| The cat magi idly stood there, cleaning glasses. The bar was incredibly slow tonight. Everyone was recovering from the festival and more drinking wasn't an option for those who had already drank their fill. He was okay with this though as he idly zoned out, his tail flicking back and forth.
Rune was thinking about the festival and the time he had with Nobu. An unexpected blush appeared on his cheeks as he thought about a certain point in that time where he had kissed the fish. He felt dumb as he cleaned the glass harder, even though it was already spotless. There were only a few glasses that needed to be cleaned and he was going to make sure they were the cleanest glasses in all of Haven apparently.
Rune looked up at the one customer in a corner who had motioned for another beer. The car magi leaped forward, doing the job quickly. He was wearing faded, worn jeans and a white t-shirt today and his usual leather jacket was hung up. He moved back to the bar, reaching for another glass.
And promptly zoned out again as he thought about the festival, his yellow eyes just staring ahead. He had drank way too much, it was a wonder he was even working today. But business was business and he couldn't exactly close down the bar for another day, even if there was barely anyone here. Maybe he should close early. But maybe a certain fish would visit. Rune hoped so and at the same time, didn't really want him to come in. Rune wasn't sure that he could handle Nobu in his current state but he couldn't get the pervy fish out of his brain either.
The cat magi didn't hear the bells ring to signal another person walk in.

The festival may have come and gone, but that didn’t mean Nobu couldn’t keep drinking afterward. A bit more moderation would be in order, of course, but still. He wanted to spend a little time this evening away from his home, and he knew just the place to visit. By now the trek to The Curious Cat was a familiar one, and went by relatively quickly. As ever, bells rang softly to signal his arrival, and a certain feline magi stood manning the bar, but as far as other patrons went the place was mostly empty. That was fine, though. He wasn’t here to visit any of them, after all. Eyes fixed on Rune, Nobu approached the bar with a small smile playing across his lips, and took up a post on one of the barstools. The cat seemed distracted, though, so at first he didn’t say much of anything, and simply watched while he wiped down glasses that were already sparkling clean. Something on his mind, perhaps? Or, if he wanted to be a little more self-indulgent about it, some one? Smirking at the thought, the water magi leaned forward to rest his elbows on the counter, and prop his head up on one hand. Briefly, he entertained the idea of waiting to see how long it would take for the other to notice him, but decided that Rune might not particularly enjoy the surprise that would surely come with it. “Hello, Rune,” he greeted instead, tilting his head slightly to the side. “It’s a quiet night for you, it seems.”Rune Sabatier |

| The cat magi was zoned out completely, his mind wandering through the events with Nobu and just overall thinking about the fish. He didn't know him that well...well practically nothing about him actually. He wondered if the fish would come visit soon and that was when he heard a greeting.
Blinking a couple times, his eyes turned to Nobu, widening in surprise and a blush touching his cheeks.
Speak of the devil...
Rune willed his blush to go away as he set the glass he had already cleaned to perfection down and picked another already clean one up, clearing his throat. "Hello...yes...extra quiet..."
There was that feeling again. Heart pounding, can't catch your breath feeling. His eyes raised heavenward for a moment, sending up a quick prayer that he could just calm the fuck down and relax. His mind flashed back to the previous night and a larger blush covered his features. Oh. There was that.
He hoped Nobu didn't notice as he quickly turned away, putting the glasses up finally, waiting for his face to cool down. "I didn't expect to see you here..." Which was the truth, Nobu was the last person Rune expected to see. He wondered why he was here to begin with but that was a stupid question. He always came to tease the cat magi and Rune hated it mostly. But as of late, he had been looking forward to the fish's visits. He shook his head.
He had to get rid of that idea super fast. Feeling his face finally cool a bit, he turned to Nobu, leaning on the bar. "Can I get you a drink? Why are ya not at home, sleepin like the rest o' the city?" Rune inquired innocently, just small talk. Nothing but small talk. He could do this. He could totally....nope he felt his breath coming faster and bowed his head, leaning on his hands heavily as he willed his breathing to slow down.
This had to fuckin stop at some point in time.

And there was that ever-present blush. Such a cute little thing, even if its owner would have objected if he’d said so aloud. Shifting so he could hide a growing smirk behind his hand, Nobu continued to watch the other’s nervous cleaning and upturned eyes quietly, until he was spoken to again. Hadn’t expected to see him, had he? “No? Why is that?”Rune’s next pair of questions answered him well enough. “A drink would be nice, yes,” he answered first, nodding shortly. “Although maybe not quite as strong as what we were drinking during the festival, hm? I think my liver might thank you for it.” Flashing a grin, he winked. Then with a shrug he added, “I have slept enough for the time being… and besides that, perhaps I just wanted to see you again.” A smile punctuated the last statement, not quite as mischievous as usual. He had spoken truthfully, after all. The cat’s company was something he found he could enjoy, and not just because he was so horribly easy to tease and toy with. And after the events of the previous night… well. They might have a thing or two to talk about yet. Now the only question was whether or not to bring it up himself. He couldn’t very well send Rune running, now, but he had to wonder if the fire magi would be able to to broach the subject himself rather than avoid it. Maybe if he just gave him a gentle nudge or two in the right direction, they might get somewhere… “I’ll assume you made it home safely last night, considering you’re here in one piece, yes?”Rune Sabatier |

| The cat magi blinked, looking up at the fish's statement about him making it home safely. He nodded, remember the feel of the fish's lips on his own. He felt his face heat up again as he turned, making a tamer drink for Nobu quickly. He focused on his work, trying not to think about the previous night. They had had so much to drink, that had to be why right?
Rune knew he was lying to himself as he told himself it had just been the alcohol as he turned and set the drink in front of Nobu. His yellow eyes looked up and he gulped. Even the day after, the fish looked glorious and Rune felt his lips tingle briefly from memories. He blinked, realizing he was staring and moved to clean the already clean bar, his tail swishing behind him in nervousness.
Yes he had made it home in one piece, but sleep hadn't come easily, despite the amount of alcohol that had been in his system. He kept thinking about the fish and his smooth scales that had felt amazing under his hands. His face blushed as a particular thought of how good it would be to brush against those scales again.
He cleared his throat. He had kissed the fish and then ran. He had been surprised and confused and afraid of how the fish made him feel. He looked away from Nobu, taking a deep breath. "Ya, last night...." The cat hesitated. Should they talk about it? Maybe they could pretend it didn't happen. Rune moved around the bar to help a customer quickly.
Using the space to clear his head, the fire magi thought that possibly they should talk about last night. This, of course, would mean admitting everything that had happened. He gulped, pausing, his yellow eyes turning to the back of the fish magi.
Should they?
Should he?
Moving back, he couldn't help his tail flicking out and brushing against Nobu's back as he returned to behind the bar. He was blushing and looking at his hand. "I...we...we shouldn't talk about it here." He said, his voice coming out a little uneven.
Gods, was he just a stupid man after all? He sighed. "Maybe back in my office..." They had to ....Rune couldn't deny what had happened. He swallowed, opening the back door and waiting for Nobu. He could just...say that he didn't know what he was doing and had too much alcohol in him. Yeah, that was it. It would be ok.
He could get over this stupid attraction.

Rune’s hesitation was easy enough to catch, considering it was far from the most subtle reaction. But he’d gotten the fire magi thinking about the night before, at least, and he could be satisfied with that start. Quietly sipping the drink set before him, Nobu let the man think it over for a while, following him with his eyes all the while. A customer was seen to, silence stretched… then, at long last, the nervous cat spoke to him again. They shouldn’t talk about it here, he said. A much better reply than “I don’t want to talk about it at all”, to be sure. Nobu smiled faintly, in a manner far more gentle than the other might be used to seeing, and nodded when another location was suggested. “If you’d like to speak there, yes.” Taking his drink with him, the water magi slipped out of his seat and followed Rune away from the bar and into the familiar little office at the back of the building. Slipping past him, Nobu meandered over to the desk sitting near the center of the space, and took up a post leaning against its nearest edge before settling his gaze on the other magi once more. Once the door was shut behind the two of them, he would speak. “So,” Nobu began carefully, watching Rune for any sign of too much uncertainty, “Last night was an interesting one, hm?” He smiled gently. “I think it might have been the first time I’ve seen you enjoying yourself so much.”Rune Sabatier |

| The cat magi watched Nobu move into the office and lean on the desk with ease. His yellow eyes were cautious as he leaned against the wall, his ears perking up from the water magi's words. He looked down as he crossed his arms then back up again, his eyes taking in the man before him. His silver hair and deep blue eyes, the scales on his arms. There it was. The blush.
Especially thinking about the kiss they had shared the previous night. He reaching up, scratching his head and pushing some hair out of his face nervously. What was he supposed to say? Yes it had been an interesting night. Yes he had kissed the fish, practically forced himself onto him, and then ran away.
Rune swallowed. He had enjoyed himself with the fish immensely last night. He sucked in a breath. The silence stretched for a couple more moments, Rune closed his eyes briefly before opening them.
Yes. He had enjoyed himself. But. It had been a mistake. It couldn't happen again.
"Nobu...." His gut twisted. Why did this feel wrong? It was right to admit it was a mistake. It was right to admit what they did was wrong...wasn't it? He was so confused and he ran a hand through his hair again, his tail twitching. "It was fun..yes. But... it was... we can't do it again, mate. That...at the end of the..." His words were drying up. He just wanted to move closer to the fish. No.
He had to be strong. "It was a mistake. Just the alcohol." A nervous, very unbelievable chuckle left him. "Ya know how it is, mate. When ya have too much o' the drink." He looked away, absently straightening some papers on a filing cabinet next to him.
Yes that was it. The alcohol. There was nothing more too it. They were just drunk. Rune was satisfied with this explanation and he tried to ignore the twinge and twisting feeling in his gut that said it had been more than just the alcohol.

Here comes a killer whale
Though far from oblivious to the look Rune was giving him, the lion fish magi certainly acted like he was, pretending to take in various features of the office space instead. He’d let him have whatever time he needed to think and consider what to do— for it was quite certain he’d need as much time as he could get for the discussion ahead. It was only when the feline magi spoke again that Nobu glanced his way, raising a curious brow as he listened.
However, his expression quickly morphed into a frown the longer Rune spoke, going on nervously about the events of the previous night. They couldn’t do something like that again, could they? “Hm… and why ever not?” Nobu asked, tilting his head. The fire magi blamed the alcohol, and poor judgment. Somehow, he found himself less than convinced by that argument, and not just because of the way the cat couldn’t look at him as he said it.
“Oh, I don’t think it was much of a mistake at all,” he replied, shrugging. “Alcohol can convince people to do a good number of things, but in my experience, kissing someone you are not at all attracted to is not among them. No…” Pushing off of the desk, Nobu began to move toward the other magi, for once perfectly serious in demeanor. “I think you very much wanted that kiss.” Stopping just before Rune, he leaned in and added, murmuring, “And to be honest, so did I. Very much so~”  | out of character | Muse | |

| Reaching up, the cat magi ran a hand through his hair once again, nervously. He had no idea how the water magi was going to take what he had just said. The blatant lies he had just told. But they weren't lies. Right? They had to be the truth. It was just the alcohol, the music, the lights. It was the couples that had been dancing intimately around them. This was the explanation that made the most sense to the cat and his yellow eyes widened as Nobu pushed off the desk.
It wasn't a mistake? His tail ceased in moving as the fish got closer to him. Nobu kept speaking and Rune blinked, shaking his head. No. He was wrong. He didn't want the kiss. But...he had. No! It wasn't like that. A mistake. That's what it was. Rune's brain froze.
Nobu wanted it, too?
The fire magi's brain was trying to process and before he knew it, Nobu had leaned in a bit to him to murmur. He was so close. He wanted the kiss. Had Rune really wanted it? Nobu's explanation made as much sense as his did. You didn't go around kissing people you didn't want to kiss.
But Rune couldn't have wanted that kiss. He couldn't have. Why had they danced? Why had he allowed that atmosphere to be allowed? Rune thought back, his panicked eyes looking up. He had initiated the dance..the kiss. NO! This was wrong. Rune shook his head, resisting the urge to reach out and touch Nobu's long silver hair. "..n..No...I couldn't have...We..." His breath was coming faster as his face turned red.
What was happening? His heart was racing as he struggled to catch a breath, his vision darkening around the edges. He couldn't have wanted this. The kiss. The attraction. His fathers voice echoed in his head as the world spun, going dark as Rune pitched forward into Nobu, unconsciousness claiming him.

Here comes a killer whale
Wide eyes, deep blush, an almost panicked expression… These things were all to be expected, at this point, and they were exactly what Nobu found as he spoke to Rune. There was more too, of course. A nervous tic, a sense of confusion… The lion fish magi took it all in, perhaps enjoying the sight, perhaps working to determine how to change it toward his favor. To anyone on the outside, it would be hard to tell, but if nothing else, he had meant what he’d said. Though their drinking may have helped spur the act on, he had wanted and enjoyed the brief kiss they’d shared the night before. And if he could get more, that would be even better.
However, that seemed to be a bit easier said than done. Rune was still resisting, still denying what they both knew to be true. He needed more work, more gentle nudging in the proper direction and— Nobu blinked. The fire magi was swaying, and breathing far too quickly than could possibly be good for him. Almost in slow motion, he watched those liquid-gold eyes roll back in the other’s skull and then shut, and his swaying body pitched forward.
Acting quickly, Nobu caught the now-limp form of his companion before he could hit the ground, stumbling a little under his weight before he was able to catch himself. Apparently, the poor feline had hyperventilated. Now, this was a predicament, wasn’t it? Frowning faintly, the water magi moved the unconscious Rune to the nearest chair, propping him up carefully so he wouldn’t fall off, and took up a seat on top of his desk to wait until the other woke up again. | out of character | Muse | |

| There was blackness all around. His feet were bare and the texture of the ground felt cool and smooth like tile. Turning slowly around, all the cat magi could see was blackness. Blackness everywhere. There were no visible structures, and it felt like more than just blackness. It felt like emptiness.
A shout was heard from behind him, causing Rune to whirl around. There was nothing there. But you could feel the anger from the entity that lurked behind the darkness as suddenly the angry voice got louder. Rune turned, running in the opposite direction, the feeling of being chased strong as his tail flicked back and forth quickly with his pace.
Soon the angry voice grew dim and there was silence again. Slowing, Rune stopped. In front of him was a blue beam of light. He blinked as he moved closer, the light practically blinding. He moved closer and the light took a form.
A very familiar form. It reached out his hand, a familiar smirk and deep ocean blue eyes staring at him. "Rune~~" He had the same lilt in his voice. Rune blinked, taking a step back. This caused the face in front of him to fall slightly but the hand stayed reached out. Should he take it? "Nobu..." He said the voice softly, reaching out and taking his hand...
Blinking, Rune was staring at a ceiling. In his office. What had happened? What a strange dream...
He groaned slightly as he moved a hand up to his head, blinking again as he looked around the room. When his yellow eyes caught sight of Nobu he started, leaning back. "What...what the fuck...why are you here?" He blushed, thinking about the dream. He slowly stood up, reaching for the bottle of rum on his desk, and taking a long swig, looking back at Nobu, waiting for him to answer.

Here comes a killer whale
The wait was fortunately not a long one, although to Nobu it still dragged quite a bit. All told, this was not how he had hoped their encounter would go, and he quietly hoped that it was not too late to salvage things. It would be quite the shame if things ended poorly here. But as impatient as he was to ensure things went well enough from that point, there was little he could do to speed up the process. So he waited.
After some time, a murmur from Rune that sounded suspiciously like his own name drew the water magi from whatever thoughts had come to occupy him, and he looked over to find that the feline seemed to be rousing himself once more. Pleased by this, Nobu allowed himself a small smile as the other blinked up at him, followed by a chuckle when he spoke. “You invited me here, Rune,” he said in return, tilting his head as he watched the cat rise and snatch up his bottle of liquor. “Don’t you remember~?”
Humming, he crossed his legs and spoke on after a moment or so of quiet. “I’ll assume you’re feeling better now, if you have the strength to handle a good drink. Did you have sweet dreams?” Nobu looked idly about the room while he waited for an answer, certain it would be just as halting and anxious as the others. “Well, anyway…” Deep blue eyes fell back on Rune, staring at him pointedly. “As I was about to tell you… it was quite clear that the both of us were rather invested in last night’s little tryst, so what is it exactly that’s the problem?” | out of character | Muse | |

| Rune frowned slightly at the question. Sweet dreams? Was Nobu insane? He looked down. He had had a dream. Was it sweet? Or forboding? The cat magi couldn't tell. He just knew that it had unsettled some part of himself. Rune looked up at Nobu. Was it really Nobu he had seen in his dream? His yellow eyes slid close as he took a large gulp then leaned on the desk. It had been. He had taken the other mans hand. The thought caused his cheeks to turn red.
As Nobu continued talking, and ending with the question about what the problem was since they had both been invested in the tryst. Tryst? Rune blinked, the thoughts of what had happened coming back to him before he had passed out. Nobu saying how he had wanted that kiss to happen. Rune felt his heart speed up a little bit as he looked back at Nobu.
That was what had caused him to pass out. And now the fish was asking what the problem was with how they felt. How he had felt. Rune blushed. He had thought about the kiss. Imagined it. The taste of Nobu.
It was wrong. What was he doing? He shouldn't be thinking about it. Without thinking Rune had moved closer to Nobu and he put his bottle down. Was it wrong? Was an attraction this strong wrong? Yes. But.... Rune was so unsure. His fathers voice was in his head and he stumbled over trying to figure out what to say. "Its....it isn't you. The problem.." Why couldn't he voice it.
He looked up and his yellow eyes were entranced as they met ocean blue ones. His hand reaching out, brushing against the others hand. There it was. The spark. A slight tingle that went from the point of contact up to his shoulder and across his chest. It was something that didn't exist in his life. Rune took in a deep breath.
"I can't explain...it just..there is something wrong with this..." His words had lost their conviction as his fingers moved to thread through Nobu's fingers, enjoying the feel of his warm skin. His body told a completely different story than his words, which had been filled with awe and wonder as his eyes looked down to their hands. "But...this... how can there be something so wrong with something that feels...like this..." Rune mumbled, his yellow eyes flicking back up to Nobu's.

Here comes a killer whale
Whether it was a conscious action or not, that Rune had gradually moved closer the lion fish magi chose to take as a good sign. He stayed still himself, however, and would do so until he had a clearer idea of whether the cat was going to flee again. From his place against the desk, he would watch mutely while the other paced, and drank, and thought, allowing him as much time as ever.
Then, there he was, leaning against the desk with him, and watching with those lovely yellow eyes. Putting on a gentle smile, Nobu waited while Rune struggled to find his words, flicking a bit of hair from his face in the meantime. Something warm brushed against his hand, and he glanced down to find dun fingers interlacing tentatively with his own. The smile broadened, but only a little. Despite all that had happened, and all that had been said between them, the fire magi was still using that word. “Wrong”.
But perhaps today they could finally change that. “Hm…” Tightening his grip on the other’s hand a little, Nobu pushed himself up off the desk to circle around in front of Rune, and would effectively corner him unless he tried to escape. If not, he would move in until their bodies were just barely separated, bringing up his other hand to catch the feline magi by the chin if he was allowed. “I’ve told you before, Rune, and I will say it again. There is nothing wrong with this, and you have nothing to be afraid of with me. Understand?” | out of character | Muse | |

| Unbelieving yellow eyes, filled with nervousness as well, were locked on Nobu as the water magi circled around, effectively trapping him against the desk. His ears twitched as his cheeks colored slightly as his counterparts hand reached up, taking his chin. His lips parted slightly as a small whoosh of air escaped. Was this happening? Was Nobu in front of him? He was frozen, his eyes taking in Nobu's face. His eyes. His cheeks. His long hair.
His lips.
Lips that he had touched only the night previously. A gulp sounded as his eyes stayed locked on the lips that moved, detailing how much this wasn't wrong. How much he didn't have to fear.
Did he really not have anything to fear?
That what they were doing was ok? It wasn't wrong? It was just...
They were so close. Rune felt his heart speed up as he bathed in the warmth of their bodies. He was pressed back against the desk. There was the man who told him it was okay.
This was okay.
Rune's eyes grew pained as he reached up, his hand tentatively reaching up and resting on Nobu's bicep. It was warm. His long fingers brushed over the skin.
How could something that made him feel light and heavy at the same time...how could it be wrong? Yellow eyes blinked as he felt his heart almost stop in his chest. It was like the whole world disappeared.
It was just them.
Like slow motion, Rune watched his hand move up, tentatively touching Nobu's long silver hair. It was soft. He hadn't been expecting that. What was he expecting then? He couldn't speak, barely. He could just stare at Nobu.
It was like a switch had slowly clicked in his head. His fathers voice in his head quieted and he just...felt. The warmth that Nobu filled him with. Everything felt so silent as he pushed up off the desk to bring their bodies touching each other.
This man in front of him was attracted to him. He had pursued him. Without fear. Runes breathing was slightly heavier.
And he was attracted to him. The long silver hair. The deep blue eyes. The way he smirked. That stupid way he annoyed him.
Everything about this man was attractive. The thin but firm muscles of his arm that he felt right now. He...
Rune blinked, sucking in a breath.
Thump...thump... His heart was beating as he reached up, his rough hand from years of work touching Nobu's face gently. How was he supposed to say it. He had never felt like this before.
Thump..thump...thump...
"Nobu...I...fuck..." His words were tangled. He had to say it. He couldn't say it. He blushed. He wasn't good at this. Rune had never felt so unsure of himself as he took in a breath. The world was still.
"You...are....I..." JUST SAY IT YOU SHITE CAT! He took a deep breath as he leaned in. He couldn't say it..not yet. But... Rune licked his own lips slightly as he moved in. If Nobu allowed it, he would press his lips against the fish magi's in a gentle and unsure kiss.
One he actually wanted.
It was like fire starting in his soul. The feeling of rightness was there.
It was right and perfect.
Breaking it, his unsure yellow eyes looked at ocean blue ones.
"Nobu..." His voice breathed the name that had haunted his thoughts for the last few weeks. It was like heaven on his tongue.
