@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *looks at him* I may not be able to truly lose my family, but I lost everyone else I met. I can't keep being sad forever, though.. *smiles gently* What would they think if they saw me sad and weeping? I bet they would prefer seeing a smile on my face~ *touches Khepri's shoulder gently, caressing it to try and comfort him* I am still here because I feel you need someone to stay with you, plus I am still your friend, no? What kind of friend leaves in the moment when he's needed most? *kind smile*

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: Try losing them and not being able to get them back... then tell me how you feel... *slumps over* Elethien, why do you still want to be around me...?

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *sad look* I've lost them many times, and they have lost me, but we always come back. Sometimes it's different than it was before- *stops and shakes head* But I assume it's not the same at all. *looks down* I'm sorry. You should have asked that to a.. normal person..

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: ... You've never lost your family have you?

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *thinks* If family dies, friends are all that's left, and they should be treasured in the same way... *looks away* It's fine, I won't force you to talk anymore if you don't want to.

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: Are your friends more important to you then your family? ... *sighs sadly* Elethien... I... I don't want to talk any more...

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: Why now, are other people lives less important than anyone else? *tilts head a bit* If you die now, or have died before, how are you going to take your revenge? *stares at him, serious* I'm sure you don't wish for them to get away like nothing happened, am I right?

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: These other people aren't Annie! I should have done something! Anything! I let us get taken! I let her die! I ran away, Elethien! What good... what am I doing now...? Nothing... Annie's killer still roams free and I can't touch him...

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: What could you do anyway? You would have probably died as well.. *gets closer* But now you're alive, and you are not letting her sacrifice go unpunished! You.. *looks at him* You are saving other people now!

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: *exploding* I watched Elethien! I was horrified and did nothing to save her! I... I let her... *tears spilling over but he wipes them away angrily* Forget it! Just leave me alone...

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *nods while listening, he understand how sad it was* That's horrible.. But I can't see how it was your fault, you helped her believing, no? Don't blame yourself for not saving her..

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: ... Elethien... *sighs* Her name was Annie... she was 13 years old when we were caught. The place was like hell and we weren't alone. It smelled like blood and mold and we couldn't see anything. She cried for mom and dad and I always held her, telling her it would be okay. She was strong, but... *voice stops, choking on his sadness* I don't want any more people to end up like her...

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *sad sigh* I assumed that becasue you were kind and loving, and I was hoping to have found someone to live my life with, but.. *looks at him with sad eyes* My memory will never fade, Khepri. Even when I will die, my new form will remember.

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: I never said I wanted to be with you! You assumed that because... because... *bites his lip until it bleeds* There's nothing good between us because there's nothing good about me. I'll fade in time, let your memories do the same...

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *raises an eyebrow* So, tricking me into thinking you were interested, then dumping me here, telling me I was nothing but a way to pass time is not playing with my feelings? *shakes head* I honestly thought about something good for the two of us..

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: I didn't play with your feelings... I never once did anything that could lead you to that conclusion...

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *frowns, but seems more sad than angry* Khepri, I would have never thought that if you hadn't played with my feelings.. *looks at him* I can only imagine your pain, but that's still no excuse to make others feel bad, do you understand?

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: ... *annoyed sigh* So you think I'm no good too? Well, whatever... *won't look at Elethien anymore, partly heart broken*

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: Well, i'm afraid I can be quite stubborn when I want to, so there's absolutely nothing you can do to make me change my mind *small smile* You are no good, in some ways.. *looks away for a moment* But I think you're better than you want to show. *nods*

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: Elethien, what will it take to make you understand!? I am no good... why won't you just listen... *starting to choke on emotions* Please....

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: What makes me different? I don't think you will bring bad luck on me, so why would that happen? *shakes head* If I die, it won't be your fault unless you kill me with your own hands, understood?

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: Everyone else did! *slumps over* What'll make you any different...?

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *shakes head* Safer for you? Well, why do it then? *frowns a bit* I don't think I will get killed just because I know you.

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: … I don’t want to tell you my story… I don’t want to even think about it. But know, it’s safer for me to not make friends and not be loved… it’ll get you killed.

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *frowns* You can't hold all of this alone, that's why I'm telling you to let it out.. *steps back* No matter how much you try, you can't forget what happened.

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: *pushes him away* Leave me alone… I don’t! I can’t! It hurts Elethien, I don’t want to remember anymore. Let me do what I’m here to do and die in peace… There’s no way you can help me anyway… you can’t bring them back… What point is there in telling you? Or letting it out?

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *silent, he can't really understand how Khepri feels, but he knows it's terrible* Khepri.. *kneels down in front of him and hugs him* I would rather miss you in sad love than in sad hate.. *caresses his back gently* I don't know what really happened, but you have all the rights to be sad! How long have you been keeping this inside? Let everything out..

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: I… I… Elethien, I’m going die soon… I don’t want you to miss me, I don’t want you to hurt or suffer because of me… *voice shaking, threatening to cry* I miss my family… I miss my home… I miss Misaki and Annie and everyone… *slumping down, loosening his grip so he fall to his knees* I don’t want anyone to feel this way…

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *not hugging back, even if he would like to* Then why do that..? Tell me.. *soft, weak voice*

Khepri: *silent for several moments then wraps his arms around Elethien, holding him tight to his chest, shaking and clearly trying not to cry* Quiet! Quiet! Just be quiet! Please! Quiet! I can’t take it! *voice cracking*

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: Why?! Why must you hurt me like this?! Why can't you understand?! *glares at him, he would like to hit him for real, but his hand won't move* Why can't I bring myself to hate you?!

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: I'm not going to fight you! No matter what you do I will not fight you! *keeps looking away, trying to avoid eye contact because that will show how sad and scared he really is* If you're so mad, then hit me! I dare you! Punch me! Hurt me! I don't care!

(He may be my favorite future child for this reason~)

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: No, no, no!! *gets closer and grabs him by the collar of his shirt to raise him again* It was not a request, it was an order!! *is looking Khepri in the eyes, and no matter how he tries to hide sadness with rage, it's clear that he feels heartbroken*

(Super sad boy! :( )

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: *falls to the ground and turns his head away, trying to hide that he’s sad* I said no. I won’t fight you Elethien. *thinks: I can’t*

(Well he thinks that if Elethien hates him, then once he dies Elethien won't suffer. He'd rather be hated and forgotten than loved and missed... Sad boy...)

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *he has been taunted, and now he won't hold back* I will teach you a lesson you will never forget, Khepri! *uses a vine to tie Khepri's ankle and make him fall* I said FIGHT ME!!

(I knew it XD The funny thing is that Khepri is hurting Elethien more by doing this instead of just telling him the truth =w= He won't let him run away, for now~)

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: No. *he's fighting back all his emotions to say this, and he's got a heck of a poker face* You're not worth the energy.

(This is so sad and soooo going in the story! The unspoken side is that Khepri is doing this out of fear of hurting Elethien, so he's being mean and trying to run away, this is the reaction he wanted...)

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *silent, speechless* Excuse me?! *growls lightly* You.. need to learn a lesson! *draws his sword and points it to Khepri* Love is an important matter to me, and I will not let this offence go unpunished! *he looks mad, but his eyes are more sad* Fight me!

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: It's easy, I don't care about anyone or anything! You're nothing but a piece of butt in meaner words to me! So get out of here Elethien! I'm not interested anymore! *shaking*

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *looks heartbroken* What.. How could you do something so horrible?! *more angry now* Playing with people's feelings, seriously?

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: Yes! You're nothing but another person to me! You mean nothing to me! Now leave! *growls angrily* Get out of my life!

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *stops* I'm in the way? *his eyes seem sad and confused* So this was nothing but a game to you? Just another conquest in the mysterious time you have left?

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: Look! I want to flirt and screw around with the time I have left! You... you're making that hard to do!

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *silent for a second* You tell me to leave, but your fear tells me to stay.. let me help you, please! *is quite worried*

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: *standing ridged, jaw set as if trying not to explode, shaking softly and staring at the floor* I'm... s-scared... Please leave me...

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *surprised* You're going to leave, now? *looks sad* Why? How could I ever stop caring about you, Khepri?

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: *startled* No! Let go of me! *shrugs him off and moves away* ... *looks torn for a moment, then decided* Elethien, stop this. Stop caring about me and move on. Alright? I'm going to leave and not look back, you do the same. I can't get closer to you.

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *shakes head and grabs Khepri by a shoulder* You are no fool! Please talk to me about that, I am more than willing to help you~ *very kind smile*

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: *looks a little distant and sad* What if... what if in that year you weren't allowed to see your family...? And it was the... *bites his lip so hard it bleeds a little* Never mind, forget I asked. Let's move on. *won't look at Elethien* I'm a fool...

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *nods* No, Khepri.. All people are strong, even if doesn't seem~ There are different types of strength, it's not all about character or brute force~ *smiles, then turns serious* one year left? Now this is hard! *thinks for a moment* I would stay with my loved ones for as ong as I can, taking them to wonderful places, so we can all have a happy memory~ Why?

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: Like you I have no doubt. But some people... aren't so strong. *bitter smile then after a long pause looks at him, serious* Elethien, what would you do if you knew you only had a year left to live...? *falls silent*

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: Everyone is strong, deep in their hearts~ *smiles and takes a flower from Khepri's hands* And the look can be deceiving, don't you agree? *small smirk* A flower is way much than what it just seems, just like people~

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: Why are flowers so fascinating? They're so beautiful and delicate yet they can be so strong. How?

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: Why am I odd, Khepri? *smiles gently and gives him more flowers to study*

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: *chuckles* Well I guess I am magical~ *smirks* You're an odd man. *looking at some flowers, studying them*

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *giggles* I don't even know what to hope! *smiles* Oh, this is magic, in a way~ *winks*

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: *silent for a moment, studying Elethien* I, I think I might be sad without you. I don't know honestly, and I wish I didn't have to find out~ *chuckles* What's with that look in your eye, Elethien? Your eyes are shining like magic~

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *chuckles, looking at Khepri with loving eyes* As long as you come back, I won't feel too sad~ Would you feel sad without me? *kind smile*

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: *trying to read Elethien and failing* I may have looked worried for you. I mean, I won't be here long, so I didn't want to take my perfectness away~ *smirks some* That would make you sad wouldn't it?

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *gently smiles and gets up* well, for now you make part of my life perfect~ *tilts head, looking at him* oh, it's nothing~ you just had a worried look on your face, but it must have been my imagination!!

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: I make your life perfect Elethien? *looking slightly nervous, but trying to seem calm* I'm fine. Why do ask?

@Moonfini:

eheheh~! thank you! Glad you like him~! ^^

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *smiles* Who? Love is what makes every life perfect and worth living~! *looks at him* And your kind of love is having a part in making my life perfect too~ *tilts head* Are you alright?

Oh hes hot! X3 lol. Love him!

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: *watching Elethien more than he should, very quiet, but once Elethien smiles at him he looks away* Perfect? Who makes your life perfect Elethien? *trying to look relaxed but failing*

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *is kneeling on the ground to care for some flowers who are not receiving enough light* I will remember those. Next time you will come by my home, they will be there~ *smiles at Khepri* Untimely demise? Well, if a life is lived with the ones who makes it perfect, it doesn't matter if it's short, right? *looks back at the flowers* But don't be afraid, I can care for myself~

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: Well, I like the gentle looking ones, like Snowbells or Blue Mists... But really all of them are beautiful~ *watching Elethien, growing aware of him* You know Elethien, being friends with me could lead you to an... untimely demise~ *smirks* It may not be wise of you~

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *smiles* I'll make some flower grow for you, and you can come see them whenever you like~ *looks at him while they walk around* Just please show me the ones you like most~!! *being in between flowers and grass is making Elethien very happy and carefree*

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: I envy you, I can't grow flowers at all~ Perhaps they hate me~ *chuckles and looks at Elethien, peacefully* You're amazing... Come! Let us explore this vast and beautiful garden then!

@ChiPolVee:

Elethioen: Thank you, but there is no need to~ *smiles happily* I prefer to take seeds and grow them myself, with love and care! *blushes a bit at the compliment* Why thank you, Khepri~ *looks at the park* Well.. I think you will see my smile a lot, in this amazing park! *looks at him, very happy*

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: I'll buy you some if you want~ *seems peaceful* You look so amazing when you smile Elethien~ I hope to see that more often~ *leading him toward a park* Is this good?

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: You guessed right *smiles back* maybe I can find some new flowers for my home too~!

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: Well, why don't we go for a walk in the park~? I imagine you like flowers and there are many in bloom right now~ *smiling at him, a kind smile*

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *watching Angra go, he seems a bit sad, then looks back at Khepri, with a small smile* Oh, yes.. don't worry. I will be fine~ *full, happy smile* Now, where should we go?

@DeathSeraph:

Angra: *glares at the smirking Khepri a little longer, growling* ... Fine! *let's him go* If you want to get hurt! Do it! But don't come to me after! *and storms away*
Khepri: *straightens his clothes* Well, well, that dog sure has a temper doesn't he~? *chuckles softly* Are you alright Elethien?

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *sighs and looks at Angra, then at Khepri, suddenly serious* if he really is the monster you say, I will find out myself, and will act how I see fit.

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: Not the most ideal situation, but I can deal, if the dog-er, if Angra will let you go for a little~
Angra: *growls more* Watch it fox! I can still kill you!
Khepri: *smug smirk* I wouldn't be so sure about that~ Besides, that would make Elethien mad~
Angra: *moves to take him by the collar of the shirt* No Elethien! I just, I just can't let you go anywhere with this monster! This, this HEATHEN!
Khepri: I hardly see how my religious views have anything to do with-
Angra: Shut it!

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: Angraaa~ *looks at him* what have I just said? *kind smile, then looks back at Khepri* it seems our date will be of three people instead of just two? *giggles cutely*

@DeathSeraph:

Angra: *growling quietly, but not talking and not letting go of Elethien*
Khepri: I wouldn't have asked if I didn't want to~ *smiles wolfishly*

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *hugs Angra back* good, thank you, Angra! *smiles gently* please, don't ever worry about losing me, alright? *turns to Khepri, smiling* oh, you really want to take me out, do you? *giggles*

@DeathSeraph:

Angra: *looks up at him with big puppy eyes then hugs him* I... alright Elethien... I trust you...
Khepri: Does that mean I can take him on a date now?
Angra: No! ... I mean... if he wants...

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *gently caresses Angra's face with both hands* oh, my dear, strong wolf~ *smiles happily* I promise you will never lose me, alright? there's no need to be worried~ *kisses his forehead*

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: *silently lets them talk*
Angra: ... *growls a little, feeling stupid* Y-yeah I know that... But I want to protect you... you're special to me too...
Khepri: *softly* He's special to a lot of people, Angra.
Angra: Shut up fox... *looks down, embarrassed* I'm... sorry Elethien... I don't like the thought of losing anyone...

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *smiles at Khepri, but then turns to Angra* is it for real? *seems a bit sad* Angra, just because I spend time with other people, it doesn't mean I will like you any less, you know that? *trying to calm Angra a bit*

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: Trust me, beautiful, the price is nothing bad, just some of you time~ And perhaps a little of your attention~ *sly wink*
Angra: I'm not afraid! I'm protecting you!
Khepri: He can protect himself.
Angra: I don't want him near-
Khepri: Another man. You can't claim two people Angra and you made your choice~
Angra: *SUPER ANGRY* I am PROTECTING him!!

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *shakes head* no, thank you~ when you say "it has a cost", I can feel it's not something I wish to pay *kind smile, looks at Angra* I understand you are worried, and I thank you for being close to me, Angra~ but really, you don't have to be so afraid, I will be alright *nods, smiling*

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: Yes, I toy with "black" magic I suppose. It interests me~ If it interests you, I'd be happy to teach you, for a price~
Angra: No! Elethien don't be interested in this crazy monster of a man!
Khepri: *annoyed* Jealousy doesn't suit you Angra.

Okay! I look forward to it! :D

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *shakes head* I was just curious.. Black Magic, huh? *thinks about it* now this is interesting~

alright!! you do the same! XD I will do that in the next PM I get to reply to~<3

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: I know a lot about a lot of people~ *smiles innocently*
Angra: BLACK MAGIC!
Khepri: I may dabble in the finer arts but no, I just know these things from experience. Why do you ask Elethien?

I will... try my best at coloring! :D And yeah sure! Just PM me with who you want me to draw or whatever and I'll draw them in my style and my version of yours so we can see the difference~ :D

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: hmmm.. *sad smile* I know Angra doesn't like talking about his past, if you know so much about him maybe you should have stayed silent about it? *tilts head* by the way, who else do you know that well?

I use markers and pencils~ but you can color (or not) how you like anyway XD we should talk about this in one of our PMs, so we can decide what to do and how! :D what do you think? <3

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: *smirks at the sound then moves away so Angra doesn't try to kill him* Yes and no. I know him, I know a lot about him. And that makes little puppy boy mad.
Angra: That's not what makes me mad! You're an arrogant, self-serving jerk!
Khepri: Wow, someone learned some new words. Very good puppy. Anyway, yeah, I met him a few weeks back and he's hated me since~ *smile*

You are so welcome lovely! And I will totally try and fail if you want! XD Just... how do you color your pictures? I could NEVER do your coloring skills justice~ But yeah! I'd be up for an art trade if you don't mind waiting a little for it!

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *shakes head* Angra! I understand you're trying to help, but you're worrying me! *a bit surprised when he feels Khepri's arms around his waist* ah! *looks back at Angra* why do you say such things? do you know eachother perhaps? *curious*

awwww, thank you agaiiiinnn!! *super ultra HUG* YEAH!! let's do it!!! like an art trade!! :D :D would you?!

@DeathSeraph:

Angra: I will write it on him then so you can see it! *take out a red marker and moves toward Khepri*
Khepri: D-don't you dare touch me with that you foul creature! *moving around Elethien to hide*
Angra: You shouldn't trust him Elethien. I bet he can mind control you or something so you can't fight him!
Khepri: I would only make him unable to fight if he asked for that~ *smirking a little and wrapping his arms around Elethien's waist, but pulls them back when Angra tries to write on him again* Knock it off dog!

I'm only kind because you deserve it because you're so great!! :D But I know what you mean, I can't draw much besides Chibis... I wish I could draw like you, so cool and adult like! We should try drawing in each other's style and see how bad we crash and burn! 8D

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *smiles at Khepri* thank you~ *looks at Angra* I don't see "bad news" on him, dear, but you shouldn't worry, even if he really was! I can fight, remember? *smiles*

yup! ^w^
thank you again~ you're really too kind to me! ^^ and well, I would love to! but sadly, I find it very hard to draw chibis >.> ...the only one I did was Pradosh, but I never managed to get such a nice chibi again! T_T

@DeathSeraph:

Khepri: *sighs begrudgingly* As you wish my darling. I will... not fight.

Angra: But Elethien! He's clearly no good! Just look at him! He's got bad news written all over him!

Hehe~ And dogs hunt foxes~ XD It works PERFECTLY!
I can't wait! I think you did an amazing job, you always do, so I can't wait!! :D Will you ever draw a chibi anyone? I really wanna see a chibi Franz and Elethien! And maybe Zora too~ XD Oh and Honore! Okay, just everyone~ X3

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: *frowns* please stop fighting now! *looks at Khepri* Khepri, please.. he's not a mutt! *looks at Angra* and Angra, he's not a monster! *looks back at Khepri for a moment, he would like to go on a date with him, but doesn't want Angra to feel bad*

ehehe~ well, he's a dog after all! ^w^ legendary or not~
will do for sure~! ^^ I'm really proud of him, it took me a long time to make him look like that, and I'm really happy with the result! ^^ so, thank you~!

@DeathSeraph:

Angra: Elethien knows I find him attractive! I don't have to tell him!

Khepri: It's not like you could anyway. But Elethien, you do look amazing~ *moves closer to him* Could I interest you in a date~?

Angra: No! Don't do it Elethien! *moving to protect him* This fox isn't good! He's a nasty, sly monster!!

Khepri: *gritting his teeth* Such big words for such a little mutt.

I think you may be right, Angra just dislikes foxes~ XD
I LOVE him!! He's such a cutie!! I do hope you draw him more! :D And we all will wait forever to see your art~ <3

@ChiPolVee:

Elethien: oh boys, thank you so much! you're too kind~! *smiles and gets closer* you don't have to fight beacuse of me~

ehehe I can see that! XD maybe Zorawar is the only fox Angra can forgive XD
thank you so much!! I'm really really happy you like him~! I wish I rememberedhad the chance to upload it earlier... >.> but still, better late than never! XD thank you again~<3

@:

eheeh~ thank you! and yeah, it's pretty old.. one day I will draw him again, so I will have a more recent image~! ^^

Angra: You are very impressive looking Elethien! *kind smile*

Khepri: Attractive, sexy, handsome, beautiful. Those are the words you're looking for, dog breath.

Angra: What?! Excuse me! I'm being polite, fox face!

Khepri: As am I, mutt. And also, nice comeback. How did you come up with it? *the two continue to fight over the proper way to tell Elethien he is very beautiful*

Khepri and Angra do NOT get along~ XD But anyway! Elethien! You look beautiful girl!!! <3 I love love love his colors! Everything looks so bright and inviting but still intimidating~ <3 It's the perfect blend~ You're an amazing artist~ And if you hadn't told me it was old, I wouldn't have been able to guess! Great job as always dear!! Also thank you for dedicating him to me! I would love to have my own Elethien~ <3
