He shook his head a little bit. "Trying for how long? Until you lose your temper at me again and you decide you'd rather hurt me than keep trying to play by the rules?"
You'll See Just How Crazy I Can Be (rp with Icefire, feel free to stalk!)

Derlik let out a long, almost defeated breath.
"I have to keep working, I know that, Nik. You have no reason to trust me, or my words. I really don't expect you to. But… I'll keep myself in check. I'm not going to be taking my anger out on you."
Nik shrugged faintly, remembering other times that other men had said they were sorry, they wouldn't hurt him again. And they always had. He shook his head again.

Derlik closed his eyes a moment.
"I'll let my actions speak for me then, when the time comes…"
He shrugged again, not really knowing what to say.

Derlik turned to his side, facing away from Nik. Twili shifted some, looking up. She gently nudged Nik's hand on comfort.
Nik looked down at her, summoning up a faint smile. Smoke mewed quietly.
group
Twili looked up at Nik a moment more, then gently nuzzled her head against Smoke.
Smoke purred happily.
group
Twili folded her paws, legs around Smoke. She nuzzled against him again, letting out a lot rumble.
Smoke purred again, leaning into her.
Smoke purred again, leaning into her.
group
Twili smiled some, licking the top of Smoke's head affectionately.
Smoke purred contentedly.
group
Twili nuzzled Smoke some more. Derlik glanced over, reaching down to touch Smoke's cheek. In a moment, he was human.
Smoke blinked, looking up at Derlik.
group
Derlik had already looked away, silent. Twili shifted as well, giving Smoke a smile.
Smoke smiled back, looking around quietly.
group
There wasn't really much to see. Twili reached up, fixing Smoke's hair from when she had locked him, giggling silently.
group
(might I offer you a fluffy platonic relationship in these trying times?)
(between which characters? Twili and Smoke?)
Smoke blinked at her.
group
(ye. Twili will def want to be Smoke's friend)
Twili giggled silently again, smiling at Smoke.
(:D perfect)
He cocked his head a little bit.
group
Twili raised her hand, lightly tapping her own lips. Could Smoke try to speak with her?
Smoke blinked again, unsure what she wanted.
group
Twili tilted her head some, starting to pantomime speaking.
Smoke frowned a little bit. "What do you want me to say?" he questioned uncertainly.
group
Twili giggled some, shrugging. She just wanted to talk.
Smoke blinked, still looking confused.
group
Truly giggled some again. She pulled her board out, realizing Smoke couldn't rest it most likely.
