" I think it's quite enough now, Heilyx. "
The looming figure materialises beside the serpetine student, heterochromatic eyes unimpressed as a hand settles over their shoulder, cold as always. " drop it. "
" what? Do you not like it? "
" ah, " his arms hang awkwardly in the air for a moment, then he slowly lowers them to his sides. they feel a little useless now, glued stiffly to his sides. he straightened a little, eyes widened by a fraction, shining with a joy that pulled his lips into a straight line. he taps against his legs with his fists and nods once. " good. " he looks up, " the colour is nice. I thought you could match. "
/ thinking he probably dyed the patch too
ꓻ ׄ ＿＿ @studiousIy ꓹ⠀⠀the intricate patching is what caught their heterochromatic orbs attention. heilyx grasps the presented plush, already grinning ear–to–ear. ⠀“ hehe, i love it.. its got my color! “ ⁄⠀⠀ naoye ure too cute SOBS
he holds out a small brown bear in his hands, brows pinched and lips curled down. He'd patched up a toy he'd found, the stitched patch on its right cheek, an old tea-stained teal. he looks away for a moment, then clears his throat and more insistently pushes it forward. " It's for you. "
〝 why'd you want me to watch you swim around again-? ＂
ꓻ ׄ ＿＿ @notamed ꓹ⠀⠀“ enough whinin’. are you always like this to your human? “
〝 hm. the water's making the breeze cold, i don't like it- ＂
ꓻ ׄ ＿＿ @notamed ꓹ⠀⠀“ oh? ..dunno∼ i honestly forgot. hm, now that you're here, it's the perfect time to familiarize yourself with this kind of environment. “
" ...you smell like that cooking guy. "
ꓻ ׄ ＿＿ @worIdeaters ꓹ⠀⠀lips upturned to its signature t grin, pointed teeth visible. ⠀“ oh, you mean sea urchin? well.. i just ate his good cookin’. could be the food. “
" Yes, you do. The little guy with the angry face. "
ꓻ ׄ ＿＿ @worIdeaters ꓹ⠀⠀“ huh? i don't smell like anyone. “
" it's for you. " he doesn't look as he sets the large plate down, perfectly prepared meats and fruits. takes a step back, arms locked to his sides. " since you're so hungry. "
ꓻ ׄ ＿＿ @studiousIy ꓹ⠀⠀dismissive once again.. wasn't he? heilyx slumps back to the chair once seated, already grabbing for the utensil. but before they could proceed, they paused to strictly stare at the other. ⠀“ sure, sure. you gotta join though? c’mere.. stop being prickly with me. “
he looks back over, frowning, crossing his arms over his chest and shifting his weight onto his right leg. he stares at heilyx fists clenched, expectant. " stop talking and eat. It'll go cold. "
ꓻ ׄ ＿＿ @studiousIy ꓹ⠀⠀heilyx stares upon the presented dish, then, to naoye’s averted gaze. their lips are pressed for a moment, perhaps confused. since no one has ever cooked a delicious meal for them. ⠀“ hehe, sea urchin’s so nice today! maybe i won't be eating you then. “
〝 a-are you sure you could breath comfortably like that..?? i don't want you to accidentally suffocate because you used my chest as a pillow... ＂
ꓻ ׄ ＿＿ @takenotes ꓹ⠀⠀“ mmfh.. ‘m fine... feels nice. “⠀ muffled words reverberates against her chest, their arms purposely tightening for closure.
“ .. and here! this is my room. “
ꓻ ׄ ＿＿ @deathroned ꓹ⠀⠀“ looks comfy∼ who're you rooming, with seabunny? i don't see your roomie anywhere. “
“ i’m done, what do you think? ahhh,, this.. really isn’t something i’m used to wearing. “ hands fumbled slightly, unused to the feeling- it’s quite a revealing dress after all.
ꓻ ׄ ＿＿ @deathroned ꓹ⠀⠀“ hm? i don't think anything’s bad on ya. suits you just well. “⠀ hummed heilyx, whose hands can't seem to tire its invasive exploration. the digits would press into the pliant sides, which later splays across her stomach.⠀ “ mm ♡ lookie here, i could just gobble ya up silly. “⠀ the pouch of flesh is squeezed lightly to emphasize their..⠀well, cuteness aggression?
“ huh? ‘lyx— “ she’s surprised by their reaction, if the muted gasp she lets out is any indicator. heilyx’s grasp molds onto the soft flesh at her waist, webbed fingers dipping where they held. instantly, kanade flushes— embarrassed by their compliments. “ i.. i mean, we’re just trying outfits on for now! so, does this mean.,, do you like it? i really don’t wear this type of outfit at all.. it doesn’t look bad, right? “
/ seabunny.. WAHH that’s so cute
ꓻ ׄ ＿＿ @deathroned ꓹ⠀⠀a flicker of surprise had overtaken their visage, whereas mismatched irises keenly eyed every contour and design of her adorned figure. ⠀“ seabunny... you're so pretty. “⠀ mutters the serpentine, whose hands had placed against her hips.⠀ “ i gotta hide you. they can't see you like this. “
" WHAT!? How is that MY fault!? "
" hah!? what's a big chicken got to do with it!? " his expression contorts again, utter confusion, irritation. his mouth hangs open, top lip quirked at the corner before it shuts with gro and gritted teeth. " y'ur lyin' i ain't 'eard nothin' ! "
ꓻ ׄ ＿＿ @worIdeaters ꓹ⠀⠀an eyebrow quirks upon his retort. ⠀“ don't give me that crap. there's a huge chicken lady here in campus, but she ain't movin’ like a total klutz. y͟o͟u on the other hand.. you're seriously stumbling over nothing. “
" clumsy!? " he repeats in indignation, ears shooting up from the pin back against his hair. it is utter disbelief, as if he hadn't practically wiped every table with his tail every time he turns. " i ain't clumsy! 's not my fault this place is all cramped and messed up! "
〝 hmm, do you think teal suits me better, or should i try going for a different color? ＂
ꓻ ׄ ＿＿ @takenotes ꓹ⠀⠀oh. well, heilyx expected it to fit their mate perfectly, yet it's vastly different, from the flustered manner of being presented to them. “ mhm, i've got such a good eye. ♡ mousie you look so good! “ grinned the amphisbaena, pearlescent crosscut teeth shown. “ at this rate, i gotta hide you away from everyone hehehee. “
a small 'thank you' was said as the dress' zipper was undone, the clothing slipping off her as she moved to grab the dress heilyx had suggested. after fully taking off the previous and putting on the new one ₍ albiet with slight struggle ₎, she once more turned to face the serpentine with a smile〝 alright, what do you think of this one? ＂ she asked, smoothing down the fabric that hugged her figure before her gaze averted downwards due to a sudden wave of shyness washing over her
ꓻ ׄ ＿＿ @takenotes ꓹ⠀⠀fingertips traverses across the curve of her spine, nigh experimental. “ m'kay, oh i know, you should try the deep blue one mousie∼ ♪ “ as they'd suggest, the zipper is methodically undone, soon it bares the expanse of her back.
