"No I won't let him eat you, plus I am pretty sure he hasn't acquired a taste for flesh. He can't actually eat anything, he just threatens that he will. Any ways why are all of you out here and is can I see Atsuko?" Kuma continued to look at the strange girl for a while before returning to Iene's shoulder. "Can we go now I am growing tired."

Vix didn’t know how to take the news, that one day melchio may leave him from old age. It was a depressing thought and one he had to deal with for a very long time. Ever since he looked into kitsunes he had to struggle with the idea that he might live for a long time. At least now he had melchio and he would be happy for as long as he has him. He really wished he wasn’t in the hospital; he would much rather have this conversation somewhere more fitting. He couldn’t help but admire melchio blush and excitement from calling him Babe. He makes a note to call him that more often, if it means getting to see his face like that more often.
He sighed and looked at melchio and smiled “you would help me train. Well I’m honored, my prince.” He knew that he was going to need help to train and knowing the power melchio had he would be a great teacher. He gave a big smile and said “I’m your student, teacher!” he gave a small wink after. He was ready to start his training and also sick of being in this hospital room so he figures he would get melchio to break him out. He also figured he would have to call in a few debt, if he wish to grow stronger, one of those may be melchio’s father.
He looked at melchio with big puppy fox eyes and asked “hey melchio, my knight and shining armor, would you mind getting me out of this hospital please?” he didn’t want to be in this bed anymore and he knew that he had a lot to catch up on. Plus, he also had to search for both his and melchio brother. On top of that he had a lot of training to accomplish. He to-do list was long so he couldn't waste any more time in bed. @Halohbottech
temporalSorceress said:Nyr
Nyr rolled her eyes, huffing up at him.
"Don't you glare at me." She poked his side. "I wasn't doing anything bad. As for Illoi, I expect you two to atleast try to get along. Please? For me?" She pouted, looking up at him with a big puppy dog face until she as well felt the heat wave.
She squealed happily, letting go of Falcon to run straight at the elemental, slamming her body into his own and hugging him the best she could. "MOGMAL!!" She squealed again, laughing as the elemental scooped her up, tossing her in the hair before catching her and swinging her around again. He gave her a crushing hug before setting her on her feet, unscathed. She giggled, stumbling a bit till she was back by Falcons side.
"Mogmal has always been my favorite familiar that wasn't my own. That's not even his full size!" She slipped her hand into Falcons, looking up at him when he asked him next question.
"Well...I don't know about Illoi but I could use a nap of some sort. I'm tired." She nestled her face into Falcons's side, yawning a little as she does so.
Illoi
Illoi watched Nyr's reaction with Mogmal and giggled a bit before running her fingers through her long hair. She noted how she seemed to stick by Falcons side and she smiled softly.
"Illoi won't say it out loud, but she wants you to take good care of Nyr. Her power is about to come to a head, and she's going to need someone there for her when it does because it will not be easy for her to get it under control. From my scan, I'd say two weeks, at most, until it does." Mogmals voice was deep and rumbling, but only directed towards Falcon.
"Listen Nyr, I'll catch up with you in a little bit, alright? There is somethin I gotta do on your behalf." She glanced between Nyr and Falcon before turning around, taking off down the street, Mogmal following close behind her. She was headed for the hospital, where the energy of Melchio eminated. She told Mogmal to wait outside before slipping in amongst the chaos. Didn't these humans have a healer? She snorts a bit and follows the energy until she's standing in front of a door.
She doesn't bother knocking, and just enters the room. "Melchio? I have a message from Nyr. What she's been unable to tell you about the incident in the park, anyways. She's currently otherwise preoccupied with her new lover but I'd be more than happy to pass on the word." She smirks, leaning against the wall of the room, crossing her arms. Where Nyr was open about her dress, Illoi was in long sleeved shirts and leather pants.

Malorn Drakanos
Malorn nodded to Falin and glared to Heidt when he asked about more payment if he lead them to him. "That won't be nessacary." He told him pointedly. He could faintly sense Hitsugya's presence himself without Heidt's help in his current form, he had demonic energy in him after all being a Fallen Angel. Though, he didn't have time for faint sensing, he wanted to get this over with and fight whoever caused this destruction, he'd be damned if his apartment building will fall victim like his workplace. With a grunt he spread his legs slightly, bowed his head, and brought his right fist into his left palm. At first, nothing happened. Slowly runic markings began adorning his skin and a blue circle appeared under him, shortly after blue hellfire engulfed his form. Once it dissipated a being entirely different from his human form stood before them:
Anyone that could sense energy of any kind would immediately feel an immense wave of demonic energy wash over Faereach. Rolling his shoulders and cracking his neck he sighed, "Now then.." He muttered, un-crossing his arms and looking around with his pure blue eyes. Eventually he fixiated his gaze to the direction of the residential district. "Guess our angel is heading home, or possibly looking for someone.. There are more people with him. Hm.." He stated, trailing off at the end in thought. "Regardless, I'm interested in him, not whoever he is with. Let's go." He added soon after, walking off campus and slowly down the street, making sure they were following, his now cloven feet clacking against the pavement.

Ferra and Torr
While waiting on a response from Oscar Ferra got an idea. Why not send Torr out with invitations to give to people? She might even make more friends in the process! With a wide grin on her face and a groan from Torr who already knew what she was thinking she popped up and ran to her room, grabbing a stack of paper, a pen, and a sheet of bunny stickers. Quickly she wrote down invitations, all of them with her address on it stating to come to her house for something important, stressing the word important with several underlines and all caps but not exactly saying what. She giggled as she placed a bunny face sticker on all of them, it might be a bit rude to make them worry but she was excited for everyone to see her house. Plus she wanted to talk to Hitsu after what happened at the State Building.
"Here you go Torr, find Hitsu and everyone else and give them one of these, make it seem super important. I wanna see the look on their face when they rush over thinking something is wrong." She told him, giggling excitedly as he took the flyers. Standing she opened the door and shooed Torr out of it, who slowly trudged out of it. Shutting the door behind him she plopped back down on the couch, waiting on Oscar to say if he would come by or not.
Meanwhile, Torr walked through the streets trying to find anyone he remembered Ferra meeting. He gathered multiple odd looks from well..everyone. In all honesty he looked more like he was going to bust down houses than run errands. Eventually he spotted Hitsugya and someone else he didn't recognize. Regardless, he trudged up to them and held out two flyers to them in a somewhat urgent manner followed by a grunt.

Melchio
He chuckled, embarrassment spilled across his face like wine. "Me... a teacher? Ahehe..." He fantasized about the thought, his hand resting on his chin, and his eyes sparkling with excitement. He'd always wanted to be a teacher since he'd met his own- The Master- and had become as strong as he was now. He was sure he was one of the strongest beings in the city, if not the strongest, so whom better to train his little fox than himself. Grinning wildly, he grabbed Vix's hands in his own, determination written across his face. "Okay, I'll teach you best as I can! But just because you're my little Hex doesn't mean I'll go easy on you! After all, I wasn't taught to take it easy!" His pride ballooned at the thought of getting to train this amazing Kitsune before him- his own pupil! If he wasn't in a hospital he'd squeal with happiness like a little girl.
Despite his promise to train Vix, he was still a bit apprehensive to take Vix away from his room. After all, he was still healing, or so Melchio believed. Still, his Hex wasn't some weak-bodied human: he was a powerful, immortal, even, Kitsune. So, with a worried, but understanding smile, he nodded. "Alright then, if that's what you want. I'd prefer to wait a little longer, but I know what's it's like to be antsy and want to get on your feet." However, just as he picked Vix up, carrying him similar to how he'd carried him before- bridal style- he was surprised by this young woman with deep brown skin and ember-ish eyes and black hair as dark as tar. Nearly dropping Vix, he re-adjusted his grip to be a little more accommodating (those tails were more obtrusive than one'd think) before listening to what Illoi had to say.
"...Well, good to know Nyr's safe. Wouldn't want the poor girl to stay with that freak Falcon, hah!" He laughed, pure and genuine, completely unaware of the irony of his statement. "I mean, she'd be a dead woman if she stayed with him! Eviscerated! Carved like a pumpkin on Halloween! But now that that abomination's outta the way, she's safe, I presume, heh." He tossed his hair over his shoulder and out of his eyes, before training them back on Illoi. "So, what's it you gotta tell me, miss? What exactly did Nyr want to say to me that she couldn't say in person? And, ah, who's this lover, if I'm allowed to ask?" He knew he was being nosy, but it wasn't like his arms were particularly tired. Plus, if he waited for Vix to wake up from his short coma, then he could wait a few seconds more while the situation was explained.
>- - - - -<
Falcon
"I was glaring...?" He muttered, scratching his head in genuine confusion. Why the hell would he want to stare at Nyr? It wasn't like she'd done anything wrong- if anything, he should be looking to her with gratitude for all that she's done for him. A shiver went down his spine when he thought about what that could mean, but decided to shove away the thought for now, and focus on what Nyr said. "N-Not even his full size, huh?" He chuckled, concern beginning to become evident on his face. Naturally, his hand slid down his side to his katana whilst he stared at Mogmal. He wasn't sure how well Zezze'd cut a creature that looked like it was made of magic, but really was just a big ball of fire and magma, but if worse came to worse, he'd have to try.
Falcon was engrossed by Mogmal's speech, which despite the heat of the day and the familiar, sent chills down his spine. "Woah woah woah, Mogmal hold the phone-" He waved his hands in front of him, worry growing in his eyes. "-what do you mean by that, exactly? I'm strong, but I'm no master at taking care of magic, catch my drift?" A shadow crossed over his eyes at thinking of the last few times he'd had... encounters with magic. "I'd be obliterated, Mogmal. I'm sorry, but I can't help in that category: I'd be a cow sent out to slaughter. A human who walked in my path. A sheep separated from its flock in a den of wolves." But of course, Mogmal hadn't heard this, him having charged off before he could even utter a word. Sighing, he shook off the darkness that clouded his mind, and felt Nyr press against him, causing him to sigh a little, a hand resting on her head.
"Yeah, I get it. I'm tired myself." A thought sprung in his head that made him frown, displeasure at the idea written across his face. "...You do have a home in the city, right? I mean- you weren't just living on the streets before you met me, right?" He glanced down at her, the frown not changing, despite her signs of affection. He'd hoped to avoid this... but where would Nyr sleep if she were homeless? Not on the streets, he hoped. A hotel was barely adequate, a motel even worse. Worry began to settle within him again...

$Heidt$
Heidt scoffed, his grin unfaltering, though a sore tone picking its way into his speech. "Couldn't blame a guy for trying, though." He muttered, slipping his gun into its holster. A part of his mind told him to blast the demon's brains out, but considering he'd spent the last six years trying to get said demon to warm up to a Blessed Human, he didn't want to ruin their shaky friendship anymore than he'd already done. "Ah well, I guess I can only can ya out of so much cash before you just say 'Fuck it' and go beast-mode, eh Malorn?" He cackled, his steel-toed boots clacking after the half-goat demon.
"I wonder where Hitsugya's headed 'xactly though. I mean... he surely isn't headed home right now: this isn't the right way. Must have business to attend to. Hey, are you gonna kick his ass, Malorn?" He asked, swooping in front of the Grand Demon, though he was quick to move so that he and said demon had plenty of space. If one looked at him, it was obvious why: being so close to a demon of Malorn's caliber was sending Heidt's senses into overdrive, and the Markings of the Blessed- the tattoos that made his touch so adversely terrible to demons- were finally visible, tracing faintly across his skin and under his clothes. Every inch of his skin that was visible had the tattoos on them, making him look like a labyrinth of liquid gold rivers.

temporalSorceress said:Nyr
Nyr turned a dark shade of red, more out of embarrassment at the situation than anything.
"I...uh..." She gave a sheepish shrug instead, rubbing the back of her neck. "What little I had before, I stole and swindled- you'd be surprised at how desperate some people are and how much they'd-" She cut herself off with a little cough, shaking her head. "I don't really have a place to stay. I was mostly just going from place to place, really." She giggled a bit in embarrassment, scuffing the ground with her shoe.
"I never really got enough to rent any where- not even an apartment." She mumbled sheepishly, looking at the ground. She shifted a little, crossing her arms in front of her stomach as she stared at the ground.
"It doesn't really bother me, thought! I'm used to sleeping outside, and Aquios alerts me of anyone trying to sneak up on me. It's a fairly decent system, anyways." She shrugs, playing with the hem of her shirt. Why had she only just now begun to feel embarrassed by the fact she was... homeless? It'd never bothered here before, so why now? She frowned a bit, running her fingers through her hair as she goes to sit on a near by bench. What was Falcon going to think of her now? She rested her elbows on her knees, holding her head in her hands as she does so. She was a mess. A sloppy, homeless mess.
Illoi
Illoi quirked an eyebrow at the mention of the name. "You mean...that thing is someone you know? What do you mean she'd be gutted?! She didn't seem-!" She stops, pinching the bridge of her nose and screwing her eyes shut. "Of course she would find some way to tame the one person who would try to kill her." She grumbled, waving her hand dismissively.
"Anyways, where was I? Oh, right. The message. The thing she saw in the park...it was shrouded in darkness, as if it were in the sky. She said something about...a beast, bigger than anything she's seen with wings. I don't know if that means anything to you, but the darkness burned her when it was starting to push her out of it's way. The last thing she remembered seeing was some...ancient building, I think. What you would call a...hm...keep? Something along those lines. That's all I got from her." She frowned a little.
"Does this...Falcon creature like to play with his food before he eats it? I don't mean to alarm you but this new lover of hers is a being named Falcon. She seemed like she really liked him, though. Although...I did see her memories..." She scowls, shaking her head. "No, she wouldn't do something so stupid as put her life in danger..." She trailed off, not really sure of that statement herself. If her princess was in danger, she'd know...right?
"Hitsugya Udaza, call me Hitsu if you want, and what do you mean by a strong soul?" he asked, hands in his pockets and slouched over, almost like he didn't care about anything at the moment, or Ryd for that matter.Metaphysics said:(Yep.)

Melchio
The silence that filled the room after Illoi was done talking completely was palpable to the human hand. The silence was only interrupted periodically by the sounds of horror that emanated from within Melchio as his jade eyes lost their shine, flashes of blood and gore filling his mind, and a visage, a horrifying visage, of his friends massacred flashed before him, and on top of that pile of bodies was Nyr's distorted, wrung body, desecrated and eviscerated by that monster's hand. His arms went weak, and he nearly dropped Vix, before his wings supported his arms, snapping him back to reality. Readjusting the fox, he rested his cold, deadly-serious eyes on Illoi, speaking in a low, slow manner.
"That monster... my family and I took him in. My father, my brothers and sisters, we all took care of him. For thirteen years- thirteen- he lived with us. We loved him. We thought he loved us." His glare intensified, wings glowing and humming ominously, only adding to the furious ambiance Melchio'd created. "Want to know how he repaid that love? That respect? He murdered everyone- everyone I loved. Not just that family- no, that wasn't enough, now was it? He was so bloodthirsty he destroyed my entire village. Set it ablaze. Killed and ate everyone, even the family that'd taken care of him. He didn't even leave me a single body to mourn." He lowered his eyes, staring through Vix and to the floor below him. "That abomination has no place on this world. He deserves nothing but a slow, painful, horrific death. But do not engage him. If he hasn't killed Nyr yet... then that means he's hesitating."
He glanced up at Illoi, the fire inside hidden by a layer of serious that masked his hatred of his "brother". "It has to do with Aquios, I'm going to bet. Once he finds a way around him, Nyr's dead. So, keep an eye on him, and if you suspect him of anything, then subdue, or if you can, kill him." His eyes held no love for the creature that'd destroyed his life. He'd rather see him dead by someone else's hands than walking around the world like he owned the place, swaggering about like he was all that. He was a beast. And beasts always get put down.
>- - - - -<
Falcon
Falcon smiled- it was a smile laced with sad, nearly crushing realization and understanding- and strolled up to Nyr, before plopping down close to her, and staring at his clenched fist between his legs. "And you'd be surprised that I wouldn't be. Don't you know me? I've never had a place to call home before. Just dens of death and deceit- over and over again, day by day." He turned to look at her, pain written plain to see across his face. "And you know what? I... respect you, Nyr, for your honesty. Honestly, this is something I've worried about since I'd met you. Night approaches. Monsters come out in the night, you know. The only safe place at night is a place which you can call home." He stared down at his hand, which'd rested so naturally on top of Nyr's, and his pain was replaced with a different emotion that he couldn't explain.
"...But as a monster myself, I ought to know, huh? I mean, hah... I've done some pretty shitty things. Things'd that'd far out-shadow whatever you've had to do. So, don't look so ashamed of yourself, Nyr." His tail wriggled slowly, as his mind tried to find the right words to say- something incredibly difficult for one of his social awkwardness. "...But what's good about these things I've done, is that I'll use what I've reaped from them for good. For your protection. I don't have enough for a nice house, but an apartment's no big deal for me." He pulled out the three wallets whose money he'd been pulling from all day, each of them still full with their previous owner's belongings, which hit him like a fist to the gut.
"I don't want you to have to sleep outside if you don't want to, Nyr. I don't want you to have to do anything you don't want to do. I don't know why- I just... can't understand, at all, really, why... but Nyr," He glanced up at her, eyes shining with something other than tears. "I can't see you like this and not do something. There's this empty place within me that used to be my soul, and I thought, at one time, it'd stay like that forever. Yet... when I'm with you, I feel that hole filled. Whenever I do something- anything!- for you, even something as little as hold a door open for you, I feel that hole fill more and more. I don't know to what bounds I'd go to in order to see you happy, to see that amazing smile on your face again, but it doesn't matter." He glanced between his legs, staring at his tail as it waved back to him, encouraging him to go on. "As long as you're happy... as long as you have the hope I cannot have... I'm fine with doing anything and everything for you." He smiled, softly, a blush spreading across his ear once again. "...Look at me. I'm picking up some of your habits, aren't I...? Me, rambling. Hah. Haha... heh..."
Hitsugya's eyes widened when she asked him for a 'tiny piece' of his soul "Why?..." he asked awkwardly, looking down at the girl then back to Crimson and Mizuki.Metaphysics said:
loyalwolf said:Vix
Vix wished he could do something other than be held like a weak Pup. He sighed he figured the best thing to do was change the conversation. He looked to Illoi and asked “how is Nyr anyway? Last time I saw her she was critical condition and I was using one of my most powerful healing spells on her. I really should follow up with a post healing check-up. Next time you see her can u ask her to find us so I can make sure everything turned out fine.” He smiles he knew Nyr was no weakling so he figured if things got bad she could manage herself. He real intention where to have a private conversation with her.
There was one thing off his check list now though. He knew that Falcon was with Nyr, now the question being what are his true intention with her. he would have to look into that, without the involvement of melchio of course. He pulled on melchio shirt to grab his attention and gave him a weak smile trying to convey the fact that he was here with him through this. He said to melchio “listen melchio you can’t let your emotions get the better of you. I know personally how this feels but you know that if you don’t have a clear mind, you’ll just get yourself or someone else killed.” He need melchio to come to his senses before he did something crazy. Still having melchio father words in his head.
They also had other thing to worry about now that they knew about nyr message. He then spoke “plus we need to get me healed up, then we need to do some research into what Nyr said.” He will deal with the whole falcon situation when the times comes but for now they had other things to worry about. he also remembers one other thing “speaking of which I need to talk to Frillz before we leave.” He needed to speak with the fly trap about something personal and something he wish to convey. @Halohbottech @temporalSorceress
temporalSorceress said:Illoi
Illoi's fingers curled into fists, and she was trembling a bit. She barred her teeth, snarling a little bit as the thought over-took her senses. She turned away from the pair, struggling to get a grip on her anger. When she spoke, her voice was filled with nothing but ice.
"I can assure you, if he so much as look's at her wrong, he's going to regret it. I will not let any harm come to my princess." She whirled around, dropping to one knee with her fist pressed against her chest as she bowed her head.
"I took an oath to protect her, and I'll be dammed if I'm going to let someone take her from me. I don't care if I have to move heaven and earth, I will make sure she lives." She snarled before standing up, tucking her hair behind her ears and pulling it into a pony tail. "No harm will come to her as long as I am around, and Mogmal can make sure that stays true. As for this...brother of yours. What if Nyr chooses to protect him? You don't know her like I do. She will move the Earth against me should I choose to harm him if my guesses about her feelings are correct. I can't lift a finger against her, that would be blasphemy." She frowns a bit, shuddering a little at the very thought of the gesture.
Her attention turns to the fox and she smiles, albeit a bit strained. "Nyr's doing just fine, no signs of damage. She was able to heal herself with the help of Aquios. Uh...if we can get you to Nyr, she can heal you up. She's a profound healer, really." She rubs the back of her neck.
@loyalwolf
Nyr
Nyr took Falcon's hand in her own, the same smile returning to her lips as she rests her head against his shoulder. She giggled quietly as he explained his feelings, and she lifted his hand up a little, pressing her lips to the back of his hand gently before smiling a bit.
"An apartment would be lovely, Falcon. A place to call home...with you." She nuzzles into him gently, dropping his hand to wrap her arms around his waist. She presses her face into his shoulder, humming a little and giggling again. "Nothing would make me happier, Falcon. Well, I could think of a few things but I'll save those for later." She sits up, running her fingers through her hair. "Well? Let's go look for some place to call home, shall we?" She giggles again and stands up, taking his hand and pulling him to his feet.
"I'm thinking somewhere small. Near a food place or something. Or a bar. I'm good with either one. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, it can even be a one-room apartment. I wouldn't mind." She grins and skips back a little bit. "However, I am going to need a warm shower. That's all I care about." She squeals out a laugh, clapping her hands excitedly. It was apparent that she was over-joyed with the thought of getting a place to call home, especially one with Falcon at that.

Melchio
Melchio sighed, relieved, but still clearly shaken. "Good to hear, miss. You take care of her. And... if she decides to defend him... then just run. Get send us a signal we'll be able to understand." He looked to her, a solemnity about him that well surpassed his years. "It's imperative that Falcon's six feet under as soon as possible. Nyr shouldn't ever be alone with him and Aquios at one time- too much could conspire while they're alone." He sighed again, his emotions settling as Vix suggested. He gave him as small smile, his worry still there, but everything else gone. "...Yeah, I see what you mean. Thanks you, Vix. And miss?" His eyes once again became cold, so much so that ice formed at his fingertips. "That thing is not my brother. It's what remains of him." Finally, he left Illoi alone, carrying Vix out calmly like he'd never said anything.
"Yeah we do... a dark keep, huh?" He frowned, he hated to admit it, but he had no idea of the place Illoi spoke of. At first, he thought she was describing Baelgrad, but then she mentioned that it was a castle... he'd drawn a blank. He barely had time to think about it, however, as they reached Frillz and Mykky's room. Melchio was both glad and sad to see Mykky was still unconscious from his attack from earlier, though Frillz seemed to have calmed down some, and was sitting by Mykky's bed, eyeing the door. When he saw Melchio, he shifted some, uncomfortable to be in the same room as the man who attacked Mykky. Smiling softly, he sat down, sitting Vix next to him.
"Frillz, I'm not here to talk. I'm simply here to observe-" he gestured to Vix, a small smile on his face. "Vix, on the other hand, is here t talk, not observe. Would you mind answering his questions?"
>- - - - -<
Falcon
Falcon sighed and smiled at the familiar warmth of Nyr resting against him, and could feel his chest fill again with that mysterious, yet familiar warmth that he always felt when around Nyr. It only grew when she kissed the back of his hand, the gesture sending goosebumps up his arm and a chill down his back. This affection... he wasn't used to it yet. But... if it made him feel like this... then he could grow used to it. He smiled just a little, and rested his head against Nyr's for a moment, before she spoke again. A home with him, huh? Normally, he'd object. Say it was too dangerous, that at any moment his father could turn him against her... but he'd never break her heart like that, saying they couldn't be together. Plus, he'd be lying to himself if he didn't want to live with her.
"...I'm too much of a gentleman to bother asking what those 'other things' are, Nyr." He muttered, trying to sound condescending, but his humor peeked through. "A small place, huh? I know a few places around town. As a matter of fact, there's this nice residential area near the inner city. It has quite a few apartments, and a nice park nearby- it's pretty big too, though it's just a little square of nature in this concrete jungle." He couldn't help but chuckle at Nyr's childish excitement. It was... cute. He could almost forget the growing feeling of uneasiness in his gut with her around. Speaking of... why did he feel so uneasy? Nyr's squeals instantly yanked him back into the real world, however, and he gave the feeling no thought.
"H-hey, wait up! Nyr, you have no idea where to go!" He called, frustration and a bit of humor in his voice as he chased off after the skipping lass, waving to try and get her attention. Bah, if she wasn't so amazing, she'd be one hell of a handful...
=-=-=-=-=
Soon enough, there they stood, looking at the door to their apartment. 432. He was told it was nice, and that he could change it if it didn't meet his or his girlfriend's standards. (He'd felt his ear burning up at that comment. Nyr his... girlfriend? If only he were so lucky.) He waited a bit, nervous, but soon enough slid the key in the lock, turned it, and a soft click let him in.
"..." He glanced around. It was decently sized- it appeared larger than it actually was, given its open design. It almost felt like a real house, and was reminiscent of his old dojo, besides the television and other modern devices, most of which would be replaced once they moved in. Then, the could design it how they liked. Make it truly their home. Of course, he'd chosen the wood design thinking Nyr'd like it. If she didn't... well... it wouldn't be the end of the world.
"Not bad. Like the feel of it. Only one bedroom, though-" he pointed up the wooden stairs, and to a loft-like area. "-guess I'll be sleeping on the couch, eh?" He joked. This was, of course, all up to Nyr's thoughts. If she wanted something else, he'd let her pick something else. Still, he kinda liked this place. Being surrounded by wood was... calming, to say the least.
Nyr
Nyr squealed, jumping up and down a little. She hugged Falcon tightly and nestled into him, giggling. "I love it!" She let him go to run through the apartment, running up the stairs and back down. She practically flung herself at him, burying her face in his chest and hugging him tightly.
"It's perfect, Falcon. And uh...you don't have to sleep on the couch if you don't want to...the bed's plenty big enough." Her face turned a light shade of pink and she rubbed the back of her neck. She hadn't really thought about it until she said it, but there was no turning back now. She yawned a little, nestling into him again.
"Can we just take a nap? I'm exhausted." She smiled slightly, stepping back a bit and yawning widely before running her fingers through her hair. A nap sounded lovely, but she didn't just want to up and go to sleep, leaving Falcon alone. For some reason, she wanted him to lay down with her atleast until she fell asleep. The idea sounded perfect, and she just wanted to curl up against him and fall asleep. He might be cool to the touch, but it balanced out her body heat perfectly. She stretched and scampered up the stairs to the loft area, poking her head over the ledge.
"You comin?" She giggled, running her fingers through her hair again. She kicks her legs a little, flopping back onto the mattress and giggling happily. She hadn't been on something this comfy in ages.
Illoi
Illoi sighed and followed them, standing outside the door and hesitating for a moment before entering. She frowned, looking at the plant thing before looking at the girl in the bed. She tsked softly, shaking her head.
"Nyr could fix all of this..." She sighed quietly, sitting down in a chair near the door. She didn't really have an option at this moment. She had a giant fire elemental just waiting outside, and she didn't know what she was going to do from here. She had to get back to Nyr, but not until she found out more about Nyr's newfound companions. The only way to do that, she figured, was to observe. She crossed her legs, resting her head back against the wall, and staring at the ceiling. She was worried about Nyr, and the fact that they weren't doin anything about it only made her antsy. She sighs, tapping her fist against her forehead before leaning forward.
There had to be something she was missing. Why was Falcon hesitating? There's no way that being could possibly have feelings, right? Not from the way this Melchio fellow explained it. She groaned, rubbing her temples. Something was off. Something...wasn't adding up.

(You seem like you have a lot on your hands, but here)"Yea, of course!" Tumiji chuckled and walked forward looking at the houses around them, glancing back now and then still getting used to his lack of tails. "I wonder what would be a decent start..." He really didn't know what he was doing but he didn't want to mess up too bad so he just kept looking.

"Hmm..." Ahri thought about the places to live in for a few minutes. "Downtown?"
"Well, Downtown is first I guess."Kihara017 said:
