Thief Hunting

[hatedbloodline]

WHO: Tiara and Fang
WHAT: Hunting down a thief
WHERE: Fayren
WHEN: Jan 4th, Late Evening

[ Though she hadn't said anything about it too blatantly, Tiara was more than a little unnerved by the incidents with the Hands of Decay recently. Poor Cui was usually the one to be squished in her arms, but the fairy was used to offering a little comfort to his Fencer. If she was surprised how gung-ho and proactive Fang was about patrolling, she never said it, precisely. Of course, she couldn't sit and worry and fret in the inn room she shared with him, which is why when he came back she had basically shoved the paper in his face and told him they were going out to capture a thief. Who knows, maybe he was connected to these Hands of Decay people! ... very unlikely, but she wouldn't stand and just let some foolish thief take advantage of other mages while they were away. Still it was nice that she let him get -some- sleep when he came back. He can't protect her properly if he as falling over, right? ]

Come Fang, it is time to begin our stakeout.

[ Did he get enough rest? Well it was probably only an few hours if that, but at least she let him get some rest all! Because she knew he would be at his best when he'd rested, and he has been working pretty hard lately. As he should! ]

...

[ Hrm, good question. Well, a good question like that only deserved an equally good answer! ]

... Yes.

[ Both. Totally totally both. ]

[fatedefyingwill]

[That was a genuinely surprising answer because she admitted to her own feeling on the matter too.]

All the more reason not to stop then~

[Yup that's his logic and he's sticking to it.]

[hatedbloodline]

[ It was the atmosphere. She couldn't help but respond to it. She chuckled softly. ]

Is that not the other way around...?

[ Though she thinks she likes his logic better. ]

I suspect if it were up to you, I would not be permitted to leave your lap at all, at times like this.

[fatedefyingwill]

Nope. Neither you or me are getting spoiled more than the other person~

[See positively flawless.]

Well I can't say that's not true. Especially not after today.

[hatedbloodline]

Hee, is that so?

[ Well she wouldn't go so far as to say FLAWless, but... she certainly had no complaints. She did giggle at that latter remark of his. ]

I might have known. This is why I believe it a poor choice to spoil you with staying in your lap so long. You become greedy~!

[fatedefyingwill]

Like you won't be tempted to just hop in my lap from now on when we've got a moment of peace.

[Is he bluffing or right on the mark? Which could it be.]

[hatedbloodline]

[ Right on the mark. But she'd play it like he was bluffing, because she enjoyed it. ]

Oh, aren't we confident. I would say the same, but you're a little too big to be a lapdog.

[ She's going to ride that joke for miles. But she nuzzles his neck briefly, toying with his hair playfully. ]

[fatedefyingwill]

[He snorted at the intentional jab.]

AS if. The most you can hope for would be me laying across your lap on a lazy day.

[hatedbloodline]

[ She grinned faintly. ]

Ah, but you are lazy enough on a regular day, how am I to tell the difference?

[ Just imagining him with his head in her lap was terribly cute to her though. ]

[fatedefyingwill]

[Rolls his eyes and leans in closer towards Tiara.]

Oh I bet you could.

[hatedbloodline]

Why Fang, I have no idea what you mean by that.

[ Though she smiled, and since he was leaning in closer to her, she did the same, until her lips pressed against a corner of his mouth. ]

[fatedefyingwill]

You're the one who brags about how well you know me~

[He chuckles feeling her lips at the corner of his mouth like that.]

[hatedbloodline]

[ She chuckles along with him, teasing him with the feel of her lips just lightly brushing against his jaw. Or maybe she was just trying to distract him from countering her. ]

Hmmm, it is not bragging if it's true.

[ That's her story and she's sticking to it! ]

Is that not something you yourself would say?

[fatedefyingwill]

[he chuckled and nipped lightly at her ear next, trying to get her composure to crumble as well.]

I guess so~ Not complaining though~

[hatedbloodline]

[ HEY WAIT he's supposed to be unable to counter her with sneaky things like that! She let out a startled noise, shivering slightly. ]

Aa~!

[ Not what? Wait, what did he say? ]

Y.. you...that is... is a first..!

[ Both the nip to her ear and him not complaining. ]

[fatedefyingwill]

[He can learn and he'll showcase that fact as many times as he can get away with it. Surprising Tiara is always worth it like that.]

Hmmmm was that a sweet noise I just heard~?

[hatedbloodline]

[ Eep. ]

N-no, of course not. Anything you have heard was a product of your wild imagination.

[fatedefyingwill]

[Uh oh she's just slipped up something vital just now.]

Really? Well there's one way to find out~

[He says as he leans up to nip at her ear again.]

[hatedbloodline]

[ Slip up? N-no! No slip ups here! Oh..dangit. ]

What are y.. oh! [ About to turn to glance at him, she let another small gasp ring out, a hand quickly covering her mouth, her cheeks pinker. Er.. uh... HE MISHEARD THAT TOO. ]

[fatedefyingwill]

[Oh he heard it loud and clear. Which is why he switches to sucking on the eartip next!]

[hatedbloodline]

[ ACK. That's a very sensitive spot, Fang! Her hand twitched, unconsciously clutching his shoulder in response. ]

N-n'gah~! O.. oh my -F..Fang, ...w.. what ah... [ Wait! Composure, hold together! She almost lost it there. ]

[fatedefyingwill]

[A very sensitive spot indeed, He would just make a note of that for future reference~]

What? Do you really want me to stop?

[hatedbloodline]

MMph... w-well... N...

[ Not really. But admitting such to him would give him an advantage over her! Hrm. Weighing the pros and cons of this - the sweet sweet feeling of him doing... that vs him being smug for making her whimper like that. ]

[fatedefyingwill]

Hmhmhmhmmm I think I'm on to something~

[Too late. Her admitting it at this point would be merely icing on the cake.]

[hatedbloodline]

[ She resists! RESISTS admitting it. Too much icing will make him -FAT-. ]

You... You sound quite sure of yourself. [ She brushed her hair back over her shoulder, debating on telling him to put his money where his mouth is. So to speak. Well, they both knew he was right, her pretending otherwise was just her way of having fun with him, teasing him. ]
