Welcome to Gaia! ::

Leo was once again surprised when the master sat on the ground beside him. he was about to take the paper and pencil when he was told to finish eating first and he nodded a little. he finished the cake as the master spoke of how big everything seemed to be. "you should try laying on the floor, it makes everything even bigger." he said softly as he reached for the pencil and paper. he was quick with this because he'd done it so many times. Taking in the master's preferance for his hair being down, he made the straight on picture with his hair down, but the side picture with his hair up so that more details could be seen. it took less than five minutes to complete. he held it out for the master, "is this acceptable?"

Leo looked down, "some-" he said softly, "she taught me reading and writing, arithmetic and-and magic," he said the last words so soft it could barely be heard. "things like that, but mama...my mother was the one who first taught me how to draw and sing." he closed his eyes and forced himself to not remember. it hurt to much, even just a glimpse of their faces in his memories was enough to break him. he took a small breath and held out the paper to the master. he could think of one thing to definatly keep his mind off and he smiled slightly. "one moment-" he got another piece of paper and began to draw on it, knowing he'd probably be scolded or at least fluster this strange master of his for what he was about to show him. "do you like this one as well, master?" he asked softly, turning it for the prince to see. it was another depiction of Leo, save that this time he was almost completely nude. he was laying on a bed with his hair spread out around him and a single corner of the bedcloth erotically wrapped around him, hiding his groin. his knees were brought up and slightly spread and one arm was 'shyly' placed upon his chest while the other reached up out towards the viewer in invitation. it was another picture he could draw from memory, one he'd been forced to make over and over again.

Leo watched the master carefully and the messages he was reading off of him, after the initial reaction to the first seeing of it, was not good. if anything, it looked like the master dissaproved...he lowered his eyes as the prince took his time to reply, and when words finally did leave the master's mouth, Leo wasn't sure what to make of them. had the master not liked the picture and, being a kind man, found something to compliment? "i'm sorry if you do not like it, master-" he said softly, taking the picture and moving to the fireplace on all fours. he tossed it into the flames and watched it burn, kneeling silently. "i'll do better next time," he promised diligently, "what pose would you prefer?"

Leo lookede over at the master and smiled a little, sad that the hug ended so soon. his own surprise at that strange sensation took a little to wear off, and he had to look back into the fire to hide it. usually he would give anything to have the master stop touching him, but with this master he didn't want the touch to end-how strange. he blushed prettily, as was required when given a compliment, and smiled slightly when the master said he was beautiful, "thank you." he shifted and and lay on his side, his head in the master's lap as they sat near the fire, "you are so very kind to me, master. i wish i were more worthy of your kind care."

Leo giggled softly at the master's continued obsession with hsi ears. no one had paid them this much attention, and Leo's entire body had had enough attention from men to last several thousand lifetimes. it was a trait unique to his master. he wasn't sure about deserving kindness, but he was happy to accept it none the less. "master? do you have a lot of work to do yet?" he wanted to stay like this, warm and content, but if te master had more work to do, he didn't mind moving over to the desk

Leo stood when the master did and nodded at his question of if he was ready to walk. he wasn't actually wearing shoes since they just felt wrong, but his dress covered that little fact. and he was answering yes to the first question, choising not to answer the second one. he walked to the master and smiled, "shall we go then? will the master let me sing for him when we get back?" he wanted to stay therea nd continue to cuddle with the master, but moving around and seeing more of the castle sounded fun too

Leo decided to not bring the book in the end, but he followed after the master, listening carefully to who they had to follow. he thought about it for a moment before reaching forward to touch the master's hand. he instantly knew where the man whom the master was looking for was. he smiled, "this way-" he lead the master through the castle, following that sixth sense of his and finally arrived at a room in which a man stood, gazing out the window. "is this him, master?" he asked softly, looking over and stepping back, letting go of the master's hand.
