Dante nearly jolted at the touch and his reaction was swift, shoving Greg away and narrowing his eyes dangerously, panting.
Then he calmed himself and stood straight, brushing his hair back. "I...apologize," he said, not making eye contact. "Perhaps humans do not understand how specific we Elves are. When I say that you can shake my hand and touch my shoulder, that is ALL I say you can do. I do not say that you can hug or kiss me."
A pause. "...and don't put things in my face."

Greg leaned up against his desk. “I’m sorry, Dante. I didn’t mean to make you so… uncomfortable with such a close proximity to my… humble self, but…” he smiled slyly. “You still haven’t answered my questions about your ears… Is there something… special about your ears?”

"Not really. Seriously, stay away from my face, Professor," Dante said, back to the clipped, cold tone he'd taken before hand. "I do not like things being put in my face. I will attempt to at LEAST push you away should you shove anything into said face. Am I understood?"

“Yes, Dante.” Greg said with a gentle smile. “I don’t want to annoy you like that…” Great, he couldn’t have just left it alone. Just what he needed to do. Sabotage this entire thing before anything could happen. He would have loved to have simply hit himself right then. “I will not put nor shove anything into your face…. Although I can’t hug you? At all?” Gah! He whished that he could just take that last part back and he could feel himself grimace, though he covered it up quickly.

Dante had turned and was about to leave after curtly nodding after Greg when the teacher said the last thing.
And then he suddenly remembered, sweet caresses and kisses and nails and pain and a face above him, face contorted in perverse ecstasy--
With a small wail Dante fell on his knees to the ground, hugging himself, eyes shut tight. "No. No. No. Please. No....."

Greg was imedeatly next to Dante, kneeling next to him, hands gently on his shoulders.
"Dante!" He said, shaking the proffessor and looking consered. "Dante what's wrong? Dante should I get someone for you? What... What should I do?" He would have liked to pull the other teacher closer to him, but after what had just happened he didn't want to make Dante so mad that the other would never talk to him again.

"DON'T TOUCH ME!" He cried, jerking his shoulders away and turning away from Greg, shaking. Gelnuir croaked hoarsly and fluttered his wings at Greg in seeming warning.
It took a few moments for him to regain his bearings. "I...am sorry. That was uncalled of from me. I should go." The man stood, then cast one last look over his shoulder. "...Thank you for the strawberry delicacies. They were delicious." With that, he started for the door.

“Dante, what was that about?” He had an idea, he had seen it before. He had been a bounty hunter before, he had seen the same reactions in many people but really Dante… Surely not him. Dante could practically blow you up with a word, something like that couldn’t happen and.. And Dante had to know his own worth.
“You can’t just do something like that and then expect to get out of here like nothing happened. At the very least let me take you to see Lorioth.” He said, holding onto the other teachers wrist.

"I'm FINE," he insisted, reclaiming his wrist and holding it out for Gelnuir to land on. The bird settled, making croaking sounds from the back of his throat and nibbling Dante's ear gently, trying to impart some sort of comfort to his master.
It was well taken, and the terror that had been in his eyes died out, the flushed face going back to its original dusky peach color.
"I have work to do, and I believe Rylenn wants to play with the crows. I...cannot dally. Good day, Professor Larine." With a nod, Dante started for the door again, determined not to be held back.

Greg walked up to the door as well, but when Dante went to open it, he held the door shut and looked down at the brown haired elf.
“Dante…” He didn’t really care if the other man blew him to pieces with a spell, he just… “Please, I want to know what’s wrong. I want to be able to help. You told me about your daughter, so please tell me about this too. If I can help then I will, no matter what.”

Dante almost snapped at Greg when he held the door shut, but realized that wasn't helping anything. He had no other choice, he supposed, but to offer the best he could.
"It...is not something I can talk about easily. At least not yet. Be patient...and perhaps someday I'll be able to tell you."
But not now. I'm still hurting.

“I just want to help you.” Greg said, looking down at him. He wasn’t going to cry, but he certainly was hurting, and he knew that his face showed it. “I….” He sighed and closed his eyes, head hung in defeat. “And I guess that this is all that I’m going to get out of you, isn’t it?” He sighed and shook his head. “Well if it is… Then at least let me get this too.” and with that he quickly kissed Dantes forehead, a quick press of the lips that was gone too quick to do anything about.

The peck of the lips on his forehead surprised him AND revolted him--but much to his surprise, the revulsion faded much more quickly than he'd felt.
And he felt he could give the human this.
He placed a hand on the door and pushed it open slightly. "...You said her name was Melinda."
A fair trade. This would suffice.
"....His name was Tyrius."
Dante made sure to close the door behind him.

Greg closed his eyes and searched his mind. Tyrius… He had heard that before… Or at least something like that… Where had it been?
Wait. Dante had told him a name, but only a name. Greg had told him a lot more than that, and he thought that he deserved a lot more too.
“Hey wait! Dante!” Greg yelled, pulling the door open quickly and hoping that he hadn’t waited too long and that the teacher had already left that section of the school… But all that he was met with was an empty hall way. He stared after the way that Dante would have gone for a moment and wondered if he should chase him. Instead he hit his fist into the wall and put the other to his face.
“Greg, you stupid, stupid idiot…” He shook his head. “I couldn’t even do that right…” Well this would just mean that he would have his work cut out for him. After all he had been an amazing bounty hunter, and those bounties didn’t just walk to him and announce themselves. He was going to find out about this, whither or not Dante wanted to talk to him about it.
