"You may think that we are all just flesh-sacks, but I don't." Ciara said quietly, his voice quivering. "And I never said anything about you personally. I didn't mean anything when I compared you to dogs, just that someone that is starving can be difficult to control. Every creature is like that, so you don't need to get so defensive!" He got a little louder, and placed his hands on his hips. "And can you blame me for being scared? People fear what they don't understand, and, guess what buddy, I don't get you at all!"
"AND," Ciara added, lifting his arm, "the bruises that you put here aren't helping your case!"

"Well if you didn't freak out and rip your arm away, those bruises never would've appeared. But I never said that's what I believed, I said that's what we are. And scientifically, it's true. You also have to be specific when saying things that could insult others or get you killed. Not that they would've attacked you, most likely. At the Inn it's mostly nice and polite people."
He paused "I never got why people were scared of us, we're more vulnerable than anyone. But obviously I'm going to get defensive, do you know how many people hate and fear us? For no reason? Just those fairytales you've been read as children to make you eat your broccoli or some stupid s**t like that. You say you don't get me? I'm the same as you, except older and with a different diet."
He groaned and turned to lean against a building, resting against it with his head and closing his eyes, as his watch beeped "Well, now I know I have five hours until the blood donor clinic opens, there's a piercing place down the street, a few blocks past mine. Go, shoo, be free little boy." he muttered, suddenly in a not-caring mood.

Ciara fumed for a moment; yeah, it was his fault Taibalt bruised him! Whatever. His expression changed a bit, cooling down as he listened to Taibalt continue to speak. He watched him, his expression changing. His eyes followed as Taibalt rested his lean body against a wall.
Ciara let out a breath, and leaned against the building next to Taibalt. He stuffed his hands in his pocket, his head down. "I didn't mean it like that. I ... I guess I was scared just because of what I've heard, and I didn't give you a chance." Ciara reached up, pulling his ponytail over his shoulder. He started play with it nervously.
Ciara leaned down, standing slightly under Taibalt. He looked up, so that the other would be able to see him when he opened his eyes. "Let's start over, okay? Hi. I'm Ciara, and I would love to have you pierce my lip."

Taibalt smiled, sure he was still mad at Ciara, but he wasn't going to let his feelings have an effect on him. "Hi Ciara, I'm George, and I'm a wannabe-shoe-polisher with no life and I like McDonalds." He stood up and grinned at Ciara before he started walking again.
((yeah, shortest post in history, XD))

Ciara stood, following Taibalt. "Haha, smartass." He said, nudging him with his elbow. He didn't think Taibalt was in a good mood, so he did the only thing he could think of.
Moving to stand in front of Taibalt, Ciara reached up, wrapping his arms around Taibalt's shoulders. Quickly, he kissed Taibalt.

Taibalt returned the kiss and wrapped his arms around Ciara in a tight squeeze before pulling away, a soft smile on his lips.
"That was nice, Ciara... but don't do it again, alright? You get attached and you could only end up hurting yourself." He ran his hand down, trailing his fingers along Ciara's jawline before he started walking again.

Ciara blinked, then glared. He worked his way out of Taibalt's arms, eyes narrowed hotly. "What do you mean don't get attached?" Ciara said, once more following Taibalt as he started to walk. "Why wouldn't I? You just said that you were just like me!"
He forced himself in front of Taibalt, laying his palms flat on Taibalt's chest. "Wait!" He ground out. "You said it was nice, so why are you being so cold?" Ciara's eyes softened a little. "I really don't understand you."

Taibalt frowned and shut his eyes. "Well, we are alike, except that I'm not able to go out in daylight, and I'll be alive for possibly a thousand years longer than you."
He opened his eyes and looked down at Ciara "If you get attached, you'll want to see me more, if you do that you wont get to sleep at night and it's ruin your schedule, it's unhealthy. Plus, maybe I'm being selfish in a way too. If I get attached to you, and then you die on me..." He trailed off, he crossed his arms and looked up at the sky.

Ciara shook his head, looking away. He couldn't think of anything to say. He did the only thing he could think of, which was becoming a habit. He lifted his hand, swinging it at Taibalt's cheek.
After that, Ciara gathered anger and frustration around him like a cloak, and turned. He ran towards his apartment, and away from Taibalt.

Taibalt frowned, he felt bad, and not just because Ciara's emotions were washing over him either, a lone tear slid down his cheek before a sound erupted from his throat, in between a growl and a scream of anguish.
Suddenly his eyes flashed a crimson colour before fading back to it's original voilet as he 'fang'd' out, biting his lips and almost relishing in the pain and the feeling of the blood running down.
He walked to the alleyway, and punched a wall, a hole quickly forming before he fell to his knees on the ground and ended up hitting that. His head down and the mini-puddles of blood and his punching were the only thing he was concentrating on.
A few seconds later he stopped and leaned back slightly, his head turned up to the sky as his teeth reverted to it's original shape. His hands lay on the ground, his one fist full of bloody knuckles, but he was starting to heal already, so he didn't even care. 'It'd be perfect if it started to rain now,' he thought, 'just wasn't everything away, then maybe I wont act like such an angst-baby.'

Ciara heard the scream; it sent chills up his spine. He turned, running back to where he had left Taibalt. He hadn't meant to hurt him; he had just been angry.
Ciara saw Taibalt; he watched him around a corner until he went into the alley. He watched as he broke the wall, then continued hitting it. Ciara wanted to move forward, but he was a little scared to.
Once he had stopped, Ciara moved forward. He kneeled down, touching Taibalt's shoulder. "Hey..." He murmured, kissing the Taibalt's temple.

"If you're scared, why do you keep talking to me?" He asked, not moving the slightest bit. He had told himself he wasn't going to like mortals, not in any way, shape or form. He should just walk away from Ciara, maybe go to see Mizo. But no, he broke his one rule in life. Nice job Tai.
"And I know you're scared cause I can feel it, I'm an empath too, in case you didn't know." He slumped down from his knees and pulled them to his chest in a casual sitting position, finally wiping the blood away from his mouth and chin. "I still mean what I said before, we're going to get hurt." He glanced over at Ciara, "that's not ever going to change." He didn't say it at a threat or a warning, just as a state of fact. He was curious right now, this boy seemed to act different around him, unlike the thousands of other people he had other met. It was odd, almist intriguing.

"Well... I was scared because I just saw you bring down a wall with your hands." He said honestly, placing his hand on Taibalt's cold cheek. "and I'm scared to stay near you, but I'm scared to leave. I don't understand you, but you are different than anyone else I hae ever met."
"And, I know I'm going to get hurt, but I don't care. There's no other way to get a lip piercing without pain, right?" He winked, giving Taibalt a thumbs up. "Come on. Let's do it."

He shuddered as he heard the popping sound, shaking his head "Ugh! I can't stand how some people do that!" He said, continuing to smile as he looked at the other, giggling softly. "Oh!" He said, shaking his head and giggling "Where are my manners... My name's Tensai.. And you are?"

Taibalt smiled and stood up, grabbed both of Ciara's hands and pulling him up with him. "Good, so let's go!" He wrapped an arm casually around Ciara's shoulders as he randomly started talking about something. ..."-you won't believe how snooty the women get, I mean... tons of years ago, when the women-thing started, they were burning bras then got upset when people looked at their boobs. I didn't I have more respect for them, plus it was daytime so I was stuck with the news at night, but I think it's funny. People do things then never think of the consequences, this upcoming generation has got to be the most mature, yet most stupid I've ever seen! What with the drugs and the killings, makes a person want to move to the arctic or something!"
Suddenly he stopped in front of a building with all of it's windows painted a dark colour in a weird picture that couldn't be identified in the dark. He took his keys out of his pocket and unlocked the door, tossing the huge set of keys to a random table as he went inside and headed towards a room for his piercing equipment, he brought it out and turned on the lights as he headed back.
He handled this store-thing with his sister Tatriana, who was like him also obviously. There were pictures of all the tattoo's and piercings they had ever done all over the walls, and then a couple of themselves scattered around obviously.
He pointed to a chair "sit down," He said as he got everything ready and cleaned it in a nearby sink.
