~Moving painfully forward ~

It had been driving him crazy, ever since he left the facility after his talk with Duncan it had been one sleepless night after another. He had promised that he would leave Duncan alone to think, but...this waiting was agonizing. Trying to keep his mind off of things he flicked his computer on and waited for it to boot.

Bored he started googling apartments that were in the area, now that he was older...he felt that he shouldn't be living off his mother anymore. But he didn't have a job....so how was he going to accomplish moving out? When he mentioned this to his mother she addmited that she had saved up money to send him to college outside of the facility...but he could use the money any way he wanted.

It wasn't a lot, but enough to get him by for a couple of months anyway. Clicking each place he found one that suited his needs. A bachlor pad, non smoking no pets. He didn't have to worry about pets...or smoking. But when he looked up the address he had to ...stop himself from frowning. It was...too close. Yes definitely too close to a strip club.

But...the price was right. And it looked a bit run down but ..that wasn't too bad. He could use a distracted and fix a place up. Though eyeing Chii and Fuu he wondered just how successful he was going to be. Still...he emailed the person renting it, expressing his interest and then went to bed.

He was surprised that in the morning that he had an email back. Apparently he was already able to rent as soon as possible. well...he guessed now was better than any other time to move. Confirming he would be there within the week he decided that maybe he should go pay Duncan a visit. Let him know that he was moving...perhaps ask him to be his roommate.

His face flushed his heart racing a little, he included a question in his email about having a room mate before pressing send and then got up. Yes....even if he was breaking his own promise to leave Duncan be, he was sure he would want to know he was moving right?

Choosing a pair of pants and a more comfortable shirt he took a deep unsteady breath and went out to get boxes. He would visit Duncan tomorrow...mentally prepare for it. He was far too much of a coward to go today.


It was....early morning when he awoke. His room was already a mess being packed into boxes. He hadn't thought he would need many of them...but he had more stuff than he realized. Pheh...he would need to go get more. But today he was going to go see Duncan. He had steeled himself for this. After grabbing a quick bite to eat he told Jayoku he was going to go get more boxes. Which, wasn't a lie..he was..but after he talked with Duncan. He promised himself it would be brief; so nothing got out of hand.

It didn't take him long to get to the facilities, and he strode in without speaking to anyone. They all knew him by now and probably figured where he was going. He was surprised however to find the door wide open. He felt panic rise up in his chest as he finally reached the room and then turned to find it empty. The bed was freshly made and everything tidy. He stared at the empty room a long time trying to figure out what was making him panic. He quickly pivoted and marched back to the front desk where he slammed a hand down and demanded to know where Duncan had gone.

His face...paled when he had been informed that Duncan had left only a few hours ago without a word to any of the staff. His heart was racing, Duncan had left? Did that mean...he was on his way to his house? He shook his head...no..he wasn't that far..it had only taken him half an hour to walk here. It didn't occur to him that Duncan may of wanted to go home first. All he could think off was that sinking sensation in the pit of his stomach. He nearly ran home but stopped himself and forced him to walk.

~Moving painfully onward part 2~

When he got home he heard the shower running.
“MOM!” He shouted, as he threw his shoes off and Chii and Fuu helped take off his coat and discard it in a hurried manner.
“MOOOOOM!!” he shouted out again, he felt like a yowling child rather than a grown up, he stomped up the stairs and threw open the bathroom door.
“MOMM!!!!!”

“ADRIEL!!???” Came her responsive shriek as she quickly grabbed a towel and wrapped it around her body, getting it soaked since she had failed to turn the shower off.
“ca..an't this wait???” She squeaked trying to cover herself up.

“No! I need to know was Duncan over?” He asked desperate to know weither Duncan had indeed dropped by, he felt sicker by the moment dreading the answer.

The red head hesitated, as if weighing something in her mind before sighing.
“Yes...he was here. You just missed him by ten minutes.”....

Adriel felt like his legs were going to give out from under him, he clutched the counter in a desperate attempt to stand up.

“w..what...?”

“Yes...he..seemed ...ticked off..”

This surprised him his gaze jerked up to look at his mother who flinched.

“Why?”

“I..told him you were moving...he just...got irritated and left...”

Adriel groaned. No no no no no......he was suppose to tell him...so he could ask him to move in...not this way... not like this. Moving to run a hand over his face he lurched out of the bathroom leaving the dripping red head there.

He fumbled with the phone and frantically dailed his number. He cradled the phone close to his face as if afraid to let go. This could be his only change to fix things. He held hie breath and the line on the other end rang and rang.

"Yo!" Came a cheerful voice on the other end of the line... which meant it was most definitely not Duncan, Duncan didn't do cheerful... not once in his life....

Adriel felt his heart sink, there was silence but he struggled to answer.
"H..hello June." he whispered wanting desperately for it to have been Duncan who answered. But even if it had been would he of been able to respond differently? A part of him didn't think so.
"I..is Duncan there?" He managed to continue after another pause. It felt like he had lumps in his throat. It hurt to talk.

"Yeah, its June." He said then gave a little negative sound, "Ah, no. He went out a while ago. He got out of the Labs today, came home only to get a shower and change of clothing and was gone again." He didn't like having to report on the bad news from the sounds of it from the tone in his voice.

"Oh..." Adriel seemed at a loss of what to do or say..it felt like he was fighting a losing battle that was just going to end up with him more broken than good.
"..D...o..you know when he is going to be..b..back?" He inquired a bit hopeful. He supposed if he lingered on the phone long enough that he could hope for Duncan to arrive any minute.

"Ahh... no, sorry. He said he needed to stretch his legs after being kept in a single room so long." June said, sounding apologetic, "I can try to catch him when he gets home and get him to call you."

Adriel swallowed and nodded his head ...another pause before he realized June couldn't see that.
"..Y..yes..i..if you could...i..if you c..could do me..o..one favor?" He breathed his hands shaking with the effort to not drop the phone.
"I...if...he wont call me...te..tell him..I'm s..sorry...and that...its..all..a..m..misunder..s.s.standing...and.." he paused tring to not quiver as he said the final words.
"Th...that I lo..love him...p..please ?" he murmured again the stupid urge to cry starting to overwhelm him again.

June blinked a couple of times as he was given the message, "Ahh... yeah, I will do that." He said, finding it odd to deliver such a message. Maybe he would write it down on a piece of paper and leave it for Duncan to find pinned to his door, "I will make sure he gets what you said."

Adriel nodded his head again a bit numbly, he then quickly stood up vertigo almost having him if it weren't go Chii and Fuu's quick grabs for support he could of fallen. Instead he staggered to his computer desk and rustled through the papers there.
"I..I am m..moving..s..soon...b..byt the ..end of..th..the week....I...ca..can I giv...ve you m..my n..ew address? and...give it t..to him as well?" he inquired feeling a bit quilty for making June play messanger for him.

"Sure, let me get some paper." He said, getting to his feet and went to find something, scribbling down the message for Duncan so far, "Alright, ready."

Taking a deep breath he gave out his new address and explained he wuoldn't have a phone yet so there was no phone number available yet.
"I...h..hope to h..hear fr..rom him soon..." He murmured refraining from sighing. "T..thanks June. I...appreciate it." He mumbeled his head hanging low , knowing that he was going to get very little sleep that night if Duncan didn't call.
"Yeah... its not a problem. I will make sure the note gets to him as soon as he gets home. Have a good night Adriel."

Adriel barely managed the goodbye back before he hung up the phone and let it clatter onto his desk. Laying his face into the palms of his hands he wondered just how well he managed to ******** up his life. His heart hurt, but his body felt cold and numb. He knew he needed to continue packing, but he didn't have the drive for it.

Instead he went and flopped onto his bed face down blocking the world out by letting the pillow smother him...at least until his lungs burned for air...and he was forced to roll over. He winced at the bright light...it was too early to sleep.. but he wanted to just block out the entire day. Forcing himself to get back up he sighed and much like a zombie went about slowly packing up the remainder of his things.

~What is love, Baby don't hurt me, Don't hurt me, no more, Baby don't....hurt me. Don't hurt me, no more. What is love? Yeah....
Oh I don't know, why you're not fair, I give you my love, but you don't care. So what is right? and what is wrong? gimme a sign....~

Adriel flipped the radio station off in irritation it felt like everyone was taunting him and his current situtaion. It was maddening. He closed his eyes trying to take deep breaths and calm himself; before reaching for some stuff he had laying on the bed.

Another shirt previously folded neatly was roughly shoved into a box, before another joined it. Chii and Fuu were trying to help;but for once seemed wary of Adriel and his mood. Instead they mainly just helped when Adriel would miss the box or bag by catching whatever the item was and then placing it in the holding container.

He wasn't sure what was worse....that irriating song or the silence. When he judeged that enough time had past he relunctantly flicked the radio back on.

~But I don't care what they say, I am in love with you. They try to pull me away, but they don't know the truth...~ Click.

Adriel felt his hackles rise as another reminder of his situation mocked him from the station. He quickly flicked the radio on and turned the dial, wrenching it so that it wason any other station than the one he had been looking to.

Loud music blared from the speakers, heavy bass...yeah...this was better. At least he could drown out his misery this way. Whatever the last song that was playing faded and a new one began. At first he paid little attention to the lyrics it was an unfmailar song to him so he didn't really care.

~It's in your eyes, what's on your mind. I see the truth that you've buried inside....... ~

He shifted a bit uncomfertable, the words starting to sink in an gain a meaning. He didn't like where this song was going...his mind was already making connections he didn't want to realize.

~I just have to know, while I still have time.Do I have to run, or hide away from you?......~

Pausing he stared at the shirt in his hand a long time, though really he wasn't looking at it more past it in a blank expression. Chii and Fuu paused in their assistance to peer at Adriel in a worried manner.

Chii reached up to stroke his shoulder which he shrugged off the contact his body trembeled a bit clutching at the shirt in an unconcious manner before it finally was ao wrinkeled that it looked like it needed to be washed again. Or at least ironed.

~I think you can do much better than me, After all the lies that I made you believe, Guilt kicks in and I start to see....~

But had hadn't lied, he ....the song was making him irrational. Even as it moved from the previous into this new one he couldn't help but find connections with each lyric he came across. He felt a bit numb...he was very tired of thinking anymore.

The more he thought on it...the more he realized how he had been acting, love sick. It was an apt term for it, like a clinical illness that had no cure. He mulled on it a bit, he couldn't help how he felt....how Duncan made his heart race when their eyes met. Raising a hand to gingerly touch the wound on his neck it was healing..but still sore. Yet he didn't regret letting Duncan do it. It had...in honesty thrilled him a bit. Painful yes...but he felt...more attatched to him than before.

Dropping his hand quickly he went to shove another shirt into a box. Grinding his teeth until he realized his jaw was sore and managed to stop himself. What should he do? Stay at home? Pine for a man who couldn't make up his mind?

He loved Duncan...there was no doubt on that but ...could he really keep on living his life the way it was? He was miserable, that much he knew and he either needed to make an effort on his part and find out once and for all how Duncan felt. Or wait. He doubted he could keep waiting like this; after the last blow up with the misunderstanding about his moving he wasn't sure if Duncan would ever call.. despite the panicked message he had left with his dad.

Maybe...he should go to his house. Force him to a confrontation. That sounded...dreadful. Very hard to do...could he muster the courage to do such a thing? Ask ....no demand to know what Duncan was thinking? He could see that going over poorly....

He chewed on his lower lip before finally nodding his head. Yes...he would wait a bit longer...if nothing...THEN he would go to him. He chuckeled at how desperate he sounded in his own head. And maybe he was getting to that point...just...plain desperate for Duncan's affection. Who knew? He certianly didn't want to probe his own mind to find the answer....and so he continued ..like a zombie to pack.

Making up part 2  

[jayoku]

Knocked up March 21'st 2009 O_o

Stomach Pains

Placing a hand over his mouth he waited for the dizziness and nausea to pass, the poor man had been feeling ill for most of the morning, and of course it had to be the morning they were moving into their new apartment. By 'they' he could only be on cloud nine, Duncan and himself had been intimate with each other the first time four days ago, and since then he felt a weight finally lift off his shoulders. After a while he finally picked up another box allowing Chii and Fuu to take most of the weight as he went to move it towards the kitchen area. He had labeled all his boxes to help with the unpacking, though this place was a bit run down it would do for what they needed it for. A place to live together. He gave another squee inwardly as he placed the box down and turned around wondering what was taking Duncan so long. his stomach clenched again painfully another wave of nausea hitting him. moving he went to sit on a box to let himself stop being dizzy. He wondered if he ate something bad.... he mused on it whilst he bent his head down trying to let the feeling pass.

It had taken a bit of time to get his boxes packed as it meant going through all his stuff and keeping what he wanted, throwing out what he didn't want, and each time he got a box filled the little pink haired brat that was his younger brother would knock it over. His weak attempts to keep Duncan from leaving... not that it was helping. He was moving out no matter what. Things were going well enough and if it meant having to leave poor June with a small, crybaby it was something he had to do... the only down side was the glitter stuck to the pants he was wearing. Hand print marks where his brother had clung to him until their father peeled him off to let Duncan leave with some boxes. He had them all stacked up and he started toward the place he was going to be sharing with Adriel. Upon arriving at the door he had to lift a foot to tap it against the door hoping Adriel was inside as the stack of boxes had his arms full.

Adriel jerked his head up at the sound and moved quickly to the door, the wave of lightheadedness flooded through him as he got up too fast, but he stumbled his way to the door and opened it. He smiled past his feeling of ick and quickly allowed Duncan inside.
"Glad your here." He said honestly, he was very happy to be moving in and be living with Duncan. He offered to take a couple of the boxes even though Duncan looked like he had it taken care of."Put them anywhere, I will show you around." He said with a giggle.

Duncan gave a happy sound when Adriel took the box, deciding that trying to take everything he could in one trip wasn't the best of ideas... it also showed up few things he had that he hadn't destroyed at various times in his life, "I'm glad too." He murmured, setting the rest of the boxes out of the wa, glad to be free of the weight. It was a bit of a strain on his back, while the wounds were healed up for the most part they still gave him problems now and again.

Wounds that were worth it though... he gave a smile as he followed after the lust spawn, "So I am up for the grand tour." He couldn't wait to see the place he was moving into.

Adriel gave a laugh fighting back the new wave of nausea flooding through him. He put the box down a bit harder than he meant to, before he paused and closed his eyes focusing on letting the feeling pass before turning to smile at Duncan. "The fee is a hello kiss." He said with a smirk waggling a finger at him in a teasing manner. Though there really wasn't much to show as of yet.

Duncan gave a little grin, reaching a hand over to wrap it around Adriel's waist to pull him over, "A kiss, hm? I think I can do that." He murmured, nuzzling against the other's cheek. It was the most amazing thing about Adriel, that he could spark all sorts of emotions in Duncan both good and bad. He could be so calm around him as easily as he could want to try to growl at him and chew on him...

Adriel giggled a bit letting Chii and Fuu wrap around Duncan gently as he knew his back was still sore. He nuzzled against Duncan's chest tilting his head to get his payment, he was grateful to Duncan holding him..right now he felt a bit lightheaded."Good, there are a few rooms so there will be more kisses as payment." He teased again. He perhaps was leaning a bit too heavily on Duncan an indication that he probably wouldn't be standing at this point if it weren't for Duncan holding onto him. But he was trying to ignore it, he liked having Duncan around him anyway.

The wrath spawn gave a little grin showing lots of teeth when the tentacles wrapped around him. It was strange knowing he was in a relationship that was with three beings given Chii and Fuu had personalities of their won... if he had to guess of the two that Fuu liked him best. He blinked a couple times when Adriel leaned into him more heavily... then slid his arms down so that he could lift him up, carrying him to the closest counter to sit him down on it, "Are you alright?" He asked curiously.

Adriel tried not to gag as he felt pressure on his stomach and managed to keep what little was in his stomach down, when placed on the counter it was quite easy to tell he was pale.
"I..Its nothing..just not feeling that great this morning." He murmured as he looked down at the floor to stop the dizziness. "It will pass." He added quickly as he didn't want Duncan to worry.

"Be..besides I have much to show you for our new home." He continued fighting back another wave of nausea that filled him.

Duncan leaned back to get a better look at Adriel, looking him over before he gave a shrug, "I can look around on my own... is there anything you need? Water?" He asked, wanting to help out where he could... there were few that he would give such help and consideration to and Adriel was one such person.

Adriel was going to protest when suddenly that nausea was overwhelming.
"bathroom.." He squeaked as he hopped onto his feet and stumbled his way to the only bathroom. He made it just in time, the sound of him throwing up was not a pleasant sound. Even when he was done and he took a piece of toilet paper to wipe his mouth he felt like his head was going to explode. Ugh ...throwing up was the worst experience ever. One of the few things he would never care to repeat. The sound of the toilet flushing announced he seemed to be done. Getting back up he leaned his arms against the sink. Trying to let the dizziness pass.

Duncan blinked two of his three eyes before he turned to follow after Adriel for a few steps... then froze in his tracks at the sound of him being sick. He winced then took a step back to lean against the nearby wall to give the other his space. He must really be feeling ill to get sick like that... food poisoning perhaps? Not everyone could have the iron stomach of a gluttony spawn he supposed.

Touching his forehead lightly he took a deep breath waited for more nausea and was happy to find it seemed to be content for the meantime. Still a bit shaky and pale he took a glass of water trying to get rid of that foul taste in his mouth. Gargling a bit he finally was finished and came back out smiling apologetically. "Sorry..I think i may of ate something bad yesterday." He explained as he moved back to stand with Duncan. "I will show you the bathroom last.." he joked trying to make light of his sudden illness.

"Maybe... you should lay down?" He suggested, reaching a hand out to trace his fingertips down one of his arm, "We can save the tour for when your stomach isn't turning against you."

Adriel rolled his eyes, looking to Duncan and then leaning his head against his chest. "Only think I want to lay down on is you." He pouted since there wasn't much else to lay on. He had a futon in what was the bedroom until they were abel to set up the king size bed his mother gave him.

Duncan gave a smile, "You could use me for a pillow but... I can't see me as being to comfortable." He said, tapping a finger against one of his bone structures before nuzzling against Adriel's hair, "Worth a try though."

He wrapped an arm around him, "How about you lead the way to where we will be sleeping and we can talk more there once your comfortable?"

Adriel smiled and nodded his head. Intertwining his fingers with Duncan's much like a school girl may with her crush before he lead the way to the bedroom. It...was small. Not the smallest room but the king size bed was going to take up quite a bit of space.

"Tadaa!" He said with mock drama in his voice to show the bedroom. "My mom gave me a king size bed.." he pointed to where all the pieces were sitting against the wall. The mattress for it was on the floor in the middle of the room. "so we will have plenty of space." He giggled, "for sleep and other activities." He added suggestively, though he didn't really sound sexy at the moment more tired than anything.

Duncan couldn't help but give a laugh, "Sick and still a perv." He said in a teasing manner before he walked over to sit down on the mattress then laid back on it, "Yeah... its a nice size bed." He said as he patted the bed beside him. It was comfortable enough and big enough for them to enjoy together. He had gotten a great gift from his mother hadn't he?

Adriel didn't have to be asked twice as he went to go snuggle against Duncan. "can't help it...you turn me on even if I am sick." He mumbeled borrowing his face into Duncan's shoulder. He wished he wasn't sick today of all days. "Hmm...Duncan...I was wondering.." he started thinking back to that card Duncan said he was waiting to hear back from. "D..did you get that job?" He inquired a little
nervously.

Duncan wrapped an arm around him lazily then looked over at Adriel and gave him a bit of a nod, "I was hired on temporarily. The one in charge decided to give me a chance but wanted to see how I worked out before I got more then that chance." He explained, having met with the boss of the place not long ago, finding her to be... unexpected.

Adriel still couldn't wrap his head around the concept of Duncan working as a bouncer at a strip club. It made him nervous...and jealous for no reason. "T..Temporarily huh? What..do you have to do there again?" He inquired trying to keep his voice level and calm but hoped any nervousness was passed off as being ill just a few moments ago.

"Show I can be... a people person..." He said in a grumpy manner, "I was told the job isn't just about beating people up... though that is the part that I am looking forward to." He said admittedly, "I figured it would be a good way to... let of steam." Adriel know about Duncan's temperament well enough to know what Duncan was talking about. He turned his head to press a kiss to where the mark was that he'd left on Adriel.

He shivered at the touch wanting Duncan all over again he went to press his mouth to Duncan but felt that wave of nausea him him again. He instead leaned his head against Duncan in a defeated manner. "I..." He started as he forced the bile in his throat back down.

"I know you can do it." He croaked out Chii and Fuu seemed to be getting mixed messages, one was that Adriel wanted fun time again and another that he just was just too ill to really enjoy himself.

"I guess we will see... my first night is tomorrow night. Which means I can stay here with you all of today and tonight so that I can take care of you." He said then let two of his eyes close. This was nice and surprisingly relaxing... he moved one hand to stroke the tentacle closest to him in a soothing sort of way knowing they probably wanted to do something else other then lay around but he was glad to see they were behaving since Adriel wasn't feeling well.

Adriel repressed a sigh as he knew he had to get over the fact Duncan was working at a strip club. At least he wasn't sripping...but he just found himself more annoyed at the fact there would be women there scantily clad if wearing clothes at all.
"well..I would like that ..a lot." He murmured instead before his eyes flew open and he pushed himself away from Duncan in a hurried manner moving to

dash for the bathroom once again. What else could he upchuck at this rate? Still even dry heaving he felt like this was hell. The bile in his mouth made him gag more, and he had to hurriedly rinse his mouth after he was finished.
"D..dun..Duncan.." he mewled pathetically from the bathroom floor.

Duncan pushed to his feet and walked toward the bathroom with slightly wide eyes, "Poor Adriel... what in the world did you eat?" He asked when he reached where Adriel had left himself. He tilted his head to the side before he kneeling down in front of him, "Whatever it was... you shouldn't eat it again."

Adriel nodded his head again, Chii and Fuu were basically the only things keeping him from falling over. "..y..yeah..definitely.." He mumbled nodding his head. "C..could you..p..please go find me..some gravol?" He pleaded looking at if he was going to be sick again he was..much too pale for his own good.

"Gravol?" He asked in a curious manner, not sure what that was exactly but he was more then willing to go and fetch some for Adriel if it would make him feel better... poor thing... he looked awful.

He nodded his head, "S..orry I ..dont know what box its in...you ..mind going to the drugstore?" He inquired quietly.

Duncan pushed to his feet and gave a nod, "Will you be alright here on your own? Until I get back?" He asked in a worried manner. He wasn't sure what he thought about leaving him on the floor even if it meant fetching him something he needed.

Adriel gave him a half smile and waved him away. "I will..be right where you left me I am sure." He laughed a bit shakily.

Duncan gave him a last, long look before turning and headed off as quickly as his feet would carry him. He wanted to get this done so that he could come back to take care of Adriel... he didn't want to leave him on the floor in the bathroom for all that long.  

[jayoku]

Chubby Adriel?!

Adriel was peering at a full length mirror that was in their bedroom, he was so absorbed with his image he seemed to forget that he indeed lived with his lover. Currently he was standing sideways a frown on his face as he noticed that his stomach seemed to be getting larger. He felt...hungry, and that was annoying. At least he had stopped being so sick all the time but still. he placed his hands on his hips, the tummy pudge was noticeable, more so than a week before. His nice flat stomach was gone and in its place a small 'beer belly' was starting to form. His jogging pants were pulled down under his stomach...that only seemed to make itlook bigger and he wore no shirt. Chii and Fuu seemed bored and agitated by Adriel's close examination of his body.

Duncan was watching from the doorway of the room, starring at him with three eyes filled with confusion as the lust spawn starred at himself in the mirror. He tilted his head to the side, eyes narrowing ever so slightly as he tried to figure out what it the world Adriel was up too, "You... alright?" Duncan finally asked.

Adriel probably jumped a mile high his hands came up to cover his chest like a woman may if he had boobs... "Don't do that!" He said as he swallowed his heart back down his throat. He went to rub his temple his other arm coming to lay at his side. "When did you get home?" He asked wondering just how long he had been staring at himself in a mirror.

Duncan gave a bit of a smile as he pushed away from the door frame and walked toward Adriel, wrapping his arms around him from behind and nuzzled against the back of his neck. He was so glad to be home and seemed rather... calm and content which was just not a mood tha tone saw him in very often.

Adriel stiffened a bit as Duncan wrapped himself around him. He moved Duncan's hands so they weren't near his stomach...and he really wished he could put a shirt on.
"H..how was work?" He asked trying to take his mind off of his weight gain. He has so hoped swimming would help with that..

He gave a sort of purring sound a she laid his head on his lover's shoulder, smiling, "It was a pretty good night actually." He said before he blinked a couple times looking at their reflection in the mirror. Two of his eyes were looking Adriel over, looking quite interested while the yellow one was just studying him.

Adriel shifted a bit uncomfortable as Duncan was looking them over in the mirror. He reached a hand up trying to distract him. He stroked Duncan's cheek as Chii and Fuu stroked his arms.
"Good. I am glad it is going well for you." He said as he hoped that perhaps he could draw Duncan over to the bed....as of late no only was he hungry all the time...horny as well.

He allowed himself to be led along though his yellow eye was looking somewhat suspicious though the rest of him didn't seem to notice anything being strange about the way he was acting. He was being to friendly for Duncan to try to think of anything but his affections. The wrath spawn sat down on the bed before wrapping his arms around him, pulling him close.

Adriel was relieved as they moved away from the mirror he smiled up at Duncan glad the wrath child seemed to be ain a good mood. It was rare these days for them to be on the same wavelength. Not that Adriel was in the best of moods...he was only trying to distract and possible get laid. He gave a kiss on his cheek. His fingers moving to trail up Duncan's chest. "So are you hired for real now the trial period is over?" He asked Chii and Fuu snuck under Duncan's shirt to stroke against his skin. He loved being close to Duncan...though their first was still quite possible the msot passionate they had been.

Duncan gave a nod, "They seem to think I am good at my job." He murmured, they knew that they had a dangerous sort of person on their hands but they had him work a job he was good at, used him as he should be used. He was a weapon to protect those inside of the place from harm.

He gave a little purr as Adriel and his tentacles stroked over him and made him feel even more relaxed so he flopped back and gazed up at Adriel, grinning. "A good thing, huh? I found a job I am good at." He told him.

Adriel though he didn't approve of Duncan's job only nodded his head. "Yes now I just need to find a job. I ran into a woman the other day..her daughter is a spawn from the facility. I offered to babysit her some time." He said with a tilt of his head informing the wrath spawn of his own goings ons. Now looking down at Duncan he smiled his own worries and fears seeming to melt away as he leaned down to kiss him. Fuu went to investigate the inside of Duncan's pants whilst Chii continued to stroke the boys sides. Though as Ad bent down his stomach pressed against Duncan. Perhaps a new sensation since the boy was normally thin enough that this would be an odd occurrence.

"If you can deal with someone like me I am sure you will do fine with a child." He said with a smile, wrapping an arm around Adriel when eh came close so he could pull them flush together. He was leaning up to kiss Adriel as he did so before giving pause, shifting as he felt Adriel's belly pressing against him. That was new he realized not remembering him being so soft but it wasn't so bad, just different.

Adriel seemed too...lost in the moment to actually worry about his belly. But with the way his pants were it seemed to exaggerate how large it actually was. "Yes well..she is a lust spawn too...so we shall see." He said with soft giggle. "She invited me to her dance recital...you included." He said between kisses. He was thinking at the moment how unfair it was taht Duncan was wearing a shirt whilst he was topless.

Duncan's yellow eye narrowed, "And she is how old?" he found himself askng. He really didn't want to feel such jealousy but it snuck up on him at the idea of lust spawn girls coming around Adriel after what happened between him and Adhara...

Adriel nibbled on Duncan's lower lip after he asked. "She is maybe 6 years old?" He guessed, he wasn't so sure why Duncun should be jealous...but then again after Adhara...he could understand. He slipped a hand under Duncan's shirt fingers seeking nipples as he was getting more frisky.

"Dont' worry I wouldn't of volunteered to look after her if I didn't think I would be able to. I am feeling much better." He said with a chuckle. The lust spawn was indeed living up to his DNA's genes. Despite his earlier worries he felt at ease with Duncan.

Duncan relaxed again when he heard it was just a child, nobody that he needed to worry about he thought as he gave a little sound like a mix between a growl and a purr, a sound that showed he liked what Adriel was doing and he slid his hands down along his lover's back and up his sides, doing his best to keep from digging his claws in, "Mmm, you feel nice and soft." He murmured, finding himself liking the roundness that Adriel seemed to be developing.

Adriel's nimble fingers had found his nipples and had begun playing with them when he heard Duncan's words. "..What?" He said after a moment sounding a bit breathless as the wrath stroked his sides. He seemed a bit taken aback at the comment. Soft?

He gave a bit of a smile, quite content. He'd gotten to beat up two guys tonight so his anger had been completely sated, "Hrm?" He blinked a couple times, "What?" He asked, not realizing he'd commented out loud. Instead he moved his hands over him again, the tips of his claws moving over Adriel's skin lightly.

He shivered under his touch, and yet he couldn't let go of what Duncan has said.
"...you..said soft." He said between a slight moan that escaped his lips. He pinched Duncan's n****e as if he himself wanted Duncan to press his claws into his skin. A faint blush was forming on his face.

Duncan gave a nod of his head as he dug his fingers into Adriel's side, not in a painful manner just to tighten his grasp on him, "Mmm, yes. It feels nice to be able to hold you like this." He explained before nuzzling against his throat and gave it a n**.

Adriel was still confused, he wasn't sure what Duncan had meant. Soft? Soft meaning what? He gave a bit of a squeak as his claws dug into his skin, arching his neck back as Duncan nibbled there. Wait..did he...mean love handles??? He so desperately didn't want to ruin the mood, he chewed on the inside of his cheek. ...He...did gain quite a bit of weight...love handles...oh god.

Duncan smiled a bit as he loved on Adriel's neck leaving a love mark behind on his skin, a bad habit that he knew he should break himself of but was unable to do so. He loved seeing those marks, made it feel more as though Adriel was his which was something important in his somewhat animalistic way of thinking.

He swallowed nervously trying to get back in the mood, and though Chii and Fuu were definitely still in the mood as they continued to stroke and play with him. Adriel's mind...seemed distracted he ...was still thinking over the weight he gained and was horrified that he had love handles. Even more so that Duncan didn't seem to mind. He guessed he should be thankful Duncan seemed to actually like his weight gain, but all he could do was be mortified.

A sound like a growl came from Duncan before he gave Adriel's shoulder a soft bite when he realized he wasn't paying as much attention as Chii and Fuu were, something that caused him to get a bit grouchy, "Adriel?" He murmured against the lust spawn's skin.

Adirel jumped at the growling bite that wasn't as playful as before. He looked down at Duncan his face looking a bit ashamed. "Ah...sorry." He said quietly after a moment he continued to try and focus on Duncan and help him distress after work...but...it was evident something was bothering him.

Duncan gave another sound, closer to a grumble before he released the lust spawn and laid back on the bed starring up at him, slightly confused. It was... odd to see Adriel not wanting to do such things, something must really be wrong, "Are you feeling sick again?" He asked, moving a hand to pet it over one of Adriel's tentacles.

Chii and Fuu looked annoyed at Adriel's lack of ..performance. Adriel stared down at Duncan a moment surprised as he was released. He felt bad now...he wished he had tried harder. "Ah...." He looked down at Duncan's perfectly shaped abbs and reached a hand to draw little figure eights on them. "No...not...sick...just...frustrated...with myself.." he added the last part quickly.

Two of Duncan's eyes sank half closed as Adriel's traced shapes over his belly, the muscles tightening a little under the feeling, "Hmm? Frustrated with what?" He asked, sounding a bit confused. He knew he was missing something but what that thing was... he didn't know off hand.

Adriel gave a sigh, sometimes Duncan was more observant that his brain let realize. He continued to trace little paths with his finger. "....I've gained weight the last couple of weeks...y..ou even commented I was 'soft' now..." He said giving the man a poke in the belly button.

Duncan lowered his gaze down to looking at Adriel's belly before giving a bit of a shrug of his shoulders, "So?" He murmured, moving his hand over Adriel's slightly rounded belly. He must be missing something... maybe Adriel didn't like the soft feeling like he did?

"You are soft." He said, not sounding at all as though it bothered him.

Adriel didn't look to be enjoying the attention he suddenly drew to his stomach. Though his face did blush at the contact. "...That...doesn't bother you then?" He asked his face slightly pink. sure he himself couldn't stand it...but if Duncan didn't either he thought he would die. He guessed it was a good thing Duncan didn't mind it at all.

He gave a shrug of his shoulders, "Not really,.. should it?" He asked, "You like me despite how I look... I think if I said I didn't like this little change you would have reason to murder me." He did his best to keep from grinning not wanting for Chii and Fuu to strangle him on Adriel's behalf.

Adriel pouted he looked annoyed and yet relieved. One part of himself still hated how he looked the other was just relieved Duncan seemed to not care."I tried to exercise when I first noticed my weight gain..but it hasn't helped." He said with a sigh as he wiggled on top of Duncan. Chii and Fuu...too annoyed their fun time was being cut short due to Adriel's freaking out moment went to poke his belly in irritation but stopped...they then seemed to look agitated as well.

He wrapped an arm around Adriel to pull him down to lay on him, "Mmm." He hugged the lust spawn to him, nuzzling against his hair. He wasn't sure what he should say to help... couldn't think of anything that sounded right so he merely snuggled and loved on him since it seemed like it might assure him.

Adriel was brought down to snuggling, it made him feel better, he wrapped his arms around Duncan before he laid there a moment. Annoyed with himself further for ruining the mood he lifted himself a bit and wriggled himself under Duncan's shirt. A tight fit but he didn't seem to care as he kisses his chest and nipped the skin lightly.

The wrath spawn gave a low, delighted sound as Adriel wiggled under his shirt. He seemed to be more himself now which helped Duncan returned his more contented state. His hands returned to stroking over Adriel, along his sides, his back, and the tentacles finding all of him felt good under his hands.

Adriel did his best to push his weight gain to the back of his head. He just wanted to enjoy his time with Duncan now. That was all that mattered.

Meeting Trinket:

Trinket was bored, her mother was waiting for a perscription up at the counter and it looked like it was going to be a while so she had told Trinket that she could wander around a little bit so long as she controlled her tentacles and didn't knock anything off of the shelves. Not that the tentacles were all that likley to move that far from her body at that moment, they eely since she had grown, always petting at her, smoothing out her hair or skirt or touching her in some way. She wasn't really paying attention to where she was wandering, more concerned with batting the tentacles away from the hem of her skirt, and found herself staring up at a display of pain killers.She turned to wander in another direction, her skirt swirling as she did knocking a small bottle of extra strength pain killers from a lower shelf. Sighing she followed the rolling bottle so she could pick it up and replace it on its shelf.

A hand reached down to pick up the rolling bottle that was headed towards his foot. Adriel gave a chuckle, what he was looking for seemed to have come to him. He looked up as he heard the swish of a dress his gaze locking onto a small girl who had purple skin and two rather familiar looking tentacles. Chii and Fuu were thrilled. They reached out instantly wanting hugs and touching. They wanted nothing more than to twist around the smaller limbs in greeting but Adriel straightened himself looking down at the little girl and after a stern look at both Chii and Fuu they withdrew although they looked crushed to not be allowed to say hello to the new little spawn.

"Hello there." He said slowly, he felt...strange he...had been around older folk so long he ..had nearly forgotten the facility was still creating more of their kind.

Trinket smiled up at the older spawn "Hello, I'm sorry for hitting you in the foot with a bottle, oh you have tentacles too! Are you from the facility as well?" She was curious, she had never met any other spawn with tentacles before. The only other time she had seen them before had been when she met J'her, would this boy be like J'her had been? Tiima and Sia moved from Trinket's side reaching out towards the other set of tentacles, they wanted to touch the other tentacles, curious if they would be as nice as J'her's tentacles had been. Trinket batted at the offending limbs, "Behave!"

Adriel gave her a smile as she told her own limbs to behave it reminded him of when he was young.
"Yes...I am. My name is Adriel." He started then he pointed to his left limb, "This is Fuu and this is Chii." He said finishing off by pointing at his right tentacoo. Both offered the girl a wave.
"And I best ask you before they can't stand it any longer...is it alright if they give you a hug?" He inquired as he knew the limbs would only fidget until the girl was gone.

"My name is Trinket." She smiled brightly at the boys question "of course its okay!" Trinket liked hugs, she always had, and she never turned down an offer for one. "These pests are Tiima and Sia," she gestured to her left and right tentacles respectivley "they don't like to listen very well." She stepped towards the boy, Tiima and Sia straining towards the other tentacles, so that she could get the afformentioned hug, "Do Fuu and Chii listen better, or is it just a tentacle thing, I couldn't tell if J'her's tentacles listened to her when I met her, I wasn't there for long enough.

Adriel laughed as he knelt so that Chii and Fuu cuold have better access at the girl. It seemed...perverted in some what..and yet not. They both dashed out eagerly wrapping around Tiima and Sia stroking each one in a much loving manner. Adriel feeling a bit out of place opened is arms to give the girl a hug to.
"I think its an age thing...mine only bothered listening to me lately.." He said with a small laugh.

Tiima and Sia stroked at Chii and Fuu as well twisting around the other tentacles. Trinket grinned and stepped closer to hug the boy she had just met. "I hope they start listening sooner, they like to bother me all the time. I'm taking ballet now becuase mother said that it would teach me limb control and that maybe it would help me keep Tiima and Sia out of trouble."

Or get into more trouble. He thought this to himself as he recalled trying gymnastics as well tennis to try and help keep the limbs preoccupied...instead he just made a fool of himself.
"Oh? Ballet? DO you like to dance?" He inquired as he gave the girl a hug. There was nothing perverted about the hug, the man himself seemed to be just like an older brother or old friend. Thoguh Chii and Fuu
slipped around the othe two appendages some could call it sexual. He withdrew from the hug and went to stand back up finding he had to tug at the pair of tentacles who..after a moment relunctantly released Tiima and Sia. But they still stayed within easy tentacle reach.

She nodded "It's fun, but it's hard too, my teacher said that at the end of the year we would be having a recital to show off what we have learned so far. Maybe you could come see!" Trinket thought nothing of inviting a boy she had just met, the teacher had said that they could invite their friends and family and the boy was nice, and he had hugged her which was something friends did. Sia slipped back to Trinket's side curling and twisting to play with the ribbon of her dress. Tiima on the other hand was less eager to return to Trinket's side, instead reaching out to touch at Adriel's tentacles.

Adriel gave a chuckle, already he was invited to watcha tennis match and now a ballet recitel. He gave a small sigh, thinking on how...nice it would be to have a family like this. His own mother had been too busy to really allow him to attempt sports for long periods of time. He was just too awkward anyway.
"Well..thank you. That would be nice to see." he said though he wondered if he would see the girl before then or how her mother or father would feel about a grown man their daughter just met coming to see her dance. Chii and Fuu ....hesistated only a second and then they launched themselves at Tiima. Eager to give it attention Fuu curled around it whilst Chii stroked it in a loving manner.

"If you give me your adress or phone number I can make sure my mother sends you an invitation, she said I could invite whoever I wanted so long as I told her who to send the invitations to! Have you ever been to a recital? We have to audition to get a good part in it. Mother said that it would go fine and that auditions were the easy part!" The little girl was excited about the recital and given the chance to talk about it she could go on and on about her classes. Tiima happily twisted around the other tentacles eager to get as much attention as possible.

Adriel nodded his head at all the right times and shook his head as well.
"No I have never gone, no one has ever invited me." He explained as he chuckeled a bit. Perhaps if he was to go it would be best if ..he actually met the parent breifly.
"sounds like you are really excited about it though." He continued with a nod of his head. Chii continued to fondle Tiima though Fuu was getting distracted by Sai and actually went to poke it.

"Yes I am very excited, all the older girls came into class and told us about their recital last year and how much fun it was. They were all so tall and pretty, someday I'mma look like them! Only I have tentacles. Did you want to come give my mother your adress so we could send you the invitation?" Sia poked back at Fuu twisting to grab ahold of the other tentacle while Tiima simply continued playing with Chii happy to get to touch the other tentacle as much as it wanted.


Adriel shoo'd Fuu away from Sia and then withdrew Chii slowly.
"Yes if that will be alright with them I don't see why not." he explained as he had now tow pouting tentacles in his hands.  

[jayoku]

Meeting Trinket prt 2

Sia and Tiima swatted at Adriel, angry that he had taken the others away. Trinket sighed "sorry about them." And lead the older boy towards where she remembered her mother last standing.

Raven had just finished paying for the perscription and was turning to go find her daughter when she saw the girl heading towards her leading a tentacled boy towards her as well. She smiled lightly, it seemed

Adriel felt a bit awkward being brought before the woman, he still did feel like a pervert trailing after a small child. But the mothers smile was sincere and thus he smiled in response. He had nothing to hide after all.
"Hello there. Yes she did indeed invite me to her recital. Though by the sounds of it she invites many people to her recitals." He chuckled feeling a bit weird. He..was an adult...and speaking with another adult. Usually he was so focused on the ones similar to him he paid little attention to the ones around them.

"No, you are actually the first to get an invitation so far, though I expect that the list will be growing very quickly as she only found out she could invite people this afternoon. If you want to come to the recital I can send you an invitation if you leave me your adress." She slipped a hand into her purse pulling out a black leather notebook as well as her business card, slipping the business card, slipping the business card towards the young man, it wasn't fair after all to expect the boy to leave his address with a complete stranger without at least giving him some return contact information. "And of course you can bring your significant other if you have one."

Adriel had been abit surprised by how...accepting the woman was. He relaxed more though we a bit surprised to have her handing him a business card.
"Ah well thank you. I ...will ask...if theywill be interested." He somehow doubted Duncan would care to go to a recital for a girl he never met.
"uh..." he looked around and rifeled through his pocket finding his grocery list he flipped it over and took a pencil from his other pocket and jotted down his own contact information as well his name and Duncan's. In case duncan answered the phone of course. He then handed it to her.

Ryvan accepted the note and slipped it into the notebook to be transfered into her adress book later. "I hope you can make it, Trinket seems to like you quite a bit.

Trinket smiled up at the two adults, Tiima reaching around to poke at Chii, not liking the lack of attention.

Chii immediately showed Tiima attention like a doting mother may. Fuu seemed more interested in Ryvan at the moment. Adriel was making sure Fuu wasn'tgoing to do anything foolish..
"Yes well I hope I can make it as well." He chimed as he was rather curious how a little girl could get so attatched to him.
"I...know you just met...me..but if you ever need a baby sitter." He offered for some reason he wanted to get closer to the girl. Maybe because he felt a kinship with her being a lust based spawn and all.

Ryvan looked thoughtful "Actually I may take you up on that, if you are serious." She knew that Trinket was a bit tired of following her mother around to her different shoots, and really it wasn't always practical to bring a small child along with you to some of the sessions she was booked for. Trinket's eyes sparkled at the mention of Adriel possibly babysitting her, he seemed really nice and his tentacles were nice to Tiima and Sia! Tiima wiggled happily at the actions of the other tentacle while Sia seemed content to remain at Trinket's side playing with the lace edging of her dress.

Adriel nodded, "Yes very serious. I don't have a job at the moment so I have all the time in the world if you want me to baby sit. " he continued feeling very happy with this idea. He could earn a bit of money while doing it to he guessed though he dared not ask for it. "If you don't mind my...'other' tends to work in the evenings so it would be just me and her." He continued after a moment.

"Well it would mostly be in the daytime, with some exceptions. At my house of course." She smiled at the young man, "we were just going to run home for a moment and get some food into Trinket before her lessons, would you like to come with us and we can figure out the details there?" She didn't necessarily want to discuss certain aspects of the arrangement in front of Trinket as it might be somewhat akward for the little girl to hear them negotiating payment for him to watch her.

Trinket had nearly forgotten about her lessons in her excitement of meeting a new friend, she had her english classes today and she was looking forward to finding out what book the teacher was going to have them read since the class had finished their last one a few days ago.

Adriel looked at his watch judging the time it was and how long it would take he frowned.
"I should be getting back, I have some things at home that need to be taken care of. But do you mind if I call you after dinner tonight? Say around 7?" he asked as he didn't want to assume she would be okay with him just darting off. But he was getting tired, as he had been as of late, and didn't want to appear to be sick. He was starving as well.


"Seven should be fine." Ryvan looked at her own watch "we should get going now though, I'll talk to you later tonight. Trinket say goodbye and then we can go get you ready for lessons."

Trinket looked up at Adriel "Bye! Thank you for talking to me and letting your tentacles play with mine!" She grinned and turned to follow her mother towards the door, Tiima remaining in contact with Chii
as long as possible before letting go.

Adriel nodded his head smiling and petting her shoulder lightly in goodbye. Chii was not...thrilled that they had to part company with Tiima, but it gave an affectionate squeeze before finally letting go.
"Yes I will make sure to call by seven." He chimed feeling good for once with how this day had gone.

Trinket looked over her shoulder and waved as her and her mother left the store, she really hoped that she would get to see her new friend soon. But for now she was excited for her lessons, and after english class her mother always took her to get her toes done which was really fun too!

Running into Wynni: prt 1

Wynni wasn't exactly loitering but she wasn't exactly doing any meaningful purchasing either. Currently the pre-teen was wandering from one end of the store and heading toward the next in a distracted sort of manner. She wanted more jewelry and maybe see if she could find some nice makeup as well. More and more the young girl was attaining a personal interest in her appearance. In her hand she she held a permission slip from her mother to hand to a worker at the jewelry counter that handled the ear piercings. The first time was easy, painless, and fun! She wanted another.

The shop was just a random department store that catered to the needs of all genders and it was located in the mall in a very convenient manner.

His arms were empty in fact Chii and Fuu were doing most of the carrying as Adriel was sifting through a pile of new shirts, without thinking he tugged at his pants the hem had been pressing into his stomach for a while now...but he had been ignoring it. The fact he had gained weight annoyed him so much he was trying to pretend it didn't happen. But he needed new clothes anyway..since the dryer inccident had shrunk a bunch of his best shirts. The spawn frowned as he lifted a cream colore shirt into the air to appraise it. No...he was pale enough as it were he didn't need more pale clothes to compliment that. So he fished around for another color..this one was stretchy material..a deep green..he rather liked it.

The young spawn was walking and not paying attention to any of her surroundings least of all anything immediately in front of her as she moved forward. Her pale pink gaze concentrated hither and yon and then finally she found herself pressed against another warm body that was slightly bigger than her own frame and perhaps a bit taller; she couldn't tell for she soon stumbled back and fell on her rump with a soft 'oof!' passing her lips. Her eyes squeezed shut as she uttered a small whimper and rubbed at her lower back next to the stem of where her tail began under her dress. After a second or two she bowed her head in a manner that was apologetic, "So sorry! I didn't notice...!"

Adriel dropped the shirt he was holding as he was walked into Surprised Fuu caught it but managed to drop the bag it was holding to the floor. It then sheepishly laid the shirt down and reached to pick up the bag on the floor. Chii however was more interested in the girl that had run into them.
Turning Adriel looked to his assailent only to be surprised to see Wynni.
"Wow Wynni long timeno see." He exlaimed though he laughed at her apology. Chii lightly put the bag down on the ground before reaching out demanding attention from the girl.

The pre-teen blushed so much that the tips of her pointed ears turned a light reddish color as she looked up and realized that it was Adriel that she had rudely rammed into! She had recognized the voice though it was much old, "Adriel! Fuu! Chii! They're better!" She said in a happy tone as she stumbled to get her footing but not being sure to make sure to snatch up the very important permission slip from the floor from where she dropped it. She giggled at Chii and reached out a hand to pet at the tentacle, "Yes! Hi! I see you!" the girl said adoringly to the tentacle.

Adriel's laughter boomed through the store. He really seemed different from the stuttering soft spoken boy from before.
"They do seem very happy to see you as well." He said, though he knew they wanted more than hugs. In fact Fuu was poking at Wynni's arm for attention whilst Chii got all of Wynni's pets.
"they are still..up to no good, but they are behaving better than before." he stated with a nod of his head.
"what brings you to the mall Wynni?" He asked after a moment seeing her grab the slip from the air.

Wynni tilted her head at this new Adriel but still smiled brightly at him as the blush faded and she simply held onto the paper she had caught, finally. She petted Chii and then turned her attention to Fuu being careful to divide her attention and adoration between the two rascally tentacles so as that neither got jealous. To her they were almost like strange wiggling dogs that were always excited to see her because she treated them so well.

"I am glad they are happy to see me! They are such sweet dears, and you grew! You're so handsome now, Adriel." She gushed happily as she looked up at her oldest (literally) friend. "Oh I am here to get another ear piercing." She said cheerfully, her tail wagging just slightly behind her.

Adriel nodded his head the tentacles happy as clams to have her attention. She certianly knew how to please them. It reminded him of Mareike in a way.
"Oh? Your ears peirced again?" he recalled his first time and that was enough for him.
"I am glad you seem to be doing well Wynni, tell me what you have been up to. I've dnoe enough clothes shopping I think for now. Let me accompany you to the ear piercing parlor." He said in a much more gentlemanly sort of way.

Wynni giggled and nodded as she absently petted at the tentacles, "Yep! Again, I just liked it so much the first time and there are so many pretty earrings." She seemed excited as she talked about earrings. The pre-teen tilted her head a bit as he offered to come with her. She'd love the company of course but she didn't want to drag him from his other duties, but then again he seemed to have completed his business here. After a moment she nodded excitedly, "Yes! Come with me Adriel! It'll be fun and we can go to lunch afterward." She definitely was more excited now.

Adriel nodded his head though the idea of food nearly made him drool he had to remind himself that he was trying to loose weight not gain it.
"Not sure about lunch but we shall see." He agreed with a laugh as he had Chii and Fuu shitft about as he moved towards the girl. Somewhat hoping she didn't noticed his weight gain to his stomach.
"You really seem to like jewerly." He stated after he managed to stand up close to her.

Wynni tilted her head as she began lead the way forward once she had managed to get all her things in order, "Oh? Well hope you don't mind if I grab something small for on the go at least, ice cream sounds really good," she chattered happily not seeming to notice the weight gain upon her friend, but she seemed pretty oblivious to such subtle changes when first meeting with a friend she hadn't seen for a while.

"Huh? Oh yeah! I love jewelry, they can make a person look really nice," she said gleefully, her tail twitching back and forth at the tip in an excited fashion. "I'm babysitting to help keep my money up for more jewelry and stuff," the tall pre-teen giggled a bit. "It is a good thing they're all so cute!"

He nodded his head listening to her happy vioce. He missed her, then again he missed most of the people he hadn't seen in a while. He gave her a large smile as he then started to walk in the direction of the parlor.
"That is awesome to hear! You must have a lot of energy to look after children." he said with a laugh, she was diligence afterall.

"So have you picked out the new earrings yet?" He asked while they walked.  

[jayoku]

Running into Wynni part 2

The pre-teen grinned at Adriel and nodded, "Yeah, you gotta have a lot of energy to keep up with them otherwise they try to sneak somethin' past ya and even then they manage some sort of mischief," the spawn giggled softly and shrugged a bit as she moved enter the parlor, like most places in the mall it didn't have a door that needed to be opened in order to enter.

"I got a couple I want, for my new piercings I am gonna just gonna go with studs for now, they are easier to take out and take care of." Wynni said with a nod as she approached the counter, "You sure you don't want anything? My treat!" It was a delight for her to treat her friends with whatever she had.

Adriel chewed on his lower lip as she offered the icecream as a treat..he felt half starved.
"Uh...sure..just a small though...and any flavor. Not picky." He finally caved in, he had looked at them...that had been an bad idea. "But I can pay you don't have to.." he rushed after a moment reaching for his wallet in his back pocket.

Wynni wrinkled her nose over at Adriel, "Fine pay for your own," she said teasingly as she made her order for a mint with chocolate chip for herself and a small chocolate and vanilla twist for Adriel since he had basically said she could choose for him. Now she stood at the register paying for her own fidgeting slightly as she waited for the ice creams to be prepared.

"What have you been up to, Handsome?" she asked openly.


His face went beat red at the comment of him being handsome he wasn' use to getting compliments like that. Ever. Well except from Duncan anyway.
"Uh...not much...moved into my new place, ....got a boyfriend too.." he added which only added further to his red face. He wondered if Wynni knew Duncan at all.
He rubbed the back of his hair looking a bit sheepish at revealing this information.
"Nothing major though." He gave an embarrassed laugh.

Wynni giggled a bit as she took the ice creams and waited for Adriel to pay for his half before handing him his cone, "Yeah? That's great!" She seemed amused by his blushing more than anything else. It was always so fun when he blushed for some reason and she couldn't seem to get over it but she tried not to do it too much lest it made her friend uncomfortable, "A boyfriend huh? Is he nice?Does he treat you good?" She asked with a small tilt to her head.

The pre-teen sincerely hoped Adriel was being treated well; if not ... She'd find a way make it better, somehow.
