Welcome to Gaia! ::

Something Ever had said early in the week had come back to Zyk after the blonde had successfully extracted him from their quarters. It had been a request, a desire to be somewhere where he could feel the beat and pulse of music around him. It seemed easy enough, and after the day they'd had it also seemed like the sort of thing that would provide the best sort of distraction from a busy mind.

So they'd head to the human world, and they'd find an unsuspecting youth to question.

What they had learned, no aggressive persuasion required, was that they could find what they were looking for a few blocks from where they were currently standing. A club, as the young man had called it. A place where the humans went to dance and drink.

That sounded just about right.

Zyk had at least worn shoes with his tattered jeans and button up, that was certainly an improvement, and, he gathered through observation, something of a requirement. He frowned up at the bouncer, tempted to do exactly what Ever so quietly suggested in his ear, but eventer have a small shake off his head. "Would draw unwelcomed attention."

He watched curiously as something of a must managed to slip past, eyes dropping to subtle exchange, and made a small oh sound as he realized what had taken place. They could buy their way in.

Driving a few files bills from his pocket, Zyk flashed them at the bouncer. Who pocketed them, asked aside, and waved them through. The agent reached back to grab Ever's hand to lead him inside.

It was certainly not like anything they'd ever encountered before. Not even an all out battle seemed this kid, or this chaotic. Eyes a little wide, Zyk automatically looped an arm around Ever as the blonde leaned in close to him. If they got seperated, he wasn't entirely sure if Ever would be able to find his way back too him. Not with this many bodies, and the music pulsing around them.

New was a bit of an understatement, but Zyk nodded in agreement anyways. This want their quiet, relaxing Oasis in the Dusk.

That being said, despite the volume of the music, the beat had the effect that a lot of music could, and Zyk found his movements staying to sync up a bit with the beat.

They were being jostled a bit, not on purpose, but there were just too many people in a small place trying to have a good time. It would have been impossible to move around with our bumping into anyone else. Regardless of why, it had the famine alchemist's hackles raised a bit, and as Ever pressed closer, swaying, Zyk's arms curled around him rather possessively.

"Some dancing, some drinking." His head turned as he looked over the crowd. "Some are engaged in light foreplay."

"They are kissing, hands wandering." Shameless. Ever wasn't wrong about it being their sort of scene. The realization of that was enough to start Zyk out of his hyper alert state, gaze leaving the crowd to fall on Ever instead, focus shifting entirely onto the other stallion.

Which meant his movements were no longer stiff, but more fluid. Actually dancing now, rather than simply swaying to the beat. He'd worried initially, that it would all be a bit much for the blonde--sensory overload--but he seemed to be enjoying it.

Huffing out the last of his tension in a light chuckle, Zyk let his hands slid down to rest t the small of Ever's back.

Zyk found at times he envied Ever his hieghtened senses, and wind of that was part of his attachment to the other stallion. It had existed prior to the blonde's generous gift, but there was no denying it had grown since then. The gift itself a contributor, of course.

He was watching ever as best he could in such close quarters, a thoughtful expression on the alchemist's face as the swayed in time to the pulsing beat that penetrated down to the bones.

"That would be the alcohol, most likely." Pale eyes flicked to the bar, it was close. "We could purchase some."

Zyk frowned thoughtfully, shivering under the wake of the nails along his scalp. "I am not entirely sure." He glanced towards the bar again, chin moving against the side of Ever's face. "We could check, though if there are adverse reactions it could ruin the remainder of the evening." Which, as it turned out, was going fairly well. Better than expected, at least.

His fingers tapped against thin hips where he held them before shifting so the pads of his thumbs could seek out the warmth of bare skin. There were many layers, but he'd find it in the end.
