"Why would they hate you?"

"....they already did, they're just looking for an excuse....."

"Ren, no one is going to judge you on your sex life. It's okay."

"........................okay," they said quietly, pulling their hands out of their hair.

She slowly her hands as well. "See? Just relax. I'm not going to let anything bad happen to you."

Shigeru had stopped him when he came back. A good thing, or he might've ended up bleeding out. He'd suggested the best thing to make him feel better was probably to go apologize to Ivory. It was that or stay at home, doing God-knows-what to himself, so he erred on the side of self-preservation. Shigeru gave him her new address and he trudged down the streets of NYC in a black hoodie. When he arrived, the door was answered by....Seculus? He'd bleached his hair. Why? He looked different, too. More muscular? He'd gotten used to noticing these things. He was observed hesitantly for a moment before allowed inside. Seculus closed the door. "......so. I assume your memories have returned?" "Yeah." "And you were...." "......." Well, he did know him better than anyone, after all. "...let me see." ....fine. What was the harm. It was nothing he hadn't seen before. Tassek rolled up his sleeves to show the bandages. Seculus took the back of his wrist and tutted quietly. "....ugly things. I think you look much better without them." He raised his arm and softly kissed the scars under the wrappings. Wha-- He turned red and jerked it back, rolling his sleeve back down. "What is it? ....ah, I see. No need to be worried, I'm only trying to help....that's what I'm meant for, after all. Caring for you." He brushed Tassek's bangs out of his face, revealing the nervous green eyes and flushed cheeks. "And oh, I can care for you, if you'll just let me....." He reached out and rested his long fingers lightly on the small of Tassek's back, drawing him ever so slightly nearer.

They loaded the chairs up, and drove back to the house. Lance and Ren insisted they had it, so Ivory opened the door to the house, and stepped inside. Just to make sure Seculus was still in one- oh. "Seculus I didn't know you were into men!" Ivory said loudly, only to get his attention and to pull him out of that.

He jolted and spun around, pupils constricted so his eyes were almost entirely blue. He blinked and they dilated back to normal. "What are you talking about, I'm not--ah--I-I'm sorry!" He backed away from Tassek, hands raised. Tassek just stared at him. What the fuck just happened? Why was he so /hot/?

"Go splash some cold water on your face. It'll help." She then looked to Tassek. "Are you alright?"

2016-01-19 08:39:40

Seculus stumbled attractively off to the kitchen sink to bring himself back to reality. Tassek was still red. "Y-yeah, uh....he..../what/?"

She let out a breath. "Satan's definition of a sick joke. He's an incubus now."

"......as in a mythical sex demon? /Him/?"

2016-01-19 08:44:12

●

"Yeah, I know. Wait- how did you find my address?"

2016-01-19 08:45:45

🌀

"Uh...Shigeru. I guess he knows you."

2016-01-19 08:47:20

●

"...Sure. Right. What do you need?"

2016-01-19 08:47:38

🌀

"...........I wanted......I wanted to apologize. Like, /really/ apologize....I remembered everything."

2016-01-19 08:48:16

●

"Oh...Well, it's okay."

2016-01-19 08:49:50

"No, it's not. I was horrible....I don't deserve that kind of immediate forgiveness for what I did."

2016-01-19 08:51:53

●

"...I know...but...you came all this way. I'll let you living with Lucinda be 'punishment' enough."

2016-01-19 08:52:30

"....nah, I already kicked her out. And just walking doesn't mean anything..."

2016-01-19 08:53:41

●

"You did? Why? Other than the obvious."

2016-01-19 08:55:59

"She....well, there's not exactly a reason to let her stay, either, is there?"

2016-01-19 08:56:31

●

"I don't know, I'm not you."

2016-01-19 08:56:58

"She was a dick to Shigeru, she was a dick to me, she was a dick to God, she was a dick to the planet, of course I made her leave."

"That much I do know. She /was/ in my head for twenty years."
