Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tera's other was on the move, his mood a rather poor one as he went from where they lived to where Kyruie would hopefully be located. He was pretty well certain that if he went off searching for him, only to find out that Kyruie was away fetching his stash, he was going to wrap his hands around his neck and squeeze. A grumbling sound escaped from him as he quickened his pace, as though he was going to somehow find his fellow Water Tribesman before he vanished. Teeth gritting he could feel his emotions roiling that much more. Did that man actually think that he could get away with that? Did he think that he could just chase them off like that? He didn't care, really he didn't, but Tera did! The man's words had cut into him and that did bother him, it was up to him to protect Tera after all.

To think it would be the boy's father that would attack him instead of Kyruie who he'd always thought was the real danger to them... him, Tera. He wasn't worried about himself! Here he was heading straight for the guy... it truly was a weird turn of events. Lifting a hand he rubbed it against his temples, "That idiot had better be home." He muttered to himself, hoping that he found him at home instead of Ashta. He wasn't sure what he'd do if he were forced to face off with that guy, he wasn't the one that he wanted to deal with because Ashta was just... well, a nice guy. He didn't know want him to know about his existence or he might balk at taking care of Tera. Tera could play with Ashta but him...? He could only deal with Kyruie who was equally as messed up.

As he got to Kyruie's home he looked up at it, starring for a moment, before he started forward, "Alright On'os, if you're actually out there, I could use a bit of your sort of power."

Tera's other froze in place when he spotted the very person that he was searching for, a bit surprised to find him here. He was actually pretty well certain that Kyruie would be off skulking about somewhere and yet here he was. It was odd, why was he happy to see him? No, he wasn't happy to see him he was just glad that he didn't have to search around all day to find the idiot, nothing else! It wasn't that he was excited to see him because he wanted to see him he thought to himself before he took a couple steps forward, closing the distance between the two of them. He only came to a halt when he was withing arm's reach, listening to him as he tried to pawn him off on Ashta, tempting, but no.

"I am not here to see your brother, you idiot. You're the one that I am looking for." He said, crossing his arms over his chest as he gave Kyruie a once over, sizing him up. He looked exhausted but he didn't look as though he'd gotten into his stash at least. That look he'd had about him, that stupid expression that made him want to punch the guy, wasn't present at the moment. A bonus he supposed, not wanting to turn Tera over to him if he was in such a condition. Giving a snort he said, "Don't think anything stupid though, I have no great love for you or anything, I just... Nessat's beard..." He trailed off, not wanting to admit that he'd run away from Tera's home or that he'd gotten into a fight with Tera's father over what the man thought of Tera, as well as himself.

Instead he shook his head, changing the subject, "Can I come in? Or are you heading out to get into... trouble?" Better to call it 'trouble' then what it really was, just in case the 'good' brother was about, certain that he'd interfere with the two of them which would just complicate things.

A grumbling sound escaped from his throat as Kyruie outright told him what he had been planning to do, something that he'd messed up for him. A part of him was glad, that he was able to mess up his plans to go and get into his stash. He would rather deal with this guy when he was in a normal state of mind, the other version of him was far too much trouble. He knew that Kyruie would just cause him problems in that state... then again it wasn't as though he were completely innocent like this, was he? He gone off and gotten far too close to Tera the last time they were in the same room after all only to have Ashta see it all. Such a pain.

"I'd rather you didn't, just... I don't know, behave yourself for a moment or something." He muttered to his fellow Matori. There was a part of him that wanted to shake him to see if that would make him behave him but decided against it. Instead he gave a sighing sound as he followed along after him, debating over the question, "I wasn't looking for you because I want to per say... you are just the only one aware of me that isn't freaking out at the moment." He said, rubbing a hand against his face, his jerky movements showing the frustration he was feeling at the moment over everything he was stuck dealing with, the addict included. Why was this the only person he could talk to? Such a pain.

After a moment he sat down, running his fingers through his hair, then looked up at him, starring through narrowed amber eyes before sighing, "Of course it did! I only come out when something happens, I don't get to enjoy a peaceful moment." He complained, sighed, then shook his head, trying to calm himself a little. No reason to take the actions of Tera's father out on Kyruie, if he was going to be mean to Kyruie it would be for something he did otherwise it was just out of line.

Reaching out Tera's other took the drink that was offered to him, starring down into the dark liquid for a moment as Kyruie explained to him what it was, "Wine, huh? I'd almost think you were trying to get me drunk... though I couldn't think of a single reason why you might way to do that." He said with a little roll of his eyes before shrugging, taking a sip of the drink. What would it hurt? A bit of alcohol to possibly calm his nerves, it would be nice, though he had to admit it was strange to be out for this long without something consistantly being wrong. A strange twist of events but something that he knew wasn't going to last, not when he wasn't the one that was meant to be in control.

He turned to look over at Kyruie for a moment when he asked what happened, then away again, finding himself in debate. Should he actually bother to tell Kyruie? Would he even care? He supposed in a way he might since he had gotten himself tangled up with Tera along with Ashta due to Tera's mother being so over protective. He finally sighed a said, "I might not be in the care of yourself and your brother much longer if my... no, Tera's father has anything to do with it. He's told us what he thinks of us, that we... Tera, isn't his son." He muttered, hands tightening on the cup that he was holding to the point he was afraid he might break it.

Forcing himself to ease his hold he lifted the cup to his lips, knocking back the contents, before adding, "He's going to send us... Tera off to one master or another, to learn to do... whatever Tera decides so that we... he... won't 'pervert' the memory of his son any longer. Do you know how long I've been protecting Tera? Yet me says that I am just something broken and wrong..." Pushing to his feet he set to pacing a little, clasping the now empty cup tightly in his hands. He paused for a moment, then laughed, "Well... he might send us... him... off. Maybe not, I did sort of tell him off on Tera's behalf now that I think about it." Oops, that might have ruined that free ride the man offered Tera so that he'd get lost. Oh well, he'd figure it out....

There was a long moment that he just starred at Kyruie before he actually gave a laugh, "Yes, that is the problem here, isn't it? The suffering of your family if you get fired." He gave another roll of his eyes before lifting the drink to his lips, taking a sip from it, "It's a good thing that I didn't come to you seeking some sort of comfort or I would have been sorely disappointed, Kyruie." He was glad that it wasn't really so much sympathy or affection he was looking for when he came here. He was just looking for someone to listen who wouldn't stare at him like he'd grown a second head, he'd dealt with enough of that already today for his likely. Kyruie only thinking of how it would affect his side of things was annoying, sure, but it wasn't as though it shoudl be completely unexpected.

Giving a shake of his head he said, "I don't know, as I said he's not my... ahh... Tera's father, at least not in the man's eyes. He probably feels his son is dead and even if Tera is his son I mean look at him, me... us..." He waved a hand at himself before sighing. There was no way that the man would have accepted him, not in this condition. Sighing he found himself sitting down once more, starring into his cup, "It's not like either of us asked to be like this, for that b*****d to lash out in such a manner just because Tera isn't the perfect memory he build up in his head after so many years? It just makes me want to... I don't know, punch him or something."

After another long draw off the cup, one that half drained it he looked over at Kyruie and asked, "It's probably too much to ask of Ashta to punch him for me, huh? That whole 'knocking sense into the guy' type of thing?" Ashta seemed way too nice and he couldn't quite picture him punching some random guy in the fact just because Tera's other asked him to.

Giving a shrug he said, "I suppose that it was too much to ask for given that he is the 'good' brother out of the two of you, huh?" He murmured, giving Kyruie a once over. He bet anything that if he were to offer to help Kyruie to get into 'trouble' that he might be able to get him to deck that self righteous b*****d but he wouldn't do that. He didn't much care for the 'trouble' that Kyruie got into since he was positive that one day it was going to get Tera into trouble of a different sort. Best not to help him in anyway when it came to that sort of thing he thought to himself before he glanced toward Kyruie who seemed to be trying to be nice to him, sympathizing now it would seem.

"It can be a bit of a pain, always having to be the one to deal with the various bad situations, but I can't complain. I mean it was why I was 'born' so to speak." He supposed that if there were no bad things to deal with them he wouldn't be around. He didn't care for the things that he had to deal with but at least he was alive, that was something at least. Not a lot, but something.

Jerking so that he was sitting up straight he starred at Kyruie for a long moment after the offer me made, before he started to laugh, "I'm sure you'd probably like that, huh? I mean given what you said to Tera before, what caused me to make my presence known to you, I am sure you wouldn't mind he taking a swing at you." He snorted then, "I won't, can't say I am in a violent mood exactly, but I will keep the offer in mind." Reaching out he caught hold of one of Kyruie's wrists, using it to drag the other man a little closer, looking his reddened, scratched up arms over, "That's not very pretty, you know someone is bound to notice that, probably Ashta, what do you plan to tell him? Bug bites?"

"You should convince Tera to go into healing, I'm sure that way he'd be able to help you cover you backside when you do such stupid things." He said, giving a roll of his eyes. It wasn't as though he wanted to help Kyruie through magic per say, but since the guy was sort of the only one he could talk to openly without causing a commotion he was at least useful in that aspect. A shame he was pretty well useless in other aspects he though tto himself, watching as Kyruie set to tugging at his grip, as though trying to get away, but in a very poor attempt at it.

A bit of a smile appeared on his lips as he tightened his hold on Kyruie's wrist, "I get the feeling that you really don't want to get away." He murmured, not letting him go so easily. It was odd, that Kyruie seemed to be so eager to end up under someone's thumb again. It wasn't something that Tera wanted, wasn't something that Tera's other wanted, and yet they were stuck with a clingy mother, two paid body guards, one of which was sort of more needy then useful in his eyes. They were quite different in many aspects, that being one of them, but he supposed that it was like Tera seemed to think, that they might be able to get along because they were both broken. Not the best thing to base a relationship on but Tera wasn't really the best when it came to making smart decisions.

After a moment he finally released his hold on Kyruie and said, "I suppose long sleeves might be the best option... or perhaps some soft gloves for you to wear so you can't hurt yourself." Normally an option reserved for little infants but it might still work for someone like Kyruie he thought to himself, giving a bit of a smirk at the suggestion he offered his fellow Matori.

A thoughtful sound escaped from Tera's other, as though he was considering Kyruie's words and the way that he was being a bit on the selfless side when it came to allowing Tera to learn whatever he wanted to learn. It was cute, to a degree, that he was being so... thoughtful. He found himself wondering if things would be different and it was Tera sitting here instead of him, how would Kyruie act then? What would be try to force upon the more naive Tera? He shook his head, shoving aside such thoughts so that he could glance toward Kyruie who was acting... cute? Was that the word? He was at least being for the moment quiet and sitting there with a blush on his face, he'd almost call it cute if he didn't know the true cause behind his blushing.

Leaning back into the couch that he was stting in he looked down at his hands, seeming to be studying them intently for a moment, picking at his nails when the silence seemed to drag for a time. It was strange, just sitting here, quietly, not having to deal with the normal situations that were his to deal with. He knew he should probably return control to Tera, it was the right thing to do, but did he trust Kyruie with him? Glancing toward said Matori once more as the man spoke up he starred at him, then shrugged, "I can tell you how I came to be, one day I just... was, finding himself standing between Tera and our master, in a manner of speaking." He said, lifting a hand so that he could chew on his thumbnail for a moment, evening it out.

"I protect him, yes, I am around taking the brunt of all the bad things so that he can remain innocent and naive and stupid... he's an idiot, but it's what I do." He shrugged as though what he did was nothing all that special, "Our master... was a horrible creature, a b*****d, one I am sure is raging over the fact that Tera was taking away from him. I hope he is miserable on his own." He smirked a bit at the thought of the man crying over his many losses, it was the least he deserved. Maybe he'd go after him one day, once Tera was stronger and had power or weapons they could use against the monster. Or maybe he could sic Ashta on him if he gave the man the right motivation... either could work.
