Mizuki had all but ignored anything and everything that was said to him even when it came from Thalion. No instead it he played it off as his blank moments even though he heard everything that went on around him. To Mizuki there was nothing to say. Not when one felt as though they couldnt do anything so what was the point in trying?

This thought continued on as he was left alone in the room. The night went on and still Mizuki was alone. Now he was sitting in the windowsill looking out side at the moon. There was so many things that he wanted to do to help but none of them were allowed it would seem.

Mizuki sighed to himself as he brought his knees to his chest before resting his head on them as he looked out the window. His mind was on what Thalion had said...was he really going to kill shimself if he tried to fight?

[Rosekitten]

He continued listening to the conversation gathering whatever details from it. Sure he didn't want Mizuki to fight t to tell him to not to wasn't fair either. But if this tome and whatever else this place seemed to hide was real then it would help Mizuki's magic out a great deal Besides that he needed some way to get back onto talking terms with the other.

He knew that Mizuki was ignoring everyone, even poor Neimi. Neimi had tried everything till she finally gave up. Though he refused to teach Mizuki melee combat for now that didn't mean that he couldn't try to encourage him to further his magic. Really thinking on it a little it might be a good idea for the group as a whole to gather information on weapons and armor before they rushed into the final boss.

Every town he heard some new tale of a group being destroyed or whatever other ungodly tails that were being spread of this unknown creature. So to rush in without knowing more or being well or over prepared might be a bad idea. Besides that from what he knew of games didn't the groups normally have to go through some gear collecting or item collecting process anyway? Even if this was the world they were living in it still seemed to hold a number of game rules.

Getting up finally he said he was going to check on Miuzki. Going to the room the other was staying in he knocked and waited getting no answer as he expected. Going into the room Mizuki seemed to be almost sitting in the same spot he had left him in. After waiting a few moments of getting no response at all he started to get annoyed.

Sure what he said might have been a bit harsh but damn it it was true. There was no way they could fully protect Mizuki if he blanked out in the middle of a fight and was in melee range. It was safer for him to be casting spells. "So your just going to ignore the world for forever is that it? I know damn well when your not actually going through one of those phases."

[Pinkie]

Mizuki was sitting there thinking about what he usually did. He was humming lightly to himself as he did but the moment the knock came to the door he stopped. Mizuki was still sulking to himself was he said nothing even as the door opened and Thalion walked inside the room.

It was not until Thalion said what he did that made him turn his head and look at him. Mizuki knew a fair amount about Thalion. You could hit the male all you wanted but in the end it was words and taunts that got the better of him. So thats What Mizuki did he replied with a smart comment "Why should I?" He asked "Its not like im usefull" He said with a little growl but to Mizuki it was true.

"Even you said so yourself" Mizuki said though when Thalion said he didnt say that Mizuki growled a little with his ears dipping back "You might as well have...saying i cant handle myself that I will get killed" He said in a hiss though it turned to a huff as he stood "But your right...I am useless" Mizuki said with a shrug of his shoulders.

[Rosekitten]

Well he was hardly expecting Mizuki to say anything really, it had been a few days when the other last spoke to anyone other then maybe Luna and that was rare even. "Why should you? What the hell is your problem, is it really that bad that I care enough to not want you on the front of a battle?" He huffed a little. Yep words got the better of him, it was probably that quick temper that made it so easy.

"I never said you were worthless, none of us did yet you refusing to speak to anyone. I know you can handle yourself, I've seen it. But the way your acting its wrong to care enough to not take the chance of you getting killed." Was it wrong hell they had no idea what happened if you were killed. You might be forced back to the other world or you might actually be dead.

"Damn it Mizuki your not useless, thats not what I meant by what I said." He just didn't want to lose him, he had already once nearly twice. If he really did lose him because he gave in to the others wish to know how to melee fight he'd never be able to live that down. "Forgive me for caring, all that stuff we've been talking about and you suddenly fault me for caring."

[Pinkie]

Mizuki growled at that "Oh so its you caring huh" He said looking to him "Such a great time for you to start" He said in a growl "I want to fight I want to do my part and here you are all but standing in my way!" He screamed and took some steps forward closer to Thalion "If you cared you would help me do what I want to do..." Mizuki said in a huff.

Turning his head for a moment he bawled his fists "No...I hardly think you care" He said "Magic can only get me so far and I know you know that...besides that I cant just sit at the back and watch as you fight the front line" Mizuki growled as he turned back to Thalion "Your just asking me to sit back and watch!" He yelled again.

[Rosekitten]

A great time to start? What the heck was that he had cared before, he wasn't just starting because of whatever was wrong with Mizuki. But no matter what he said it seemed that Mizuki was just going to say he was in the way or holding him back or telling him to do nothing. Though now it was if he cared he would help him do what he wanted to do.

Helping him do just that would get him killed if something went wrong. He couldn't protect him if he suddenly stopped mid fight. There would be no way, not without getting himself probably killed in the process. Yet Mizuki seemed convinced that Thalion didn't care. This was probably what tipped it just far enough over the edge to cause that flare of temper to come forth.

Grabbing Mizuki he slammed his back against the wall before holding him there. "No your right I don't care Mizuki. I just nearly got myself killed trying to save you from that raid. I nearly killed myself trying to get you somewhere where you would be safe or could recover." He growled still holding the other against the wall, even more so as he tried to struggle and get away.

"I know magic can only get you so far.. I know this but damn it I'm not asking you to sit back and watch." He still kept the other against the wall as Mizuki seemed to start to say something else but Thalion did know of a way to shut him up before he accused him of anything else.

Kissing him suddenly and holding it for a moment till he was sure that the other would be quite a moment. "I love you Mizuki, I can't lose you again... I'd never be able to live with myself if something happened to you and it was my fault for teaching you. I've already lost you once almost twice as it is."

[Pinkie]

Mizuki was winded the moment his back hit that wall. Taking a moment to gain his breath he stayed as he was. Then he started to struggle. He didnt want to hear what Thalion had to say. No he knew that he was mjust going to counter everything he did say.

When Thalion began to speak again however Mizuki wanted to laugh. Here he was saying that he was not telling him to stay back "Oh yeah right!" Was his retort as he struggled more angry then before.. Just as he was about to say something to Thalion he was cut off by a pair of lips on his own.

It was a little kiss but the fact that it even happened was enough to stop his struggles. That combined with Thalions words made his struggles all but stop as he looked at Thalion "You wont loose me...as long as your with me im with you" He said.

After that there was a little silence as Thalion slacked his grip on Mizuki a little. This was his chance so Mizuki moved his arms and grabbed Thalions face with soft white hands. Bringing the males head in he kissed him once on his lips before he did it again then again. They started out as soft kisses and pecks but turned into one long harsh and passion filled kiss.

Mizuki pressed his chest into that of Thalions as he held the male in place before him. Breaking off for a gasp of air he didnt stop as he leaned in again and kissed him again just the same as the last had ended.

[Rosekitten]

His ears went back listening to the other saying he wouldn't lose him. Though he didn't get the chance to question if that was enough or not. Just them being together didn't mean anything. Either of them could be killed it wasn't like they were immortal or anything. Though the thought was pushed aside as Mizuki placed his hands on his face and pulled him forward again.

Though it seemed that the other wasn't going to stop with just one kiss no he hardly was letting either of them breath as he continued. There was only a slight pause because they did have to breath before Mizuki seemed to go right back to what he was doing.

Finally Thalion had to break the kissing as he rested his head against Mizuki's shoulder still trying to recover his breath. "This isn't-" He started between a pant. "Where I thought this conversation was going." Not to say he minded either, no he hardly minded as he moved a little to kiss Mizuki's neck before biting his earlobe lightly.

He wasn't sure what made him do that but he didn't hardly care. Least for the moment he could breath though he wasn't sure he minded not being able to do that a moment ago either.

[Pinkie]

Mizuki growled lightly before the male pulled back. His breathing was heavy and his eyes were closed as Thalion rested his head on his shoulder. Yes it was true this is not where Mizuki thought this was going either but he could complain anyways "Yeah...I know" He said lightly "I thought it...was going the-" Though he stopped with a little gasp as his ear was bitten.

Mizuki moved his arms now down to rest around a strong neck as he growled a little. Bringing his leg up he brushed it against Thalions hip as he curled a bare foot into the back of the males leg. "Are you complaining" He asked lightly "Did you want to stop?" He asked before he leaned over a little and bit the tip of Thalions ear.

[Rosekitten]

He figured that Mizuki was just going to tease again or that he wasn't recovered enough to go on for too long so the idea never really crossed his mind if it was his choice to stop or not. To tell the truth he didn't want to stop.

Having Mizuki close like this, both of them probably a bit caught up in the moment but still. no he didn't want to stop as the other asked. "No I-" Though he stopped before he could finish his sentence as Mizuki bit the tip of his ear. That was a new sensation to say the least. Right away he knew he had given away what a weakness that seemed to be as he had to bite his lip to keep from actually giving in to letting any noise out.

"Are you sure your ok?" Mizuki was still recovering a little plus with how he had been acting the past few days. He wasn't sure if he should let this go on but he almost couldn't think of forcing this to stop either.

[Pinkie]

Mizuki smiled. So it would seem that Thalions ears was the place to go was it? He would have to remember that for later. Though as Thalion spoke he thought for a moment. Was he sure he wanted to continue and that he was okay to do so... in truth he was tired and sore but he did want this and he didnt want it to end.

Leaning in a little he licked the outer shell of Thalions ear before he whispered "As long as you love me...I will always be okay" He said before kissing the lobe. From there is wa sure movements from both of them.

Later they laid on the bed both breathing heavy but covered with a blanket. Mizuki didnt regret what happened he was happy that it had. Curling into a strong chest he breathed deep "I love you" He said "With everything I am" Mizuki said in a tired tone before he nuzzled his head in under the males neck.

[Rosekitten]

Even after the fact he hardly believed what had happened. He half thought he was going to wake up at any moment and still be in a fight with Mizuki. Though when the other moved against him and spoke he was pretty sure this was real. Smiling a little as he moved to put a arm around the other to keep him close before speaking. "And I love you... that'll never change." Though with that after the other seemed to nuzzle into him more Mizuki seemed to go right to sleep.

Morning came though he wouldn't say quickly. Though after everything that had been going on last night was the best he had slept in a while. Stretching a little he stopped only after noticing Mizuki was still curled up against him. Though whatever energy he had fed off of last night seemed to settle by now as he blushed remembering he had no clothes on. He had stayed this way the whole night?!

Seeing as Mizuki didn't seem to stir too much he shifted just enough to be comfortable again. It seemed almost a shame that he'd have to wake the other. That or Luna would. She had a bad habit of barging in on Mizuki. Especially as of late where he had stopped talking to everyone.

Kissing the others forehead lightly before he moved to look at him with his eyes closed still. It half made him forget that he wanted to all by dart off and get dressed. Though at the moment it was worth it just seeing the other content instead of brooding.

[Pinkie]

After the events that took place sleep came easy to Mizuki and it was dreamless. Even as the sun rose Mizuki slept. He had slept the hardest he had in a long time and his body was trying everything it could to not wake up. It was not until the simple brush of lips on his forehead that his mind let his body wake.


Slowly his breathing became deeper before he gave a light groan and moved his head deeper into the dark chest it rested on. The light soon became apparent but Mizuki didnt want to have anything to do with it. Slowly though he turned his head back and blinked open lavender eyes. With eyes half open he moved his head and looked into the fully awake eyes of Thalion above him.

How long had the male been awake? Not only that but how long was he what Thalion looked at? Mizuki didnt know and nor did he care. All he thought about was he would love to wake to this male every morning.

"Good morning..." He said in a tired just there voice before he moved and placed a kiss under the males chin. From there he gave a little groan as he moved the blankets from himself before moving to sit at the edge of the bed. Stretching he gave a little hiss. He was sore as all hell.

Standing he didnt care that he was completely unclothed as he walked to the bathroom. Moments later he came back out to a fully dressedx Thalion and he frowned a little "Awe...I was hoping for a show" He said with a little pout as he crossed his arms. Mizuki himself had his pants on but his hair was down cascading over his shoulder and down his chest as he tilted his head to look at Thalion.

[Rosekitten]

"Well actually its more of the afternoon but I'll let it slide this time." He was rather surprised Mizuki didn't wake up the few times he was guessing Luna tried to bother the room. Though he had fixed that by locking the door some time before they got too far from the wall. She was going to demand answers for that one knowing her.

After a few moments Mizuki seemed to sit up and stretch, probably trying to wake up still. To be honest Thalion had been awake for maybe a hour or so. But he couldn't bring himself to wake the other. Still probably getting over the fact of what took place last night and that for once it wasn't some dream from allowing his mind to wander that far.

Though after Mizuki got up and walked into the other room was when he stole his chance to get his clothes on. He had no real reason to hate showing skin really, except maybe to save questions on where scars came from but aside from that it wasn't like he had anything to hide. Even in the summer time he was known to wear a long sleeve shirt, though given where he grew up maybe that was just from habit.

"A show huh?" He heard Mizuki pout as he walked out of the bathroom. "I'll work on that for next time. Well if there is a next time." He said before walking towards the door and unlocking it probably giving Mizuki a hint that a certain dragonkin was going to be livid. "Besides I'm hardly show worthy material, that or the sun has done more damage to your eyes then good."

[Pinkie]

Mizuki huffed at that as he walked over to Thalion "You are so show worthy" He said before he tilted his head and looked at him "Your beautiful to me Thalion...and one day I make you believe it" He said before leaning in and kissing the male softly before backing up and going to get dressed.

"And what do you mean by if?" Mizuki asked as he looked to Thalion now fully dressed in his robes. Sitting on the end of the bed Mizuki began to go through his hair and soon began to braid it "I mean..." Mizuki said though paused "There will be a next time...right?" He asked Thalion though the male didnt get to answer as the door opened.

Mizuki sighed looking at a glaring pissed off Luna "You know how to knock right?" Mizuki asked her with a little glar but the female crossed her arms "Yes and you know that your still recovering and shouldnt be doing such things with the drow?" She asked in a growl. Luna wasnt stupid. She had tried through out the night to get to see Mizuki but every time the door was locked. Not only that but she could smell it in the room. Thats one thing she hated about being a dragonkin.

"It should not concern you" He said as he finished his braid and stood "Yes it does concern me" She said with a glare but Mizuki matched it with one of his own "How do you figure?" He asked taking a step towards the female. Mizuki and Luna were like brother and sister and they fought like it as well. Though it was a scary seen when both glares could make ice shiver. "Remember how we met Mizuki?" Luna asked with a tilt of her head and Mizukis glare grew colder if it could.

Bawled fists at his sides misted as his natrual defense kicked in and ice began to form on his hands. Mizuki was pissed "You promised" He said in a low angry tone trying not to yell. Luna bent over a little and looked at him "So did you...or have you forgotten and need a reminder?" She said with a tilt of her head. "That does not give you the right to decide my future for the rest of my life" He said not backing down.

This was when Luna stood tall. Closing her eyes she turned around and went to leave the room though she paused to speak "Think about this Mizuki the next time this piece of shit hurts you" She said glaring at Thalion on her way out. Dragon kin were knowen to hold strong grudges and for decades.

[Rosekitten]

He half laughed a little listening to Mizuki. "Maybe someday." It did make the other thought come back if things were better just staying this way. If things went back to normal what would happen? Though he didn't want to ruin the mood today seemed to be in by having such doubting questions and concerns.

He was about to open his mouth to answer Mizuki when Luna all but barged into the room. Her temper already apparent from the scowl she gave walking a few steps past Thalion as she started to address Mizuki. He had a name damn it and she knew it. He was half tempted to start calling her a lizard if she wanted to keep using what race he was as a insult.

Watching the two he knew something else was going on here, probably something he wasn't going to get out of Mizuki if the other didn't wish to say it but either way they were both ticked. Though to be honest he didn't know what was going on between them two. How could he? Mizuki didn't really speak too much of what he had been through during the eight years other then the homeless part and meeting Luna. Details were skipped.

Though her mentioning how they met seemed to piss Mizuki off all the more. Though she hardly seemed done there as she kept her glare and said some final words to him before switching her glare towards Thalion and leaving the room. With that final bit Thalion's ears went back a little to prove he was annoyed to say the least.

"Take it i'm not getting answers about what that was about... " He knew he wasn't by how Mizuki was still, it was a waste of breath to pester the other to get information he did not wish to share. "fine.." He finally said breathing out a little before leaning against the wall to keep himself from walking after that damned woman and giving her his five cents on things. Not that it would do any good but one day he swore he was going to have to fight her if this kept up.

"Tsk..." Was all he said as he went over a few of his own thoughts, did she have to bring up the past? He had paid for his mistakes back then, some in blood even. Just as Mizuki didn't talk about the eight years he was missing Thalion never really gave details on everything he had gone through trying to locate the other. But it seemed that past would always be there to nag at him, let alone it didn't help that Luna seemed to hate him no matter what he tried to do.

Finally he gave up on trying to think about it, he needed to accept that things weren't going to be easy and that was final. "Oh.. I heard some news yesterday I never got to tell you." This went on to him explaining about the tomb and where it was suppose to be. "Though it seems whatever trials or beast is guarding the place has been taking care of groups almost as easily as the end boss." Sure it was changing the subject but he didn't want to ruin today just because of some past secrets.
