Kylar sighed. "Guess my attempt at humour failed miserably." He said with a smile. "Ah well, always must find a new way to make people laugh." He bounced back frm the humour failure pretty quickly.

@Kylar:
He felt his face heating up again and snorted in embarrassment. "No, I just failed to realize you were joking." The subject didn't help either.

"I've noticed we make each other embarrased a lot. Some how I have the feeling we are destined to be good friends," Kylar replied with a smile. "Which is good, because I could do with someone's company besides my own sometimes."

@Kylar:
Toukan snickered. "I know I don't usually lose my cool this much around anyone. Don't know if that supports your theory or not...but you can never have too many friends."

"Maybe you're just attracted to me!" Kylar laughed, hoping that the boy wouldn't be offended by that, he seemed to blush more when the subject of being gay came up. Kylar wondered if the other stag was secretly gay. That would explain it, but he wasn't sure.

"Ooh, counting, I believe you do like my company," Kylar continued the joke. "The blush gives it all away." Kylar nuzzled the boy somewhat happily. "Haha~ I suppose I should stop teasing you." He added with a sigh.

"I doubt it, though I could but try," Kylar responded with a chuckle, turning his head upwards, giving Toukan a profile view of his handsome masked face. The mask shifted slightly. Kylar nudged it off with his hoof, revealing the small yellow marks around his beauiful shining blue eyes. "Sometimes that mask bothers me so." He said, to avoid causing any confusion.

that picture is so kyooot, as one ofmy dear friends would say.

"Even I fail to realise why you're still blushing," Kylar said, his face confused, before a look of teasing "got-it" came over it. "Unless of course, you like the look of my face that much!~" He added teasingly. "And of course I am~" He answered the question.

[[It''s kyoot. Bunnydeer!]]

Dark understood. "Hnn..." he grunts, mentally piecing together what to say. "Perhaps that is... better than having... prior experience. Less emotional... baggage. In a sense... you are pure, then." he comments, considering how 'experienced' deer or people alike could feel guilty or something when thinking about their background in love, especially when they finally find the right opposite. He himself couldn't say much on that topic, having similarly loved Laghodessa first and foremost. "From how she acts... she may be much the same." he adds. The old bull looks thoughtfully at the water with two eyes. He isn't entirely sure how to further advise Bastilion unless asked on what should be done, though at this point he'd suggest for Bast to remain being himself around her, and do what he feels he should.

@Dark:
Unsure how to respond, he remained silent for the moment, contemplating Darkweaver's words.

[[I can't seem to think of how else this should go. Bast seems to get how he feels now at least, so maybe this is the conclusion? |D]]

@Kylar:


[[This took longer than it should have, because I had no clue how to describe Toukan's reaction. I couldn't think of anything past him looking shocked. I had to draw the expression instead.]]

@Kylar:
Now Toukan just looked really embarrassed for reacting the way he had. He looked away, clearing his throat as he tried to fight off the extreme blush.
"..sounded pretty serious to me..." he almost mumbled, feeling awkward now.

@Kylar:
Did he? Toukan wasn't going to answer that out loud - mostly because he wasn't sure. But he was pretty sure he was being teased again.

He smirked in return. "Sure it's not you who wants to kiss me? You're the one who brought it up after all."

He noticed Kylar was still blushing too, and rolled his eyes. "Wonder if there's a record for blushing or something. We probably broke it," he laughed.

@Kylar:
Toukan's brow raised suspiciously at Kylar's sudden evil grin. It stayed raised as the reindeer watched curiously, eyes starting to widen when---
...
O...kay then.

Stunned would be an accurate description here...
...
Who knew that much red could show through fur?

...what just happened...?...

@Kylar:
I really should ask Suiren if there is a record for that. She could probably Google it. ...but then she'd ask why I wanna know. ...shimatta... Despite sort of "blanking out" before, that thought managed to develop quite clearly.
Along with another thought that went, He stole my first kiss!
That thought would've brought on a fresh wave of blushing had he not basically reached his limit of redness already.

"Not exactly something I advertise..." was all he answered with, keeping his eyes diverted. This statement had been said out loud, but "out loud" was a bit inaccurate. He'd basically mumbled it. His preference really wasn't something he usually gave out. Not unless he really needed to, or he was close enough friends with someone.

So far, the list of people could be counted on one hand. ...if he had hands right now that is.

@Kylar:
Toukan could understand that. But...

"I haven't even done 'worse things'..." he admitted, reviving the blush that had started to fade before. He'd basically admitted he was a virgin. That was another thing he tended not to advertise.

"But don't think I'm mad or even annoyed or anything," he continued, shaking his head a few times. "It's not like you knew after all. Just...caught me off guard is all," the reindeer said with a bit of a laugh.

@Kylar:
That was an awkward question to answer... But wait; Toukan could answer both without really answering...

"I'm sure my reaction answers both of your questions," he shot back with a raised a brow.

@Kylar:
Toukan blinked. How was he supposed to answer that? "It's not like I have anything to compare it to though..." Because kisses on the cheek from someone you considered to be like your sister didn't count.

But that wasn't a good answer. It wasn't an answer at all. Again, how was he supposed to answer that?
...
Wait.
"My mind did stop for a second..." He blushed again from admitting that.

@Kylar:
"Well, guess I won't be annoyed that you stole my first kiss, then," Toukan joked.

@Kylar:
Toukan raised a brow at that. "I think there's been enough record-breaking blushing today."

He hadn't noticed that Kylar had stayed that close before, but now that he'd moved away, the reindeer's face was going back to a more normal color.

[[Anyone you prefer me to use? I have trouble deciding. |D; ]]

[[I feel so out of practice. |D]]

It was unusual for Amary to be sad, but this was one of those rare times. Right now she didn't really feel like doing much, preferring to simply by a mushroom circle, the spot she had last seen her friend. The last time she would ever see him. This kind of grief was new to her, and she didn't know what to do.
She thought of her closest friends. Bastilion, Kaoori, Priest, Darkweaver...If only one of them was here. Any friend would do, really. Just having someone near would be comforting.
She sighed sadly as she lay her head on the ground.

((such a lame entrance X3; But I wanted to do something. Bast will have to find her))

@Paz:
There was a low groan as the brown stag stretched after his long sleep. Bastilion's times of rest seemed to be longer every time. He would have to remedy this...
Shaking the last remnants of sleep from his head, the stag listened to the sounds of the Forest, picking out where familiar deer may be. At once, he caught sense of someone in particular that he was always happy to find. He set off in her direction, not traveling too quickly, lest he appear too eager and overwhelming.

Bastilion did not have to go far before his "target" was in sight...but...
He slowed to a stop, brow creasing.
This was not normal. Amary rarely appeared to be anything less than cheerful, but now..."downright depressed" was the best description he could think of.

He cast his gaze around curiously before setting it back upon the doe before him, taking a few more steps at a much slower pace, and settling to a stop much closer. "Amary..?" The almost-greeting came out as a question, as if to ask what, if anything, was troubling her.

[[Where the heck does this writing style I use for him come from? I still haven't figured it out. |D]]

[[No problem, please feel free to take your time on replies.]]

Quad bowed politely. "Kinsha, it's so good to see a familiar face!", he said, his cheeks puffing slightly as he smiled to the other deer. For a second there, he thought he was being stalked.

The antelope studied Kinsha's awkward stance for a moment. He shrugged it off, Kinsha is Kinsha..., he thought to himself. "I haven't seen you in a while. What have you been up to? Ninja stuff?", he asked the other deer, stressing the word 'ninja' humorously.
