--- LUDE-O STAAAAARTO! --- >> After the events of the day, Mitsuo has been keeping to himself at the stern of the boat, keeping quiet and watching the little automaton whirr his way curiously around the boat. It's not hard, however, to miss the loud cry of "YES! Yesyesyesyes!" that reverberates around the ship, and not long after Erellisae practically skips up and sits next to him, looking smug and satisfied. * Mitsuo blinks, and turns to Erel, "Hey there! I hear you sneak up...well, not until the 'yesyesyes!' part. ^_-" * Erellisae grins toothily, her fang showing as she almost starts giggling all over again. "Uhm, sorry. Just a bit of good news." ^_^ Good news? * Erellisae waggles a finger at Mitsuo, still grinning, before watching Spud and holding out a finger to the robot. "Wellll... I may've just seen a certain huntress and crabguy liplocking in the galley." ^_~ She breaks out into happy giggles /again/ as the little automaton settles onto her finger, spinning slightly. * Mitsuo blinks again, then breaks out into a grin himself, "Reallllly?" * Erellisae snickers, watching Spud gently spin and beep. "Heehee... I finally managed to push them together a little. Catching them was just happy coincidence when I was trying to find you." ^^ * Mitsuo smiles, "I'm glad....I mean, they seem to really like each other and...er, you were looking for me? O_o" * Erellisae waggles her finger at Mitsuo again, looking rather comical as she waves the tarnished bronze robot at Mitsuo. "Of course! I know you too well, and I bet you're thinking too much about... back at that island!" ^^ * Spud bips slightly, bobbing woozily into the air and looking rather dizzy from the shaking. o_@ * Mitsuo taps his fingers against the side of the ship, looking serious a moment at the accusation, but then breaks into a goofy smile at Spud's antics, "You'd be right...I guess I can't help...Thinking about it. Just a little." * Erellisae nods slightly, drawing her knees up and hugging them as she shifts slightly towards Mitsuo, glancing at Mitsuo. "Hey... like you said, it wasn't us. Besides, we're all still here." Oh, I know that. It's just... * Mitsuo coughs, not quite sure how to say what's on his mind. * Erellisae blinks, and looks up from watching Spud happily roll back and forth across the deck from the slight tilt of the waves. "Huh? Just what?" Well...Emmitt has really hurt you twice. I mean, not physically or anything, but...He just keeps picking on you. And I can't really do anything to stop it, you know? You're my friend, and I don't want to see you hurt. * Erellisae shakes her head slightly, grinning faintly. "Oh, don't worry. He'll pay, all right. But... I'm okay. I'm not made of glass... and I'll get hurt sometimes, we all will... did." Yeah, I know you're strong, Erel. It's just...you know. Instinct. Friends protect each other, right? :) * Erellisae smiles faintly across at Mitsuo, a blush tinging her cheeks as she murmurs slightly wistfully. "And get kissed for their efforts from time to time." She blinks suddenly, shaking her head. "Uhm. Remind me to throw Feray off the boat sometime." ^^;; * Mitsuo blinkblinkblinks. Ahem...er...*^^* * Mitsuo looks back at the waves VERY quickly. * Erellisae hugs her knees closely, looking downwards to hide in her hair and turning an interesting shade of red, but taking the opportunity to shuffle closer. "Still... thanks. You've really helped me out, y'know..." I did? O_o * Erellisae blinks and looks disbelievingly at Mitsuo for a moment, before counting off on her fingers. "Uhm. Homesickness. Lumian-ness. The date with Emmitt. Feray. Breaking down in your arms..." she replies, blushing slightly again. Ah, that. ^^; Well, I'd do it again in a heartbeat...I mean... . o O ( Gah, why is it so hard to talk to her all of a sudden? O_o ) * Erellisae smiles faintly, hiding under her hair again and speaking quietly. "Do it again or not... doesn't mean I didn't need it. Or that it wasn't helping me out." ^^ I'm glad it helped, really glad. [03:33:24] * Mitsuo hums, leaning against the the rail of the ship a bit, "Are you ready to um...hum, how to phrase this...cook some fish later on? I mean the giant soul sucking guppy, of course. ;)" * Erellisae sighs faintly, shrugging just slightly. "I... guess. I'm about as ready as I'll ever be, although I need a short while just to sort everything from that island out..." ^^; We'll do fine...I mean, we have to! * Spud chirrups faintly at that, mid-roll towards the front of the ship. * Erellisae nods, grinning faintly, biting her lip with her fang. "I'm sure we will. Just... my mind's kind of everywhere right now." ^^; You're not the only one with that problem... * Erellisae eyes Mitsuo in silence for a short while before suddenly shuffling close, putting an arm around his shoulders and grinning fangily. "C'mon! Tell Aunty Erel what's wrong! No job too big, no huntress too unpersuadeable and no icarian too mopey!" Ack! It's just...well...we're fighting something tomorrow that may suck out our souls...Jalanda was acting all weird earlier today, I still don't really know anything about myself...and uh...I'm hungry? ^^; * Erellisae holds up a finger, about to say something, then pauses, eying the door below-decks. "I... uhm... wouldn't go near the kitchen for a while..." ...Why? Did Jake make dinner? ;) * Erellisae shakes her head and rallies. "But as for the other bits! Don't worry, okay? We... have a direction to go in, now. Maybe the Lumian Town... Tressalna... maybe we'll find something there." I hope so. For everybody's sake, really. * Erellisae blinks at Mitsuo, then snickers, leaning conspiratorially across. "As for the kitchen, well... Feray and Nathan, uhm, 'cooking'." She moves back, nodnodnodding with a huge toothy grin on her face. ..Oh. OH. O_O ...We'd best not disturb them as they...mix ingredients, huh? ;) Wouldn't want to...spoil the broth? ;) * Erellisae bursts into giggles, bapping Mitsuo lightly on the arm. "Jeez! I just meant kissing! C'mon, I'm gonna haveta eat there later!" ^_~ Oh, just kissing, or are they stirring the batter! ;) * Mitsuo ows and shuts up. ;) * Erellisae sobers, putting the arm back round Mitsuo's shoulders and hugging him lightly. "Don't worry, okay? Looks like we've both got a lot to learn about ourselves... we'll get there. I promise." ^^ Well...sounds good to me. ^^; S'long as we get there. * Erellisae nods, looking behind them at the receding shape of the strange island. "... weeks to the southwest... hope that's precise enough. Still, we can always play follow-the-Liete, right?" ^^; Right...and in the meantime we can amuse ourselves with ship games such as swabbin' the deck and blackjack. ^_- ...after we beat the death fish, of course. ^_- * Erellisae nods, looking back at Mitsuo, smiling slightly. "We'll do fine. We've got the harp, we've got all of us together, we've got everything we nee--", she blinks, as Spud goes rolling past, "--d... including cute little Lumian automatons." ^^; And cuddly carros. And fluffy puffies. ...We got a lot of pets, now that I think about it. o_o * Erellisae holds out a hand for the little robot to perch on, eying it skeptically. "... I dunno. Maybe Spud'll turn out to be a legendary weapon we can use to stop anything in our way?" * Spud bips, bouncing in Erel's hands lightly and looking anything /but/ an ancient death laser ray. ^_^ But...but...he's too cute! * Erellisae giggles faintly, releasing Spud and setting back, leaning slightly on Mitsuo's shoulder and sounding vaguely wistful. "We're a strange group, huh? Lumians and Icarians and Robots, oh my..." Least it's not lions, and tigers, and uh... * Mitsuo tries to think of something really, really bad. ...puppies? Er, no. How about annoying pretty-boy bards? Yes, that works. ^_- * Erellisae giggles, then sobers slightly, her tattoos flaring gently. "... mmph. Made me kiss him /again/..." --; Well, he won't do it a second time. Hopefully. ^^; * Erellisae glowers at the deck, shaking her head. "... I hope not. I hated it... seeing myself lunging at you, daggers drawn... then... waltzing up to him..." Well...Remember what I said? * Erellisae nods, glancing across at Mitsuo again, lopsided smile on her face. "I'm trying. Still makes me so mad, though... not to /mention/ the fact I prefer /choosing/ who I kiss." ^^; I also prefer not trying to kill the people I care about. At least Emmitt can't do that to us again, as long as we've got the harp. * Erellisae nods, looking contemplative. "Maybe... once we've taken out the fish... we should return it here. I don't want to... it's the first Lumian thing we've come across... but it's so powerful..." :/ That might be a wise idea... * Erellisae sighs slightly, leaning her head on Mitsuo's shoulder. "... 's gonna take me a good while to forgive myself for trying to hurt you, though..." No need. I mean...I'm not angry at anyone. It was something no one could control. We weren't ourselves. * Erellisae eyes Mitsuo a little owlishly. "... you looked pretty angry at yourself, back there... you okay?" * Mitsuo makes a face, "Well, even though I know it was no one's fault, I'm still pretty mad I couldn't stop Emmitt." * Erellisae nods, grinning slightly. "We'll get 'im next time, I'm sure." Yeah, that we will. I'm sure. :) * Erellisae nods, before lapsing into silence, leaning against Mitsuo slightly, a blush spreading across her cheeks as she watches the deck. ...Erel? * Mitsuo blinks-blinks, noticing she's gone very quiet. You okay? * Erellisae blinks, looking up suddenly at the sound of Mitsuo's voice, jumping slightly, blush still on her cheeks. "O-oh! Sorry... just thinking about something sis said earlier." ^^; ...Can I ask what that is, or is it private? * Erellisae looks rather flustered for a moment, blush deepening rather. "U-uhm.... w-well... she was... teasing about us two." ^^; ...Oh? *^^* * Erellisae grins to herself, shaking her head slightly. "Man, she knows all of my weak points... should take my own advice, though...", she mutters to herself, before glancing up at Mitsuo and leaning close to give him a kiss on the cheek, then pulling back with a faintly satisfied look on her face. o_o * Mitsuo goes almost stick straight in shock almost. ^^; He's blushing a dark crimson. ^^; . o O ( She did it again she kiss bahahghuh... o_o ) * Erellisae can't help but giggle somewhat, a blush creeping across her face in return. Ahem...we....well...um...^^; * Erellisae snickers, hugging Mitsuo's arm a little. "Eep! I've broken Mitsuo!" Er...I mean..No! No, I'm just fine! ^^; * Erellisae giggles again. "Well, it /does/ seem to be a tradition to kiss you after someone else kisses me. (m) Can't say I mind much..." she murmurs, blush deepening as she looks down. No...you didn't do anything wrong! It just...sorta surprised me... * Erellisae waggles a finger at Mitsuo, grinning. "Well, you'll just have to get used to it if you keep acting so concerned and caring about people!" Guess I better get used to being kissed then. ^_- * Erellisae grins triumphantly, and nods decisively. "You better! After all... I got kissed by other people twice today." ^_~ So saying, Erellisae leans in again to give Mitsuo a tender kiss on the lips, then pulls back, still hugging his arm and giggling to herself. * Mitsuo returns the kiss, still shocked again (It's quite apparent he's not really used to girls. ;) ), and blushes again. ^^; * Erellisae snuggles against Mitsuo's arm slightly, "Mmm. Good pillow.", before giggling again, looking up. "Oh my, it must be all the rage today. Whoever next? Cassidy and Jake? Dylan and Jalanda? ... Spud and Dill?" ^_~ * Mitsuo breaks out of his shocked stupor by thinking about the random combos of 'couples', and bursts out laughing! ^^; * Erellisae grins, pulling back a little. "Speaking of which, I think we need to matchmake the first pair." ^_~ But...aren't they...in the kitchen? ^^; * Erellisae eyes Mitsuo skeptically, big grin on her face. "I get the feeling Nathan and sis won't be letting anyone else in there for a while. Especially after my shouts." ^^; Heh! Ah, so you're saying after they come out, we play matchmaker?^ ^; * Erellisae hmms, pondering and giggling as she does. "I dunno if we need to... they were playing matchmaker pretty well themselves by the looks of it..." ^_~ Ah, so you mean the other couple then. ^^; ....Or possible couple...or...ah... * Mitsuo rubs his head, looking flustered still. ^^: * Erellisae blinkblinks, laying a hand on Mitsuo's forehead. "Oh, wow, I think I /did/ break you!" ^_~ Er...I'm fine! Really! ^^; * Erellisae giggles again, before blinking, ears twitching as she catches a whiff of the food cooking below, before they droop as she makes a faint whine. "Oh maaan, that smells good... wanna come with me and tease Feray?" ^_~ Heh! Sure, why not? ^_- * Erellisae grins, standing up and tugging Mitsuo to his feet, still practically clinging to his arm. ^_^ * Mitsuo is quite tugged, and chuckles, leading Erel down to the kitchen. ^^; . o O ( Agh, this sucks! I want to say so much, but I'm here stuttering like a DORK! --; ) * Erellisae comically darts from side to side of the galley doorway, trying to see round cracks and listen for any noises from within. Finally, she pushes upon the door with one hand, calling out a "Hi, sis!" to the room. ^_^ * Feray is actually nowhere to be seen at first when they enter the kitchen. What they do see, however, is an amusing clutter that Erel can swear wasn't there when she left. The sitting stool is on its side on the floor, most forks and knives are on the floor, two of the cupboard doors are swinging wide....quite a mess. The meal is, however, sitting simmering on the stove. Feray's apron lays on the ground. * Erellisae bliiinks, clinging to Mitsuo's arm. "... wow. When Feray kisses, she, uh, kisses." ^^;; Erellisae looks... thoughtful at that. Geez...O_o It must have been good, whatever they did... * Feray suddenly emerges from a side cubby, some of her hair sticking out. She's got this dazed grin on her lips. She stumbles a bit, not seeing Erel or Mits at first...she leans against the counter. ...oh wow.... * Erellisae blinks. Blinks again. * Erellisae bursts into giggles, leaning against Mitsuo. * Feray wideyes a bit and jerks her head to the side so fast she /topples/ over! Ack!! * Feray falls to the ground with a squeak! * Mitsuo snorts, trying to hide his laughter. ^^; * Erellisae leans against Mitsuo's side heavily for support, giggling madly and eying Feray with a wide grin. Good day to you, Miss Feray. ^_- * Feray sits on the floor for a moment, her face hid by a curtain of blue hair. She finally clears her throat. "Uhhh....h-hello." * Erellisae detaches from Mitsuo, walking over and offering a hand up. "So how's the cooking going?" ^_~ * Feray eyes the hand from behind the blue curtain before accepting, pulling herself to her feet. Erellisae catches a faint glimpse a -bite- mark on the top of Feray's ear. The huntress shifts a bit. "Good! Good! Uh, hey, it's ready!" * Feray hurries quickly over to the stove. Do you want some? Here! * Mitsuo raises an eyebrow. ^^: * Feray hurriedly begins to shovel some onto a plate ^^; * Feray pauses and glances at Mitsuo, not able to look at Erel, the blush still evident. "Uhm." ...did....did you guys happen to see Nate on your way here? ^^;; * Erellisae practically collapses into giggles again, just about making it to a chair and eying Feray with a mischievous glint in her eyes. "So, was, I mean, is it nice and hot?" ^_~ * Feray wideyes at Erel's words and fumbles with the pan, nearly getting the interesting meat mixture down her top. She hurriedly shoves a somewhat full plate to Erel before realizing all the cutlery is on the -floor-. She blushes more. * Feray idly kicks a fork off the floor with her foot, catches it, and hands it to her little sister. * Mitsuo bites his lip, trying to laugh, "Er...I'd love some. ^^" We didn't see Nate though, sorry. :/ * Erellisae grins, and accepts the fork, that glint still in her eyes. It's pretty damn obvious her eyes are shining with happiness too, however. ^^ "We didn't. Musta just missed him." * Feray shovels more food onto another plate, doing the same fork trick, and hands it to Mitsuo. ^^; * Feray shuffles her feet at that and eyes Erel and Mitsuo. "Just wondering, that's all." She backs her ears. ^^; We'll let you know if we see him. :) * Erellisae practically starts /inhaling/ the food, mmming happily. "Oh mannnn, I could smell this from deck--huh? Wassat?" She points at the still-discarded apron. Oh, yeah, of course! He...I mean...uh.. I must've fallen asleep in the back ther--..? Hunh? * Erellisae slides off her chair, going to snag the apron and take a look. "The apron. A message on it'r somethin'..." * Feray furrows her brow and takes a few steps towards Erel. ^^; * Erellisae's ears twitch slightly, before she giggles madly and 'folds' the apron, handing it to Feray then returning to her seat. "It's for you." ^_~ Oooh. ^_- * Erellisae grins again, then eyes Mitsuo slightly worriedly. "... you okay? You've been kinda quiet since I, uhm..." * Feray blinks a bit and takes the note that was pinned the apron as well as the apron itself...she reads the note quickly, pausing. A warm grin lights her face. * Feray goes off into space for a moment, giving the two lovebirds privacy. ;) She seems to be studying the note intently. >D Erhm...well... ^^; * Mitsuo looks down at his plate. Since I'm starving and all...I suppose we should try it. ^_- * Erellisae looks skeptically at Mitsuo for a moment, waggling a finger at him. "That's not an answer to my question... but agreed. I'm starrrrved..." She starts digging in, sparing a glance at Feray's reverie and giggling faintly. * Mitsuo digs into his food as well, noting that it really does taste pretty damn good. ^^ * Feray utters a happy sigh, leaning back against the counter. She runs a fingertip over the note before wide-eyeing. She scowls! Ugh, cripes. * Feray furrows her brow and tucks the note hurriedly into her top ^^; * Feray turns and eyes the two. "How is it?" Really good. ^_^ * Erellisae mutters, "mrfleerf!". Judging by the way she's eating, that means something good. ^^; Really? Great! It's all I really know how to make.. ^^; * Feray trails off and eyes Mitsuo. * Mitsuo notices he's being eyed, "What?" ^^: I want to apologize for what happened.. Apologize? You mean for what Emmitt did? * Feray rubs her neck a bit and grimaces. "You know. With Emmitt, yeah." It wasn't really us. * Erellisae blinks, looking up and swallowing her current bite, sobering as she does. I don't blame you at all. I blame Emmitt. And Emmitt did everything of his own will. He's just a greedy, perverted guy. I'm sorry I couldn't pop him in the jaw! ^^; * Feray snorts softly. * Mitsuo pantomimes popping someone in the jaw, almost dropping his plate as he does so! ^^; Nathan thinks.....he thinks that Emmitt is in love with me.. Which probably means that we'll be seeing him a lot more.. -_- He may be...but yeah, it doesn't seem to be a very healthy one.. :/ * Erellisae waggles a finger. "Good. More stress relief for us." ^^; Hmm...From the Icarian church to slobbering freak-bards. We're really popular, aren't we Erel? ^^; Actually, looking at all of this...Icarian cult, slobbering freak-bards, giant soul eating guppies... I'd say we're not only popular, but weird as well. Ah, but are WE weird, or are the people following us weird! ^^; Both. ;) Hm. Point. * Erellisae hmphs, then grins triumphantly. "Better than being normal! Besides, if Emmitt thinks /you/ still love /him/, you and Nathan just have to persuade him otherwise." :D * Mitsuo eats a bit more of the food, "By the way, Feray...what exactly is this? ^^;" * Feray blinks and backs her ears, uttering a faint whine. ^^; * Mitsuo hopes Feray doesn't kill him now. ;) * Erellisae tries not to break out in giggles. Really. She fails, but she tries. ^_~ * Feray blushes a bit and looks at Mitsuo, though she spares Erel a wicked look. "It's just meat simmered in spiced wine with black peppers and other spices seized in. I added a bit of paste to it to make it a sort of saucy dish." I haven't really got a name for it. ^^; How about 'Feray's magical Culinary Surprise!' * Erellisae turns back to her food, continuing to wolf it down. "'s gud!" ...That's lame. Grgh. ^^: * Feray snorts and leans against the counter. "How about 'food'?" She arches an eyebrow. "Speaking of hot things..." How're you two doing? * Mitsuo almost chokes on his food, blushing crimson, giving Feray all the answers she needs. ^^; * Erellisae chokes slightly on her current mouthful, coughing twice then eying Feray amusedly, sticking her tonuge out and blushing slightly. ^_~ * Feray raises an eyebrow -further-. Ahhh...I see. Did you get to the naked? * Mitsuo spits out his food! O_o * Feray utters a laugh! NO! * Erellisae chokes /again/, nearly falling off her chair. "Siiiiiiiiiiiisssssss...!" Aw, I'm just kidding, 'suo. ;) I know you're better than -that- ;) It's fun to watch her turn different colors, s'all. ^_- ^^; Er...ahaha...er.... * Feray wags a hand at Erel. * Mitsuo coughs a bit to clear his throat. ^^; * Erellisae flails. "... hey, and what about /me/?! I'm not better?!" ^_~;;; You're a Lupris, sis. We're all wicked deviants. ^_- Watch out for her, 'suo, she's a feisty one. ^_- Duly noted. ^^; * Erellisae hides under her hair, flailing and turning whole new shades of red. ^^;;; * Feray turns to grab a wineskin from a hook on the wall...she takes a hearty drink from it before pausing. * Feray swallows. Of course, if you -weren't- better than that. I would have to introduce your naughty parts to Mr. Pointy. * Feray slides her gaze to Mitsuo idly. You know, her being my little sis and all. * Erellisae just about recovers herself, still looking slightly mortified and coughing twice, trying to clear her head. o_@ ^^; Don't worry! I think it'd be best for everyone if...if...ahh...Mister Pointy never met Mr. naughty bits! * Feray grins widely and heads to Mitsuo, offering him some wine with a gently pat on the back. Good man. ^_- Ahaha... ^^;; * Erellisae blinks, and grins up at Feray, ruffling Mitsuo's hair, still blushing heavily. "Aw, c'mon, Mitsuo wouldn't be like that, and you know it!" ^_~ Oh sure. But really, he could be a priest and I'd still have to do some sort of intimidating threat in order to protect my tiny sis. ;) * Feray makes a 'tiny' motion with two fingers. * Mitsuo gulps. ^^; * Erellisae hmphs, sticking her tongue out. "Not tiny! ^_~ uhm... 'adequately able to get through small places'!" She looks triumphant, of a sort. ^^; * Feray blinks and some of the teasing look fades away to warmth. She winks at Erel, offering her the wineskin as well. "Oh, right. Of course." * Erellisae smiles, and takes the waterskin, taking an experimental swig... before coughing twice, wincing slightly. "... uhm... ack." ^^; * Feray arches an eyebrow. "Ah. Right." * Feray reaches out to snag the wineskin back ^^; * Mitsuo takes a sip of his own wine nervously. ^^; Anyway, my work here is done, lovebirds. And it's been a rather...tiring...night. So if you don't need my supervising presence.. ;) I think I have a date with the crow's nest. * Erellisae takes it a little slower this time, taking a sip or two before handing it back to Feray. "And with a certain person?" ^_~ * Feray blushes now and grins wryly, this time more prepared for the teasing. "Tsk, Erel...I -can- still manage to throw you over the side of this boat, you know." ^_- * Mitsuo looks back to Feray with a smile and a wink, "Without a doubt, Erel." * Feray casts Mitsuo a look that says 'you too, butterfly'. ;) * Erellisae grins, and sticks her tongue out. "I'll just hold on and take you with me!" >D You forget, Feray...I can float and fly! ^_- * Feray's eyebrows threaten to hit the roof. She gets a wicked grin. Not if you're tied to a certain tiny mage girl. ...Point. Which I'm sure she wouldn't mind. ;) * Erellisae bliiiinks, eyebrows shooting up as she coughs heavily twice o_O; * Mitsuo coughs as well. ^^;; * Feray winks and heads for the door. She leans on the frame a bit and smiles genuinely at the two. "Take it easy, you two. If you need me, I'll be around." * Erellisae nods, then smiles without teasing. "Have fun." ^_~ * Feray's ear twitches just slightly and she raises the wineskin in toast to Erel before sweeping down into a low bow. "Dear Lumian and Icarian both... I bid thee adieu." * Feray backs out of the door and disappears. ....So. Er...ah... * Erellisae breathes out, hiding under her hair again. "(m) Man, I'm gonna be blushing for a /week/..." She grins, shaking her head, and looks up, prodding Mitsuo. "So?" * Mitsuo takes another sip of his wine nervously. ^^: I...I uh...I've been meaning to tell you um.. . o O ( Out with it... ) I...really like your dress! . o O ( ... ) ...I'm also a bit drunk already. * Mitsuo puts down his glass. ^^; * Erellisae giggles, then leans, smiling lopsidedly. "So I see." She sobers slightly, looking concerned. "You've been pretty silent, Mits... what's on your mind?" Er...just...ah. ^^: Well...Feray just...er...sorta...was very...foward? ^^: * Erellisae giggles, and shakes her head. "Note to self: kiss Mitsuo /after/ all the important stuff to be said is out the way." She smiles warnly, bopping Mitsuo lightly in the arm. "Don't worry! She's jus' looking out for me. We both know you wouldn't do anything to upset either of us." You know I wouldn't... * Erellisae nods decisively, smiling. "Of course we know. We trust you." ^^ Thanks. ^^ * Erellisae rests her hand on one of Mitsuo's own, glancing up at him concerned. "Is that all, though? You were kinda silent even before sis mentioned that..." It's all right. I'm better now. :) Got you to thank for that. * Erellisae eyes Mitsuo skeptically. "... you sure?" * Mitsuo nods once again, "Positive." * Erellisae nods, smiling. "Good. No brooding, or I'll start tickling you again." ^_~ Deal. :) * Mitsuo polishes off his food, and stands up, "I promise! No more heavy duty brooding! But..." * Erellisae blinks, standing up herself to raise an eyebrow at Mitsuo. "But?" . o O ( ...Just...Do this Mitsuo. You can do this... ) * Mitsuo takes a few steps over to Erel, smiling down at her, "I think it's my turn to thank you for being there for me. :)" * Erellisae blinks up at Mitsuo. "How'd you mean?" * Mitsuo leans down and very gently kisses her on the cheek while also hugging her gently. After he's finished, he gives her another smile, "Kinda like that. You know what they about what goes around..." ;) * Mitsuo winks, "Goodnight, Erel. Pleasant dreams, okay? :)" * Erellisae blinks, nodding vaguely and turning a bright red. "Uh... y-yeah... thanks..." * Mitsuo continues to smile, and quietly heads out the door. Once he's outside, he heads back to his room, with a bit of a spring in his step. ;) * Erellisae blinks, and touches her lips. "H-hey.. thought /I/ was meant to be the forward one..." ^^; >> And thus the party while away the night with hot seckz except for that one time Feray fell out the crow's nest from drinking too much teh ende woo! [07:19:33] --- LUDE-O ENDE! ---
