He nodded and followed Ryuho wordlessly. He'd never been in this part of the city and there was much for his remaining eye to gaze at. His eye was so obsorbed in looking around him that he nearly tripped over a wire, instead sending him stumbling over against Ryuho. "S-sorry," he murmured. "I wasn't looking..." The faintest bit of pink creeping onto his cheeks - he hadn't tripped or shown any ungraceful movements in quite a long time and it was very embarrassing.

Ryuho laughed. "It's fine. You used to run into me a lot when you were younger. That's how I usually caught you in your bad deeds, but I let you do them anyway, which may not have been so good on my part, but I couldn't help it." Ryuho was being nostalgic again, but as they approached the bar music could be heard, or at least the bass from it. Ryuho opened the door and slowly walked waiting for Tsubaki behind him. As Ryuho walked by he got several whistles but ignored them and grabbed Tsubaki's hand pulling him to a section seperate from the actual bar. He closed the door and locked it. "This is my living quarters. The rest of it is as big as two houses, so technically the bar is part of my house. Nobody comes in this part but me since I live here. The workers have their own places." Ryuho led Tsubaki into a lounging area and motioned for him to sit down. "DO you want something to drink?" Ryuho asked. For it being underground, Ryuho's house was extremely warm and cozy. you would never tell Ryuho's house would be this warm the way he walks around half naked in the winter.

He smiled as he entered, hearing the whistles. When they entered his living quarters, he took the proferred seat. "Hmm... wonder what it looks like from their point of view... You suddenly taking in an unknown boy into the space where only you come..." He leaned back against the couch, slowly removing his scarf as he spoke. "It's nice here. Warm. I'm surprised. I thought you used to say places like this were hotter than furnaces."

"They shouldn't mind what I do really." Ryuho came back into the room and sat acroos from Tsubaki handing him a bottle of water and opening the one he had for himself. "The temperature in here is part of what I wanted to explain. I was saying before, I made a pact before I disappeared, but as you can tell, nothing is missing. I just have the markings. I traded my body to a dragon who had untapped power. I found away around that and sealed him inside of me, but his qualities are mine. He hates the cold, but I love it, I can walk around like this and be fine, but i cant live in it. It's wierd to me, when I am in a aplace that I can call home it has to be warm or it drives me insane, but outside I can do whatever I please, even in the summer. It's as if the balance is seperated in certain places. I have to perform a ritual the first of every month to keep the dragon inside. I still get the use of the magic as long as he lives in my body, but if he is unsealed he will leave and I will lose the powers I have." Ryuho sipped his wated eying Tsubaki's revealed neck. WIth the scarf on Ryuho could only see the top under his chin, but now he had a full view.

He listened intently. So that was the reason for the green "tattoo" he had been alowed glances of. He eyes Ryuho and then asked, finally, frowning slightly,"Do you have a neck fettish?"

Ryuho laughed and sat back in the chair. His smile was so wide his "fangs" were extremely visible. "I'm found out. No, heh, not particularly, but yours, you don't remember tha either and I wouldn't want to do it if you don't remember." Ryuho closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "When you were younger, one day you were playing and I noticed how delicate and pale your skin on your neck was. You were young, it was a couple of weeks before I made the pact though. Your study time with me was almost up and I couldn't help myself. I bit your neck and drew blood which wasn't hard for me to do at all. I expected you to scream or kick or fight to something of that nature, but you did nothing. You're blood was sweet, but you never minded when I did it. I continued to do it several times up until I disappeared."

He ran his finger down one side of his neck as if he could still feel where the blood had run from. He smiled. "Want another try? I promise I'll be a good boy and won't scream," he said, his tone low and persuasive. There was a slight smile across his lips and he got up slowly to sit beside his ex-tutor.

Ryuho raised his eyebrows, but didn't refuse as Tsubaki leaned down in front of him. Ryuho sank his teeth in deep before pulling them out to lap at the blood that ran from the fresh wound.

He let his eyes close and then felt a slight pain as Ryuho bit into his neck and his blood began to spill out. But he didn't make a sound, meerly changing the angle of his head to allow the other better access to his blood and to make sure that not even a drop trickled away. The pain felt wonderful - for the longest time, it had had to be self-inflicted. A smile twitched onto his lips and he let out a slow breath.

Ryuho stopped drinking as the blood began to stifle it's flow, taking one last lick he sat back again in the chair. "You taste even better then I remember."Ryuho was smirking as he licked a stray drop of blood that had slipped to the corner of his mouth. Ryuho grabbed Tsubaki's hand and pulled him into his lap as sniffed at the open wound on Tsubaki's neck before healing it. "So tell me, what have you been up to besides doing evil deeds? What do you do in your spare time?"

"More evil deeds. I convince our neighboring countries that it's in their best interest to stay out of our matters. Of course, they don't know the gold they think they've got was swamped and is no more than ashes." He smiled and leaned against the other, feeling so comfortable in the man's lap that he decided to wrap his arms around his neck, his voice nearly purring as he spoke. "So, are you going to tell me anything of your mysterious travels?" he asked. For some reason, being close to the other put him at ease. He was new, but unchanged. They was familiarity between them but it wasn't stiffling. And, more importantly, Ryuho wasn't in his forties like all the useless people in his palace.

Ryuho smiled. Tsubaki really hadn't changed much at all. "The travels you speak of was more like a lapse in time. After I performed the sealing ritual for the first time I fainted. When I woke up I was in a strange land I didn't recognize, but I went to sleep. I just felt so tired I layed on the ground and when I woke up I was here. I was confused for a while, but it didn't take me long to get used to things and get things set up for me to live the way I needed to. You're father did pay well while I was working for him."

He smiled. "You were my favorite and the only person I listened to, even then. Of course he had to pay you well. How else would he have lived even this long?" he asked with a smirk. "The nurse's used to tell me that my father said my mother must have had an affair with Satan because I was the devil's son, not his. That is, before I began to hex them. They went quiet without their tongues." His eyes were glittering and even his dead eye seemed to glimmer. Perhaps it was because it's was the eye of a cruel, cold dragon, but for a moment even that eye seemed to be alive.

Ryuho smiled and pressed his face to the side of Tsubaki's neck, his lips brushing it as he spoke. "I'm glad you're starting to remember, young one. Same as always. I can't believe I never stopped you from being so bad." Ryuho wrapped his arms around Tsubaki's waist and pulled him in closer.

"Hnnn..." He closed his eyes, his face peaceful, and leaned his head against Ryuho's chest, nearly purring in the other's arms. "Do me one favor, will you? Stop calling me 'young one.' I'm old enough to have a name now..." he said, pouting slightly. "Five years isn't a big difference, is it?"
