Basking under the sun wasn’t as nearly as fun as basking under the moon. A summer day was already hot alone, and lying beneath on of the greatest sources was a guarantee to increase that terrible, terrible heat which acquired the power to rub itself beyond your flesh and into your mind and temperament like a sun block lacking an protection against the EDM rays, further translated into- Evile, disturbing, mind-melting rays. Such a lotion attracted those rays, because the soul purpose was wearing is to be out under the sun and exposed without EDM protection.[/font][/blockquote][/size]
Obviously another conspiracy.
But moon-basking was so much better. Out in the night, whether legal or not Tithe found his place lying spine down upon somewhat dew dampened grass. The blades both tickled and spiked his back, lacking the protection of a shirt, that was to be expected. Maybe, just maybe he hadn’t just been basking. If only the Maybe had a chance, the wet state of his hair was a dead give away- Tithe had been for a ‘swim’ of sorts. By truth, that only involved him tugging off his top and leaping into the lake while Myaku Koe set off a siren in his head. And siren was to be deciphered as a fairly ferocious row or yelling and objections to getting wet and being out of the castle at night. But mostly because he got wet. Dear little Mya hated getting wet.
Just like he hated getting dirty.
Whether it was literal dirt or bad behavior.
Right now the demon had every little pinch of pepper to spice his argument. He was cold. He was wet. He was tired. He was scared. He was uncomfortable. He wanted to leave. He didn’t want to get in trouble. He wanted to beat Tithe. He wanted to strangle Tithe. He wanted to take his fist and drive into Tithe’s eye. He wanted to take a knife and stab Tithe. The wanted to tie Tithe down… get a chainsaw and-
Well you get the picture.
Mya wanted Tithe dead. Something the boy could easily cope with since Mya always wanted him dead… and too obviously never meant even with all the detailed strategies he claimed to know how to do commit kill with. It was a laughable subject, however Tithe couldn’t find himself to come to laughing. The nocturne of the over sized puddle a distance from his feet, surface softly rippled by breaths of wind and spots of lights form the castle liquidized into the water as dark as ink with the night overhead... It had lulled his into a quite dreamy mood. Even the itch of the grass across his back wasn’t irritating, and gust chilled droplets clinging to his bare upper torso didn’t beckon gooseflesh, the same went for his soaked pants which were- for once –baggy and decorated with chains and straps, clinging to his legs with a rather icy touch.
At the moment Tithe was a pale smudge of life against the green stretch of grass and dark splotch of the lake brimmed in faded pebbles, a pale, dormant, smudge of life. Not perfect. Not imperfect. No halo hovering above the wet tangles of his hair and lacking any sort of devilish tail sprouting from the base of his vertebrae. There was one blessed flaw though, on his right hip, no longer obscured by a shirt was a tattoo, a simple and fairly boring one actually. Just three, black X’s. Each the same size. Except for the one farthest forward… He swore it was a little smaller than the others.
They weren’t supposed to imply much. They weren’t supposed to be marks to stand for any big or bad thing he’d ever done. They weren’t suppose to have any deep meaning to them… They were just a trio of X’s.
Triple X. Wasn’t that the rating on life anymore?
