November 25, 2010 - 3:30am — Gustiro
To be very clear you do not need to ask permission to interact with any of my characters in anyway. Friendly hellos or predatory attacks. All I ask is if the interaction is out of aggression make sure it's 100% in character and has no drama-lama out-of-character resentment behind it nor any intentions to manipulate me and those around me in some OOC manner, that's just rude people. If it's all in good humor and fun (no matter how dark rip) then that's a greenlight. With that said I think I may start playing the old way I use to since I can't keep up with everyone anymore anyway. If my characters, Gustiro in particular, become too much for you then you will have to contact me directly and I will put in more effort to avoid bugging you and your characters. Otherwise, Gustiro is going to be Gustiro and a pain in people's butts again. Well, maybe not as bad as he use to be, he is getting up there in age after all.

This loser just needs a overhaul. RIP

He seems to be having a bit of trouble remembering things. Hesitant when approached by someone he hasn't seen in a while because of it. Has fallen back into some old habits when Dinah Moon or his children aren't around.

Xemi, XD DinahMoon, The red

Xemi, XD

DinahMoon,
The red bull looked up at the ivory doe with a distant, disconnected look. His mind swam. He had no intentions of telling her, at least not at that moment. The chance of her running off to revenge his condition was too great and he would have been on her heels to defend her well being. No, not today. Perhaps when his body could better handle another fight.
"Is no matter..."

Dinah knew the bull too well,

Dinah knew the bull too well, his answer was expected.
"It does very much matter."
She paced and scanned her horizon for a while before the red bull closed his eyes. She already knew who did it. She smelled their blood on Gustiro, but she wanted to be absolutely certain. His uncooperation only fueled her more, and she set off to avenge her bull.

The gray buck stepped

The gray buck stepped forward, ears pressed gingerly against his skull, and body posture low. He didn't enjoy being submissive, but it seemed the only way to catch the big, red ones attention without an all out fight. He lightly cleared his throat, then spoke. I believe you mistook me for someone else earlier, He started lamely, almost bitterly as he realized the affection he'd been met with was most likely meant for another. Still, he continued on. I'm sorry I ran away. I don't much care for fighting. It's not my thing. Too much anger. Vegas inched ever closer, dropping his body lower the closer he got to the red bull.

I don't want to fight you.. But if you'll have me, I would like to sit with you. I can tell you're mad, so you can say no if you want. It's okay. Ears pulled forwards briefly before flopping back down against his neck. And then he waited. Waited for the sting of rejection from the one creature in the entire forest who had made him feel wanted almost instantly.

The red bull was not a pretty

The red bull was not a pretty sight. He was not even completely recovered from previous fights and disagreements. The blood oozed down his legs and trickled along his sides as gaping wounds pulsed and stretched. A bubbling mess dripped from the jaws of the bone mask which sat slightly crooked now, hiding away any damage that may have snuck passed the protective skull. His aching body trembled as the adrenaline continued to fight weakness and pain making the bull just that much as dangerous as earlier. He stared hard at the gray stag through the empty eye sockets with suspicion. Though something else lingered in those dark brown eyes, a deep, suffering longing.
Gustiro rolled his thick shoulders in attempt to loosen the tense muscles and failed miserably. He felt sick with anger and frustration. His body burned for more physical conflict to shut out the raging emotions and furious thoughts. He wanted to hurt someone and he wanted to feel the abuse in return. Though few gave him what he wanted and others prevented him from engaging further. Still, this strangers words, his posture...
He was quiet. He hesitated for quite sometime. This was not who he thought it was. In a way he had known in the beginning but somehow he had hoped, he had delusion himself. Even now a part of him reached for that illusion. Perhaps if Dinah Moon was there he would have rejected this stranger but with her absence...
Gustiro stepped forward. Hesitated. And then quickly he was at Vegas' side. He would rub the lower jaw of the skull mask against the stag's back leaving a trail of red that seeped from under the mask. And he would cling for dear life, another life preserve, something to save him from this drowning sensation. Desperation.

The red is on his feet after

The red is on his feet after long, agonizing minutes of complete and total silence. Unsure, Vegas steps back as the bull steps forward, but instead of being met by a pair of massive antlers, he is met with touch. Affection. Not even two heartbeats later and the male is right against his side, red pressed flush to gray. There is confusion from the gray as he feels a heavy skull being dragged across his back. He shivers against the feeling, ears pinning back once again. And then there is something hot. And sticky. His skin flinches and twists under the bulls mask as the others blood drips freely onto his already wounded form. But other than a slight angle of his head he does not move. He is afraid of the massive bull and his power, but he longs for touch almost as much as the other. He wants to feel needed. To have a purpose.

Slowly, he lets out a shaky breath as a small thank you is uttered. Vegas clears his throat again, feeling a little nervous now that he has the very large male hanging off of his tiny self. However, he doesn't really mind.. he's just a little lost. Confused, too, as he is obviously not who the red bull thought at first, but.. here the other is, clinging to him as if he was the only rock in a sea of oil. Suddenly he is unsure. Should he be himself? Or should he just.. stand there like a lump that can breathe. So many questions, but one that is bothering him more than any other:

Do you have a name? He deserved that, at least - or so Vegas thought.

Again the stag is met with

Again the stag is met with silence. At least for a stretch of time. Finally the bull's vocals awaken. Low, quiet, ragged with exhaustion and growing pain as the adrenaline begins to fade. "Gustiro," the red bull murmurs and this is all he gives. A simple answer to a simple question.

Gus..tiro.. Huh. He angles his head slightly so its resting against the bulls ribcage. Uh.. I'm Vegas.

"Just because I'm not strong

"Just because I'm not strong enough to chase you off right now doesn't mean I've started liking you," she grumbled, watching him suspiciously. "I'm just not in the mood for a fight."

Dark brown eyes that moments

Dark brown eyes that moments ago shown quiet concern morphed into something harder, a mixture of disgust and frustration. The red bull suddenly snorted, a forceful rush of air from his nostrils that gushed from the long muzzle of the skull mask. "Is have no need for you to like me," he spat the words out as if there was a foul taste in his mouth.
Amadahy was not the only one damaged. Gustiro was still a mess from several fights. His fur matted and caked in old blood showing little sign of any attempts to clean himself up. It was a wonder the bull still had the energy to stand much less go sniffing the brown doe that had never shown him anything but mistrust and distaste.
"Is wonder why is waste energy on any of you animals. Ungrateful, untrustworthy. None know meaning of loyalty or gratitude. Was better off in world of steal and sunless skies."
"No matter no more. Have own to care for now." The bull straightened up just a bit more. "Let the wolves have you then," and with that last curse he left to return to his mate without a single look back.

"I didn't say I hated you

"I didn't say I hated you either," she murmured, looking coldly at him. "Why did you come if you don't care? Why did you ever help me if you don't care? In turn, why did I ever let you help me if I didn't care at some point?" She frowned, shaking her head very slightly. Some fresh blood dripped down from a neck wound. "You're an animal too," she grinned maliciously. "We're all animals here, Gustiro, in case you didn't notice. As for loyalty? Well, maybe it's you who has no idea what that is." The doe shrugged, laying her head down. "I promised I would kill you once, Gustiro, but I don't need to anymore. You've done that yourself. As for wolves?" A grin twisted her face, morphed it. "They've already got me." She had called the last sentences across the pond, a strenuous effort. "Like I said, I don't hate you." Then, softer. "I remember what you did for me. And I don't like owing people."

"You fool." The chimera had

"You fool." The chimera had found the red bull in the dark of the night when the forest was quiet and there were none to save them from themselves. "I knew you were a fool the first time I saw you, but I prove myself to be the worse to have believed that you would not go so low." The shepherd rounded on him, circled, though he never came too close despite his obvious desire to lunge and throw stone-sharpened tines deep into red flesh. "Do you have any idea of the pain he has gone through to see that you and even your beloved bitch are kept safe? Do you know how deeply he cared for you? Depended on you? He gave you a piece of himself to hold and this is how you thank him for risking that to you?" The circle was completed and as he came to Gustiro's front again, he paced, rage keeping him from holding still, tail lifted and lashing behind him. "You're no better than the family that abandoned him. You claim to care, to be loyal, they say, but I see none of it in you!" A snarl ripped through him, forcing his hackles to lift higher than they were before, the length of fur along his spine following suit. "You turn your tines on him for the slightest of things- All your Dinah had to do was ignore his taunts and if his tine scraped her, it was she who threw herself into it! He walked away in the end and she came for more. She came asking for death and I would have given it to her thrice over had it not been Eli who called me off the chase! He saved your wench and this is how you repay him?! Just as he came after me; threatened me to keep away from you for YOUR SAFETY. You are blind! Even now he keeps you safe when I would love nothing more than to tear the heart of you and your woman from your breasts and feed the beating organs to your child!" The coarseness of his voice is owed to the constant growl in his throat. It spills freely when he pauses to draw in breath or collect his madness ridden thoughts. "Don't ever dare to think him the traitor between the two of you for you are the one who turned against him. It was I who should have been at the end of your antlers. I was the one you were jealous of. I was the one who rested near your woman and sought to kill you when you threw your fit. I was the one who taunted Dinah first and sought to rip her throat out when she came asking for it and I'm the one who would seek your death now. Every one of these deeds has been halted by The Blue whose blood you spilled today - the one you and your family are indebted to, you blithering idiot."

It's a long time before she

It's a long time before she calms herself enough to work up enough nerve to approach the towering bull, and almost as long before she finally convinces her hooves to cooperate. Tree by tree, clump by clump of tall, protecting grass, Phai makes her way towards Gustiro. Each dart from one piece of cover to the next brings on a worsening of tremors as she slinks closer and closer. She watches him doze from behind the meager safety of a spry birch's trunk for what feels like eternity before she manages to force his name past the lump lodged in her throat, tentative and quavering.
"G..." No turning back now. "Gus..?"

The red bull slowly raises

The red bull slowly raises his heavily antlered head. His dark brown eyes do not meet the soft brown form of the doe but the twist of an ear to aim in her direction signals that he knows she is there. He stares into the distance, holding it steadily there with determination as if he feared even a glance at her may send her away. A quiver runs along the crimson hide yet he does not rise to his hooves.

Uncertain, the doe steels

Uncertain, the doe steels herself and creeps from behind her birch shield, wondering if she'd spoken loudly enough - but the motion of his head sends her scuttling several paces back again, although not quite so far as the tree.
She hadn't shaken so badly in a long time.
When the bull stays put, however, she takes a deep breath and stands her ground.
"Gustiro," she starts again, softly, "I don't know where I stand with you."
Phai's brow creases more deeply with worry as soon as the words start. What if he'd just twitched his ear in his sleep and happened to look up, and now she'd gone and alerted him to her presence while so close?
What if he was mad?
What if, what if!
None of the reasons were truly logical, but fear doesn't generally believe in such things as reason.
One front hoof edges away without her putting thought to it.

The bull's ears slowly fold

The bull's ears slowly fold back against his head as she speaks. His throat tightens making the muscles more defined and his breath stilled for a moment as he continued to stare into nothing. He was stiff like stone. The knurled skull and the jagged antlers nearly made him appear a lifeless gargoyle.
The hush and stillness is broken as he heaves a sigh to release the held breath. He speaks low and level. An almost dead tone compared to when he called to the brown doe when she made to leave a few times earlier.
"What Phai' want Gus' do?"

His stiffness brings a tensing of her own, her frame poised to bolt should she find need, but a flat tone was one of the last things she'd expected; it takes her a few frozen moments to comprehend.
Want him to do?
"I don't know," she answers honestly, with the beginnings of control over the quiver. "Just... The last sight I had of you was your lowered antlers running me off. At least tell me if you intend to chase me away again. I won't stay where I'm not welcome."

His eyes fluttered behind the

His eyes fluttered behind the bone mask. "Don't know," he answered with his own honesty, the tone still flat but breathless. His eyes drift to her with a new searching look. They seemed to almost be questioning her as if she knew the answer to her own question.
"Is not..." he began and paused for a stretched moment before finishing, "...unwelcome."
He shifted his weight to try and relieve his discomfort. So stiffly and carefully, a struggle to keep his movements less threatening though it may have seemed the opposite to someone searching for trouble.

Her hooves shift their stance

Her hooves shift their stance as he shifts his weight, but the doe moves little more than a few inches. Her golden gaze stays fixed upon him, wondering what hides behind the mask.
How could he not know? 'Not unwelcome' was all she got? A second shuffling of feet betrays her insecurity and frustration, though any passer-by would have had to have been blind not to see the anxiety before. She takes a deep breath before nerves and indignation run away with her. At least he hadn't condemned her yet. There was that. At least there was that, now; she'd been unsure the last few times they'd met.
"...But neither do I feel welcome any more." Her eyes turn away, taking interest in the tree she'd used for shelter shortly before. Something solid, stable. Tempting.
No, she reprimands herself firmly, casting her gaze downwards. Not yet.
"I don't know what else to say."

It seemed Gustiro did not

It seemed Gustiro did not know what to say either for after she finished speaking there was only silence. His eyes drifted away again though rather then holding onto some distant point they clouded, focused on nothing particular. He slowly lowered his head to the ground and his body sagged in exhaustion.

(It's alright. XD Though I really should go to bed now. Only got on because I couldn't sleep earlier. It was good seeing you!<3)

The doe glances at him

The doe glances at him sidelong, wary of his movements, but remains as she is for a minute or so before succumbing to her own weariness.
"I'm sorry things.. aren't like they were," she murmurs, "but... I'm.. I am glad you're alright." Phai edges away hesitantly, a lack of confidence evident in her motions and the way she carries herself, head low. "I'll let you sleep."
With a couple of uncertain backwards glances, she moves off into the grass.
She had some thinking to do, and it looked like he did, too.

Earlier, a listless Dinah

Earlier, a listless Dinah Moon approaches the giant willow tree after briefly greeting Ciel and his tiny comrade who were making their way to their family.

Family.

How Dinah missed her own.

The lonely white doe nestled herself into her cool, shady bed underneith the giant willow. With every breeze the branches dance around her, occasionally slapping her in the face with a quick gust of wind as if to say dance. But she doesn't dance, and hasn't for some time. She sleeps instead.

And then an oh so familiar warmth.

A body wrapped around her.

She knows it's Gustiro, and knows he's fallen asleep beside her, but she doesn't wake him. The moment is too perfect, and she wants nothing more than to stay right there forever.

(Just a lil something. No reply necessary.)
