Swimming Lessons
(( Watch Out: Boys Kissing.
Msn rp with Orpheus ))
Geia looked across the pool in a thoughtful manner, sizing up the distance between one side of the pool and the other. Going the short way would be the best way to start this... he also told Vorel to stay on edge of the pool and out of the water. If the water stayed calm he should be able to do this... he'd only fallen in the first time because Vorel came up out of the water and knocked him in.
Not that he would ever tell the Frost that since he was already pacing back and forth at the other side of the pool, awaiting the worst...
Geia open his wings up, giving them a flap before he reached one bare, fluffy foot out to rest it on the surface of the water and slowly but surely the ice appeared under his foot. He gave a flap of his wings as he stepped out with the second food, and flailed his arms to maintain his balance, "Ah! Look, Vorel! I got it!" He called out, standing letting himself steady out and the ice that he stood on spread a bit giving him a better perch.... okay... he could stand on the water... now for the next step... which would also be his first step from ice to ice... he lifted a foot moving it forward and the moment it touched the water it froze over under it.
The owl felt his heart skip a beat as he move to take the next step... the ice formed under his foot but ended up a bit to thin, shattered even under his light weight and there was a giant splash as once more Ligeia ended up in the pool.
Chath and Keir had come to the pool mostly for a change in scenery, Chath himself was getting tired of the same old routine of battling it out ni the backyard and honestly...he wanted to swim. Keir on the other hand though this a good chance to practice his attacks on the newt boy just like at his last lesson. He stepped into the pool area a towel draped across his shoulders when he noticed at first the large shape of Vorel, his gaze then flickered around the room to find the boy who was undoubtedly with him. His boyfriend Ligeia. He spotting him...floating? A few feet from the edge of the pool, he gaped a bit not noticing the ice under his feet. Raising a hand to say something to the owl boy his words were chocked in his throat as suddenly the boy plunged into the water.
Alarmed he tossed his towel to the ground and rushed forward, diving into the pool seamlessly. Even if Geia wasn't in trouble it didn't hurt to act quickly. The second lens dropped over his eyes to protect it from the water and he looked around for the owl hoping against all hope that Geia was already swimming to the edge. He couldn't recall if the owl could swim or not.
Keir on the other hand moved to the edge of the pool to watch the going ons. Great...the blue one was here which meant that Chath's mate was here....wonderful..no training was going to get done at all today.
Vorel had been about to dive into the water when.. something else was suddenly diving into the water instead. He starred, wide eyed before he lifted his gaze over to where Keir was. Vorel relaxed then, it was Chath that had gone into the water which meant that Ligeia would be fine. The newt would take good care of his mate after all. None the less the frost watched the water closely, just in case the newt were to slow...
Geia gave a mental curse as he found himself sinking into the water once more and set to using his arms, legs, and wings to attempt to right himself in the water though he was really... bad at swimming, many limbs and none of them very coordinated it would seem. He wasn't the deepest part of the pool but even being able to right himself and find the bottom was proving a little tough... he was sure that Vorel would help him if he ended up in a lot of trouble though so he wasn't as worried as he should be.
Chath spotted him quickly enough and though he was flailing about he didn't look as if he was...drowning yet. Using his tail to propel himself forward he may not ever be as fast as a dolphin based child but it would do well enough.
Soon he was beside Geia and he reached forward using his hands to grab the owls arm to help right him and lead him up towards the surface. He noticed though the owl weighted...a LOT. The soaked feathers and hair was dragging him down. Slipping in closer he wrapped an arm around Geia's waist. And with a thrust of his tail helped to move the boy to the surface.
The owl boy was... a bit surprised when he felt someone catching hold of his arm, dragging him up toward the surface. His eyes went wide when he realized who was there and half wondered if he had been under the water to long and started to hallucinate? He started to kick his feet as they moved toward the surface to help bring himself upward and gave a gasp and a cough as they broke the surface of the water and was never happier to have air.
He gave a bit of a flap of his wings before looking toward the edge of the pool, so close yet so far he though as he tried to maneuver his way in that direction.
Chath took a breath out of habit when he broke the surface while in water he barely needed to breath...since his skin could gather the oxygen from the water through osmosis.
"S..stop flailing." He laughed as he felt water spray from the wings and he helped guide Geia to the edge of the pool. Dimly he was aware this was the first time he was able to get so close to Geia... without needing to resort to sprays or worrying about his sensitive skin. The moisture made him fine...and when he got Geia to the edge he only released him when he felt the boy had a firm hold on the ledge.
Ligeia caught hold of the edge of the pool, giving a little cough before he looked over to the side, blinking a couple times, "Ahh... Chath?" He murmured, starring at him then his face went red as he felt the urge to sink back under the water. How embarrassing... to be caught looking like a drown rat, "Good... afternoon." His voice was much quieter now, sounding a bit shy over it and he lifted one hand to attempt to push his hair out of his face.
Chath only looked over Geia his own hair plastered to his head as he offered the owl one of his goofy smiles.
"you know learning how to swim is usually done in the shallower end first." He teased as he kicked off and away from the wall enjoying the feel of the water on his skin. He seemed at home in the water.
Keir grumped as nothing exciting happened and he lay down at the edge of the pool glowering at his boy.
Ligeia watched the way Chath moved so easily in the water before giving a little pout, "Not exactly learning swimming." He explained, opened his wings up and set to flapping them rapidly while he pulled himself up out of the pool. It took him a couple of tries before he was able to pull out himself out and sat down on the edge of the pool.
He lifted his hands up to squeeze out his hair of the water once again before he looked over to Chath, watching him as he swam, and found himself starring at him. He didn't mean to but he couldn't help it...
Chath watched as Geia pulled himself out of the water he blinked a couple of times before smiling again.
"Well whatever your doing don't scare me like that. Do you even know how to swim?" He asked with a tilt of his head as he swam backwards his tail propelling him backwards through the water. He wanted to chuckle...poor Geia looked so sodden and soggy wet. It was insanely cute.
The owl opened his wings out wings to let them drip dry, "I am... getting better at the spell but... no. I can't quite swim." He said before giving a bit of a laugh, "At least I wasn't fully dressed when I fell in this time." He blinked a couple times as he realized telling Chath that he had fallen in before didn't fall under the category of 'not scaring him'... oops.
"It was alright though!
Vorel fished me out of the pool pretty quickly." He assured the newt.
Frowning he looked Ligeia over and switching position swam back to where Geia was sitting.
"You shouldn't be doing something like that if you couldn't swim. I know Vorel can help you but...what if something prevented him from helping?" He stated in a scolding manner. He then noticed that Geia was...only wearing swimming shorts. It was the first time he had ever seen him with so little clothes on. His face flushed slightly as he leaned on the edge of the pool with his arms. His skin sensitivity was way down since he was hydrated. Looking away a bit embarrassed by his lingering gaze he coughed.
"You know I could teach you to at least treed..."
Ligeia glanced over to where the Frost dragon was sitting, watching him quietly before he lowered his gaze back down to Chath, "Ahh... I didn't exactly think that far ahead." He said, flushing a bit. He kicked his feet in the water a little bit, "I was just thinking about how I wanted to figure out how to walk on the water."
His eyes widened a bit at the offer, "Really? You would help me with learning that?" He gave a happy flutter of his wings and nodded, "That would be neat."
Neat wasn't the word he would of used but he smiled at his enthusiastic reply.
"Well you said you would help me with my magic...so its a n equal trade." He chuckled as he then pushed away from the edge and waved for Geia to move towards the shallower in.
"Come walking in instead of jumping in. I think the problem is your wings get so heavy so quickly when you drop in you get thrown for a 'loop'." he commented eying the large wings warily.
Ligeia nodded, pushing to his feet and walked from where he was sitting down to the steps that led into the shallow end of the pool. He lifted his wings up above the water as he walked into it not wanting to get them to wet again since they weighed a lot wet... though his hair was the same. For a moment he found himself considering a hair cut but he didn't want to do something so drastic as he loved his hair.
He looked over to where the newt was then moved toward him in the water. It was far different walking in then it was just taking a tumble into the pool, less stressful as well, "Alright, what is step one?" he asked, head tilting to the side.
Chath swam until he was close enough and then righted himself and let his feet plant themselves on the ground. Standing up he let the water drop over him freely as he smiled at Geia.
"Well first the best thing to learn is how to 'float'. Your pretty light as it is, but...surface area is what will save you. So ..." he looked at the wings, "I am thinking if you lay on your back and spread your wings you would be pretty buoyant." He suggested.
Ligeia looked at the water before he nodded his head before nodded, "I... alright, I will try that." He gathered his hair into a bundle over one shoulder so that it wouldn't try to weigh him down when he was attempting to float. The owl opened his wings wide before looking at Chath, "No laughing at me if I sink." Chath was so good as swimming that he was afraid of looking silly.
Chath motioned with his hands a cross his heart gesture before he half sank into the water to help support Geia if he needed to.
"Don't worry just try and relax. Fighting the water makes it your enemy."
The owl gave a happy smile before he leaned back in the water when he felt the newt helping to support him. It was an odd feeling to float on water in this manner even though not long ago he was trying to walk across it. He did his best to remain relaxed though he felt as though he should be doing something. When he was flying his wings needed to flap unless he caught a good air current to glide on... so just laying there to float seemed odd and it took everything he had to keep from flapping his wings.
Chath was glad he was ...welt built in the muscle department, Geia's body sank a bit in the water but it certainly wasn't enough to cause him to drown.
"remember to keep your wings spread out.." He added as he moved slightly so that he could spread his wings without worrying of hitting him.
The owl nodded, looking up at Chath and gave him a smile. This was made a lot easier with someone else there to help him and more so when it was Chath. He blinked a couple times when he realizes he was thinking more on the fact tat he was with Chath, being held by him, and tried to do as he was told by spreading his wings out farther. Concentrate, Ligeia... this is something important that your learning here he told himself mentally.
He let his arms and legs both rest on the water as well as spreading out the feathers of his tail as though that would help in making more of him to float on the water then waited for Chath to let him go to see if he were able to float on his own.
The newt slowly released the pressure on Geia's body lowering his arms until Geia was floating of his own. He stood there smiling at his boyfriend his tail swishing in the water behind him.
"Good good, now see how long you can do that for sometimes you may need to readjust your body to keep yourself floating. But don't do any sudden movements...you may sink." He warned the owl.
Ligeia would have nodded but didn't want to risk sinking because of that, he smiled when he realized that he was floating on his own, "Wow." He murmured, enjoying the feeling, "This is nice." It felt somewhat like flying when he let his eyes sink closed he thought to himself. He then tried to concentrate on adjusting as he was told here and there to keep from sinking under. He was able to keep himself up for a good span of time before his shifted a bit to much and lost the floaty feeling and started to sink... of course the moment he started to sink his wings instinctively started to flap which didn't help him at all.
Chath reached out to help steady and lift Geia into a standing position. He laughed as the flailing wings and the water it spread everywhere.
"You ...haha..can't do that..it will just make you sink faster." He said with a smile.
"But it was a good try." He continued as he held Geia's hand.
"Perhaps learning how to kick would be good, I think the frog kick or the breast stroke may be better for you since your wings would only get a bit wet rather than soaked." He continued with a nod of his head.
Geia felt himself relax when Chath helped him back to his feet, giving a sighing sound of relief when he was back on his feet once more. He looked up at the newt, finding himself feeling even shorter now that he was without his shoes and standing this close to the other teen. He blinked a couple times wanting to push up on his tips toes but resisted the urge. He was shorter then Chath and he was sure that he wasn't going to have some sudden growth spurt any time soon... he wasn't going to get to much taller.
He nodded his head when the different types of swim strokes were suggested to him though he wasn't sure what the two things consisted of, "Umm, alright..." He said, "How does one do a frog kick?"
Chath smiled down at him using a free hand to tuck some wet strands of hair behind his ear tufts.
"Its kinda hard to explain.." he started as he then released Geia and thought a moment.
"hm...not sure if you would like it since it would require you dunking your head under water....we may have to get you use to that first." He murmured.
"You don't have any fears relating to that do you?"
Geia wings gave a little flutter as Chath's hand tucked his hair back and he gave a little smile and flushed slightly... then blinked a couple times when Chath released him, "Huh? Oh, no. No fears of the water." He said, it was a bit of a problem really since he had no fear of the water which made it so he didn't fear trying to walk across it despite no good swimming experience.
"Why do I need to dunk under the water?" He asked of the newt boy, wondering what it had to do with frog kicking or the other stroke he'd talked about.
Chath moved a couple steps back and then a few paces to the side and turned.
"here its easier if I show you." He explained as he then went about demonstrating the frog kick. It...seemed like a strange stroke. His head coming up and out of the water where he would gasp for breath before sinking back under completely immersed, his back legs kicked out in a circular whist his hands did a similar motion. It was easy to see why it was called the frog kick. When done he swam back under the water and circle around Geia liking that he could be near him in an element he was so at home with.
The owl watched as Chath showed off what a frog kick was and he did his best not to giggle as he watched, it was a strange sort of way to swim wasn't it? Strange but it seemed to be a good way to get around in the water he thought to himself, turning around slowly to watch as he was circled. He highly doubted he would get that good at swimming but even enough so that he would be able to recover after falling in when testing out his random spells that he came up with would be good enough for him.
Chath was a bit impish as he reached out to stroke one of Geia's legs with a webbed hand before he came up and out of the water shaking the water from his hair. He was still smiling a bit goofily.
"Its a bit harder than the breast stroke...but we should first work on making sure you don't flail when under the water."
Geia gave a little jump at the touch to his leg, not expecting it when the newt swam closer. He gave a chuckle when Chath came out of water, shaking off like a dog and he grinned, "Your so good at swimming, I'm jealous." He said with a smile then flushed when he said the first thing that he had to work on was not flailing about under water. He gave a flap of his wings and glanced at them.
It was hard to keep them from flapping when he was doing things since normally they did a lot of the work, "I will do my best not to flail." He assured Chath.
Chath nodded his head and placed a hand on Geia's shoulder. His skin was a bit slick to the touch.
"Well there are plenty of birds who can manage it...though I am sure its a bit more natural to them since they would be water fowl." He said with a chuckle.
"Don't be jealous...I am just in my element. I am sure I would be a mess trying to learn how to fly if i had wings." He continued with a nod of head.
He smiled and nodded, "That's true." He murmured, he'd seen ducks swimming around rather easily before when he went to the park. He looked at his wings for a moment before closing them to his back wondering if he would do better at swimming if he kept them closed. He looked down at Chath's hand for a long moment before giving a bit of a smile. Was it just him or did Chath seem to be getting closer to him while they were in the water? He wondered if it were because he didn't have to worry about overheating, drying out, or fainting so it made him able to do so? He looked up at the newt then gave a smile, "Heh, that's true... even more of a mess if you were take one of my Dad's flying classes." He said with a laugh, having seen and help in many of those disastrous classes. He took a step closer to the newt, tilting his head back a bit so he could continue to listen.
Chath unconsciously was aware that Geia was getting closer to him, and his body responded by him taking a half step in turn towards Geia. It wasn't until he looked down he noticed just how close they were together, and he noticed Geia's face looking up at him, those lips just begging to be kissed. His face went ...red as the thought crossed his mind, he quickly looked away a hand running through his wet hair.
"L...llike anything...y..you will get better with practice." He managed to stutter out. He then coughed and tried to think of something else to say but was finding his brain...shutting down.
Ligeia tilted his head to the side as Chath seemed to suddenly get embarrassed over something and he gave a bit of a smile and a flush as his mind went racing through possible reasons for it and he did his best to ignore his creative imagination, "I... will do my best." He said, he had access to the pool anytime he wanted to use it so long as there wasn't a class going on so he would have plenty of time to practice.
Chath swallowed and then looked back to Geia...there were so many things he wanted to say...to explain... he was about to explain how they could get Geia to practice the breaststroke instead since it was the easier method to learn when he found himself leaning in to kiss Geia. He..was being very bold...but that could of been attributed to the fact that he was relaxed, while in the water he didn't have to worry about being dehydrated or overheating.
The owl boy's eyes got a bit wide then sank closed as Chath kissed him suddenly. He took another step in closer to the newt, hands lifting to rest lightly against Chath's chest as he returned the kiss in an enthusiastic manner, forgetting about swimming lessons in the light of something far more pleasant. His wings gave a flutter behind him, his cheeks pinkened, and he felt his heart beat quicken as well, all from Chath's kiss.
Chath seemed to catch himself as they parted, realizing what he had done he went pink as well and tried to chuckle awkwardly, oh god...he wanted to hide under the water for a while. Geia had said they had wanted to go slow right? But..perhaps it was because he felt so comfortable in the water he felt bold enough to do it.
"Ah..." he coughed a bit noticing how close Geia was he then patted his head lightly as if trying to move past his embarrassment.
The owl boy blinked a couple of times as Chath patted him on the head and he lifted his hands up for a moment to hide his reddened face, "Ahh.... Umm..." He wasn't sure what he should do or say, his mind going a bit blank. He chewed on his lower lip as he watched the newt. He had no idea what he should do or say at the moment, especially given all he wanted to do was pull Chath down to him for more kisses...
Chath shifted a bit also embarrassed so he took Geia's hand his face still blushing as he lead him to the shallowest part of the pool, he swallowed a bit as he turned and looked down at Geia. Noticing his own flushed face he felt like he needed to cool off. So he released his hand offered him his goofy smile and then slipped into the water. Feeling immensely better as soon as he was submerged, the shallow end only came up to Geia's waist there wasn't a lot of room to swim but he managed as he slipped closer to reach up a webbed hand to lightly clasp Geia's hand. He hoped he understood...
Geia watched as the young man sank down into the water. His wings gave a rapid fluttering as he tried to cool himself off with the air it was creating from the movements of them. Between that and the water he hoped to cool himself off... then looked down at the water when he felt Chath's hand on his. He blinked a couple times before he looked down at him. He tilted his head to the side before he took a deep breath and sank down into the water. Were they... going back to swimming practice then he found himself wondering. The cold water might help if nothing else.
Chath blinked as he watched Geia sink into the water beside him. Wow...he felt a bit overwhelmed with all his long hair swirling around him he looked...close enough to be an angel. He pulled Geia closer to him, the smile he gave him was a bit different than his normal goofy one, this one seemed..most...loving. He cupped Geia's cheeks in his hands and then leaned in and kissed him again.
The owl was a bit surprised when instead of more swimming lessons instead he got more kisses... something that he preferred far more. He moved closer to the newt so that he could hold onto him carefully as he returned the kiss. It was something he had to get used to, kissing under water as well as being careful not to inhale any water through his nose, and continue holding his breath. It was tricky but a skill worth learning he thought to himself, wings fluttering behind him.
Chath...found this experience quite ...interesting. He didn't flinch or feel any sort of pain when Geia touched him under the water of course...he could breath underwater...whilst Geia couldn't . Sometimes he was so use to what he could do ..he forgot others couldn't. He carefully kissed Geia....and at some point pressed his mouth quite firmly against his and breathed out the oxygen that he had stored in his lungs. His skin could gather more for him through the water. So it wasn't like he needed it. He just wanted to linger under the surface with Geia longer.
Ligeia's body gave a jump at the breath that Chath gave him and then gave a happy sound in his throat. Well now... that was a helpful trick now wasn't it? He flushed a bit but found this to be the most wonderful thing ever, Chath was able to help him to breath and make it so they could stay under longer. Given how pleasant it was and how the newt didn't have to worry about any of the out of water problems he was all for staying under as long as he could.
Keir grumbled and got up and paced back and forth on the ledge...this was no longer training ...this was...a make out session! He was outraged..he had only allowed Chath to rescue and help the other brat learn how to swim because it was still some form of training. Still...he couldn't bring himself to dive underwater to teach his boy a lesson...something held him back he ground his teeth together trying to figure out what it was.
Chath wondered briefly how well Geia could make him out, he was clear as a bell...perhaps even better than he saw on land. But he wrapped his arms around Geia continueing to run a hand through his boyfriends hair as he continued to give him kisses.
Vorel watched his boy with swimming but once it went from swimming to something more friendly he lifted one of his wings and let it be a curtain to give the others their privacy having no real desire to spy on such things. It did make him a bit curious though, wondering why they were playing in the water but... given the look on Keir's face he wasn't about to ask anything of him.
He would ask Geia later.

Magic Practice
(( Watch Out: Boys Kissing. MSN rp with Orpheus ))
Ligeia had gone to a couple of the terrain rooms with Vorel, looking them over, studying them, and otherwise trying to decide which among them would be best to train Chath in. The hardest part about it was the fact that he just wanted to pick the room with the pool and hope for the best... For that reason he'd decided upon the room with the waterfall. It would work best for what they needed the room for.
The owl was perched on the back of his dragon, working on braiding his hair so that it wouldn't be in the way, waiting for Chath in the hall on the floor where the terrain rooms were waiting. He looked at Vorel then smiled, "This should be fun." He chirped happily, wings giving a flutter.
Vorel looked him over then asked in Draconic, "Fun... like last time?"
Geia;s cheeks went pink, "Ahh no... not exactly the same sort of fun." He said, scratching the back of his had in an embarrassed manner.
Chath was in a good mood, despite going to work on something he dreaded he had to convince Keir that magic was beneficial to rounding out his skills. The dragon only grumbled stating that he would only tolerate it if they actually worked on the magic rather than making out. Chath only flushed at the comment but nodded his head, yeah the swimming lesson hadn't...worked out as he had planned as they had abandoned it for...uh...other things. He was glad when he spotted Geia and Vorel as soon as they had entered the building. He gave a way, his water bottle always at his hip.
Ligeia's eyes went over to where Chath was before he gave a smile, hopping down off of the dragon's back and walked over toward him, "Hello." He said, smiling happily as he got closer to him before he nodded to Keir, "Good afternoon Keir."
He turned his attention back to his boyfriend then, "I thought we would go to the waterfall room, it has a lot of flowing water there that we could use for our casting, that way we won't worry about expending energy summoning the elements."
Chath nodded his head and smiled as Geia came closer to him when he mentioned the waterfall room he shrugged.
"Sure that sounds like a good place to start." he agreed,
Keir only snorted in response to Geia's greeting, he just wanted this over with.
The owl gave a smile before he held up the keys he was holding, "Its nice being the son of a teacher at times." It meant that he was allowed to hang out in the terrain rooms where others might not normally be able to go to without Orpheus.
He turned to start down the hall toward where that room was located, "How have you been?" He asked, wings giving a little flutter as he walked along, reaching a hand out to lay it on Vorel's arm and the dragon started to trot along with his owl.
Chath gave a laugh at Geia's first comment. Orpheus...man he hadn't seen him since he helped with that one class.
"Hehe you should tell your father hi for me." He responded with a nod of his head as he went to keep pace with Geia. Course that meant he had to shorten his strides but he didn't care. He ...wanted to take the owl boy's hand...and was about to when he suddenly was asked about how he had been faring.
"Ah...well.." he withdrew his hand rather hastily and put it in his shorts pocket. "Interesting? I had anther class with a strange teacher...who teaches Melee. He isn't bad..just....weird." He commented as they walked.
"Oh? Which teacher is that, I might know him." He asked, looking through the keys he had before he got the one he needed and opened up the door. The room inside was like stepping into the outdoors, it was a field type area with a large waterfall that fell into a stream. The stream moved across the wall only to disappear where it met the wall to be brought back to the waterfall again.
Vorel gave Ligeia a nudge, "Good luck." He said in draconic before he turned to move forward, finding himself somewhere to lay down in the room where he would be able to watch.
Chath tried to dredge the teachers name out of his brain. It was a weird one..."Uh... Mr...Tsuzuki? I think that is how you say it.." he stumbled through the teachers name and then half shrugged. "Trust me if you had him you would know him... he is really weird." He continued as he then looked at their surroundings when they entered the room. It...really could be deceiving...it felt so much
like the real outdoors he could probably fool himself if he forgot he short trek through the hallways just moment earlier.
Keir growled and then reluctantly went to lay with Vorel. Not beside him of course....a few feet away...he still seemed off from their last encounter.
"Oh, yes! Mr Tzusuki, I went over to his place once before. He seemed nice if a bit unsure of himself." He said with a smile, then gave a happy sound. "I wonder how Saedah is doing, I really should visit them again." It had been a while since he'd seen the teacher and his little snake daughter and he really did miss talking with them.
The owl walked over to the water's edge and took off his long gloves, setting them aside as it was easier to do the magic when he could touch th elements with his bare hands.
Chath stopped a bit baffled as Geia told him this information. Unsure of himself? That man? Wait...Saedah?
"Uh...who is Saedah?" He inquired as he shook his head trying to clear his mind from the startling information and went to stand opposite of Geia.
"Saedah is Mr Tsuzuki's daughter, a really pretty little snake girl." He said with a smile, "Poor thing was so shy both times that I met her but I think I was able to make friends with her." She was such a darling, "Between her and Maria it makes me want one of my own more and more." He gave a laugh as he said that, kneeling down next to the water.
Chath felt his face flush at the last comment and he coughed and cleared his throat not sure what to say or reply with that.
"Ah...I didn't know he had a daughter." He had a tough time imagining Mr. Tsuzuki caring for a child. He then went to follow Geia's movements though his face was still a bit flushed.
"Ah I haven't met Maria, who is she?" He inquired feeling a bit out of the loop.
Geia gave a squeak, "OH! I'm so sorry... I was so... erm... preoccupied the last time we met." He murmured, his face going red, "I forgot to tell you, I feel so silly you won't tell Maria will you? Promise?"
Chath looked to him and then shook his head then nodded and then laughed.
"Ah...i promise?" He replied.
Ligeia gave a sound of relief, he felt so bad, "Good, good. Thank you." He said, "You see Maria is my little sister, my Dad look her in not that long ago. It was a bit of a surprise but I am sure there was a reason for him taking her so quickly." He reached down into the water to lay his hands on the surface then drew them up with a large orb of water fluttering under it.
Chath found this interesting, so Geia had a little sister now? Well..he could understand the feeling since he too had a little sister...he only hoped she ended up a better person than Zyan. He loved her..but she was a bit much.
He watched astonished as Geia lifted the globs of water out of the pond.
He looked over at Chath and smiled, "Alright, here." He said, turning his hand over and held one of the sphere out to Chath, "This is a lot easier then summoning the element, this way we don't have to exhaust our energy with that and will be able to channel that power toward other parts of the casting."
Chath looked a bit shocked to be suddenly handed the sphere. He looked like he just expected it to break in his hands and cause him to get a globe full of water all over him. But it stayed the same and he peered at it curiously as if wondering why it was still...intact.
"Wow...you did that so easily." He breathed..he was very impressed.
Ligeia gave a smile and a little flush, "Its... one thing I seem to be good at." He said, holding the sphere up before he looked down at the one that he was holding, "Alright, tell me how much have you done in your magic classes? So I know how far along you are."
Chath still stared at the sphere a little in awe.
"Uh..." he started as he struggled to think, "Well..I learned to summon about a marble sized sphere of water...and learned to shoot it..." He mentioned with a nod of his head.
He gave a nod, "Alright, show me the second part since you already have the water on hand?" He asked, feeling a little odd doing the teacher thing with his boyfriend but he had agreed to help him with his magic and saw it as the best way to go about things.
Chath looked to the large sphere of water in his hand a bit nervously. He...wasn't sure if he could 'throw' something this size.
"Uh...usually I just...lob it.." he said as he did just that and he lobbed the water sphere with a under throw as he didn't really know how to just throw a water globe this size.
The owl watched as Chath gave the water globe a toss and blinked a couple times. He gave a nod before he gave Chath smile, "Now lets see here... how about trying to draw a sphere up on your own? Its about the same as pulling it from the air but a bit easier."
Chath watched as the sphere he threw wobbled and then plopped back into the pond with a splosh. He felt a bit embarrassed before he looked to Geia and nodded his head a bit solemnly. He ...felt...rather stupid when it came to this.
Moving he closed his eyes and tried to remember how he did this before. He put his hand into the water trying to will the molecules into a globe. When he took his hand out of the water...there was a thin layer of water clinging to his skin...he tried to focus harder and will it into a sphere...and like unwillingly subjects the droplets slowly formed into a much smaller sphere in the palm of his hand. It was nothing compared to what Geia could pull off. But still he smiled sheepishly and held it out to Geia to look at.
The owl gave a happy smile as he watched the newt as he drew the water up from the stream and gave a nod, "Very good!" He said, watching the sphere that Chath had picked up on his own and gave him a nod, "Alright, now this part will take more concentration." He held his hands together under the sphere that he was holding so that the other could see. He let his eyes slid half closed before he drew his hands to the side leaving the sphere floating there between them.
Chath watched with a studious gaze, his gaze flickering between the hovering sphere and Geia's expression. Why did he have to make it....look so easy? Taking a slow deep breath he tried to do the same. He wanted the water to float, his hands trembled as he slowly withdrew it from under the sphere. It....sank drastically and Chath had to put his hands back under last minute to prevent it from breaking apart drawing all his energy and concentration again he took a deep steadying breath and lifted his hands to bring the water globe back to eye level before he tried it again. this time...is quivered and sank a few inches...but stayed aloft in the air. It...looked like it was quivering....
"Ahh, your doing pretty well Chath!" He said, giving a bright smile and looked very impressed with how well Chath was doing with the spell since he wasn't sure how well the newt would be at the casting, "You actually have a pretty good grasp on your element, probably because your always around it." Chath swam a lot, he carried the water bottle with him, he was close to his element at all times.
Chath looked up briefly and offered an unsure and crooked smile at the praise.
"haha...uh...t..thanks?" he replied though it was hard for him to talk...for when he started speaking the globe started to shudder and sink in the air. He returned his focus onto it gritting his teeth trying to keep it aloft.
Ligeia released his hold on the sphere he was holding so he could move his hands over and rest his hands against Chath's hands to help to steady the newt, "Relax, if you push yourself to hard you will burn through your energy to fast." He explained. It was a lot harder to teach something then to just do it he thought to himself, gaining more respect for all of his teachers, "Its like with flying or... well I guess for you swimming, if you kick to hard you will only wear yourself out, right?" He wasn't exactly sure... he hadn't practiced his swimming as he'd meant to do. It didn't seem nearly as fun a way to spend time without Chath there.
Chath nodded his head, he knew...what Geia was saying made sense....but magic was so hard for him to wrap his brain around. His face flushed as he felt Geia touching his hands. The ball of water literally exploded as his thoughts suddenly bolted to other thoughts. Blinking he looked as the ...air before him that was now empty.
"Aha...ha..." he started feeling the heat rise in his face.
The owl blinked a couple times before he started giggle a little, "Oh... wow... well how about we try that again?" He suggested, giving a smile as he watched the way that Chath started to flush a little. He felt a little guilty as he was sure that he had caused the newt to lose his control over his magic so he drew his hands back, "Maybe I should stay back while you practice."
Chath only nodded a bit glumly he felt like an idiot. Reaching back into the pond of water he drew another small globe out trying to regain his focus and then did what he was suppose to be doing. Letting it float around in the air before him though it still quivered it looked as if Chath was managing to keep it afloat.
"Its alright Chath, no reason to be upset your doing really well." Ligeia said, hoping that the newt didn't give up because he wasn't giving it right off. He shifted to sitting down and watched as the newt called up another sphere of water on how own. He gave a clap of his hands, "Good job!"
He watched the sphere closely before asking, "I'm curious, what sorts of things are you wanting to learn to do with your water element?"
Chath looked at the sphere of water a long time at the question Ligeia's posed at him. What...did he want to do with it? He..hadn't really thought much on it...since al he wanted at the moment was to get better at it.
"Uh.....figure out how to make it easier to do?" He said with a half laugh. What did he want to use the magic for? "What ...do you do with your magic?"
Geia gave a smile, "Well that is the first step and it will just take a lot of practice is all, I have put a lot of time into the element to be able to learn how to use it in the way that I use it." He explained, wanting to cheer his boyfriend on with his magic as it gave them more things to do together. It was why he was interested in learning to swim in the first place, that and because the newt had seemed eager for him to learn so he wouldn't drown himself.
"What... I do with it? Various different things." He said with a smile, he wasn't the sort to want to show off and normally the only ones that saw him casting her teachers, fellow students, and Vorel.
Chath tilted his head to him as he chewed on his lower lip. What was the purpose of him learning this?
"Um...I..w..was hoping I ..c..could use this when I fight." he mumbled feeling a bit ashamed to only be learning magic for the sake of using it against others. It felt kinda evil to him...but he also hoped to be able to keep Keir in check..physically he was no match for the black.
Ligeia gave a nod as he lifted a hand to draw one of the spheres over to his hand, looking into it. He wasn't sure what he thought of that, finding himself thinking on that one. He knew what magic could be used for and what it probably would be used for. One of his teachers had one told him that they were all soldiers, it would be better for Chath to know all he could to fight that better? He gave another nod, "Yeah... I suppose that it would be a good skill to pick up, to add to your physical abilities." He agreed finally.
Chath would be at an advantage compared to someone like Ligeia who couldn't fight in a hand to hand manner and could only wield magic. He made a motion with his hand to shatter the water into several globes of it that floated around his hand, "You should see about firing out the sphere at a high rate of speed, I can do something similar with my own element and it would make a good projectile weapon."
Chath looked as if he nearly choked on his words feeling a bit ashamed asking someone as gentle as Geia to teach him to wield magic so he could use it to fight.
"A.h....Mr. Barkhelm ...had....attempted to teach me that..." He explained with a slow nod of his head, "I, c..can only manage it wi...with a small small sphere.." He continued thinking on how the marble sized water globe had fired through a brick.
"i..I was th..thinking..c..could I..u..use it as a shield instead?" He inquired wondering if wielding magic in such a way would be possible.
He gave a nod of his head, "I would think that you could do that." He murmured, relaxing a little when Chath said he was going to use the magic in a more defensive way. He gave a nod of his head, "It would take a lot of practice on your part to be able to manipulate the amount of water needed to make a shield but I think its possible. I've shaped my element into many different things."
Chath swallowed and nodded his head, "y..yeah a shield...and I will practice a lot.." he murmured looking at the sphere that was still hovering in the air before him.
"H..how do you manipulate it exactly? With your mind? Or something else?" He inquired looking at it thoughtfully..
He gave a nod, "One of my teachers said that an important aspect of magic was 'imagination'." He told Chath, it was Raven who had said that if he remembered correctly. He moved a hand forward to tap a fingertip against the sphere floating in front of Chath and it froze over into a more solid form before he laid his hand against it. It took a moment before it was changed from a sphere into a flower, a trick he'd done before when entertaining some of the children that he babysat.
He looked amazed as he watched Geia change the water into ice and then formed it into a flower.
"Imagination?" he echoed wondering what exactly that meant for him. Did that mean he had no imagination? Was that why it was so difficult? He found it hard to believe as his mind tended to rampantly wander off into day dreams involving Geia. His face flushed again.
"A..ah..well..I will try and ..be more imaginative." he confirmed with a nod of his head.
He gave a smile, "Well that isn't all that is important for magic but I think that is the method I use the most I think." He murmured as he took the flower out of the air and looked it over closely, "Its just... a way of looking at the magic, coming up with things to do with it, different forms for it." It was how he went about things, figuring out a shape for his magic, what he wanted to do with the magic, then attempting it over and over until he was able to figure out how to do it.
He supposed that made the most sense he reached into the pond again and pulled out another sphere. He supposed...if he practiced a LOT this would came naturally to him as well. He found he always fell back to what he was comfortable with. Looking at the sphere he gazed at it.
"Well...a shield is...more flat like..." he mused as he wondered if just by thinking of it being more flat he could will the magic to look like that.
He gave a nod, "It might be a little tough." He murmured, half to himself as he thought that one over. To be able to spread the element over a flat and thinner surface... he found himself wanting to try the spell out, see what he could do with it. At the same time he knew it would be best to wait, he didn't want to attempt any really powerful spells with Chath around for many reasons. One he didn't want to seem as though he were showing off and hurt Chath's desire to use magic and more important some stronger spells left him feeling rather weak, a couple times he'd even collapsed while learning new things. The last thing he wanted was to scare the newt because he pushed himself farther then he should.
Chath frowned at Geia's words. Yeah...staring at the globe wasn't making it change either. He tried to put more thought into it.....the sphere...actually shuddered...and looked like it was trying to squish...but suddenly it just popped into two spheres...smaller ones.
Surprised he tilted his head and then went to cup the other with his bandaged hand to keep it afloat.
"Well that didn't work." He muttered a bit crossly.
"Its alright, it will take a bit for you to get the feel of what your trying to do." He said with a smile, "Try it with one of those sphere? Maybe a smaller target will make it easier for you, less to manipulate then."
Chath looked to the two spheres wondering if he really wanted to try that. Of course...he didn't want to disappoint Geia by being impatient and yet all he wanted to do was slip into the water and clear his head and relax. Instead he tried to focus on the spheres...and when they both just popped he threw his hands up in the air in defeat. Magic was just not meant for him.
"Looks like I loose this round," He commented wryly as he then smirked looking at Geia. "Good think my boyfriend is so good at it. Makes up for my horrid attempt."
Geia's dark eyes went wide when the two sphere that Chath was trying to work with popped on him and then gave him a gentle smile, "I am sure you will get it, just need practice is all." He murmured, then flushed a bit at his comment, "T-Thank you though I am not that good at it, still so much that I have to learn... but hey, maybe we will make a good team someday. You can do the fighting I will do the casting." He suggested.
The idea made him want to work that much harder on learning to make a shield, he would better be able to keep people around him safe that way.
Chath smiled as he then got a look on his face that looked a bit like a smirk as he then leaned forward on his good arm and pecked Ligeia on the nose with a kiss.
"your plenty good for me." He said with a flush on his cheeks.
The owl's cheeks flushed a little before he gave a smile, "Thank you, Chath." He murmured, it meant a lot to him that Chath was so good to him despite all that had happened before between them. His wings gave a fluttered before he returned the little kiss that Chath gave him with a more friendly one. They seemed to be done for the moment with the magic work so... that meant a couple kisses would be alright, since they weren't interrupting anything.
Chath's face flushed as he noticed that his kiss was being returned with a kiss that was...much more...alluring than his has been. But...Geia was he one giving it...so it was okay right? He was still unsure of himself a lot...since all the stuff that had happened between them he didn't want to risk pushing Geia away. So he returned the kisses if..awkwardly.
Geia drew back starring up at Chath for a moment, slightly unsure of himself and of what he'd done before he flushed, "Ahh... so if you want anymore help with Magic... I will be glad to help." He said, looking down at his hands. He wondered if Chath wasn't as comfortable with getting kisses as he was giving them he thought to himself. It was tough with them both being guys, he had no idea who should do what, who could initiate what.
Chath was ...a bit sad as Geia withdrew but he didn't push. He liked getting kisses from him...he was jsut really unsure about himself...and what was appropriate given ..one of their conversations. He was so ...oblivious at times he felt stupid.
"Ah..th..thanks." He replied sitting there a moment wondering if ..he and Keir should go. He could already feel the daggers being thrown at him from
Keir's piercing and unapproved eyes. Angered...he didn't want Keir ruling his life...and thus he laid a hand on Geia's shoulder and drew him in for another kiss.
"Your very much welcome, Chath." He murmured about to rise to his feet when Chath laid a hand on his shoulder, "Hmm?" He was caught off guard by the next kiss and his quickly fluttering wings showed as much. He gave a purring sound in his throat before he returned the kiss. Yes, it seemed Chath preferred giving the kisses... so maybe that meant he should wait for the newt to initiate things between them? It seemed the best bet.

A heart to heart - a journal rp
Chath looked about as if trying to discern why he suddenly wished he was anywhere else right now than outside in the mud where his dragon Keir was lounging in the make shift mud hole/pond he had made larger.
"Keir....you know mom is going to have a fit..just because you keep getting bigger doesn't mean you have to adjust the pond every time too." Chath argued as this had been the heated discussion for most of the day.
The black dragon didn't even bother to raise his head, lolling in the cool mud happily. He was so covered in the stuff it was hard to see the black scales in fact he looked more like a brown if it wasn't for the vicious curve of his horns that betrayed what he really was.
YOUR mother is hardly of my concern... Came the ignorant black's reply Chath was already prepared for this reply as he often had to remind him who tolerated the mess as well kept the hungry black fed.
"She is much your mother as mine," Chath snapped back folding his arms over his chest in an annoyed manner, "She who keeps your fat hide fed..." Chath smirked as he knew he touched a sensitive subject, he'd never known anyone quite as ...proud and vian as this dragon.
Rolling the black snorted his retort in a huff of acidic drool that splattered around and at the newt. Chath avoided the bigger drops quickly wiping the smaller splatters away before any real damage could be done.
I am NOT fat, Came the retort finally when the black managed to calm himself down. He fluttered his wings in agitation his tail lashed in the murky thing one could call a pond.
Chath smiled at his dragons rather affronted expression, if dragons could really have those, he liked to think they did.
"Well just be a bit more curtious...okay? I mean you did turn her little goldfish pond into the monster it is today...and I can hardly call it a beautiful change..." Chath muttered with a shake of his head.
Why...? What's wrong with it? Keir demanded as he looked over his pond with a curious gaze as if he missed the obvious repulsiveness about the murky brown waters.
Chath merely rubbed his temples in frustration,
"Everything?"
The black swiveled his head to peer down at Chath before he shifted in the mire and settled back down into the cool mud.
It's perfect, there is nothing wrong with it. He stated stubbornly refusing to look at Chath as if it was above him.
"Well if you call that perfect than I don't want to hear you grumping every time I meet with Legeia..." Chath proposed the trade as any acceptance of his relationship with the boy in his dragons eyes would be a relief. Keir merly snorted again.
I am not sure why you bother to dally with him, ....even if he appears to be female he isn't. Came the rumble of disapproval. Chath would never understand why his dragon grumbled of the relationship so much aside from it took away from training.
"Yes but I really lo...er....like Geia. He makes me happy," Chath protested not sure why he wasn't sure why he couldn't say the word love.
So? You cannot procreate with a male. It all seems rather pointless...
Chath nearly choked at the word.
"T...that...we're too young to even be thinking about that!" Came the newts rather forced words his face turning a deep shade of red.
Then you shouldn't be with him at all....
Chath struggled to come up with a strong argument without bleeting what he had said before.
"You know you are so against it...I have to wonder if your just jealous..." He finally stated his observation a bit trying to veer the conversation away from his relationship and back to Keir.
The black looked affronted at the sheer idea that he needed to find a mate.
You jest, I do NOT need a mate, He snorted looking away and shifting in the mire a sure signs of becoming uncomfortable with where this conversation was headed. They make you act like a fool all lovey dovey...its sickening. He replied though his tail was lashing even more so in agitation.
"You seem to have gotten along with Vorel..." Chath was cut short by the snarling growl coming from the black's throat.
Don't.....even...suggest it, Came the black's undertone of threat his lips curling back to reveal his rows of rather sharp teeth.
"Well you don't attack him like you do others..." Chath pressed and stood firm as Keir gave him a full forced death glare.
He is too slow to bother... He buffeted the idea of having any remote feelings for the frost dragon firmly. Besides...once again...male. What interest do I have in a male partner?
Chath struggled and the threw up his hands in frustration,
"It really shouldn't matter if your 'partner' is male or female. As long as your happy." He snapped back finding this a tiresome conversation...like talking to a unyielding brick wall.
The only one I have even considered as a mate.....is annoyingly prissy, but at least she fights with gusto...she doesn't hold back... There was something rather...like admiration in his tone as he spoke of this unknown female.
Chath stared at him blankly for a moment before the light bulb went off.
"B...Baroness???" He choked out the name in a sputter. The sheer idea that his dragon had any remote feelings for Ter's wyvern was enough to send his mind reeling. His guess was only confirmed by the blacks silence.
"...But you two fight every time you see each other!" He protested the sheer idea of those two...doing...anything that didn't revolve trying to rip out each others throats was a hard concept to swallow.
Preciously, she has spirit, He finally admitted before he turned his head away and laid down closing his eyes as if to say this conversation was over. Chath merly stood there dumbly before he shook his head and proceeded to head indoors. He wondered what Geia would think....

A serious attitude change.... - journal rp parent
Rubbing her hand down her face she focused to rub her temples with her for fingers. Had she done something to offend the great gods of above? Her garden....her once beautiful garden was now a mud wallow. The murky brown water didn't show any signs of life in it...not even a single tadpole would risk living in there with a black that often frequented it. Her attempts to make it appear...more...livable had failed so far...the duck weed all torn up and rotting in the sun the reeds all flattened and rotting in the water.....the only sign of life flourishing in that cess pool was a film of algae that was threatening to turn the brown surface into a sickly green.
She'd have to talk to Chath about Keir...once again. Not that nagging her son really gave results. She knew he was trying hard to convince the annoyingly stubborn Black dragon to change his ways; and he continued to proceed on his own agenda. She knew...looking and how they got along...it was like watching an old married couple. Bickering about every single subject; one young and inexperienced the other arrogant and with the maddening attitude of a bull in a china shop.
While cleaning indoors; as working in the garden had become a nightmare rather than a pleasant past time; she had overhead their conversation about sexuality preferences and found it rather interesting that Keir was so adamantly straight. One could even say his anger at being interested in the same sex rather humorous. She had to wonder if he felt threatened being paired with another male. Perhaps ...he felt too competitive if it was a male he had to contend with rather than a female. How...machoist of him. She wondered where he developed that sort of attitude and then dropped the thought as who really knew with dragons?
All she knew was she didn't encourage such behavior... though perhaps Zyan rubbed off on the dragon as she was very blatantly straight herself. Not that she had ever seen her daughter put down same sex couples...though she was pretty sure that Zyan found it a weird concept. It made her head hurt thinking on a dragons sexual preference. Why did she care anyway? Keir was Keir...a black dragon with a vicious and unpredictable temper.
Removing her hands from the dishwater as she realized she was rubbing her hands raw with the pot scrubber she dried her hands on a towel and sighed as she looked outside again. They were still at it.....
Tucking a strand of hair behind an ear out of habit she pushed her glasses up the bridge of her nose frowning slightly. Though she was glad that Chath had come out of his bit of depression, she had to wonder if he was perhaps trying too hard. Trying to please Keir and then make time with Geia had been rather taxing on the boy.
She had to be proud though, Chath had matured a lot...considering how he had been a few months prior. She supposed she would just have to trust that he could handle all of life's changes that were thrown at him.

Difference of opinion...(journal rp)
"Come on Keir you know we need to practice..." Came the voice of a nearly whining voice of Chath the newt was looking above while he jogged around the block. THe black was flitting through the air, using wind currents to glide along and circle back when needed as the newt couldn't keep up with his flight speed.
No... Came the rumbling reply as he swung around to circle back as he was getting too far ahead. It seemed strange the black was so against practice especially since he was a slave driver when it came to fighting skills.
"But we need to work on it," Chath shot back and he had to pause in his jog as he was finding it hard to chatch his breath. The disadvantage of being a newt.... he over heat and dried out too fast. Taking his spray bottle that was attatched to his hip he then sprtized himself down.
Why? It is undignified.. Came the blacks retort as he landed a bit awkwardly and heavily on the ground a few feet beside his boy.
"What is? Me riding on you back?"
Precisely that...
"You are lame Keir..."
Not lame I have my pride. Came the snort from the black as he eye'd the immediate surrondings for a quick snack.
"Leave the squirrels alone.."
What ever do you mean? I don't want one of those puny things..
"Leave the dogs alone too." Chath warned as he spotted the dragon eyeing a larger dog that was off leash with its owner. The dragon only grumbeled as he tore his gaze from the animal.
"Why didn't you eat before we left? We have plenty of meat at home for you."
I want fresh today. The black rumbeled as he eye'd the pond a bit futher away. Maybe he could scare up some ducks...
"You know how I feel about you doing that.." Chath moaned as he tried not to picture Keir ripping his sharp teeth into a creature as large as a dog. Squirrels and birds were bad enough.
You can't deny me what I want. I am a dragon I should hunt.
"There is no need for it though!"
Says you....
"Damn straight says me!" The newt was getting annoyed at his dragons attitude on the matter.
The pair locked gazes as if seeing who would drop their gaze first. Chath had learned the hard way that by looking away first meant being submissive to the other dragons and made it that much harder to try and get him to behave.
The quack of a duck caused the black to look away first. He looked up into the air seeing a flock in the air, without even waiting or a pause he leapt from the ground his wings spreading as they beat to give him the leverage he needed to snap at a duck.
He hit his mark, a squack was quickly silenced blood splattering down like rain as the black landed heavily his jaws crunching into his snack eagerly. Bah...feathers but he quickly just swallowed the snack before Chath could tell him to spit it out. The duck was already dead what point was there letting it go?
Chath had spotted the ducks a second too late and even as he outstretched his hand to stop Keir it was ..once again too late. The duck was already dead and consumed. He looked sick and he swallowed raising a hand to his face with a groan.
"You do that on purpose don't you..."
Yes.
"You know I am starting to think I hate you...
Good. THe smile on the dragons slightly bloodied lips was enough to show he was pleased.

This subject again? Just drop it! (journal rp)
'One two three, I don't need you and me, and its eighty degrees...'
Chath was doing cardio to this song, the dragon looking just about ready to eat the boom box spewing out this horrendous excuse for a song.
What drival is that your listening to? The dragon asked sounding more than a bit growly his death glare aimed at the machine instead of the boy who was working out.
"I dunno who is singing it but it's rather catchy,"
'Let's make a team, make him say my name, loving in the extreme...'
Catchy? She sounds like a sex deprived robot...
Chath nearly choked on the water he had just brought to his lips as he then stared at his dragon. A twitch of a smile curled on his lips.
"I dunno about that, I think the singer isn't bad looking... Chath stated with a roll of his shoulders he then instantly regretting mentioning that.
Oh? You are interested in women again? That's a good sign I suppose..
"You KNOW that isn't what I meant," The newt fumed as his black twisted his words around.
Well I was hoping you'd man up and actually be interested in a female..
"What does me liking how the woman look mean that I am not interested in..." He trailed off realizing that this was a futile argument. Ligeia looked very much like a girl...so ...
See? you know it is more natural to be interestd in the females of your species, why can't you be more like your annoying sibling and get yourself a feirce woman? The dragon was spraweled out in his mud hole watching Chath from a distance enjoying the cool mud caking on his hide.
"What?? Look I know your not happy with my relationship with Geia but can't you just drop the subject?" Chath snapped his irritation flaring. The black only chuckeled in response.
Not until you admit I am right...
"Never." Came the steely answer from the boy as he grumped and splashed the rest of his water bottle on his face.
Then the subject is not dropped...
"Well what about your feelings for Baroness?" The newt piped up as he knew this subject was something the black did NOT like discussing.
What feelings? The black draweled as he stretched out wallowing deeper into his fetid pool.
"Don' be stupid Keir...you basically addmitted you liked her," Chath chastied though he got he warning death glare from his partner.
I NEVER stated I liked her... The black replied icely.
"You implied it, don't deny it.." Chath retorted as he watched his dragon become agitated.
I can and will. Now...what does SHE have to DO anything with us disucssnig your mate choice? Groweled Keir.
"A lot...don't you think it would be awkward if I went up to Ter and was like..hey ! Uh guess what? My dragon is in love with yours! Wouldn't that be awkward?" Chath took a step back as his dragon suddenly surged to his feet.
I do NOT love her. Snapped the black dragon his lips curlingup in an aggressive manner. Rolling his eyes Chath nodded his head,
"Fine you don't but lets just pretend you did. Then what? Wouldn't it be strange to have you and her together? I mean...I think she likes Hinder..."
THAT SNIVELING COWARD? She'd never like him! Keir nearly roared in anger giving the new the impression that the dragon really did like Baroness deep down..somewhere in that husk of a heart he had.
He wasn't sure how this would all play out...

Geia Vs...?
(( Done with Orpheus via AIM ))
Ligeia shouldn't worry about what Zyanya had said... really she might just be picking on him against since he was always the butt of the joke that she and Ter made at him. He found himself back in his room after putting her clothing into the laundry and he sat on the edge of his bed debating. Should he be worried? He told himself no but the more thought about it the more he did just that. Not spending time together, no getting to share interests, no talking, it was been the cause of what had happened the last time, "Ah! Not again!" He said, pushing to his feet and started toward the double doors that led out of his room to the smallest of the decks.
Vorel blinked a couple times before he followed after his owl, ~ Ligeia? Where are you going? ~ He asked, wondering what was going on and what he meant by 'not again'.
~ I need to find Chath, its important. ~ He said opening his wings and gave a flap, pushing up so that he could land on the railing that ran around the deck. He looked over at Vorel, ~ Will you come with me? Or will you wait here?~
The Frost chuckled and followed after the owl as though the question were a silly one, both were soon in the air, heading in the direction of Chath's place. Maria would be fine here, not because Ter was here to watch her, but because their father was home just working his best on setting up his at home office. He wasn't worried now about her since she would stay safe which allowed him to freely go in pursuit of something.
Chath and Keir just happened to be out on a marathon you would think judging by the speed both were moving.
~Faster.~ Came the demand from the black who was winging in the air getting better and better with every outing. Chath was on the ground...nearly goddamn sprinting trying to keep up with his dragon.
":YOu...Huff...huff...S...sl..ave...Huff..puff...driver..." Came Chath's annoyed response, soon though the black was lost ahead of him... and Chath nearly collasped on the ground trying to catch his breath. This wasn't the one hundred meter dash..this was torture. He sprayed himself over once ..twice and then again..he took this opportunity to catch his breath and let Keir get ahead. Whatever...that dragon was insane if he thought Chath couldkeep up with him in the first place.
Geia gave a sound of surprised sound as he spotted those the one that he was looking for and he felt his eyes water a bit... he blamed the wind though, it was much faster up here. Lucky, there was a bit of it working on his side after all he thought. He looked over to Vorel, giving a nod before he closed his wings and dove down toward them at a rapid pace. It was something that he had much practice at and was rather good at being what he was.
Vorel watched him as he started to dive down toward the orange spot that was down far belong and things started to make more sense. There were times he wondered what he thought of Chath... he was a good person yes, but he seemed the one abe to most easily cut his owl down with just his mere presence or lack of it. At times it worried Vorel and made him want to keep Geia to himself but he wasn't so cold, he loved his owl and his owl loved Chath... he figured that must mean he should love him as well, yes? The frost closed his wings to dive down after the owl.
kirrachan (12:38:14 AM): The black dragon spotted the decending owl as soon as he started to spiral down towards his boy. Growling he flapped his wings moving as quickly as possible to stop the owl's decent.
~Your not wanted here!~ He snapped in draconic knowing that the owl could understand him perfectly. Lips curling back showing off his aggression, how dare he just...swoop down and interfere. HOW DARE HE. His dislike for the pair being together grew with each passing day.
Chath looked up when he heard but couldn't make out what his dragon was saying. Hey...that was Vorel. He could tell cause tehre was no dragon quite like the Frost...that meant Geia was around. He perked up the idea of seeing the owl sounding delightful, though he was frowning...just what was Keir doing?
Geia was forced to pull up more quickly then planned, wings spreading wide to slow him down so that he didn't crash into the Black Dragon which would have ended up more painful for him then Keir that was for certain. Was the Black looking bigger now then the last time he had seen him or was it due to the attitude that he was currently sporting. Geia gave a flap of his wings as he looked Keir over closely, unable to see Chath now due to the angle and the dragon being within line of sight. He blinked as the words sunk in, ~ What... what do you mean? ~ He asked, trying not to sound worried. Was that just Keir talking... or was that Chath's feelings as well?
Vorel had missed what was said, missed the aggression as he was moving to quickly and continued his dive downward to land nearby to where Chath was before he lifted his gaze to the sky, looking a bit uncertain when his boy didn't come down immediently. What was he doing up there with Keir? The Frost tilted his head to oneside before he shifted in place, wings opening wide as he prepared to take off again.
Chath nearly jumped out of his skin when Vorel came to land beside him. The ground rocked under neath his feet and he had to splay his hands out to catch his balance.
"Hey Vorel..." He greeted with a sheepish smile before his worry overtook him again. He looked up trying to see Geia but Keir was in the way.
Growling his large wings beat in the air to keep him aloft. His tail twitched in the air his agitation betrayed, ~I told you boy, I don't want you here. Leave. Now. Stop interfering.~ He snarled lowering his head acidic drool pooling at the corners of his mouth.
Vorel turned for a moment, distracted as he was spoken to. He tilted his head over at Chath before he followed his gaze back up to the sky once more.
Ligeia blinked a couple of times as he starred at the Black Dragon and he felt... a strange sensation, something he didn't often feel and he was pretty sure it was anger. What was it with everyone today? Zyanya baiting and taunting him and now Keir wanting for him to leave... he only wanted to see Chath, was that so bad? He gave a shake of his head, ~ I came to talk to Chath, Keir... I am not trying to interfear with whatever it is that your doing today I just... wanted to see him. ~ He said, forcing back the anger that he was feeling.
Keir snorted moving aside as if to allow Geia to proceed before moving back again.
~There...you saw him. Now go.~ He groweled, ~You are such a pest...a constant distraction...~ He muttered mostly to himself as he briefly looked down judging that the frost was a bit too tense for his likeing. He never wanted to attack the frost before...not that it would stop him if the big idiot decided to try and fight for his boys Honor.
Chath didn't like where this was going.
"s**t...Keir...seriously...this is going too far..." He grumbeled looking up to Vorel chewing on his lower lip a bit, "Hey Vorel...mind giving me a lift?"
Geia's hands clentched at his sides as he was allowed, for a moment and that was all, to see the newt. He blinked and then found himself shaking his head, ~ I am not leaving, Keir. Will you try to make me if I refuse? ~ He asked, finding the idea maddening. What was this one's problem with him? Was Keir's thinking like that of Z? Was he far to girly? Or maybe it was becase he was enought of a girl that Keir didn't like him? Maybe he didn't want to share? Was this all due to jealousy? His wings started to flap a bit harder to keep him aloft as they were shaking a bit, more anger and less fear despite who he was talking too.
Vorel glanced over at Chath for a moment before giving a bit of a nod, lowering himself down so that the newt could climb onto his back so that they could go back up and see what was going on.
Chath was quick to spray himself down again and then climb onto the frost. He...was a bigger than Keir. That was the major difference. As well his scales were a lot different. But he didn't care as he latched on and nodded his head.
"Ready."
Keir have a jerk of his head indicating a nod.
~Yes. My boy won't like it...but force my claw and I will...~ The growling sound cotinued deep in his throat. He wasn't pleased...not in the least.
Ligeia gave a flap of his wings then, lifting himself up higher into the air as he thought on it, thinking, and then he shook his head, ~ Fine then, stop me you arrogant p***k! I am sick of you and sick of Z and sick of everyone else that finds sport in mocking me! ~ He snapped before he caught he closed his wings once more and went diving down passed the Black. It was foolish... an suicidal, he didn't want to fight another Black the last time he'd done so he'd ended up with a broken arm and wing. Stress seemed finally to get the best of him, to many things stacking up for far to long... and Keir trying to take away Chath seemed to be the final straw.
Vorel looked up as he took off into the air and his eyes went wide as the owl was once more diving down toward them, ~ Ligeia...?~
The black had turned to watch as the owl made a suicide drop towards the ground. Idiot. Would serve him right to end up a bloody pulp on the ground.
Chath on the other hand, his eyes went wide with shock and fear.
"Geia!" He nearly screamed, "Pull up! PULL UP!" He tried to judge the speed he was going...where he was aiming...god he couldn't get to him...
"KEIR STOP HIM!" He asked...no commanded as he scrambeled off of Vorel to try and make a stupid attempt to break the owls fall.
The black started to move and then stopped himself. What...? Chath had given him an order. The sheer thought was a bit boggling but he felt compelled to do as asked as he then moved in a dive after the owl. Of course his hesitation would cost him precious seconds.

An Owl's Worries
(( Done with Orpheus via AIM ))
Geia opened his eyes and wings as he went down and he gave a sound of relief as he saw Chath, it was a strange sort of déjà vu moment. The first time they had really met Chath had tried to catch him when he was playing around with Vorel jumping off the roof of D-Corp. It only pained him more and he lifted his wings up to catch another updraft to slow himself in his decent. He hadn't thought to far ahead in his plan passed moving passed the Black Dragon and he realized that Keir was following him, something that caused his heart to race rapidly in his chest. His landing wasn't as smooth as normal, something he blamed on his roiling emotions, and as he touched down he took a couple rushing steps before he tripped up and then fell toward the ground with a squeak.
Vorel seemed confused as to what exactly was going on, he'd missed something... what the pair were saying while they were up in the air and it irked the Frost greatly to think that Keir, who he'd thought was a friend, had been being mean to his owl... that couldn't be the case, surely? But the proof was there... just look at the concern that Chath had shown when the two had stayed in the air overly long. He gave a shake of his head before trotting forward in a rush to put his bulk between Ligeia and Keir and seemed to puff himself up to looking as big as was possible before turning his gaze on the Black.
If the black had had any intentions of actually hurting the Geia it was hard to tell as he brought his wings out to stop his decent. He landed a few meters away bringing his wings in rearing his head up in a defiant manner. He made no attempts on Geia though the glower he gave the owl was probably enough cause some doubt in that.
Chath was at Geia's side instantly he went to help Geia back up, his hands moving around to make sure nothing was broken. After his first aid class at least he knew what to look for now. He then wrapped his arms around Geia tightly despite the fact every cell on his body protested in pain.
"Don't ever do that again." He whispered in the Owls ear as he continued to hold him reluctant to let him go.
There was silence from the Frost as he sat down on his haunches to watch Keir in an unblinking manner. Keir was... one he would mark as a friend, one of few aside from Ligeia and now that feeling was disolving. Keir, he was a danger he found himself thinking on the big black dragoness Aullol as another example of their kind, of that little black that had egged her on that day... and it seemed to only cause his hackles to rise a little, that entire family was dangerous, wasn't it? He'd been blind not to see that Keir was the same but felt as though his eyes were forced open and he didn't like it.
Ligeia blinked in surprise as he found himself wrapped up in Chath's arms, he sat there dazed for a moment before he started to shake all over and lifted his arms up to wrap them around the newt, leaning against him, forgetting for a moment that without the water to help such things were a bother to him, "I'm sorry, Chath... I... just... needed to see you..." He murmured, he squeezed his eyes close to hide them and the emotions hidden in them as it was a whole, confusing mix of them, "I don't mean to... to interfere and get in you way..."
Chath went to stroke Geia's hair as he felt the boy shivering and shaking in his arms. He kissed Geia's forehead lightly and continued to hold him despite that face his body really wasn't enjoying it.
"Shhhhs..." He murmured feeling really awkward, what exactly had Keir said to him to make him so upset?
"Your never in my way..." he reassured after a moment trying to figure out how else to comfort the boy. "I'm glad to see you too...but don't do that again...you nearly gave me a heart attack.." He continued feeling his beating heart finally starting to settle back down. He was ...too warm. The dizzying sensation was starting to overwhelm him, but he continued to hold Geia...he felt as if he needed to..
Keir didn't take note or if he did didn't show that Vorel's opinion of him had changed. As far as he was concerned he had nothing against Vorel. Geia was a nuisance. His tail flicked back and forth in annoyance watching them continue to hug.
Ligeia let his eyes slowly open so that he could stare up at Chath for a moment before he flushed, "I... seem to do that often, I'm sorry." He murmured again, he was always upsetting Chath, seemingly always needing saved. Was it because he was weak that Keir thought so badly of him? Was that why he didn't want him around? He didn't want to be a bother and surely didn't want to be a damsel in distress sort. He felt a little better now that he had obtained his own, felt... good and warm, forgetting for a moment that he had been poking at a Black and out right challenging him, stupid idea at best he thought.
His mind seem to suddenly cue into something, that he was wrapped in Chath's arms and warm, he blinked a couple times as he realized that he was also wrapped up in his arms in a hug. Ahh... wait... he lifting a hand up from his back, murmuring something quietly to himself, hand making a motion, drawing forth some water from the air. He didn't want to over heat the newt he thought, not again... he'd done that once already. It took a little longer then he would have liked given his currently state but a moment later it started to sprinkle though it would become quickly obvious that it was only in a contained area.
Chath felt relief flood him as sprinkles of cool water landed on his skin. He felt his body relax a bit, though he was feeling sleepy from being so warm the dizziness was passing at least.
"Thanks ," He hated he couldn't hold his boyfriend like a normal person...give him hugs and generally other things he needed due to his sensitive skin.
"Good thing I have a strong heart huh?" He chuckled, "I learned that newts can regenerate pieces of their heart...but..lets hope it never comes to test that out ok?" He chuckled trying to lighten the mood.
"What's wrong Geia? You seem.." He trailed off looking for the right word, "distraught...what did Keir say to you?" He inquired as he shot his black a glare. The dragon only snorted and then opening his wings took flight he didn't need to be around for this.
Ligeia drew back some from Chath, to allow him his space as he didn't want to hurt him by hugging him to hard. He looked up at him for a moment before dropping his gaze, "I... its not just Keir." He murmured, not wanting for all of the blame to fall upon the Black even though the dragon hated him. He looked down at his gloved hands for a long moment, flexing them, "I... what do I need to do, Chath? I don't think I am really worthy of you... and I worry about it. Z... Z came over today to hang out with Ter in his room. I don't think we have ever done anything like that... and I don't want to lose you again but I worry that maybe I am not who and what you want or whats good for you... because I am weak and girly." It was all said in a jumbled, breathless rush.
It felt like a anvil landed on his head, and by the rather dazed expression on his face he shook his head slightly to clear it. He was too warm he put a hand to his head as if it hurt...and in a sense it did. What was Geia going on about? True they had broken up ...before because the didn't see enough of each other but they were both so busy.
"Wait what?" he tried to figure out what Geia was saying and what he wanted.
"Y...you want us to hang out like....Ter and Zyanya do? do...you know what they do alone together?" He inquired his face going bright red. He then tried to figure out the rest, "Wait a minute...your not..weak...and..well..yeah i guess your girly.." he rubbed the back of his neck...being a blatant lie if he had said Geia looked like a boy. Since well the first time they had met...he had thought he was a she.
"There is..nothing wrong with how you look, it doesn't bother me that you dress like a girl.." He continued honestly. "Whats really bothering you Geia? You've never ...been so unsure about yourself before.."
The owl looked up at Chath for a long moment before glancing away, "I... know what they do and... is that a bad thing? I mean I guess it is since touching hurts, is that why you don't want to just hang out? I promise that I can keep my hands to myself." There were times when he didn't want to but he had self control for the most part, today just seemed not to be his day for keeping his emotions in check. He pushed himself up to his feet, allowing the spell to fizzle away as it was a bit of a drain to have it going constantly.
"I... this is how I am, really. I seem to think on stuff to much even small comments which was probably just her taunting me to feel better about wearing a dress but when she said we didn't even seem like a couple..." He trailed off and seemed to be shifting in place in an uncomfortable manner. He was acting silly wasn't he? One comment and he'd gone racing out of the house, battling black dragons, and making suicidal dives because he was panicked over losing Chath? It made absolutely no sense why would he...
Geia's dark eyes went wide all of a sudden, "O-Oh..." He breathed, sounding a bit surprised as though something had clicked.
Watching Geia a bit nervously he went to join him in standing staggering a bit though managing to catch himself his hand already on his spray bottle as he pulled it out and sprayed himself in the face. After a moment or two the feeling passed and he felt better his face..was still reddened though by Geia's earlier comment.
"Well...no..but...I thought you said..you wanted to wait...to..do that.." He fidgeted on the spot feeling panic creep like ice in his veins. Of course the stories he heard from his sister were widely exaggerated.
"Zyan is a lot like Keir... " He started realizing just how stubborn the pair were...
"Take her words as a gain of salt..as they say. IF your happy with how you look and how you are then I am too..." He continued with a nod of his head before he tilted his head wondering why Geia had that expression on his face.
"You okay?"
Geia looked up at him, "I didn't say 'Chath take me now' but... I... did like your kisses when we went swimming and... and you seemed more at ease then as well. We have a pool at our house now... If you ever wanted to come over to hang out you could swim there, as much as you want. I know I swim like a rock but I would try again."
He relaxed a bit as he explained about his sister and Keir being alike in their thinking before nodding, that was true enough. Both of them were so strong and in a way he envied that, he was to weak, to delicate and he had only his magic to make him seem stronger but even that he'd never really shown anyone the extent of as there had yet to be a reason to do so.
The owl chewed on his lower lip as he looked off to the side and his face colored, "Yeah, it just... it all suddenly seemed to make sense to me. All the panic I felt by her words, wanting to see you, even going as far as to so foolish tell Keir off to get to see you." He murmured, sounding a little on the breathless side as he spoke.
Chath's face reddened despite himself at the description that Geia gave even as brief as it was, he looked away afraid Geia would notice his uneasiness on the subject of being intimate. Of course he was interested...but...there were so many things about himself that made it seem impossible to get close. At the mentioning of the pool though he nodded his head, "Yeah sure...if you don't mind getting wet...I'll make sure you don't drown." He agreed remembering the kissing they had tried whenever water was involved. He then gave Geia a astounded look.
"You...did what? You t...told Keir off?" Chath's surprise was borderline amusement. No wonder the dragon had been so pissed off.
"I'll talk to him later...we've been...having some disagreements about things lately..so this isn't anything new.." He stated with a sigh before he tilted his head to look at Geia again.
"Don't really follow you...what makes sense?"
The owl shifted back and forth on his feet before he looked at Chath, his cheeks a deep red now and he couldn't help a sort of shy smile, "I... ahh... Chath I... love you." He murmured, looking as though for once he might be the one to over heat as his wings opened opened up and set to quickly flapping as he tried desperately to cool himself off. It was the reason he felt so mixed up about the next, why he worried so much, why the need to see him and make sure things were alright had taken hold of and driven him to do things that were rather dangerous as well as foolish. What a powerful and intimidating sort of emotion.
Chath stared at him blankly absorbing the information a moment or two before his own face darkened he then broke into his friendly goofy smile.
"You silly I already knew that." He replied as if some part of him deep down had known it. Perhaps not acknowledge it but he always kinda knew. And in his own heart he knew he loved Geia back.
"I....know I have tried telling you in the past...and I feel a bit foolish now to be the second to say it but...I love you too Geia."
The owl seemed more then a little delighted by the newt boy's words and he gave a happy sort of bird like sound in his throat as the admission of love was returned to him, "W-Wow... I feel so much better saying that." Not to mention being able to finally put a word to what he had been feeling. He took a step closer, pushing up on his tip toes, and carefully leaned up to brush his lips over those over Chath.
Chath was about to reply when suddenly he was being kissed. The..height difference was a bit of a drag but he didn't care...swallowing he returned the kiss gently. It often made him wonder how they came to be...as a couple they could be no more different. Geia was from the sky and he the water...in nature the owl would probably eat the newt...
There was a happy sort of sigh that escaped Ligeia's throat and he quickly clasped his hands behind his back so that they could continue to kiss and he could keep his hands from clinging to him as he felt the urge to do. He had to be careful with Chat and he would be sure to do just that, he didn't want to hurt his new after after all. It felt nice to be able to do that again, it felt like to long since they had last kissed... and he decided that he rather liked Chath's kisses.

A Man to Man Talk: Part One
(( Done with Orpheus via AIM ))
There was the acidic burning smell too close for comfort as Chath had dived for the ground and rolled to avoid Keir's attack. He was getting better, faster, at least when it came to predicting his own dragons actions. The black was in the sky getting use to aerial attacks and Chath found it rather more like a game of survivor who kept narrowly not being voted off the island.
He didn't mind, this sort of activity kept his mind off of the current. Just thinking of why he had called the cobra up and requested to meet with him made his face grow red.
~FOCUS!~ Came a roaring voice as acid nearly got him on his nearly regenerated arm. The limb still felt weird...like he was still getting use to having the use of it again. Course the skin was all..pale and new...it looked alien. He didn't like it, but was happy to have the use of two hands again. Diving forward again he tried to summon a water globe and didn't have the time to focus the energy around it before he was moving again. ******** really was on edge today...
Ter was lounging on the back of his wyvern, his coils threaded through her spines, and they were way up in the air as they headed for the park. It was strange to have answered the phone and find it to be that newt, stranger still that he didn't want to talk to Ligeia instead he wanted to talk with Ter. The cobra was pretty well certain that the newt was likely to be calling him out over the fact that they didn't exactly get along, "Your in charge of dealing with the Black if Chath really is wanting to start s**t with me, alright?"
There was a chuckling sound from the Wyvern, one that sounded rather pleased over the assignment given to her, and she almost hoped that it was a battle they were heading toward. She tilted her head to look down toward the ground and her maw spread into a dangerous, sharp toothed smiled, "Hold on." She said in her guttural English before she was diving down in her favorite manner of attack toward the Black that was flapping around in the air, curious if she could catch him off guard and couldn't resist trying to do just that.
The black was still lacing his way through the air loving being airborne the sheer fact he was a smaller dragon meant he had the agility and speed he loved. It ...still irked him being smaller...smaller than Baroness and Hinder.. but he made up for it by being 4 times more aggressive than need be. He breathed another mouth full of acid down towards the newt who was his companion.
Chath wondered why the black enjoyed doing these exercises...he had a feeling it was a way for him to test Chath and make sure he was still worthy of him...they had an uneasy relationship...that was for sure. He dodged the recent amount of Acid as it rained down upon him and then nearly balked as he saw a large form diving towards Keir. It was Baroness...was she insane? Was Ter insane letting her do that? If she managed a hit on Keir the black would probably lose it.
He gestured wildly to his dragon who thankfully looked behind himself to see the diving Baroness coming towards him. Of course..rather than move out of the way he roared a challenged and seemed to be waiting for her.
Baroness roared back, teeth barred as she tilted her wings at the last moment to pull back slightly to do a whirling circle around him, taking a n** at his tail before shed moved to land. Her feet were barely on the ground and Ter abandoned his perched on her back so that she could push off again, letting her go back up to the one that she seemed to be far to interested in. If he didn't know better he might almost thing that the Wyvern liked him... but given her foul temper and desire to best him, and every other dragon around her, he doubted that was the case.
Ter turned to look over at Chath then gave a smirk, "Long time no see, Newt. Calling me out?" He asked, his coils shifting and drawing in so that he could lean against them.
Chath looked horrendously distracted as his relief to see Baroness landing to only lift off again meant she was going to meet with him.
Keir didn't like that she had backed off to drop off her ward before coming back to him. He darted forward playing chicken to the last second and pulling out before ramming her to then snap his teeth at her spikes and actually using her like a spring board and using his paws to push off of her before turning again to snap at her.
"....D..o.. you think ...we should stop them?" Chath asked looking rather worried. He then seemed to register what Ter had spoken and looked at him with a raised eyebrow.
"Calling you out?.....Why?" He inquired.
Baroness gave a growling sound, tail lashing and tailing a swing at him. She wasn't trying to stick him, not wanting to cause a poisoning so long as he kept that acid of his to himself, instead she was just trying to smack him with her tail instead, chasing after him, snapping and kicking out at him where she could, trying to force him out of the air. The battle was something that she found to be far, far to enjoyable, to amusing. This was the best part about running into this particular dragon, the battles that always came from it. Only this time there would be no stupid techs to ruin their fun.
Ter looked up at the pair then shrugged, "Eh, they seem to be having fun, no reason to ruin it." He said, his eyes going back to Chath, "As for that... I was trying to think of a reason you would call ME of all people instead of calling my brother."
The black snapped and snarled though for some reason having noticed that Baroness was keeping her poison to herself he found himself not resorting to acid like he normally did. More like claws and headbutts. He did have curled horns...made for good rams.
Chath wasn't so positive about it all...but he nodded dumbly before looking back to Ter.
"Ah..." His face reddened, " Well...I wasn't sure who else to ask...So..." He seemed to swallow looking nervous all of a sudden.
The wyvern opened her wings up to catch an up draft, moving up higher into the air so that she could get up high enough to once more dive down at the Black Dragon. She didn't have an aggressive look on her face which was interesting given what she was doing, instead someone that knew her would understand that this was something she was enjoying. No reason to interferer when the pair were having fun in their own, violent manner.
Ter lifted an eyebrow as the other tried to explain it to him and he cocked his head to one side, "Who else to ask... about...?" He prodded, curious about what was going on in Chath's mind if he were bringing him here to ask him something that he had nobody else to ask it of. It had him rather curious.
Keir wasn't stupid...he spread his own wings to follow Baroness int he updraft. He wasn't going to be caught in that dive again. He gave a rumbling sound deep in his throat though it didn't sound menacing more so that it sounded like a call.
"Well...you know...stuff..." He managed to get out as he ran a hand through his yellow hair. He flickered the other a glance hoping he understood his face was getting steadily a deeper and deeper shade of red.
Baroness seemed pleased that Keir was following her instead of waiting for her, he was far more amusing to fight it out with now that he could take to the air as well. The more skills the two of them gain the more she wanted to test them out, it was this dragon she thought of when she pushed herself to get stronger, faster, more dangerous. Her battles with Keir helped her to hone all the skills she obtained, and in turn helped her to figure out where she was lacking and what she had to practice more. She gave a low, rumbling sound in her throat as he gave chase, seeming to urge him on in his pursuit.
Ter slouched against his coils, "That I do... though you might be more specific on what stuff I know that you want to know about." He told Chath, he was sure he could guess at this point but he couldn't help it that he wanted to screw with him just a little. It was just how the cobra was.

The Hell...?!
(( Done with Orpheus via AIM ))
He had gotten a lot better at flying since he had taken to the sky more often than not now a days when it came to exercise and training. With a quick beats of his wings he was slowly catching up to the larger dragon rumbling in reply to her own sounds.
Chath looked to Ter looking more and more embarrassed by the second, "Yes..but...I need advice...talking to Z is just too embarrassing..and I am sure she'd make comments, " Chath started though he was pretty sure Ter was going to make comments too...but at least he coul punch Ter is need be. "Well...h..how far have you guys gone? I mean.. Zyan tells me things on the off side but...given all the stuff I find in her room...I am not sure...."
Once she was up in the air Baroness once more used a diving maneuver, having far to much fun with this game. That Keir was playing along only seemed to make it that much better! She gave a growly sound followed by a purr as she passed by him on her way down, giving him a dragon's version of a grin as she went. If one was really watching it appeared almost as though the wyvern was... flirting with the Black?
Ter couldn't help but to chuckle, "Ahhh, I see... having troubles, huh? Is it you or him?" He asked, not wanting details but he would admt that he was morbidly curious, "How far? Pervert." He said in a teasing manner before grinning, "A lot of making out and fooling around if you really need to know."
Keir was in no danger of being hit but he moved to smack his tail against her rump as she passed by, though he'd deny it later he was...certainly responding to Baroness's flirting. He gave chase something inside of him driving him to capture her and maker her his.
Chath couldn't help but give a sigh in relief. So they hadn't actually had sex...thank goodness. But he felt his face darken more anyway at the questions.
"I...it's me..." He admitted finally as he started to pace, " I...I..every time I think about us..you know doing things...I overheat...and then..pass out...my skin is so sensitive that hugging and touching can get very painful...I...I...just don't know what to do..."
Baroness gave a little grunt as she got 'smacked' and she started to circle around down to land on the ground and crouched down, tail lashing behind her as she waited for Keir to land looking as though she were planning on pouncing on him.
Ter tilted his head to the side as the newt sighed and found himself wondering what in the world he was relieved over. What a strange guy, "You picked a rather bad boyfriend you know... you should have looked for someone more hands off." He told him, giving a little roll of his yellow eyes. That someone that couldn't abide by touching was dating Geia of all people, "Its almost funny if you think about it... well probably not funny to you. So what are you planning on doing? Staying a virgin your whole life?"
Keir circled above but didn't seem to have any plans on landing..instead he looked like he was going to dive towards her. His own version of pouncing to tackle her and wrestle her to the ground.
Chath stared at Ter his face going more red as he used a hand to slightly cover his flushed cheeks.
"..I know I know that...I feel so terrible I can't...well...do things he wants to do..." He replied sounding very frustrated,"W...what? Virgin?" he stuttered a bit looking at Ter before he looked away.
"I....don't know..how to ..you know...without passing out..."
Baroness seemed a little surprised as the Black dragon used a dive bomb tackle against her, finding it amusing to have one of her favorite moves used against her. She gave a hissing sound, not an angry one but an amused one as she lunged forward to meet him in his pounce and the two of them went into a rolling heap of legs, tails, and wings.
Ter did his best to keep from laughing, "Wow... and I thought I had it rough with Z being into... well being rough. I feel a lot better after talking with you, Chath." He told him, feeling so much better. It was far easier to just get chewed on then worry about not being able to get any due to the risk of passing out, "I don't know what to tell ya, Chath... hrm... do it where there's an air conditioner? Or in the shower?" He suggested some random things, just guesses, "Though I guess that wouldn't help much if you can't touch... huh..."
The impact of them colliding was heavy like a thunder crack and without realizing it he was forcing Baroness to be underneath him and he had to be on top. His teeth went to grab at the soft folds of skin under her throat though a firm bite it wasn't puncturing the skin it was more a holding move.
Chath sighed and then grabbed his water bottle and went to spray himself over. It didn't help much but he felt a bit better.
"I...I don't know...I mean I am better if I am submerged in water...but Geia is an owl...not really a good place...for him to be in...besides he can't swim very well..." He recalled when he had to rescue him with his heavy feathers. "We really arn't a good match are we...." he sighed as he tried to think of something else they could try.
"Zyan never mentioned being rough...she ...what does she do?"
Baroness continued the battle with him, pushing against him, thrashing, and fighting, she wasn't a weakling and wasn't going to allow herself to end up bested by a male unless it was through a show of power and strength. It was why she had more interest in Keir who fought with her tooth and claw as opposed to Hinder who was far to submissive for her liking. As Keir caught hold of her neck she gave another hiss, tail thumping against the ground, wings flapping best they could given her position.
Ter tilted his head to the side then couldn't help but to chuckle, "Ahh... hahaha... you know that makes it so much more sense now." He murmured to Chath, doing his best to keep from laughing but it was amusing, now at least he knew why the owl was often seen flailing around like a drowned rat in the pool they had out back, "Well the way I see it you need to work your a** off to figure it off given how often I see Geia trying to drown himself for you."
Ter lifted a scaly hand up to his neck, rubbing at it, "Your sister is a biter if you must know." He said, this was the strangest conversation ever given that any information shared was made odd due to the fact that they were dating each other's siblings.
Keir rumbled, though it wasn't really a growl...it was a different sort of sound, something..about it seemed demanding wanting and he used his claws to push Baroness away after releasing his hold on her throat before he turned his body and slammed his tail into her side. He had the advantage of being on all four feet...whilst Baroness only had the two and her arm wings. He was careful of her spikes, though he quickly returned to biting her wherever he could.
Chath looked to Ter surprised and then felt horrible. Here he had been worrying about and agonizing about the fact he couldn't do these things with Geia and...Geia was making the effort to try. What had he done?
"....Yeah...I just don't know where to start. ..I mean I am pretty use to how sensitive my skin is...being submersed helps a lot to dampen the pain..but i hate making Geia have to go into the water...I guess....I've had ideas about using magic to help...but i am terrible at it..." He trailed off as Ter mentioned his sister was a biter. At the mentioning of biting he noticed what Keir and Baroness were doing.
"Um.....does she bite like him?" He inquired with a blank expression and pointing to their dragons.
Baroness gave a grunting sound as the tail hit her in the side, getting the breath knocked out of her a bit and she collapsed for a moment to gulped for a breath before she turned her head around and took a bite at him, catching hold of of one of his horns and gave it a bit of a yank. It wasn't a violent or jarring motion though, just her tugging at him in a teasing sort of manner. It almost seemed as if she were egging him on in what he was doing.
Ter shrugged, "Well I can't say I am any good at magic myself, I can use it to help lift things but that's it. I will leave that hocus pocus crap to people like Geia who get it." He didn't really care about magic to much, he took the classes, paid attention, and passed and that was all that mattered to him.
He turned to follow the direction in which Chath was pointing before he smacked a hand against his forehead, "Yeah... pretty well similar to those two, yes." He muttered, wondering where in the Hell this had come from. Didn't those two want to kill each other?
Keir released his hold on Baroness and tried to rear his head back as she caught hold of his horn. He yanked back glad to be free before giving a shake of his head and then maneuvering around so he was behind the large Wyvern. A rumbling sound in his throat as he went to latch onto her shoulder with his teeth as if to hold her in place.
Chath's eyes went wide as he saw what Keir was about to do.
"S...should we stop them??" He inquired after a moment looking a bit ...stunned. He..had a hunch that Keir had liked Baroness despite all his grumblings and denials about it.
Baroness gave a sound a bit like a laugh as Keir was able to pull his horn free from the grasp of her sharp teeth then purred at him, not seeming to be fighting nearly as much now. Instead seemed almost pleased by the strength of the Black Dragon. Yes, he was the best of all those that she'd met out there, impressive, strong, and aggressive in a manner that was to her attractive. Not that she would admit it to anyone mind you...
Ter watched for a moment before giving a snort, "Sure thing, you can go and stop the two most violent dragons in D-Corp if you like since your the one with the ability to regrow body parts. I will stay back here and call you an ambulance, sound good?" He said, finding the idea that Chath was actually daring enough to attempt to stop a couple of dragons from fooling around to be amusing. He had a pair, that much was certain.
Chath looked to Ter with narrowing eyes, "What? We should just let them do as they please? What if? What does this mean for us? I thought dragons paired up with their kids dragons mates or something..." He stuttered with a bit of annoyance in his words...of course saying that meant that Keir had been expected to be with Vorel. Good point...
"Never mind. Ah..." he watched Keir and Baroness his face flushing as he looked away.
Keir took her somewhat less...aggressive stance as the go ahead and after positioning himself so that he wouldn't get spiked began to go ahead and do what both their children seemed unable to go ahead and do with their own mates.
"It means nothing more then that they are doing better then we are, seems a bit of a blow to the ego, eh?" He couldn't help but to chuckle. He looked over at Chath who was looking away before watching for a moment, "Gotta hand it to Keir, hes doing pretty well in not getting himself speared." He said perversely.
Chath rubbed his temples wondering what else could possible happen today,"...Is it bad I am somewhat envious of him..." he muttered darkly before he sigh, "I guess we need to let D-corp know?" He asked looking to Ter with questioning gaze.
"I will admit I kind of am too. Maybe we should take notes?" He said, giving Chath a nudge before tilting his head to the side, "Oh man... really? Ahahahhaa... Hey, Mr Coleman, thought you should know as the dragon teacher that our dragons went from wrestling about with each other to 'wrestling' about with each... that's hilarious." He couldn't help it as he started to laugh, hard.
Chath couldn't really get past what Keir and Baroness were doing...he couldn't watch that was for sure as he felt himself getting rather jealous...Keir can go and do what he pleases ...and yet he was struggling to just have a relationship work...it really wasn't fair.
"........Well I think we should let SOMEONE know..."
Ter did his best to get his giggles under control, having to wipe tears of mirth from his eyes, "I suppose so, when do we want to do that?" He asked, he sure as hell wasn't going to do it on his own so Chath was going to come with him. Best that they make a date... so to speak.
HE rubbed his temples again trying NOT to sigh.
"Probably sooner rather than later....I mean..." He stopped when Keir gave a bellowing roar of sorts as he finished, the poor newt hoped they didn't traumatize too many people in the park.
"Yeah, I suppose so... anytime your ready I suppose we can go and see where we are supposed to report something like that. It would likely be Coleman since he's the dragon teacher, you think? I am somehow sure he will be... happy to see the two of us again at the same time again." After that battle class he was certain that Peri wanted them and their dragons to have restraining orders from one another. He supposed given the results maybe it was a bad idea to encourage Baroness to jump on Keir... oh well, live and learn he supposed.
Chath nodded noting that Keir had released Baroness and had moved to lay in the grass. Not right against her but beside her, his tail lashing in a pleased for of manner his eyes half closed.
"......I wonder what Keir thinks of all this..." He muttered before shaking his head. He wasn't sure what he was going to tell Geia...
"And yeah...soon ...we should do it in the next couple of days at least..."
Baroness, oddly enough, seemed just as pleased as she lifted her head to n** at Keir in a manner that was friendly before gladly settling down next with the Black. She wasn't often so sedate and content but at the moment she was just that and happy to lay next to Keir. Her tail was even swishing behind her a bit.
Ter nodded, "Well, I will see about calling the guy and we can head up there when I can arrange for it." He said, he wouldn't tell the teacher over the phone mind you, he could wait until the all got their before revealing such strange information.
Keir wouldn't admit it but he was pleased to have Baroness come and lay beside him. He reared his head high in a dominate this is mine sort of fashion.
Chath only stared a bit more before looking to Ter and recovering from his stupor.
"yeah...if you could... let me know whats up.."

Wrapping Up
(( Done with Orpheus Via AIM ))
Ter nodded before shifting his coils so he could lounge on them, "Doesn't seem like we are going anywhere soon though... our rides look like they are going to laze about for a bit." He said, letting his eyes close. Damn but this sucked... even his grouchy wyvern could get some and he couldn't? He was jealous he'd admit and was starting to think that perhaps he should just grow to like being chewed on in the name of getting some.
Chath looked to Ter noticing his rather souring mood.
"Hey...what's up? Are things okay between you and Z?" he inquired as he had taken to calling her by her nickname since she often punched him if he didn't.
Ter opened one eye to look at Chath, "Yeah, as far as I know things are fine... why?" Wait a second, what in the world was going on that would make him think things weren't alright? Did Z tell him that? No... he couldn't quite see her going and dumping off her problems on the newt any sooner then he'd do that to Geia.
Chath shifted a bit settling to sit himself as well...the dragons weren't ready just yet to leave.
"Well..I dunno I mean is it normal for a girl to have...so..many 'toys'?" he stressed the word toys to allude to the fact that it wasn't your regular toys.
"I mean...I can't even go into her room...it just makes me feel...inferior.."
Ter glanced over at him, finding his curiosity get piqued a bit about what he was talking about. He could guess given what he was stressing and a part of him found the mental image rather... hot. He shook his head to clear it and then gave a laugh, "Why? The only time you need to feel inferior about any toys laying about would be if Geia got one." He told the newt in a 'helpful' manner though it was really just to screw with him. He wondered if he gave such helpful mental images to the newt he would actually pass out.
Chath felt a bit irked by Ter's dismissive attitude.
"Yeah but...some of them are...so..." He tried to find the best words to describe it, "Unrealistic...in size and proportion...I mean...seriously...how are regular guys suppose to measure up?" He asked though his face went bright red as he realized the unintended pun.
Ter gave a chuckle, "Who says they are unrealistic? Maybe your just small." He said, giving a fanged grin as he couldn't help but to rise to this challenge of sorts. He wasn't after all a 'regular guy'... there was very little regular about Ter or his build, being less 'human' and more 'animal' then a most of the kid from D-Corp that he'd ever met.
"Hey Chath, want me to sneak into Ligeia's room? Scope it out and see if you have any competition?" He asked, the end of his tail flicking back and forth.
Chath's face went a deeper shade of red, why did he bother trying to have this sort of conversation with Ter in the first place. Giving a harrumphing sort of sound he crossed his arms over his chest.
"N...no..." He managed to say despite the fact he so greatly wanted to punch Ter.
"I...think I should go...th..thanks for the advice I ..guess."
Ter rose up a bit as he saw Chath take on that darker color and he gave a grin, unable to help it. Sure it was Geia of all people and he couldn't exactly see him having something like that but it wouldn't keep the Cobra from messing around with Chath. It was after all great sport, "No? Here I was trying to be helpful since you were kind enough to do the same for me." He gave a shrug, "I suppose it gives you something to think on though, huh? Geia in such a manner I mean." Blech, the idea for rather ick to Ter but he waited to see if there was any reaction from the newt.
Oh...there was a reaction...blood dripped from his nose as he seemed to suddenly realize this his hand went calmly to his face to try and stop the bleeding. Great...nosebleeds...how embarrassing...
".....I'd ask if you had any Kleenex...but you don't wear clothes...and I don't ...so I guess I am SOL...."
Ter nodded, "Yeah, sorry. Only thing I have on me is some hidden money and a vial of anti venom, never know when I might accidently bite someone." He said, shrugging. He had learned it that things could be hidden under his scales and took advantage of that little known secret. He shifted again to rise up on his coils then gave Chath a nudge, "Good luck to us both with catching up with our dragons I suppose." He told the newt, finding the nose bleed as rather funny. He hadn't even gotten hit and he was bleeding out... funny, funny stuff.
Chath was just annoyed and gave a grunt of acknowledgment to what Ter was saying. He was currently trying to stop his nose from bleeding him out. His bandages on his hands were getting...soaked...lovely.
"Yeah...luck..." he grumbled knowing it would be exactly that.
