His lips pulled into a tight line as his brows furrowed together in spite of his blatant attempt to remain completely stoic. He hated this feeling and the heat of his face. Most of all he hates the giddy feeling thrumming through his veins at the feeling of Navia's hand on his chest.

He knew what he wanted to do.

Pick up with where they had started in the past life before Mydei had to leave his people and her behind. But this wasn't the Navia that fell in love with him. This was the Navia he had been courting for not even long enough to consider broaching the idea of a relationship.

So gently he pulled her hand from his chest and his fingers gently closed around her's. "It's nothing. Don't worry, I just got done exercising. My heart rate hasn't calmed back down yet."

He could understand that. Being stuck in the city pretending to be trying to play nice and dealing with fine delicate web of politics was irksome at best and maddening at worst. He didn't know how it must be for some travelers beyond the stars but he knows enough time playing petty political games leaves him exhausted and angry and in dire need of taking that anger out on something else.

"Suit yourself. But where is the Deliverer? He was here with me a few minutes ago?"

Mydei's eyes scanned around them, looking for some inkling of that bubbly obnoxious fool but only found nothing but the result of many would call a long battle but would say more as a long work out.

     “ Sometimes a girl wants t' flex her claws. ”

     A soft laugh escapes the smaller at his words. Like there's no reason for her to be anywhere else. Meng Yao was safely with the others, and it wasn't like she had much else going on at this point. The chance to help with things like this – it was worth taking the time for.

     Add in that Phainon had essentially asked her to come and – well, there she was. Anything to get this stress that was sitting in the pit of her stomach dealt with.

//At a new infusion center, turns out it wasn't as insanely far out as I thought it would be so hopefully I can get this done and be on my way by 10 to go do my dog sitting stuff when I get back I plan to go on about a thought about Moze I had last night.

"I would love to." And he really did mean that, things had changed from one life to the next but if there was one thing he was sure had not changed it was the fact that her deserts were never going to be something he turns away from.

That and of course, a part of him would just be looking for another excuse to see her again. She may never love him like he loved her but that didn't stop him from wanting her when offered a sliver of mutual interest.

"But I don't think it's that urgent." At least it better not because if he was getting pulled out of this to stop two fools that can't have a civil discussion apparent someone is getting thrown in a hard surface until both realize that their King has better than to do with his time than break up fights.

Then whoever was there before could explain to him why they didn't step in before he showed up. OR better yet, if were that urgent than at least one of them better be dead when he gets there.

"If it is then they can figure it out amongst themselves until I can get you home, besides I don't know anyone worthy of respect that would just allow a woman to walk home all by herself." Her offered her his hand, fighting the instinct to yank his hand back and try to play it off lest he make this even more awkward than it already feels.

Eyebrows furrowed in confusion when Mydei suddenly stopped midsentence and excused himself to follow a man out the door that he seemed to know. The waiter came around again right after Mydei excused himself, and Navia asked the server to come back in a couple moments to take their dessert order because the other guest had to step out for a moment. She didn't get a chance to get a good look at the man Mydei followed out of the restaurant, so she had no idea if it was a family member or a friend or something else entirely.

When she saw him come back, Navia assumed Mydei would fill her in on whatever had just happened and why he'd stopped to talk to their server before rejoining her at the table. And she hadn't expected him to come back and say he suddenly needed to leave either, so the disappointment crossing Navia's eyes for a moment wouldn't be a surprise, but she nodded at his suggestion they pick back up another time.

"If you want to we definitely can." Maybe him wanting to see her again was a good sign after all despite her flirting getting a lukewarm reception. "You can even come stop by my shop and you can try anything you want that I made that day, make up for the dessert we weren't able to have tonight." She grabbed her purseand followed him to the front of the restaurant and back outside, she was still curious about what had suddenly come up to pull Mydei away but got the sense of urgency that whatever happened and couldn't be put off since it was urgent enough to make him cut the remainder of the date short.

"If whatever came up is really urgent and you need to get going with the gentleman you talked to, I can walk myself home from here."

//Sooooo...

So I may have made an usfw rp blog. I don't expect it to be used that much and just fyi it is for my mains, affiliates and people I talk to frequently only and given out on request. Especially those I have established ships with.

It is kind of a little thing for me for when I want to write smut or usfw headcanons or share suggestive art. Probably barely going to be used much since I am sex repulsed IRL and I swear I fall somewhere on the autochorissexuality when it comes to fiction only.

Titans, was he really that desperate? The answer admittedly was probably, because either way he was definitely on the receiving end of something unpleasant; either piss off her mother by getting caught saying adult words around her again, or piss off her mother flirting with her despite her seeming lack of interest in him.

"I can get you more of the candies, but I won't say that to your mother. She's just a friend."

     She puts her finger to her cheek. Seeming to think it over as her cheeks puff out. “ Well… I do like those candies… but you have to tell Mama that you think she's pretty cuz I know you do. ”

He did as he was told, prepared the bath to how she liked it because he knew that more likely than not getting to use the bath period was based on her desire to be in contact with him. Or maybe she was just being generous, regardless, like much in his life it revolved around her; her desires, her whims, her needs and eliminating HER enemies.

From the other room he could clearly hear her comment about the obvious, because, of course, he didn't want to go. Why would he? There were so many more reasons he wouldn't want to be there that ultimately did not matter because if she wished it he wouldn't have a choice and he knew that chances are he didn't.

He was more a pet than anything else. A pet she did things that would be off limits for an actual beast, but still a pet.

But regardless of all that, the second part was the real reason why he went. He set the bottles out of the way but well with her reach for her to use if and as she pleased before he left the water running as he came back in the room to kneel at her feet, "I would kill anyone that touched you."

He might get punished for it but he didn't care. This was his life, his purpose and he would favor death over being replaced by someone else. Even for the parts he did not enjoy.

     She waited patiently as the other got up and headed to turn the water on. It would be for the both of them, lest he find himself on the wrong side of her. Not that he did often, but all the same. She wasn't in the mood for it today. Playing nice with these people was getting annoying. Watching the things they did when they thought no one could see was making her irritated.

      Oh, she could hardly wait to see their faces. The way people looked when they thought she was one of them and not an enemy. How betrayed they seemed to feel. Oh, it gave her such a rush. Seeing just how disgusting this place could be made her weary, though. Suppose that was part of why she'd picked it. Knowing there was darkness they refused to acknowledge. But she wasn't here to save anyone. Free them or make things better. She was going to wipe it from the star map as if it had never existed. Bit. By bit. By bit.

     “ Moze. Use those nice soaps I got from the last planet, hm? Since you've been extra good for me, I'll even help clean you up. ” It was a reward, after all, for him to join her. To feel the small disguise of the Lord Ravager in his lap. In his arms. Whatever feeling laid between them, she enjoyed the warmth. And despite better judgement, the companionship. It was nice having him to come home to. She'd call him a pet, but then, if she thought of him like that she wouldn't want to so much as lay a hand on him let alone kiss him. So – a companion. “ You don't want to go to a dreaded dinner, do you? You're not going to clean up well and you hate small talk with people you'd rather slit the throats of… but if I bring anyone else you'll get jealous, won't you? You don't like seeing me on anyone else's arm, hm? ”

[chasmanthum]

He didn't quite laugh but did chuckle a little bit. Softly jabbing Phainon's shoulder at the very idea of Phainon betraying him. Really he expected alot of snakes and vipers and he knew he would be a fool to say he knew all of them or could spot them without actually actively trying to find some fault well past what would be deemed healthy but Phainon was not it.

But still, the other possibility - that Mydei might lose himself and have to be put down, that was a more feasible possibility. Because whether he liked it or not the future was as dangerous as it was murky and he was under no delusions that he might not see the end.

And he was fine with that.

"Don't be gentle, Deliverer. I'm not some blushing virgin that's never known a man's touch. Just promise me, if you have to end me that you will keep my people safe."

Hearing that did Phainon shake his head as he leaned against Mydei. ❝ No ... I'd never do it to betray you or do something like that without reason. ❞ He was always so prideful with his competions with him, but he knew that the Prince valued his immortality, as it was his flaw that he has the next incanation of Nikador. ❝ If anything ever happens and killing you has to be the answer - I promise I'll be the one to silence your pain. ❞

It was something that indeed was painful alone to say, but he knew that one day this would happen what with the many ways that he's seen Mydei die in the past. By his own hands would only be the most satisfying ways as much as one could imagine the guilt behind it all. ❝ And I promise to be gentle, Mydeimos. ❞ There was a hint of a sly smile creeping onto his lips as he said that.
