Zombie_In_A_Box Posted August 15, 2014 Author Share Posted August 15, 2014 Quadron let out a sigh as he listened, his lips pursing into a deep frown at the words "Being royalty isn't all that good you know.". Being a royalty would be amazing. Free food, free hot water, everyone is admiring you, you get whatever the fuck you want... "Being poor isn't all that good, you know." He mocked in a cold voice, looking away from Takua. They couldn't even get the damn medicine they needed. He'd rather be royalty and get a lot of money than live like they live right now... Even if he hated all royalties from the bottom of his heart, he wouldn't refuse the money at all. He wasn't one to refuse all help... As he continued listening, his frown slowly began disappearing. Maybe it was true, at some point... "Fine, fine. You do know that no one has absolute freedom, don't you? And besides, royalties are forgiven things easier than ones who aren't royal. One of my friends, let's call him that, he was killed for going out into the forest to hunt." The Dragon said it rather bitterly. He himself got in trouble for that for so many times, but... There was no other way he could survive. "That's how life works, simply. It's not fair, and it's just plain hard." When Takua finished explaining, the Dragon closed his eyes and let out a sigh. "If you weren't this weak, you could fight back at least a bit. At least talk back to your father..." He said with a small frown. His eye slowly opened as he stared above himself. "So your mom is dead?" He asked quietly, not wanting to intentionally hurt the other - or make it seem like it - by asking about that. Dead relatives were really not a thing he liked to talk about, but... Takua seemed to have been really close to his mother. At some point, he was a bit curious.

Psychedelic002 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Takua frowned. “Of course I know no body has full freedom...” He replied quietly. Maybe if the other actually experienced how he lived, his opinion would change completely. It’s as he said, life isn’t fair. Not at all. His friend shouldn’t have been killed for hunting, the Dragon himself shouldn’t even be here for saving him. He could’ve been taking care of his family instead. Those thoughts always brought the guilt back to his mind, but he locked them away for now, deciding not to focus on it. How many times had Quadron called him weak already anyways? ‘I have talked back to my father...' the prince thought in his mind. There was a few problems with talking back, though. Number one would be that he never, ever listens. Number two, it never makes anything better. And number three, this one time he striked Takua’s old personal servant because he had enraged his dad too much with talking back. He could never, ever allow that to happen again. The Nymph visibly stiffened when the other asked if his mother was dead. He guessed in the way he talked about her, one could assume she was dead... “S-she’s not dead... kind of, but not really...” He replied quietly, clearing his throat before continuing, “She’s sick. Hasn’t woken up for a hundred and fifty years... probably never going to wake up ever again. I-It’s one of those sicknesses that has barely any chance of being cured. She would fall asleep at random times, it got worse and worse but she told everyone it was because she stayed up too long at night. It was so convincing everyone believed her until she collapsed and never woke up one day.” He ended in a whisper. Takua lifted his feet out of the water and grabbed his shoes, putting them back on, not minding the water. Quickly growing uncomfortable, the prince turned to look at Quadron’s blue eyes. “So yeah.. j-just don’t, erm, say anything please... that reminds me, uhm, do you like Bunnys?” he stuttered, forcing a fake smile on his face while attempting to change the conversation.

Zombie_In_A_Box Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 Quadron's lips parted to say something when he saw Takua's body tense. Guess it really wasn't something he should've asked... But, well, the prince began talking anyway. At first the Dragon felt really confused, but, as he continued talking, he understood about what happened. A hundred and fifty years? He thought to himself with a frown. That was ridicculous. She couldn't be alive anymore - what about food and drinking? What about water itself? What about all the bodily functions? It was simply impossible. "Don't say anything?" He asked with a frown as he stood up. "It's time to let go, don't you think?" The Dragon's voice was quiet and slightly cold. "...Bunnies?" He repeated with pure confusion as he stared at the prince. He didn't even answer it, pursing his lips into a deep frown. A quiet sigh left his mouth soon and he pushed his hands into his pockets. "Or are you too weak to admit she's dead by now? I'm pretty sure that even if she did wake up, there wouldn't be any chance of her staying alive for long, or living properly now. How does she even eat?" He asked with furrowed brows before looking away. "My father died too. I accepted it and moved on. So did my family." He said quietly, thought a twinge of pain was still in his voice. His father was probably the best Dragon ever. He was the best at hunting, yet he still had enough time for his family... "You waited for over a hundred years and you still can't deal with it? How can I now think you're weak?" He asked quietly and tossed a light, cold glare at him. "You really aren't fit to be a prince." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychedelic002 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Takua clenched his fists by his side, listening to the Dragon. Wrong, wrong, wrong. He turned around and moved so that he could be facing Quadron without having to turn his neck all the time. "That is not true. Stop it. Stop saying she's dead when she's not! S-she's still breathing, she still has a heartbeat. You can't be dead if your heart is still beating! I can't give up on her if she still has a chance. I can't tell you why she doesn't need food or water, because I don't know myself. Maybe it's because of the coma? I'm not sure. But I can tell you this," the prince's eyes were full of tears, but he refused to let them fall. His next words were said in a whisper. "If your sister was in a coma, but she was alive and had a chance to recover, be healthy and live her life again. You wouldn't give up on her." Sniffling, Takua stood up and wiped at his eyes, "Maybe I'm not for to be a prince. But let's say ths situation did happen where you were brought here. Another prince would've never let you eat, not have given you a room, never have brought you away from other Nymph's glares. Heck, you probably wouldn't even be alive right now. Because everyone else hates Dragons here." The prince finished quietly, looking back down at Quadron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombie_In_A_Box Posted August 17, 2014 Author Share Posted August 17, 2014 Quadron raised his eyebrows, annoyance in him growing with each word. "Well, here's a newsflash. If she doesn't get food or water, her brain is literally dead. She won't wake up no matter how much you wish she would. She's as good as dead now, Takua." This was probably the first time he'd used the prince's name... What he said next only made him frown. "No, I wouldn't. If she slept for a fucking hundred years, she'd be as good as dead. I would kill her myself if I had to." He said quietly, talking honestly for once. When the prince continued talking, his blue eye grew... Sad, actually. "Then why don't you kill me? You clearly hate me." As he said that, he took Takua's hand and placed it over his heart. "Make this stop, then. But if you kill me, you have to do the same for your mother. She'll wake up and she won't recognize you. Why can't you let her rest peacefully? I don't know wether there is life after death, but... You have to give her her rest." He finished, letting go of his hand. The Dragon opened up his arms a bit - it could be understood as a sign of defeat or an invitation for a hug.

Psychedelic002 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Takua couldn't stop a few tears from leaking out of his eyes. As he felt the other's heartbeat and listened to his words, the prince bit back small sobs. "I can't kill you," he managed to whisper, looking straight into Quadron's blue eyes. "I can't kill you. You've done nothing wrong. You have a family to get back to, a-and your own life... you can't die because I'm a weak idiot. You saved my life, even though you obviously hate me... but just so you know, I don't hate you. So stop thinking that," Sniffling, the Nymph looked at the open arms nervously. Was he inviting... A hug? Hesitantly, Takua took a step forward and wrapped his arms around the Dragon's neck, burying his face in his shoulder. "B-but, I can't kill my mom either. I know this will sound stupid, but she was my... My best friend. My whole life she was the only person there to listen and help me. It's not as simple as you think. I know I'm being selfish, but just for once…" he finished quietly, breaking away from Dragon and wiping the rest of the tears from his eyes. "Sorry." The prince apologized, hoping that he didn't make Quadron uncomfortable or anything. Forcing a small smile, Takua spoke again, "We got off to a pretty bad start. Why don't we start over? Since you'll be here for a while, having a friend wouldn't be that bad, right?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombie_In_A_Box Posted August 17, 2014 Author Share Posted August 17, 2014 Quadron let out a quiet sigh as he listened, looking away for the moment. This guy... When the other hugged him, the blond, after a few seconds, just quietly wrapped his arms around the male's body. He'd done this so many times to his sister... The Dragon looked up with a small frown on his face as he lightly stroked Takua's back. "You have enough reasons to hate me, though." He muttered out. "The fact that I'm a Dragon is enough. I threatened to kill you." He said quietly before sighing out softly. It actually felt pretty nice holding him like this... Maybe he longed for human contact like this... Maybe he did. "Is it really that much better? If she was your friend, you have to know when to let go. She can't listen to you anymore... But..." There, Quadron let out a heavy sigh and shook his head. "Maybe I can." He finally said and looked up at the prince with pursed lips. "As long as you're not too whiny." He added with a faint smirk. The Dragon reached out to tuck in a strand of hair behind Takua's ear with a quiet sigh. "Sure." He answered quietly to what he said next and looked away. "Don't expect me to be some softie, though." He grumbled out and pushed his hands into pockets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychedelic002 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Takua frowned when the Dragon told him that one of the reasons he should hate him was the fact that he was the other species. "Why? It shouldn't matter if you're a Dragon or a Nymph. So what if you're a Dragon? It's the person inside that counts, not... Not what species you're born as. It's unfair to judge somebody it's because of their species... Y'know?... " the prince sighed out. Why was everyone like this? It honestly didn't matter what you're born as. Unfortunately, pretty much no body else thinks the same way as he did. His blue eyes widened at what Quadron told him next. Would he honestly listen...? Takua nodded a sincere thankyou at that. Somehow his eyes widened more when the other moved away a strand of hair that was infront of his face. When did he suddenly get so touchy? It was kind of... Nice, really. Last time he had a proper hug was from a good friend of his a few years ago before he died. It seemed like everyone he got close to leaves in one way or another... Putting away the thoughts, the prince laughed at the other's next words. "Wouldn't dream about it." He replied, even though truthfully he wanted to say 'What were you just doing now then?'. He figured not to, seeing as how he might Accidentally enrage the Dragon or something. And he didn't want to risk that, especially now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombie_In_A_Box Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 Quadron let out a quiet huff at all the talk about how species didn't matter. "I think that too... No, I did think that, before. Now it's just... I just deal with it." He said quietly, a small frown on his face. "Not like we can change anything." He muttered out quietly and let out a heavy sigh. Why was he acting like this around the guy? It wasn't like him... And at the same time it was. Guess Takua really did remind him too much of his sister. He acted like the best big brother around her - his protectiveness of her probably moved to Takua for the moment... Guess he'd have to deal with this as well. The Dragon looked around with a small frown on his face. "What else am I supposed to do here, anyway? Do I just follow you like some dog?" He was certain that Nymphs thought of Dragons as dirty animals, nothing more. He sighed and glanced back at the prince, his empty socket showing for a moment from the movement of his hair. "Come on. I don't want to spend the eternity here." He said as he motioned at the garden around them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychedelic002 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Takua frowned when the Dragon said he just 'dealed with it'. What was that even supposed to mean? Talk about confusing. The prince frowned again at his next words. Follow him like a dog? That's a worse way to put it, even though that was basically what he had to do, but he didn't have to follow him like a dog. The servants were allowed to do what they wanted sometimes, thigh telling the other this would probably get him mad. How do you explain it without it sounding awful? "You would just stay with me for the day, really..." He said quietly. Takua nodded when Quadron said they should get going. Even though this place was really nice, and he usually stayed here for hours rather than ten minutes or so, he figured the other wouldn't appreciate staying here against his will. "It's pretty boring here, at the castle," the raven begun as he also started to walk, "there's never anything to do... What do you usually do to have fun?" He asked kindly, opening the door to head back into the castle. Right when they walked in, a small group of at least four guards came passing by. The guards each stopped their chatting and laughter when they put their eyes onto the Dragon. Two of then came over, confusion and anger apparent on their faces. "Prince Takua." They bowed before continuing, "We do not wish to be rude, by why is that filthy creature even in your presence? Surely he belongs in a pig pile." The prince furrowed his brows together, glancing at Quadron before replying in a stern voice. "He is not a filthy creature. How is asking that not rude?!" The guard who spoke before seemed shocked by Takua's answer. "But your majesty, he's a Dragon. Surely the King hasn't agreed into letting this animal near you. Come with us, my prince. " He finished, giving a dirty glare at the Dragon while lightly grabbing the raven's wrist, who quickly pulled away, "Just go back to your work or something. If you have a problem talk to my father," He said, glaring the same way the other had been glaring at Quadron, his past happy mood turned around completely.

Zombie_In_A_Box Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 Quadron sighed heavily when the other said what he would have to do. So, basically he was Takua's personal slave. A pet. Great... The Dragon's mood dropped when he thought just how much this affected his pride and all. He wouldn't even be a proper Dragon after this... No, why the hell hasn't he even killed this guy yet? He had the chance to just kill everyone, each of the Nymph's royal family... All he would have to do would turn into his beast form and... And Dragons would be the rulling race. While they walked out of the garden, Quadron huffed quietly at the question. "I just spend time with my sister." He couldn't really allow himself to have a lot of fun... He had to hunt for food, he had to fight back the unfair guards and all... The blond didn't even realize there were some other people staring at them when they entered the castle again. He only raised his head when he heard another voice... The Dragon felt himself baring his fangs, his hands clenching into fists. "You belong in a pig pile." He growled out quietly as he stepped back a bit. He still valued his life a bit... As the prince talked, he took the glares with glares of his own. When Takua's wrist was taken, the blond didn't even realize he took a step towards the guard. Was he going to... Protect this guy?.. "Go away already. You probably have jobs to do." The Dragon growled out, his body tense, ready to attack if needed. "This guy'll decide for himself what to do." He added with a scowl as he raised his head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychedelic002 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Takua huffed quietly. He'd only spoken to these guards a few times, never because they simply wanted a friendly conversation, but whenever they thought something was wrong. The guard scowled and went to push the Dragon slightly when he took a step forward, "who are you to talk to me like that? You're just a Drago-" "Stop it before I get my dad into this. You want answers as to why he's here? Ask Anakin." The prince interrupted, voice angry but it wasn't spoken loudly. The guard widened his eyes, shooting another glare to the Quadron as to say 'this is your fault', but nodded anyways. "I apologize, my prince. We will be on our way now." Giving one last bow, the guards returned to the others who looked very confused and walked off in the direction they were previously going to. Takua silently groaned in frustration and began to walk also. He snuck a quick glance at the blonde, "There's gonna be a lot of people around here like that... So just ignore them. Sorry." He said quietly. Clearing his throat, he then said, "What kind of things did you do when you spent time with your sister then?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombie_In_A_Box Posted August 20, 2014 Author Share Posted August 20, 2014 Quadron's body tensed up as he was pushed away, so he didn't move an inch, but anger still rose up inside of him. Just as he opened his mouth to tell the guard to fuck off, Takua began talking himself. The Dragon bared his fangs and let out a quiet, warning growl at the glare he received from the guard before they all walked off. He glared at them up until the moment they were no longer in his vision. He absolutely hated them. He wished they all could just... Die. "I can't just ignore them. I will not let them treat me like trash." He hissed out angrily as he walked with the prince. The blond tried to calm down, hoping there wouldn't be any more people like that for a while... Hearing the question, he let out a heavy sigh and stared in front of him. "I mostly read for her, or we go take some walks. We don't do much... We can't, actually. Her body's too weak." The Dragon said quietly as he glanced away. He didn't want to talk about her too much... Each time he was reminded of the girl, he only missed her more. He wanted to see her already... He wanted to be with her again, he wanted to see her smile... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychedelic002 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Takua nodded at what Quadron said about the guards. Unfortunately, basically everyone in this castle and whatever was claimed as Nymph territory hated the other species. This also meant they would all be like the guards, maybe less rude - maybe more. But the Dragon was just going to have to get used to it. That thought made the prince a little sad. When the blonde began to speak again, Takua listened and nodded to what he heard. He couldn't help but feel bad for his sister. If only they could cure all sicknesses. Living with barely bring able to do anything just because your body is born weak would be awful. "So... Is there anything you feel like doing? Again there isn't that much," the prince suddenly stopped mid sentence, an idea popping to mind. "Hey, have you ever made cookies?" He grinned. "It's really fun. Come on!" Not even giving time for the other to object, Takua lightly grabbed Quadron's hand, not holding it too girl so that if the blonde didn't want the contact, he could just pull away. He slightly pulled the other along and a little faster than before in the other direction, towards where the kitchen was. "I haven't made cookies for a while so it would be nice. I think we still have lots of chocolate chips left, or if you don't like chocolate we can just make ginger bread cookies or something.." He rambled. The idea just popped into his head and it instantly seemed like a great idea. It would cheer up their moods -hopefully- and after they were done they could relax and eat the cookies or something.

Zombie_In_A_Box Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 Quadron grunted softly when he heard the question. Something he felt like doing? "No, nothing in particular except getting the hell out ofhere." He muttered out, unsure if the prince even heard him, seeing as he stopped and said something about cookies. Cookies? The sweet yellowish-color things that were sold in bakeries? "I've never even had some." The Dragon said simply, but soon enough he was tugged off somewhere. The blond was about to complain about his hand being held, but he didn't say anything in the end. It felt nice, another person's warmth like this... When they reached the kitchen and Takua began rambling about chocolate chips and gingerbread, Quadron felt himself getting more and more confused. "...Talk in a language I can understand." He mumbled out as he pulled his hand to himself. "Chocolate chips? Gingerbread? What are you even talking about?" He questioned with a completely confused expression. It was almost cute, how clueless he was about things like that. The Dragon let out a soft huff, a bit of smoke coming from his mouth - that often happened when he got annoyed.

Psychedelic002 Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Takua gasped when the other told him he never had a cookie. How could someone live so long without them?! "Well then we'll make the cookies extra yummy!" He declared. When they had made it to the kitchen, it was surpsisingly empty. Must be the chef's break before making dinner or something. The prince couldn't help but laugh at the clueless Dragon's question. "I am talking a language you understand. You just simple dont understand a few words. But that's okay! Chocolate chips and gingerbread are ingreidients for cookies." He explained before continuing to ramble once again. "I guess we'll make chocolate chips? I prefer that, and I hope you do too. Chocolate it pretty good. Wait. What if we made half chocolate chips, and half gingerbread? Gah, gotta check if we have them first though..." He finished, talking more to himself really than the other. Takua walked over to a large cupboard and opened it. He grabbed a bag of chocolate chips then searched around some more. Most of the stuff in his cupboard was chocolate stuff, sprinkles, icing. Things like that. But no gingerbread. "Awe. I guess we'll only have chocolate chips then." The raven said. Turning around, he made his way over to the fridge and opened it wide. "We need eggs. Could you find those please?" He asked smiling, before going to another cupboard to grab some flour and sugar.

Zombie_In_A_Box Posted August 23, 2014 Author Share Posted August 23, 2014 Quadron stared at the other with confusion and disbelief in his eyes. Extra yummy? Was that how Nymphs' princes talked? The Dragon huffed softly as the other laughed at him. "Alright." He murmured out at the brief explanation he got. Chocolate... Oh, if only he could get his sister some. He was sure it was the sweetest thing they could taste! The blond barely stopped himself from rolling his eyes at the non-stop rambling of Takua. Geez, this guy could get annoying... But at some point, it was actually quite cute. He seemed to be able to rant about anything. Quadron scratched his head, just staying silent through all of the other's talking. He watched the prince search through the cupboards, taking out a large bag filled with some small dark brown things. "Is that chocolate?" The Dragon questioned before turning to the fridge. At least he knew what eggs were... "How many do you need?" The blond asked, taking out one for the start. He glanced back at Takua with a faint smile on his face. The Dragon's lips parted to let out a soft sigh. He'd love to do this with his sister someday... Maybe someday he would find a way to get them more money. Then they could buy as much chocolate and sweets as they needed... And maybe they could afford her medicine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychedelic002 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Takua turned and laughed a little when the Dragon asked if that was chocolate. Not wanting to accidently somehow offend the other by asking if he ever had chocolate, or even saw chocolate before now, the prince simply nodded a yes. He then reached up and grabbed the flour and sugar, carrying them over to a clean counter along with the chocolate chips. Upon hearing Quadron's question, he stopped for a moment to think, "Two. Oh, and we need some butter too please," the raven replied. Takua then went to another lower cupboard and grabbed two bowls, a keychain of different table spoon and a whisk. He went and laid them with the other ingridients on the counter before turning to the Dragon once again. "So, have you ever baked before? Ah, wait, stupid question. Erm... Have you ever eaten any kind of sweets anyways? Like, a cupcake or something? If you don't have the money I understand that, but just anything like that in general?" The prince asked curiously. Most 'poor' people never got the chance to really eat any of that kind of stuff Takua noticed. There were quiet a few bakeries around, but mostly the rich buy from there. Pastries are pretty expensive, but they were so good... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombie_In_A_Box Posted August 23, 2014 Author Share Posted August 23, 2014 Quadron wasn't that happy when he realized that Takua was laughing at him again. He huffed softly when the other still nodded at his question and just took out another egg. He put them on the nearest surface before searching the fridge for butter. As he took it out, he put it next to the eggs, closed the fridge and let out a quiet sigh. This was going to be awkward. He'd never baked anything before, he was bound to fail. He knew he would. Honestly, even his cooking skills were pretty damn horrible... The best he managed to make was porridge or some eggs. The Dragon blinked a few times at the question and looked away lightly. "Not really." He answered in a quiet murmur. Did this guy have to remind him of his poorness each minute? "The best I've had was something like a pie... Well, not really. It was more like bread with some fruits, and that was it." He could still remember just how happy they all were when he brought that home. It was eaten in a few days, so it would be fresh and good. The Dragon felt a smile tugging at his lips as he remembered how their neighbours even came to have a taste - the people there shared everything they had. Be it good or bad. So, Quadron often ended up hunting for others, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychedelic002 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Takua nodded at the reply he got. Were fruits rare to have for the poorer? Maybe in Dragon territory it seemed. Whenever he went out to town, the poorer people seemed to have the food and things they needed. Perhaps the Dragons were just all poorer and less well kept in general. He didn't know. "Well it still sounds nice." The raven said. He went and walked over to the oven that say next to the fridge and moved to preheat it for the cookies later on. "Well don't worry if you've never baked. There's a first time for everything. Basically, we start by mixing the dry ingredients together in one bowl and the others in another bowl. So! You can do the flour!" The prince told him, grabbing the bag of flour and placing it infront of Quadron. "So on the little spoons find a 1 cup and carefully pour the flour in then dump it in the bowl, do it a second time, then find 1/2 cup and do the same twice." He explained, hanging over the cups. Takua went and reached over to the butter and opened up the new packet. He grabbed a knife from in a drawer below him and carefully cut the right amount he needed. To be honest, the prince haven't baked for a while. A while meaning about a month or so. Usually he would bake every week, sharing the treats he made with the servants. He wasn't too sure why he hadn't been making many treats himself. After he was done cutting the butter, he placed the cut pieces in a smaller bowl and went to put them into the microwave before returning to the counter.

Zombie_In_A_Box Posted August 28, 2014 Author Share Posted August 28, 2014 Quadron couldn't believe he was starting to feel nervous. Who got nervous about baking?.. He, a Dragon, who wasn't scared to hunt down a goddamn boar was scared to bake?! That was nonsense. The blond had this small fight going on in his head as he nodded at the other absentmindedly while searching the cups for the ones he needed. Though the other's instructions seemed a bit weird, he still did it. In this situation, it was probably better to listen to someone who actually knew what he was doing instead of trying something by himself. Still, it was a bit weird, and for once, he actually didn't feel all that confident. Once the blond was done, he glanced back at the Nymph with a quiet sigh leaving his mouth. "What now?" He questioned as he ran a hand through his hair slightly. His blue eye was carefully following Takua as he walked around the kitchen. Honestly, he hoped he didn't mess something up... It would definitely be his fault, and he knew that everyone in here just waited for the smallest chance to kill him. Something like a broken cup would do!

Psychedelic002 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Takua watched Quadron nervously pouring the flour into the bowl. Was baking really that scary to the other...? Overall, it was, in a way, kind of funny... This guy seemed so strong, yet he was afraid to bake. The prince had to try harder than he wished to keep in his laughter to that though. "Okay, you did good!" He said, attempting to make the Dragon feel a little more confident. "Next you gotta find the 1/2 tablespoon and the baking soda, pour it on the spoon then into the same bowl and mix that all together with this," he explained, putting a whisk infront of the blonde. The microwave then let out a loud beep, signalling the butter was all melted. Takua went over and grabbed out the melted butter, bringing it over to the counter and the pouring it into the smaller bowl. As the prince started grabbing the eggs and cracking them into the bowl he contemplated wether or not to ask another question. It seemed like Quadron got unintentionally irritated by his questions or something and he didn't want to make the other feel annoyed. Ugh, why was this so hard? He just couldn't figure the Dragon out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombie_In_A_Box Posted September 1, 2014 Author Share Posted September 1, 2014 Quadron really couldn't help but feel relieved when he heard Takua saying that he did good. Okay, at least he didn't fuck up yet. If he only got the easy stuff like this, it would be... Easy, he guessed. Or, well, he hoped for that. When he received his next orders, the dragon simply did what he was told to - then began carefully mixing everything up, as to not make the flour just go into the air or anything. It'd probably be hard to breath and he doubted it would be too good for his eye - the missing one, or the one left, it didn't matter. However, it was awfully quiet now. "...Why're you so silent?" He mumbled out the question before putting the whisk away. "I'm done." He added with slightly pursed lips before turning to the other man. The blond tilted his head with a raised brow before huffing softly. "I thought you were one of those who never shut up, but now it's just weird. If you don't want me here, just say so."

Psychedelic002 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Takua huffed quietly and blew away a stray curl that decided to rest infront of his left eye. He finished cracking the last egg into the bowl and grabbed another whisk from the drawer below to start mixing since the Dragon next to him occupied the other whisk. The prince let out another silent huff when some of the egg and butter mixture in the bowl flew out onto the counter. Oh well, it wasn't too much anyways... The Nymph snapped his eyes over to Quadron when he muttered out something that he could barely hear, yet still managed to catch it all then declared that he had finished his mixing. He wasn't really being silent... Or maybe he was?Putting down his own whisk, Takua went and grabbed the larger bowl away from the other and began to pour the contents in the smaller bowl into the larger bowl, listening to the Dragon the whole time. With a frown upon his face, the prince sat down the bowl and stopped mixing. He just didn't understand! The Dragon seemed so annoyed and mad whatever he talked, and now that he didn't he didn't like it either. "Sorry..." the raven muttered, before hearing that last part, "What! No, it's not because I don't want you here at all! I just... I dunno, thought you didn't wanna talk or anything seeing as how you looked and sounded kind of irritated by my questions, which you don't even need to answer if you don't wanna! Y'know, it's all up to you if you wanna talk or not," Takua nervously rambled before finishing with a cough. "Annyywaaays. Could you finish mixing this for me please?" he said before walking over to a nearby cupboard and grabbing out a tray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombie_In_A_Box Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 Quadron let out a somewhat annoyed huff at what Takua said. "Sorry won't get me shit, y'know." He replied, eyes holding basically no emotion at the moment. He still wasn't sure if he should keep his shield on, or just be free, or act, or what the heck even do here. Maybe the prince wanted to kill him after all and was just waiting for him to warm up. He could never know if that was true or not! As far as he cared, Nymphs could act and get what they needed like that. He didn't want to become their prey or something like that... He still had a family to come back, and nothing was stopping him from leaving this hellhole. "I wouldn't say I really enjoy talking, but hell, silence is awkward with you." The Dragon said with a loud sigh as he leaned against the counter. "Fine, if I don't have to answer your questions, so be it. If you won't get all whiny about it when I ignore the question, go ahead and talk." The Dragon said with a roll of his eyes before turning back to the bowl. "Fine." He muttered out at the question as he walked towards the bowl and began mixing it. The blond brushed away his hair a bit, for a moment revealing the empty socket before he went back to work. "Done." He informed again, and straightened out finally. "Now what?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
