"Oh, nononono... I want to see her happy. I think she sort of misinterpreted her own actions. I saw her batting her eyes at you. She was definitely flirting, but she just might not have realized it herself until she remembered her normal, closed behavior... I don't think you should cut back on the flirting, this could be good for her... I can try teaching you how to write some words in Sphirinian so you two can talk when Vorim and I aren't there."

[b][i]He smiles at her comments as he looks up. Thinking to himself of what to say as he looks over to sketch.[/i][/b] "She's never happy huh....I don't know last night seemed kinda nice. Although I also just loved being around her." [b][i]He turns back to her booping her nose gently with his hand. Thinking to himself as he blinks realizing something.[/i][/b] "You know I have never eaten salmon...huh....but I'm sure anything I have with you will be perfect. Especially if you make it but that's because I enjoy doing everything with you."
-
*Sketch shakes his head, smiling.* "Okay, buddy... Now you're just obsessed with her. We may be trying to get you two together but that's a little much for a few hours." *Sapphire just glares at him when he boops her nose. Sketch writes some of what Axel said down and she reads it.* [u]I'm not a good cook but salmon is delicious. Let's go.[/u] *She walks out of the cave, off in the direction of the Dojo. Sketch and Vorim follow close behind.*
-
"Oh am I....I'm sorry...I've never met someone I've felt like this for...I mean uh....I just want to seem caring.." [b][i]His ears and tail drooped as he says this looking extremely sad. His eyes gazing down as he looks at the ground. [/i][/b] "Sorry....and I bet it would taste awesome."
-
"Oh, don't worry!" *Says Sketch, chuckling a little.* "I didn't tell her all of that... If I had then there's a good chance she would have dropped you..."
-
"Wait does she not like that kind of stuff? She seemed to enjoy it last night..... Man I'm bad at this.." [b][i]He says as he turns in her arms, dislodging himself as he begins walking on his own. The color still missing some what but he wasn't clutching his head. With a sigh he turns back with a weak smile on his face.[/i][/b] "I still got a lot to learn it seems." [b][i]Turning back without another word he moves forward the snow crunching under his feet. He was no longer shivering either as if the cold weather was being ignored.[/i][/b]
-
"She suppresses most of her emotions. She just sees them as a weakness. There's always this crap about how men can't cry and they gotta be tough blah blah blah. Well, when you're a woman in a militarily that consists mainly of men, then you're going to be expected to be more emotional than men. Because of all that, she decided to start treating it as a weakness. She likes you still, but she just can't really show it without you working for it..." [u]Hey, I'm either carrying you or we're wearing the same coat, but I won't let you walk on your own like this, cold or not.[/u] "See?"
-
[b][i]He sighs as his rune changes shape to the first symbol the saw before. The snow hissing as it melted around him, his body now seeming to produce a massive amount of heat. Before even touching the snow it would melt around him his eyes gazing forward as he shook his head. The power hurt a little but he wouldn't show it.[/i][/b] "I don't want to be a burden I'll be fine on my own for now." [b][i]He says as he moves forward without them in the direction they were showing. Small flickers of flames coming off his hands and tail as he did. His emotions currently were well hidden. He could be upset, sad, hurt, mad, no one could tel it was like when they first met. He was seeming to slowly close up again.[/i][/b]
-
*Sapphire read what Sketch wrote and something seemed to click again. She suddenly hugs him, ignoring the flames starting to burn through her coat.* [u]You aren't fine on your own.[/u]
-
[b][i]He paused as the flames died down, looking back at her as he looks forward. Thinking to himself as he does so unsure of what to do or say at this point. Although he doesn't break the hug and he doesn't move away from her. He seems just lost in thought, his eyes staring at the ground as he sighs.[/i][/b] "You get used to it when you live alone most of your life." [b][i]He says quietly looking back to the dojo. Right now he was unsure of how to feel or how to act. This was the first person he...was falling for? But was it that or was it something less....he couldn't tell as he never had these emotions.[/i][/b]
-
*She reads what he said.* "Oh, shut up. You aren't going to live alone for the rest of your life. Now let's get you back to my apartment so I can make you some salmon!" *She picks him up again, flopping him over her shoulder. There was no way he could escape from her now.*
-
[b][i]He sighs as he accepts this looking too the two behind her. Looking back to her then them as he pauses. [/i][/b] "Don't tell her this....but I can kind of turn to dust and move to other spots with this magic...so I can get out..." [b][i]He shrugs as he sighs thinking about things. It had seemed like he wanted to do a lot of it. Closing his eyes as he tilts his head thinking he pauses.[/i][/b] "So...what's your guys apartments like?"
-
"Hey, come on. If you turn to dust just to get away then she'll think you really do want to get away from her." [u]Th-They have three rooms... Living room/k-kitchen, b-bedroom, bathroom.[/u]
-
[b][i]He smiles as he listens to the description happily looking back to sketch. Scratching the back of his head as he does so thinking to himself.[/i][/b] "I would turn to dust and leave her sketch....to tell you the truth I haven't ever kissed, snuggled, heck....slept next to someone before yesterday....I feel like I'm falling for her at a great speed and I'm a little worried I'm gonna break on the landing." [b][i]He blushes as he nuzzles his head against her neck happily. Pausing as he does so to look back to them.[/i][/b]
-
"You guys are falling pretty fast... But it will either work out for you guys or not... I'm sincerely hoping you guys really do work out though... My theory that she just needs a boyfriend to help her out of her she'll is already being proven true."
-
"Are we falling too fast though? I mean I don't want to rush her into anything and I..." [b][i]He pauses as he turns hiding himself kissing her neck. Turning back to them as he looks back with a smile.[/i][/b] "So uh....hm...you really think she likes me? I mean the snuggling and....kissing and stuff was fun..." [b][i]He blinks as he realizes he talked about the kissing. Looking back at them with an embarrassed expression.[/i][/b] "Don't tell her I talked about that..."
-
"Hey, I think you're fine... It is a little fast though, you should know exactly what you're getting into with her." *He writes something down and shows it to her. She nods in agreement.* "Okay, she'll tell you everything she thinks is important over dinner. If you're falling fast then you need to learn fast to keep up."
-
"I mean that sounds fair, teach me how to write and I'll keep up. I'm not going to just half ass his and hurt her I'll give it my all." [b][i]He looked serious as he turned back to her. Patting her back as he turns to Vorim with a smile waving his hand.[/i][/b] "Also Vorim I hope we can talk more maybe get to know each other more."

Edited by Skatch142: 10/13/2016 4:59:26 AM"Oh, she knows she won't be able to hear back tonight. Use your hour to do the same for her when you are able to do it again. I'll teach you some Sphirinian a couple days from now..." *Vorim nods in agreement with Axel.*
-
"She will be able to hear tonight....at least for dinner but that's the best I can do..." [b][i]He Says as he thinks to himself debating the consequences. However shrugging as he deemed it wouldn't be to bad looking back to the three.[/i][/b] "The old effects from the last one have worn off so I should be good to do so as long as I don't fall asleep again." [b][i]He blushes scratching the back of his head as he looks back. A smile on his face as he thinks about a date with her.[/i][/b]
-
"Are you sure you'll be fine? I don't want to risk anything happening to you and I highly doubt Sapphire would either."
-
"I promise nothing bad will happen to me. I wouldn't let my first date with her end tragically or sadly with me being stupid. I want it to be happy and fun." [b][i]He says as he smiles at them and he seems to just hang there giving up on being let down.[/i][/b] "But that's me and we will see how it goes when we get there."
-
"Yeah... Don't worry, from how well you've done with her I'd say you're fine."
-
[b][i]He smiles as he dangles there watching the ground as he closed his eyes drifting off to sleep. He must have not gotten much sleep as he was out cold.[/i][/b] [spoiler]time skip or o:[/spoiler]
-
*Eventually they reached the Dojo. Sapphire silently walked into the apartment complex and entered her apartment. She carefully sets Axel down on the couch, kissing him on the forehead.*
-
[b][i]He looks at her bringing her head down as he kisses her lips deeply. A smile on his face as the same mist appears again offering itself to her as he smiles. Looking into her eyes and nodding to show it was okay and good to go.[/i][/b]
