Glitches // OxO // Closed

He laughed, shaking his head. "No, let's not hash it out in court. That sounds miserable." He replied, smiling up at Jude.

"Fine, we'll let them be," Jude smiled, pressing a quick kiss to his cheek, "–For now," He added with a laugh.

Nyx smiled. "Mhm. Alright." he replied, and kissed Jude's cheek in return. "Now let's go, I wanna see more animals!"

"We're going, we're going," Jude quietly laughed, glancing up at the intricate dome above the entrance to the zoo center, "I think this is where the bigger animals are,"

Nyx smiled. "Alright." he replied, tugging on Jude's hand to get him to walk faster. "I wanna See them." he complained.

"And you will, Nyx." Jude chuckled, rolling his eyes and trailing after him, "We're literally steps away from them. They're not goin' anywhere."

Nyx sighed. "Right, but we only have today and I want to see them all." he replied, wrinkling his nose at Jude. He tugged Jude over to the nearest exhibit.

"Yea– we have today, and like, six other zoos in the city with additional animals," Jude smiled, looking into the huge enclosure, "Though the zoo in Central Park doesn't have a freakin' rhino."

He blinked. "There are other zoos?" he asked curiously, looking at Jude and smiling. "Can we go to those, too?"

"Mhm, I mentioned earlier," Jude nodded, smiling at his bright-eyed excitement. "And…we'll put that on out to-do list. So, probably, yes."

Nyx smiled again. "Yay! Can we look at the rest of this zoo now, though?" he tugged Jude to the next exhibit, not waiting for an answer.

Jude laughed as he was pulled to the next animal enclosure. "Ooh," He quietly hummed at the sight of the two rhinos.

Nyx looked at them, eyes a bit wide as he took in everything. He was still holding onto Jude's hand, beaming happily as he looked at the rhinos.

"All the way from Africa, hmm," Jude said, softly smiling at Nyx's sunny expression.

"They're so wrinkly." Nyx commented. "Are they old?" he tipped his head slightly, looking up at Jude, then at the Rhinos again, still smiling.

"I dunno," Jude said with a little shrug, "But I'd agree that it wouldn't hurt for them to try a facemask or something," He added with a laugh.

He laughed, and kissed Jude's cheek. "But they'd need to put it on their whole bodies, so like…a body mask?" he raised his eyebrows.

"Mhm, they could do with a nice spa day. A nice bath, too?" Jude said with a cheeky smile, "And since their horns are made out of the same stuff as nails, they could get them painted!"

He grinned, laughing at Jude's descriptions. "Hmm, yes, they might like that." he replied with a nod. "Be all clean and stylish."

"Yeah, it might be fun," Jude shrugged, leaning against the short fence that distanced them from the rhino enclosure, "Plus– if they lose a few, they might even pass as unicorns."

Nyx smiled. "Well. Not without any fur they won't." he replied, leaning on Jude's arm and watching the big, lumbering creatures.

Jude chuckled, tilting his head to the side as the rhinos shuffled around, "We'll buy them a coat, then."

Nyx smirked. "That's a lot of fabric, Jude." he replied, squinting up at Jude with another smile. "For both of them?"

"I'm sure Givenchy could work something out," Jude shrugged lightly, "–The fashion company. Their Fall 2018 ready-to-wear had these huge fur coats."

Nyx nodded slowly. "Oh, okay. But still. It's a lot of fabric." He shrugged his shoulders, smiling at Jude.

"Yeah, it would be a lot," Jude nodded with a little sigh, smiling at Nyx before he looked back into the enclosure, "Sorry rhinos, I guess you can't be unicorns."

Nyx smiled again. "Nope. But they can be other things. Like…themselves." he chuckled quietly, holding onto Jude's hand.

"Yes," Jude said with a nod, smiling at Nyx before placing a little kiss on his cheek, "–They can be themselves."

Nyx let out a content sigh at the kiss to his cheek, and leaned closer to Jude. "Let's go see the next ones?"

"Mhm," Jude chimed, quietly moving along towards the next one, which was lower and speckled with little shrubs, and what seemed to be a slow-moving rock, "I think there's a tortoise in here," He smiled.
