It took more time then expected, the distance on a map didn't really give one a lot help with determining actual distance. It had looked really short on his map but it took him so much time going by foot. He was a bit on the exhausted time by the time he got across town to where the shop was supposed to be. Only problem being that the shop wasn't here. He tilted his head to one side, a hand coming to rest on one hip, "I don't remember it being a burger place Gigan." He told his giant of a cat.
The cat starred up at the sign that read Burger Town and gave a mewing sound. This was most certainly not the shop that his boy had been talking that was for sure, it had food not random items... the cat's tail swishing behind him and he gave a cute mewing sound and nuzzled against Deimos, tail swishing, then looked up at him with one glittering gold eye as if to say 'see how cute I am, buy me something?'
Deimos looked down at his cat for a long moment before kneeling down to gather him up in his arms and picked him up best that he could given how big he was and hugged him, "Kitties aren't allowed in there, Gigan... I suppose we could walk through the drive through and order though..." He looked thoughtful at the idea.before nodding and started forward. Going this way mean talking to some stranger but it would put him outside and safely out of reach of said strangers. He should be safe enough he thought and if not he could always let the hungry cat eat the scary people...
Xbalanque was starving. Absolutely starving. He felt like he hadn't eaten in days! Well...that wasn't entirely true. He actually had a massive breakfast, a bigger dinner, and several snacks in between. It wasn't that he hadn't eaten...it was just that he was a very active and growing boy! He needed his nutrients! Thus, he was going out for food...but there was no way he was going alone! That was way too boring! So he found someone he could drag along; Gera. He would have asked Roxy, but for whatever reason he either couldn't find her or she wasn't allowed to. That was okay with him though, Gera was still great company, even if he didn't eat! The burger place came into sight, and with it came a...rather familiar shade of pink hair. Albeit further off the ground than he remembered, but it was familiar enough. Getting that 'Curio Nearby!' vibe also helped. "Oh, hey...I know that pink hair!" He told Gera happily, pointing at the figure in the distance before calling out loudly. "DEEEEEEIMOS! HEY!"
Gera wasn't quite sure how he ended up accompanying Kay to the place that served food. Didn't he know that he didn't eat? Of course Kay did know and he was still not sure as to why he was coming. Especially since Roxy wasn't accompanying them. He was quiet on the way there listening to Kay talk he had little to say in the conversation though he did turn his head when Kay was suddenly announcing Deimos's name and then pointing to the pink hair boy.
He looked up, he waved as he was starting to understand a bit of the ...greetings of people.
"Hello Deimos." He replied after Kay in a much more...quiet manner.
Deimos gave a jump at the sound of his own name, turning quickly to look over his shoulder then sighed in relief. He thought that he'd been found by someone from his own family before he'd been able to find... wait a second! "Kay! Gera!" He turned and ran over toward them, despite his fear of running to fast as he always fears falling down on his head... he didn't want to get a scrap that got infected, didn't want to break anything, but two of the three people he was looking for were right here! He came to a sliding halt in front of them, while a part of the boy wanted to pounce them and hug them he didn't want to offend either of them... another of his fears.
There was a huffing sound from Gigan and he turned to follow after his boy, wanting his dinner but wanting more to protect his boy from strangers... and there was nobody stranger then these two if you asked him.
"Whoooa...didn't think ya had that in ya, buddy!" Kay laughed after watching Deimos run towards them. Ever friendly, the young man tugged Deimos into a hug, then stepped back. Nahual seemed okay with the close contact, as he recalled the pink haired one to be suitably afraid of him. "Oh...I thought there was something different! You grew! And still have feet, awesome." Grinning, he looked down at their feet; Deimos' sandled ones, Gera's booted ones, and his nearly constantly bare ones. Feet were still pretty cool. Kay was still very hungry, but hunger could take a side burner to seeing Deimos again. "Whattcha doin out all alone, eh?"
Gera watched as Deimos ran towards them, strange he had never envisioned the boy running before. Probably because he had never seen the boy run ever. He watched as Kay dragged Dei into a hug, and he wondered if he was suppose to do the same...but instead he only offered a hand, if Dei wanted a hug he would ask for one he guessed.
"Yes..you have grown tall.." He echoed Kay's thoughts there were times he wished he could process emotions better...be more like the two boys..but he couldn't think past the fact he was...just so very different from them.
"He is not..alone..Gigantes...is with him." Gera noted as he watched the cat come to keep up with his boy. He knelt and offered hand to the creature as he recalled that the cat didn't like him much last time.
Deimos gave a happy sound as Kay pulled him in for the hug that he had been thinking about, happily hugging him back... though he kept one eye on the hair snake, a little bit nervous around Nahual still as he didn't want to get himself chewed on by that particular part of Kay. He leaned into his friend for a moment before he drew back, giving him a smile... then looked a little confused, "I what?" He looked down at himself, noticing the sleeves of his robe did look shorter... and he was showing a bit more leg then when he'd left home... hrm. He hadn't noticed, maybe that was the dizzy spell he'd had earlier? Here he'd just thought it was something to do with being so far away from home on his own.
He looked over at Gera then took his other friend's hand, lacing their fingers together, having thought that maybe Gera wanted to hold hands with him, "Ahh... its strange, I came out trying to find the two of you." He explained, sounding excited and a little breathless over his luck in having found them both as he had.
Gigantes looked up at Gera as the hand was offered up to him, starred, sat down, and stuck his nose in the air, ignoring the metal boy. He didn't have milk this time around which meant he was out of luck when it came to making friends with the snobby cat. Strange that he could act so elitist since before Deimos had taken him in he was a stray fighting for his meals with other cats. That was then, this was now though.
"Gigantes?" Kay parroted, staring at Gera then looking around for this...Gigantes person. But there was nobody else around! Maybe he meant the cat? Blinking, he tilted his head...the cat did look like it deserved that name...big cat. "Huh...guess so...When'd you get the cat?" Now that it was pointed out, Nahual noticed it...and hissed lightly before curling up in Kay's hair. A snobbish move, but no feline was going to show him up! "You came to find us? Cool! Good timing, then! I'm starving, I wanted to get me some burgers and dragged Gera along for company." Kay explained with a grin, shaking his head. Sure he didn't really DRAG Gera, but it was damned close enough! He saw the big cat more or less snob Gera, and with a laugh he stepped closer, holding out his dark and scarred hand to try his own luck with the beast.
Gera was a bit surprised to have the cat snub him...he seemed to ...well accept him well enough last time. Though he was pretty sure it was because of the fact he was going to the store.
"Maybe...get something for Gigantes at the restaurant...they have fish there?" He inquired as he never ate out except for one time with Trin and Roxy at a Chinese buffet.
He ...had been about to pull his hand away from Deimos but found their fingers intertwined...and not wanting to be rude tried to keep his hand lax as he didn't want to accidentally crush the boy's fingers with his own and thus laid their arms down by their sides. O..kay this was new.
Gigan seemed to ignore Kay as well and only turned at mention of fish from the metal one and suddenly he was purring, once more he was Gera's friend it would appear. So long as food was involved he could share his affection with others other then Dei.. but only then.
The pink haired boy looked down at this cat before giving a shake of his head. Well, at least he was easy to figure out he thought to himself before he looked at Kay, smiling, "Really? We... ended up here because of bad directions, this was supposed to be the shop... but its not." He murmured, wondering how far off he was from here he'd been trying to get to. He seemed quite happy over having found his friends despite having gone to the wrong place, "If your going to eat I would love to eat with you guys... though Gigan can't go inside I don't think since hes a cat."
Gigantes gave an unamused sort of huffing sound at mention that cats couldn't go inside. How racist! His ears laid back and he looked displeased over the fact that he was allowed inside the restaurant but everyone else was!
"They might have fish...some places do." Kay would eat fish on occasion, but he loved beef way more. But...bad directions? Kay looked at Deimos for a moment, contemplating the way to the shop, then pointed down the street, the way they came. "Maybe you turned left instead of right?" Unless he came from a totally different direction but...well, at least he tried! The young man was well aware that he was being ignored by the cat, and at first he thought nothing of it...but once the feline looked offended, Kay laughed and knelt down more to the cat's level, ruffling the fur on it's head before scratching under its chin. "We'll eat outside then, so Mr. Kitty here doesn't get angry." He suggested happily, fearlessly touching and petting the black thing. "Fair enough?"
Gera nodded his head listening to the pair discuss the subject of eating. Really..he would just let his portion go to the cat, he didn't need food. Unless they had some form of metallic silverware he could absorb. He squeezed Dei's hand unconsciously, like he was flexing his fingers before he looked to Kay and then Dei and then back to Gigan.
"I can stay outside...with the cat. Not like I can provide much in the way of tastes and preferences..." he explained as he knew he would feel bad if he left the cat outside even for a couple of minutes. It seemed really attached to Dei.
