Characters: OU Naoki Kashima, AU Lyle Norg
Where: First in front of the first building, then around the compound
When: Early Afternoon
Summary: After a brief scare where Lyle thought the Demi-Fiend had vanished, the pair decide to go for a walk.
Warnings: Fluff, flirting, awkward; the usual with these two.
It was too nice to put on his bio-shield. Despite the fact that the chilly October air wouldn't bother him as much, it felt so impersonal. And why not enjoy the weather before it became too cold to bare? It wasn't so bad, just enough to send a shiver down one's spine if they were exposed long enough. Even now his breath was visible, long before snow belonged on the ground. So he buried his gloved hands in his coat pockets, coming to a stop in front of Naoki's building.
So he'd overreacted a little to the Demi-Fiend being out of contact with him. I'm overly protective, Lyle admitted to himself sadly, remembering how much he fussed over his friends as well. Maybe not as much as he could, but enough. Not hearing from the older teen, when they usually were so in touch...that had been what shook him. Especially since there was an ominous heaviness to the air that he just couldn't shake off. Something that had little to do with the changing seasons.
The Legionnaire shuffled, glancing back the way he'd come. He'd probably need to request a scarf soon if walks without his ring's protection from the cold were to become a habit.
