brother, would be waiting for Xarnith's return. Hopefully they would be fine with waiting on Xarnith to get a bit of rest... well, unless one of them happened to be a healer sort.
