Welcome to Gaia! ::

When Yoru Met Wiz(owner: LadyArivess) (Tsuki is also a part of this) (July 19, 2005):

((This takes place alittle after Tsuki and Yoru met, Tsuki and Yoru have found cookies in the kicthen, which is where the cookies come from. Also the two had been talking to Kukki and Takikori(Owner: Karalen) so that is why somethings won't really make since. sweatdrop ))


"I dunno. Cookie?" Yoru asked waving a cookie at Tsuki

"Cookie!" Tsuki nodded, deciding that the more serious Dreams were making no sense whatsoever.

Wiz strolled over to the little gathering around the cookies, watching for now.

Yoru spots the white dream that just joined them and held up the box of cookies. "Hi! I'm Yoru. Do you wants a cookie?"

Wiz tilted his head. Cookie?

Tsuki blinked a few times, surprised at the voice in his head.


Yoru jumped when he heard a voice in his head that he didnt recognize. "Ah! New voice in my head!"

Wiz turned towards him. I'm the voice in your head.

Yoru's eyes widened. "How did you get in my head?! And how can you talk without moving your lips?"

I dunno. Wiz looked around. Why are you inside your head too?

Yoru shrugs. "I dunno. I was just born in my head, I guess...hmm...so, yous wants a cookie?"

Okies. Wiz pondered this for a moment. There's cookies in your head?

"No...at least I dun think so...hmmm...but I do have some right here." Yoru waved the box of cookies he was holding.

This isn't inside your head anymore? Now Wiz was really confused.

Yoru was also very confused now. "Umm...you is talking in my head but the cookies are in my hands."

Wiz became even more confused. So I'm not inside your head after all?

"Your voice is in my head but you aren't...I think."

Oooh, I see. Wiz smiled in relief and took a cookie. ...I think.

"I'm Yoru."

I'm Wiz, Wiz announced proudly.
"
And I'm Tsuki!" The red Dream introduced.

...I know you! Wiz's eyes widened. You're supposed to be my brother!

"Eh?"

"Hi Wiz." Yoru was confused again. "I thought Tsuki had no brothers or sisters."

Tsuki nodded. "Tsuki doesn't..."

Wiz grinned. That's 'cause I just became Tsuki's brother today! Ari said so.

"Oh," Yoru said sadly. 'I guess that means Tsuki won't want me as a brother now,' thought Yoru.

Tsuki looked at Yoru. "Why ish you sad?"

"'Cause you has a brother."

Tsuki blinked and suddenly tackle-glomped Yoru. "But you ish still Tsuki's brother!"

"Eep!" Yoru fell over as he was tackle-glomped by Tsuki. "Really?"

Tsuki nodded. "Yesh!"

"Yay!" Yoru hugged Tsuki.

Tsuki grinned and hugged Yoru back.

"I was scared you wouldn't want me as a brother anymore."

Tsuki shook his head. "Nu! You ish the bestest brother ever!"

Wiz pouted. What about me...?

"Er..." Tsuki blinked, confusing himself. "You ish also the bestest brother?"

"I not the bestest brother ever. Just ask Uozia."

((Uozia is Yoru's younger Sister))

Tsuki padded over to Uozia with a pout and pointed at Yoru. "He ish the bestest brother ever, right?"

Uozia looked at the dream that approched her. "He is a great brother. I love him alot. Why do you ask?"

Tsuki looked teary-eyed at her. "'Cause he says you says he not!"

"I never said that nor will i ever say that. Yoru is an excellent brother!"

Tsuki nodded. "He the bestest!"

"That he is."

Tsuki bounced back over to Yoru. "See, she said you ish the bestest."

"Really?"

Tsuki nodded. "Yesh!"

"Yay!"

Tsuki decided to take out more cookies to celebrate.

Yoru passed out the cookies that he had to the other dreams in the room.

Tsuki nibbled on the cookie happily.

Wiz smiled. Thankies!

"Welcome-ness Wiz."

September 2, 2005: Yoru Finds Out That Tsuki(Owner: LadyArivess) is tickleish:

Yoru suddenly decided to see if ''Ki was tickleish and started to randomly tickle him all over.

Tsuki tilted his head, wondering what Yoru was doing, and suddenly burst out laughing uncontrollably as Yoru tickled his midsection. "Eeeee!"

"Yay! Victory! You are ticklelish! I was right! Mwahaha!" exclaimed Yoru as he continued to tickle Tsuki.

"Eep, you ish!" Tsuki declared, dissolving into fits of giggling as he tried to roll around and out of the way.

"Mwahaha!" Yoru was proud of himself, for he had found a weakness in 'Ki. He continued to tickle him.

"Eee!" Tsuki continued to squeal and giggle. "Tsuki ish going to find yous's tickly spot too!"

"No you won't!"

"Yesh, Tsuki will!" the red Dream declared, though he was in no position to do anysuch thing.

"No you won't!"

"Yesh, Tsuki wiiiiill!" Tsuki insisted and fell into another laughing, squriming fit.

"No you won't!" Yoru pounced on top of 'Ki and tickled him still.

"Yesh wiiiiill!" Tsuki squealed as he tried to gain enough control to tickle-attack back.

"Nuh uh!! You shall not know! No one shall know or find out!"

"Yesh, Tsuki shaaaall!" Tsuki struggled to bring up a paw and managed to lightly tap Yoru on the arm.

"Nu! You shall never find it! For I shall keep you like this! Mwahahaha!" Yoru continued to tickle 'Ki and when 'Ki's paw tap his arm he held said arm down.

"Oh nu!" Tsuki declared, still laughing. "But Tsuki's going to keep trying!"

"You can try, but you won't succeed!"

"But ish saying that if yous dun s''ceed, yous gotsta try ''gain!"

"Nu!"

"Yesh!" Tsuki insisted and reached up his other paw.

"No you don't!" Yoru stopped the paw from touching him.

Tsuki tilted his head and turned his paw slightly so that it was tickling the bottom of Yoru's paw-that-was-holding-his-down.

"Eep!" Yoru pulled his paw back for a second then continued to tickle 'Ki.

"Aha!" Tsuki giggled and tried harder to tickle Yoru's paw again.

"Not touchy paw!"

Tsuki reached for the paw again, a big grin on his face. "Touchy paw!"

"No! no touchy paw!" Yoru ran off before 'Ki could tickle his paw and eventually find his other ticklish spot.

"Paaaaaaaw!" Tsuki squealed and ran after Yoru. "Touchy-touchy paw!"

"Nooooo! No touchy paw!"

"Yes touchy!" Tsuki whined and kept chasing.

Yoru, pouting with tears in his eyes, turned to 'Ki, "No touchy paw."

Tsuki sniffled. "Why no touchy?"

"I no like it when people touch my paws," he said sadly. It had something to do with his past he refuses to tell anyone about.

"Oh..." Tsuki nuzzled Yoru's cheek slightly, not wanting him to be sad. "Then Tsuki no touchy!"

"Yeah." Yoru snuggled up to 'Ki. "You won't?"

Tsuki nodded and snuggled back. "Tsuki won't."

"Thank you," he said feeling a little happier.

Tsuki smiled and looked around, trying to find something to change the subject.

Yoru smiled up at 'Ki cutely, and saw him looking around. "What is you looking for?"

"Something fun!" Tsuki said. "Like... THAT!" He pointed to Glacier's((Owner: LadyArivess)) painting.

((I'll end that here))

September 18, 2005: Has Yoru found his mate?

*Tsuki Belongs to LadyArivess.*

((This starts out just after Tsuki finished add Yoru into Glacier's(Tsuki's sister) painting, and Yoru said he liked the way Tsuki painted him))

"Tsuki glad!" Tsuki declared and glomped Yoru.

"Eep!" Yoru fell over when 'Ki glomped him. "Me is glad you is glad!"

"Tsuki ish glad you ish glad Tsuki ish glad!"

"Yesh! Wait...Wha?" Yoru was confused.

Tsuki blinked. What did he say? "Erm... Tsuki dunno..."

"Hmm...Me either! But you is happy right?

Tsuki nodded. "Yesh! Tsuki ish happy!"

"Yay! That's good." Yoru hugged 'Ki tightly. "Luff-ed you!"

Tsuki hugged him back, a happy smile on his face. "Luff you too!"

Yoru cuddled up to 'Ki. "You're soft!" Yoru giggled.

Tsuki purred and nuzzled Yoru. "You ish softer."

"Nuh uh! 'Ki is softer!"

"Nu, you ish!" Tsuki declared and leaned closer to prove his point. "See? Tha's why Tsuki ish comfortable."

"No, you are!" Yoru tackles 'Ki to the ground and lays on his chest. "That is why me is so comfy!"

Tsuki purred. "But Tsuki ish more comfy!"

"Nuh uh! I am more comfy!"

"Nu, Tsuki ish!"

"No! I ish more comfy!" A tear rolled down Yoru's cheek.

Tsuki widened his eyes. "Eep, no cry!"

Yoru sniffled. "But you no agree with me, and it makes me sad." cry

"Tsuki will agree with you if it makes you no sad!" Tsuki declared, not really remember what they were agreeing or disagreeing with anyway.

Yoru wiped his eyes. "Thankies, 'Ki!" Yoru snuggled into 'Ki's chest.

Tsuki purred and huggled Yoru.

Yoru licked 'Ki on the nose.

Tsuki wrinkled his nose a little, out of surprise and not displeasure. He laughed and licked Yoru back.

Yoru saw 'Ki wrinkle his nose and was worried that he did something wrong, then 'Ki licked him back and drove all those worries away.

Tsuki huggled him randomly. "Tsuki luffs you."

Yoru was shocked for a second then hugged Tsuki back. "Luff you too, 'Ki!"

Tsuki smiled happily.

"You is so prettier when you smile!"

"Really?" Tsuki asked, eyes wide. "...Well, you's pretty all the time. heart "

"Yes you are very pretty when you smile and you, too, are pretty all the time." Yoru blushed alittle.

Tsuki smiled and nuzzled his cheek. "You ish so cute when you blush!"

Yoru blushed harder. "Really?"

Tsuki nodded. "Really!"

Yoru, still blushing, smiled a little then looked down. "Thankies."

Tsuki nuzzled him under his chin, trying to raise his head again.

Yoru lifted his head.

Tsuki smiled and licked his nose.

Yoru smiled shyly and blushed again.

Tsuki grinned happily.

Yoru licked Tsuki's cheek and nuzzled his chest.

Tsuki purred and cuddled him.

Yoru cuddled back. "Mmm...comfy."

Tsuki snuggled. "Mmmm, yesh."

Yoru smiled and decided to take his chances. He kissed Tsuki.

Tsuki widened his eyes in surprise before leaning in close and kissing Yoru back.

This moment is the happiest moment of Yoru's life. He had never felt as happy as he has at this moment when he and Tsuki were kissing. Yoru continued to kiss Tsuki a little longer, then pulled back smiling happily at his now, he hoped, boyfriend.

Tsuki had a dazed look on his face as he stared and smiled at Yoru.

"Thank you," Yoru said giving Tsuki a hug.

Tsuki snuggled into the hug. "Love you~"

Yoru smiled softly at Tsuki. "Love you, too."

Tsuki smiled and kept staring at Yoru.

Yoru started to feel rather self-conscious and nervous with Tsuki staring at him. "Tsuki? Why is you staring at me? Did I do something wrong? Is there something wrong with me?"

"Nu!" Tsuki shook his head frantically. "Tsuki ish staring 'cause you's pretty."

Yoru blushed. "Thank you. You is very pretty too," he said shyly.

"Not as pretty as you~!"

"Nuh uh! You is much prettier!"

"Nuuuu, Tsuki thinks you's much prettier."

"No, I's thinks you is much prettier then me!"

"But Tsuki thinks you's prettier..."

((Now enter Gabriel(Owner: Karalen)))

"Ungh..." Gabriel muttered as she continued to hear their voices. If they kept it up, she'd be getting as much, if not less sleep than her owner was now! Growling lightly and keeping her face hidden, she exclaimed to the two male Dreams, "Shut up! Your voices are jarring, and I'm trying to sleep!"

Tsuki widened his eyes and started to cry. "WAAAAAAAAAAH!"

"You is just jealous!" Yoru yelled back at the blue dream. He gave Tsuki a big hug and wiped the tears off his cheeks. "It's okay, Tsuki! She is just jealous that we have each other and she has no one." He nuzzled Tsuki. "I love you, Tsuki!"

Jealous? Jealous? How dare he suggest...?!

"For your information, I'm perfectly happy that I don't have someone to tie me down." Gabriel muttered loudly, growling slightly. "I simply want sleep. I've been awake for 32 hours, and I would appreciate a little peace and quiet for once!" She buried her face in her arms again, groaning.

"Then you came to the wrong place! We is always loud here!"

"There is no other place!" growled Gabriel, flashing her silver eyes at Yoru. "I've tried everywhere, and all I hear is noise!" Jumping down from the couch, she walked straight toward Yoru and Tsuki. "For once, I'd appreciate if people would just shut up for at least an hour, letting me get at least a little rest!" Instead of lashing out at the two, she simply walked between them, separating them momentarily before going on towards one of the doors, hoping it would be a bedroom. "I have to finish my novel, and I can't with everyone constantly making noises!"

"Well, sorry! It's hard for me and Tsuki to be quiet since we are naturally loud, hyper dreams!" Yoru glared at the blue dream when she separated him for Tsuki, then quickly pulled Tsuki back into his arms when she was out of the way.

Tsuki snuggled against Yoru, still a little pouty. "She's mean..."

Yoru kissed the top of Tsuki's head. "Yeah, she is, but don't worry about her. I shall protect you from her, I promise."

Tsuki sniffled. "Really?"

Yoru nodded. "Yes, really. I love you and I won't let anything happen to you."

Tsuki purred and huggled him. "Thank you, Yoru. I love you too."

Yoru huggled him back. "You're welcome."

((Enter Valkyrie))

Gabriel closed her eyes, letting the insults roll off of her back harmlessly. Why would she want to waste her emotions on anyone, anyway? She passed by Valkyrie, then asked her softly, "Is there a bedroom around here anywhere?"

Tsuki kept huggling Yoru. "But Tsuki wonders why she's so mean... People aren't like that for no reason."

"Actually some people are just mean, like Val for instance, she is mean and has no reason to be so."

"Yeah, upstairs, second door on the right. It's sound proof so you won't have to here the racus that my insane brother and his friend make."

"Thank God." Gabriel muttered, then moved past Valkyrie and towards the bedroom the summer Dream pointed out. Already, she gave a huge yawn, stretching her front lets forward before continuing on her way. She intended on taking a very, very long nap.

"I know the feeling."

"But Dreams shouldn't just be mean..."

"I know, but some is. That's just they way some dreams are, unfortuntely."

"Okies..." Tsuki was still confuzzled about this topic, but decided to give up.

October 3, 2005: A Nightmare?!

((Okay, at this point Yoru has a sprained ankle, which happened during a game he and Tsuki(Owner: LadyArivess) were playing. Tsuki just carried Yoru over to a couch))

"Thank you, Tsuki!" Yoru pecked Tsuki on the lips. "You want to lay here with me?"

Tsuki nodded, a bit too breathless to talk, and climbed on next to him.

Yoru wanted to snuggle closer to Tsuki but was afraid he would hurt his paw more. "You too far away."

"Mmmkay..." Tsuki scooted closer and snuggled with him.

"Mmmm, much better." Yoru yawned and smiled at Tsuki. "You is warm and soft and fluffy, and cuddly, and make a great pillow."

"Mmmm, 'm glad you like..." Tsuki yawned as well and nuzzled him.

"Me like lots." Yoru starts to dozed off a bit. He is really tired, and with Tsuki being so warm it is better than being in a bed, at least to Yoru that is.

Tsuki held still, letting Yoru sleep.

Yoru sighed happily in his sleep moved as close as he could to Tsuki without hurting his ankle.

Tsuki nuzzled him and gently licked his cheek.

Yoru smiled in his sleep happily.

Tsuki "awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww"ed quietly, careful not to wake Yoru.

Yoru's smile started to slowly fade and started to shake alittle. He had slipped into another one of his not-so-rare nightmares.

"Y-Yoru?" Tsuki widened his eyes, panicking. What happened? Did he do something wrong?

Yoru started to whimper and shake harder.

"Yoruuuu!" Tsuki got really worried now and nuzzled Yoru frantically.

Yoru started to mutter in his sleep, and steadily got louder and more clear. "No, mommy, daddy!" he muttered over and over. "NO!!!" Yoru jerked awake and was sobbing uncontrolably.

"Yoru...!" Tsuki pulled him close and huggled him tightly. "Shhhh, Yoru, you had a bad dream. It's all right now. I'm here... I'll protect you..."

Yoru sniffled and tried to stop crying and clung to Tsuki tightly. "B-b-b-ut it was s-s-s-s-s-so real! It was like I was seeing it happen all over again only worse 'cause you where also there!" Yoru broke down again.

"Well, I'm not there, I'm here." Tsuki clung to him as well and nuzzled him gently. "See? It's all right."

"Are you sure? I really don't want the same thing that happened to them happen to you."

"Nothing will happen to me," Tsuki said reassuringly, all the while wondering what happened to "them" and who they were.

Yoru relaxed a tiny bit and gave Tsuki a big hug. "I love you," he whipsered just loud enough for Tsuki to hear.

Tsuki smiled softly and licked Yoru's cheek. "I love you too."

Yoru wiped his eyes with his good paw, finally calming down a bit. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to worry you."

Tsuki smiled a little, turning back to his normal self now that Yoru calmed down. "Ish okies, no worries!"

"You sure?"

Tsuki nodded. "Yesh, Tsuki sure!"

"Me is also sorry for crying all over you."

"Ish okies!" Tsuki reassured him and licked his cheek again.

"You sure?"

Tsuki nodded. "Really sure!"

"Okay." Yoru clung to Tsuki. "You are not leaving my sight!"

Tsuki clung back and nuzzled him. "Tsuki dun wanna leave your sight anyway."

"Good, 'cause I wouldn't let you leave my sight even if you wanted to leave it. Not after that nightmare." Yoru shuddered.

"Aww, bad nightmare!" Tsuki huggled Yoru closer. "Tsuki will go get rid of it!"

"I wish you could, Tsuki, but I don't think anyone can make it go away."

"But Tsuki wiiiiiiiill!"

"You can't, no one can. It's impossible. That nightmare will always be there no matter what. You may be able to help them become less frequent."

"Okies, then Tsuki will do that."

Yoru hugged Tsuki tightly. "Thank so much for everything Tsuki. I don't know how I will ever repay you."

"You dun need to repay." Tsuki blinked.

"I know, but I feel I must. I don't know why. I just do."

"Well," Tsuki said solemnly, "just being here is 'nuff repayment."

"It is? Are you sure? If there is anything me can do for you just tell me! Me luff you Tsuki!"

"Nu, ish enough! 'Cause Tsuki luffs you too!"

"Okay. Me will always be here with you Tsuki! Just like you are with me!"

"Yay!" Tsuki cheered and hugged Yoru.

"Me glad you ish happy!" heart

"And Tsuki happy you ish glad Tsuki ish happy!"

"Um...Yes!"

Tsuki smiled, glad that Yoru "agrees".

"Tsuki you are so good to me!" Yoru huggled Tsuki.

"Tha's 'cause Tsuki luffs you~!" Tsuki explained cheerfully and hugged him back.

"Me luff you too!"

"Yay! Luffluffluff!"

"Yesh! Lotsa luff!"

"'Causecause luff ish good!"

"Yesh very good!" Yoru smiled.

((Going back in time a little))

August 29, 2005: Yukio and Zerin(Owner: Karalen) Meet and Hit if off right away.

((Both Kara and I take part in this))

Karalen sat on the deck with a still-sleeping Shikai in her lap, looking out over the water. She, along with just about everyone else, had heard about what happened between Seifer and Katana. She was sad about that, for she knew those two were very close. Yet, a part of her was happy, but for a different reason. She grinned and bounced slightly. Oh, she had some news to tell to everyone!

Zerin sat beside Karalen, his tail constantly brushing across his owner's leg when he had the chance. Heck, he wasn't lying when he said he would hit on Dreams, Fancies, Deejarne, Nightmares, Yudou, any other type of Dream, AND humans!

Yukio floated on to the deck to see who all was on, and if anyone look interesting. He soon noticed everyone he saw looked sad. 'I wonder why everyone looks so sad.' he thought to himself. He shrugged and decided to float over to wear a girl with a sleeping dream in her lap and blue one next to the girl to see if they were interesting, or would be fun to be around.

"Ah, company..." Zerin muttered, then walked towards the Fancie. "Helloooo..." he said, sauntering over to Yukio.

"Don't mind him." Karalen said to Yukio, smiling a little. She seemed to be the only person on deck that looked happy...

"Hi! I'm Yukio," he said to the two. "You're pretty!" he said pointing to the blue dream.

"Heh heh..." Zerin replied, twirling slight. "I know I am. In fact, you're quite pretty yourself." He sauntered even closer to the Fancie.

Karalen gave a nervous chuckle before looking around. "Where's the other human girls? I have good news for them!"

Yukio blushed a little. "Thank you," he said shyly.

"Hiya Kara!" Rae said as she came up from below deck. "What's up?"

"You're quite welcome." Zerin responded, nuzzling Yukio affectionately. He was such a flirt...

"Vamp!" Karalen called out, grinning. "I have great news!"

Yukio blushed a little more and scooted closer to Zerin, as he was being nuzzled.

"Really? What, may I ask, is this great news? Did you save hundreds of dollars on car insurence by switching to Geico?" asked Rae.

Zerin gave a mix between a smile and a smirk as he kept nuzzling Yukio. "So, what's a beauty like you doing out here?"

"No." Karalen answered, grinning like an idiot. "Takikori and Ejhani had babies! Three new Whisps! He called me telepathically and told me about it! I think he's still in shock or something."

"My owner brought me here and it was boring down there," he said pointing to the stairs that lead to below deck.

"Yay! Babehs! That's so awesome!" Rae hugged Kara. "Congrats on your dream and his love having babehs!"

Zerin looked at the stairs before casting the rest of his attention on Yukio. "Mm, I see... well, I feel lucky you came up here." Zerin muttered, a soft purr escaping as he spoke.

"Thanks!" Karalen responded, hugging Rae in return. "I bet they're so beautiful! I can't wait 'til Takikori gets back!" She suddenly let go of Rae and blinked. "That means I'm a grandma, doesn't it?"

"Really? Why is that?" Yukio asked shyly.

"Welcome! I can't wait to see them!" Rae thought for a second. "Yes it would, but you is like Plushi now. And dun go thinking you are old, because you are not old!"

"'Cause you're probably one of the most beautiful creatures I have ever laid my eyes on." Zerin answered, nuzzling Yukio again. He did find Yukio quite beautiful, so he wasn't lying about that at all.

"I know, I know." she answered, laughing softly. "Takikori will probably let his child call me some fancy name instead of plain old 'grandma'."

Yukio was red as a tomato now. "Thank you. You are very gorgous yourself."

"Good. I wonder what he'll call you?"

Zerin gave a soft grin before nuzzling his cheek right against Yukio's. "Mm. I know. Thanks." He swished his tail, letting it gently brush across Yukio's small body.

"I dunno... some fancy name." Karalen replied, not wanting to bring up how Katana calls Plushi by her fancy name.

Yukio shivered a little when Zerin's tail brushed across him. "You're welcome." Yukio sighed happily. He was really glad he decided to come up here.

"I can't wait to find out what it is! This is all so exciting!"

Zerin gave another smile, a softer one, before moving closer, seeming to shelter Yukio's smaller body with his own. Well... this was the first time someone didn't slap him or push him away...

Karalen grinned, showing her excitement as well, then glanced over at Zerin, groaning. "There he goes again..." she muttered to Vamp.

Yukio cuddled up to Zerin's chest.

"What's he doing?" Rae asked looking at the two dreams.

Zerin gave a content sigh while nuzzling Yukio again. Ah, he could get used to this...

"Zerin's flirting again." Karalen whispered, not letting Yukio hear. "And apparently, your Fancie's going for it."

"You're all fuzzy and warm...I like it!" Yukio said softly.

"I knew that! Yeah, even though he doesn't show it, he likes getting attention like that. He seems innocent and shy, but really he can be quite uninnocent. He sometimes leads others on...but by the way he is getting all cuddle-y with Zerin, I'd say he really means what he is doing. He doesn't get that close to those he is just messing with," Rae whispered back.

A chuckle escaped from Zerin, then he raised a paw to feel Yukio's back. "You're quite sleek yourself... heh, I like that!"

"Mm." Karalen replied, smiling a bit, still whispering. "Zerin's never had anyone actually warm up to his ways before. Usually, they'd push him away, glare at him, or slap him. I dunno why he does it... He's actually quite different when he's alone."

"Thankies," Yukio responded and cuddled closer to Zerin.

"Really? Poor guy. Maybe he just wants the attention? Or maybe he doesn't know how to go about it any other way?" Rae suggested. "They do look cute though, don't they?"

((Enter Greed and Loki (Owner: The Plushi)))

"Don't knock it 'til you've tried it," Loki said with one of his manic grins. He was sitting on the crossbar at the bottom of where the main sail would have been had they been sailing. His feet were a couple feet above the pair of girls he was addressing. "I've been a satyr since I was about fourteen and I don't intend to stop anytime soon."

Greed chuckled and matched Loki's grin. He was carefully perched next to the teenager on the narrow wooden beam. "There's nothin' wrong with havin' a good woman or man, to help relieve you of some bodily stress."

Rae jumped and looked up "Hi Loki, Greed! You guys startled me," she said. "I never said it was a bad thing," Rae pointed out.

Zerin muttered a "Mm." before moving his head down to rest against Yukio's. Here, finally, was someone who didn't push him away...

Karalen turned to Loki and Greed, grinning. "Hiya! Guess what? My Deejarne had babies!"

"You are really nice, did you know that?" commented Yukio.

"I heard. Congrats." Loki plucked a dark blue flower out of the air and dropped it down to Karalen. "Send Takikori my regards."

"...I thought you hated children, Loki..."

Loki grinned again. "I'm up here. If they're even on the ship, they're down there." He gestured down to the girls. "And obviously they're not up for eating."

Rae giggled."Up for eating what?" she asked.

Loki frowned and, amazingly, pouted. He shifted on the beam so he was leaning against the mast and resting his legs on the piece of wood.

Greed laughed. "The babies. They're not for eating," he clarified with a grin.

"Oh! I knew that!" exclaimed Rae.

"Am I?" Zerin asked, looking down at Yukio. "People usually say I'm obnoxious." He laughed softly. "Karalen told me it might be a disease of mine, or something. Obnoxiousness..."

Karalen caught the blue flower and twirled it in her hand, wondering what it was supposed to mean. "Uh... thanks, Loki!" she replied, grinning.

Yukio tilted his head a little. "Really? I don't find you obnoxious at all. I find you quite sweet," he said cutely.

"Sweet, eh?" Zerin asked, then blinked, having realized something. "Oh, I never told you my name!" Leaning down to rest his head against Yukio's, Zerin muttered, "The name's Zerin."

"Yes, sweet, very sweet," he replied. "Zerin. That's a very pretty name. It fits you, since you are very pretty also."

"I know, I know." Zerin replied, though he chuckled softly while saying it. "But hey, your name's pretty too... beautiful, like you." Moving down, he closed his eyes as he gave the Fancie a lick on the cheek, signifying a kiss on the cheek.

"Thank you." Yukio blushed when Zerin licked him and cuddled closer to him.

"No problem." Zerin replied, wrapping his tail around Yukio to hold him close. Well... this was new. And different. But in a good way, really.

"Awwww..." Karalen cooed, her eyes shining as she watched Zerin and Yukio.


"Hmm...this is comfy," sighed Yukio happily.

"Awww...They are so adorable!"

"It is..." Zerin breathed, closing his eyes and smiling. Yup, he could definitely get used to this...

Karalen leaned towards Vamp while replying, "They are! Just wait, I betcha five bucks that they'll be able to breed soon!"

"It is..." Zerin breathed, closing his eyes and smiling. Yup, he could definitely get used to this...

Karalen leaned towards Vamp while replying, "They are! Just wait, I betcha five bucks that they'll be able to breed soon!"

"You smell nice," said Yukio.

"I don't have five bucks. I'm broke. But I hope they do breed. The babies could be so cute, just like them.

"Do I?" Zerin asked, nuzzling the top of Yukio''s head. Well, he did put on a tiny bit of cologne this morning... He liked the smell of it, that''s all!

"They would!" Karalen replied, seeming to squeal. Then she fished for her wallet, opening it and looking at the bills in her wallet. "Well, all I have are twenties..."

"Yeah you do," he snuggled as close as he could to Zerin. He really liked Zerin.

"Yesh!" Rae seemingly squealed back. "Lucky, I wish I had more moneys."

"Thanks." the blue Dream replied, pulling Yukio a little closer. "So do you." He really liked Yukio... and not in the way that he usually 'liked' other creatures. He bent his head down to give Yukio a tiny lick on his forehead.

"I wish I did too... I'll never survive college with just this!" Karalen exclaimed, pouting.

"You're welcome. And Thankies." Yoru purred a little when Zerin licked his forehead and tried to get even closer to Zerin. Yukio could no doubt get used to this.

"Really? College is that expensive?" Rae asked.

Zerin smiled at Yukio's attempt to get closer, though they were already practically glued together right now. Oh, how badly Zerin wanted to kiss Yukio right now, though not on the cheek or the forehead...

"Well... you gotta buy all the stuff you need, like food and such, on your own... Unless your parents live nearby." Karalen replied, sighing.

Man did he want kiss him badly, but he wasn't sure how Zerin would react, though he was pretty sure Zerin would like it, but he wasn't sure, so he didn't.

"Wow...I'm glad I still have 2 years before college."

Zerin, deciding to risk it all, leaned down and placed his lips against Yukio's in a chaste, gentle fashion.

"It's not all that ba-" Karalen was cut off when she looked at Zerin and Yukio. "EEEE!" she squealed out.

((Continued in next post))

Zerin pulled away slowly, not wanting to go too fast for Yukio. He then smiled down at the Fancie and nudged him gently, still speaking in a teasing tone. "Awake now?"

"...Heh heh heh." Karalen snickered, grinning while watching the Dreams. Oh, how she liked the couple...

"Yes," Yukio pouted.

"I agree, Kara, I agree."

Zerin chuckled, moving down to kiss Yukio's pouting lips gently. "Mm, why are ya pouting?" he asked the Fancie.

"Mmmhmmmm." Karalen replied, giving what seemed to be a devilish grin.

"'Cause you woke me up, and I was comfy and warm and I didn't want to move," he whined.

"What are you up to?" Rae asked seeing Kara's devilish looking smile.

"Sorry 'bout that." Zerin replied, then licked the top of Yukio's in apology. "How about when we're both sleepy; Then you can get in that position again?"

"If we breed 'em... I might be able to get a Fancie!" Karalen exclaimed, grinning.

"Are you really sorry?" he asked. "When will you be tired?" Yukio really wanted to go back to sleeping in that position. It felt so right and it was almost as if his body fit perfectly with Zerin's.

"That's right! You may get a fancie! I hope you do!"

"Mm, probably soon." Zerin muttered, then looked up at the moon. "Then again, I'm more of a night person..."

"I hope so too!" Karalen said while widening her grin. She reached down to a large bag by her side, which held her gold. "I'd rather not spend just about all my gold trying to buy a Fancie."

"I am usually a night person also, but the thought of sleeping in your arms again makes me want to go to sleep sooner," Yukio said. He wasn't tired, he just really wanted to lay in Zerin's arms and against Zerin's chest again. He liked the feeling of having Zerin there, and so close.

"Heh, yeah they are expensive. I spent half my gold buying Calin," Rae said.

"I see..." Zerin muttered, wrapping his tail around Yukio again and pulling him close to his chest. "Kinda makes me wanna go to sleep too."

"And with all that I want for my Fancie, I'm sure it'll be 17k instead of 15k." Karalen muttered, wincing at the thought.

Yukio snuggled closer to Zerin as Zerin's tail wrapped around him and pulled him closer. "Yeah. I'm feeling sleepy already."

"Whoa, mine was only 10k, but then again it was only two colors(excluding the eye color). What all do you want on it?" Rae asked shocked at how much Kara's fantasy fancie would cost.

"Heh heh. I guess I am too." Zerin whispered, still looking up at the moon. Ah, how he loved the night life...

Yukio smiled contently. "Hey, Zerin? Why do you like the night life so much?"

"Eh... I don't know." Zerin replied, smiling down at Yukio. "I supposed it's because no one can really see me at that time. Everyone has gone to bed, and I can do whatever I want without anyone knowing about it. The only people who are awake are cool people... not saying you're not cool, in fact, I think you're even cooler than them. But... I guess I just like the night." Zerin replied, blinking. He didn't really know why he liked the night...

"Oh, that makes sense. You really think I'm cool?"

"Mmhmmm, very cool." Zerin muttered, yawning a little. Okay, now he was getting tired. He didn't know why, but he felt so tired now... He leaned a little of his weight against Yukio. "Cool..."

"I think you are very cool also." Yukio saw Zerin yawn. "Sleepy?"

"Mm, yeah... kinda." Zerin replied, then gave Yukio a little smirk. "We could go to one of the private rooms, and you could keep me awake all night."

"Hmm...but why would I want to keep you awake all night, when I want you to sleep so I can be all comfy again?"

"Oh, don't you worry. You'll still be comfortable, believe me." Zerin gave a wink before brushing his tail along Yukio's antennae again.

"Oh really? But what if I want to be in the same position as I was when you decided to be mean and wake me up?" Yukio pouted, then shivered as Zerin's tail brushed against his antennae again.

Zerin seem to give a small pout, then muttered an "Okay, okay." before nuzzling the top of Yukio's head.

Yukio saw the small pout that Zerin had on his lovely face and thought he had done something to upset him. "I did not mean to make you sad. You are not mean at all, I was just teasing you." Yukio gave Zerin a peck on the lips, then cuddled up to his chest.

"Nah, nah, it's okay." Zerin replied, giving a quick kiss in return. "I know I'm not mean. You know you love me!" he exclaimed teasingly.

"How can it be okay if I made you sad?" Yukio asked. "Yes, I do, very much so."

"I'm not sad, believe me." Zerin gave Yukio a light kiss before grinning. "Heh, I knew it!"

"You aren't? Really?" Yukio cuddled closer and wrapped his paws around Zerin's neck in a hug and left them there. "How did you know that?"

"Really. I'm not." With that, Zerin gave a playful smirk. "Because... I'm psychic!"

"Yay! I am glad I did not make you sad. I do not like making others sad." Yukio gave Zerin another hug. "Now that is just scary right there."

"It takes a lot to make me sad." Zerin muttered, hugging Yukio in return while nuzzling the top of his head. "Though when I am sad, watch out! I get a headache afterwards."

"Well I hope I never make you sad. Making people sad makes me sad. Headaches are the worst, I hate getting them. I do not get them often so that is good, but Miss. Rae gets them all the time, almost everyday."

"I doubt you'll make me sad." Zerin replied, resting his chin on top of Yukio's head. "Not many people know how to, anyway..." he added as a soft whisper.

"I hope not." Yukio cuddled closer to his love. "That's good that not many know how to make you sad."

"Mm, it is. Then I'm never sad, which, in turn, makes me less scary." Zerin replied, grinning.

"And if you aren't sad then I won't be sad either!" Yukio said happily. "Wait, you can be scary? I have yet to see that side of you." Yukio smiled sweetly and tried to look innocent.

"And ya don't want to see that side." Zerin muttered, his expression serious. "I hope ya don't see that side of me, anyway. But hey, when you're happy, I'm happy." With that, he gave another grin.

"Oh, okay." Yukio licked Zerin. "I hope so also. Well, I'm happy now!"

Zerin grinned, then made a dramatic pose while exclaiming, "Then I'm happy too!"

Yukio giggled. "Yay! That's good."

"Yup, it definitely is." Zerin then winked and added with an obvious dramatic and fake tone, "'Cause if I'm sad, then all the world will drown in the babes' tears!"

"If you are sad then I will be sad and then the world would be sad." Yukio looked a little confused. "Wait, say that again please. I didn't quite understand that."

Yukio nudged Zerin. "Are you awake?"

"Mrrr?" Zerin muttered, opening an eye. Blinking, he looked towards his owner, wondering what the screaming was about. His eyes widended upon seeing his newly hatched sister, and he nudged Yukio before exclaiming, "Yukio, look! My sister hatched!"

"So, you were asleep! Sorry if I woke you." Yukio looked towards Zerin's owner. "Aww! She is so precious! Look at her! She's so adorable!"

"...Aaaand she just rolled into a bunch of Seifers((Owner: The Plushi))."
