Welcome to Gaia! ::

(I get the feeling that you missed him too KB XD)

Palian allowed her to pull him along, not caring that she dragged so ernestly. They passed all the crowds unnoticed as another band began setting up. He caught a glimpse of another couple dancing and it made his ever present grin widen.

"Seems I'm not the only one who is enjoying your performance," he murmured to himself. Seeing Ryo with someone, anyone other than Tsukiko made the dream demon very happy. It meant he wouldn't be fawning so pointlessly after her, though he was wrong to think that it didn't make things interesting. She was his, no other way of putting it. So it was a relief to see his only obstacle distracted so thoroughly.

"Unlike you, I have no shame," he stated blandly to her comment about privacy. He let the implications of that go unsaid with a naughty grin. "But the consideration is noted and will be redeemed in kind."

He couldn't help the chuckle as he collapsed into the nearest chair after she practically jumped him. It was fine, really. He liked being assertive, but being dominated like this had its own perks. It all came down to being wanted, if he was being honest with himself. Just another bit of proof that he was more than just a figment of a twisted boys imagination.

Directing her so they were both more comfortable, he made her sit on his lap, her dress and legs spilling on either side of him. Her kisses felt so hurried and desperate to him, like she was afraid he'd go poof and disappear at any moment.

"Don't worry, I'm off duty tonight," he told her softly as he ran his hands up her arms. "I'm not going anywhere unless you want me to."

The skin that he brushed along her arm got bumpy from his residual energy. It recognized him, which made sense considering she was his major source of power at the moment.

Tsukiko shivered and blushed slightly. "I love when I get to keep you to myself." She said hugging his neck with a smile on her face. "I hope I'm not going to get sleepy though. I want to spend as much time with you as possible." With that she put her forehead on his and giggled.

"Shame no, I'm just selfish and I want you all to my self so I never have to share you with anyone." She muttered softly as she just stared at him for a moment, savoring her time for once.

"Why haven't you come for me though...I kept waiting, but you never showed up. I kept having nightmares so I quit sleeping. I was starting to think I had made you up...." She didn't want to admit it, but she did. "I tried to call for you, but I wasn't exactly sure how. Every time I tried I just felt more and more alone."

She gave a small smile though, wanting him to know she was happy to have him here now though. Biting her lip she didn't want to be sad tonight though. Placing her hands softly on his shoulders she kissed him softly. She wanted to go to the beat of the music, but she wanted to take her time. So everything was clashing. It was frustrating slightly and she pulled back.

Trying to figure out something that felt more right she ended up biting him on the neck. How hard it was to keep her emotions under control. Humming softly though as she bite him, it made her feel much better. Pulling back she kissed it and kept it at that. Part of her actually wanted to leave of mark, just to prove she did. To prove that this had happened. Though she didn't want him to get in trouble, she almost laughed at the idea.

Smirking slightly she brought one arm to move his hair out of her way. "I hope this doesn't hurt to much." With that she bite him again before sucking softly. She didn't even know if it would leave a mark, or if she was even doing it right. Humming softly, she could still feel her adrenaline going from her performance. If worse came to worse she would blame it on that.

"Not a good idea to tell a crazy girl that, she might just take you and lock you up in her room. Though that's apparently not appropriate for teenagers, since you are the one with no shame after all." She muttered softly and let her lips ghost slightly against his skin. "You should be more careful Palian." Tsukiko had to admit though, she was enjoying this. It was only a matter of time before she calmed down, but honestly she didn't want to calm down. She wanted to prove that she could be the 'bad' one.

The she actually realized how they where sitting and laughed. "You really don't have any shame do you....good." With that she continued to kiss his neck. She wanted an answer, but she didn't need one.

Ryo chuckled slightly, how long had it been since he acted normal. Before he became Tsukiko's weapon....or around that time. Had it really been that long, was that why she quit loving him like she use to, because she managed to keep moving forward, and he had just stopped. Then he had blamed her for all of it, but it had been all his. It almost hurt to see her run by with the demon. He had ignored her performance, all of it. Now she was off, each of them got their chance. He knew she was taking his, he needed to take his.

"Some times I wonder if that Lady Gaga is like us." He mused out loud as the danced. "That or if she's just crazy." He just felt like stating something, to make it less awkward for him. His mind was in 50 other places right now, but mostly he just cared if Katanna was having fun. It wasn't his exact type of music, but he didn't exactly care tonight. He was here to just try and move on from Tsukiko.

Ryo didn't consider himself normal, nor did her ever want to. He was a little crazy himself, but he liked that about himself. For him there wasn't a reason to be. He knew what he was and he accepted it for that. No reason to pretend or hide. Even in the school, it could be honestly worse. They could be treated them like animals, and forcing them to have babies....then again by letting them have this dance, it could be what they where doing. Ryo never could tell with the bastards. It almost made him laugh to think about it, but none the less he kept dancing with her. Letting her live in this moment, letting her have it for what she wanted it for.

"I am not some sandman to make you slumber," he playfully countered. Indeed, he would rather not have to shift things to his realm for a while. Though he didn't care which they were in at the moment, he knew that the experience was more vivid and entertaining when he was solid enough to feel it. This physical realm had more sensations that he was having far too much fun experiencing. No, he would take his time playing here.

When she asked him why he had not come for her before now, Palian stilled a heartbeat, his smile dimming to a grin.

"I was not allowed," he stated simply as he draped his arms over her shoulders. "Master needed me so I could not leave. Even if I wanted to." Even as he said it, he remembered the last few days with a cringe.

"He has a wicked tongue on him, all the more sharp when he's right." He remembered their fights, ending only when Nemo's newest creation came out to separate them. The angel, a deceptively calm creature that never spoke, caused more fear in the boy than Palian could ever muster. Nemo had actually stepped behind him to get out of her eyesight.

"It took us a while, but I think we've come to an agreement of sorts," he admitted. At this point he grinned pointedly, his sharp teeth glimmering in the light. Idly, he ran his fingertips along the skin between her bare shoulders.

"But I could hear you calling me. I'd try to reply as best I could, but I don't really know how it works myself," he said as she kissed him. Then with donning realization, he snapped his fingers.

"That's why you had the nightmares." It made perfect sense, if he thought about it. He was a creature derived from a nightmare, it would only follow suite that he would be able to communicate using nightmares.

His thoughts were scattered then when she bit him on the neck. At first he thought, 'so this is what being bitten feels like.' Then it switched to, 'I don't know what everyone is whining about. This doesn't feel nearly as agonizing as they make it look and sound.' This thought made him laugh with dark humor.

He wanted to tell her exactly how he thought about her biting him, but it broke out as a growl when she did it again. His hands, which had rested like butterflies on her back, pressed her closer. His breath came out icily onto her skin as he panted into her shoulder. The room was warm, though he was not.

"If I had a heart, I think it might have burst just now," he laughed breathlessly. His snowy hair fell over his eyes, so he swished them to one side with a jerk of his head. As she continued to nuzzle his neck, Palian took the time to breath in her scent. The ability to smell was the most compelling of senses that he was new to.

That was only crippled by the growing awareness of his body. The more Tsukiko continued her determined ministrations, the more he began to notice a familiar problem. He wasn't surprised by it this time, but he wasn't quite sure what to do with it either. In the end he figured, what the hell, his body was just doing what came natural. He wasn't one to deny his nature, being real hadn't changed that.

As they swayed back and forth to the music, Fyte couldn't help but steal quick glances at Nemo's face. It wasn't too hard to do since she was still slightly taller than her friend, though she was still just as flustered. The charming shade of pink her face had turned revealed her thoughts, which were running quite amuck in her mind. Negativity popped up first, poisoning her thoughts to convince her that she was only dreaming or it was just some cruel joke Fate had sent her way. However, the small hope remained, that this was reality, and she really was in Nemo's arms. Fyte was so lost in her thoughts, she had almost missed Nemo's confession. Almost.

Fyte, I like you.
Those four words rang in her ears, making her freeze right there. Echoing in her mind, above the roar of the crowd and the pounding music, those four words stunned her.

Fyte, I like you.

Dazed, Fyte took a step back away from Nemo in order to see his face clearly. She could feel her heart pouring in her chest, and unconsciously, her hand clasped the cloth right above her heart. "N-nemo, I…" The words failed her, and her chest tightened a bit with nervousness. Oh come now, she chided herself he's already confessed to you. Don't deny him what's been running around your head for a while. Taking a deep breath, she tried again. Nemo… I-I… I really like you too!" She exclaimed, spilling out her feelings quickly. Turning a shade darker, she watched Nemo, wondering how he would react.

[[Finally posted! OTL I'm sorry it took me so long~ But whoo! You get to see Fyte's very flustered response =w=]]

Wrapping his arm around her waist he pulled her closer to him. "Who said I was ever going to let you go." He whispered in her ear as they started dancing again. Honestly he was having to much fun to let her go. It was the first time he was enjoying him self like this in a really really long time, and he didn't want it to end after just a few dances.

In truth the music was loud, and the gym was crowded and hot. He hadn't wanted to come, because for the most part he was going to regret coming. Now he was really happy he had came for the most part he was really enjoying him self. It wasn't ever day in his life a girl he barely knew wanted to stand this close to him and hold her body this close to his. The feeling wasn't uncomfortable, but very welcoming. He was starting to like this girl more and more with each dance.

Smiling slightly at the girl that danced so close to him. He wasn't even sure himself if he was teasing or not. He was for sure he was enjoying himself though, that much he did know. And the fact that this girl wasn't Tsukiko, that she was almost the exact opposite of the girl he had been pinned over for years made her a little nervous deep down. Tsukiko and himself would always be best friend, they would always be together some how. No he was starting to realize, that life actually didn't actually look that bad this way. It was just the beginning though, and he wasn't sure of the ending, but if this was it right now. He was glad he had made his own revelation. If nothing else he was happy to make a new friend.

Smiling again he took her hand and spun her before bringing her back in close and placing both hands on her hips. If she was going to tease him with them, then she shouldn't mind this. The dark lonely world that the weapon and the witch had been for several years had been slowly ripped apart. Now it didn't seem so bad. He had other friends now, and so did she, they didn't always need each other.



((This post sucks of course : ( I tried hard though. ))

She let out a squeal of surprise and happiness as he spun her around. Laughing, she tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear before hugging him close to her. "It's perfectly fine. That was actually fun." Fyte grinned, feeling extremely giddy now. The music had long faded into background noise for her, and all she could think about was the shy boy in front of her. Everything seemed to be going so right these past few hours, especially the last. I wish tomorrow would never come… she thought to herself for a moment, then silently laughing the idea away. If this was the perfect moment, then the future was bound to have plenty more, ne? Fyte honestly couldn't have asked for anything better for the dance. Realizing that she was probably making Nemo uncomfortable with her closeness, she stepped away shyly.
