greylonerWhat: Tsume had something to discuss before he could let her visit the submarine.
Where: Random Island that the Submarine stopped to pick her up.
When: Before she visited the Sweet Death.
Warnings: None.
Blue sighed, standing nearby the beach at the island she was dropped at. Lovino wasn’t happy because it was Tsume, but she would ask for forgiveness after talking to the grey wolf and see Cheza.
She leaned against a tree, looking at the ocean quietly.
Tsume walked towards the meeting point, sensing Blue’s scent getting more intense as he got closer to it.
He looks to the shadow of the woman, leaning on the tree. Changing into his human form also to match her.
His expression gets rigid, even if he… had gotten closer to her on the last months. There was no way he would compromise Cheza and Toboe’s safety.
*She had attacked him* He kept saying to himself, and he wouldn’t have her attacking his mate or Cheza.
Leaned on the tree also, next to her.
“Hey.”
She stood quiet, only opening her eyes. “Tsume.” She said softly. She could sense suspicion on him “There is no need for you to act like that around me.”
Looks to her, serious.
“I don’t think that after the way you acted that night you can say that to me.” Says coldly, looking to the woman directly.
“I didn’t attack you” she said calmly.
“Then it was what? A love bite?” chuckles, even if nothing in him sounded like he meant it to be funny.
She looked at him with a small frown “Everyone was acting strange that night. Even you; even Toboe. Don’t tell me you didn’t notice.” If he remembered the bite, they he for sure knew very well how he had acted.
…
Okay, yes, he had acted very weird.
“Still, I didn’t attacked anyone.” His expression softened for some seconds.
No, he shouldn’t keep his guard down.
“The least you could do is give me some sort of explanation? Will it happen again?”
“I was dressed up as a vampire.” She shrugged lightly “And vampires bite people. Apparently.” Blue did read about it in stories, but stories are... well, mere stories and nothing else.
He did read about his costume afterwards…
At the party he had acted like a samurai also, serving his lord To-
Okay, he didn’t wanted to remember that.
“…” there wasn’t much he could argue about it… could he.
“Do you still feel like biting people?” asks, in a sigh.
There went all his guard.
Blue rolled her eyes “Of course not. I don’t bite people, I protect them.” She had bitten Lovino too. S/he just didn’t reply the same way Tsume did. “You gave me a bruise for days” she commented in a small chuckle.
“… You left me a weird teeth mark, so let’s call it even.” Says with a small smirk on his lips “I should had guessed that if you wanted to attack me you would do a better job at it.” Laughs, starting to walk to the submarine, goes slow as he waits for her to follow him.
Blue smirked “After so many times, of course.” At least he didn’t notice… some seduction from her part. Blue looked at the ocean for a second, before turning to Tsume again “Is everyone okay? Cheza and Toboe.”
Gives a faint smile, relaxed now “They are fine... Even if there is a new weird plant on the greenhouse” shrugs his shoulders. “But other than that, everything is very peaceful.” Looks bored to her.
“Good then. I’d like to visit them, if you allow me.” She was being a bit sarcastic since Tsume was the one choosing where to meet and refused to let her inside the submarine.
“If you hurry up we might get there before dinner” turns into a wolf, looking to her with impatience, his face turns right, showing the way. “I hope your owner hasn’t taken too much good care of you. I don’t feel like waiting for you to catch me.” Saying it, sprints into the woods. Trusting her to be able to keep his pace.
Blue immediately followed, knowing very well how to follow the grey wolf. Tsume just didn’t know how much Lovino objects about her being Tsume’s friend, but it’s not like the male cared anyway.
“By the way… are you going to do this “Christmas” thing that everyone is talking about?” asks loud as he sees her on his track.
She blinks, suddenly stopping. She looked at Tsume for a second as she ran after him once again “…Christmas?” she didn’t know what it was, but she heard about it around the internet “what is it?”
Sighs in a bored fashion “According to Toboe, it’s a holiday where you give presents to the ones you love.” Continues running, not exactly meaning that he loved blue, he just asked it because he was curious about the event.
… Blue smiled sadly internally. She didn’t have her family here. Quent... She had Lovino and Spain, Cheza, Tsume and Toboe only, and even if she was happy with them, when he mentioned “loved ones” she though about Old man.
“Is that so?” she said cheerfully. “Well, if Lovino wants something I’ll give it to him. Though tomatoes sound good, since he likes them a lot”
Notices the depressed tone, but pretends that he didn’t.
“Well, if you feel like taking a break from your owner, you can stay.” But doesn’t understand the motive of her unhappiness.
“Taking a break?” she chuckles “I like being around him a lot, believe me” he was that amusing.
“Suit yourself” continues to run.
“… Don’t you ever get bored?”
“never” she smiles happily “They make live rather interesting. Much better than hunting grey wolves.” She smirks.
“…” guess he should be glad that they weren’t starving like they used to…
Still, he missed travelling with the whole group.
“Good for you.”
“Don’t tell me you don’t like the crew you live with.” She smiles.
“It’s the same as any other.” Says indifferent “But at least Cheza is able to live there with some comfort while we travel.”
”Ah yes, the greenhouse” Blue smiled. “Humans aren’t as bad as you think.”
“And they would be even better if I didn’t had to think about them” smirks, teasingly. The path starts to open, showing that they were near where the submarine was docked.
“They are the ones who feed you, you should be at least polite about that.” She chuckled.
Stops, glaring at her.
No, that part didn’t pleased him one bit. “I try to earn what I eat”
But no, the truth was that he hadn’t done much to earn it.
Starts walking again. “I would be fine without it also.”
Blue continues walking “On a submarine for a whole week?” she smiles “don’t feel bad, there is nothing wrong about accepting food from a human”
“… there is for me, I am not like you and Toboe.” Goes slower, they were reaching the place after all.
She shrugs “it’s not like these humans want to kill you anyway.”
“One never knows. I prefer not counting on human loyalty.” Remembers his old human gang and gives a dry laugh.
Stops at the entrance of the docks. “Look, if you chose to be their dog, it’s your choice.” Looks to her, in a serious manner “But I am not like you and Toboe.”
Blue smiles “I’m glad” because that’s what made tsume himself, right?
His expression relaxes. It wasn’t like he was able to get all serious when someone said that out of the blue.
“… So, are we going in or stay the rest of the day talking?” makes a bored expression, more because he had been caught out of guard on the last one.
Blue gives him a small smirk and walks inside ahead of him. She still remembered the submarine, after all.
