Yukito was sitting out on the edge of the fountain looking out over the garden of the mansion, he was taking a break from cleaning in the clinic that he'd been spending a lot of time at of late. He found that it was a good place to hang out at both so that he could get it closer and closer to good working order. That and people seemed to drift by and would peek in when they found it open and the lights on. They would visit even when they weren't hurt or sick, already he'd gotten to see Gil and Flitch since he started working in there again.
What he really needed to do was try to find a time when he could catch up once more with the Doctor Cousins that he'd interned for a while back, to see them and Dante again would be nice.
Among many others that he'd not seen in a while.
The dragon boy's tail started to swish idly at his side, a breeze blowing in that carried with it the hints that it was going to start to cool off, he really should work on gathering the herbs that he could before it got to cold for them to grow but... for the moment he was to relaxed. He would worry about it later.

Jan was gone. Off to her boarding school in who knows where for who knew how long~. Alas and alack, Lyrus was bored out of his damn mind. He had finally given up drowning his sorrows in favor of actually attempting to complete the supposedly easy quest he had been granted. One down, four more to go. After a long, sobering shower, he'd dressed nicely in a blazer and slacks, closed shop and headed for the mansion, figuring he could steal some alcohol from Aylee if he did happen to find anyone there.
He happened to notice Yukito as he was nearing the mansion and made the mistake of deciding from a distance that he was a particularly attractive young woman. It wasn't until he neared that he recognized his friend, but still he was only slightly disppointed by the realization. He hadn't seen Yukito in quite some time, and here he was--grown as well, to boot. He nodded a greeting as he neared, flashing a grin to the dragon Sin. "Afternoon Yukito. Haven't see you in a while, eh?"

Yukito's ear gave a little twitch when he heard someone coming his way, he turned his gaze to the side before he gave a smile to the one that he saw there, "Lyrus." He said, rising up to his feet. Wow, so he wasn't the only one to grow since the last time that he'd seen people. Good, that made him feel less awkward in this new, taller form since he was meeting with someone of similar size, "It's been quite a while yes, how have you been?"
His tail started to swish back and forth in a happy manner. That confirmed it, the best place to find other Sin was at Aylee's mansion, they seemed attracted to his place. No doubt since it was where they came from after Chaco helped them be born.

"Coping," he drawled in reply, pausing a short distance from the white dragon. "I've got a little shop downtown, living in a flat above it. Doing pretty well as of late, really." Lies. He hated that shop, despised it. Junk and dust and very few customers who smelled as if they'd had a bath in the last month. He really wanted to open one somewhere a bit classier, sell some of his glass creations, his jewely, but such a thing required more money than he had available for a good while. Nonetheless, he could look the part of the wealthy shop owner, and his business wasn't doing that badly...especially with the bit of illegal trade on top of it. "And how've you been?" he purred, quirking a brow.

Yukito's eyes went wide, Lyrus had a shop of his own and a place to live above it that was his? Wow... he was quite impressed by that it would seem by the look on his face. Knowing how well Lyrus was doing made him want to work harder himself, "Thats cool, what sort of shop is it?" He asked, curious.
"I'm not that bad myself, working on all of the same old stuff myself really. Nothing so illustrious as owning a shop of my own, but fun and fills my time." He said, "Mostly I'm working on my potions and getting the clinic up and running again." The clinic was the most exciting thing since it meant that he could use the potions he knew how to create to give others to make them feel better.

"Tch, nothing special yet," he admitted, chuckling weakly and stepping past the dragon to take a seat on the edge of the fountain. "It's not really an anything shop. It's more of an everything shop. And then I toss some of my own creations into the mix." That certainly sounded better than 'junk shop', anyway.
He listened curiously as Yuki explained his own activities, cocking his head to the side. "Clinic? So you did go with the doctor thing, then? Good for you. Bet you're damn good at it."

"An 'Everything Shop'? I like the sound of that." He said then tilted his head to the side in thought. If it had Lyrus's own creations that meant that things made of glass! That had him wondering, "Do you have any glass bottles there? I am in needs of more of those for my potions. I always seem to run out." He had to many experimental potions sitting around that since he would never use them just sat in the bottles he did have and took up space.
"MmmHmm. I figured that it was the best path for me." He liked to help people and had the ability to do so thusly there was no reason why he shouldn't do just that. The dragon's face then flushed a bit at the other Sin's words, "I don't know about 'Damn Good' but I think I am doing alright."
'Damn Good' would be when he could help people he didn't know without stretching the truth about their injuries.

Haha, it had worked. Lyrus allowed himself a smirk, but blinked, caught off guard by the simple question. "Glass bottles? I don't doubt it. If you need a consistant size or shape, now, that would be more difficult, but I'm sure I've got plenty of bottles..." Be they actually for sale or left over from various parties.
"I'm sure you're a fine doctor," he assured the dragon Sin with a nod. "You've always had a knack for it..." He could still remember, if vaguely, back when Yukito had helped with the bite on his hand. The bite from that fox, Momoro. ...Hmm. He hadn't seen Kilah for a while. Dragging his thoughts back to the present, he again stood, quirking a brow in thought and sweeping a hand towards the mansion. "If it's bottles you're after, I'm sure Aylee wouldn't mind if we scavenged her home a bit."

"They don't need to be a specific shape, so long as they can hold the potions that I make." He said, wonderful! That meant that he would be able to try out a few more potions that he'd seen in some books. They were gonna be fun to experiment with, maybe he could try them out on one of his brothers.
His flush got a little darker, "Thank you." He didn't get a lot of compliments on this sort of things since his family was used to his hobbies, he smiled before glancing towards the mansion when it was motioned at. He chewed on his lip thoughtfully, "You don't think that she would mind that?"
Would she actually have extra bottles laying around? Anything was possible he supposed, "Alright, its worth a look." Yuki said, willing to search around with Lyrus.

"Ah, well then I'm sure I've got at least some for you," he replied with a nod, starting towards the mansion. "You can drop by and pick them up, perhaps. Or I can bring them by here. I don't know where you live." but then, Yukito didn't know where he lived either. ...Of course, either could be easily remedied...
Smirking faintly to himself, he led the way into the mansion and towards the kitchen, shaking his head. "Not at all! Not at all. This mansion if for the Sin'aeis as much as it is Aylee. What's hers is ours, what's ours--she could probably afford without bugging us. Now, where do you think she keeps the alcohol?"

"Thank you Lyrus, would be best to stop by here. I've been here a lot of late so that would give you the best chance of catching me." He said, following along after him. He would have to get some cash from his mother and maybe trade Lyrus some potions as well to exchange for the bottles when he got them, "I can give you my address if you like, I am sure there is some paper inside I an write it down on for you."
He looked around a moment taking in Lyrus's words and his logic, he supposed that could be true of someone that lived in a place like this. He doubted a few empty bottles going missing wouldn't really matter would it, "Alcohol?" He asked, glancing over at Lyrus, "There is some in the Clinic." He offered. This answer would show the other Sin how naieve and oblivious Yuki was when it came to things like that. The only alcohol he was familiar with was the kind for cleaning out wounds.

"Here works, then." That would be no problem. He could lug them over during his next visit. Which was likely to be soon, depending on how well this one went. "It'll be easier for me to manage. I'm around here fairly often nowadays as well." Hunting down youngsters who didn't need much to get drunk. It cost too much to get adults wasted.
Lyrus paused in step, shooting Yukito a curious glance as if he wasn't quite sure he had heard correctly. Chuckling softly, he continued on and set about searching the cabinets. "Ah well, too long of a walk, I'd imagine. Something to drink, then... Let's see..." A short search later revealed a rack of bottles lined up in one cabinet. Pleased, he pulled out a few, grinning his approval at the labels and setting them on the counter, then hunting down a pair of glasses. "Take your pick."

"Drink?" Yukito's eyes went to the bottles that Lyrus had drug out, moving over to pick one of them up. It was an odd shaped bottle that contained a brightly colored green liquid, he looked up Lyrus then said what would no doubt sound dumb but escaped before he could consider thinking the words over, "What is it?"
From the looks of it he would have to guess it as some sort of juice. What else came in that sort of color after all?
"Midori." He read from the front of it.

"Good choice," he purred, without answering the question. Not his favorite, but it would do. Reaching over, he plucked the bottle from Yukito's hands and twisted the top off, pouring a bit into either glass. However, once he had replaced the bottle on the counter, he picked up a second--an expensive brand of vodka--and twisted that top as well, topping off both glasses with some. "But let's up the stakes a bit, eh?"
Picking up one glass, he gestured for Yukito to do the same, chuckling and taking a sip of his own before bothing to address the dragon Sin's question. "It's just a drink, Yukito. Try it. I'm sure you'll like it."

Yukito watched as the contents of two of the bottles were mixed together into a pair of glasses. Up the stakes? He wondered what that meant. Before he could aske he found himself picking up the glass in front of him, "Ahh, ok." If it were just a drink it was nothing that he had to worry about right? He gave a shrug before he took a large sip, swallowed... hard, then blinked back tears. It was... strong, kinda stung when it went down, and it made a path that felt hot from his mouth to his stomach.
The dragon Sin gave a cough then starred into the cup oddly, "Are you sure this stuff is ok to drink?" He asked before taking a smaller sip the second time, holding it in his mouth to taste it before swallowing again, a little easier the second time going down he supposed. And he doubted that Lyrus would feed him something that was bad.
