[ Continued from here. ]

A business one, if we must put a name to it.

[ But this is all likely very new to the both of them, after all. Still, what can a man of Umbraton do but skulk in the shadows and bide his time?

He…doesn’t want to think about how far they should be taking this alliance. That Game 52 is going to make things very inconvenient indeed… ]

We each have our own ways of obtaining information, after all. And we both have a vested interest in returning home as soon as possible…

[lieabilities]

[ There's a level of satisfaction in the air around Kleken when he takes to crossing his legs comfortably, leaning back into his tentacles as he keeps his eyes fixed on Minos speaking. He'd almost look exactly like he would back in Umbraton, if not for the complete lack of clothing on the man aside from some modesty tentacles. ]

A trading of information then. I could easily agree to that, though I believe there's another aspect we might consider.

Physical assistance should the situation require it.

[bullistics]

[ The mention of "physical assistance" gets him to stop short.

Somehow, despite still being in his own terrycloth robe, he still feels deeply, profoundly underdressed.

He's never been intimate, of course. He'd devoted his entire life to the Andersens. That left him with very little room for a personal life and personal relationships. His quite platonic friendship with the Navigator is the closest thing he has to intimacy.

And he still thinks of the look of horror on Nina's face, when she'd caught him bloody after a fight to save her father's life.

No one…should even think of wanting to be intimate with a monster like him.

A tight smile. ]

I doubt you'll have any trouble finding someone more suited to your needs. After all, I'm afraid I don't have the…necessary experience to assist you in this matter.

sorry for the delay, was on vacation then slammed by other stuff

[lieabilities]

[ Minos' hesitance is like a bucket of blood dropped into shark-infested water. Three guesses as to who the shark is in this scenario. ]

[ Though his smile remains the same, there's a far more predatory look in his eyes than just moments before, his gaze fixed absolutely on the other man. ]

If it's a matter of experience, I believe I could lend a hand in the matter.

There's no reason to be shy.

glad to hear from you again! hope you had a rad vacation!!!

[bullistics]

[ Is it him or does this room somehow feel like a proper torture chamber now? He can feel his tail stiffening in response. ]

And what makes you think I’m shy?

[ He’d like to say he’s more…wary, really. And the really annoying part is that he wouldn’t even hate doing it with Kleken, it’s just…

Why does he have to be so damned shady about this?

…Not that Minos can talk considering some of his nighttime activities, but. ]

I’m simply mulling over how to modify the terms of our alliance.

[ Such that it is. ]

(( From here. ))

(( OOC: Looking at the skill, it looks like it's not the sort of status effect that stacks, just makes a person want to run away 'for a round' but I'm glad to leave it open for some player fun. ))

I returned your favor.

[ It takes a few moments more for the pheromones to fade from Kleken's system, and he finds himself needing to close his eyes for a moment to regain his senses as the last of it is breathed out. ]

[ He can't say he enjoyed the sensation, far from it in fact. He's rather loathe to lose control of a situation, but he can hardly fault a person for using every tool in their pocket to get what they want. If anything, it does intrigue him a bit more about Reign and what sort of scenario would push a man to jump so quickly to using an ability like that. ]

[ Bed sheet in hand, he begins to cross the room with little regard to his own modesty, his tentacles no longer emitting the sensation of Fright they did before. Though that likely doesn't help the disturbance of having a near nude man striding straight for a person. ]

But I believe we're both capable of having a conversation without such distractions.

[eaudevamp]

[ Recent events back in his world has tilted his world view a little, and his mental state isn't the best to say the least, judging by the hint of redness around his eyes. But it meant he was also wary of certain groups who may end up discovering something that could jeopardise his dear friend. It didn't excuse him for what he did to the man, and thus he reaped the consequence.

If he wants to feel fear again, he much rather the sexy kind that flips his switch. As it stands, when Kleken moves closer, Reign finds himself shuffling back until he's trapped between the wall and the man. If only there's a pillar for him to hide behind, so he holds his hands up as if to ward off Kleken. ]

Right, but now you are a whole different kind of distraction.

[ He's going to pointedly and respectfully stare at squid-man's rather attractive being. Wait, is that impolite? ]

[lieabilities]

[ The smile he gives in return is all but innocent; this is a man who is well aware that he is some level of attractive, but more amusingly, a very large number of people find nudity uncomfortable while he does not. It wasn't a weapon he often got to wield, given the reputable organization he represented, but it was one he wasn't ashamed to use. ]

[ He comes to a stop just in front of Reign, tilting his head with that same non-innocent smile on his lips as he lets his eyes fall on the hands held out in defense. ]

If you'd like to touch me, you need only ask.

[eaudevamp]

[ Reign is no stranger to nudity and sex. It's rather common at certain parties held by vampires. Doesn't mean he partakes in them, much less have much experience. Not that he's going to allow Kleken to see how much his state of undress is affecting him, despite the blush colouring his cheeks. ]

Who says I want to touch?! [ No, his voice most certainly did not went up an octave. ] Ahem... I mean, we're strangers and barely know each other. I was even hostile to you! [ Excuses, excuses.

He's just... going to try and sidle sideways, hands still held up. ]

@additionalterms

[lieabilities]

(( From here. ))

[ His lips quirk in amusement at that little action; he certainly has no issues with a slip of the hand like that. Rather, he's beginning to wonder if he should apply his illusions to that particular side of the dice to make it a more interesting one, if the die are going to be so insistent about showing it. ]

Hmm, I believe I should oblige.

[ How convenient, to already have his hand on Levy so he can oh-so-helpfully guide him up. ]

But you don't seem like the sort who would be content to just watch and not do the work yourself. Am I wrong?

[additionalterms]

You are, of course, absolutely right.

[ Levy seems pleased with the actual assistance up as he leans forward. He holds his hands out in a manner that says 'may I' with his eyebrows raised. Of course, it's just a brief wait before he is running his hands over the front of the outfit. ]

You really have wonderful taste. We didn't come with anything and you found something that suits you quite well, sir. [ His business voice is out in full, because it's fun and funny. ] I'm sure you already heard so much of that already from the store itself, though.

[ And he undoes enough of the front so that he could see skin. ] But I'm sure you've also been told that you'd look good in anything. [ Chat-chat-chat, he does. His head dips down to open his mouth to give a soft but meaningful bite on the skin exposed. Not enough to break skin, of course, but enough to give it a little playful pinch with his teeth. ]

Sorry for the delay, was on vacation.

[lieabilities]

[ Falling all too easily into the role so generously presented to him, Kleken gives a small nod of approval at Levy's questioning reach. The amusement in his eyes is clear as day, as is the growing heat and interest in their little game together. And moreso, the other man. ]

I'm flattered by the compliment. I did try my best to be at least presentable.

[ The hands over his body are quite flattering as well, a warm touch against his naturally cooled skin. But it's the bite to his skin that finally pulls a soft inhale of his breath, gaze deepening with something other than amusement now. His paled skin easily shows the bite mark left behind, a dark bloom against his chest. ]

Even this?

no worries! i hope it was a good one. o7

[additionalterms]

And I'd say you did your best well.

[ He smiles at the little mark that he leaves. His eyes drift up as he offers a half-smile this time around, rather than a smirk or grin. They are playing a game with one another, and it is a fun one. ]

Even this.

[ Levy runs his hands over the bite mark, gently massaging the skin, like he is reflecting and sorry for it after the fact. ]

@bigbanger

[lieabilities]

(( From here. ))

[ Smart man. Kleken would in fact take the other for all he could, if allowed, so playing it safer is by far the better option. ]

[ So just as carefully, Kleken picks his own words, deciding for a bit of momentary fun over information. There don't seem to be any immediate dangers and, well, they're already naked so there's hardly any remaining modesty to maintain. ]

Some indulgence to start. I've been curious about something this entire time and I was hoping you'd indulge me in finding out.

[bigbanger]

[curious, huh? Nova's wings fold up neatly against his back. he's not in any hurry to leave this room yet, though he figures, he'll probably have to if he wants answers.

but Nova will indulge Kleken for as long as he wants]

I could probably help out with that.

[he says this, but Nova has no idea what Kleken is referring to, yet. that could mean a lot of things! he could be curious about the room, or what's outside of the room, or about the demon himself. besides, Nova already asked the man what he was, so it's only fair that he allow this]

[lieabilities]

How generous of you.

[ Reaching out, Kleken's hand comes to a rest against Nova's chest, not quite applying pressure yet. His hand is surprisingly cool, and it only takes a moment before his fingers are spreading themselves wide and tentacles start to trail down his arm to run over skin as well. ]

I'd like to try out this little system, and I need someone's help with that.

[ That someone being Nova, of course. ]

[bigbanger]

[a cold hand. interesting. but not anything to worry about. in fact, Nova doesn't look nervous. even with the tentacles approaching him, he appears to be more eager than scared. his tail continues to sway, but Nova, himself, is still]

A system.

[he repeats, letting his eyes fall shut for a moment]

Is it something you haven't tried before?

@malpwactice

[lieabilities]

(( From here. ))

[ It's inevitable, that the smile on his lips and the interest in his eyes would grow as Aak continues his little... ministrations. The concentration and thought being put into this was adorable, in Kleken's very skewed sense of the word. ]

[ He'll slide himself closer, enough so that his voice will sound startlingly close when he finally decides to speak up again. ]

Perhaps you just need to try a different technique.

[malpwactice]

[Aak's frame stays in the same place when Kleken is suddenly so close but his tail does fluff up slightly. Ah, jeez, damn... Aak thinks to himself, if thise guy wanted to do anything, he could have just gotten away with it. And just because he didn't doesn't mean he should count himself safe.]

Yeah? I don't exactly have the extra appendages you do, dude.

I'm guessing, [he tilts the leaves again, turning to glance at the other man] If you spoke up, you've got a bright idea?

Sorry for disappearing, was on vacation!

[lieabilities]

[ That's absolutely the correct thought given Kleken's own personality. Being anywhere within range of the man or his tentacles could set a person up for some exciting times... of multiple natures, even. ]

Your own hands are more than satisfactory enough, I assure you. I believe you simply need some guidance on your technique.

hope vacation was fun!

[malpwactice]

[It's just changing his mind back to some old settings, really. Maybe he'd gotten a bit too comfortable under the agency's roof and under the care of Rhodes Island. Just because this place was better-lit than Lungmen didn't mean it was any better.]

Okay. [said in the eye-rolling way a teenager does]

What's your guidance, then?

[He leans back a bit, so he's not so close up against the plant's pot.]

migrates this here coz I waited for captcha long enough

[riskybeenus]

[OOC: Continued from here.]

Yeah? Seemed pretty interestin' from what I heard.

[The gasps and the sudden silence had been weird, but he supposed as long as they're out in one piece, it's fine for now. He didn't know if he could trust the guy, but he did help him.]

All right, a deal's a deal. What do I owe ya for gettin' me outta there?

rip captcha

[lieabilities]

Vicious fights often are, I hear.

[ A hint as to what the audience had seen, but given that everyone immediately involved appeared to be in one piece, that vague statement only served to make things even more confusing to those who didn't know about his abilities. ]

[ Not his problem- ]

[ What is his problem is when Rinne makes a vaguely open offer and Kleken's mind races in a thousand different ways, over hundreds of different scenarios and desires and probably he should be normal about this and- ]

A date?

[riskybeenus]

A date?

[He didn't mean to echo the question, but he's a little surprised at it. Maybe he's been too skeptical since he's arrived.]

I ain't got money and I ain't familiar with this place. Ya sure that's what you want?

[lieabilities]

I am.

I'm rather certain we could have a free and enjoyable time together.

[ They had before, but that's not a clarification he's going to be making right now. Or possibly ever. ]

The resort does have quite the variety of activities.
