He smiled at her, his face still a bit red. He was not angry or irritated, he just did not like the idea of him not being able to control himself better. "What do you wonder?" He asked curiously as he tilted his head. He wondered if she was uncomfortable right now, but he would ask that in a moment.

She stared at him for a moment, her expression unchanging as she considered things. "There is no way to ask other than to be straight forward .. Please understand I ask out of curiosity, not of judgment." she paused again, clearly thinking of what was on her mind. The way they were positioned, the feelings she believed they both shared .. she needed to know if she was understanding or simply being naive. "Do you .. desire to mate .. with me?" she looked almost apologetic as she revealed her question, hesitating on how she said this since it was a foreign thought to her, hoping he would not be uncomfortable or upset with her asking.

Reeve's face turned even more red at her question as he got a somewhat embarassed look on his face. It took a moment to answer her for some reason, perhaps he was trying to find the courage to answer. "I... would be lying if I said the desire was not there... especially now." He smiled to her, his face returning to it's normal color. Suddenly he seemed to get a little gleam in hhis eye as a thought popped into his head. "What about you Ziven?"

Blushing still, she smiled a little more, still looking to him with a timid curiosity. "Indeed, the same has crossed my mind." she replied quietly. Again she kissed his cheek and held her arms around him still after she did, though she was not uncomfortable, she was feeling rather awkward in the moment. "Not .. now .. But I have thought of it and I have a desire. It is very selfish of me, I know .. I need time to come to terms with a number of things." she said, smiling slightly, strongly hoping that he would understand that her logical side was battling with her instincts and heart, something she was unaccustomed to.

"Naw, your not selfish." He said with a smile. He slifted his weight a bit and suddenly began to float above her. "You need to watch the neck thing though... it helps fuel my desire for you greatly..." He chcukled lightly, his face having almost returned no normal. He winked at her for some reason, then kissed her lips gently.

Smiling again, she was relieved to hear his answer. "Do you wish to sleep together again?" she asked with a giggle after they kissed. Gently she touched his face still, happy they were having such a conversation and neither feeling upset.

His hands went to her waist again when she touched his face and he smiled. "Aye, that would be lovely. Did you know you are very beautiful when you sleep? You have a certain calmness that comes from you..." His eyes seemed to glow as he looked into hers. What had he done to deserve such a woman, and what did he have to do to keep her?

Blushing furiously, she squeaked and covered her face with her hands. Slowly she peeked through her fingers, blue eyes wide with lack of understanding and something else, a sliver of fear. Her words were muffled by her hands as she spoke. "Your words are far too flattering." she said and then squeaked again and covered her face fully with her hands again.

He tilted his head slightly, an odd feeling coming over his mind again. This time he almost pinpointed what it was... "Very well then, I shall stop." He released her, and with a small gust he was no longer floating above her.
He reappeared sitting on the stairs with his eyes closed, thinking. Not being able to find that odd feeling he sighed. Already the barriers that had been taken down were starting to rebuild.

Slowly she opened her eyes. When she realized he had disappeared, she sat up. Seeing him sitting there, she looked at him with a tragic expression, realizing she had upset him. Biting her lip, her eyes shown apology. This was so .. awkward .. she hardly knew what to do. For a moment, she turned away, considering leaving him like she tended to do so she would not make it worse, would not hurt him more. Then she remembered what was said earlier.
Slowly turning to him again, she slowly walked to him and lowered herself to her knees in front of him. Gently she took one of her hands in her own, giving a gentile squeeze. A moment later, she moved his hand so she was able to rest her forehead on the back of his hand, simply holding him. "I realize .. that I am different. My apologies for upsetting you. I seem to be as good at upsetting you as I am in making you happy. I am sorry." she said softly, kissing the back of his hand. She then nuzzled the back of his hand with her cheek.

"It was not your difference that upset me. It was that small amount of fear. I could hear it in your voice... I could even smell it, like beasts do." He watched what she did with his hand curiously bofore leaning towards her and kissing the top of her head gently. Again he felt the strangeness in his mind, the fact that he did not know what it was began to trouble him. From the hand that she did not hold there came a loud cracking sound, then the sounds of dropplets on the stairs. He moved his knee so that the blood would fall onto him instead of Ziven's house and gently pulled his hand away from her. The hand that she had been holding remained normal, but the other hand had turned into a claw made from his bones, ripping out from the skin on his fingertips. Though there was no hint of him being hurt at all, the sight looked as if it should have been very painfull. "Ziven... I need to do something right now. Please take a step back."

Raising her gaze, she looked to him with wide, questioning eyes. Why was he taking everything so personally? To her it made complete sense, she did not fear him, she feared herself. Beautiful? Ziven? That just was not so .. what had she done to enchant him this way, surely she had done something wrong to make him feel compelled to say such a thing. "No! I mean .. It is not you that I fear. You have shown me nothing but kindness, you --" she stopped. Even if he had not said anything, she would have stopped because the noise was enough that she could have heard it from across the room. Blue eyes examined him, trying to understand what was happening. She saw his hand, she still did not understand but she wished she did. Cupping one hand over her mouth, her eyes watched him with tearful anticipation for whatever might come next. "Certainly, anything you need, I will do what I can to provide." she said softly, rising from the floor and watching him, wanting to help him, wanting to undo whatever she did to cause this.

"Take a step back... that is all I need." He said as he looked at her with a soft smile. He could tell by the look on her face that she thought she had done something to cause his hand to turn into a claw. "Don't worry, this is not your fault. I am just worried about something..." Looking at the top of his hand for a moment, Reeve tried to think about what symbol to use. Finally he plunged one of the claws into his own skin. He began to etch something into his own skin, working very quickly and with expert precision.
Finally, after only a few moments worth of work, the symbol was complete. It was a horrible looking masterpiece. The whole time he worked he showed no sign of pain, not even a twitch. As soon as the last line was made on the symbol a very darkenergy seemed to leak from his hand... at this point there was no turning back. He looked at Ziven with a slight smile and placed his hand over his eyes. "Show me Vice..." He muttered.

"Reeve!" she exclaimed softly, not pleased with what he was doing to himself. This was all but washed away when the rune took. She backed not one but several steps away from him, feeling it having 'moved' when in use, as she would feel most magics unfamiliar to her. That which Reeve used was familiar to her both because he always used this magic but because the time she tried to read a piece of paper she tried to read on his behalf. Once she put distance between them, she did not feel it as much and was well enough watching him.

The rune pulsated as the magiks worked, releasing small amounts of energy into Reeve's mind. In his mind he was almost every level of the temple at once, but did not find any trace of his father. This disturbed him greatly. Next he saw visions of strange and horrible places, perhaps places his father had been to before, but still no sign of the man. Finally he got to the place where the RDS should have been... but saw nothing. The visions had gone dark for some reason. Suddenly the entire vision for him went silver... but Ziven would see something else. A silver light burst from his face, creating a line across it. When the light disappeared there was a deep cut.
Using all the might he had Reeve pulled his hand away from his face. The rune was pulsating madly, as if having a life of its own. Using his clawed had he destroyed the symbol and the magiks stopped. Along with the cut on his face there seemed to be blood coming from his eyes as well. "He put damaging spell on this place..." Reeve muttered to himself, seemingly unaware gash.
