((Private RP for Kougaiji & Yukina - Continuing from where this left off.

May or may not be AU, we'll see if they behave or not. ;D

Goes AU part of the way through. Also this post is now rated R for adult situations.))

*meanwhile, at the safe hot springs, enter one tired and slightly bloody Kougaiji*

Okay, so that wasn't a shortcut.

*leaning back, and shifting her so he's cradling her to him with her head on his shoulder*

Suddenly I'm so tired. *hand in her hair, stroking slowly*

I wish I could take you with me.

[teargem]

.... I wish you could, too. *sighing softly, snuggling against him* I want to be there for you.

[houtou_prince]

*still stroking her hair*

It wouldn't be safe for you, even though you don't look like a youkai from my world. *fingertips absentmindedly tracing over her ear on their path through her hair* You're still youkai, so the wave might affect you too. I couldn't stand for that to happen.

You wouldn't be able to stay with me at Houtou. I won't give her any more hostages.

[teargem]

*shivering a little, although whether that's from the horror of being subject to the Minus Wave or from the ear tracing remains to be seen*

I know... *lifting her head slightly to look at him* But being without you... it's more unbearable to me than any of that.

[houtou_prince]

*kissing her forehead* I feel the same way. I don't want to lose you now that I've found you.

((I have to go for a while. I'll be back online later tonight. ♥))

[teargem]

*managing a smile, brushing his hair away from his forehead* You have me right now, don't you? We need to focus on the present right now...

((Have fuuuun. XD))

[houtou_prince]

*one finger moving over the curves of her face*

Maybe you're right. *and somehow managing a smile too* Maybe we should think about getting out of the water sometime soon?

[teargem]

..... ah, that's probably a good idea. *suddenly remembering that he's pretty much naked and her kimono neck is still hanging off her shoulders* ...... *oh look, the blush came back*

[houtou_prince]

*thinking that she's pretty when she's blushing, but doesn't want to make it worse by saying so*

Is something wrong? ... *sigh* I still need to get the blood out of my clothes too. Maybe asking for soap wouldn't be such a bad idea.

[teargem]

No, everything's fine! .... *studying his clothes* .... *then reaching out of the water to dig out a little bag from her kimono and hand it over* Here. It's not a lot, but I put all of the soap flakes I could shake off in here.

[houtou_prince]

Thank you. I'm sure it will help. *can't resist giving her a little kiss*

Now if only we had some... *looking at the edge of the springs, where the island has suddenly decided to provide towels, soap, and bathrobes - maybe the island is a romantic too*

...towels. ... That was too easy.

[teargem]

..... Was it eavesdropping? *but omg soap *-* and TOWELS*

[houtou_prince]

...Probably. That should make things easier. *once again trapped until Yukina gets up, but not going to mention it this time*

[teargem]

*actually noticing this time*

... I seem to be doing this often, don't I? *giving into temptation to kiss him briefly, then getting up and heading over to the edge to gather up the soap and towels, etc.*

[houtou_prince]

*that gets a smile* You still didn't hear me complain, did you?

*realizing he can't reach his clothes, so he's getting out of the water to walk over and pick them up* I wish cleaning blood out of clothing wasn't a familiar task.

[teargem]

I can understand that. But at least that means it's not as difficult now?

..... *giving the towels a thoughtful glance, then looking down at herself-- and, without really thinking about it, letting the kimono drop further*
