((Tis okay! xD That happens!))
Riley was shocked by Silvio's questions. "What? Can't a random stranger just help you out from the good of their herat?" he asked, grinning. "Come on, why would I call an ambulance? I don't know what kind of trouble you've been in. And I sure don't want to be caught up in it if you did something major!" the fox said, obviously not thinking of toning down his words. "As for listening to what you want, you ARE hurt after all. Duh."
He just shrugged. "It means dark-skinned in Celtic. That's all, nothing special." Kerwin replied. "Opposites do attract!" the unicorn blurted out, smiling. Well, he was thinking more along the lines of science... And not THAT kind of science!
Marlon looked at Jiki, blinking. Something was wrong... But why wouldn't he just say something? Or... Was there something else... Or someone? But at the hug, the bunny pushed aside his worrying thoughts. "Okay." he said quietly, though not believing the words.

(( @.@ We need to RP more... ))
Silvio blinked, surprised at Riley's answers. He wasn't too worried about harming the coon's feelings if they were sensitive; luckily, they weren't. The maroon coon smirked, satisfied at his answer. "I suppose that would be a good reason not to call an ambulance. It was probably a smart choice..." he murmured, shaking his head. He could have been delerious, however he was not. "How much further?" he asked quietly, wondering how much longer his legs would hold out.
Motega placed his index finger and thumb on his chin, looking Kerwin over once more as the unicorn explained the meaning of his name. "Well, it could always have a deeper meaning. Some people go furhter into the meanings of names to find something further to it. You could always play around with it as well," he explained with a smile.
"I guess so!" Motega laughed as Kerwin said that. Though, they were both rather quiet, most other of their attributes were opposite. After all, Motega was more forward, and Kerwin was more withdrawn. At least, they were before they started talking. This thought made the bunny smile, glad that Kerwin was having fun.
Jiki wanted to stay like this, wanted to just hold Marlon like he was now, but knew he couldn't. It might get too awkward. However... Marlon wasn't pulling away either, and it made Jiki reconsider. Was it really the wrong time? He figured it might be best to evaluate the situation before coming to any major decisions, but he did wish he could just convey his true feelings to the bunny. Maybe when they were out of range of the other two? But then again, if he was too shy in front of others to say what he truly meant, didn't that mean it wasn't fully felt? His mind swam with questions concerning this, and he found he was only torturing himself in the meantime, possibly even Marlon. But what was he to say?

((No duh! Oo; ))
At Silvio's answer, the fox grinned. "Smart choice, hm? Well my floormates sure wouldnt' agree." Riley chuckled at the thought. Especially by-the-rules Joscelin. "Oh, not too much farther! It's just that small hotel up at the corner." Riley replied, pointing to a brick building with streetlamps illuminating the front door.
Kerwin shuffed his feet as Motega explained. "Well... Maybe you're right. I guess I'll have to go do some more reasearch." the unicorn said, returning the smile with a small one of his own. He wasn't sure but... He was starting to think of Motega as a friend...!
Marlon glanced up at Jiki. Why wasn't he moving? Or saying anything. "J-Jiki...?" the bunny asked, his ears twitching. He tried to keep his emotions in control but... It was so hard! He just wanted to come out an SAY something! But he was scared. Yes, he was scared. Why though, he couldn't say.

(( xd ))
Silvio snorted; well, others thought differently than them, but the coon still felt it was the best choice to have been made. After all, if he hadn't promised to help him find his way back after taking him to his house, Silvio Melanion might just've taken off!
"G-Good," he managed to spit out, starting to get a little cold with all the loss of blood. "Getting a little too dizzy to be moving around like this," he snorted, a somewhat half-hearted chuckle.
Motega shrugged, "You don't have to, but it might be something fun to do in your free time, maybe between books or something?" Researching he had always found to be something interesting to do to pass the time when cooped up inside, finding out things he hadn't known before to add them to the works he did. "What do you like to do when you're not reading?" the teal bunny asked, wondering what other hobbies Kerwin had.
Jiki opened his eyes, heart skipping a little when Marlon spoke. Had he done something wrong? He hadn't let go... but he didn't want to! Reluctantly, he released his grip on the lavender bunny, smiling apologetically. "Sorry, Marlon. I guess... I'm just not myself today," he tried, but falling short. He turned his gaze away, growling to himself about how weak he was.

((x3 *giggles*))
"Want me to carry you?" Riley asked, pausing to turn and look at him. "I wouldn't want you to pass out while going up the stairs or nuthin'..." The fox knew if he had a hard enough time carrying a stack of CD's up the stairs, that carrying another Anthro up would prove to be near impossible for him.
"Uuuhh... Well I actually don't get to sit and read that often." Kerwin admitted, fiddling with his book. "The other Anthros I live with get kinda noisy... Well at least Riley. He's a partier." the unicorn explained. "But if I ever do get free time and don't want to read, I just watch TV or go cook."
"No!" Marlon squeaked as Jiki pulled away and turned. The bunny clung to him, arms around his waist. "I forgive you! Just... I didn't-" Didn't what? The poor bunny couldn't get his thoughts straight! And he hated acting like some love-sick teenager in the movies. But that's just how he felt!

(( Yaay! I made the Fanta-kins giggle! XD ))
Silvio stumbled slightly as Riley halted his steps. He snickered and closed his eyes, shaking his head, "I'm sure I can make it inside." His legs were wobbly, but he had enough stubbornness to make it to where he needed to go. "However, if we stop, I can't guarantee it. I-I'll be fine. Just... let's get inside before I get any worse," he added, starting off with a smirk but ending with a little shakiness. He hated being so vulnerable, so helpless like this.
Motega smiled, almost apologetically seeing as Jiki and him interrupted his rare free time. "Sorry about that," he said, scratching the back of his head, "You should come out here more often. I'm out here a lot, and I rarely see any others around, so there should be plenty of peace and quiet for you. That's why I like it out here myself." He turned to look around at the scenery, familiar with it. "You any good at cooking?" he asked, turning back. "I can cook as well, but I'm not very good. It's all rather plain," he admitted.
Jiki's ears straightened upright as Marlon clung to him, surprised at his reaction. A deep blush appeared over his grey-violet cheeks, and a bit of electrical energy surged up his form before he had time to control it. "M-Marlon..." Jiki stuttered, stiff for a moment before lowering a hand to the bunny's head again. He managed a smile, but he was still horribly blushing. "You didn't mean it that way, right? I'm sorry... I shouldn't assume. You... Um, I...," he attempted, clenching his teeth at every break. He couldn't take it anymore; it would just drive it insane if he kept bending over backwards worrying about the outcome! "Marlon... it's been a while, hasn't it?" he said, trying to start off and gradually move to where he was getting to.

((Yush you did!))
Riley grinned as Silvio replied. "Oh good! I'd rather not carry you... No offence of course." the fox chuckled, beginning to walk again. He could tell that the coon didn't like the situation very much. He was trying too hard to be a 'tough guy'.
"That's okay. You didn't know!" Kerwin replied with a shy smile. "I only came out here because I didn't want to stay cooped up in my room all night." At the question of his cooking, the unicorn merely shrugged. "I don't know... I think I cook pretty good..." he murmured. "But if you practice, I'm sure your cookig will become better!"
"Y-yeah...!" Marlon stuttered. He nodded, blushing a lot himself. "Yeah... It has been quite awhile..."

Melanion Silvio was having a hard time the longer they went on. More than concentrating on where they were headed, he focused on keeping his muscles stiff, trying to get them not to shake so badly. He felt glad that he had long hair to keep the body heat in, but it was getting to the point where it really didn't matter. They reached the door, but the coon hardly even realized; he let Riley lead them along, while he concentrated on keeping himself awake.
Motega grinned, nodding his head to Kerwin. "It's nice to come out once in a while. However, this is coming from someone who basically lives outdoors..." he said with a laugh, rubbing his head. As Kerwin went on, Motega stole a glance over to the other two, wondering why they were being so quiet. He snickered silently and turned away, sensing that they needed this time alone. "I'm sure I would, but I concentrate my efforts on practicing other things, which is why I haven't gotten very good," he explained, tilting his head. "If you know of anything good I can try, I can practice with that!"
Jiki's mouth tweaked into a semi-smile, but he was trying so hard to come up with a good way to say what he wanted to. "But... even though it hasn't been very long, it seems like we've known each other for... a long time. Forever, even," he began again, his tail almost bushed with his clenched heart. He turned away and to the ground, unsure he could do it, but swallowed his doubt, closing his eyes, and turned back to Marlon.

The fox carefully guided Silvio into the building and up the stairs to his room. Once there, he unlocked the door and lead the coon to his bed and plopped him on it. "There you go. Relax and let me get some stuff to clean you up with." Riley said, dashing to the bathroom to get wash clothes and a bowl of warm water.
Kerwin smiled. "Yeah... It's nice out tonight, I really like it. Usually I just look at it from my window with it cracked open, but I don't come out much." Actually, it had been quite awhile since he'd been out just for the fun of it! "Oohh... And what things are those?" the unicorn asked, curious. "Yes, practice makes perfect!"
"Jiki...? Is there... Is there something you're not telling me?" Marlon asked, looking up at him. "I know we don't see enough of each other b-but... Why are we acting so awkward to each other?" Marlon hated secrets... He hated it when things were kept in the dark. But of course, he was a hipocrite (msp). He didn't always want to tell soething but still...

Silvio stumbled slightly on the steps as his consentration was directed elsewhere, and he jerked back to reality. He made the rest of the way up with no problem, but the world seemed to become a little fuzzy as he watched where Riley was directing him. He shook his head as the fox unlocked his door, trying to gain back his bearings. He was just beginning to get a little nauseous as he was layed down into the bed, and the horizontal position steadied his nerves enough to relax slightly. At least he was no longer using his energy to stand upright... Blinking up at Riley, he nodded his head in acceptance of him leaving and turned his head to watch the fox disappear through the doorway. Wow, I'm not much of an interesting guest to be around, not being able to talk very much, he snickered, sighing. He didn't want to waste his energy on something that could be dealt with another way.
"You don't come out much? Why not? It's a lot more interesting outdoors," the bunny said with a laugh, in more of a friendly manner than mocking. He knew some people preferred it indoors, where they had more control over what happened to their surroundings, but Motega was out more for adventure. "Me? I like to practice honing my senses so I'm better at doing things, I like to scout new areas to know my surroundings better... stuff like that. More for adventure than anything," he admitted. He thought these hobbies must've not really sounded like much fun to others who weren't into them, but this is just what he liked. "Though... learning to cook could probably fall into that category if I ever got lost or something!" he added. After all, if he was by himself, he'd have to know what to fix!
He really didn't know how to say it; he was never taught how to do anything like this. In all his training to become the best beta he could be, they never touched upon this subject. How was he suppose to know how to handle it? "Marlon..." he started, but let the pause drag on as he tried his hardest to come up with a way to speak what he felt. "I... I like you, Marlon. No... that's not it. I..--" he broke off, another pause he felt dragged on forever. He knew this was just as hard on Marlon as it was for him, and he didn't like to put the one he loved in the spotlight like this. That was it. "I love you!" he exclaimed, blush intense as he turned away again, unbelieving he had just said what he had. His back turned, the electricity around his body crackled before turning back to normal as he took a deep breath, trying to steady his nerves again. "You know I meant it... That's not something I'd lie about outright like that," he said with his eyes closed, almost afraid of what Marlon was to say next.

((Oo; Weeelllll... Maybe it'll make me type more? ^^; ))
Riley soon returned with the water and cloth. Setting them beside his bed, the fox smiled at Silvio. "Feel better now that you're off your feet?" he asked, wetting the cloth. "So where are all of your cuts?" He wanted to get them cleaned. One - so that his sheets wouldn't be stained and Two - so the coon wouldn't get any infections. Those could get nasty fast.
He shook his head, adding a shrug. "I guess I'm just too busy reading... Or being dragged off somewhere by one of my floormates." Kerwin explained, blushing a little as Motega laughed. "Well I could teach you to cook! I-if you'd want help of course..." the unicorn murmured, looking down to the ground as he fiddled absentmindedly with his book.
Marlon waited anxiously for Jiki to respond. Was he hiding something bad...? Did the bunny even really want to know what the beta was going to say? But the camp counseler was stunned, to say the least, by Jiki's words. H-he loved him? HIM?
But his long, lavender ears perked forward, and a slow smile came to be on his face. "Y-you do?" he asked, still in shock. Then unable to control himself, the bunny found himself giving the beta a huge bear hug, grinning from one long ear, to the other. "I-I love you too!"

(( Gah, I'm still shakey! @.@; But happy! ^^ ))
Opening his eyes, not realizing at first that they were closed, he watched as Riley came back in. Ugh... this vulnerability is so annoying! But this won't get the best of me, he thought to himself before his ears twitched to the sound of the fox's voice. He slid a hand to his forehead and sighed, answering with a shakey, "You bet I am." After a moment's thought, he ran the hand from his forehead across his neck, and down his chest. He shook his head after a pause and grunted. "No idea, I lost count how many times I got hit. I couldn't even feel most of them. I take it there's enough on my arms and chest... but mostly from the front, if not all," he smirked wryly. This was so humiliating...
"I see. I bet I'd have the same kind of trouble if I bothered to stay inside," he said with a smile. Kerwin was just so nervous, it was rather cute. He seemed to Motega to be like a younger brother. He gave Winny a pat on the shoulder before resting it there, crouching down slightly to look him in the eyes. His intense stare might make others nervous, but he hoped it wouldn't put the unicorn off. "I'd like that! I think I'd need the help of someone who knows what they're doing," he said with a slight snicker, pointing fun at himself.
Jiki jumped as Marlon clung to him, the electricity surging out of control for a moment as it surged up the both of them, lifting Jiki's hair slightly from the power. Struggling to get it under control again, he lowered his head and fought back the tears of joy. He placed his hands on Marlon's around his chest, and whispered an almost inaudible, "Thank you." He raised one hand to his eyes and stiffened, hoping the tears wouldn't fall, but even a beta couldn't keep them at bay. His teeth clenched, he hoped Marlon wouldn't notice, but at the same time didn't care. Did he even really deserve this love?

((ZOMG me too!!!!))
Rolling his eyes and shaking his head, Riley said bluntly, "Well take off the shirt then and lemme see." Yes, he wasn't going to beat around the bush. He wasn't about to get his bed all dirty with blood if he could help it! Plus, the last time he'd gotten his sheets dirty with mud and drinks, Joscelin about killed him. Silly wolf... Didn't he know Riley could take care of his own laundry?!
"Oh it's not really all that bad! Really!" Kerwin said, still a bit nervous though he didn't have to be! "It's easy! Just follow the directions, basicly! Sometimes you need to change it a bit, but it's really easy! I don't know why you'd have a hard time with it!"
Marlon's ears twitched excitedly as his little cotton-tail did the same. He murmured back a 'you're welcome' as he grinned. Looking up at Jiki, the bunny laughed. Jiki looked as if he was about to cry! "Oh come on now, you're not that disappointed, are you?" the lavender bunny teased playfully at the beta.

(( Ugh... I seriously did NOT expect to win anything from that event! @.@
Silvio blinked, and reached around his neck to try to grab at a collar that wasn't there. Blinking confusedly, hoping he hadn't lost his mind or become delerious, he batted at other parts of his arms and chest looking for a hem, but found none. With a start he remembered the thought he always had about how shirts seemed to get in the way during battles, and laid his head back down on the pillow. With a sigh of relief at not going insane, he replied, "Sorry, it might not be easy to tell... but I don't wear a shirt. Is it... really that bad?" His sentences came between small gasps through his pain, not realizing he had bled enough to cover the fact he didn't wear a shirt.
Motega smiled weakly, thinking over what Kerwin had said. He laughed a little, standing up straight and holding his mouth so he didn't startle the uke unicorn. "Oh, there are instructions? I wonder if MoogerMint keeps those around?" he snickered, not putting it past her to forget. "But seriously, I usually just try to put things together that I think might work. They... they don't usually turn out the way I was expecting," he laughed. "I'd really appreciate any help I get for it."
Stiffly but quickly, Jiki moved his hand to wipe his tears from his eyes, heart beating almost too rough to bear. "M-Marlon..." he gasped between choking breaths, failing at keeping his tears at bay. "It's not that, I just..." he tried, but wasn't able to say what was truly bugging him. He cursed at himself being such a pessimist as his ears swiveled backward, twisting in Marlon's grasp to hold him. "I'm just so happy, is all," he said in a half-truth, wrapping his mismatched wings around the two of them.

((Me neither! xD I swear I was in complete & utter shock!))
Riley blinked, surprised. "Oh... Sorry 'bout that! And no, of course it's not that bad!" the fox lied. He didn't want to have Silvio go into a state of shock or anything. That would be bad. "Why don't you go take a shower or something then... I mean, that'd be a lot easier and probably less painful..." he suggested. But he already started to wash off the blood at the coon's shoulders.
Smiling sweetly, the brown unicorn giggled. "Yes of course there are! But you know, food tastes better when you actually have something to go by. Just throwing things together is... never a good idea." He remembered a time when Raine had tried to make something... Oh that was a disaster! "Well I'm always willing to give you a hand in cooking. It's a lot of fun!"
"Happy tears then, hm? Never thought I'd see you cry. But it's cute." Marlon smiled, cuddling with the beta as his wings surrounded them. "And I'm happy too, really, really happy..."
