RE: Once upon a modern tale - KokoPuffs - 02-13-2020
Yukiji was about to say something back returned, but only pulled out a soft smile before her hand was taken. Goodness, couldn't even get the chance to grab her jacket, not as if a dragon of her type would really needed it; as Elsa says, the cold never bothered her anyway. "In quite the hurry I see," she giggled softly, her hand gently holding onto his own as they walked along, "oh? Really you don't need to do such a thing, I mean, it is YOUR birthday after all. I can' always treat YOU instead my dear, nothing wrong with a woman treating a handsome man on his own birthday~"
It was when she was let go that she walked off a little ways away, to a man who was walking around the floor. He was an older man, but not to old of course; perhaps around in his 30's if anything. He smiled upon feeling her tap him on the shoulder, like her he wasn't human; but not a dragon either. "Ah, hello there love," he smiled a little bit more, soft but gruff voice coming through, "what is it you need of me?"
"I am going out for a bit with a nice gentleman, getting a bite to eat on his lovely birthday~" she smiled once again, though the man only rolled his eyes at her; in half teasing manner of course.
"I'm going to assume you two fucked first, correct?" his expression was inquisitive, and yet he held a air of knowing exactly that being the case; it usually was, even if others really never took her out after.
"You know me too well, but at least he just didn't hit it and quite it as they say," she winked, giving him a nudge against his arm; which only caused the man to chuckled lightly at her antics.
"Ah yes, well I have known you for quite some time, but remember to be careful, you don't get involved with many... how you say... respectable men," his arm wrapped around her, giving her a light hug before letting go, "don't get your heat broken~"
"Me? Never~" with one last hug she let go and made her way back towards Deimos. who eyes seemed to scan the entire place around him. "Ready to go, darling?"

"I was born ready," he teased as he kissed the top of her head. "I don't think I can tell you this enough but you smell delicious, my dear." He smiled as he pulled away only enough so they could actually walk and he be able to see where they were going. His orange eyes were amused as he walked to the entrance and got the door for them as they walked through to exit onto the streets. He breathed in the night air letting it fill his lungs and slowly exhaled softly. It felt so good to be free like this. It was moments like this he was glad he was a dragon. The freedom it came with... Well not so much lately. In this modern world he had to be careful. Humans had made better ways to deal with his kind besides just a little poison. Hell, he was surprised they hadn't off'ed themselves yet with the way that they had developed some technology.
He motioned for her to lead them to this place she had mentioned. "I must say though, I am very glad you honor me tonight with your presence. It is nice to be able to be around another I am not kin to," he said with a smile. "That and my sister is also one-hundred percent that bitch as the kids say now. She is a diva and a spoiled child in many ways. Her mate has not helped that but she also won't tell me who he is or let me meet him. I think she's afraid I'll steal him." He winked at the girl. "How about you? Do you have any family worth mentioning?"

A soft giggled came from the woman, though her cheeks lite up with a gentle blush as well; his words seeming to have quite the effect on her. Then again, she didn't spend much time with men after bedding with them. Maybe this was what she might have to get use to, only if he wanted to stay in contact with her of course. She didn't assume he would, even if they were both of the dragon persuasion, it was all up to him whether or not their encounter would be a one night thing; or something much different. "You sound like you're just ready to take me home and devour me," she snickered lightly, "I wouldn't mind, but I have a different craving right now~"
The woman gently wrapped her arm around his own, keeping them both close enough to each other. He didn't know where they were heading, so it was only natural as a way to lead him where they needed to be going. Even if they wondered a bit, she didn't mind, the brisk, cold air that filled her lungs was more than satisfactory. "Oh? Well it is an honor to grace you with my presence my dear~ It's it nice to be with another dragon for one," she smiled softly, face looking ahead as they walked, "she certainly sounds like 'that bitch', though it isn't always such a bad thing. I'm going to assume she's probably the favorite of the two of you, if she's as spoiled as you say.... and who couldn't you steal with a face like yours~"
"Me? I can't say that I do, the only family I can mention is my parents, though they do not live around here," she gazed up to him, a soft smile on her lips, "I don't have any siblings either, I'm the only child of my parents. You could say I'm spoiled as well by them, kind of like your sister, but surely not AS bad. What can one do when they only have ONE child~"
RE: Once upon a modern tale - Andromeda - 02-17-2020
"Well I guess I'll have to judge if you're the same as my sister or worst," he teased her. "As for Roma, she inherited the bloodline trait and I didn't. She is father's favorite so she literally gets away with murder." He seemed to have a moment of regret there but it quickly faded. He loved his sister but she was her father's child.
He gave her a smile. "You're lucky being an only child. Don't have anyone for them to compare you to," he told her. "So I'm sure you were very spoiled and love. I was loved just never like her."
Deimos laughed about him stealing anyone he wanted. He wasn't so sure about that but the compliment was welcomed nevertheless. He gave her hand on his arm a gentle squeeze with his other hand. "You're one to talk though. Why did you never settle down?"
RE: Once upon a modern tale - KokoPuffs - 02-18-2020
Yukiji couldn't help but to let out a soft giggle, though she hadn't met his sister so she certainly had no way to gage of how she was. She could only hope she wasn't as bad, sure, spoiled as a single child but who wouldn't do such a thing? At least it wasn't because she was the favorite of siblings, that would have been he worst case scenario. "I can certainly tell by the way you speak of her that she is his favorite, and even if you didn't inherit some bloodline trait.. I think you are just magnificent as is~" a soft purr emitted from her as she spoke, her head leaning against his arms gently.
"Perhaps, but then again you do miss out of what it's like to have a sibling," she sighed softly, though she was caught of guard by his question, "me? Well...." The woman paused a moment to think about it, why had she never settled down? Maybe she didn't like the idea of being tied down so young in life, or perhaps there was other reasons for it as well. Dragons were a time a dozen these days, hard to find and even harder to find the right one.
"I think..." she looked up to him and smiled, her body pulling him closer to their destination, "I haven't found the right dragon yet~ They are so hard to find now, and I don't want to settle with just... any man you know. I want a man who can care for me, be gentle when he knows he needs to be.. and very well keep up with me at that~"
RE: Once upon a modern tale - Andromeda - 02-24-2020
"I understand," he chuckled. "I haven't settled because I like to travel and explore and most dragons have settled in a place not wanting to leave. I don't feel at home anywhere. I'm actually suppose to leave soon for the modeling job for a week."
He sighed as if he might be regretting that slightly. "At least I'll only be gone for a month. I'm going to England for the first half and Spain for the second half." He gave her arm a soft gentle squeeze.
"Enough of that though. Let's just enjoy the night eh?," he leaned over and kissed her cheek and smiled. "After all I do have you on my arm. I got to make sure you're happy."
RE: Once upon a modern tale - KokoPuffs - 02-29-2020
Listening to him speak brought a soft frown to her face, though she looked away as to keep such an expression from his beautiful eyes. Such a shame, not having a place one could feel at home; a place to even call him if that. Yukiji couldn't even wonder how that must feel to be quite honest, perhaps one day he could find himself feeling at home somewhere. Hell, if she had anything to do about it, she would try and help him find that place on the way.
She turned her head back to gaze at him again, this time with a gentle smile spread across her plush lips; gods she could only wonder what it would be like to travel and explore around the world. Having a business though? That made even the thought harder than it needed to be, but she needed to be here for things to run well; and to be sure her ladies had their jobs. "That must be nice though, traveling, seeing new things," she hummed softly in thought, "that sounds like so long to be gone, I think I might just end up missing you when you leave~"
Was that a strange thing to say? Gods she hoped not, but he was a gentle kind of man, though perhaps not in the bedroom; but there was that sense off him that she could just FEEL. "Hmm? OH! No, tonight is about you love, it is the day you were born," she giggled lightly, turning towards a building they almost passed up, "I think you might like this, it's a fun experience in eating." The woman paused a moment at the door, just before opening it for the both of them. The smell of cooking meats wafted right into her senses as they entered.

He breathed in deeply taking in the restaurant through his nose. He could almost taste the food from the scent alone and Deimos licked his lips. "Aw you will miss me," he teased her. "That's cute but I have see the world... I just havent seen it change and I feel like something has and I want to find what has. I want to see what has changed in the world or if not there... in me."
The last part was more to himself but something felt new and he watched to capture it and keep it safe. "Maybe if you tell me your birthday, I'll make sure to return this favor."
He was teasing her but it was in that moment he knew he'd come back for her.
RE: Once upon a modern tale - KokoPuffs - 03-10-2020
The shorter woman couldn't help but to pout at his teasing, her lips poking out from her face as she gazed up; her eyes were made to look like she was sad, but she really was far from it.. for now at least. "I wish I could join you~" she spoke with a light sigh, even if her smile had slowly returned to her, "but sadly I must be here, waiting for the day your handsome self can return to me~" Dramatically she leaned against him, one arm wrapped around him while the back of her other hand was pressed against her forehead; then she let out the deepest sigh she could muster.
His following words, however, did catch her off guard; causing a soft, but confused, furrow of her white brows. "You want to know my birthday?" she opened her mouth to speak, only for a man to come by and lead them to a table. It was rectangular in shape, and in the center was a grill; built into the table itself. That was the thing with Korean BBQ, you cooked your own meats how you liked them.
Once seated, she pulled herself in and took the menu, filled with different types of meat and even sides one could put along with them. "If you must know," she spoke up, "my birthday is January 21st." She would have to take his word for it, that he might just 'return' the favor; yet she would still hold it with a grain of salt. It would all depend if he did come back or not, she'd have to surely wait and see.
RE: Once upon a modern tale - Andromeda - 03-10-2020
He sat at the table with her and smiled as he listened to her birthday. It wasn't a bad thing to know by any means. He just hoped he didn't lose track of time which was something very normal for dragons. Days quickly could blend into months, and then years. When the server came over, he ordered a drink for himself and motioned for her to order.
The man smiled, his orange eyes flickering like warm embers on a fall day. His red hair was as red as his father's and looked like fresh blood. Often he got questions if it was dyed, but he often just ignored them. He ran his fingers through his hands not really sure what to talk about with her. He had just met her, but he wasn't the type to hit it and quit it. He wasn't an ass like some others he could name.
"I'll let you pick what we eat. I'm sure you have exquisite taste compared to me," he said as he smiled. "However, tell me more about you. I wish to get to know about you and I guess what makes you, you."
