[DarkForbidden-Love]

(The Naming is in no way a small book)

Dark blinked at Alexander's request, "A book on cell multiplication that occurs with the zygote?" Dark walked back over to the bookself and put The Naming back. "I don't think I have one..." Dark trailed off suddenly getting an idea. "I have a part of an older science book I can read out loud, if you would like." It had been on his computer since he had gotten his diploma. "A fellowclassmate gave it to me as a gag gift." Dark sat down at his computer then and pulled up a set of electronic documents,
"Here is a part about it, 'Biologically speaking, fertilization (or conception) is the beginning of human development. Fertilization normally occurs within several hours of ovulation, when a man’s sperm, or spermatozoon, combines with a woman’s egg, or secondary oocyte, inside a woman’s uterine tube, usually in the outer third of the uterine tube called the ampulla.

Fertilization begins with the spermatozoon contacting the cells surrounding the oocyte and ends with the mixing of the 23 male and 23 female chromosomes. The result is a single-cell embryo called a zygote, meaning 'yoked or joined together,' and it is the first cell of the human body.

The zygote, like the oocyte, is encased by its protective covering, the zona pellucida, and contains 46 unique chromosomes with the entire genetic blueprint of a new individual. Chromosomes contain tightly packed, tightly coiled molecules called DNA. Amazingly, DNA contains all the instructions needed for this single-cell embryo to develop into an adult.

The First Cell Division
The final steps in zygote formation include replication of the male and female DNA and the alignment of chromosomes in preparation for the first cell division through mitosis. The chromosomes assume a formation called a cleavage spindle, which is a phase of mitosis.

As the 2 sets of chromosomes migrate to opposite ends of the zygote, a crease begins to form along the equator marking the impending line of division. The zygote or single-cell embryo completes the first cell division approximately 24 to 30 hours after fertilization. The process of repeated cell division is called cleavage'."
Dark was highly embassed about reading that out loud but he was not sure how the computer would react to Alexander. Dark took a quick look at the book self which now contained a mostly empty book.

he sat there and listened. it was not filling in the way eating the words had been but it did mostly explain what the other book had started to explain. 'ah, thankyou. that is better. you must read to me from now on' he come over to where the other was sitting and sat on the floor, leaning his head on the other's thigh he said 'this feels so strange. i don't understand.' he tilted his head back and looked up at the other.

[DarkForbidden-Love]

Dark agreed with Alexander's first statement, he did not want any more of his book's words disappearinfgbut the second statement through him for a loop. "What feeling don't you understand?" Dark asked then relized how stupid that question was, "I mean, can you dicribe this feeling? Maybe I know what it is."

[littl3chocobo]

he paused as if he was divulging a secret 'i...feel empty, it is so quiet here, i can't feel anything. the book was warm and full, i was surrounded by it, here all of the warmth is gone, it is quiet here.' he began to ramble 'even now, i can feel something from you, from touching you, but it is small and nowhere else has any feeling at all. i want to stay here with you but i feel so naked here' he buried his face back in dark's thigh, he did not know how to explain that he could feel no magic in this world, he could not explain how alien it felt to him to not be wrapped so fully in it.

[DarkForbidden-Love]

Dark blinked at Alexander's explanation, "You can probably feel the wishes that the book creates." Dark said thinking his responce through. "Here on earth, we don't use magic or wishes." Dark was not sure which catagory the book and its power fell under, "We aren't connected to our world like you are to yours, we can't feel it or connect with it. So our world might have been like yours at some time but lack of communication killed it before my time." Dark wondered where he was getting this from, it sounded crazy to his own ears. "So our world is dead in a sense while yours is alive. Ours can't chenge itself because so many people made themselves work for everything."

[littl3chocobo]

he listened intently to the other, a small frown on his face. 'how terrible' he mumbled into the boy's leg. he got to his knees and angled himself to look at the other, turning the swily chair he put his hands to either side of it and looked up at the other. 'what can we do?'

[DarkForbidden-Love]

Dark was lost and voiced his thoughts, "I don't know I've never reawakened a world before." That was true, he had not even relized the world's could be alive until he had stumbled into Alexander's. "And it might've been to long since anyone tried to contact earth that she might have forgotten how to talk with us; just as we have forgotten how to talk with her."

[littl3chocobo]

he sighed his disappointment, a pregnant whoosh of unasked, unaskable now, questions. he dropped his head into the others lap and taking his hands from the chair and threading them together around dark's back. he stayed in that position for several minutes. he sighed and still buried in the others legs he said into the fabric 'then all i have now is you'

[DarkForbidden-Love]

Dark felt sadness with Alexander, Alexander was used to a living world and humans had created a dead one from lack of care. DArk suddenly fell out of his musings as Alexander buried his head in Darks legs. The situation was forign to Dark but not entirely unwelcomed. "I know of a place that might feel more unlive then most of the world," Dark said suddenly remembering the place he had visted as a child. "It is further in the forest and it always provided for me whatever I needed." Dark remembered the place well, it was a clearing that was lined by brambles and current bushes. It also had a waterfall coming from the shear rock wall.

[littl3chocobo]

'could we go today?' he asked looking up and staring hopefully out the darkening window. 'or must the witching hour pass?' he yawned.

[DarkForbidden-Love]

"Witching Hour?" Dark asked, "What is that?" Then he remembered the faries that had chased him and Alexander. "Nevermind, I think I remember and earth doesn't have a witching hour. But yu shouldn't go into the forest at night, lest you wake something that desides you make a tasty snack."

[littl3chocobo]

he looked plaintively out the windowed, yawned then looked again. he went back to his earlier position of face-down in the others lap. he was not please with this turn of events but the other was comforting in his own way, the flicker of his world still rested within this beautiful soul. he was however at a loss, he was frustrated, bored, lonely, his head hurt and he was tired. he untangled his fingers and stuck them up the back of dark's shirt.he ran his fingers up and down the boy's spine.

[DarkForbidden-Love]

Dark shivered at Alexander's touch and tried to distract himself. "Would you... like to have diner... or um... go to bed?" Dark found that ALexander's actions where very distracting making it hard to form much along the path of coherant speach.

[littl3chocobo]

he stopped what he was doing and looked back up, 'what is wrong?'

[DarkForbidden-Love]

Dark smiled at Alexander and made up a exuse that sounded fake to his own ears, "Your hands were cold and they surprised me." He could literally hear the lie fall over and die.

[littl3chocobo]

'i see' he took his hands away. 'i think, i would like this chapter to not end so soon, we should eat.' he pretended he did not see relief in the others' eyes, since he did not know what the boy had to be relieved about he had no reason to assume it was an error on his part. he rose to his feet and took dark's hand, it was a question as much as it was an offer to help
