Welcome to Gaia! ::

Bisera was thankful for the aid as Xarnith took the heavy pack from him, making him feel as though he weighed half as much without it. He shifted in place before he started to walk forward alongside of Xarnith, glancing from time to time at the others they were traveling with, then back to Xarn again. He gave a shake of his head, "It's not that I am just... surprised."

He seemed to struggle with his thoughts for a moment before he glanced up at Xarnith, his cheeks a bit red, as he said in a low, muttered, and very embarrassed voice, "I... was kind of... ready to hand you over when you found a wife... was even willing to make rings for you." Best that he admit the truth so that Xarnith knew where he was coming from. He'd never thought that he had a chance so it was never something that he really thought about. Instead he'd considered Xarnith his best friend, someone he cared about, wanted to hang out with, but he'd been waiting for the day that a woman showed up to steal him away.

Now that such an obstacle was gone he found himself thrown for a loop really. What did he do now? Really he couldn't say... and it was odd for him to be so out of sorts when Xarnith was around since normally he was so comfortable around him.

(( End of Round 4 ))

Mano tilted his head to one side, watching as Kyrian all but danced ahead to get some blankets set up for their guests. It really was a rather cute thing for him to do he thought to himself before he followed, "We will be nearby if you need anything Sunshine, Jewel." He said before he reached out, ruffling both of their hair before he offered them some friendly advice, "Sit next to each other, not across from each other, it's more conducive to getting close." Sitting across from each over was far too much like a serious meeting which was not what the two of should be acting as though they were attending.

From there he was pulled along by Kyrian to give the pair a bit of space. While they weren't alone in this place since there were also Mano, Kyrian, and various beasts running around it was at least better then back at the caravan. Hopefully it would be the space that the pair needed to get everything figured out he thought to himself as he settled down on a blanket with Kyrian. He rested his head on the smaller male's shoulder, giving a nod as he was excited to see how things bloomed, "Yeah, I hope that it goes smoothly for Sunshine over there."

As conversation turned to the two of them he gave a smile, "I bet we looked as good as we do now... though maybe a touch more adorable naivete on your part?" He gave Kyrian a wink before nodding, "Was I now? I hope it's a kiss you look back on fondly then, Honey." With that he gave him a couple more kisses here and there to add even more nice memories.

Bisera flushed a bit as he was patted on the head by the Matorian, telling them that they should sit next to one another, before he headed off with Kyrian. He watched them go before he found himself settling down next to Xarnith. He looked up at him as the other took hold of his hand and started to speak. He starred up at him, cheeks coloring, before he rested his head against Xarn's shoulder, "I want us to be able to stay friends too... can we do that and... you know... do other things?" Was that what they were doing already though? Xarnith had always been cuddly and sweet after all.

Flushing for he asked in a hushed tone, "I... did I miss it, Xarnith? Were you trying to get me to notice all this time? I know I am oblivious and I am worried that I... rejected you. It's not what I meant to do and I apologize if I did." He said that being being near him was where he needed to be... so did that mean that he'd missed feelings that Xarnith was trying to express?

(( End of Round 5 ))

Mano gave a bit of a grin, "I can think of many other places that we really should check out as well. The more adventures we can have together the better." There were a lot of places that they could have a lot of fun at together. At the mention of going to cuddle the others though his plans for where the two of them should go to play next.

"Hm? Heh, that does sound like it would be fun. It would squish the two of them closer together too!" Not to mention the idea of teaming up with Kyrian to tackle the pair of them. He gave a little of a grin as he hopped up to his feet, helping Kyrian up to his feet along with him, "Come on! Let's go!" With that Mano was rushing on over to where the pair of them were sitting before pouncing on them from the side, pushing Bisera into Xarnith, and pinned the both of them down in the sands.

Once there he lifted up a bit, smiling down at them, and asked, "So! You two getting along now? Ready to make friendly with one another?"

Bisera gave a squeak as he suddenly found himself being squished between Xarnth and the Matorian male that he was referring to as Mano. He was stuck, unable to escape since he was caught between them, but it wasn't awful... it was just really awkward and embarrassing. Not exactly how he thought that he would be spending his day. He glanced toward Xarnith as he said suddenly that he wasn't 'ready for that' which had him wondering what he was referring to.

"What do you mean, Xarnith?" He said that Bi wasn't ready but said nothing of himself, had he been ready for the tackle? Maybe he knew the man well and knew such a thing was incoming where as Bisera had been totally caught off guard. It made sense to him. Another squeak was draw from him as more weight was added to the pile and he found himself squished by Kyrian as well. At least he wasn't on the bottom, the only consolation that he got at the moment.

Squirming a bit he said, "Ahh... huh?" He looked up at Kyrian in a curious manner. He was warm? That gave him a momentary strike of inspiration... but ti was lost given the situation. It was hard to concentrate on work when you were being squished after all.

(( End of Round 6 ))

Mano starred at Xarnith for a moment as he seemed to be trying to protect Bisera, wrapping an arm around him, hugging him close, and trying to ward him off by saying that Bisera wasn't ready for such things. He blinked closely before his attention went to the rather flustered Bisera, leaning in closer to him, inspecting him closely through his glimmering golden eyes before he gave a smile, "Ohhh... I see! That is adorable, Jewel." He murmured, leaning in so that he could press a kiss to his forehead before withdrawing a little, allowing room so that Kyrian could squirm closer into the friendly snuggle pile.

"You needn't worry Sunshine, Jewel, I am not the sort that would eat someone up without them showing expressed interest in such a things. I'm more then happy with us just lounging together, chatting, and otherwise making friendly. We needn't go to where your mind has wandered, Sunshine." He gave his pretty friend a little wink, finding it cute that it was exactly where his mind had gone. Not that he was too far off from where Mano's mind always went but still.

Shifting himself he rolled onto his back, pulling Kyrian to lay on one side of him, then tugged on Xarnith to pull him and Bisera to join them, "How about a nice snuggle pile and a nap as a first step toward us all becoming friends? It would be good for the two of you as well! Sleeping in one another's arms is always a good way to go if you ask me." Then again that sort of thing was something he enjoyed doing with anyone willing since he was naturally a cuddly guy.

Bisera fell quiet as Xarnith mentioned that he was used to more then a cuddle coming from Mano. Did that mean... did that mean that the two of them had...? It was a question that swirled around in his mind, causing him a bit of confusion and without even thinking about it he asked, "Wait... wait... more then a cuddle...? Shouldn't Mano be the one that you are interested in being more then friends?

He found himself instantly wondering if Kyrian knew about the fact that the two of them had done such things together? Wasn't he going to be upset with Mano? Didn't that mean that the Matorian was cheating on him? Them? It was all kind of confusing and a bit dizzying as he tried to wrap his mind around it all. All that he knew was that Xarnith seemed to be confessing to him but had a 'more then cuddling' relationship with the Matorian... who was seemingly with Kyrian... Oh Chi he felt really, really confused. To the point he had to lift a hand to rub it it against his temples to try to make himself feel a touch less dizzy.

(( End of Round 7 ))

Mano shifted so that he was more comfortable, pulling Kyrian closer to him, nuzzling into his sun warmed hair, before turning to look over at Bisera, "It's nothing you need to worry about, Jewel. Since he's so serious about you I won't try to steal Sunshine away from you." He didn't want anyone here to think that he was out for all the booty without regards to the feelings of everyone involved. He was a hopeless flirt that was all for physical contact with those around him but not to the point that he would sacrifice others for his own amusement. He wasn't so cruel as that.

Allowing his eyes to close he said, "Let's all relax, enjoy ourselves, and not fret too much. Everything with be alright since we are just lazing on the beach, nothing more." He could reach it easily, that everyone around him had gone a bit tense and he wanted to defuse the situation if at all possible.
