((Okay, this thread is open to -anyone- who would like to interact with Demyx. Organization Kitsu, non Organization Kitsu, whatever xD it doesn't matter! Feel free to jump in, just try not to overload the poor boy. He's a bit skittish.
Also, I'm not up to date with everyone's Kitsu. So, if posting here, please post some sort of picture with your first post as well. That way I can start to link faces with names heart ))  It would figure that Demyx had quickly found a source of water to amuse himself in. For the past hour or so the Nobody had been swimming around contently in the river. He had picked a spot near the waterfall, and had enjoyed an easy swim despite the obvious current.
But, that was earlier. Now the water Nobody lay sprawled on his back on the shore. Eyes shut, he was completely content in basking in the warm sun. It was nice being away from the others for a while. At least here, alone by the river, he didn't have to worry about being picked on. At least not yet...
Ears flicking lazily, Demyx focused in on the constant noise from the rushing waterfall. A musician at heart, or lack there of, the boy could find the natural music in nearly anything. This waterfall was no exception, and the melodious one was quite content to listen to it. Of course, this left him open to a sneak attack, as his hearing was focused on the drumming waterfall and not anything else around him.

((*dives in to take advantage* x3))  Suyitnu had been looking for a place to swim for some time - he may have been a fire bender, but he was also partially Water Tribe and had a liking for the water, especially if it was chilly, for the chill was one thing that didn't particularly bother him.
The skittish kitsu crept forward carefully and chirped quietly, humming as he reached out to touch a paw to the liquid, blinking slowly. A moment later, he realized there was another, eyes widening and a squeak escaping him as he stared at Demyx for several moments, completely lost as to what he should do now. Sure, the other kitsu was just sort of laying there, relaxing, but...
Shifting slightly, Suyi worked up a brush of courage, taking a step closer to the musician. Swallowing hard, taking a deep breath... "Hi."

It would seem, at first, that Demyx had taken no notice of the approach of the other kitsu nor his brief greeting. In reality, it had simply taken his mind a moment to realize that someone -was- indeed talking over the noise of the waterfall. With a startled yelp, the water Nobody scrambled to his paws...and promptly fell on his face. The Organization coats were simply not made for quick escapes like that.
Gathering himself to his paws once more, Demyx cast a startled look towards the other.
"Um...h-hi?"
Okay Demyx, relax! This could be a great opportunity to meet others! Or...a great opportunity to get beaten up. ...Nonono! He couldn't think like that. Besides, the other one seemed just as nervous as he did. Demyx didn't need to really know someone to pick up on that emotion, it simply came naturally to him.

Suyitnu looked surprised as he watched the other first not respond at all, then respond so suddenly, ears perking a bit and a chirping sound coming from him. Then he laughed softly, expression softening and stance slipping into one more relaxed. It seemed that this kitsu in his strange fur - fabric, like his fathers' - was just as nervous as he was.
"Hi... I'm Suyi," he said quietly, taking a shuffling step forward and pausing again, giving the other every chance to tell him to go away.

The blonde fidgeting from paw to paw, his tails in constant motion behind him. Either he simply had too much energy to stand still now that he was up, or he was incredibly nevous. Odds pointed to the second choice.
"H-hi Suyi! I'm..um..D-demyx"
Right, no need to trip over his own name. Though by now his mind was racing to find a way out of this situation, or at least make it a bit calmer. The other seemed nervous, but Demyx still wasn't sure -why- he seemed nervous.
"I'm um..n-not in your territory or something, am I?"
That would be just great. Go out to take a nice relaxing swim and end up annoying another Kitsu with his mere presence. It would be just his luck to do something like that.
"C-cause if I am...I c-can like...leave or something?"

Territory? Suyi's eyes widened a bit and his ears perked up, before he laughed sheepishly at shook his head. "Heavens no..." he said softly, keeping a distance between them for now. The other must have been as nervous - for he felt it was impossible to be more so - as he was, given his fidgeting and his stumbled speech.
"I was just wandering, and I come to this place on occasion, and... and you were here, but it's okay. You don't need to leave," he said quickly, trying to calm the other and himself. "It's... it's nice to meet you, Demyx."

"Oh..um...okay! It's n-nice to meet you too."
Demyx was smiling now. Sure, it was a bit of a nervous smile, but at least it was progress. This wasn't so bad! The other had been wandering like him and they just ended up in the same place. No harm done! Besides, Suyi seemed friendly enough, and Demyx did like the idea of making friends.
Slowly, ever so slowly, the robed Kitsu stepped forward towards the other. Mentally he told himself that if Suyi made some sort of wrong move he'd run away as fast as possible, but hopefully such a thing wouldn't be necessary.

For the briefest of moments, as the other approached, Suyi's tails went between his legs and he hunkered down a bit.
But he was quick to scold himself. He and Demyx were speaking, kindly, and nothing bad had even seemed to consider happening. So he made himself relax, standing up to his full height again and lifting his ears, tails flicking about lightly, but in a certainly friendly manner. "I don't think I've ever seen anyone else around here... it's actually... sort of nice for a change of company. Fish aren't exactly talkative."
That sounded really dumb after the words escaped him. Hopefully, Demyx wouldn't think the same.

Demyx noticed the tail tucking, but chose not to comment on it. He knew how such fear and nervousness felt, and he certainly didn't want to call someone else out on it. So, smiling still and trying to seem as friendly and non threatening as possible, the water Nobody walked until he was a few feet from Suyi and took a seat there.
If Suyi was worried about sounding dumb, he might be surprised at Demyx's next choice of words.
"Well they're kinda talkative, but it's not anything we can really understand well. Kinda sad really, I bet they'd have some interesting things to say to us if we could understand them."
One might think he was joking, but Demyx showed no signs of such a thing. He felt in tune with water creatures, so of course he'd have something to say about fish.

Those words made Suyi's ears perk and he stared at Demyx for several moments, before turning his attention to the water, chirping softly as he mulled over the thought. Then he smiled at the other, feeling more relaxed now, just from that simple reply.
"I've heard that the Aqua kitsusagi can communicate with fish," he said softly, shifting to sit down, humming softly as he did so. "Sort of makes me wish I could communicate with them... but I have a feeling that, while one fish may be all right to talk to, a school of fish would drive me crazy."

Ah yes, the aquatic ones. Demyx envied them, yet on the same paw didn't. He loved water, he really did, but he didn't much like the idea of being a creature fully dependent on it for every aspect of survival. Thoughts drifted briefly to how it must feel to be a fish or something in a drying pond before he shook it away. No, he didn't really like to think of water as a destructive source, not even on a such a minuscule degree.
"Yeah, a whole bunch of voices at once can be a bit...distracting? Though that's true with anything."
Tails swishing easily around him, Demyx's mood had obviously shifted. It seemed that neither he nor Suyi were so bad after the inital nervousness was worked out.
"It'd be fun to talk to them, but I think in the end I'd prefer just trying to understand them as is. Kinda challenging, but it keeps ya occupied."

"Most certainly." Suyi paused, before laughing softly and looking at Demyx with a warm smile. "You know... don't take offense, but I never though that I would come across another kitsu as nervous as I was, who also passed the time trying to understand fish, as I do, or lazing about, as I do."
He chuckled and shifted to lay down, looking relaxed despite this day starting out as one of his 'bad' days - a day of jumping at every sound. "It's sort of soon to say it, I suppose, but I'm glad we sort of bumped into each other, Demyx..."

"Hey, don't worry 'bout it, I didn't think I'd find someone like me either."
Indeed, the others in his so called Organization weren't really anything like him. Poor boy stuck out like a sore thumb, so it was no wonder he didn't think others with his personality existed.
"I'm glad we bumped into each other too!"
Hrm..now what to do. Head tilting a bit, Demyx thought it over. Maybe...just maybe...
"You um...you like the water right? 'Cause I can do something that's pretty neat."
Grinning widely, the blonde lifted a paw. It'd look rather odd for a moment...at least until some droplets of water had risen from the nearby river and floated over to hover near his paw.

Suyi smiled happily at the other kitsu, nodding and wriggling a bit as his excitement got the better of him.
When that seemingly random question was posed, he perked his ears again and sat up, looking curious. And watched in delighted fascination as the water came to the other, as though obeying a silent command.
Carefully, Suyi got to his feet and came a bit closer, chirping softly. "Is it water bending? One of my father's comes from a tribe that can do things like this..."

One...of his fathers? Demyx wasn't going to question it, but that sure was something to wrap his mind around later.
"I'm not quite sure if that's what it's called...but um, if that's what you know it by feel free to call it that? I just know I can do it..."
He smiled sheepishly, rather embarrased at the lack of knowledge over his own power. Then again, it was something he could always do, and he honestly didn't know if there was a proper name for it.
"It also obeys better with music..."
With that the water Nobody started a soft humming sort of noise. The water before him gently swayed in the air, the droplets shifting into watery music notes as the humming continued.
