Who: Peony and Jade
What: making up after a fight.
When: April 8th, 2009
Where: Peony's chamber
Why: Cause we can.
Warnings: none?
Peony: Bastard. *doesn't look up from his copy of the Quibbler Luna brought for him*
Jade: Quite possibly. *just kind of stands there, waiting for the lecture*
Peony: It's a well established fact.
Jade: I'll add it to my resume, then.
Peony: You mean it isn't already?
Jade: It had the term 'Magnificent' in front of it, however, I've a feeling you wouldn't agree.
Peony: Magnificent bastard? Sounds about right. *sighs and sets down the Quibbler* Though it's not the compliment you think it is.
Jade: Mmm. *has nothing to say for once*
Peony: Unless you're here to apologize, I don't have anything else to say to you.
Jade: *actually considers just turning around and leaving* *decides to swallow his pride instead, then walks forward and sits down right by Peony's leg, resting his head on Peony's knee*
Peony: *runs his fingers through Jade's hair* Yeah, I'm sorry, too. Now explain yourself.
Jade: What is there to explain? *sighs as he feels Peony's fingers through his hair*
Peony: Everything.
Jade: ...I was angry.
Peony: *sighs* I guess that'll do for most of it.
Jade: I didn't mean what I said to you.
Peony: That wasn't what was left unexplained by your anger. But it's nice to hear that.
Jade: Then what else?
Peony: Lemming.
Jade: ...What about him?
Peony: That's exactly the problem, Jade. How can you refer to him as a lemming?
Jade: Its an affectionate nickname. *LOL NOT*
Peony: Excuse my language, but bullshit, Jade.
Jade: He dived off a ledge, and I saved him.
Peony: You had me and everyone else believing you meant an actual furry little creature.
Jade: That was the point.
Peony: *pinches Jade's ear*
Jade: Ow.
Peony: It's one thing to treat your pets like children. It's acceptably eccentric. *pinches harder* But to treat a child like a pet isn't right.
Jade: I didn't treat him like a pet, sir.
Peony: Talking about him like he's your pet isn't much better.
Jade: Would you rather I tell everyone the location of Sync the Tempest? In a public area?
Peony: No. *sighs* I don't want to fight anymore.
Jade: Neither do I. *reaches up with a hand*
Peony: It's torture not talking to you because I'm angry with you. *squeezes his hand gently* Well, it's torture not talking to you, period. But even more so when it's because we're on bad terms.
Jade: You mean it isn't torture to talk with me as well?
Peony: Only sometimes.
Jade: *leans his head back, so he's staring up at Peony* Only sometimes?
Peony: Like when you're succeeding at pissing me off.
Jade: You'd think that would be more than sometimes, then? *small smile*
Peony: It's different when you're doing it for fun.
Jade: Right, right. *hand squeeze* I'm sorry. Truly.
Peony: Even knowing you said those things in anger... they still hurt, Jade.
Jade: *pulls himself up so he's sitting next to Peony, then wraps his arms around him* I'd never consider you anything less than a brother, Peony.
Peony: *snuggles up to Jade* You'd better not.
Jade: It's been thirty years, I highly doubt I'd suddenly start hating you. *leans his forehead against Peony's crown*
Peony: Almost 30 years. You keep trying to make me older than I am.
Jade: I round up. *squeeze*
Peony: No wonder you think you're ancient.
Jade: At least a thousand years ancient, Your Majesty.
Peony: How did I make friends with such a fogey?
Jade: I brainwashed you.
Peony: I was going to accuse you of black magic, but brainwashing works, too.
Jade: Burn the witch!
Peony: You'd deserve it.
Jade: Tie me to a stake, if it'll make you feel better.
Peony: It wouldn't.
Jade: Not even setting me on fire?
Peony: I'd be short a best friend if I did that.
Jade: 'A'? So you've more than one?
Peony: Perhaps.
Jade: I'm hurt. I thought I was special.
Peony: You are special.
Jade: I suppose I'll settle for that.
Peony: *pushes Jade over and lays half on him* You're irreplaceable.
Jade: Oof. You need to warn me before doing that, Your Majesty. My old heart...
Peony: I thought you didn't have one?
Jade: It's all but disintegrated.
Peony: Then you don't need the warnings. <3
Jade: Then I'll perish.
Peony: No you won't.
Jade: Maybe. And move over a bit. You're heavy.
Peony: Make me.
Jade: *wiggles around a bit*
Peony: *clings tightly*
Jade: *wigglewiggle*
Peony: *shifts so all his weight is on Jade*
Jade: *groan* You're going to suffocate me.
Peony: I'll give you CPR.
Jade: I don't want your mouth anywhere near mine.
Peony: I have a mask, don't worry.
Jade: Gas mask, I hope.
Peony: CPR mask.
Jade: That won't protect you against the poison my body gives off, to protect me.
Peony: I've been exposed to it for most of my life. I've built up an immunity.
Jade: Oh good. Then carry on.
Peony: *rests his head on Jade's chest* Like I need your permission.
Jade: *scratches at Peony's temple* You're just a bona fide rebel, aren't you?
Peony: Always have been.
Jade: I'm not entirely comfortable with having such a rule breaking ruler.
Peony: The rules were made to be broken.
Jade: Oh ho.
Peony: Isn't that what we've always operated on?
Jade: I thought we blew them up, rather than stopping at breaking them.
Peony: Close enough.
Jade: *hugs him closer*
Peony: I didn't get the chance to tell you before our fight, but the date with Nephry went well enough.
Jade: I'm glad.
Peony: It had it's awkward moments... and I think we gave the local gossip mill something to chew on.
Jade: ...Explain in detail. I want to hear it.
Peony: We went to see a show and during the intermission, I kissed her, but forgot to close the curtains, so we were seen.
Jade: If I weren't busy, I'd applause.
Peony: *laughs* It's hardly the first time I've kissed her publicly... though the ast time was at the ball... *sighs*
Jade: I hope you understand this means I need to break up with you. Dramatically, if at all possible.
Peony: We'll make a big scene of it later.
Jade: I can't wait. <3
Peony: You've been waiting to dump me for decades, haven't you?
Jade: ...You're simply too clingy.
Peony: I like skinship, what can I say?
Jade: I need my personal space, Your Majesty! *eyes the door... lol maids*
Peony: *fingers Jade's glasses* Really?
Jade: ...
Peony: :3
Jade: ...You're... blackmailing me into this relationship?
Peony: I'm doing nothing of the sort. I have a glasses fetish, or didn't you notice?
Jade: I'm the glasses type, then?
Peony: Mmm, definitely.
Jade: Oh... Your Majesty...
Peony: >D
Jade: No... not those eyes...! You know I can't resist...! *is so not a ham*
Peony: Resistance is futile.
Jade: No...! Please...>!
Peony: More, you say?
Jade: No...! No....! Please....!
Peony: You should stop sending mixed signals.
Jade: Don't you know, Your Majesty...?
Peony: Don't I know what? *tilts head to look at Jade*
Jade: No means yes.
Peony: You won't accuse me of rape, then?
Jade: You can't rape the willing, Your Majesty.
Peony: You're always accusing my maids of raping you, I had to be sure.
Jade: They're just so rough!
Peony: I would have thought it to be the other way around.
Jade: I'm a gentle giant, Your Majesty. <3
Peony: What's there about you that's giant?
Jade: My brain, naturally.
Peony: *laughs*
Jade: *forehead bump*
Peony: Let's not fight again, okay?
Jade: For at least a few weeks.
Peony: Sounds like a deal.
Jade: Good. It's considerably more boring without you around to mock.
Peony: *sighs* Is that all I'm good for?
Jade: I suppose you make a decent best friend as well. *ponders for a moment* ...And an even better brother.
Peony: *grins* Maybe within the next year that'll be more official.
Jade: I hope so.
Peony: So do I.
Jade: Although, it would be crowded with all three of us in your bed.
Peony: Yes... it would be.
Jade: I suppose she can have my bed.
Peony: *laughs*
Jade: *smiles wide.... for Jade*
Peony: Maybe you should have your own bed?
Jade: Or maybe we can get you a bigger one.
Peony: Mmm a bigger bed.
Jade: One that won't be chewed up by rappigs, I hope?
Peony: A metal frame then?
Jade: A lead one.
Peony: That's not funny.
Jade: *sly grin*
Peony: *pokes hard*
Jade: *goes back to chuckling*
Peony: It's good to see you in such good spiritis. *grins*
Jade: Considerably better, now.
Peony: Good.
Jade: I missed you.
Peony: I missed you more.
Jade: Impossible.
Peony: Never.
Jade: The same, then.
Peony: Fine.
Jade: *scratches his temple again*
Peony: *closes his eyes* That feels nice.
Jade: *scratchscratchscratch*
Peony: *pretends to purr*
Jade: I've always wanted my own pet cat. *scratchscratch*
Peony: Then why don't you buy one?
Jade: I have a stray replica to take care of. ....That for once isn't Luke.
Peony: *laughs* How's that going?
Jade: ...The ice cream trip went surprisingly well.
Peony: Did it?
Jade: Mmm.
Peony: Still only eating vanilla?
Jade: ...I didn't even get whipped cream this time.
Peony: You need better tastebuds.
Jade: My palette is delicate.
Peony: Is that what you're calling it now?
Jade: It's always been delicate.
Peony: I thought you were just picky.
Jade: Only sometimes.
Peony: If sometimes equals all the time.
Jade: Only to annoy you. <3
Peony: *pinches Jade's cheek* How kind.
Jade: Ow.
Peony: You're such a baby.
Jade: *mock pout*
Peony: *kisses his chin*
Jade: Oh my~
Peony: That's as close to your mouth as I'm getting.
Jade: I'm hurt. *kisses his chin back*
Peony: Last time I went for the lips we didn't talk for a month.
Jade: Last time you went for the lips, we were desperately trying to... *nods over to the door*
Peony: I know.
Jade: Don't worry about having to go for them now.
Peony: I'm not worried. *laughs*
Jade: Oh good. *sneaks a hand into his own pocket, and slowly pokes Peony's leg*
Peony: *wiggles* Stop that.
Jade: Stop what? I don't know what you're talking about. *adds another finger*
Peony: Stop poking my leg.
Jade: I'm not... oh.
Peony: *B|*
Jade: I'm so... I'm sorry, Peony. I don't know what... I guess that kiss... *pokes harder*
Peony: You're sick, you know that? *laughs and gropes Jade's fingers through his pants*
Jade: *laughs and pokes the palm of his hand*
Peony: So hard.
Jade: Oh so hard.
Peony: How can you keep it in your pants?
Jade: There's a black hole.
Peony: How have I managed to not be sucked in?
Jade: I control it. Don't test me. <3
Peony: So amazing.
Jade: I know. *Jade smile*
Peony: Let's go troll some maids and get something to eat. *grins*
Jade: Sounds like a marvelous plan, Your Majesty. *runs his fingers through Peony's hair*
Peony: *gets up and pulls Jade up with him* I come up with those on occasion. *drags Jade out the door*
