{ Sorry things have been so slow around here, I'm pretty busy these days! I'll try to be active when I can.. }

┇♔┇❧ Raizou tried as he may to keep suspicion off of himself and Kaneda, but knew he couldn't protect the both of them at the same time. He inevitably knew that when it came down to it, he either had to admit to disobeying Zera's commandments and put the both of them at risk, or just give up Kaneda. The feeling in his stomach he got from the idea was awful, and he choked back a sigh.  Upon hearing Jaibo wishing to ensure Kaneda was disposed of, he couldn't help but sweat a little, trying to figure out his next move. It would be impossible for him to simply say that was a bad idea, but perhaps he could offer something to prove Kaneda could be of use for the time being.  "He is an icky and ugly boy yes.., But if we dispose of him, won't that create a bit of a ruckus with Tamiya-kun and Dafu-kun? They are still useful aren't they?"  He spoke as carefully as possible, not wanting to show any signs of disrespect to Jaibo. He rubbed his chin, as if he were thinking about disposing Kaneda as an actual idea. He didn't want that to happen of course, but he didn't want to let on to that thought either.  

 █{{★}}██  

           Jaibo had become ambivalent. Where to head this oh so terrifying conversation, at least for the opposing party’s who’s emotions cracked slightly allowing for Jaibo’s hisses and smooth words to leak down into the seams. However he spoke seeme3d to work well against others. That itching and uncomfortable feeling that confines you within a slimy coating anytime he graces your path. It was the life of a psychopath to make one increasingly uncomfortable by their presence and the sinister child had mastered the art.

           Sighing he reached a hand out and patted the Raizou’s shoulder warmly, a happy grin spanning the width of his cheeks “Oh~ You know just what to say darling! You’re always so quick on your toes and know just whats up! It’s admirable!” Usually flattery wouldn’t work fully on the boy, key word fully. Petting that throbbing ego of his was always a good plan if you wish to advert suspicions or just get the kid off your back

           “Kyaha~ Pretty pretty~ You did say before he was an ugly one and it’s true~ un-manicured nails and awful hair. He’s so weak as well I can’t believe Zera even allows him to still be around!

Maybe I’ll talk to him about it, see if it’s possible to dispose of Kaneda-

if we are both agreeing on the subject”

┇♔┇❧ Raizou did not like the fact that the bandaids were plain, and such a gross color none the less. He was putting them on his hands, and they were certainly going to make him look terrible. "You can draw on them for me then? Make sure they are beautiful."  He was a little snooty in his tone, seeing as he blamed him for the cuts in the first place. 

 He hardly thought that they would find a stock of cute bandaids within the club, but he’d have something to at least cover his scrapes. Kaneda stopped to brush himself off properly and hurried after Raizou. “I don’t think we’ll have those kinds… b-but maybe we could draw on them.” It seemed like a childish idea, but they should be big enough to at least decorate if not to his complete satisfaction.

He rummaged and found a few spare bandaids from a kit that was set aside. “Sorry - they’re plain.”

┇♔┇❧ Raizou knew he couldn't hide from Jaibo, he knew it. Acting innocent was the best way to protect himself, but he knew as well as anyone else did how sneaky Jaibo really was. He would find out just about anything in the blink of an  eye.  "What? I wouldn't think of getting into any trouble Jaibo~" He knew that as Zera's second hand, he couldn't get away with anything if he got caught. He had no intentions of being caught. He was sneakier then they gave him credit for, or at least he thought he was. "Kaneda-kun is another icky boy, just like the rest of the club members. One of the ugly ones too.. Not pretty like us." He shook his head and scoffed.  "Why.... Why are you asking about something like that anyways?"

                    █{{★}}██ “ Don’t play dumb you pretty little fool! I’ll rip your own nails out if you keep going on like that!” The child snapped back hostile manner before covering his mouth in a girlish fashion “Oh my~ Did I say that out loud!” He squeaked so softly. But that wire grin never ceased to fade from the cherry red lips. Blood red more like it.

                                  For some time he wondered about those two. That accursed nail biter he would be getting rid of soon. Frame him for something silly that Zera would get all tied up in knots about. A hasty execution. He’s so frail it would be easy!

                                  However getting rid of pretty boy here would be another task all together. Honestly he hadn’t thought through all the gears and mechanisms of this plan but surely he’ll think of sooooomething right? “It would be quite scandalous for you two to be caught in such acts you know sweet cheeks~ Don’t get in trouble kay?”

┇♔┇❧ Raizou was looking at his hands and his lip quivered. He was going to have to wash it all off and start fresh once he got home. He stamped his feet on the ground and pulled his hands back, hiding them behind his back. "Okay... Only if they are really cute bandaids! With nice patterns and pretty colors!" He huffed, scampering towards the entrance to the club. He knew Kaneda would follow close after him.

"But you have scrapes on them too." He was more concerned about the injuries on his fingers than the chipped polish, but both of these would be imperfections to Raizou. He’d suggest putting bandaids on them, but it wouldn’t surprise Kaneda if he ended up crying at the very sight of them being plastered all over his delicate hands. "Hey, let’s go. We can find more ants later, but you should put some bandaids on your hands…"

{ Like if you want a starter!! }

┇♔┇❧ Raizou was still giggling away to himself, amused in every way. He watched as the other boy looked at his hands and his eyes widened. He finally noticed the chipped polish and quickly pulled his hands away. "Probably! Don't look at it!" He hid his hands with a pout. He didn't want him to see such imperfections. It was upsetting, but he had already seen it so there wasn't really much else to be seen.

"You certainly think differently." Kaneda commented and his gaze wandered, noticing a small imperfection in the paint on one of his nails. He took his hand and examined the chipped nail polish. "Did that happen when we fell?" He wondered if Raizou was going to freak out because of it and hoped that he wouldn’t cry or anything.

┇♔┇❧ Raizou was a little startled by the sudden closeness the other brought. He breathed a little heavier, feeling his heart beating fast. He couldn't be up to any good with a smile like the one he had playing across his lips. He gulped and looked at him curiously. "Do you- Like someone?~" The words struck a cord with him and he felt himself sweating. He had grown to be quite naturally nervous around the boy, but having himself questioned was simply... Scary for him. "The nail biter and I? What do you mean Jaibo?" He played it innocently, and his eyes sparkled childishly as he spoke. The last thing he needed was Kaneda an himself in trouble. Especially considering the commandments of the club that Zera had specifically set out for the lot of them.

                    █{{★}}██ He halted suddenly and spun around on his heals landing so close to the other boy they were within kissing distance. A hot wire grin stretched across Jaibo’s cheeks in a rather demented manner. Of course the disturbed boy always had some mischief in mind and of course it would come into play sometime or another. Always was there some plan in mind.

                                   ”Say~ Do you- Like some one?~” he cooed out his question smoothly fluttering is lashes in a suggestive manner. Giggling Jaibo hopped backwards and touched his fingertips to his lips. “ahhhhh~ You and nail biter have been pretty close lately right!~” He cackled loudly now pointing to the other accusingly. “What? Am I right am I right!?”

┇♔┇❧ It brought Raizou the utmost delight to discover that Litchi would in fact be going out to capture more pretty girls that night. He often found himself thinking that the girls he brought looked much more beautiful when they wore the false faces he had created for them. Something tragically beautiful came from the confinement of ones natural beauty, and replaced with something much simpler. His masks served a good purpose for this much at least. "Oh yes! Litchi has done a magnificent job capturing cute girls and bringing them to the club. I don't doubt for a minute he will continue to do so!"  He wondered who truly deserved the praise, Zera, or the robot who did his bidding.

  Hearing Zera ask an opinion of him was hardly a common thing, so he intended to impress him if he possibly could. Of course, who better to answer about beauty then he, the most beautiful member of the club? "Why Zera, that's simple! Beauty is something most have to work for, not something that happens naturally. Look at all the gross ugly boys we see around us every day.. They have nothing on me, who always has the softest skin and beautiful hair~ A beautiful girl can be recognized by her luscious hair and bright eyes. Her lips, and the condition of her nails and skin. If a girl doesn't bother to take care of her appearance, she can hardly call herself beautiful! A true beauty comes from a woman being modest and pure!" 

        He’d luxuriate in the unbridled allegiance, even if he did oftentimes communicate to each underling with practiced disguise. An intentional misstatement was a small charge to pay for the acquirement of supreme authority and veneration—for the domination he would earn by fortunate happening.

        ❝Yes, Litchi’s progression is first-rate. He is a mere child, but a so-called wunderkind nonetheless. You must remember that.

        He will not disappoint me.❞

        Factual basis prevailed, a reliableness in which he could fix his intellectual pursuits. Banal small talk with a club-fellow who was possessed with a capricious worldview, whose tastes differed from his own; he’d hastily accept the miserable challenge for pleasure. He needn’t use Raizou to approve or amend his schemes.

        ❝Humor me. Your opinions are often dismissed, so I bring you succor. How would you educate Litchi to recognize beauty? Surely, cosmetic products and falsities introduced by society are unnatural.❞

┇♔┇❧ Raizou had been put on duty to make sure the beautiful goddess was clean and taken care of. He sat with his materials at hand, beginning to wash and brush her hair while she was in her confines. "Ah, so beautiful~" He mused. Of course, she was quite beautiful. Her beauty at least matched his own. He dreaded to think about the possibility that she may just be even more so then he. 

┇♔┇❧Jaibo always seemed to have such a disturbingly chipper air about him. Something about it didn't seem happy so much as mischievous, and Raizou could definitely sense that air about him now.  He had already been keeping up with him, following him as they both knew he was going to. As he spoke of the private meeting, Raizou couldn't help but be curious. What sort of club business had they even been up to anyways? It was rather fishy, but he said nothing. "A question~? What is it Jaibo-san?" He tilted his head curiously, wondering if it perhaps pertained  to the secret meeting they were just discussing. 

                 █{{★}}██ “Yeah Yeah something like that~” he cooed happily, knowing very well these private meetings got rather steamy and there wasn’t a whole lot of important conversations going on either. Though jaibo would wonder from time to time if anyone would catch onto the act between Zera and himself. If anyone it would be Raizou wouldn’t it? He couldn’t be that dumb. At least not as totally clueless to those types of things as the other boys.

                                 ”It went on pretty long but I could stay with him forever~ He is our ruler after all right? Kyaha~ Totally great!~” Jaibo continued to swoon before stopping half way to turn to the comrade ”…….Hey, I have a question”

┇♔┇❧ "Tee hee hee~ I'm always careful! I'm not dumb like the dumb boys in the club!" He assured him, waving his hand. He really didn't think he really could even compare himself to them either.

That was a terrible way to think of it. It hardly brought the boy any comfort, but he went along with it since Raizou meant to offer him some sort of reassurance.

"Be careful, okay?"

{ Haitus officially over! I have my computer back in one piece.. Thanks for waiting guys! }

{ Mini Haitus! All my posts and replies will post as links automatically until I get my computer fixed (est. a week and a half). I can still do replies but It will be much more difficult on my phone! And it will look a lot less organized. }

┇♔┇❧ Raizou was far too calm in the situation, and it didn't bother him in the slightest. He knew how dangerous his actions were, but yet he still continued them anyways. "Oh, being dangerous isn't always too bad right? It's how we got where we are now... Besides, it isn't really dangerous unless you get caught!" Such a childish mindset, but that was to be expected from the young boy. 

Kaneda felt the nail crack between his teeth and slowly dropped his hand as Raizou spoke. Even as he discussed such lewd things, the other boy’s tone was chipper and unwavering. Despite having picked on him and called him annoying in the past, his voice was pleasant to him. Raizou was far louder and expressive than himself.

"You’re far too curious, Raizou-chan… That’s kind of dangerous."

┇♔┇❧ It wasn't unusual to him to have such things, considering what the other club members themselves were looking at. He was sure he could understand as much. "I was curious.. Of course, boys are silly... But I never knew the sorts of things possible for two boys to do together~" He couldn't deny that it was exciting and interesting, as much as he or anyone else in the club may try and deny it. 

Kaneda was certain that Raizou was already set on sharing his little collection with him. Kaneda didn’t want to make a big deal out of it. He wanted to seem more mature, especially in front of the other. Which seemed to be failing thus far. “I can’t believe you have those kinds of things…”
