[Standing by the directory is a redheaded man in a SeeD uniform, watching as all the people go past and maintaining a silly, amused grin on his face. He seems to be paying particular attention to the girls, especially the older ones, but everyone gets at least a little bit of attention - just memorising faces, people! It helps an instructor to know

I guess that's one word for it, eh.

[lightspears]

Well, I suppose so. "Swarm" could work.

[Swings his arms up behind his head, and leans against the directory, closing his eyes for a moment.]

Just as long as I get some especially hot chicks in my classes, I can deal with it. Can't go without my hunnies to brighten my day!

[fierybluebird]

There do seem to be slightly more hot chicks than any guys.

Well, maybe not recently. I don't keep tabs on the ratios. The hot redhead with the sharp teeth is mine though. [There's a very loud and clear unspoken "So hands off" look and tone that goes along with it.]

[Oh Marco. You're assuming that Zelos is going to acknowledge Grell as female. ...he's not, because he's a dick who actually puts effort into being ridiculously shallow.

He holds up his hands in mock surrender, and teases a little.]

Huh. A little protective, are we? Not even a bit of playful flirting? Man, you're no fun.

[fierybluebird]

[More for Marco then XD]

I'm a pirate. We hold onto what's ours.

[lightspears]

That's almost sweet. But I don't care - not like I'm taking your girl anywhere. Kinda married, man. Still gotta let the ladies know when they're beautiful!

[fierybluebird]

You're married?

[lightspears]

What, can't believe it? [Smirk. No need to mention that it's an unhappy arranged marriage, or that he kind of ditched his wife to go running off somewhere.] Not on this world, of course. Do marriages still count across realities?

[fierybluebird]

Exactly why would you want to absolve your marriage if you still have it?

[lightspears]

Because I don't want it!

[fierybluebird]

Then why did you get married?

[lightspears]

Didn't have much choice! [He says, laughing. But kiiiiind of obvious bitter there.]

[fierybluebird]

Why not?

[Arranged marriage is an anathema to the pirate whose father was more likely to just want his sons' happiness.]

[lightspears]

It was that or be executed for "treason" just because the King hates me. I figured marriage was more sensible. [Shrug.]

[fierybluebird]

Wow.

Sounds like tenryuubito. How does your wife feel about it?

[lightspears]

Never asked!

[He's not technically lying, just avoiding answering the question properly. He knows she's not too happy about it either - she's had an ongoing affair with a rather truer love. It's difficult being married to someone like Zelos, after all.]
