(Time skip? If so how much of a time skip, your call.)
A one on one please? Romance (O/O) its closed
(Yeah sure! :) Maybe jump all the way to their next meeting? ^^)
(Maybe to when they’re friends?)
(Sure! ^^)
Yuki met up at the familiar border, he has been ‘missing’ for about a couple months now. His home was a tree near the border, he always went to the border to meet up with a friend. He slowly felt different, usually he never acts like it, but now he’s acting strange, he could never tell what it was. Was he sick? Nervous? He could never figure it out. The one thing he did know was it always happened when he was near Bael… he sat down under the tree waiting for Bael to arrive.
"Hey angel," Bael said lazily, sauntering into the clearing. He didn't sit like he usually did, opting instead to lean against the tree. He'd gotten used to the angel, and found that after a while, he really didn't mind the company at all, and in fact had started to quite like his new friend.
“Hey there. Anything interesting happen?” He asked curiously, pushing his hair back out of his face.
(sorry I left for so long, we got stranded at a park with a broken car xD But I'm finally home ^^)
Bael shrugged, looking down. "Nah. Nothing interesting."
He sat then, stiffly and awkwardly, grimacing slightly as he lowered himself down. He sat uncomfortably on the rock, holding himself delicately.
"You?"
“They started a search since the last time we met, they almost caught me, but I hid well. I hate that my parents want me back…” Yuki clenches his fist, starring at the ground.
"Well, maybe they realize how empty their lives are without you," Bael said, wincing as he shifted to face Yuki. "It's a thought anyways."
Yuki chuckled. “Heh, yeah right. All they did for me is teach me being wealthily and royal is for ‘the best’ but you aren’t a prince so that statement is incorrect.”
Yuki then realized what he said and turned away. *did I just, flirt with him?”
Bael snorted a laugh. "Awww, thanks, angel," he teased. "I-ah, Satan."
He closed his eyes, gritting his teeth. "Sorry, do you mind if I spread my wings? They're killing me."
“It’s all good. Mine as well as spread my own…” Yuki grinned. He spread his beautiful white wing, bigger then other angels, mostly because he’s royalty.
Bael took them in, wide-eyed. He couldn't quite think of the word to describe them, since demons don't generally have use for the word beautiful, but he felt his heart jump regardless. They were magnificent, and suddenly he felt rather shy about showing his own wings.
"Wow," he said, laughing a little awkwardly. "You have…jeez, Yuki, those are amazing. I feel bad about showing you mine now."
He was joking, technically, but there was a little too much truth there, and he didn't show his wings, still staring at his friend's.
“I think yours will be better. But let me tell you, sometimes when I fly, these things hurt… I’m not very strong so they hurt a lot.” Yuki smiled. “Can I please see them?”
"Okay.."Bael said reluctantly. "Just, uh…promise not to laugh, okay?"
He was genuinely anxious at this point, but he slowly, painfully spread his wings, revealing them in all their lack of glory. They were ragged and dirty, missing huge chunks of feathers and crusted in dried blood. There were a couple places that were crooked, indicating old broken bones that hadn't healed properly, and they were peppered with burns. Underneath the dirt they were a soft grey, but it was almost impossible to tell. They were really quite hideous, hardly wings at all. But Bael stretched them out around him closing his eyes as he worked out the kinks and stretched them to their full extent. Their full extent wasn't very far; one of them only unfolded halfway before it stopped, his muscles straining to stretch it further, and the other one seemed to catch at a certain point, twitching downwards awkwardly.
“I think they look great! You should be afraid of them. They’re amazing! Honest.” Yuki tried to sound as genuine as possible. I mean, I do think they look great. I wonder why he’s afraid of showing them? They make him look stronger.
Bael grimaced, pulling out a couple dead feathers. "Relics of the Fall," he growled, looking at them with dislike. "They hurt all the time, and I can't fly, so what's the point? Might as well just rip 'em off."
He stopped talking then, remembering what his wings used to be. That memory, though distant, of soaring through the clouds, was the only thing keeping him from doing as he threatened. Even now, the sun soaking into the damaged feathers felt so good, easing the aches and sores that constantly plagued him in Hell.
"Useless pieces of junk," he muttered, looking away. "I'd much rather look at yours."
Yuki looked somewhat upset. He knew he was bothered, so he hid his wings. “I feel like I’m just showing off now… I’m really sorry I brought it up… you alright?”
"Nah, I wanted to stretch them. Some punks down in Hell thought it'd be funny to try and mess with them today, look, they cut open the muscles back here." He twisted to show Yuki two ragged, still bleeding cuts on his wings close to his back. "I got rid of them, of course, but it still hurts. I'll be okay though." He eyed Yuki through the corner f his vision. "Was looking forward to getting up here to talk to you. You're a welcome distraction from pain, that's for sure."
Yuki looked worried and tilted his head. “Why don’t you treat it? It could get really infected.”
"What's the point?" Bael shrugged. "Nothing stays clean in Hell, and it's not like it could really hurt me. That's the joy of it all, innit? I can get hurt as much as you please, and still be alive to take more. Might as well just let things take their course, and not worry about it. They'll heal, eventually."
(To any RPers, I have been recently having a lot of mind grains that have been pushing me away from everything. I have been light headed a lot and haven’t been able to think properly. I will be pausing out of RPs, or if necessary, leaving all of them. I’m sorry for this. I haven’t been 100% able to do anything, my anxiety is building and I need breaks. Sorry.)
(Oh, no, no worries at all!! Take all the time you need, I totally get it. <3 I hope you feel better soon :)
(Thanks, I hope we can continue when I feel more in check. Thank you soooo much for your understanding.)
(Me too, I really am enjoying this one. And of course! It's the least I can do <3)
(I’ll check in tomorrow if I feel better, I’ve been improving.)
(Woohoo, that's awesome to hear! <3)
( yee)
