Closed X: The step into other worlds

Kirita followed his eyes upward, and though there was nothing particularly interesting about the ceiling she still stared at it.
"Hell if I know." Skye shrugged. "I was born with 'em. And y'know, I never found any use for 'em except making stubborn plastic bags easier to open. Far as I'm concerned they're just there to look pretty."
"Well what can I say?" Zora laughed. "You're thexy."
"Yeah, it's her alright..." Jesse sighed, "You know, I feel like I need to make it up to her. And with what I did, it's gotta be big. Huge. Extravagant, even."
 
"You're sounding like Snagglepuss, man." Jax giggled, "How about you put on a concert for her? Or give her a candygram? Or get some famous people here? You could get a piano and play her some songs."

Jax looked around.

"If you want to get her jealous, however....you could always have a fauxmance." she mumbled, "But I doubt you'd want that. You don't seem like that."

Jax coughed.

"I've got more, but what do you think of my ideas so far." Jax said.
 
After staring at the ceiling for a few more minutes, Raiquen dropped his gaze to Kirita and smiled when he saw her face again. He tightened his embrace slightly.
Aidan coughed.
"I'll take it for granted then...although they could be used for intimidation."
"Aidan, honestly, they're just teeth." Melody said.
"Pssh..." Rhythm muttered, waving it off. The smile still remained on his face, however.
 
Kirita yawned.
"...You're comfortable."
"Um... alright. I'll take your word for it." Skye stretched out a little. She couldn't help but wonder why he hadn't commented on the horns. Or the wings. Or the tail. But whatever.
"Oh, you..." Zora chuckled to herself, before turning so she could more comfortably face him.
"I like where you're going. I do." Jesse muttered, "Although let's try to think even bigger here."
 
"Hrmmm...maybe take her on a trip somewhere. Or take her to some sort of amusement park. Maybe buy her some video games or a punching bag." Jax said, "I don't really know Opal that well. She used to be our enemy, you know. Maybe a giant piece of chocolate shaped like you or her or a heart."
 
Raiquen chuckled lightly at Kirita's words.
"Well, thank you..." He said, also yawning.
Aidan said no more, but looked askance at Skye apprehensively. Melody noticed this and an amused smile formed on her expression.
Rhythm laughed quietly, then also adjusted himself to face Zora better.
"I'm not that thexy..."
 
"You're welcome." Kirita noticed him yawning right after she did. "You're still tired, aren't you?"
Skye still looked at Aidan.
"Whaaat? You look at me like you're about to attack me or something. You can't seriously be scared of me."
"Well, I think you are." Zora winked at him, a smile forming on her face.
"That's the problem." Jesse groaned, "I dunno what she likes either." Then it hit him. "I should ask Rhythm about it." He stood up and looked out the room. He looked busy.
"...Later." he muttered, "He's preoccupied."
 
Jax got down on the floor and laid down.

"It was getting too lovehappy out there and stuff." Jax said, "And let me say one thing...girls usually don't like cheesy pick-up lines."

Jax blushed.

"I must be the only one that does. I totally exploded like a volcano with 'em when Frost first came in." Jax laughed.
 
Raiquen smiled at her and nodded.
"Yeah, I am..." He muttered, yawning again.
Aidan blinked, and grinned nervously.
"Well, it's not every day you see someone with...your features. I mean, the sharp teeth, the horns, the tail...no offense."
Rhythm looked at Zora and smiled.
"If I'm thexy, then you're absolutely beautiful."
 
"I can tell." Kirita laughed. "Well why don't we go and sit down then?"
Skye shrugged again.
"None taken. Like I said, people usually don't take well to it at first. I don't mind so much. Just try and remember I'm pretty much harmless." she grinned at him again.
"Oh..." Zora's face went red when he said that. "Well thank you." She twirled her hair shyly.
Jesse nodded.
"Yeah, I think I've figured that out. And I remember that." he chuckled. "If I hadn't been a bit, ah... busy, that would've been hilarious."
 
"I'd say that's a great idea." Raiquen said. He let go of Kirita, walked over to the nearest chair, and fell into it.
Aidan grinned back at Skye.
"Right. Harmless. I'll remember that."
Rhythm chuckled to himself, still staring at her.
"You look beautiful when you blush, too."
 
Kirita promptly stretched out and then fell into a chair next to him.
"That's the idea." Skye shuffled around a bit impatiently. Her wing twitched, but she didn't feel much like even getting up right now, let alone going out there and flying.
Zora blinked, then smiled awkwardly at him. Any redder and you wouldn't be able to see her hair against her skin.
"Ahem... yes, well... thank you again..."
 
"You know, you're a really nice guy once we get to know you." Jax said, "Maybe if you show this side of you, Opal will like you. I think you should go and find her. Remember, don't make an idiot of yourself."
 
Raiquen yawned once more, then settled himself in. It did not last long, however, as he leaned forward sharply and nearly fell out of his chair.
"Jeez...I'm uncoordinated today..."
Aidan glanced at Skye for a bit longer, then turned and stared out the nearest window. However, Melody began to giggle, and Aidan turned his attention to her.
"What?"
"How can you be scared of someone so harmless...?" Melody whispered quietly.
"...Shut up."
Rhythm took her hand and held it in his, smiling widely.
"You don't need to be this shy around me..."
 
Kirita blinked at him.
"Hate to say it dear, but after seeing that I agree with you."
"He should just be thankful all three of us aren't out here." Skye chuckled. "My sisters would have a field day with this, they would."
"I know, I know..." a light blush still remained on Zora's face as he took her hand. "I just can't help it sometimes, hun..."
"Yeah, but she's probably asleep or something." Jesse muttered. "If I wake her up or bother her she might hate me even more..." a thought occurred to him. "If she came in here and kissed me in the next few minutes, would you pinch me to make sure I wasn't dreaming?"
 
"Yeah, I would." Jax said, "Of course, there would probably be other indicators. Like...flying pianos wearing your underwear and playing hoedowns....or the toilet trying to eat you....or magical bunnies...or something like that."

Jax giggled.

"But wait, if you're dreaming.....am I real?" Jax asked confusedly, "....I doubt it's a dream though...."

(Finally got the piano worked in :D)
 
Raiquen leaned back in his chair slowly and steadily. He did not want to fall again.
"Aye, being tired sort of sucks..."
Aidan was about to say something, but he decided against it and stared out the window. Melody simply giggled.
"You should bring them out here...I'd love to see Aidan embarrassed."
Rhythm smiled at Zora's response.
"It's because I'm so thexy, that's why."
Meanwhile, Opal slumped out of her room, draped in a blanket and looking obviously tired. As she made her way to the living room, she walked by an open door and stopped, seeing Jesse and Jax. Feeling quite reckless, she leaned in the doorway seductively.
"Hello..."
 
"I can see that." Kirita muttered, raising an eyebrow as she looked at him.
"Later. I dunno where Raven went off to and Anseyu is a bear to wake up." Skye muttered. "Trust me. I'd love to see it too."
Zora giggled.
"That... could have something to do with it." she winked at him.
"Nono, I mean, I was asleep for a little bit while I was in here. You're still real. I meant, if that happened, I'd probabl-" He stared up at Opal, standing in the doorway. He glanced at Jax with eyes that said "don't say a word", then looked back at her.
"...H-hello..."
 
Jax kept quiet. She ran out of the the room.

"'' 'Cuse me, Opal." Jax said, squeezing by her on her way out.
 
Raiquen glanced at Kirita's expression.
"...You're either mad, or questioning. Which is it?"
Melody giggled once more, then settled in her seat quietly. The look on her face showed that she was imagining gleefully.
Rhythm chuckled quietly, not taking his eyes off of Zora.
"My thexiness has a lot to do with it..."
Opal smiled mischievously as Jax ran out, walking into the room and sitting down next to Jesse.
"So...how've you been?" She asked, moving her face extremely close to his.
